Chapter 0814: A Trace of Sword Intent

Within the cultivation chamber in Li Luo's residence.

Li Luo was seated cross-legged. Before him was the mottled dragon fang that radiated a weak but mystical light.

He was channeling his resonant power into the dragon fang, and the cry of a sword could be heard in his ears all the while. Li Luo had fallen into a trance, and when he concentrated upon this sound, he found himself immersed in a vast, starry world that was filled with boundless amounts of sword intent.

It was as though the primal chaos had just been split apart in the galaxy created by sword intent, leading to its genesis. The sight of it was vast and majestic, and as the galaxy revolved, even the stars that fell into the streams of sword intent were obliterated into nothingness.

Li Luo's presence was like a speck of dust within this grand world, and just a mere strand of sword intent brushing past him could wipe him out of existence.

Although Li Luo was taken aback by the sheer grandeur of this sight, his heart remained calm. He had already felt the oppressive might of this sword intent many times over the past few days.

Ever since he obtained the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation, he had delved deep into it with all his energy.

This Duke Art was of an extremely high grade, and the difficulty to learn it was several magnitudes greater than the Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner.

The way to cultivate the art was to allow one's mind to submerge itself within this galaxy of sword intent and comprehend its terror. Once one attained enlightenment, they would form a strand of sword intent that could be combined with their resonance affinities and successfully refine the Dragon Fang Swords.

This required a certain giftedness in resonance arts.

If one did not possess enough talent, it would simply be impossible to even comprehend a strand of the sword intent. If one forced things, they might receive backlash and be injured.

The good thing was that Li Luo had always been talented in this aspect.

His efforts over the previous days had resulted in him receiving some injury. However, he continued to attempt to gain enlightenment, and he had gradually built up a resistance to the absolute terror of the sword intent and no longer felt fear towards it.

The next step would be to gradually find a suitable opportunity to take things to the next level.

He was not in a rush, as he had not managed to obtain a Dragon Fang Essence. Thus, he would not be able to truly refine a Dragon Fang Sword even after obtaining a strand of sword intent.

Just as Li Luo had these thoughts in mind, his expression changed.

He could vaguely feel that the terrifying sword intent seemed to have emitted some sort of cry that caused the sword intent to flood into every crevice and location within the world.

His mental state was also subject to this, and he felt his mind crumble slightly in the face of sheer pain.

However, he held steadfast, choosing to not give up so easily.

After resisting for an unknown amount of time, his mind was eventually worn down and defeated. Li Luo opened his eyes with a pale complexion.

His breathing was ragged and it felt as though his entire body had been gashed to varying degrees. The cold sweat on his forehead beaded and dripped down slowly.

As he wiped his sweat off, his pupils held a trace of lingering fear.

The sword intent was simply too terrifying.

Despite the fact that he had been buffeted with endless amounts of sword intent in the past few days, this sudden outburst was still hard to endure.

"As expected of a Transcendent-grade Duke Art..."

Li Luo sighed. The galaxy of sword intent was significantly harder to cultivate than the Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner.

After which, he stood up.

"Hmm?" At this moment, he seemed to have noticed something as soon as he inspected his body with his mind. There seemed to be a trace of mysterious energy within it.

This energy even gave off a familiar vibe.

Was it a trace of the sword intent?

However, this was significantly weaker when compared to the sheer amount of sword intent he had faced previously.

Despite this, Li Luo was filled with unrestrained joy. This meant that he had finally managed to obtain his first strand of sword intent and he would be able to eventually refine his first Dragon Fang Sword. He was off to a great start.

Li Luo continued to suss out the strand of sword intent. Although it was meager, it radiated a cold air that caused him to feel a little bit of fear.

After observing it for a while longer, he stopped with a sense of satisfaction in his heart. It seemed his bitter cultivation had reaped rewards.

As he got up from the cultivating platform, he murmured to himself, "Tomorrow is the Dragon's Blood Lineage's Mountain Ruling Chief's celebration."

He was not particularly interested in it due to the situation with his father in the past. He held not much goodwill towards this Dragon's Blood Lineage. However, it would mark the opening of the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool, and that was something he held a deep longing towards.

This was a hard-to-obtain opportunity, and not every generation managed to enjoy its benefits.

Since his grandfather had fought for this opportunity for him, he had to take advantage of it.

Li Luo composed himself as he inspected the abstruse fiend lights in his resonant palace. He now had a total of ten thousand strands of abstruse fiend light after all his efforts.

Most individuals would be at the stage of using these strands of abstruse fiend light to break into the Fiend Body Tier. However, Li Luo had not done so, only determined to continue accumulating more.

His body possessed three resonant palaces and therefore could originally hold up to thirty thousand strands of abstruse fiend light. Now that his waterlight resonance had reached the eighth-grade, his capacity had increased once again to thirty-five thousand strands.

This was a frightening amount.

Li Luo could feel that out of all his peers in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, there was basically no one who could establish a foundation as sturdy as his when entering the Fiend Body Tier, especially if he managed to reach his capacity.

Not even someone with a ninth-grade resonance could do so!

This gave Li Luo yet another problem, however. His path upwards would now take a longer amount of time.

Twenty-five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light would easily require a year's worth of cultivation time.

And time was scarce.

Thus, the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool was exceptionally important to him. Perhaps even a matter of life and death.

"I have to obtain a Coiling Dragon Pillar no matter what and fight for two strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath." This was Li Luo's personal aim.

Two strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath would equate to ten thousand strands of abstruse fiend light, cutting his massive requirements by almost half and saving him endless amounts of time.

With this in mind, Li Luo left the cultivation chamber and began to make preparations for the next day.

.......

The next day.

The entire Dragon's Fang Mountain seemed to have come alive. The Mountain Ruling Chief's birthday celebration was something the Dragon's Fang Lineage had to show adequate respect for. In the end, the individual was still the strongest expert in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages.

Within Dragon's Fang Mountain.

Li Luo led the Green Nether Banner to arrive on time with the other three banners. Seeing so many banner members present was quite the spectacle.

The four banners would not have arrived with such fanfare if not for the allure of the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool. With such a tantalizing prize before them, they would naturally have to go all out.

This birthday celebration had also invited guests from countless powers from throughout the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. The performance of the banners at the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool would demonstrate the might of this generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li.

In front of the four banners was a massive stone formation. It was covered in runes that began to devour endless amounts of worldly natural energy.

This was the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages' transportation formation. It would not be activated in normal times, and only in situations of great importance or urgency would they utilize it.

Li Luo looked around him before posing a question towards Zhao Yanzhi. "Where are the Dragon's Fang Guardians?"

Li Luo had always held a trace of curiosity towards them. They were the true elites of the Dragon's Fang Lineage after all.

"They will not appear. They are almost never at the headquarters as they have special assignments," Zhao Yanzhi softly replied.

"What sorts of assignments?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"Suppressing and cleansing Others."

Li Luo was slightly taken aback by her answer.

"Others appear in the inner divine continent?"

He had thought that with the number of experts in the inner divine continent, the Others would have long been vanquished into extinction.

Zhao Yanzhi looked at him strangely. "The amount of Others in the inner divine continent is even greater than in the outer divine continents. In fact, they are also stronger. With how vast a territory like the Dragon's Fang Domain is, there are numerous cracks in the world that attract the attention of the Others. If they are not cleansed quickly, an Other Disaster will erupt, leading to countless losses. In the future, we might be assigned to such a task."

Li Luo nodded slightly. It looked like things were not as peaceful as he had expected.

As they spoke, Li Jingzhe suddenly appeared before all of them, and the massive group quietened down.

Behind Li Jingzhe followed Li Jinpan, Li Qingpeng, and the rest of the higher echelons of the Dragon's Fang Lineage.

Li Jingzhe swept his gaze throughout the crowd before pausing temporarily on Li Luo. He did not speak much, only waving his hand and giving out a single command.

"Head out." When his voice boomed, the formation trembled and exploded with a radiance that blanketed tens of thousands of meters.

The four banners began to move and entered the formation. With a final burst of radiance, all of the figures vanished.

As Li Luo felt space distort around him, he sucked in a deep breath, eyes full of anticipation.

"Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath... I'm coming for you!"
