Chapter 532: A Trap
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
Everyone would experience times of exhaustion, no matter how powerful one was. In constant fights, Xuan Energy, physical strength and spirit would all wear down.
Higher realms meant stronger abilities. Theoretically speaking, no matter how many Noble Lord Realm warriors were trying to fight against a Human Sovereign Realm warrior, the Human Sovereign Realm warrior would prevail. But the truth was, if the Human Sovereign Realm warrior could not break out from the encirclement when fought with tens of thousands of Noble Lord Realm warriors, the Human Sovereign Realm warrior would be slayed in the end.
Similarly!
If Lu Li tried to break out from the encirclement, the few thousand Asmodians would not be able to kill him. On the other hand, if he kept fighting like this, he might die here eventually.
The reason was that his strongest means was his soul attacks, which would consume a great deal of energy and spirit. Once he was mentally exhausted, his reaction would slow down and his defense will be weak. He would die should he be stabbed by a toxic spear.
Lu Li understood this perfectly. He had made several attempts to break free from the encirclement but the Asmodians were not afraid of death and they were fast, which had denied Lu Li a chance to break out or to release clones to run away.
Lu Li realized that he had underestimated the Asmodians!
Asmodians truly deserved to be the most sinister, crafty and cruelest race. They knew how to cooperate well. What was more, some Asmodians had the ability to go through space and come and leave without leaving a shadow or a trace. Lu Li could be hurt if careless.
He was afraid to be away from Little White now, without whom he could not protect himself against the toxic matters coming out from the Asmodians. He also needed Little White to shield him from arrows shot from hiding.
The foot of the mountain had turned into hell. In less than two hours, more than 700 Asmodians deceased. Lu Li had hacked with his saber for so many times that his hands were getting numb.
Lu Li felt that his soul began to weaken. He had consumed too much energy by constantly releasing soul attacks. He even appeared to be paler.
“I have to break free now!”
Lu Li had been too confident of his abilities and thought that he could beat thousand enemies by himself. At the moment, he finally came to the realization that his realm was so low that it could not sustain him in long-term battles. He might be able to kill 1000 Asmodians at this rate, but he would die here in the end.
“Swish, swish~”
From the left, the space trembled. Out of instinct, Lu Li reached out his Blood Claw and crushed the head of an Asmodian that was trying to sneak up on him. He looked around and saw endless Asmodians crowding together.
More importantly, the Asmodians on the outer circle were moving around and they could make up for weak points at any time. They would go wherever Lu Li was trying to break out from. Clearly, Naka planned to risk thousand Asmodians’ lives to take Lu Li’s.
“Naka?”
Lu Li squinted. Then after a roar, he generated dozens clones which stalled the enemies around him for the time for one breath. Taking the chance, he made a ferocious dash toward Naka.
Destroy the leader and the gang would collapse!
The Asmodians would escape in disorder as soon as Naka was killed. After that, it would be easier. Lu Li could run away or kill his way back.
“Bang, bang, bang~”
Lu Li’s soul attacks trapped the more than 10 Asmodians in front of him. He swept across with his divine weapon of Dragon King and those Asmodians were all smacked away, knocking over other Asmodians as well.
“Nice!”
Lu Li yelled. He span his Fate Wheel and charged toward Naka at the top of his speed.
“Eh?”
To his surprise, Naka didn’t run and didn’t even move. Instead, Naka was looking at Lu Li with a scorn. He was provoked by the ferocious look. He swept across with the divine weapon of Dragon King to clear a bloody path in front of him so he could approach Naka.
“Little White, look out to those sneaking up on me!”
Lu Li told Little White on his shoulder. He felt something was off. Naka had been careful that Lu Li could not get close. Why wasn’t Naka running? Something was wrong for sure.
Three hundred feet, 150 feet!
Lu Li had a rough time trying to move forward. His arm was even number and he was covered in blood, which gave him a look of a beast bathed in blood.
Asmodians were in a panic seeing how Lu Li was shortening the distance between him and Naka. They began to swarm toward Lu Li with no regard of their own lives.
There was a strict hierarchy among the Asmodians. If something happened to Naka, the other Asmodians would be executed after they went back. Their families might be punished as well.
Lu Li was only more than 100 feet away from Naka but the swarm of Asmodians was making it incredibly difficult for him to break free and move past the distance.
Lu Li flew into rage. Once again, he roared and released golden needles of psychic power as if they were nothing and knocked away groups of Asmodians.
Finally!
He forward another less than 100 feet. Lu Li yelled and poured golden needles of psychic power toward Naka. However, right at that moment, Naka suddenly vanished into thin air.
Lu Li felt a chill as if he was being targeted by several vipers. From the depth of his soul came sense of danger that made every hair he had stood up.
“This is a trap!”
It was a split of a moment. Lu Li yelled without any hesitation, “Little White, cover me up in the Ding of Barbarian God and suck all the Asmodians that will appear near me in. Then release thunderbolts and let me out!”
Being in fatal dangers for many times, Lu Li had developed an instinct reaction. He knew that if he wouldn’t use the Ding of Barbarian God now, he would be dead without a doubt.
Little White never doubted Lu Li’s orders. From between its eyebrows, there came a small tripod Ding that enlarged. Then the lid was open. A strong suction force enveloped an area with a radius of several feet around Lu Li.
“Swish, swish~”
At that precise moment, the space around Lu Li began to tremble as five Asmodians surged out around Lu Li. As soon as they came out, they stabbed at Lu Li forcefully.
Naka, the Asmodian prince was among the five. Naka was spinning and the spear it had was different from others’. That was a spear of dark golden color. It was nothing average when it had such a ghastly and frigid feeling.
What spooked Lu Li the most was not the weapon, but Naka’s speed.
Naka kept spinning at a speed numerous times faster than regular Asmodians. Xuan Qi in heaven and earth nearby were swirling accompanying that and there were shockwaves in space. Clearly, this was a Profound Meaning, a high level one no less.
Five Asmodians extended their spear at the same time and they all had protections over their souls. Lu Li and Little White might be able to kill one or two but Lu Li would be stabbed to death by one of them.
That being said…
This move that Naka thought was certain to kill Lu Li ran into mishap. The Ding of Barbarian God had a ring of black air circling around it, amid which there were glistening mysterious runes. The tripod Ding had electric arcs enveloping around it as well. A strong force sucked Lu Li in but Little White had hopped up to the top as if the force was ineffective to it.
“Ding of Barbarian God?”
Naka looked up from where Lu Li vanished and saw an ancient huge Ding. Naka was frightened to death.
Naka knew Rui the Iron’s Ding of Barbarian God. Once, Rui the Iron boasted about it and Naka became envious that Rui the Iron could get a piece of Quasi Relic.
Another surge of suction force spread out from the mouth of the Ding of Barbarian God. Given that Rui the Iron and the other Asmodians had just come from the void, they could not shield from the force and they were all sucked in.
“Boom!”
The lid was closed. Little White put away the Ding of Barbarian God. Lu Li, Naka and the other four powerful Asmodians all disappeared in midair.
“But…”
The Asmodians that were swarming over from all sides were stunned and still, staring at the huge Ding and the vanished Naka.
