Chapter 1242: Survival First

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Whoosh, whoosh~”

All the spears had disappeared into the ground. Thanks to Holy Princess and the twig, he could be healed. A surge of green energy entered his body to help him recover.

“Hiss!”

Lu Li closed his eyes. He was trembling from the sharp pain. That was a fatal moment for him. If he had not reacted quickly, or if the Slayer’s move had not been powerful enough to smash away several spears, he would have lost his life.

“His move is special...”

A disciple from the Pavilion of Misty Drizzle mumbled. Many people looked at Lu Li curiously because they could all tell that when Lu Li used this move, the force around them was leveraged.

“Interesting.”

Lou Shi’er threw Lu Li a glance as he stroke his curly hair. Ling Feidu and Holy Princess cast their glances toward Lu Li but did not pay much attention.

In the Divinity, the number of varied Fundamental Principles and moves was large. Nobody here recognized this as the famous Slayer’s move.

The Slayer had been gone for many years. The younger generation probably had only heard the name but knew next to nothing about the power of the Slayer and his move, not to mention recognizing it.

Lu Li’s ability to survive in such a perilous situation knocked the socks off the others. They were inspired as well because they had realized that even in such a fatal situation, if one reacted fast enough, they still had a chance to survive.

Moving on!

Lucky began to run out for the people after Lu Li. An hour later, they had crossed about two miles but 17 had passed away and over a dozen were wounded.

The wounded would be fine because they could be cured with the help of Holy Princess. There was one person that was at the gate of death, but in the time for two incense sticks to burn, he was brought back to life.

The power of the Fundamental Principle of Life impressed everyone.

During this time, Lu Li took over a dozen turns. He was fortunate and was in harm’s way. That being said, one person in his group was blasted to death, leaving his group down to four people. As such, the odds of each of them being struck would be bigger.

“Blood Fairy, how is it going?”

Seeing that it was going to be his turn again, Lu Li was losing patience. Blood Fairy had been observing for a long time without giving any replies. Was the Inhibition Formation here unsolvable?

“Boom!”

To the left, another person was blasted to death by a black light column. Noticing what induced the strike, Holy Princess didn’t even bother to use her twig. Anyone that was struck by the black light column and the purple lightning bolt would lose their lives for sure without exception.

Blood Fairy’s voice sounded in his mind. “Master, I have some solution, but I cannot guarantee perfect safety for you. So far, only so many Inhibition Formations have been triggered. There are hundreds of them underground, and they are too complicated.”

“Well, as long as you are trying!” Lu Li responded. “Now, it’s my turn to go. Which slab should I choose?’

Blood Fairy kept silent for a moment before she said, “The one on the left. I am sure that only flames will come out there, and they will not burn you to death given your abilities.”

“Flames? Are you sure?”

Lu Li asked. Hearing an answer of confirmation, he stepped on that slab. A ball of blue flames burst out from below. He tried his best to stand up against the pain. From behind him, Holy Princess hurled over the twig.

The flames disappeared soon. Smoke rose from Lu Li’s body. His skin was burnt, and he lost half of his white hair. Luckily, he had the Dragon Armor to protect him. Otherwise, his robe would be burnt, and he would be embarrassingly naked.

“That is comfortable~”

As the twig entwined him and the special energy surged into his body, the burning pain on his skin faded away. He felt he had been elevated from hell to heaven. He could not help but exclaim at the miraculous powers of the Fundamental Principle of Life.

“Thank you, Holy Princess!”

When he was almost recovered, Lu Li clasped his hands and expressed his gratitude to Holy Princess. She was the one offering help to treat the wounded. At the end of the day, all of them must be grateful.

Holy Princess kept a straight face and said nothing. She didn’t even nod. Whether from the outside or on the inside, she was cold and detached.

“Boom!”

A person to the left of Lu Li stepped forward but was killed all of a sudden, which caught the others’ attention. A moment later, another person stepped to a slab on the side but lost his life to a bolt of purple lightning. Another soul was sacrificed.

The other two people in this group were too afraid to move on. Their eyes were filled with terror. The other groups stopped as well. Two people had died in a row. There weren’t enough people left to finish the path...

“Get into three groups and keep moving!”

Ling Feidu said abruptly. Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess nodded in agreement.

Too many people had died. If they continued in such small groups, the ones with few people such as Lu Li’s and Lin Yu’s could be completely annihilated.

If all of those immortals died, nobody could explore the way, and the disciples of the three major sects would have to take over the job themselves.

Therefore, while the three groups could possibly never find a working path, and it was likely that all the efforts could go futile, there was no other option.

At the very beginning, including Lu Li, there were over sixty people in the crowd. Currently, less than forty were left. The three groups would stagger their paths and try to meet at intersections as they took turns. Everyone would have to make a choice after a dozen others had stepped forward. In this way, the chances of survival for each individual seemed to be higher.

The groups pressed on. However, two unfortunate souls lost their lives when they crossed paths. One of them was cut in half and another was blasted to death by the black light column.

Lu Li was in a group of 13. One slab could not hold them all. They had to stand on different slabs and move on one by one.

Lu Li stood there silently while Blood Fairy kept on studying. The three groups advanced slowly with each person trying one slab at each turn. The disciples of the three major sects were in three teams as well, following the three groups each. Everyone was patient. After all, decisions that were made in a hurry could increase the chance of death.

Each group had over a dozen warriors, and they took turns. The Inhibition Formations were triggered less frequently. However, as they were moving into the depth of the corridor, more Inhibition Formations were likely to be triggered.

“The slab on your right!”

Again, it was Lu Li’s turn. Blood Fairy said with certainty. Lu Li stepped on the right slab with determination. Soon, he was seized with joy. It was safe.

Blood Fairy seemed to have partially mastered the Inhibition Formations in the corridor. At the very least, she could tell which slabs would not trigger the more powerful Inhibition Formations.

“Boom, boom, boom~”

Moving on, more and more were either killed or wounded. The population of the three groups was decreasing. In an hour, they had crossed another four miles, but they had lost half of their people.

“Gather around the group in the middle. We will stay together!”

Ling Feidu gave a resolute order. The end of the corridor was nowhere within sight. Nobody could tell how much longer they had to travel, but there were less than 20 people left. They could not afford to split up again.

The light in the eyes of the remaining 20 people had dimmed down, in its place were frustration and desperation. There was no end in sight nor hope. They might all be gone before they reached the end.

Lu Li appeared to be as upset as the others, but on the inside, he was less nervous.

He had taken over a dozen turns. Each time, he would end up safe under the guidance of Blood Fairy, which had boosted his confidence!

Of course!

He would not be so stupid as to tell others how he did this. He knew none in this crowd here. He would not expose his secrets to a group of strangers. If others became envious of him, he could lose his life before knowing...

He must protect his own life first.
