The Invincible Dragon Emperor-Chapter 1237 - Eight Major Sects
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It had been half a day and yet there was no sign that the actual entrance to the Tomb of King Luna was going to open. Over four to five thousand people had come to the hall and more were still coming in.
Many warriors were from other forces, big or small, other than the eight major sects. Some forces had a team of over one hundred while others had teams of dozens. The hall was crowded with people.
Eavesdropping for a long time, Lu Li did obtain much information. The eight major sects were the Palace of Snow Mountain, Pavilion of Misty Drizzle, Cabinet of Cloud, Palace of Terror, Hall of Orientation, Temple of Five Elements, Sect of Yin, and Hall of Infinity.
Those were eight of the major sects. By sheer luck, Lu Li was experiencing a gathering of the talented young generation of southern Divinity. He didn’t know whether he should call this good luck… or bad luck.
The eight sects had all sent out the most talented in their young generation. The boys had an impressive presence and the girls had inspiring looks. They were just like angels and fairies as told in stories.
Those from the eight major sects were arrogant. They seldom discussed with people outside their circles. Some would come up and try to exchange pleasantries. Lu Li saw that those from the eight sects would only respond in an indifferent way. At the very best, they would say a few polite words, quite unapproachable.
On the contrary, within the circle, the ones from eight major sects were nice to each other. Disciples from the other seven sects would greet and chat with the ones from the Palace of Snow Mountain since they were all quite stunning.
Almost all the best of the young masters from the major sects had sent their regards to the Holy Princess from the Palace of Snow Mountain. Lu Li looked at the Holy Princess secretly. She was breathtakingly beautiful. She was almost perfect but for the fact that she was kind of distant to people. She was the kind of lady that would make a man want to approach, and at the same time make his heart beat fast and sweat in tension…
Lu Li was not interested in pursuing beautiful ladies!
Lu Li had shut down his heart. His death would only come faster if he were obsessed with carnal pleasure in the dangerous place that was the Divinity.
Also…
Lu Li, to the disciples of those major sects, was like fireflies to the moon. Lu Li would not bring himself to humiliation or bark at the moon.
All he desired was to stay alive, to go to the Swords Mountain and find Lu Ling. Nothing else would intrigue him.
Lu Li turned away from the disciples of the eight major sects. He would just listen for information related to the Tomb of King Luna. He must gather more information so that he could stay alive here.
Half a day later, he had obtained more information. He was not sure that it was useful but he memorized it nonetheless.
“Buzzing~”
Two hours later, the entire hall suddenly lit up. Even the ground was giving off a faint glow. The hall was instantly filled with bustle and hustle. The ones sat on the ground stood up at once. Clearly, the Tomb of King Luna was about to open and nobody wanted to lag behind.
Lu Li was in no hurry. He did not want to fight for treasures, just to leave the Tomb of King Luna safely. He looked around to find the most suitable group to follow.
To go with the strongest group would make his trip safer. They would clear out all the dangers while he just had to follow them to the exit.
“Buzzing~”
Some glowing lines climbed on the walls, moving about until they formed 10 halos.
The halos were more and more glaring till the wall inside the circles vanished and 10 huge, dark holes appeared. Lu Li used psychic power to check, only to find that he could see nothing but darkness.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~”
Thousands of people swarmed over and chose a door to rush in, afraid that others would gain the upper hand and took away all the treasures.
To Lu Li’s surprise, the ones from the eight major sects did not move. Instead, they stood there and let others rush in first.
Lu Li stayed in the corner. He was waiting for the group of eight major sects to start. He planned to… follow the eight major sects because they presented the strongest force!
Soon, half of the thousands left. Still, the ones from the eight major sects did not set off. After the majority was gone, two of the sects began to move. They seemed to be from the Sect of Ying and Hall of Infinity. The ones from the two sects came together and stepped into the door on the right.
Another group of people began to leave as well. They walked into the door in the middle. As a matter of fact, the remaining six sects were in two groups. Those from the Palace of Snow Mountain, Cabinet of Cloud and Pavilion of Misty Drizzle stayed in one group and went to the second door on the left.
“Well. I just might as well follow them. Three are immortals on the list. They should constitute the strongest force!”
Lu Li nodded to himself. He had heard that the Holy Princess of the Palace of Snow Mountain, Ling Feixu from Cabinet of Cloud and Lou Shi’er from the Pavilion of Misty Drizzle were all on the list.
Evidently, they were the strongest disciples in their respective sects. They must be equipped with many treasures. Their abilities must be impressive.
Of course, Lu Li did not follow them in at once. Rather, he waited for the time for half an incense stick to burn. After more people left, he finally stood up and walked to the second door on the left.
“Buzzing~”
As soon as Lu Li stepped in, he was surrounded by a white glare. As he had expected, there was a Teleportation Formation. He was sent to a wasteland as if he had been sent out from the Tomb of King Luna.
“Move!”
Lu Li looked around and saw some footprints. He followed the trace. He had made up his mind that he would not go after any treasures in here. He would just follow the footsteps to the exit.
Same to the outside world, flying was prohibited here. With so many footprints, it was easier for Lu Li to track.
While he walked on, he checked the surroundings. Making sure that nobody was around, he secretly took out the Wicked Bead. He resumed his trip upon making sure that the Wicked Bead could be used and the immortal’s body, warlord skeleton, and the Deaf Taoist could be sent out.
“Boom, boom, boom~”
An hour later, Lu Li heard some loud noises coming from ahead of him. He seemed to see that a fight was breaking out in a place dozens of miles away from him.
“Thought so…”
Lu Li nodded to himself. This Tomb of King Luna was loaded with danger. Judging by the state of the fight, Lu Li believed that the Tomb of King Luna was quite perilous. He felt fortunate that he followed a group instead of wandering around by himself.
He did not move in too close. He snuck over and hid behind a hill to observe.
It was the group of the three major sects. They were fighting against a herd of wild beasts with an unfair number. All were ground-level wild beasts. In total, the number of disciples from the three sects amounted to over one hundred. They should be able to defeat twenty-some wild beasts.
Since Lu Li could not go over, he did not see clearly when observing from the distance. He could see the wild beasts being slayed and falling to the ground one by one.
“That Ling Feidu is good!”
Lu Li could recognize him after a fashion. The latter was holding a halberd. Ling Feixu could fight against one wild beast all by himself. It seemed that in a few blows, the wild beast would be smashed away and die.
“So many valuable weapons!”
Lu Li could see they were using a different variety of weapons to deal with the wild beasts. However, given the distance, Lu Li could not see clearly. Those super forces were so resourceful. In a moment, the over twenty wild beasts had been wiped out.
“Move!”
Lu Li followed them. This was his plan for this trip. He wondered if this could get him out of the Tomb of King Luna safely.
