"Hurry up!"
At the foot of Black Eagle Ridge, Lu Li ran as hard as he could. It was almost dark. If he didn't pull him up to the top of the mountain, he would not be rewarded.
After dragging a three-thousand-pound ancient coffin for most of the day, Lu Li's muscles all over his body ached and his legs were trembling. Now that he was going up a mountain, it was even more strenuous.
Black Eagle Ridge is very high, and the mountain road winds up for two or three miles. Although it is not too steep, it is extremely strenuous to continue going uphill, and there is snow on the mountain path. If you accidentally slip, the ancient coffin will slide down. If you tip over, you may be fined heavily, not to mention that you will not be paid.
"drink!"
Lu Li roared several times, like a roaring beast. The knotted muscles all over his body were tense, his eyes were wet with sweat, and the front was blurry, but he still moved forward steadily step by step.
"Persist, I must persist!"
Many times Lu Li almost wanted to give up, his legs felt as heavy as sandbags. Finally thinking of the Body Tempering Pill, he gritted his teeth and kept moving forward, climbing towards the top of the mountain step by step.
"Chi~"
Suddenly, Lu Li's legs slipped and he fell to the ground. The huge ancient coffin immediately fell down. His expression changed drastically. If the ancient coffin tipped over, the consequences would be disastrous.
"drink!"
He roared, wrapped his hands around the chain several times, and then grabbed it with his fingers toward the ground. At the same time, he kicked hard with his legs, hooking into the snow and mud to stabilize his body and slow down the huge momentum of the ancient coffin sliding.
After retreating two or three meters, Lu Li stabilized his body and the ancient coffin stopped sliding. As his knees and hands rubbed against the ground, a large area of skin became red and swollen, and blood faintly overflowed.
"Hoo ho!"
After making sure that he wouldn't slip, Lu Li gasped for air. It was okay to be injured a little. As long as the coffin didn't tip over, he was lucky, otherwise his work today would have been in vain.
After resting for a moment, he continued on. Just before it got dark, we finally reached the top of the mountain. Looking at the dozens of ancient coffins emitting dim light placed on the top of the mountain, Lu Li let out a long breath of relief.
…
The top of the mountain is very broad, with prominent left and right sides. It looks like a soaring eagle, so it was named Black Eagle Ridge.
This mountain range was originally the ice burial place of a tribe, but it was later forcibly occupied by the Liu family. As the overlord of Wuling City, the Liu family had tribes and families thousands of miles away who had to take orders from the Liu family. Taking over a mountain was nothing.
There are many people on the top of the mountain, including guards riding silver wolves, craftsmen building large arrays, and old men waiting to receive commissions or elixirs after pulling out coffins.
"Is this coffin puller so young?"
Sitting on a silver wolf is a beautiful girl wearing a white fox fur. The girl is about 28 years old. She holds a silver whip in her hand. She is majestic and noble.
She was a little surprised when she saw Lu Li coming to pull the coffin at such a young age? Lu Li was naked, young and handsome, with strong muscles and a very good appearance. Especially the wild aura has an inexplicable attraction to women.
"Yes, Miss Yi!"
Liu Wu, the commander of the guard next to him, replied: "It's hard to find someone to pull the coffin. Although Lu Li is not a warrior, he is born with supernatural powers. He volunteered to pull the coffin, and his subordinates took charge of it without authorization."
"oh."
Miss Yi quickly looked away from Lu Li. For her, if he couldn't even cultivate Xuan Li, such a person was destined to be a loser, only qualified to do the most menial tasks, such as pulling coffins.
Lu Li pulled the ancient coffin to the designated location. He rested for a while, then took out a black cotton-padded jacket from the sack behind him and put it on.
It was not that he was not afraid of the severe cold, but when he was pulling the coffin, he had to carry it on his shoulders, and his coat could easily be torn. Every piece of clothing was sewn with hard work by his sister, and he was reluctant to damage it.
After waiting for a while, several more coffin pullers came from behind. Lu Li counted seventeen people including him. The rest of the people are all elderly warriors, at least in their early fifties. It seems that this job of pulling coffins is really not popular among young people in the Northern Desert.
"Okay, come and get your reward."
The guard commander Liu Wu jumped down from the silver wolf. He walked to the front of the coffin puller, looked at an old man and said: "Two hundred gold leaves, mysterious spirit pill, body tempering pill, human-level first-grade mysterious weapon, what reward do you choose?" ?”
The old man said with great certainty: "Xuanling Pill!"
Liu Wu took out two jade boxes from his arms and threw them over. The old man pulled two coffins today. He is a warrior. Although he is at the lowest level of Xuanwu realm, he is much stronger than Lu Li.
"And you?"
Liu Wu looked at another old man, who said with the same certainty: "Sir, I also want two Xuanling Pills."
Liu Wu was not surprised that several people wanted Xuanling Pill.
These old men are either in the middle or late stage of Xuanwu Realm, and they obviously want to use the Xuanling Pill to reach the next level. If they can break through to the Divine Sea Realm, their longevity will increase and their combat power will soar.
"Lu Li, what about you?" Liu Wu asked when it was Lu Li's turn. Lu Li said very definitely: "I want the Body Tempering Pill."
"Body Tempering Pill?"
Liu Wu frowned, and the old men next to him shook their heads. Liu Wu pondered for a moment and said: "Lu Li, although the Body Tempering Pill can temper the body and increase strength, you should understand that brute strength is useless. You need to If you want to become a warrior, your profound strength is fundamental. Why don't you exchange for gold leaves and go back to improve your life?"
"Thank you sir, I will take the Body Tempering Pill." Lu Li said firmly.
Liu Wu said no more, took out a yellow jade box and threw it over. Lu Li opened it and found an earthy yellow elixir that exuded a delicate fragrance, and his face was filled with joy.
"idiot… "
Miss Yi saw the heat in Lu Li's eyes and smiled mockingly. In her opinion, Lu Li didn't understand cultivation at all.
Xuanwu, Divine Sea, Soul Pond, Wheel of Life, Immortality, Lord, Human Emperor!
This is the realm of cultivation for warriors in the Northern Desert. Every time they advance to a higher realm, their combat power will soar. A strong man can break through mountains, level cities, and destroy heaven and earth with just a raise of his hand.
Become a strong person, you will have incredible power, you will be able to soar into the sky, and you will have endless glory and wealth. Can become a city lord, a domain lord, or even a human emperor.
but!
All of this is based on Xuan Li. If you can't cultivate Xuan Li, you can't break through the Xuan Wu realm. Everything is just a flower in the well.
Lu Li is already fourteen or fifteen years old, and he is still unable to practice Xuan Li. This shows that his qualifications are very low, and it will be difficult for him to enter the martial arts gate in this life.
In this case, why does he need the Body Tempering Pill? So what if I cultivate my strength to ten thousand catties? Not to mention the Divine Sea Realm warriors, even the peak Xuanwu Realm warriors could easily kill him, and it was still an instant kill!
"alright!"
The rewards were quickly distributed, and Liu Wu waved his hand and said, "Everyone, go back and rest. If you still want to pull the coffin tomorrow, go to Broken Blade Ridge early."
It was completely dark, and everyone wanted to leave a long time ago. After hearing this, they all went down the mountain.
Lu Li's muscles ached all over his body and his legs felt heavy, but he was eager to return home. He ran wildly and quickly disappeared into the Black Eagle Ridge.
…
Lu Li lives in the Dilong tribe, thirty miles south of Black Eagle Ridge. He grabbed the jade box and ran into the hazy night. After spending an hour, he finally arrived at the tribe.
Although he was very tired, he didn't rest for even a moment. Because he knew that his sister must be waiting for him to return home outside the tribe.
really!
By the fence outside the tribe, Lu Li saw a delicate white figure. Looking at the figure that was covered in heavy snow and turned into a snowman, Lu Li felt inexplicably sad and shouted from afar: "Sister, I'm back."
The snowman moved. It was a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing a cloak, and her pale face was extremely beautiful, far better than Miss Yi of the Liu family.
But she was leaning on a crutch in her left hand, and it seemed that her legs and feet were a bit inconvenient? Hearing Lu Li's voice, a faint smile appeared on her face, like a snow lotus blooming, breathtakingly beautiful.
"Sister, didn't I ask you not to wait for me?"
Lu Li strode over, grabbed his sister's cold hand, and said slightly reproachfully: "You are so weak, what if you get sick?"
The girl smiled again, looked at Lu Li dotingly, and said softly: "I don't trust you. Go home, my sister made your favorite cured venison."
"good!"
Lu Li grinned and helped the girl towards the tribe. The girl was walking with a limp on crutches, and one leg was obviously shorter.
Have such a beautiful face, but be a cripple
Lu Li was born with supernatural powers, but was unable to cultivate mystical powers. It seems that God does not favor these siblings...
