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 path winds up for two or three miles. Although it is not steep, the continuous ascent is extremely strenuous, and the mountain path is covered with snow. If you accidentally slip, the ancient coffin will slip and fall.
Next. If it falls over, there will be no reward, and you may be severely fined.
"drink!"
Lu Li roared several times, like a roaring beast. The knotted muscles in his body tightened, 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 suddenly slid down. His expression changed drastically. If the ancient coffin tipped over, the consequences would be disastrous.
"drink!"
He roared, wrapped his hands around the iron chain several times, and then grabbed the ground with his fingers. At the same time, he kicked hard with his legs, hooking them under 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 while, he continued to move forward. Just before it got dark, he finally reached the top of the mountain. Looking at the dozens of ancient coffins that emitted a faint 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 is named Black Eagle Ridge.
This mountain ridge 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 obeyed the Liu family's orders, so occupying a mountain ridge was not a big deal.
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 slightly surprised to see Lu Li, who came 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, which has an inexplicable effect on women.
Attraction.
"Yes, Miss Yi!"
The guard commander Liu Wu next to him replied: "It is difficult to find a coffin puller. Although this Lu Li is not a warrior, he is born with supernatural power. He volunteered to pull the coffin, and his subordinates took charge of it without authorization."
"oh."
Miss Yi quickly withdrew her gaze from Lu Li. For her, if he couldn't even cultivate Xuan Li, such a person was destined to be a waste, and was 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.
He was not completely unafraid 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 great effort by his sister, and he was reluctant to get it damaged.
After waiting for a while, several more coffin pullers came from behind. Lu Li counted him and there were seventeen people in total. The rest were all elderly warriors, at least in their early fifties. It seemed that the coffin pullers were doing the job.
Beimo is really not popular with young people.
"Okay, come and get your reward."
The guard commander Liu Wu jumped off the silver wolf. He walked to the front of the coffin puller, looked at an old man and said: "Two hundred gold leaves, Xuanling Pill, Body Tempering Pill, human-level first-grade profound 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. This old man pulled two coffins today. He is a warrior. Although he is at the lowest level of Xuanwu realm, his strength is much greater 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 Xuan Ling Dan.
These old men are either in the middle or late stage of the 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, where are you?" When it was Lu Li's turn, Liu Wu asked. 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 force is useless. You need to
If you want to become a warrior, your profound strength is the foundation, 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.
This is the realm of cultivation for warriors in the Northern Desert. Every time you advance to a higher realm, your combat power will soar. A strong man can break through mountains, level cities, and destroy the world with just a raise of his hand.
Becoming a strong man will have incredible power, soar into the sky, and enjoy endless glory and wealth. You can become a city lord, a domain lord, and 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 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 still need the Body Tempering Pill? What if he can cultivate his strength to ten thousand kilograms? Not to mention the warriors of the Divine Sea Realm, even the peak Xuanwu Realm can kill him easily, and he can still kill him instantly!
"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 already 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 quickly and disappeared in the Black Eagle Ridge Mountains.
…
Lu Li lived 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 a moment because he knew that his sister would definitely be waiting for him to go 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.
However, she was holding a cane in her left hand, and it seemed that her legs and feet were a little inconvenient. When she heard Lu Li's voice, a faint smile appeared on her face, like a snow lotus in full bloom, 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 walk towards the tribe. The girl was walking with a limp on crutches, and one of her legs was obviously shorter.
With such a beautiful face, but a lame person?
Lu Li was born with supernatural powers, but was unable to cultivate mystical power. It seems that God does not favor these siblings...
