Chapter 1202: Dragon Sacred Seed
Li Luo finally opened his eyes. They were layered with mysterious light, as if his eyes were glittering gemstones.
After a few moments, the magical light slowly subsided.
Li Luo stretched out his palm. He could sense worldly natural energy with water affinity circulating around him, gushing into his body continuously.
His affinity was at a whole new level compared to the past.
"Lower ninth-grade waterlight resonance. Upper eighth-grade woodearth resonance."
Li Luo sensed the resonances in his body. A look of surprise appeared on his face as his lower eighth-grade woodearth resonance had also evolved.
When his waterlight resonance increased to the lower ninth-grade earlier, Li Luo had noticed that a bit of the Divine Cultivation Serum still remained. It was insufficient to push the waterlight resonance from a lower ninth-grade to a middle ninth-grade, so he had directed it towards his woodearth resonance instead.
This resulted in his lower eighth-grade woodearth resonance improving in quality.
Right now, his three resonances were the lower ninth-grade waterlight resonance, uthe pper eighth-grade woodearth resonance, and the upper seventh-grade Thunder Dragon resonance. This was definitely a stellar combination, considering each of his resonant palaces contained a primary resonance and a secondary resonance. It was only a little less shocking when compared to the monstrous Jiang Qing'e by his side. Once Li Luo reached the Duke Stage and gained his fourth resonant palace, he would likely possess four resonant palaces with eight resonances. That would be a truly astonishing feat.
Very few people throughout history possessed this number of resonances.
As Li Luo studied the resonances in his body, he found a pleasant surprise as well. His resonant power had increased considerably as well.
"Now my Heavenly Resonance Diagram should be sixty thousand feet wide."
Li Luo felt immense satisfaction. He was gradually getting closer to his goal of becoming a Duke.
"The Divine Cultivation Serum was truly magnificent."
It was a pity that he only had one portion of it. He wondered if there were any more of these prized treasures lurking around in the ruins of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect.
After experiencing the effects for himself, Li Luo truly wanted to get his hands on more.
After all, the ordinary way of increasing one’s resonance grade was very exhausting. Li Luo could accumulate progress slowly thanks to his blank palaces’ special trait, but other people had it much harder than him. Taking in too many impurities from the spirit liquids and purifying lights would lead to their resonant palaces being sealed off, making it impossible for them to increase their resonance grade at certain points.
The Divine Cultivation Serum was so godly that it had evolved his resonance in one go.
Whilst Li Luo pondered over this, the void in the cultivation chamber shuddered lightly, and Li Jingzhe appeared in the room. He took a glance at the golden cauldron and asked, "Did you get this from the Spiritual Resonance Cave?"
Li Luo stood up in a hurry and nodded, smiling at his grandfather.
"You're really lucky. This item has a similar effect to spirit liquids and purifying lights, but on a completely different scale. It’s no wonder why the Sacred Void Resonance Sect once stood above all others. They actually managed to find another way to improve one's resonance grade." Li Jingzhe sighed.
"Unfortunately, there was only a little bit left." Li Luo pouted.
Li Jingzhe shook his head in amusement. Surely such an item was extremely precious even in the Sacred Void Resonance Sect. It was already really lucky for him to have found a little bit of it, yet this kid was saying it wasn't enough?
"What are the grades of your three resonances now?" Li Jingzhe asked.
"Lower ninth-grade waterlight resonance, upper eighth-grade woodearth resonance, and upper seventh-grade Thunder Dragon resonance," Li Luo answered.
"Three resonant palaces and six resonances... That is truly miraculous."
Li Jingzhe sighed once again. Six resonances. This was something that even some Kings couldn’t achieve, yet Li Luo had them before reaching the Duke Stage.
Moreover, Li Luo possessed the True Dragon Seed Pill. He could raise his dragon resonance to the ninth-grade by activating it. In other words, Li Luo's power would reach astonishing heights if he went all-out.
In a certain sense, he was comparable to Jiang Qing'e with her triple ninth-grade light resonances. "You've already used the True Dragon Pill a few times, right?" Li Jingzhe asked.
Li Luo nodded. He had activated it multiple times when he was in the Heavenly Origin Ancient College and the Fifth Minor Earthly Branch Realm. Towards the end, he had even activated the dragonification form.
As it was a consumable item, Li Luo could sense the power of the True Dragon Seed Pill slowly diminishing after each use.
Based on his estimate, it would be completely used up after three more Ascending Dragon uses.
"Grandpa, is there any other way to get another True Dragon Seed Pill?" Li Luo asked with a grin. The pill held extraordinary power, and after experiencing it, Li Luo could not bear to lose it.
He would lose a great portion of his battle strength without it.
"The effect of the True Dragon Seed Pill diminishes greatly after the first use. Even if you get a second pill, it will not be as effective," Li Jingzhe explained.
"Oh?" Li Luo was surprised to hear this. So the True Dragon Pill came with such a side-effect?
"Is there anything I can do about it? I would like to further experiment with the power of a ninth-grade dragon resonance..." Li Luo asked, unwilling to give up just yet.
Li Jingzhe smiled lightly. "What is there to be unwilling about? The True Dragon Seed Pill may be mighty, but it is only a byproduct of creating a Dragon Sacred Seed. If the pill loses its effects, you can just aim a little higher."
Li Luo's eyes lit up all of a sudden. "I can obtain a Dragon Sacred Seed?!"
Sacred Seeds were the foundations of major powers all across the continent. Just like how Lu Qing'er and the Golden Dragon Bank had the Holy Permafrost Seed, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li had the Dragon Sacred Seed.
Although Li Luo did not know what Sacred Seeds were capable of just yet, he had witnessed how impressive the True Dragon Seed Pill was. Surely the actual Sacred Seed would have power beyond his imagination.
He estimated that it was comparable to a King's power. Otherwise, how could it form the foundation of a Heavenly Emperor's forces?
Li Jingzhe laughed in response. "You can continue dreaming about it. The Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li has only obtained a single Dragon Sacred Seed after countless years of accumulation."
Li Luo pouted in disappointment yet again.
"The criteria to inherit the Dragon Sacred Seed is extremely strict. You are far too weak right now. However, the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li has three other failed products apart from the actual Dragon Sacred Seed. They are also known as Lesser Sacred Seeds. Perhaps you'll have a chance to get one of those instead."
"Lesser Sacred Seeds?" Li Luo blinked and asked curiously, "What can I do with them?"
"They’re similar to the True Dragon Seed Pill, but they’re better. For example, the True Dragon Seed Pill can only increase your dragon resonance to the lower ninth-grade temporarily when you use Ascending Dragon. The Lesser Sacred Seeds can increase your dragon resonance to the middle ninth-grade instead. In addition, the Lesser Sacred Seed contains a Destiny-grade Duke Art created by the Ancestor himself. You will naturally understand how to use it once you've refined the seed. There is no need to spend the usual amount of effort trying to cultivate it. The Lesser Sacred Seed also possesses a magnificent power within itself. You can treat it like a top-class Duke mythic armament with formidable powers. Of course, I have to remind you that both the Lesser Sacred Seeds and Dragon Sacred Seeds are the bedrock of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. You may earn the rights to use it, but if the bloodline needs it, you'll have to hand it back."
As Li Luo listened to his explanation, his eyes became wider with each passing moment. Middle ninth-grade dragon resonance? Plus another Destiny-grade Duke Art that he would not need to spend time cultivating? And a top-class Duke mythic armament?!
It was no wonder this treasure was considered an object that could support a Heavenly Emperor power.
Having to return it when necessary was not a huge deal at all.
Li Luo wiped off the saliva off his mouth. He had inadvertently drooled while hearing how wonderful it was.
"Grandpa, just tell me straight away. How can I get it?"
Li Jingzhe smiled and continued, "It's not too hard. According to the rules, the Grand Guardian General of each generation is awarded the right to use a Lesser Sacred Seed for ten years."
Li Luo was shocked to hear this. "Grand Guardian General?"
Li Luo was shocked to hear this. "Grand Guardian General?"
"The leader of a guardian army is the Guardian General, and the leader of all five guardian armies is known as the Grand Guardian General."
Li Luo's mouth twitched a little. In other words, he would need to become the strongest Guardian General in the Heavenly Dragon’s Five Guardian Armies to be given a Lesser Sacred Seed?
At present, he could only compete for the position to be one of the four Grand Commanders. That was a far cry from the Guardian General, let alone the Grand Guardian General.
Realizing this, Li Luo glanced at Li Jingzhe resentfully.
“Forget it. This is too far away.”
Sensing his gaze, Li Jingzhe told him, "Indeed, it'll take some time for you to get there, but you have Qing'e, right? It shouldn't be too difficult for her."
Hearing this, Li Luo sternly rejected his suggestion. "It'll be too shameful for me to rely on Sister Qing'e to get the Lesser Sacred Seed. Do I look like the type of person that would mooch off my fiancee? A man has to rely on himself, and I, Li Luo, have to take my pride into consideration!"
With that, he pushed open the doors and left without any hesitation.
Jiang Qing'e, who had been standing guard outside, was about to open her mouth. However, Li Luo spoke first with a beaming face.
"Sister Qing'e, you must be tired. Why don't I cook a meal for you?"
Jiang Qing'e looked at him in confusion.
“Did this brat damage his brain earlier? What’s going on?”
