Chapter 0923: Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's BodyChapter 0923: Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body
In the end, the Battle of the Dragon's Head for this generation of the Twenty Banners concluded in an unexpected way.
Li Luo, the dark horse, had completely stolen the limelight this time.
From now on, no one in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages would dare to question this youth that had just returned to the Dragon's Fang Lineage half a year ago.
His right to be the Dragon's Head had been affirmed in his battle against the replica of Li Taixuan. Everyone understood that even though it was just an energy replica, the copy of Li Taixuan possessed seventy to eighty percent of the original's strength. The fact that Li Luo had beaten it proved that he had the strength to stand on par with the man who had dominated everyone in his generation.
This was a truly formidable feat.
After all, Li Taixuan was considered one of the top three strongest Dragon's Heads throughout history.
The sheer fact that he had won demonstrated that he was stronger than Li Qingfeng now.
This was clear from the speechless reactions of the Dragon's Blood Lineage elders. There were no other words of rebuttal that they could come up with at this point.
Regardless, Li Luo was not really bothered by what others thought of him.
His victory against the Li Taixuan replica was largely due to the power of the Water Dragon Fang Sword, which far exceeded his imagination. He had only expected a single sword to be as strong as a Communion-grade Duke Art. However, his sword earlier... was definitely a Soul Ascension-grade or higher.
At the end of the day, it was because the grade of the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation was too high. Even though a single sword was not enough to showcase the true strength of the art, its sword energy was incomparably fearsome.
It seemed like its true power had been misunderstood since no one had cultivated it in the past.
Li Luo raised his head, and his eyes were filled with anticipation. After the Battle of the Dragon's Head, there was another exciting segment—the awakening of their Sanctified Dragon's Body.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat they had obtained at the Dragon's Ascent was just the embryonic form of the Sanctified Dragon's Body. They received the dragon sigils then. Now that the Battle of the Dragon's Head had concluded, they had obtained the dragon scales required to truly awaken the Sanctified Dragon's Body.
Weng!
At this moment, the stone dragon that was as huge as a mountain suddenly started moving. It turned to face them and started to slowly open its maw.
Bang!
A giant, gray strand of dragonbreath shot out from its mouth like a raging storm.
In the blink of an eye, all the Banner Leaders on stage were surrounded by it. Following this, the dragon scales that they had gathered started floating into the air above them before melting rapidly.
Enormous amounts of Heavenly Dragon Energy flowed outwards and submerged them.
As Li Luo observed the condensed Heavenly Dragon Energy flooding the area, his eyes lit up.
He had nine dragon scales slowly sublimating, which created the highest density of Heavenly Dragon Energy amongst those in his group. This was more than twice the amount of Heavenly Dragon Energy that Li Qingfeng was getting.
At the same time, the dragon sigils between their eyebrows started to spin, pulling in the Heavenly Dragon Energy with a mysterious force.
As the energy was absorbed, the dragon sigils started to light up.
There were nine pale, dark dragon scales on Li Luo's dragon sigil. After some time, they brightened up, looking like they had been awakened.
Along with the reactivation, a large amount of pure energy flowed from his dragon sigil to the other parts of his body. This boosted the vitality of his muscles, blood, and bones, and they greedily sucked in the nourishment.
He could even hear the ringing sound from his bones vibrating.
This was a sign of his body strengthening.
At this moment, Li Luo was completely immersed in this power-up.
The other Banner Leaders were also smiling in satisfaction as their bodies powered up. This was considered a necessary foundation for those within the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. It was a rare and precious opportunity given to those of the younger generation.
With the Sanctified Dragon's Body, their individual strength would be greatly boosted. It was the kind of opportunity that other forces with weaker foundations would have to spend a huge amount of time and effort fighting for.
After a while, the dragon sigil between Li Luo's brows was completely lit up. Seeing all nine dragon scales shining brightly was a truly dazzling sight.
A wave of suppression swept across the field at this moment with him as the center.
This grabbed the attention of the various Banner Leaders, including Li Qingfeng, who had just awakened. He frowned as he looked over towards Li Luo.
This was the innate dragonfear emitted from the Sanctified Dragon's Body.
With the Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body, Li Luo's dragonfear was undoubtedly the strongest. If one was not strong-willed, their strength would easily be weakened by twenty percent under it.
There were many eyes full of envy staring at the dazzling nine scales on Li Luo's dragon sigil.
This included Li Qingfeng. Having the Sanctified Dragon's Body was not rare in the five lineages. After all, it was rewarded to all twenty Banner Leaders. Many people in the Five Guardian Armies had cultivated it as a result.
However, the Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body was different. It was the perfected form of the art, and its power far exceeded that of an ordinary Sanctified Dragon's Body. Li Luo was like a tiger with wings after obtaining this art.
"That guy!" Li Qingfeng watched with gloomy eyes. He no longer had the composure and confidence he used to have after witnessing the battle between Li Luo and Li Taixuan's replica. He dared not belittle Li Luo anymore.
That unique Dragon Fang Sword was something that even Li Taixuan could not fend off. If it were him... he might simply have died before it's almighty strike!action
Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that Li Luo would be the true leader of the Twenty Banners from now on.
Over at Li Luo's side, he was not bothered by Li Qingfeng's unwilling stare at all. He simply immersed himself within his newly obtained Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith a single thought, the dragon sigil lit up and energy dragon wings that were dozens of feet long unfurled from his back.
This was yet another form of insurance when he had to run for his life.
Of course, the most important part was... the dragon's might.
Li Luo clenched his fists tightly. Huge amounts of energy surged up and flowed from his sigil towards the other parts of his body. This was the dragon's might from the Sanctified Dragon's Body.
With the perfect Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body, he could now utilize the power of nine dragons to assist him.
"I wonder if my body can withstand both the stress of Divine Elephant Power Level Three and the Nine Dragons’ Might at the same time?" Li Luo thought about it. In the past, his physical body had suffered great injury when he attempted to use Divine Elephant Power Level Three. He had to use various recovery resonance arts to withstand it. This had only improved after he reached the Fiend Body Tier.
Without a doubt, the Nine Dragons’ Might was a formidable force too. If he used it together with Divine Elephant Power Level Three, his body would be under tremendous stress.
However, this was a small thing compared to the huge power he had gained.
In a life and death situation, the tearing of his muscles was nothing compared to losing his life.
As another thought flashed across Li Luo's mind, the dragon sigil between his eyebrows gradually dimmed down. After a while, it completely disappeared along with the dragonfear emanating from his body and the energy dragon wings.
It was a truly pleasant surprise for Li Luo to obtain the Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body. However, the most important part was obtaining the Dragon's Head and, along with it, the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus that he had been wishing for.
If not for the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus, his heart would have been worried to no end, instead choosing to follow Jiang Qing'e to the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College.
Fortunately, he had gotten his hands on it after half a year of hard work.
At this moment, pillars of light fell from the sky once again. They completely shrouded Li Luo and the rest before the surrounding space started distorting. Soon, they were out of the stone dragon space.
Li Luo made no attempt to resist at all. His uptight body slowly relaxed and he heaved a sigh of relief.
When he relaxed, Jiang Qing'e’s face appeared in his mind.
"Sister Qing'e, I will find a way to deliver the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus to you once I get my hands on it."
