Chapter 0839: Occupying the Golden Dragon Pillar

Li Luo flickered past the thick mist, past the Bronze and Silver Dragon Pillars, and the Golden Dragon Pillar stood in his sight after a few minutes.

The Golden Dragon Pillar was hundreds of feet tall with immeasurable depth. Shrouded in thick mist, its bottom was hidden in the deepest part of the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool. There was an extremely ferocious energy surging from it that would have kept anyone far away from it.

Lifelike dragon imprints decorated the surface of the pillar, engraved on every side and angle. The imprints surrounded the pillar's body with a strange light glowing from each dragon scale. It was as if the dragon imprints were slowly swimming about and not inanimate. For a moment, Li Luo almost regarded it as a living thing.

His heart surged with anticipation as he stood in front of the Golden Dragon Pillar. Without any further hesitation, he jumped towards it.

As soon as he landed on the top part of it he could sense the sleeping Golden Dragon Pillar awakening, and its body started to vibrate. In the same moment, the golden dragon imprints around the pillar opened their eyes.

Roar!

A deep and low dragon howl exuding terrifying pressure resounded all around him.

In the next moment, Li Luo noticed that the dragon imprints started opening their maws. With the top part of the dragon pillar as the nexus, rays of gold light poured out at a speed that was neither too fast nor too slow.

Li Luo would be sheltered from external attacks once this gold light completely enveloped the entirety of the top of the pillar. This would mean that he had completely secured the Golden Dragon Pillar for himself.

However, it did not offer any protection before it completely enveloped the area. Without the gold light’s protection, Li Luo would be vulnerable if anyone came for him now. The Golden Dragon Pillar would then deem that the competition for it was not over and it might even halt the process completely.

This was one of the reasons why it was so challenging to compete for the Golden Dragon Pillar.

Unless one could completely dominate the other Banner Leaders and force them to give up fighting for the Golden Dragon Pillar, it would be extremely difficult to secure it with others' interference.

Li Luo watched the gold light envelope the area with a calm and composed face. However, he was feeling pretty anxious deep in his heart.

He hoped that the gold light could completely envelope the area before Li Qingfeng and the rest broke free from the water palace. In that case, the Golden Dragon Pillar would be in his pocket.

If they came out before then, there would be many more factors at play. His own resonant power and the power provided by Harmony had already been exhausted during his fight against Qin Yi earlier. If he still needed to compete with Li Qingfeng and the rest, he would have to rely on the strength of the Three-tailed Heavenly Wolf.

As Li Luo was lost in his thoughts, his gaze was fixed on the gold light that was slowly enveloping the pillar from bottom to top as time ticked by.

Unfortunately, good things did not last.

Just when the gold light had enveloped three quarters of the pillar, Li Luo felt a strong energy undulation coming from his back. He immediately turned around to take a look. In the distance, he could see ripples emerging from the huge water palace.

The water palace was beginning to become illusory.

This was a sign that it was about to disappear.

At the same time, wave after wave of strong energy pulses continued coming from the inner parts of the water palace.

It seemed like the Banner Leaders trapped inside it had defeated their clones one after another. After a prolonged period of struggling, the water palace was beginning to collapse.

Moreover, Qin Yi had a fierce battle with Li Luo earlier and did not have the strength to keep the water palace up for much longer. In fact, she might not even want to continue keeping it up. Now that Li Luo had gotten out of the palace, it had become pointless and might even help Li Luo obtain the Golden Dragon Pillar.

"What a narrow-minded lady. Wasn't she convinced by my almost perfect performance earlier?" Li Luo sighed helplessly.

At the same moment, the water palace started vibrating more violently. After a few breaths, it completely exploded with a thunderous boom and filled the air with glowing, blue sparkles.

Several figures started appearing one after another.

Firstly came Li Qingfeng.

Then the other Banner Leaders started appearing as well. They were all fuming with anger on their faces as they stared at Qin Yi with eyes of hostility. It was like they were about to surround her and attack without mercy.

"Lady Qin Yi, we treated you respectfully as our guest. Isn't it too rude of you to lay down a trap for us?" Lu Qingmei coldly said as she grabbed onto her glazed rod.

Originally, they had allowed Qin Yi to participate in the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool battle as well to compete for a Coiling Dragon Pillar. However, she had trapped all of them in the water palace instead. She was obviously not going after the Coiling Dragon Pillars, but trying to embarrass the younger generation of the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages in front of all the distinguished guests.

The other Banner Leaders were all similarly incensed as they glared angrily at Qin Yi.

Hearing this, Qin Yi's charming face showed some signs of apology. However, she did not explain herself any further, as her actions were indeed nasty no matter how one spun it.

Ultimately, this was Qin Lian's order. She had to obey it no matter what.

Nonetheless, the hint of apology on that beautiful and charming face of hers was enough to wipe out half the anger many of the male Banner Leaders felt.

Seeing this, Lu Qingmei could only shake her head secretly. “These guys are really unreliable.”

"Banner Leader Lu, don't worry. I will not interfere anymore in the coming battle for the Coiling Dragon Pillar," Qin Yi explained at this juncture.

Hearing this, Lu Qingmei raised her brows a little. There was no doubt about Qin Yi's strength. If she was willing to give up competing for the Coiling Dragon Pillars, this was truly great news for the rest of them.

However, why would she give up so suddenly?

Just as Lu Qingmei was pondering over it, someone in the distance shouted in surprise, "Hey! Why is there gold light enveloping the Golden Dragon Pillar? Is there someone up there?!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked. Even Lu Qingmei, who was usually calm, was unable to contain herself. Everyone looked over into the deepest part of the dragonbreath pool. Gazes piercing the thick mist, they all saw that the gold light was indeed enveloping the top of the golden pillar.

And there was a figure standing amidst the enveloping gold light.

Li Qingfeng's face changed immediately. He scrutinized the shadow in the enveloping, gold light and shouted in disbelief, "Is that Li Luo?"

"How is that possible?!"

"When did he get to the Golden Dragon Pillar?!" Deng Fengxian was also dumbfounded by this discovery. Weren't they all trapped in the water palace? How had Li Luo reached the Golden Dragon Pillar before everyone else?

Li Hongli's pretty face was also pretty gloomy as she looked over at Qin Yi and said coldly, "Lady Qin Yi, don't you have a deep grudge against Li Luo? Why did you let him out of the water palace first? Could it be that even Fairy Qin's heart has been moved by his handsome face?"

Her words were filled with bitter resentment. She was clearly very angry. After all, the clones in the water palace had given her a lot of trouble. Since Qin Yi was so powerful, how could Li Luo, who was weaker than them, break out of the water palace first?

Surely Qin Yi had let him off easy, right?

At this point, the other Banner Leaders started looking over oddly too. Was Li Luo really so charming? Enough for Qin Yi to act with mercy?

Li Qingfeng also frowned. At this juncture, all his composure and calm was largely wiped out. There was an inexplicable feeling surging in his heart.

Under all their puzzling gazes, Qin Yi could not help but clench her silver teeth tightly. She had let Li Luo off easy? No! She wished that she could string that guy up and shower him over and over again with her Ten Thousand Water Streams Slaughter! Taking a deep breath, Qin Yi's chest raised and fell as she calmly replied, "Banner Leader Li Hongli, you have misunderstood. I did not let Li Luo off easy. It was because he was very cautious and did not give me the chance to create a clone of himself. In the end, I could only appear with my true self and fight him. Unfortunately, I was narrowly defeated by him, so he broke free from the water palace first."

As soon as she finished her sentence, everyone was in disbelief.

Qin Yi was unable to stop Li Luo?!

Li Hongli's eyes were filled with suspicion.

On the other hand, Qin Yi sighed again as she explained, "Guys, you all may have underestimated Li Luo. Indeed, he may just be at the Greater Fiend Palace Tier, and you all can win easily in an individual battle. However, with the assistance of Harmony, the gap is considerably small. Moreover, Li Luo knows three kinds of Nine Revolutions Arts. Just on this point alone, I am afraid even Banner Leader Li Qingfeng wouldn't be his match."

"Three Nine Revolutions Arts?!" The pupils of the Banner Leaders shrank a little.

Even the faces of Li Qingfeng, Li Hongli, and Lu Qingmei changed after hearing this. The three of them knew very well how challenging it was to acquire a Nine Revolutions Art. Among them, only Li Qingfeng had gotten two, so how could Li Luo have obtained three?

Had he really kept his strength hidden that well?

"However, I had to expend quite a bit of energy in order to keep the water palace up too. This meant that I wasn't at my full strength when I fought against Li Luo. In that state, I wouldn't even be able to hold up against Banner Leader Li Qingfeng. That is why Li Luo managed to break through the water palace first. It really wasn't that surprising," Qin Yi continued. Li Qingfeng's expression softened a little after hearing these words.

At this juncture, Qin Yi's eyes lit up as she told them, "I won't be participating in the battle for the Coiling Dragon Pillars anymore. Please go ahead, guys. Speaking of which... the gold light around Banner Leader Li Luo has nearly enveloped the whole pillar."

When she finished her words, Li Qingfeng's face changed immediately. He blasted off in an instant and flew directly towards the Golden Dragon Pillar at his maximum speed. Although he did not know how Li Luo had gotten out of the water palace and defeated Qin Yi, this was the Golden Dragon Pillar that he was determined to get. He was not going to give it up to Li Luo now.
