Chapter 2205 Lurking
Lu Li was actually already near the Ghost Mountain, but he still did not return to the team. In a few days, he found hundreds of ghost monsters for Ghost Shadow to devour. Ghost Shadow's strength was further improved, but unfortunately the momentum growth slowed down significantly.
After reaching a certain strength, each step of improvement is extremely difficult, and more ghost monsters need to be devoured to truly transform. Of course, it may also be that devouring ghost monsters can no longer allow Ghost Shadow to greatly improve its strength, and it needs to devour stronger soul monsters. Lu Li has also considered these.
In a few days, Lu Li's dragon fighting technique has not made any progress. He has traveled to many places along the way, but it has not brought him a touch. The bottleneck is still a bottleneck, always blocking him.
He knew that the army had entered the Ghost Mountain, but he was not in a hurry to catch up, but was waiting for the army to enter the deepest part of the Ghost Mountain. At that time, there must be powerful monsters, and he would be able to find an opportunity.
These days, he thought clearly that he must take down Meng Li, so that he would have a chance to escape from the Ghost Valley. Meng Li cannot be killed, otherwise something will happen. There is a powerful barrier in the Ghost Valley, and there are ten elders suppressing him, so he can't escape.
Capture Meng Li and place some void bugs in his soul, so that Meng Li's life can be taken at any time. Elder Yang and others will be afraid to act rashly, and the people of the Meng family will not dare to move, so he can take Meng Li hostage and leave Hell Island.
As long as he leaves Hell Island, the sea is wide and the fish can jump, and the sky is high and the birds can fly. It is impossible for the Hell Palace to send out the top strong men to hunt him down, right? Even if they hunt him down, there is still a glimmer of hope. If he stays here, he will definitely die, just like a trapped beast in a cage, and the Hell Palace can kill him however it wants.
Since he has made up his mind to capture Meng Li, he doesn't have too many scruples, and he can't care about the life and death of Commander Cao and the group of soldiers. Of course, he won't deliberately kill those soldiers, he just needs to find an opportunity.
The only thing that gives him a headache is Hou San. Since this little brother follows him, he can't ignore it. But at this moment, he can't care about it even if he wants to, so he can only wait for the right opportunity to save his life and take him away.
After a circle around the outer perimeter of Youmo Mountain, Lu Li found hundreds of ghost monsters. After being devoured by the ghost, their aura still did not improve much. A day had passed, and Lu Li went up the mountain.
He followed the route of the army to go up the mountain, which would be safer and more concealed. He did not want to alert the enemy, but just wanted to follow them secretly.
He walked through the forest like a ghost. On the way, he also found two scouts. Those scouts were top scouts, but they could not find his whereabouts. He had the trace of the Great Dao and his perception was against the sky. It was too difficult for these scouts to find him.
He bypassed the scouts and continued to move forward. After half a day, Lu Li easily found the large army. He sensed it from a distance and secretly said that he came in time.
There was a war going on over there, and there was no need to go over to investigate. Lu Li sensed it and knew that the battle over there must be very tragic. The sky over there was gloomy, and there were constant screams of warriors. He could hear the roars of Commander Cao and others. There was no need to guess that the battle situation must be very unfavorable.
Lu Li quietly sneaked over there, and at the same time, he activated the trace of the Great Dao to quietly explore. He lurked a thousand miles away from the soldiers. He could roughly sense the situation over there.
The situation over there was indeed very bad. There were less than 1,500 soldiers left out of more than 2,000 soldiers. The army was also surrounded by monsters, such as the Nether Worm, the Human-faced Scorpion Beast, the Ghost Monster, and a monster that Lu Li had never seen before.
That monster had three legs, and it was still upright. It could spit fire from its mouth, and the temperature was extremely high. It was not big, but its speed was very abnormal, faster than the Ghost Monster. This monster had the greatest lethality, and many soldiers were burned.
Of course, those soldiers could still survive until now because there were not many Ghost Monsters, only dozens of them. Meng Li alone resisted dozens of Ghost Monsters, otherwise they would have died long ago if the Ghost Monsters rushed into the army.
Meng Li had a black flag in his hand, and the black flag emitted black light, flying all over the sky, which could continue to cause damage to those Ghost Monsters.
Lu Li also found three lights around Meng Li.
The lights were flying and spinning rapidly. Many ghost monsters attacked him, but they fled in fear when they encountered those lights. It was obvious that those lights were very scary.
"He is full of treasures!"
Lu Li sighed secretly. The long sword in Meng Li's hand and the armor on his body were all treasures. There must be a demon soul in his soul. This young man was armed to the teeth.
"Hou San is still alive, not bad!"
Lu Li found a familiar figure, and a smile appeared on his face. This Hou San's combat power was not very good, but his ability to save his life was first-class. But think about this kid being able to survive the battle of the Rakshasa Palace in Hell Island, which can explain a lot of things.
Lu Li was not in a hurry to act, and continued to lurk and look for opportunities. He continued to sense through the trace of the Great Dao, looking for the hidden dark guard.
"Found it!"
Soon he sensed a very weak breath, near the battlefield, lurking very deep. If he didn't have the trace of the Great Dao, sensed a breath of life, and knew his existence in advance, he would not have found it at all.
"Meng Li, Commander Cao and Commander Long are not to be feared, but this secret guard is a bit troublesome."
Lu Li frowned slightly. Meng Li looked like he had a lot of treasures and was very powerful, but this kind of young man was the easiest to deal with. Since this secret guard was ordered to protect Meng Li, his combat power must be stronger than Meng Li, otherwise why was he sent here?
"It shouldn't be the fourth calamity realm!"
Lu Li sensed for a moment and had a good idea. He had come into contact with some warriors of the fourth calamity, and the pressure of the realm could not be concealed. This person's aura was so deep that he could only be at the peak of the third calamity.
Lu Li, who was at the peak of the third calamity, was not under such great pressure. He continued to squat and waited calmly, like a hunting wolf.
"Hehe!"
Lu Li could sense the secret guard, and the secret guard also sensed Lu Li. This person was called Feng Biao, the first assassin under Elder Yang, and was very strong in assassination and hiding.
This person once offended a big family and was hunted for a full ten years. He escaped again and again and finally came to the Hell Palace. He was quickly reused with his powerful ability, but it was a pity that this person was lustful and played with women. In the end, he was demoted to the Ghost Valley and became a dog under Elder Yang.
If Lu Li didn't sense him, he might not know that Lu Li was coming. As soon as he sensed his whereabouts, he became alert in his heart, but he didn't make any move. He continued to lurk on a tree and became a whole with the tree.
His eyes flickered. Lu Li came but did not join the battle, but lay dormant on the side? Lu Li's intention was very clear. He probably wanted to kill Meng Li secretly.
After thinking for a while, he moved his lips and locked Meng Li with his mind, and said: "Mr. Meng Li, I am the secret guard sent by Elder Yang. My name is Feng Biao. I am here to protect your safety. You can confirm my identity by asking Commander Cao. I found that... the commander-in-chief has come and is lurking nearby. It may be bad for you. You have to be careful."
Remind Meng Li so that when Lu Li launches secretly, Meng Li will not be unprepared, and he will be much more relaxed at that time.
Meng Li was shocked in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface. He continued to fight with the ghost monster and thought about it in his heart. Soon, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Lu Li wanted to kill him. Isn't this an opportunity for him?
