Chapter 0761: Tremors Through the Crowd
Li Luo's unceremonious exit left the crowd in surprise.
Although there had been contestants in the past who ended up badly injured, they had all been able to walk out of the Dragon Stele in one piece. It was rare to see someone rolling out in such an embarrassing fashion like Li Luo.
Faced with such a sight, the crowd started laughing.
"Sub Leader, are you okay?"
Zhao Yanzhi stretched out a helping hand as she watched Li Luo worriedly.
Li Luo grabbed her hand and pulled himself back up. At this point, no one could read his expression as his face was still burnt from the lightning dragonbreath earlier.
"All good, everything went as expected," Li Luo answered calmly.
Hearing this, Li Shi and Mu Bi were left speechless. Such an ending was within his expectations?
"What was the result of the trial?" asked Zhao Yanzhi.
However, Li Luo did not reply this time. Instead, he turned around with one hand behind his back, staring straight back at the Dragon Stele with a serious look.
Zhao Yanzhi and the gang were puzzled by his behavior. Just as they were about to ask more questions, a bright stream of golden light shot out from the Dragon Stele, drawing everyone's attention.
The stream of golden light soared high up into the sky and could be seen from hundreds of miles away.
Subsequently, nine golden circles emerged around the golden stream of light, and words started to appear.
Everyone in the crowd watched in anticipation.
"Green Nether fifth division leader, Li Luo, has acquired the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Arts!"
This left everyone silent for a moment. Whether it was Zhao Yanzhi and the duo or Zhong Ling and the first division, everyone watched in disbelief.
Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Art!
“Li Luo passed the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial?!
“How could this be possible? He is just a puny Lesser Fiend Palace cultivator, so how could he have conquered the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath?!”
At this point, Zhong Ling's face turned gloomy, and he was unable to come to terms with this. He had actually attempted the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial but failed it. As such, he could not believe his own eyes. How could someone like Li Luo have succeeded?
As he looked down on Li Luo's shadow, it dawned upon him that the son of the Hall Master was much more threatening than he had initially thought.
The silence among the crowd only lasted for a brief moment before everyone exploded once again in newfound excitement.
All the members of the Green Nether Banner were amazed by this result and started to see Li Luo in a different light.
In the previous confrontation between Li Luo and Mu Bi, it might have been luck when the weak defeated the strong. However, now that Li Luo had obtained the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Arts, there was no more doubt about his strength.
After all, it had been countless years since anyone from the Green Nether Banner had obtained the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Art.
In fact, even among the Dragon's Blood Lineage, the only one to ever succeed in the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial was the Gold Blood Banner Leader with the blessing of their Lineage Chief. But things had changed. At long last, the Dragon's Fang Lineage had a new master in the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Arts.
This would undoubtedly cause quite a commotion in the Dragon's Fang Lineage, and even in the other four Lineages.
All the members of the Green Nether Banner knew in their hearts that the son of the Hall Master, who had recently just returned, was going to be famous in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages.
As expected, the Dragon Steles of the Twenty Banners were all connected. As such, the Dragon Stele on the back hill of the Green Nether drill grounds was not the only one that reacted to the completion of the trial. Every other Dragon Stele experienced the same phenomenon—a golden stream of light had burst out from them as well.
At the Dragon's Fang Lineage, Violet Spirit drill grounds...
Li Jingtao, who had been training his banner members, turned and watched the golden stream of light in disbelief.
Similarly, the eight thousand Violet Spirit Banner members also watched in surprise.
"Is that...."
"Someone cleared the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial?"
"But who?!”
"From the Green Nether Banner? The fifth division leader, Li Luo?!”
"Who is that?"
"You are too outdated. Li Luo is the son of the Third Master, and he just came back from an outer divine continent a few days ago!"
"Oh?"
"Wow, he is pretty impressive. He cleared the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial as soon as he returned. No wonder he is the son of the Third Master!"
Amidst the chattering crowd, Li Jingtao let out a pleasant smile, fully satisfied with such a result. "My Little Brother sure is talented. Even I have not mastered the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Arts." 𝗳𝔯𝒆e𝘸𝗲𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃𝘦l. 𝒄o𝓂
At the Dragon's Fang Lineage, Crimson Cloud drill grounds....
Donned in red battle dress, Li Fengyi was also looking at the golden stream of light in amazement.
"As expected of Third Uncle's child. Not only is he handsome, he is also so capable. Although his resonant power is a little weak, his potential is extraordinary. He will definitely become an important pillar of the Dragon's Fang Lineage in the future."
Li Fengyi pursed her lips and smiled lightly. She was very satisfied with her younger brother. When the opportunity arose in the future, she would definitely bring him to the other Lineages to show off.
At the Dragon's Fang Lineage, Gold Light drill grounds...
On the east side of the drill grounds, there was a lake with a green mountain in its reflection.
On the lake was a tree trunk drifting peacefully. And on the tree trunk was a man clothed in white, sitting cross-legged and fishing. When one looked into his eyes, there was a dominating aura of strength and power.
This was none other than Deng Fengxian, the leader of the Gold Light Banner.
Currently, the Gold Light Banner was the strongest banner in the Dragon's Fang Lineage. With his overwhelming strength, Deng Fengxian had risen to the top among the countless competitors and became their leader.
In that sense, one could say he stood as one of the strongest among the younger generation in the Dragon's Fang Lineage, even stronger than Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi.
Many among the younger generation would have heard of him as the formidable white-clothed, gilded armor Deng Fengxian.
In fact, his overwhelming strength easily made him one of the strongest not just in the Dragon's Fang Lineage, but even among the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages.
At this moment, his fishing rod trembled slightly and he raised his head in astonishment. He then looked towards the golden stream of light that had shot up into the sky.
"Oh, someone from the Dragon's Fang Lineage managed to clear the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath trial?
"Li Luo? Isn’t that the son of the Hall Master?
"Not bad, he managed to clear a trial of such difficulty even though he is only at the Lesser Fiend Palace Tier.
"I wonder which Nine Revolutions Art he got."
While he was surprised by the news, Deng Fengxian kept his composure, unlike Zhong Ling and the others. After all, there was still a huge gap in strength between a Lesser Fiend Palace Tier like Li Luo and him. At present, Deng Fengxian's goal was to become the head of the Four Banners of the Dragon's Fang Lineage. Once he achieved it, Li Luo would be considered his subordinate, and it would be fantastic to have such a strong and capable subordinate assisting him. This would definitely aid him as he faced off against the heads of the other Four Lineages in the future.
When he came to this conclusion, he calmly shifted his attention back to fishing.
This stunning news disseminated far and wide, not just among the four banners of the Dragon's Fang Lineage, but also towards the headquarters of the other four Lineages and the sixteen other banners.
Like Zhao Yanzhi had mentioned, Li Luo's name would become well known across the world after this news.
Back in the bamboo forest at the back of the Dragon's Fang Lineage, Li Jingzhe, who was planting seeds, took a look up towards the Green Nether Peak and saw the announcement too. A pleasant smile surfaced on his aged face.
"Taixuan, your son is as good as your youthful self."
He smiled as he lowered his head and went back to plowing the soil and planting new seeds.
"Don't worry. Since you chose to send him back to the Dragon's Fang Lineage, I will surely take good care of him and unleash his full potential. I gave in for the sake of the overall situation back then, but no matter what happens now, I will not compromise again."
Li Jingzhe thought to himself as he continued to care for the seedlings with a gentle smile on his aged face.
