Chapter 0850: Tri-Radiance Glass

The birthday celebration of the Lineage Chief of the Dragon's Blood Lineage went on for a few more days before it finally concluded.

During this time, the results of the Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath Pool battle had spread throughout Dragon's Fang Mountain after the return of Li Luo and his trio. This caused a huge commotion. After all, it was the best achievement that the Dragon's Fang Lineage had gotten in the dragonbreath pool battle in decades.

Most surprising of all, the one who had stolen the limelight of the event and secured the Golden Dragon Pillar was Li Luo. It was the guy who had returned from the outer divine continent just a few months ago...

Without a doubt, Li Luo's reputation soared. In the past, many had thought that he had wasted too much time in the outer divine continent. Even though he had the blood of Li Taixuan and possessed extraordinary talent, his foundation was far too weak compared to Li Qingfeng, Lu Qingmei, and his peers, the top talents who had grown up in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages.

Yet things had changed completely with Li Luo's most recent victory. All the negative gossip had died down considerably.

Although there were some who still talked about how his actual strength was inferior to that of Li Qingfeng and the rest, his rise within the Dragon's Fang Lineage was already unstoppable.

Once he caught up with the others, he would become a potential candidate for the Dragon's Head in this generation.

Gossip and chatter continued amongst the outside world. Meanwhile, Li Luo had secluded himself for a few days, barely even showing himself in the Green Nether drill grounds.

His top priority now was to prepare himself perfectly in order to cultivate the five strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath and break into the Fiend Body Tier.

Unfortunately, his preparation was disrupted following Li Jingzhe's return to the back mountain.

……

In Dragon's Fang Mountain, deep within the bamboo forest.

Li Jingzhe had cooked up a table of bamboo shoot dishes personally. Apart from Li Luo, Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi were also seated around the table.

Out of everyone in the Dragon's Fang Lineage, these three juniors were probably the only ones who could get to eat a meal prepared by Li Jingzhe himself. Not even his sons, Li Qingpeng and Li Jinpan, would get to enjoy such a privilege.

At this point, Li Luo had already gotten used to it. He was enjoying his meal leisurely, while Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi appeared slightly tense. After all, Li Jingzhe had always treated them very seriously and authoritatively in their daily lives. This was an impression formed in their hearts since young. Fortunately, Li Luo was present with them, so the atmosphere was better. Slowly, the two of them started to enjoy the meal too.

Li Jingzhe did not eat anything himself. He simply drank the bamboo wine he had personally brewed. After a short moment, he slowly commented, "You guys did a really good job."

"It's all thanks to Third Brother," Li Jingtao said with a silly smile.

Li Jingzhe took a look at him. His old and stern face turned gentler as he continued, "You were really amazing as well. Although you have modified the Annihilation Fang Art into a different form, that does not mean you have turned it into an evil art. It just shows that that particular art really suits your character. Even I neglected this fact in the past. The fangs of the dragon are not just its sharpest body part, but also its hardest. It's just that many people totally forget about this because they are too caught up in its offensive points. Modifying it into a defensive technique suitable for yourself is something that even some powerful Dukes are unable to do."

Hearing his words, Li Jingtao was slightly taken aback for a moment. Then he nodded quickly in agreement and his eyes turned a little red.

This was the first time he had heard the serious and stern Li Jingzhe speak to him in such a gentle tone. Furthermore, these words meant that Li Jingzhe had recognized his capabilities.

This made him feel both excited and moved.

At this moment, Li Jingzhe looked towards Li Luo and said, "You've gotten seven strands of Mystical Yellow Dragonbreath. You must be preparing to break into the Fiend Body Tier, right?"

Li Luo nodded in confirmation.

"Hehe. I assume you are able to store around thirty thousand or so strands of abstruse fiend light within your three resonant palaces," Li Jingzhe said with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi secretly took a look at each other and clicked their tongues. When they were breaking into the Fiend Body tier, they only needed ten thousand or so abstruse fiend lights. Meanwhile, Li Luo required three times their amounts. That was a truly shocking figure.

However, they understood that this was the benefit of having multiple resonances. Ordinary people only had one resonant palace, while Li Luo had three resonant palaces, so his storage capability was naturally far higher than that of others.

"It's around thirty-five thousand or so strands," Li Luo said with a shy smile.

Li Jingzhe coughed a little after hearing this. Even with his vast knowledge and experience, this was the first time he had heard of someone in the Greater Fiend Palace Tier requiring such a high amount of abstruse fiend lights for cultivation.

"Looks like you're planning to skip stages in this breakthrough." He saw right through Li Luo's ambitions immediately. This was to be expected. After all, there was no need for Li Luo to progress one step at a time with the strong foundation that he had cultivated.

"I plan to break into the Gold Fiend Tier directly," Li Luo explained.

"Gold Fiend Tier..."

Li Jingzhe nodded and continued, "With your foundation, that's indeed not hard to achieve. However, I feel like you can aim a little higher."

Li Luo was taken aback for a moment. "Should I go for the Glass Fiend Tier directly?" he asked with a little worry. "Won’t such a wild goal lead to an unstable foundation? Furthermore, it is said that some body-tempering spirit materials are needed to reach the Glass Fiend Tier." He continued his questions. In fact, Li Luo had thought of this earlier too. However, he was concerned that skipping so many tiers would affect his foundation. This would adversely affect his attempt to break into the higher stages in the future and was ultimately not worth the risk.

At this moment, Li Jingzhe paused for two seconds before he said with a strange expression, "My dear child, you are too conservative... If the foundation cultivated with thirty-five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light is not stable enough, then no foundation can be considered stable."

In response, Li Luo smiled with embarrassment. Was it bad to play it safer?

After thinking for a moment, Li Luo replied, "Since that is your opinion, Grandfather, I think it's worth a try. But... I have not prepared the body-tempering spirit materials."

When he finished speaking, he displayed a simple and honest smile to Li Jingzhe.

Body-tempering spirit materials were not cheap. If he had to purchase them from the marketplace, they would likely cost millions of skygold each. In fact, it could even go into the tens of millions for the premium ones.

Of course, there was naturally no need to worry about this expenditure if he did not have the ambition to aim for the Glass Fiend Tier.

Seeing his smile, Li Jingzhe knew what Li Luo was thinking about instantly. He could not hold back his laughter as he replied, "You sure are shameless, kid."

Afterwards, he flicked his fingers, and the pocket sphere on his wrist started glowing. In the next moment, a purple jade box materialized in front of Li Luo.

The jade box opened automatically, and Li Luo saw a golden meteorite about the size of one's palm inside. Mysterious lights flowed around the meteorite, and there were nine holes on it. They emitted a strange sound, as if worldly natural energy was flooding into the holes.

"Is this the... Nine Aperture Rock of Gold?!" Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi exclaimed with eyes wide open as soon as they saw it. In the next moment, Li Fengyi turned towards the confused Li Luo and explained with envy, "This is a top-grade spirit material for cultivating to the Glass Fiend Tier. If it were placed in the Golden Dragon Bank for auction, it would easily reach fifteen million skygold at least."

Although both Li Jingtao and her had long reached the Glass Fiend Tier, the premium spirit materials that they had used were one whole class below this. This was not because their parents were unable to fork out the skygold. Rather, such spirit materials were simply too rare.

Li Jingzhe smiled and said, "You can have it. Treat it as the prize for your spectacular performance."

Still full of curiosity, Li Luo accepted the purple jade box as he replied to Li Jingzhe with a smile, "Thank you, then, Grandfather."

Li Jingzhe nodded slightly and continued, "By giving this to you, I have another request for you."

"What is it?" Li Luo asked in surprise.

Li Jingzhe lightly tapped his fingers on the table, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"With your foundation, there should be no problem breaking into the Glass Fiend Tier. However, you should have heard about the different grades within the Glass Fiend Tier itself, right?"

Li Luo froze for a moment before he nodded.

The so-called Glass Fiend Tier was a general term. Within it, there were finer classifications in grades which people termed as the Tri-Radiance Glass.

Simply put, one's body would be protected by a mysterious light after they had reached the Glass Fiend Tier successfully. This mysterious protection light was usually a single color. However, those with the very best foundation could evolve it further.

This was the so-called Tri-Radiance Glass.

Such Glass Fiend Tier cultivators were shrouded in a mysterious protective light that had two or even three colors. As such, they were named the Tri-Radiance Glass.

Li Jingzhe pointed at the Nine Aperture Rock of Gold in his purple jade box and slowly said, "My request for you is to cultivate the Tri-Radiance Glass."

Hearing this, Li Luo was not completely surprised. Instead, he just showed a bitter smile helplessly.

He knew it...

But wasn't the Respected Elder expecting too much from him this time?

This would be a real challenge.
