Chapter 0854: Semi-completed Grade
Three days later.
Li Luo's breakthrough attempt finally concluded.
As he slowly opened his eyes within the cultivation chamber, the torrents of resonant power around him gradually subsided. In the end, it all returned into his body.
When he looked down, he extended both of his arms forward and started to channel his resonant power.
At this moment, a golden light flowed between his flesh and blood, dyeing his skin in a faint, golden glow, making it seem indestructible.
Li Luo continued to channel his resonant power, and the golden glow became more and more distinct. Finally, faint, glazed patterns appeared on it.
The glazed patterns were crystal clear as they flowed between his flesh and blood.
When Li Luo examined them, a smile appeared on the edge of his mouth. After his breakthrough to the Gold Fiend Tier, he had used all the remaining strands of abstruse fiend light together with the Nine Aperture Rock of Gold to temper his body in an attempt to reach the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier.
Unfortunately, he did not manage to completely break into the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier in the end.
That being said, he could be considered to be touching upon that realm. Strictly speaking, the emergence of the glazed patterns meant that he was halfway into the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier.
Oddly enough, this actually worked out well for him as he had previously promised Li Jingzhe to attain the Tri-Radiance Gla.s.s.
That was the highest peak in the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier. However, he was unable to attain it with his current foundation.
Looking at his current state, he could carefully continue to cultivate and aim to completely reach the highest point of the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier once another opportunity arose.
"This is really an unprecedented breakthrough,” Li Luo said with a face full of joy as this breakthrough was the fastest since he had started his cultivation journey.
His starting point was the Greater Fiend Palace Tier, and he had zoomed past the Silver Fiend and Gold Fiend Tiers. In the end, he had landed halfway into the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier directly.
Anyone would be shocked to hear about how many tiers he had skipped.
He had spent great amounts of time and effort in preparation for this breakthrough, and he had managed to maximize the benefits of his triple resonances.
It was fortunate that all his hard work had paid off in the end. Based on his own estimate, Li Luo felt that he should be around the level of the Two Star Hall seniors in the Astral Sage College with his current strength.
Two Star Hall students were mostly comparable to people at the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier.
If he had shown such progress back in the Astral Sage College, it would surely have caused a huge commotion. He dared to say that he would have been the first one to progress so quickly since the Astral Sage College was formed.
Ordinarily speaking, such a cultivation level was something only the elite students in the Three Star Hall could reach.
However, that was just a hypothetical comparison. After all, Li Luo was in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent now. He had all the support and resources from the Dragon's Fang Lineage. It was no surprise that his cultivation progress would be record-breaking compared to the students of the Astral Sage College. If he really wanted to compare, he should do so with the various top talents in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent.
Regardless, skipping tiers had really helped to narrow the gap in strength between him and the other top talents like Li Qingfeng, Lu Qingmei, and Deng Fengxian.
"Looking at things now, it seems like life in the outer divine continent was really a waste of time."
Li Luo sighed as he thought about it. It was not due to his lack of talent that he had fallen behind so much compared to Li Qingfeng and the rest. It was simply because they had much more cultivation resources available to them.
For example, rare opportunities like the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool... There was nothing even remotely similar in the Xia Kingdom.
At this moment, Li Luo stood up with his fists tightly clenched. He could clearly sense that his body was filled with enormous power now. Based on his own estimate, he was no less powerful than the Two Sonic Pulse level achieved with his Thunderpeal Avatar.
If he combined these two together, his physical strength would surely reach an amazing height. However... it would still pale in comparison to Qin Yi and her Invincible Water Jade Armor. Hers was a Soul Ascension-grade body-tempering Duke Art after all.
Unless he was able to cultivate his Thunderpeal Avatar to the highest level, Five Sonic Pulses, it would likely reach Qin Yi’s level.
There was no other choice. Such was a limitation due to the different grades of cultivation arts.
After Li Luo clenched his fingers tightly into a fist, he punched out speedily to the front. His fist left an afterimage, and the air exploded with a low, ringing sound.
He was very pleased with the result. This breakthrough had really strengthened him a lot. It was worth the pain and effort he had taken to acc.u.mulate thirty-five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light. After he was done, he did not hang around any longer. He walked straight out of the cultivation chamber, and the maids were all ready with food prepared. He gobbled down the meal after starving for the past three days.
After he was satiated, one of the maids came forward and told him that the Third Hall Master had come to visit.
"Aunt Yun?"
As soon as Li Luo heard about it, he dashed down to receive her personally.
Li Rouyun was surprised as soon as she saw Li Luo. "Looks like you have broken through successfully," she said,
"Judging by the golden glow around your body, coupled with the blood and muscles filled with vitality, I a.s.sume you have reached the Gold Fiend Tier," she stated.
Li Rouyun was a Duke after all. She could easily determine this from the resonant power that still lingered in Li Luo's body and had not completely died down yet.
"Just by a stroke of luck."
Li Luo answered humbly as he guided Li Rouyun to her seat.
Li Rouyun was not too surprised about it. She knew that Li Luo had won a total of seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath. That was more than sufficient for him to achieve the breakthrough.
"What's brought you here today, Aunt Yun?" Li Luo asked after they had chatted for a while.
Li Rouyun nodded a little before she replied, "I heard that the four banners will be heading out to the Dark Domain in the western region."
It seemed like the mission for the four banners had been announced while Li Luo was shut in for his breakthrough for the past few days.
Li Luo nodded in response.
"I have not been to the western region in a long time," Li Rouyun said with a sigh.
"Aunt Yun, you used to live in the western region?" Li Luo asked curiously.
"The Li clan that I belonged to is an indirect bloodline. The western region is our home. However, I’ve rarely had the time to go back ever since I was placed in charge of the Green Nether Hall."
Li Rouyun smiled and took out a jade box from her pocket sphere. She pa.s.sed it over to Li Luo and said, "If you're going to the western region for the mission, you can reach out to the Li clan if you require any help. In addition, can you help me pa.s.s these pills to my little niece, please?"
Hearing this, Li Luo's heart twitched a little. He remembered the first time he met Li Rouyun. On that day, he needed to alleviate the Sacrificial Ignition of Jiang Qing'e's Heart of Light. Li Rouyun had taken out a rare treasure, which he could tell from the words of Li Zhiqiu from the Dragon's Blood Lineage, that was originally meant for her niece.
"Sure, Aunt Yun. Don't worry, it's not a big deal."
Li Luo nodded and continued, "What's the name of this sister cousin of mine? What's her injury? If you need my help, feel free to ask, Aunt Yun."
Hearing this, Li Rouyun sighed and then replied, "That little girl is named Li Lingjing. She was the pride of our clan. If not for her accident, she would surely have been chosen to enter the four banners of the Dragon's Fang Lineage. Her future was just as bright as mine."
"What happened?" Li Luo asked.
With a bitter look on her face, Li Rouyun continued, "A few years ago, she went to the Dark Domain for training. She got injured by the Others there, and her foundation was damaged. Her cultivation progress has been really slow ever since. Over the years, the reputation of a former genius has become her burden, and many people that were jealous of her talent openly mock her these days for wasting all the resources the family has spent on her."
Hearing this, Li Luo opened his mouth wide. A former genius that became trash. He was familiar with this story. This cousin of his was not in a simple situation.
