Chapter 299: A Hall Without Doors
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
The moment Lu Li entered the Wicked Sorcery Mountain, Ming Yu looked like he had lost his soul. He fell from midair to the ground, battered out of his senses. He gazed into the mountain with the rolling dark purple fog with agony in his eyes.
The four warriors of the Noble Lord Realm flew down and stood next to him. One of the warriors patted Ming Yu’s shoulder and said, "Bro, don’t be so upset. Maybe your Young Master is a blessed man and he can come out safely…"
The patriarch of the Du Family couldn’t even believe his own words and he lowered his voice at the second half of the sentence. The other three sighed. They would only be met with death if they were to go in, let alone Lu Li. After all, Lu Li was only at the Soul Pond Realm.
Ming Yu stood in depression. He didn’t hear what the patriarch of the Du Family said. After a while, the Bead of Life suddenly came out from his abdomen and glared. Then he jumped out and rushed into the Wicked Sorcery Mountain.
"Are you out of your mind? Come back here!"
One patriarch of the Du Family sensed Ming Yu was doing something. He reached out, tried to grab Ming Yu and shouted. But Ming Yu had made such a sudden move that the patriarch could not stop him. Ming Yu had already rushed into the dark fog of the Wicked Sorcery Mountain in a blur. Soon, he was consumed by the fog…
"How!"
The four patriarchs of the Du Family looked at each other in shock. Ming Yu was going to courting his own death to accompany Lu Li. He called Lu Li Young Master? So he must be Lu Li’s servant. Then how deep the relationship between them was for the servant to go to death in such a selfless way?
"Whoosh~"
While the four patriarchs stayed in astonishment, there came a noise from behind them. They looked back and grew embarrassed.
The four stood in fear. When the others arrived, the four bowed and said, "Family Patriarch, we are sorry. Please punish us!"
Family Patriarch of the Du Family had come. He was an old man with tanned skin and a body as strong as a tiger. Du Bu and Yu Huashen stood behind him. Their expressions changed when they heard what the four said.
The Family Patriarch of the Du Family gazed into the Wicked Sorcery Mountain with his deep eyes and asked in a cold voice, "How long has he been in there?"
One of the patriarchs answered, "It’s been a while now. One of his men also went in. We tried to stop him but failed…"
"Ming Yu is in there as well?"
Yu Huashen was taken by surprise. He thought about it but lacked the courage to go in. If Lu Li had ordered him, he couldn’t resist. However, he was not courageous enough to go to his death willingly. He wouldn’t do this, either.
The Family Patriarch threw a few glances into the Wicked Sorcery Mountain, waved his hand and said, "Go back now. Even I cannot do anything when they are inside there."
Du Bu and the others nodded in silence. Du Bu wouldn’t come back alive if he were in there. Lu Li in there was like a kid that had fallen into a wolf den. The odds of him living was slim to none.
The Du Family Patriarch took the lead and flew away with a few warriors of the Noble Lord Realm with him. Du Bu and Du Ran stayed behind with Du Ran standing next to Yu Huashen for fear that he would rush in as well…
"Sigh… Du Ran, you deal with this," Du Bu left with the rest warriors and exclaimed. Du Ran was the only one stayed behind with Yu Huashen.
"Whoosh~"
Not after long, some other warriors of Noble Lord Realm came. They were from the Qin Family. However, they only threw a glance over from the distance and turned back. They had probably met the Du Family Patriarch and the others on their way.
Entering the Wicked Sorcery Mountain would only mean death. Nobody else could save Lu Li. The treasures in the coffin would be buried in the Wicked Sorcery Mountain forever. Family Patriarchs of the Qin Family and the Du Family wouldn’t take such a great risk for some treasures. It was not worth the candle.
After the Qin Family warriors left, Du Ran looked at Yu Huashen and said, "Brother Yu, don’t be too sad. I think this is Young Master Lu’s fate. Ah… how will I tell the Lu Family?"
Du Ran was in agony. A disciple of the immediate Lu Family had died here. Granted, it had not much to do with the Du Family. However, Du Ran probably had to commit suicide as a way to apologize later if the Lu Family demanded justice from the Du Family.
"No…"
Yu Huashen shook his head and said, "Young Master is still alive. I am sure of that. Since he is still alive after such a long time, I think he can survive."

"Alive?"
Du Ran frowned, not buying what Yu Huashen said. The voodoo bugs and toxins in the Wicked Sorcery Mountain were frightening. The dark purple fog was poisonous. Once some of it got to the skin, even a warrior of the Noble Lord Realm would die soon. How come Lu Li was okay?
"Yes!"
Yu Huashen nodded in determination but he didn’t explain.
He was Lu Li’s slave. He was a man that valued his honor so he wouldn’t say it directly. It was because that he was Lu Li’s slave that he was sure Lu Li was still alive. Otherwise, the Soul Worms would either be dead or running wild now.
Lu Li had converted the jade talisman to his own so he was the master of the Soul Worms. If Lu Li had dissolved the jade talisman before he died, the Soul Worms would die at once. But if Lu Li had died suddenly before he could do so, the Soul Worms would go wild and Yu Huashen would die.
The Soul Pond in Yu Huashen was peaceful which implied that Lu Li was okay. Lu Li had been in there for a while and he was still alive. The odds of him surviving this were great.
Du Ran still couldn’t believe Yu Huashen. Du Ran stared at Yu Huashen in surprise but the latter found a place nearby, sat down with his legs crossed and waited in silence.
He put his guards up and concentrated on his Soul Pond. If the Soul Worms ran wild, he would most likely die. Therefore, he waited at the foot of the mountain, for Lu Li to come out or for the Soul Worms to go wild, whichever came first.
Du Ran thought about it and decided to wait for some time with Yu Huashen. Then he could offer an explanation to Du Zheng and probably defend himself if in the future the Lu Family came to condemn him.
…
Lu Li was indeed alive.
But, this was not attributable to his abilities or his luck. It was because there was a shield outside of the Coffin of the Dragon King. The shield had protected the coffin and Lu Li from the toxins and bugs.
What was more miraculous was that the coffin had been flying and moving to all sides in here freely without triggering any ancient Inhibition Formations, which, according to Du Bu, should be abundant in here.
After the time for half an incense stick to burn, the Coffin of the Dragon King landed outside a hall on the peak of the mountain.
"Bang!"
Outside the hall was a plaza built in white jade. The Coffin of the Dragon King smashed on the plaza and the shield slowly disappeared.
During this time, Lu Li’s body was not under complete control by the demon. He was only tied off by the cold-iron chains so he couldn’t move. He opened his eyes to check the surrounding, attacked by a big hall in front of him.
There was dark purple fog all along the way, but on the plaza near the hall, there was none. Also, the hall was glaring, which brightened up the surroundings.
What a hall…
Lu Li was attracted and intrigued by the hall. The model of the hall was different from those at the Northern Desert. The hall seemed to have… no doors?
Lu Li should be right in front of the hall according to the layout of the peak and the plaza. However, there was no door. On the walls of the hall engraved numerous bugs of diversified strange shapes and looks.
More importantly, those bugs seemed to be alive. Everywhere Lu Li looked, the bugs seemed to have come to life, moving about on the wall.
Centipedes, fat bugs, black ones with tusks, and caterpillars with bird-like wings and some were burning with fire…
Lu Li was dazzled by what he saw. The bugs seemed to have magic power that would make a person unable to divert their attention.
"Buzzing~"
Soon, Lu Li couldn’t watch anymore. The cold-iron chains glared in green, and strands of energy went into Lu Li’s body and he closed his eyes.
He felt the green energy was getting into this soul quickly and it was trying to occupy his soul again. A hoary voice came up in his head, "Punk, this is the Wicked Sorcery Mountain. Even Human Sovereign Realm warriors can barely escape death in here. So… don’t expect that anyone will come to your rescue. Now behave. Don’t resist this. After I take over your body, I will make you famous all around the world."
