Chapter 0922: The Almighty Water Dragon Fang Sword

Weng!

There seemed to be water rippling off the surface of the light-blue Dragon Fang Sword as it gently rose into the air. At the same time, an overwhelming sword energy swept through the arena.

It was a sharp and endless wave of energy. When Lu Qingmei and the others looked at the Dragon Fang Sword, they felt like they had been submerged in a limitless ocean of sword energy.

Their existence was simply tiny and insignificant in comparison.

Unable to help it, they felt a sense of horror rising within their hearts. Compared to the Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner... this Duke Art was a thousand times more fearsome!

Was this Li Luo's true ace?

It seemed like no one in their whole generation would be able to take a strike from this sword.

All those who had previously thought that Li Luo was not fit to be the Dragon's Head had completely shut up by now. Even if Li Qingfeng had not sabotaged himself earlier, it would still be a real challenge for him to fend off this strike.

"Little Brother, what's this Duke Art? Is it from the Dragon's Fang Lineage?" Li Fengyi asked curiously with her eyes wide open.

In response, Deng Fengxian shook his head and said, "There's no records of such a Duke Art in Dragon's Fang Cave. Looking at its strength, it must be at least a Soul Ascension-grade. We only have a number of Soul Ascension-grade Duke Arts in Dragon's Fang Cave, and none of them look like this."

Li Jingtao smiled and said, "It must be our Third Brother's luck and destiny. This sword of his is truly formidable. I am afraid even my defense would falter before it."

With a bright smile, Li Fengyi also commented, "This battle between father and son will surely go down in the history of the Twenty Banners. With this, who'll dare to say that Little Brother is not fit to be the Dragon's Head?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she glanced over at Li Hongli. All the Banner Leaders from the Dragon's Blood Lineage were dumbfounded when they saw Li Luo’s trump card.

Originally, they were saying that Li Luo had only managed to become the Dragon's Head because of Li Qingfeng's mistake. However, that reason could no longer stand.

While everyone was surprised by this, Li Luo could sense the resonant power in his body depleting at an astonishing rate. He dared not drag this out any longer. His face turned serious, then he formed the necessary hand seals to make the sword lock onto Li Taixuan.

Weng!

The Water Dragon Fang Sword vibrated violently before a blue light flashed across the air. At the same moment, majestic sword energy was released into the air and quickly condensed around the body of the sword, forming a giant, blue dragon.

It was a gigantic aqua dragon!

The highly condensed sword energy was filled with unparalleled sharpness. It sliced through everything in its path, including worldly natural energy.

At the same time, it also held onto the special attributes of a water resonance. The most fearsome part of this art was not its lightning speed and deadly power. Rather, it was in its never-ending, inescapable ocean of sword energy. Even if one survived the unparalleled sharpness of the first strike, they would still be engulfed by the limitless ocean of sword energy. Then the target’s energy would continue to be slowly eroded. This would be a real challenge to handle, even for a two-pearl.

Roar!

The aqua dragon roared ferociously, with the ringing of swords mixed into it.

It then charged directly towards Li Taixuan without any hesitation.

At this point, the replica of Li Taixuan had stopped in his tracks and his face turned serious. He could clearly sense the danger coming from the aqua dragon.

He pulled himself back to create some distance between him and the dragon. At the same time, he rapidly formed hand seals, and the two radiant Heavenly Pearls behind him started rotating as fast as they could. Like two black holes on his back, they sucked in the worldly natural energy from the surroundings more aggressively than ever.

With such a high workload, the Heavenly Pearls seemed to be wailing as they rotated.

Enormous resonant power surged up within Li Taixuan's body, and he threw out his punch again.

It was the same Hundred Battles Dragon Fist. However, there were nine dragons this time!

Hundred Battles Dragon Fist, Nine Dragons Punch!

There were nine tyrannical dragon punches, and their resonant power surged into the skies.

Thanks to his Heavenly Dragon resonance and Greater Completion in the Hundred Battles Dragon Fist, the power of his dragon punch was on par with most Soul Ascension-grade Duke Arts.

Many of the spectators watched in awe as the two formidable forces clashed in the sky above the stone platform.

Bang!

An indescribable shockwave swept across the battlefield. The faces of many of the Banner Leaders that were standing nearby changed immediately and they retreated hastily. Nonetheless, they were still caught in the shockwave and sustained some injuries.

Regardless, their eyes remained fixed on the clash.

However, there was not much of a struggle it seemed. The aqua dragon was filled with utterly destructive power that smashed onto the dragon punches like a tsunami, drowning them upon contact. Within a few breaths, the dragon punches were completely annihilated.

The aqua dragon was like an apocalyptic flood that completely overwhelmed everything in sight.

After a dozen breaths or so, the dragon punches were completely wiped out.

Following this, the aqua dragon faced no more obstructions and charged directly towards the replica of Li Taixuan. It completely drowned him, and a part of it even went past, slicing the stone platform into two.

It was only then that the aqua dragon let out another draconic cry before disappearing in the air.

Li Luo landed back on the broken stone platform with a pale face. However, there was a hint of excitement and happiness hidden within his eyes. This was the first time he had used the water Dragon Fang Sword, and it was truly amazing.

He had finally seen the might of the so-called Embryonic Transcendent Duke Art for himself.

It seemed that no ordinary two-pearl would dare to take this sword head-on!

Although it had depleted a huge amount of his resonant power, it was all worth it.

As Li Luo watched the replica of Li Taixuan fade away, he whispered to himself, "Next time I meet Sister Qing'e, I can tell her that I easily defeated my father in his youth." She would surely look at him with admiration when that time came.

As Li Luo was praising himself for his victory, the elders from the different lineages had fallen into silence in the elevated platform above. Li Luo's sword had really taken them aback, even though they were already Dukes.

Such a terrifying sword energy could not be cultivated from an ordinary Duke Art.

This was minimally a Destiny-grade Duke Art!

Such a Duke Art was considered a treasure even within the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages. If it were found outside, it would surely cause a bloodbath as every Heavenly Emperor power would desire it.

However... To everyone’s knowledge, the Dragon's Fang Lineage had no such Destiny-grade Duke Art. As they pondered over it, they were reminded of Li Tianji's words earlier...

A Duke Art left by the Ancestor?

However, how could a mere Fiend Finisher like Li Luo cultivate such a high-grade Duke Art? The higher the grade of the Duke Art, the higher the difficulty in cultivating it. A Destiny-grade Duke Art was something that even a real Duke would have trouble cultivating.

Did this mean that Li Luo's talent with resonance arts was simply monstrous? This was even more impressive than Li Taixuan in the past.

At the same time, the elders from the Dragon's Blood Lineage had complicated looks on their faces. None of them had expected Li Luo to emerge as the winner of the Battle of the Dragon's Head, especially after Li Taixuan had squandered his time in the outer divine continent for so many years.

If he had grown up and cultivated in the Dragon's Fang Lineage since young, wouldn't he have become just like Li Taixuan? Completely dominating all his peers?

Was the Dragon's Fang Lineage really so lucky? First, they had Li Taixuan. Now they had Li Luo? Fortunately, there was the incident that made Li Taixuan leave, and his whereabouts were currently unknown. As for Li Luo, he had spent all his early years in an outer divine continent, meaning that his progress had undoubtedly been hindered. Otherwise, the reputation of Dragon's Fang Lineage would have completely overshadowed the Dragon's Blood Lineage.

As the elders thought about this, the five Lineage Chiefs had fallen into silence as well. After a while, the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Scale Lineage, Li Qingying, smiled and said, "Congratulations. The Dragon's Fang Lineage has gotten yet another genius. In the future, Li Luo's name will surely be well known throughout the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent."

With a wave of his hands, Li Jingzhe smiled and replied, "You're too kind with your words, Lineage Chief Qingying. He ultimately wasted a lot of time in the outer divine continent. It's still too early to say what will happen in the future. Besides, all the Heavenly Emperor powers have produced many outstanding talents in this generation. Li Luo's foundation is still one level below them."

Li Tianji, the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Blood Lineage, smiled a little and responded, "The art created by the Ancestor is truly amazing. The Dragon's Blood Lineage has a few Destiny-grade Duke Arts as well. Lineage Chief Jingzhe, would you be interested in a trade?"

In response, Li Jingzhe simply said, "The cultivation requirements for this art are really challenging. I am afraid Li Luo is the only one in the entire five lineages suited to cultivate it."

Clearly, he had meant to turn down Li Tianji's proposal for a trade. The Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation that the Ancestor had created was not complete. Therefore, it could not be considered a true Transcendent Duke Art. However, its power had far exceeded that of an ordinary Destiny-grade Duke Art. The crafty Li Tianji had really thought it through when he offered to trade an ordinary Destiny-grade Duke Art from the Dragon's Blood Lineage for it.

Besides, they would surely study how to counter the art once they had obtained it. This would be detrimental to Li Luo.

Hearing the reply, Li Tianji sighed a little and did not comment any further.

A majestic voice echoed in the air at this point. "Since the ninth battle has ended, it's time for us to conclude the Battle of the Dragon's Head.

"The winner of the ninth battle in the Scales Seizure is Li Luo.

"He has achieved nine victories and earned nine dragon scales. His name will be left behind in history for all of the future generations of the Twenty Banners to admire."

When the voice finished speaking, Li Luo looked up and saw the final, dazzling dragon-scale fall from the sky. This scale contained far more Heavenly Dragon Energy than the previous eight scales.

Li Luo smiled brightly at this point.

With nine dragon scales successfully obtained, his Sanctified Dragon's Body could be perfected.
