The next day.
Early in the morning, Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e went to the Heavenly Dragon Treasury with Li Foluo.
"The Heavenly Dragon Treasure Pavilion is located in the center of the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion. All five lineages have appointed inspectors and experts to reside there." The three were soaring high in the sky as Li Foluo explained the rules.
"Oh yes, here are your Heavenly Dragon Jades."
It was at this point that Li Foluo took out two dark-golden, round jades. Characters were engraved on the jades, and if one looked carefully, they could see their names and their t.i.tles on it.
In the center of each jade was the carving of a coiled dragon, giving off a sense of mystery.
"These are the identification jades of the Dragon's Fang Guardians. Once you refine them with your blood essence, you can then enter the Heavenly Dragon Treasury to get a treasure. More importantly, it’s used to communicate with the other members of the Dragon's Fang Guardians."
He then turned towards Li Luo. "You cultivated the Draconic Atavism Scripture in order to utilize Harmony when you were in the Twenty Banners. In the Dragon's Fang Guardians, you only need the Heavenly Dragon Jades to form a battle formation. It’s called the Dragon's Fang Guardians' Dragon Fang Formation."
Now Li Luo understood that there was no need to utilize the Draconic Atavism Scripture in the Dragon's Fang Guardians. Simply refining the provided jade allowed everyone to combine their power.
This was definitely a much higher-level ability.
However, the creation of the Heavenly Dragon Jade was a secret of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. They didn’t have the means to create more, which was why each Guardian Army could only have ten thousand members.
Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e both sent a drop of blood essence into their Heavenly Dragon Jades. Very quickly, a wisp of blood could be seen within the jade, and they suddenly felt a sense of closeness and connection with it.
Additionally, if they delved into the connection, they could sense numerous other energies that were connected to theirs. It was clearly the auras of the other Dragon's Fang Guardians.
Jiang Qing'e had not experienced being in the Twenty Banners, so this sort of magical strength was a little wondrous and fascinating to her. Thus, she continued to play with the jade in her hand.
Li Foluo then asked, "What do you plan to redeem at the Heavenly Dragon Treasury?"
"I want a Duke Bergfried Art," Jiang Qing'e replied without hesitation as she had made her decision earlier.
The most important thing to a Duke was their Duke Bergfrieds. As the formation of each one would deplete a person's potential, no one truly knew how far they could go. Therefore, reducing the rate at which their potential was consumed was the top priority.
Utilizing Foundational Spirit Treasures and cultivating Duke Bergfried Arts were the only two ways to offset the depletion of one’s potential.
Thus, Jiang Qing'e's request was something Li Foluo supported. Furthermore, she was very serious when it came to cultivation, and he greatly appreciated that. Despite having three ninth-grade light resonances, she never slacked off, as doing so would be a waste of her precious potential.
"Duke Bergfried Arts are split into three grades: higher, middle, and lower. Twenty thousand dragon essence is enough for a middle-grade Duke Bergfried Art."
Jiang Qing'e didn't mind. So be it, then. She wanted a second Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried, so she had to make sure her potential remained intact.
"Grand Commander Li Luo, what about you?"
"Are there quasi ninth-grade spirit liquids and purifying lights?" Li Luo asked. His woodearth resonance had now reached the upper eighth-grade, so he would need quasi ninth-grade spirit liquids and purifying lights to evolve it.
Li Foluo cooly replied, "Quasi ninth-grade spirit liquids and purifying lights might be rare, but they definitely exist. However, they cost at least thirty thousand dragon essence, comparable to the price of an upper-grade Foundational Spirit Treasure."
Li Luo was left speechless. If his monthly allowance was only a thousand dragon essence, it would take him three years to obtain a bottle!
He could see that at the end of the day, one could never have enough dragon essence.
"I recommend that you take a Duke Art that fits you. You should be able to obtain a Soul Ascension-grade one. Cultivating one of those would greatly increase your strength," Li Foluo explained.
"Soul Ascension grade Duke Art... Hmm..." Li Luo murmured to himself as he began to think. He had not cultivated a Communion-grade one yet. The Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation was an Embryonic Transcendent Duke Art that far surpa.s.sed an upper Destiny-grade Duke Art. The Three Dragons’ Heavenly Banner Canon's individual component arts were only Communion-grade. When combined, they had the power of a lower Destiny-grade Duke art.
Thus, cultivating a Soul Ascension-grade Duke Art would round out his repertoire and would indeed be helpful.
He pondered over this until they arrived at the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion.
The Heavenly Dragon Pavilion was in the central district of Heavenly Dragon City. It was where the core of Heavenly Dragon Peak’s defensive ward was located and thus, no outsiders could enter it. As the trio approached, they could feel extremely strong energy undulations coming from the depths of the location, each and every one mightier than Li Foluo.
However, Li Foluo remained calm as he took out his Guardian General plaque. Once the energy undulations swept across and verified his ident.i.ty, they retreated.
"There are five inspectors that lead the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion. One of them is Li Zhiqiu, who is the Dragon's Blood Lineage's inspector. There are a few other peak Duke experts as well, and the entire lineup is quite magnificent. Heavenly Dragon City is a chaotic den full of dragons and snakes. Countless rogue cultivators come here to trade for goods, and they live by the law of the jungle. If there are no strong individuals here to keep them in check, they might very well dare to covet the treasures in the Heavenly Dragon Treasury," Li Foluo explained.
Li Luo silently licked his lips. He knew that despite how strong the guards and inspectors of the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion were, the true aces were the Five Guardian Armies.
This was because when they were combined as a single ent.i.ty, they could even challenge a King! f?ee???n?v??.com
Li Foluo brought the duo to a black building. After making their way through the halls, they came across a gigantic lake decorated with a humongous statue of a coiled dragon. On top of the head of the dragon was an open golden door, with several large words engraved on it that shone brightly.
Heavenly Dragon Treasury
The three paused outside of the door. There was a middle aged male sitting cross-legged in the doorway, taking note of the individuals going to and fro.
"The two of you can go in by yourselves and find what you need. I'll wait for you outside," Li Foluo said.
Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e nodded. They flew over to the man guarding the door and handed over their Heavenly Dragon Jades. After a quick inspection, he allowed them to enter.
The two exchanged looks full of curiosity before entering the treasury stuffed full of rare items.
Once they entered, it seemed as though they entered a different s.p.a.ce, and their eyes widened. There were countless tall paG.o.das before them, each one giving off scintillating light.
Atop each of the paG.o.das was a sign.
Treasured Artifact PaG.o.da, Duke Arts PaG.o.da, Spirit Liquids and Purifying Lights PaG.o.da, Bergfried Arts PaG.o.da...
Each one was a dazzling sight to see, demonstrating the rich foundation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li.
When Li Luo first entered the Dragon's Fang Lineage, he had entered the Dragon's Fang Cave, which contained all of the Duke Arts of their lineage. The scene before him made the previous experience seem almost dest.i.tute and shabby in comparison!
It was clear that the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li placed significant emphasis on the Five Guardian Armies. All of the lineage's unique arts were in these paG.o.das.
There were also individuals from the other guardian armies in the Heavenly Dragon Treasury. When they saw Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e, they had looks of shock in their eyes. Most of them were unsurprisingly directed towards Jiang Qing'e as her sheer beauty was stunning.
Jiang Qing'e completely disregarded the gazes as she told Li Luo in a low voice, "I'll head over to the Bergfried Arts PaG.o.da to take a look."
Li Luo nodded and smiled before parting ways. Then he made his way towards the Duke Arts PaG.o.da.
He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to take a look at how unique the Duke Arts from the other lineages were.
Li Luo was greeted by a dazzling light as soon as he stepped into the Duke Arts PaG.o.da. Its inside was vast and brilliant.
He squinted to acclimatize himself to the brightness. Slowly, the blinding scenery in front of him cleared up.
There were rows of towering jade shelves inside the paG.o.da. There were multiple grids on each shelf, and a s.h.i.+ny jade tablet sat quietly on each grid.
The paG.o.da’s size indicated that the inside collection was far beyond one's imagination. Some people were lost in thought amidst the rows of shelves. Without a doubt, they were members of the Five Guardian Armies who had arrived earlier in search of their Duke Arts.
