Chapter 1235: 13,500 Pieces
Bang!
The thousands of Guardians on the five golden lotus platforms fell deathly silent. Even their breaths were held for a moment. Only the thunderous ring from the overwhelming energy could be heard in the air.
Every single person, including the five Guardian Generals, was dumbfounded. They stared at the brilliant and perfect World's End River Meteor that dazzled like a flawless gemstone.
They had never seen a World's End River Meteor purified to this extent before.
Three hundred feet!
It was the first time such a size had ever been seen.
No World's End River Meteor below four hundred feet had ever been recorded. Yet Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo had pushed the record to three hundred feet right in front of their eyes.
This was a completely baffling sight for all of them.
How many Star Pearls would they get from such a highly purified World's End River Meteor? At least ten thousand, right?
When they thought about this, all the members of the Dragon's Fang Guardians began to feel a little dizzy. More than ten thousand Star Pearls from just one World's End River Meteor? This was a concept they didn't even dare to imagine before today.
However, an unbelievable record had been set right before their eyes.
"Dragon Fang Envoy Jiang is incredible! Grand Commander Li Luo is invincible!"
Overwhelming cheers exploded from the Dragon's Fang Guardians. Everyone was filled with ecstasy. No one had expected that the combined efforts of Jiang Qing'e and Li Luo would create such a result!
Luo Jiang, the Left Dragon Fang Envoy, wiped the sweat off his face and smiled awkwardly. "What kind of ridiculous couple is this?"
Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e were a truly magnificent duo. Maybe Luo Jiang would be able to just sit and watch during the next few Star Transformations.
Even if he insisted on taking action, there was a chance the Dragon's Fang Guardians would refuse to assist him...
Xia Yu's eyes also lit up as she watched the two of them. "Grand Commander Li Luo is truly the lucky star of the Dragon's Fang Lineage.. He brought the Green Nether Banner from last place to first in his time in the Twenty Banners. Now he's brought his unrivaled fiancee to the Dragon's Fang Guardians. I can see the good old days of the Dragon's Fang Guardians returning soon."
On her side, Second Grand Commander Li Shanlan and Third Grand Commander Li Meng nodded in agreement. After all, a three hundred feet World's End River Meteor was right in front of their eyes. If this wasn’t a sign of the good times to come, what else could it be?
"If it's not against the rules, I wouldn’t mind giving Grand Commander Li Luo the Left Dragon Fang Envoy position right now." Li Meng laughed out heartily.
"It's only a matter of time. My First Grand Commander position will be reserved for him." Xia Yu pursed her lips and smiled.
Luo Jiang replied with a chuckle, "Damn it, you traitors. Is all the hard work I put in over the years worth less than a three hundred feet World's End River Meteor?"
Li Hongque took a deep breath. She did not say anything as she turned around and went back to the Dragon's Blood Guardians.
Inside, she was fuming with anger. However, she understood that no matter what she did now, she would not be able to steal the limelight away from Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e on the Falling Star Terrace.
She could only hope to do so during the Ceremony of Ascent.
As the Five Guardian Armies were lost in a bevy of complex emotions like envy and shock, Li Luo let out a sigh. He looked at the perfect three hundred feet meteor right in front of him and revealed a smile of satisfaction.
His use of the Acquired Resonance Flame had achieved unbelievable results.
Although the Acquired Resonance Flame was not particularly good at purification, it was skilled in refinement.
After all, it was the essential ingredient for refining his acquired resonances. It had the ability to completely eradicate the impurities in an ingredient. If even a tiny trace of impurity was left, the refinement would be a failure. As such, Li Luo had the idea of fusing it with Jiang Qing'e's light resonant power to see if it could refine the World's End River Meteor to a perfect state.
In the end, he succeeded.
This was a spectacular result that was only possible because the two of them had worked together.
"How's that?" Li Luo said with a smirk.
Jiang Qing'e nodded slightly, then a smile appeared on her flawless and beautiful face. "Impressive."
"Let's see how many Star Pearls we can get out of it," Li Luo said with a laugh.
It was time for the real harvest.
Jiang Qing'e lifted her jade fingers, and a ray of light resonant power shot into the World's End River Meteor. The interior of the meteor vibrated and then a huge energy wave pulsed out. Then countless cracks started spreading through the surface of the World's End River Meteor.
When the World's End River Meteor was riddled with cracks, it exploded.
A sky full of bright stars fell down on them.
Each star contained a shiny pearl that was around the size of an infant's fist. They emitted an exquisite glow that could only be described as beautiful.
Jiang Qing'e lifted up her palm, and her light resonant power gathered up all the bright stars in front of them.
Luo Jiang couldn't resist asking, "Dragon Fang Envoy Jiang, how many Star Pearls did we get?"
Jiang Qing'e checked it with her senses for a moment before she turned over to face the crowd full of anticipation. Her red lips moved a little, and cheers of wild excitement echoed in the air.
"13,500 pieces."
