The Invincible Dragon Emperor - Chapter 1248: God Biters
“Nice, good!”
Lu Li walked around the Deaf Taoist faster and faster. Still, he did not cause any turbulence in space. The Deaf Taoist could not find Lu Li.
“Swish!”
Lu Li poured out a trace of divine energy to try to attack. At this moment, space began to tremble. The Deaf Taoist sensed it and moved to the side at once.
“Well, when I am not attacking, there is no trace at all. Once I take action, I will be exposed.”
The white armor glowed, and Lu Li appeared right in front of the Deaf Taoist. Patting the armor with satisfaction, Lu Li said, “Cloaking, cloaking. This armor deserves this name!”

“A one of a kind armor!”
The Deaf Taoist exclaimed with his eyes glowing as he stared at the armor. “When you walk around, there is no turbulence in space. This Relic armor must be a supreme Relic.”
Lu Li nodded. The Deaf Taoist continued, “Low grade, fine grade, supreme grade, and sacred grade. Sacred Relics are hard to come across. Supreme Relics are considered the best of all. Lord, you have two supreme Relics now. With this, not even the average immortals on the list can kill you.”
“That is not necessarily right…”
Lu Li shook his head. There were trillions of immortals but only a million were on the list. He shouldn’t underestimate any immortal on the list. They must be equipped with unique skills. If Lu Li could fend off immortals on the list just with a supreme Relic armor, then how weak the immortals on the list would be.
By this logic, would anyone with a supreme Relic armor and weapon could be comparable to an immortal on the list?
Lu Li did not know about the others, but he was sure that Ling Feidu, Holy Princess and Lou Shi’er must have supreme Relics. For major sects, to obtain some advanced Relics was nothing difficult.
“Alright. Go back inside. Take care of Little White!”
Lu Li let the Deaf Taoist and immortal’s body in. Speaking of Little White, Lu Li remembered he did not have a chance to ask Holy Princess. Otherwise, she might be able to cure Little White.
Standing in the hall for a while, Lu Li decided to enter the next level. It had been a few days. In principle, Ling Feidu and the others should have gone far. Given Lu Li’s speed and abilities, he would not be able to catch up with them.
“Let’s go!”
Lu Li moved quickly and dashed into the gate. After a flash of white glare, he found himself at the foot of a towering mountain.
“I must climb to the top along the path to get over this level!”
Lu Li raised his head to look at the meandering mountain path and the vaguely seen hills and tops. Many places were clouded with black fog, and his psychic power was impeded. He put on a solemn face. This level was difficult. Freeriding was not useful here. He must rely completely on his strength.
The magnificent mountain’s peak was nowhere within sight. The black fog was floating everywhere, partially hiding the mountain path which was actually wide. On both sides were huge boulders. This level was clear to walk up to the peak on one’s own.
Lu Li did not start rashly. Instead, he checked carefully. He used some Stone Golems and let them climb up the mountain to explore the way first.
“Buzzing~”
Lu Li then let out the immortal’s body and the Deaf Taoist, ordering them, “Follow me and be prepared to engage. There must be many tricks along the mountain path. We must plan for an ugly war.”
“Roar, roar~”
The Deaf Taoist changed form at once. He readied the stone column in his hand and walked in front of others fearlessly. The immortal’s body followed Lu Li. He waved his hand and they set off.
“Buzzing, buzzing~”
Stepping onto the path, Lu Li set out dozens more Stone Golems and put them around him. Those Stone Golems might not be particularly strong. That being said, at critical times, they could buy Lu Li some time so that he could cope with the situation.
The 10 Stone Golems exploring the way made a muffled sound as they stepped on the path. The noise echoed. Lu Li extended his psychic power as far as he could to check. He would not miss any sign of disturbance or trouble.
One thousand feet, two miles, four miles!
Nothing happened for four miles. There was no monster nor Inhibition Formations triggered.
“Something is happening…”
While Lu Li felt confused, he noticed something out of the ordinary on the path up ahead. Using psychic power, he noticed there were marks of attacks on the path with many dead bugs on the ground.
The bugs were dark golden in color with wings. There was a huge crowd. Everywhere he could see with psychic power, there were the bugs.
“Those must be killed by Lou Shi’er and the others!”
Lu Li nodded. He felt lucky. If it were like the first level and no more bugs would come out, he could make his way up to the peak easily.
“Those bugs…”
The Deaf Taoist noticed the bugs as well. He was getting a déjà vu but could not remember what the bugs were.
“Bang, bang, bang~”
The Stone Golems had reached where the dead bugs were. The sense of luck vanished from Lu Li’s mind. From the stone cracks on both sides came out some buzzing noises. Following that, countless thumb-sized dark golden bugs flew out toward the 10 Stone Golems.
“Attack!”
Lu Li ordered the Stone Golems. The 10 of them pressed forward and punched at the bugs.
“Hiss, hiss~”
Lu Li and the Deaf Taoist were shocked because the bugs swarmed over and surrounded the Stone Golems, which were reduced in a speed visible to the naked eye. They were eaten. In the blink of an eye, all 10 Stone Golems were gone.
“The God Biters!”
The Deaf Taoist trembled. Even his lips were shivering. His eyes were filled with terror. Looking at Lu Li, he said, “Lord, those are God Biters. Among the top 10 most horrifying poisonous bugs in the Divinity, the God Biters were ranked ninth. Leave. We cannot survive this.”
“Really?”
Lu Li frowned. Weren’t the ground covered with dead bugs? How did Lou Shi’er and Holy Princess kill them so easily?
“Really. You can’t muscle through them even with a Relic armor on. I will most certainly die if I run into them!”
The Deaf Taoist’s mouth twitched. Lu Li let the Stone Golems dash forward while he, the Deaf Taoist and the immortal’s body stepped back.
“How did the disciples of the three major sects kill the bugs? The God Biters must have some weaknesses. Do you know that?” While retreating, Lu Li asked.
“Yes, they do have weaknesses!”
The Deaf Taoist forced a smile. “Powerful soul attacks can kill God Biters. But… neither of us is good with soul attacks.”
“No wonder!”
Lu Li understood now. The disciples from the three major sects not only had valuable artifacts, many of them should also know powerful soul attacks as well.
“What to do?”
Lu Li frowned. Should he try to use the Cloaking Armor and see if he could steal his way over? But if it turned out that the Cloaking Armor was useless, he would be bitten to death by the God Biters.
