Chapter 0781 – Grand Circle of Completion, Five Thousand Strands

In the coming days, Li Luo led the fifth division on another Fiendish Devil Cave expedition and successfully cleared layer thirty-two. 

This time, Zhong Ling did not dare to act rashly after the total defeat suffered on the last expedition. Despite the lead on Li Luo's side, he merely bit his teeth and endured it. He wanted to conserve his strength for the third day's battle among the banners and win it all back. 

Unfortunately, his division encountered the second division from the Dragon's Scale Lineage's Holy Scale Banner. The Holy Scale Banner was ranked second among the banners, and meeting them totally overturned his plan for a comeback. 

The first division was annihilated during the clash. 

On the other hand, Li Luo's side got lucky with the draw. Their opponent was from the Dragon's Bone Lineage. They easily defeated their opponent, and after a tough fight, they successfully cleared layer thirty-three too.

With that, the second Fiendish Devil Cave expedition concluded. Once again, the fifth division under Li Luo's leadership rose in fame with the best performance out of the five divisions of the Green Nether Banner.

At the same time, Li Luo obtained another five hundred strands of abstruse fiend light as the reward.

Coupled with another ten days of dedicated cultivation, his waterlight resonant palace reached over four thousand strands of abstruse fiend light, nearly hitting his target of five thousand.

And so, he continued to work harder.

Finally, the number of abstruse fiend lights in his waterlight resonant palace reached the limit, just within a month after his arrival to the Dragon's Fang Lineage. 

……

In the cultivation chamber.

When Li Luo focused on himself, he could sense the five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light flying around like little birds inside his waterlight resonant palace. He was overjoyed. After so many days of hard work, he had finally cultivated five thousand abstruse fiend lights for his waterlight resonant palace. 

With this, he could finally begin the next stage of tempering and strengthening his resonant palace using the energy of the abstruse fiend lights. He was finally ready to tackle the Greater Fiend Palace Tier. 

Ordinarily speaking, one would usually have to wait patiently for the tempering and strengthening process to be completed at this stage before the resonant palace could contain any more strands of abstruse fiend light.

However, Li Luo did not have to wait, as he had only filled up his first resonant palace. Behind it, there was still the woodearth resonant palace and thunder dragon resonant palace that were empty and vacant. 

If he could obtain more abstruse fiend lights, the process could be enhanced and accelerated.

As such, Li Luo continued to cultivate more strands of abstruse fiend light while his waterlight resonant palace was undergoing tempering. Not only were the excess abstruse fiend lights diverted and stored in the two other resonant palaces, they even helped to speed up the waterlight resonant palace's strengthening process. 

This was truly an advantage for a multiple resonance user. 

Li Luo focused his mind upon the strengthening section of the Nine Revolutions Draconic Breath Fiend Art. In the next moment, the five thousand strands of abstruse fiend light in the waterlight resonant palace fused together speedily, as if transformed into a dragon shadow.

The dragon shadow opened its mouth and spewed out majestic amounts of dragonbreath onto the different parts of the resonant palace.

With each dragonbreath, the waterlight resonant palace glittered a little more, and he could feel it getting sturdier and wider.

Waves of ripples started to appear in the center of the resonant palace, where the waterlight resonant power had gathered and manifested as a crystal-clear lake.

Such an upgrade for the resonant palace was akin to a baptism ceremony for one's resonant power, making it purer and stronger in the process. 

And with three resonant palaces, Li Luo could do this three times in total!

As the resonant power surged in his body, he finally opened his eyes. He would just need a few more days to complete the upgrade process at this pace. 

With that, he would finally attain a Greater Fiend Palace for the waterlight resonant palace.

"This continent is indeed amazing. My cultivation progress is much faster than back in the Xia Kingdom," Li Luo said with a sigh. With the same talent and gifts, the pace of his cultivation at the two places was vastly different. 

Such was the importance of cultivation resources.

With just natural talent and no resources, one would have to slowly climb up and progress. This would require a really long time, and without a doubt, one would miss the best period for cultivation, especially before the Duke Stage. By then, one would no longer be young and full of energy. He would have to work a lot harder and get lucky with opportunities to catch back up in the future. 

At this juncture, Li Luo picked himself up and left the cultivation chamber for the lake at the inner courtyard.

As he clenched his fist, a big, white jade bow appeared in his hand. This was the Lambent Hawkeye that he had long forgotten.

It was an upper gilded white-eye treasure that Li Luo really liked. However, it had fallen short quickly following his rapid gains in strength.

As he had no better artifact to use currently, he would have to make do with it for now. 

When he drew the bow, the thunder dragon resonance power flowed out from his body, converging at the bowstring. Subtle rings of draconic roars could be heard as the resonant power condensed within it, and a gray-white arrow slowly materialized.

The arrow looked extremely simple, gray and mottled. Yet the gray light flowing around it gave people an indescribable sense of sharpness for some reason. 

It was akin to the sharp fangs of a giant dragon.

This was the high-grade dragon-general resonance art that Li Luo had gotten from Li Jingzhe earlier, the Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang.

Over the past month, he had been focusing all his attention on mastering this dragon-general resonance art apart from cultivating abstruse fiend lights.

It was a really difficult dragon-general resonance art to learn as it required both dragon and thunder resonance power. It may have been particularly tough for an average individual to learn it, but it was perfect for Li Luo.

Moreover, Li Luo had always been exceptionally gifted in resonance arts. After numerous attempts and failures over the past month, he had begun to grasp the usage of the Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang.

When the gray and white dragon fang arrow took form on the bowstring, Li Luo calmly directed his thunder resonance power. Exquisite and mysterious thunder patterns slowly emerged on the tail of the dragon fang arrow.

With the emergence of the thunder patterns, lightning sparkles began to leak out of the arrow. It was as if the arrow itself had become a torrent of lightning energy. 

Violent thunder boomed.

The surroundings started to tremble aggressively as Li Luo held his position.

Li Luo could tell that this was the limit of this art. As he squinted his eyes to take aim, he lightly released his fingers and let the arrow loose. 

Bang!

The deafening roar of thunder boomed.

A thunderbolt flashed across the void and split the lake in front of it into two. The flash penetrated thousands of feet with an indescribable momentum before it finally struck a reef in the middle of the lake. The reef was smashed into pieces, and huge waves of water rose towards the shore.

Li Luo smiled with satisfaction.

After one whole month of hard work, this was his first success with the Flowing Thunder Dragon Fang.

Li Luo evaluated his first shot. "It did not cost me too much resonant power. Compared to the Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner, the drain is much more acceptable. And compared to the Thousand Watery Knives Wheel, this is much stronger."

Clap! Clap!

Sounds of clapping came from the back.

When he turned back to take a look, Zhao Yanzhi was quietly standing alone under the big tree, with a surprised smile on her charming cheeks.

"Congratulations, Sub Leader. You have mastered another impressive resonance art. It won't be long before you dominate the Dragon's Fang Lineage," Zhao Yanzhi flattered with sparkling eyes. Her curves exuded a charming air, and she was truly a spectacular sight to behold. 

Nonetheless, Li Luo remained indifferent towards this lovely beauty. He simply put his bow away and walked over.

"What's up?" he asked.

"Today is the day we receive our monthly stipends. I heard that the Second Hall Master and Third Hall Master have personally come for it," Zhao Yanzhi replied softly.

Every month, there would be a huge pool of resources given to the Green Nether Banner, which was ultimately related to the monthly stipend each division received.

In the past, it was shared equally between each division in the Green Nether Banner. 

However, Zhong Ling had allocated ten percent more to the first division after he became their Sub Leader. On the one hand, he wanted to win the hearts of the first division's banner members. On the other hand, he wanted to display his own capability. 

As a result, the first division got thirty percent of the total resources.

The second, third, and fourth divisions got twenty percent each.

Lastly, the fifth division, which did not even have a Sub Leader before, got only ten percent.

In other words, Zhong Ling had robbed the ten percent off the fifth division for his own.

Many of the fifth division's banner members were disgruntled over it, but they could hardly do anything about it, given Zhong Ling's status and the first division's position as the vanguard team. 

However, things were different now. Li Luo had no intention to take this lying down after hearing about it.

This was a crucial period in his cultivation where he needed resources, so how could he accept Zhong Ling's blatant robbery?

After all, how could Zhong Ling's status compare with his?
