Chapter 1225: Dragon Blood Atavism Art
"Great Dragon Nascent Soul Art, quasi-Destiny-grade. Along with other materials, one uses their dragon blood as a catalyst to create a nascent soul. This allows one to raise their dragon resonance that is below the lower ninth-grade by half a grade. Sixty thousand dragon essence.
"Dragon Rearing Art, lower Destiny-grade. This requires one to possess a wood resonance. One can inject dragon's blood into their wood resonance and raise a real blood dragon. This blood dragon can protect the user and even battle the enemy amongst many other uses. Ninety thousand dragon essence. Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))
"Dragon Blood Atavism Art, upper Destiny-grade. Allows one to trace back to the source of their bloodline, transforming into a Heavenly Dragon and gaining all of the Heavenly Dragon's might. 150,000 dragon essence."
Li Luo was dumbfounded as he stared at the three crimson jade tablets in front of his eyes. His breathing had become heavier from the inflow of new information. He had come across many enchanting Duke Arts on his way here, but the three scrolls in front of him were in a class of their own. Even the quasi-Destiny-grade Great Dragon Nascent Soul Art was multiple times stronger than the ones he had come across so far.
Destiny-grade—true to the label, each Duke Art of that grade was powerful enough to change one's destiny.
"Increasing all dragon resonances under the lower ninth grade by half a grade..." Li Luo swallowed his saliva. This included the quasi ninth-grade, right? It was truly rare for a quasi-Destiny-grade Duke Art to have such a spectacular effect.
Although it was just an improvement of half a grade, the impact was significant.
"The Dragon Rearing Art too... It's unique and requires one to have a wood resonance... Isn't it perfect for me? As for the Dragon Blood Atavism Art, the Heavenly Dragon energy within my blood is really pure. If I cultivated this art, would I regress into a real Heavenly Dragon?"
The last one made Li Luo shake in excitement. He had only experienced a half-dragon state when he borrowed the power of the True Dragon Pill. Back then, his strength, defenses, and speed had experienced an astonishing boost. If the half-dragon state was that strong, how terrifying would a real Heavenly Dragon state be? Originally, Li Luo was very satisfied with the Dragon Blood Affliction Art. However, the three Destiny-grade Duke Arts had shown him how different things could be.
It was no wonder the Dragon's Blood Lineage had always maintained their position as the Mountain Ruling Lineage. Their foundation was truly stronger than that of the Dragon's Fang Lineage.
Upper Destiny-grade. This was the highest-grade Duke Art that Li Luo had ever seen apart from the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation, which couldn't really be classified.
It was said that the Dragon's Blood Lineage had a real Transcendent-grade Duke Art created by the Ancestor himself. It was only accessible to the five Lineage Chiefs though, so the Dragon's Blood Lineage did not store it in the Heavenly Dragon Treasury.
"I want to take all of them so badly!"
Li Luo's heart was pounding in his chest. After a while, he sighed regretfully. Right now, he did not even have a single bit of dragon essence on hand. Even the Dragon Blood Affliction Art would be taken on credit. No matter how much he wanted the Destiny-grade Duke Arts, it was simply impossible for him to get them.
Nonetheless, he now had something to look forward to. Once he had accumulated enough dragon essence, he would come back to take them home.
"I am getting my hands on the Dragon Blood Atavism Art no matter what!"
Li Luo cheered himself on in his heart. He could pass on the other two Duke Arts, but the Dragon Blood Atavism Art was simply too tempting. He knew that the purity of his Heavenly Dragon Blood was somewhat unmatched, so he felt that this art was a perfect fit for him.
Jiang Qing'e sighed a little in her heart. She looked at the last jade shelf at the end of the row. There was a small tree that looked like it was made of glass. The tree was bathed in an extraordinary radiance with a hint of a mysterious charm.
The only caveat was that the tree was completely bare. It seemed to have lost all of its vitality.
As Jiang Qing'e studied the small tree, her eyes suddenly lit up. She whispered to herself, "Is this... a Divine Spirit Treasure Tree?"
Her heart skipped a beat as she reached out for the jade tablet to read up on it.
The Divine Spirit Treasure Tree was originally a top-grade Foundational Spirit Treasure. However, its origin was corrupted by a True Devil Other, so its grade fell to the upper-grade. Forty thousand dragon essence.
"I knew it..." Jiang Qing'e recalled that this Divine Spirit Treasure Tree was extremely rare. How could it be a mere upper-grade Foundational Spirit Treasure? Its origin had been corrupted, which led to its qualities deteriorating.
"An item ruined by a True Devil Other... If we can cleanse its corruption, this item will definitely revert to top-grade." Jiang Qing'e eyes flickered and a sense of joy swelled within her heart. This was truly a pleasant surprise.
"Forty thousand dragon essence..."
Jiang Qing'e took another look at the Divine Spirit Treasure Tree. Now she knew what she had to do.
......
At the same time
Li Luo, who was still thinking of the Dragon Blood Atavism Art, was making his way out with the Dragon's Blood Lineage Duke Art. However, two people appeared in front of him and blocked his path.
He looked up and saw a girl and a boy. The girl was clearly the leader of the duo.
Li Luo took a glance at the girl with a pointed chin. She looked like the type who was really difficult to deal with, and he could guess her identity.
Li Hongque from the Dragon's Blood Guardians.
Li Luo could see some similarities between her and Li Hongyou and Li Hongli.
At this point, Li Hongque looked indifferently at Li Luo as she lightly moved her red lips.
"Grand Commander Li Luo, may we have a word?"
