Absolute Resonance Chapter 1262: World Ends River Treasure Domain

Chapter 1262: World End's River Treasure Domain

Li Jingzhe took the lead and left with the elders. The bustling and lively chatter in the surroundings continued.

Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e returned to the district of the Dragon's Fang Guardians. Many of the members were cheering to welcome them back. Some even looked at Li Luo with admiration.

Previously, Li Luo had been handed the Fourth Grand Commander position because of his past achievements as the leader of the Green Nether Banner. Becoming the Dragon's Head was a commendable contribution to the Dragon's Fang Lineage.

However, he was only at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier at the moment, which wasn't really befitting of a Grand Commander. That said, he had truly proven his worth with his victory today.

Li Luo wasn’t a Duke yet, but his talent was extraordinary. It wasn't at all inferior to Jiang Qing'e's talent. During his fight with Li Qingbai, he had shown exactly how strong his foundation was. This was especially true with his last move, the Dragon Blood Affliction Art. It had directly reduced Li Yuanshan, who was in peak condition, from a third-grade to a second-grade Duke. With that, Jiang Qing'e was able to secure their victory with ease.

Li Luo's contribution in the previous battle was definitely on par with that of Jiang Qing'e.

Even with his own strength, he was definitely worthy of this position as the Fourth Grand Commander now.

Li Luo grinned as everyone congratulated him. He saw the excitement in the crowd after Li Jingzhe's speech earlier and asked curiously, "Guardian General, what is this World's End River Treasure Domain that the Respected Elder mentioned?"

Li Foluo replied, "The World's End River Treasure Domain is a region in the depths of the World's End River Region. It is situated in an area where the World's End River penetrates the world s.p.a.ce, and its water continuously flows there. You know where the abundant Foundational Spirit Treasures in the World's End River Region come from, right?"

Li Luo nodded. The Foundational Spirit Treasures originated from the World's End River itself. They were found submerged along the river and descended upon the World's End River Region at some point.

When he recalled this, he suddenly understood what Li Foluo meant. If the river continuously flowed through the domain in question, just how many Foundational Spirit Treasures would be left behind in it? There would surely be a terrifyingly large amount of them.

That region was truly worthy of its name as a treasure domain, filled with bountiful rewards.

When he saw the expression on Li Luo's face, Li Foluo figured out that he understood the origin of the name. "Not only does the treasure domain contain a mind-boggling amount of Foundational Spirit Treasures, their grades are extraordinary as well. It's not just top-grade Foundational Spirit Treasures that can be found... there may even be rarer treasures than that. This is the real reason why every upper-grade Duke is excited over this. It is also why every time the treasure domain opens up, a bloodbath ensues."

Li Luo's heart skipped a beat. Treasures that were even rarer than top-grade? Wouldn't that be on the same level as the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus?

That was surely a treasure in a cla.s.s of its own. Even Li Jingzhe had to fork out quite the price in order to obtain it.

At this moment, he finally understood why so many Dukes were excited as soon as Li Jingzhe mentioned the World's End River Treasure Domain.

If any ordinary individual got ahold of a top-grade Foundational Spirit Treasure, they could easily sell it for a fortune if they didn't use it on themselves. That would equate to a bountiful amount of cultivation resources.

After all, Foundational Spirit Treasures were one of the most valuable items for Dukes. A Duke had nine grades, and every time they broke through to a new stage, they would need another Foundational Spirit Treasure. As a result, many Dukes spent a large portion of their time working for them.

Li Luo's heart wavered at the thought of this. He was rapidly approaching the Duke Stage, and he needed a top-grade Foundational Spirit Treasure to prepare for his breakthrough.

"However, the World's End River Treasure Domain is also full of dangers despite the bountiful treasures. When the river water pa.s.ses by, it doesn't just bring Foundational Spirit Treasures along... There will also be Others lurking in the depths as well. They are all mighty Others that can withstand the pressure and can thus sneak by. Most of the time, they are True Devil Others. Sometimes, even an Other King makes an appearance!" Li Foluo warned.

Li Luo felt a chill run up his spine. Other Kings as well? The World's End River Treasure Domain was truly dangerous.

"Under ordinary circ.u.mstances, the World's End River Treasure Domain is completely flooded by the World's End River. Ordinary folks can’t enter it very easily. We can only enter it during the Stygian Rain of Calamity, when the water subsides. This will be our only chance to enter. This is considered one of the major events in the World's End River Region. Many major powers and rogue cultivators have been waiting for this opportunity. They can barely wait to get in, harvest as many treasures as they can, and leave the World's End River Region swiftly to avoid the consequences of the Stygian Rain of Calamity itself. The other guardians from the Heavenly Emperor powers will also be coming out in full force to obtain as many treasures as they can. This includes the Blackwater Guardians from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qin, the Ten Thousand Beast Guardians from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhao, and the Heaven Devouring Guardians from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Zhu. You can say that they will be our biggest compet.i.tors," Li Foluo explained.

He paused for a moment before he continued, "The Heavenly Dragon’s Five Guardian Armies have been standing guard over Heavenly Dragon Peak for hundreds of years. We have clashed with the guardians of the other three lineages countless times in order to obtain the honor and t.i.tle of being the Heavenly Dragon’s Grand Guardians. This is the greatest honor one can receive in the Heavenly Dragon’s Five Guardian Armies."

"The Heavenly Dragon’s Grand Guardian..." Li Luo muttered to himself.

"In the past hundred years, we have only obtained that t.i.tle and honor once. It was back when your father, Li Taixuan, helmed the Dragon's Fang Guardians. He led the Five Guardian Armies and completely suppressed the other three Heavenly Emperor lineages. His name was renowned throughout the continent."

"When my father led the Dragon's Fang Guardians, what was his cultivation level?" Li Luo suddenly asked.

"The peak of the upper fifth-grade."

Li Luo pouted when he heard this. As expected, the strength that his parents displayed back in the Xia Kingdom was all a lie. It could have been due to their injuries, or they could have been trying to hide their ident.i.ties.

That said, everyone in the Xia Kingdom had been completely fooled by them.

Only Princ.i.p.al Pang Qianyuan knew the truth.

"My old man is really impressive. He's demonstrated such power with merely a single quasi-ninth-grade Heavenly Dragon resonance." Li Luo sighed.

"The Heavenly Dragon resonance is the pinnacle of all dragon resonances and thus is extraordinary. I heard that people with that resonance can purify their own Heavenly Dragon blood. It is an extremely rare resonance. Since the birth of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li, the number of times that Heavenly Dragon resonance has appeared in our entire history can be easily counted with our fingers. This included those who acquired it," Li Foluo explained.

"Acquired the Heavenly Dragon resonance?" Li Luo asked curiously. With his keen sense, he had caught onto the crux of the question immediately.

Li Foluo nodded. "It's said that those who possess a dragon resonance can attempt to evolve it into the Heavenly Dragon resonance. Of course, this is extremely rare. There've only been two cases of this since ancient times... It seems like this evolution relies on the purity of one's natural Heavenly Dragonblood.

At this point, he couldn't help but take a glance at Li Luo. The latter had shown his confidence in the purity of his own blood when he used the Dragon Blood Affliction Art earlier.

Li Luo understood this when he saw his gaze as well. His eyes grew excited. Could it be that his dragon resonance could potentially evolve into a Heavenly Dragon resonance, the leader of all dragon resonances?

However, why didn't he feel anything when he used the True Dragon Seed Pill and elevated his dragon resonance to the ninth-grade? Did this mean that he would need a permanent increase in grade in order to evolve it?

Li Luo's heart started beating faster as he thought about this. His Thunder Dragon resonance was just an upper seventh-grade at this point. If he continued to increase its grade, would it evolve into a Heavenly Dragon resonance? This was definitely worth looking into.

That way, he would have more confidence in forging a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried when he broke into the Duke Stage.

As he thought about all this, Li Luo couldn't hold back his antic.i.p.ation any longer. He couldn't wait to get his hands on the dragon essences that he had just won, and trade them all into high-grade spirit liquids and purifying lights.

There was also the Violet Resonant Tree Brooch that he had not used for a long while. That item could increase one's affinity with their resonance, and it was time for him to give it a try again.

"Guardian General, how long will it be before the World's End River Treasure Domain opens up?"

"It's hard to say, but it shouldn't be any longer than a year. The Stygian Rain of Calamity is coming, and the World's End River Treasure Domain will surely open before then."

Li Luo nodded. There was still some time for him to prepare himself. If he could, he would push his Heavenly Resonance Diagram to 90,000 feet before its opening and increase his Thunder Dragon resonance to the lower eighth-grade.

This would give him a little more confidence against his numerous compet.i.tors when he finally entered the Treasure Domain.

It seemed like in the coming days, he would need to borrow every opportunity available in the Dragon's Fang Guardians to improve himself.
