"Yu Huashen, come and you pour Xuan Energy in. Now, these runes should spin clockwise and those should move that way…

"

Lu Li couldn’t hold on any longer by the time they were dozens of miles away from the Wicked Sorcery Mountain so he called Yu Huashen over to help. Lu Li taught Yu Huashen how to steer the Coffin of the Dragon King.

The Inhibition Formation for flying on the Coffin of the Dragon King was easy to control. It was about the same of steering a chariot or Iron-armored Ship. The difference was that the Coffin of the Dragon King could fly very fast, at a speed comparable to a warrior at the peak of the Eternal Realm.

The cloaking Inhibition Formation of the Coffin of the Dragon King was powerful as well. Not even warriors of the Eternal Realm could see through it. Warriors of the Noble Lord Realm should be able to sense it, though.

That being said, the world was not full of Noble Lord Realm warriors. As long as they stayed away from cities and bad luck, they wouldn’t run into any Noble Lord Realm warriors in the wild.

Lu Li planned to ask Yu Huashen to steer the Coffin of the Dragon King for some time. They would fly away from the territories of the Qin Family and the Du Family and then figure out a way to take Iron-armored Ships to the Mystic Armor Region.

Yu Huashen quickly mastered the control of the Coffin of the Dragon King after some trying. His Xuan Energy was abundant that he could fly this thing for years. Lu Li put his mind at ease and sat on the Coffin of the Dragon King with his legs crossed to take some rest.

Ming Yu had been sitting with his legs crossed, working on to expel the what remained of the toxins. He stopped for a moment, turned to Lu Li and waited for him to explain.

Lu Li had absolute trust in Ming Yu and he had no concern about Yu Huashen since he was a slave. Lu Li explained without holding back any information,

"This is the Coffin of the Dragon King. It was in the Tomb of the Dragon King before, and it flew away. There was a remaining soul of a demon in here, but I have no idea what it is. That demon tried to possess me and take my body, so for a while back there, I was under his control. After we entered the Wicked Sorcery Mountain, I got lucky and killed the demon. This was how I could fly out of the Wicked Sorcery Mountain…

"

Lu Li didn’t go to the details and there were secrets he didn’t reveal. He trusted those two, but the silver dragon mark in his Soul Pond was so strange that he didn’t plan on telling anyone. A secret that was only known by him was worthy of the name of secret.

Ming Yu had no question about Lu Li’s explanation. Lu Li did seem not to be himself before. When his eyes were that red and he roared in a horrifying way, he didn’t appear to be out of his mind, but being possessed.

As for how could Lu Li kill such a powerful demon?

Neither of them asked. Ming Yu took it for granted as Lu Li was Lu Renhuang’s son. Lu Renhuang must have left some treasure behind for Lu Li.

So how come Lu Li wanted to fly the Coffin of the Dragon King away quietly? Ming Yu had an answer. He grabbed the Ghost Mask off from his face, handed it over to Lu Li and said,

"Young Master, you put this one. It will be safer that way.

"

"Sure…

"

Lu Li’s face was known to many people. He smashed and injured many warriors as well. It would be safer for him to wear the Ghost Mask. At least, no warrior below the Noble Lord Realm could see his real face.

"Young Master, you are a man rewarded by heaven.

"

Yu Huashen exclaimed. Lu Li really was a blessed man as he could escape such a perilous situation.

He asked after a moment of silence,

"Young Master, when you carried the coffin, you had this skill that could generate dozens of illusionary shadows. Is it a kind of Profound Meaning you perceived or the demon’s doing? Ming Yu said you have an Apparition Skill.

"

Yu Huashen didn’t believe that Lu Li had this ability but he was curious all the same, therefore, the question.

Lu Li rolled his eyes and said,

"You think I can learn Profound Meaning at my level? Apparition is a Xuan Skill that I know but it was integrated with secret skill or Profound Meaning by the demon. That was how it became so powerful.

"

Ming Yu nodded. Yu Huashen raised his eyebrow and made a recommendation,

"Young Master, since this demon used your body to release this skill then there must be some trace. Try to think it back and recall what it was like. Maybe…you have a chance to infer a Profound Meaning out of it.

"

"Eh?

"

Ming Yu paused for a moment and then said with excitement,

"Yes, right, Young Master! This is a once in a lifetime chance. It was the demon that controlled you to release this skill, but there must be some remaining memory of it in your mind. Just try to think it back using your memory and you might be able to know this Profound Meaning. This Profound Meaning is very powerful. It should be a fourth or fifth rank one or higher. If you can master it, you will shock the whole world.

"

To master a Profound Meaning at the age of 16 and at the Soul Pond Realm would be a matter of huge sensation in the world. Lu Li would become the most talented genius in the Central Plains.

Lu Li was intrigued by the idea. He had thought about it at the Wicked Sorcery Mountain.

The Xuan Skill that go through space and generate dozens of illusionary shadows really was incredible. Not even warriors of the Noble Lord Realm could see through the illusions. If Lu Li could master those two skills, his abilities might not be improved, but his chances of escaping and saving his own life would be greatly elevated.

Lu Li at once sat down with his legs crossed and tried to think back about what it was like when the demon used his body to release those two kinds of skills…

However!

Lu Li thought for two hours but couldn’t find anything in his mind. He could recall what the situation was like, but he couldn’t understand how the demon did it. There was nothing about the how in his mind.

"No…

"

Lu Li opened his eyes and helplessly shook his head. Ming Yu and Yu Huashen sighed. Lu Li thought about it. He believed that when the two skills were used, his Soul Pond was occupied by the demon but his soul was not devoured by the demon yet, which meant that their souls were separated so Lu Li couldn’t know how the demon used the two skills in his own soul.

"Too bad!

"

Lu Li sighed internally. If the silver dragon mark could impart everything of the demon to him, it would be amazing. Lu Li could understand many skills and even Profound Meaning by means of the demon’s memory.

Also…

There must be something in the demon’s memory to open up the Coffin of the Dragon King and to enter the Hall of Wicked Sorcery. If Lu Li could get the intact memory, then all the treasures in the Coffin of the Dragon King and the Hall of Wicked Sorcery would be his.

The Coffin of the Dragon King could be opened as long as Lu Li still had it. But it was a shame to leave the Hall of Wicked Sorcery behind. Lu Li might never come back here after this time.

If it was destined for him, he would have it later, but if not, he couldn’t have it even if he forced to take it.

Lu Li didn’t waste any more time pondering about this. He asked Yu Huashen to focus on steering the Coffin of the Dragon King. Lu Li took out a map, browsed it, pointed to a city and said,

"We will go this city and we can find a chamber of commerce in this Prefectural City. We need to leave the northern Central Plains by taking Iron-armored Ships first before we can talk about other plans.

"

"Sure!

"

Yu Huashen and Ming Yu looked at each other and agreed. Ming Yu then went back to expelling toxins and Yu Huashen controlled the Coffin of the Dragon King.

Lu Li threw some spars for Little White to eat and had some prepared food himself. Then he sat with his legs crossed to cultivate Xuan Energy which he had consumed too much lately.

After cultivating for a day and a night, Lu Li had restored some Xuan Energy. During this time, the Coffin of the Dragon King had been flying only in the wild so it was safe. They never ran into any powerful warriors. They had crossed a vast land so they could be out of the Qin Family territory by now.

The night was chilly. Lu Li opened his eyes to have a look around. Yu Huashen was still steering the Coffin of Dragon King and Ming Yu focused on getting toxins out. Lu Li looked at the passing trees and views in an absent-minded state, feeling reluctant to give up on the skills. He began to recall what it was like when the demon released the skills, wondering if there were any missing pieces.

Right at that moment!

The silver dragon mark suddenly glowed in his Soul Pond, after which some additional information came to Lu Li’s mind.

Lu Li trembled in excitement after he browsed through the information. The information was actually a piece of memory of the demon integrating and bettering his apparition!

Lu Li took it all in and digested all the information. Then he opened his eyes and laughed, which sacred Ming Yu and Yu Huashen.

Seeing how surprised the two were, Lu Li grinned and explained,

"I… may have the chance to master the skill that can generate more than 60 illusionary shadows.

"
