Chapter 0780 – Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang

Li Luo's first Fiendish Devil Cave expedition had concluded with fantastic rewards. Adding on the gains from defeating the Dark Blood Banner's third division, he should have gotten a total of five or six hundred strands of abstruse fiend light.

This was equivalent to nearly half a month of cultivation.

With such great rewards, it was no wonder why everyone was bursting with excitement whenever the Fiendish Devil Cave reopened.

After experiencing its joys for himself, Li Luo was already looking forward to the next expedition.

Moreover, he got a boost in his own reputation in addition to the abstruse fiend lights. Things couldn't have turned out any better.

Although the third division of the Dark Blood Banner was not considered the vanguard unit, they were still part of the Dark Blood Banner, who currently ranked ninth. On the whole, their banner’s strength far exceeded that of the Green Nether Banner. With his victory, Li Luo had exceeded everyone's expectations and made a name for himself within the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages.

Many amongst the other four lineages had started talking about him.

While it was not enough to bring about respect and admiration for him, people had started noticing how gifted the son of Li Taixuan was.

After all, reputation required time to build up. With this, Li Luo had gotten a good head-start.

There was still a long way to go. He was confident that in the near future, the eyes of contempt that fell upon him would subside as soon as they heard about the Green Nether Banner.

As the son, he had to preserve the hard-fought honor and respect that his dad had brought to the Green Nether Banner years ago.

After the Fiendish Devil Cave expedition, Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi had dragged Li Luo out for a celebration party, along with a few Sub Leaders from their banners. This would be a good opportunity for Li Luo to get to know them and expand his network in the Dragon's Fang Lineage.

Li Luo was grateful for this opportunity. At the same time, he was truly relieved for the kindness and care shown by his brother and sister. After all, his greatest worry before coming to the Dragon's Fang Lineage was the discrimination and challenges he would have to face from his family members due to the conflict of interests.

He still remembered vividly the struggle for power back in the Xia Kingdom's royal family, and the last thing he wanted was to waste more energy on such needless fights. Although he was prepared to put up a fight if necessary, he was glad that Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi were so accepting of him. Now he could fully focus on his cultivation.

This was the best result he could ever ask for.

……

After his first Fiendish Devil Cave expedition, Li Luo's days passed by peacefully.

His cultivation was his biggest focus everyday.

After spending three whole days refining the God Origin Pill, his waterlight resonant palace had reached approximately twenty-seven hundred strands of abstruse fiend light.

He was now more than halfway towards his goal of five thousand.

Over the remaining days, he continued his training at the Green Nether drill grounds to improve his understanding and synchronicity with the fifth division. With better synergy between them, the energy would flow better during the state of Harmony.

Furthermore, the other three divisions, apart from the first division, of course, had become more polite and friendly towards him. They would smile and greet him whenever they passed by each other in the Green Nether drill grounds.

Without a doubt, this was because they had recognized Li Luo's strength after his victory at the Fiendish Devil Cave.

However, this also led to Zhong Ling flaring up and demonstrating his jealousy and hostility towards Li Luo openly, causing the relationship between the first and fifth divisions to turn tense.

In addition, the interactions between each division had changed. The fifth division banner members were more confident after defeating the Dark Blood Banner's third division. They knew that they were not necessarily weaker than the first division, and who knew what the future would hold? They could very well become the vanguard team for the Green Nether Banner.

Nevertheless, Li Luo was not too bothered about this tension as the Sub Leader. He simply continued to focus on his cultivation daily.

As a result, the strands of abstruse fiend light in the waterlight resonance palace increased at an amazing pace.

Furthermore, he had headed to the Four Flags Pavilion of the Dragon's Fang Lineage during this time. That was where they kept their resonance art library, and Li Luo had gone there to search for a powerful dragon-general resonance art.

He needed a new attack to complement his continuous improvements. After all, the Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner was not suitable for ordinary situations despite its formidable strength. It was far too strenuous on him as a Duke Art.

As for the Thousand Watery Knives Wheel, it was still a tiger-general resonance art in the end. Even though its power was close to that of a dragon-general resonance art after his improvisation, it was still limited.

As such, it was crucial for him to master a dragon-general resonance art.

Despite the abundance of resources present in the Four Flags Pavilion, it was still a far cry from House Luolan's resources. Li Luo was unable to find anything satisfying after two whole days of searching.

This was partly because of his high requirements.

He wanted a powerful dragon-general resonance art that could be used in tandem with a bow. Although he had been using the Onyx-Elephant Blade, he actually preferred using a bow and arrow ever since the beginning...

On top of that, the dragon-general resonance art needed to be compatible with his dual resonances, as it would be easier to layer triple resonances onto it.

And this was why nothing in the Four Flags Pavilion was good enough for him.

Li Luo was not willing to relent on any of his requirements. In the end, he could only return home in disappointment.

Luckily, Li Fengyi, who had brought him to the Four Flags Pavilion, had sneakily reminded him that he could use his connections if none of the dragon-general resonance arts in the Four Flags Pavilion caught his interest.

On the next day, Li Luo headed straight for the back mountain of Dragon's Fang Mountain.

Li Jingzhe was pleasantly surprised by his visit, although his face remained serious as usual.

The duo had a nice chat in the pavilion for over half the day.

With the help of the wine, Li Luo finally summoned up the courage to raise his request.

"You sly little brat. So you came here with an ulterior motive, " Li Jingzhe jokingly replied.

Then he casually took out a jade tablet that appeared to be made of a broken tooth, and it had a faint trace of thunder power hidden in it. action

As he handed the jade tablet to Li Luo, he explained, "This is what I cultivated long ago, but it fits your requirements."

Li Luo was thrilled to accept it. As he held onto the jade tablet, he could sense significant amounts of information flooding into his mind.

High-grade dragon-general resonance art, Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang.

This dragon-general resonance art required both dragon resonance and lightning resonance power, perfectly in line with the Thunder Dragon resonance that Li Luo possessed. What's more, it was compatible with bow artifacts. This was exactly what Li Luo was looking for.

"I heard of your stellar performance at the Fiendish Devil Cave. Let this be a small little reward for you." Li Jingzhe smirked as he looked at the pleasantly surprised Li Luo.

"Thank you, Grandpa!" Li Luo exclaimed back happily.

"However, this art doesn't just require dragon resonant power, but also thunder resonant power..." Li Jingzhe explained.

Looking back at his deep gaze, Li Luo replied cheerfully, "Grandpa, you must have sensed the lightning resonance within me, right?"

Evidently, the reason Li Jingzhe had taken out this particular art was because he had noticed that Li Luo had a lightning resonance hidden within his triple resonances.

"Little brat, you sure are full of surprises," Li Jingzhe responded with shock. As a King, his observation ability was extraordinary. Moreover, Li Luo had no intention to hide anything in front of him.

"It's no big secret, just triple resonances with a primary and secondary attribute," Li Luo explained honestly.

"This is a truly rare sight. While it's not uncommon to see resonances split into primary and secondary attributes, you have three resonances with dual attributes! So you have six types of resonance power in total," Li Jingzhe said.

"The three secondary resonances are really weak. They can only help to assist the primary ones," Li Luo humbly replied.

"Perhaps, but they will be useful in the future." Li Jingzhe pondered.

"Say what?" Li Luo asked back.

Li Jingzhe shook his head and commented, "In the coming days, the old man at the Dragon's Blood Lineage will be hosting his birthday celebration. I heard that he has invited Qin Lian from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing, so things will likely get heated."

At this point, he noticed the lost look on Li Luo's face. With a smile, he patiently explained the incident to Li Luo.

Li Luo finally understood after hearing the whole story.

"Qin Lian has a disciple named Chu Qing, who is one of the most talented amongst the young generation in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. She also has a daughter named Qin Yi, who possesses a ninth-grade water resonance and is known for her unparalleled beauty throughout the continent," Li Jingzhe elaborated.

"Grandpa, you mean Qin Lian will send those two to duel me?" Li Luo asked.

"Chu Qing is older than you, so he most likely won't be making any moves on you for the time being. But you will have to be careful when it comes to Qin Yi. Don't be seduced by her charm," Li Jingzhe joked.

Li Luo was at a loss for words. Although he had never met Qin Yi before, he had never seen anyone prettier than his girlfriend back home either.

After all these years spent with Jiang Qing'e, he was somewhat confident in his ability to control himself.

The conversation on this matter ended here. After casually chatting with his grandfather some more, he left the place fully satisfied.

As he watched Li Luo leave, Li Jingzhe grinned a little and pondered over it.

"Li Luo's acquired resonances... are truly special.

"Taixuan, what exactly happened in the ancient ruins?

"Heavenly Emperor Qin’s reaction was indeed a little exaggerated back then...far more than it should have been..."
