Chapter 133 (continued)
It was this Star Curse that led her to the secret realm of Life-and-Death Battle.
As soon as Li Yang landed, she quickly ran towards the nearest cover.
The Life-and-Death Battle Secret Realm is different every time, so the map is not very useful for reference.
One of the tips Qing Teng summarized for Li Yang was. "After landing, find cover first to avoid running into people head-on."
Li Yang felt this deeply.
When she first arrived in the Single-Horn Domain, she was less vigilant, which allowed the Golden Rat Clan to steal her communicator, and then...
In short, Li Yang would not repeat the same mistake, so as soon as she teleported in, she quickly spread her mental energy to find suitable cover.
She didn't even have time to check out the scene of this Life-and-Death Battle Secret Realm.
Regardless of the context.
Let's hide first!
Li Yang acted swiftly, and with her mental energy spread out widely, plus Lianxin's assistance, she quickly found cover and hid temporarily.
Only then did she have time to check the surrounding area.
Li Yang had seen many secret realms before, but the one before her still surprised her.
The most unique thing about this secret realm is the sky.
The sky Life-and-Death Battle was incredibly strange; Li Yang could only look up once before he couldn't help but look down again.
Lianxin: "Fellow Daoist, don't look, it's mentally polluting."
[Lifespan increased by 600 years.]
Li Yang sensed it too, and she nodded in agreement.
The sky was covered with countless bumps, like a giant toad that had been skinned and pasted onto the sky, making one's scalp tingle at first glance.
Yet, a bright light still pierced through the hazy sky, illuminating the surrounding environment.
What's even stranger is that the falling light is very even, not in Dao Yi.
But Li Yang didn't want to look up at the sky that made her scalp tingle.
Aside from the sky, this secret realm isn't particularly special.
The surrounding scenery resembled a sparsely populated jungle.
The cover Li Yang found was a very thick tree.
How big is this tree?
The hollow tree beneath it is large enough to accommodate six or seven people.
Li Yang was hiding in this tree hole.
The tree hollow was damp and smelled of decaying leaves.
But the tree hole is quite safe because there is only one entrance, and it is very well hidden. Li Yang only needs to keep his eyes on one direction.
She can quickly strike and kill anyone who gets close.
Lianxin: "Fellow Daoist, I'll watch the entrance!"
Li Yang smiled and said gently, "Okay, Lianxin!"
[Lifespan increased by 600 years.]
[Lifespan increased by 600 years.]
The little doll sat on Li Yang's shoulder, still pretending to be dead without moving, but its eyes were fixed on the entrance.
With him watching over things, there's absolutely no chance of anything going wrong.
Even if someone at the Sixth Grade Realm Peak approaches, Lianxin can clearly sense it.
Li Yang is quite busy; she needs to test whether the Teleportation Anchor works first.
This secret realm of Life-and-Death Battle has a barrier that prevents teleportation.
However, this barrier may not be able to stop Li Yang's Teleportation Anchor.
Just like the Blue Crystal Realm Domain also has barriers set up by the Huaxia Heavenly Palace to prevent teleportation, as long as the Bone Peach Clan sets up anchor points, they can still teleport back and forth.
Li Yang didn't use it directly, but sensed it first. After finding that it could be triggered, she breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as she can teleport back and forth, Li Yang can use the Invincible Shield more boldly.
The Invincible Shield is truly Invincibility, but its use comes at a very high cost.
Li Yang currently only has a lifespan limit of 150,000 years. If he really goes all out and burns himself out, even this Invincible Shield won't last long.
Li Yang wouldn't underestimate those popular teams.
Compared to them, Li Yang is just a lamb to the slaughter.
These madmen, who spend years in Life-and-Death Battle, have extremely rich combat experience and are ruthless and vicious. They have no regard for martial ethics.
Without the Invincible Shield, Li Yang wouldn't have been confident of participating in this Life-and-Death Battle.
There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding.
Li Yang never underestimates others.
Especially in this Life-and-Death Battle, she cannot use Risking Life —this treasure is too special and would attract unnecessary attention; it might also violate the rules of the Life-and-Death Battle and force her out of the competition.
As for why she dared to use the Invincible Shield, it was because the Invincible Shield's effect was quite common. Although it came from the Soul Fragment of a fallen Divine Venerable, the Soul Fragment had long been completely destroyed by Li Yang, and there was no longer Divine Venerable's aura on the Invincible Shield.
After checking the Teleportation Anchor, Li Yang took out the locator.
She needs to pinpoint Lu Yanbie locations.
Li Yang still wouldn't approach Lu Yanbie on her own initiative, but she had to find a way to present the Invincible Shield to Lu Yanbie.
The locator quickly displayed Lu Yanbie's location.
The locator doesn't have a map of the Life-and-Death Battle Secret Realm, but the advantage is that the Secret Realm is really small.
Lu Yanbie also among the first batch of people to enter.
Li Yang had already located him using the locator.
"Three kilometers..." Li Yang murmured, "So close."
For Star Wielders, three kilometers is indeed very close.
With their current Physique Points, if they were to run at full speed, it would only take them a few dozen seconds to cover three kilometers.
For ordinary people, this is almost like teleportation.
As Fifth Grade Realm, Li Yang might not seem like much in a Life-and-Death Battle, but in the Huaxia Realm Domain, he would be considered a godlike figure.
It should be noted that the provincial capital director, whom Li Yang once looked up to, was only at the second or third rank.
Li Yang is now someone the director of the Donghua Province Education Commission can only dream of.
After confirming these facts, Li Yang then extended his mental energy to sense the situation around him.
She sensed people around her, but they were all lone Star Wielders.
Li Yang has no interest in acting alone.
She wanted to find a small team.
Of course, she wouldn't go straight for those popular teams.
Li Yang's goal was to wait for a team at the Fifth Grade Realm, then she would deliberately reveal herself and attract Lu Yanbie's attention.
Li Yang waited patiently in the tree hole for quite a while, and finally... she sensed a small team.
Lianxin was quite capable these days, and quickly said in her Spirit Sea, "Fellow Daoist, the highest level in this team is at the Peak Fifth Grade Realm, and the lowest is about the same level as you, there are seven people in total."
"Seven people..." To be honest, that's a bit too many for Li Yang.
But Li Yang looked at the locator and felt she couldn't wait any longer.
Lu Yanbie moving. If he moves out of this area, the difficulty of handling Li Yang's scenario will increase dramatically.
"Seven people it is!" Li Yang was still confident in facing Fifth Grade Realm Star Wielders.
Their attack power is limited; even if they focus their fire on her, it shouldn't burn too much of her lifespan.
After carefully considering the details and finding no problems, Li Yang walked out of the tree hole.
Her serial number had changed by then.
Especially the number of participants at the very top.
The number of people dropped by 100 in the blink of an eye.
The popularity ranking has also been released, with only the top 100 items displayed on the numbered list.
The popularity ranking list not only includes serial numbers, but also the names used during registration and the corresponding ethnicity.
Li Yang only glanced at them, and after not seeing any of the popular teams, she didn't pay much attention to them anymore.
The current popularity rankings are not very useful for reference.
Don't be fooled by the 100 people who were eliminated; they were mostly careless lone wolves who ended up fighting to the death when they bumped into each other.
There's nothing to be happy about in winning, and as for those who are eliminated... if they don't lose their lives, that's a pretty good result.
In Life-and-Death Battle, it is permissible to forfeit the match during the fight—as long as there is time.
After Li Yang emerged from the tree hollow, she casually wandered over to the vicinity of the seven-person team.
One of the seven-person team members was using their mental abilities to probe, and they quickly sensed Li Yang.
They show no mercy to lone, unaccompanied individuals.
One kill equals 1000 Star Coin.
Of these 1000 Star Coin, the organizer will only take a 20% cut.
Even if they withdraw now, they can still easily take away 800 Star Coin.
Most low-level Star Wielders are not as ambitious as those well-known teams.
They just wanted to rake in a small fee for each person they met, earn a few thousand merit points, and then quickly leave.
So when they sensed Li Yang, they immediately became restless like hyenas that had caught the scent of prey.
"This person looks familiar!"
"This isn't that..."
"Ah, that Little Fire Fox spouting nonsense in the Illusory Mist Tavern!"
"It really is her! This disguise is so clumsy!"
"There's no other way. She's only at the First Stage of the Fifth Grade Realm. She might not even have replenished her spiritual energy yet. She's already done her best to disguise herself to this extent."
The seven people immediately became excited, and they communicated in their Spirit Sea—
"We're so lucky. If we kill her, we might even get a reward."
"Why don't we take her with us..."
"Don't be greedy! This Little Fire Fox is a ticking time bomb. If we really keep it with us, we'll become the target of everyone's hatred."
"But she really does have a lot of buzz, we..."
"The tips are plentiful, but with our current level of cultivation, we can't take much with us!"
"Okay, we'll do as the boss says, we'll grab the headhunting fee and run."
"Let's kill her first. If someone actually gives us a tip, even if we only take 10%, it'll still be extra income."
"OK!"
The group quickly reached a consensus and prepared to ambush Li Yang.
In their eyes, Li Yang was doomed.
These First Stage of the Fifth Grade Realm Fire Fox Clan were like lambs to the slaughter when faced with this seven-person team, all of them Fifth Grade. They were simply waiting to be swallowed whole.
Li Yang pretended to be alert, as if she had suddenly noticed the movement of the seven-person team, and quickly ran in one direction.
