Chapter 629: Competition

Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy

Throwing the Ding of Barbarian God into his Interspatial Ring, Lu Li began closed-door cultivation to study the Shrink Skill which was complicated but not too difficult.

The idea of Shrink Skill was to relocate and move bones and contract muscles. It would not get in the way of daily movements but it would affect fights with enemies. God of Meng had said before that once engaged with an enemy, he would be exposed.

This Shrink Skill suited Lu Li and Hu Lang well. After all, they were not going to kill people, just for the Bodhi Fruit. If they could acquire the fruit with Xuan Crystals, then everything would go well.

The Grand Master of Demon-slaying Hall declared to cover for Lu Li for 10 years, during which time the 12 Royal Families would not hurt Lu Li. If Lu Li presented himself at the City of Buddha openly, the City of Buddha would have to worry about Lu Li’s safety…

Therefore, if the Great Buddhist Temple had Bodhi Fruit and Lu Li bought it, he could reveal his identity and then nobody would dare to hurt him.

Hu Lang finished cultivation in just 10 days. He had succeeded. He went to have a talk with Lu Li. Afterwards, he went to Central Plains in advance.

Going with Lu Li would increase the chances of him being exposed. So, he decided to sneak into the Central Plains and protect Lu Li secretly. He could also make arrangements by going in advance.

Lu Li continued to learn the Shrink Skill. Five days later, with a glow over his body, his muscles and bones began to change. He grew and his facial muscles became stronger as well.

Lu Li was not particularly tall and big. By shrinking his bones and muscles, he would turn into a dwarf, which he did not like. He decided to go the other way and grow his muscles and bones so as to change into a rude macho man.

He hadn’t shaved for a while. With the change of his physique, he became a burly fellow and his temperament altered along with that.

Lu Li walked around in the room and looked into the mirror, quite content with the outcome. The Shrink Skill was different from disguise. There was no sign of disguise and not even powerful warriors could tell, unless it was someone that was familiar. Otherwise, Lu Li wouldn’t be concerned of someone identifying him.

He walked out, scaring the chief steward who thought someone had infiltrated the Drifting Cloud Hall. Lu Li spoke and the chief steward said with a grin, “This Shrink Skill is incredible. I thought you could only shrink. I didn’t know you can grow to a brawny man.”

Lu Li took out a black armor to put it on and carried a saber of the Heaven Grade on his back. He changed his hair style, wearing it down. A burly sense came through immediately.

“Ha, ha, ha!”

Chief steward laughed and said, “State Councilor, if you can change your voice, I think you will be a different person completely.”

Lu Li nodded and asked, “Is there anything that can hide the sense of my soul? If I ran into someone familiar, they would be able to tell. Get me something so I don’t have to be afraid of anyone I know.”

Chief steward gave it some thought and said with glowing eyes, “Yes, there is. The Lotus Society has this Heavenly Soul Pellet that can form a shield around your Soul Pond. Only very powerful Human Sovereign Realm warriors will be able to inspect your soul.”

Chief steward sent someone to get Lu Li dozens Heavenly Soul Pellets from their storage and he also got Lu Li another bottle of pellets. Chief steward explained with a grin, “This is also a kind of pellet developed by the Lotus Society. We call them the Lotus Pellet. It can make you more imposing within a short time. Of course, that is just for a show, a bluff. Young Master Li, bring it for fun.”

“There are things like this?”

Lu Li grinned. It was nice to frighten someone. He put away the pellets before he asked, “Has the Samsara Palace or the Hades Society sent anyone here?”

The Samsara Palace and the Hades Society must have learned that Ji Mengyao and Yang Yu were missing. After all, they were disciples of their immediate families and they could not be left alone.

Chief steward answered after some thoughts, “Many scouts have come to the Serenity Plains and the Clouds Plains. But they were only collecting information in a well-behaved manner. Saintess said that we can leave them alone as long as they don’t make trouble.”

Lu Li understood. After all, the Samsara Palace and the Hades Society initiated the plot against Lu Li. They were afraid that the Demon-slaying Hall would hold them responsible. Now that Ji Mengyao and Yang Yu were alive, indicated by their intact jade talisman of life, the Samsara Palace and the Hades Society could not make a scene. They could only rescue secretly.

If so, Lu Li decided to leave them alone. It was getting late. He said, “Tell my sister that I will go to the City of Buddha now and thank her for taking care of the Northern Desert and the Inferno.”

Chief steward took note. Then he waved two warriors at the middle stage of the Noble Lord Realm over and explained to Lu Li, “They are from the Central Plains, Gu Min and Gu Yu. Gu Min is the third young master of the Gu Family. They are loyal to the Saintess. Let them go with you. It will be easier for you to act.”

“Alright!”

Going with warriors from the Central Plains would help Lu Li conceal his identity. He looked at Gu Min and said, “Young Master Gu, from now on, I will be your escort, Gu Li.”

Gu Min was in his early 30s. Being born in a major family at the Central Plains, Gu Min had a quite nice temperament. He cupped his fists and said, “Young Master Li, sorry about this.”

“I am Gu Li!”

Lu Li stressed and Gu Min changed the address at once. Chief steward nodded acknowledgement. Lu Li waved at Gu Min and the three of them rushed toward a castle.

They could teleport to Central Plains from here but Lu Li decided to be careful. There must be scouts from the Central Plains here at the Drifting Cloud City.

Lu Li, Gu Min and the other warrior went to a castle and teleported to a cave at the Serenity Plains. After that, they flew toward the east where they could teleport to the Central Plains from a coastal city.

That city was still under the control of a family of the Serenity Plains. But Gu Min was known to be from the Gu Family of the Central Plains. Families of the Serenity Plains would not dare to offend Gu Family of the Central Plains.

“This is the Grasshopper Island where we can teleport to the Central Plains from. The island is controlled by a sixth rank family. Technically speaking, it is the territory of the Samsara Palace. But Gu Family often have secret trades with the Clouds Plains and the Serenity Plains. The Samsara Palace and the Grasshopper know who I am so I think we will be fine.”

Gu Min explained on the way. Lu Li nodded. The chief steward had made a good choice. It could save Lu Li a lot of trouble.

They arrived at the coastal city. Gu Min showed his ID token and the Teleportation Formation was activated right away. Gu Min was somewhat well-known at the Serenity Plains and the Clouds Plains. Everyone here knew who he was and they understood that he wanted to go back to the Central Plains when the Serenity Plains was in chaos.

Lu Li, dressed like an escort, was only at the peak of the Eternal Realm. His whiskers gave him a rugged look. Nobody paid him any attention.

“Buzzing~”

After teleporting for a long time, the three of them finally landed. Lu Li sensed the Xuan Qi in heaven and earth was more profound. He realized he was once again at the Central Plains.

Central Plains was the most prosperous land of the Great Land, at the center of the Heaven Reverse Universe. Many, many years ago, humans and tens of thousands of ancient races competed here. Eventually, humans won and set the foundation for human glory.

Somehow, Lu Li felt a strong surge of feelings. His eyes became misty. Would he and Lu Ling have the chance to vie for a win here?
