Suddenly, Li Rui took out a pill furnace from the storage ring. It seemed that they had never seen an alchemist before, and they looked at everything with curiosity.
No one would have expected that a race of tens of thousands of elves had dwindled to less than a thousand by now. It was truly…
Li Rui felt exhausted; just refining this type of detoxification pill took over ten hours. Although there were over a thousand pills, his mental energy was simply insufficient to sustain it. Moreover, it seemed that his Primordial Spirit was slightly damaged under this excessive strain.
He even needed to refine healing pills, and he preferred the dark-colored pills he made himself. Perhaps no one had seen them before, and the effects of such things could only be described with three "heh heh heh."
Even Li Rui himself did not expect that this country had taken seven attempts just to barely refine a thousand black pills. Not everyone was poisoned; rather, the latter had some subtle uses, perhaps for future battles. Teaching a few people in the elven race to refine such things would allow them to…
By the seventh attempt, Li Rui was utterly exhausted and collapsed. The thousand dark pills were finally completed, and the Elven Queen had distributed everything among many people, leaving about seven hundred behind!
"Carry him to the Land of Sun and Moon." At this moment, the Elven Queen seemed to notice Li Rui's condition and said repeatedly.
The elves were momentarily stunned but quickly followed the queen's orders and carried him over. When Li Rui lay in the Land of Sun and Moon, the violent energy within him seemed to be suppressed by a peculiar force.
Li Rui understood that this was the rhythm of breaking through to the Core Formation stage! This torturous process was a perfect opportunity, but what dissatisfied him was that this process was quite painful.
"The process of Core Formation won't be so painful; there should be a sense of ease." He remembered Ma Mingwei saying something like that, which made Li Rui feel like punching someone.
However, the latter did not know that this process lasted for more than seven hours, causing great concern among the elves outside, especially for the Elven Queen.
Li Rui had saved an entire elven race!
A cry escaped from Li Rui's mouth, and with that scream, even the Elven Queen was stunned. She hadn't experienced such pain when she reached Core Formation! Could it be that something within Li Rui's body was about to awaken?
In a daze, Li Rui saw a pair of eyes in his sea of consciousness for some unknown reason. These eyes were filled with sternness, as if a father were watching his child.
The scene was truly…
The next second, the latter thought something might happen, but little did they know nothing occurred at all. Suddenly, those eyes closed, plunging everything into nothingness! Only Li Rui remained wandering in place.
Time passed slowly; Li Rui showed no signs of waking up at all. On the seventh night, a mysterious aura suddenly invaded his Dantian.
After a wave of pain that seemed to come and go, Li Rui finally woke up, his eyes becoming incredibly clear. He didn't know why, but it felt as if he had gone through an entire cycle of life and death; who knows what he had experienced.
When he awoke, many people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, their only thought being gratitude. Finally, he was okay.
At that moment, the Elven Queen led Li Rui to a secluded place.
"I understand your concerns, but we cannot act like this right now."
"Why not?"
"Because I have been waiting for someone."
"Sister Hua, you don't mean Flower Mother, do you?" Upon hearing this, Li Rui couldn't help but recall the figure the Elven Queen had mentioned and asked in return.
This surprised the Elven Queen. Although she had considered Li Rui's identity, she was still uncertain. Now that he had spoken that name, her plans could be set into motion.
When the Elven Queen learned everything from Li Rui, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, lost in thought with a difficult expression on her face.
"Sister, I was wrong to you back then! Are you really going to use this to mock me now?"
This left Li Rui somewhat puzzled. What kind of situation was this? Was his ability merely to "mock"? To him, it seemed like everything was just a joke!
However, the Elven Queen decided to take a gamble, seemingly wanting to place everything on Li Rui's shoulders—and this time she was right.
"What should we do next?" This question left Li Rui a bit dazed; it seemed he hadn't thought about what to do afterward.
Given the current situation, Li Rui had to strategize their actions. The most troubling aspect was that their forces were extremely weak; they were arguably the weakest among all tribes. Moreover, it seemed impossible to fight here.
"Can we establish allies?"
Upon hearing this, the Elven Queen smiled wryly. She had been too aggressive before; now wanting to recruit allies would be awkward. There were five tribes in total—four viewed the Elven race as a thorn in their side and wished to eliminate them at once! The fifth was a traitor; forming an alliance with such people would be laughable.
Li Rui fell into deep thought once again.
Suddenly, Li Rui thought of a good idea. If he could "fish in troubled waters," then...
With that thought, the Elven Queen smiled, fully aware of what Li Rui was capable of.
"All members of the Elven race, obey! Everyone must follow the orders of Young Hero Li; seeing him is like seeing me!"
At first, the Elven Queen did not fully believe in Li Rui, but his actions had already exceeded her expectations. Perhaps he really could save the Elven race from peril and establish a reputation among all tribes!
"I refuse to accept this!" At that moment, it seemed someone was unwilling to comply.
The Elven Queen felt a bit embarrassed. This person had always been arrogant and domineering; although he was at the peak of the Core Formation stage, he had defeated warriors below the True Immortal level.
This made the Elven Queen feel somewhat awkward, but Li Rui just smiled. Back then, he could defeat those at the peak of Core Formation; now that he was also at that level, why couldn't he... and besides, he could adapt to his current situation in the Core Formation realm!
"Then let's fight!" Indeed, this phrase came from Li Rui's mouth. No one knew why Li Rui made such a statement, nor did they understand what calculations were running through his mind.
