Chapter 1170: Uniting the Two Flags

A colossal white furnace stood towering against the sky, with surging waves of evil intent gushing forth from within, blotting out the sun and moon, its momentum terrifying.

The numerous students' faces changed, their eyes filled with horror.

For they could clearly feel what kind of terrifying fluctuation that white furnace was emitting; if one fell into it, even a First-Rank Marquis-level expert would likely struggle to survive.

Now that Li Luo was trapped inside, wasn't it a case of more bad luck than good?

Buzz!

Ten thousand feet of light erupted from Jiang Jiang Qinge's delicate body; her face was cold, her five fingers tightened around the sword hilt, and her figure darted without hesitation straight toward the White-Eyed True Demon.

"Little E, don't be rash!" Ning Meng saw this and hurriedly shouted.

At this moment, that White-Eyed True Demon was no ordinary True Demon; although Jiang Jiang Qinge possessed the Ten Thousand Feet Heavenly Image, the gap between them was still like a chasm.

But Jiang Jiang Qinge acted as if she hadn't heard, her golden eyes brimming with sharp killing intent.

Boom!

However, just as Jiang Jiang Qinge was about to unleash her Light Affinity Power to launch an attack on the White-Eyed True Demon, a massive sound suddenly resounded from the sky.

Accompanying the massive sound was a clear dragon roar filled with astonishing pressure.

All gazes in the area turned toward the direction the sound came from, and then they were shocked to see the furnace wall of that white furnace being torn open right then and there.

Immediately after, a dragon claw radiating a fierce aura reached out, pressing against the crack and tearing the opening even wider.

A burly, extremely ferocious figure stepped out from that crack, walking out step by step.

That figure was about several zhang tall, with a burly body covered in golden dragon scales on its surface; gray-white long hair danced like a waterfall behind it, its palms were like dragon claws, and the sharp fingernails shimmered with cold light, seemingly capable of tearing the void itself apart.

An astonishing pressure and ferocious sense swept out from that body like a storm, and this world seemed to be roaring and shaking.

"That is... Li Luo?!"

Looking at that half-dragon man like a ferocious demon, everyone present wore expressions of shock, including Ning Meng and Wu Changkong.

Then, they saw the mysterious shadow that appeared behind Li Luo.

It was the same as his original form, but wrapped in a golden great dragon, emitting a powerful dragon aura.

They were not unfamiliar with such shadows, because anyone possessing a Ninth-Rank Affinity had one.

Ninth-Rank Spirit Envoy.

This shadow of Li Luo's clearly represented the Dragon Affinity.

So the question arises... when did Li Luo acquire a Ninth-Rank Dragon Affinity?!

Did this guy's trump cards truly have no end?

Jiang Jiang Qinge, suspended in mid-air, also suddenly stopped the sword light she was about to strike; she looked at that burly and ferocious half-dragon man with a slight look of surprise. Although the latter was currently emitting extremely terrible pressure, she still recognized him at a glance.

"Sister Jiang Qinge, I'm fine." Li Luo met her gaze and smiled at her.

Afterwards, Li Luo also focused his mind on this newly born "Ninth-Rank Dragon Affinity" within himself. Dragon Affinities were of various types; some containing other attributes were called Water Dragon Affinity, Wind Dragon Affinity, and so on, but some Dragon Affinities had no attributes, and Li Luo was of this kind.

However, although there were no attributes added, it also meant that Li Luo's pure Dragon Affinity was even more adept at strength and the physical body.

The Dragon Race naturally possessed the most powerful physical bodies, so naturally, possessing a Dragon Affinity would also enhance the physical body and strength.

For Li Luo, this Dragon Affinity adept at the physical body and strength suited him better, after all, he lacked none of those other attributes.

Li Luo's dragon claws slowly closed, his fingers exerting force, as if the void itself was vibrating, with faint cracks appearing.

"There's no need to use Light Affinity Power anymore."

With a thought, Li Luo had the Light Affinity Power previously converted from the Five-Tailed Sky Wolf's evil energy poured back into the mysterious golden wheel at this moment.

"Convert it all into Dragon Affinity Power!"

The final strength of such conversion between Affinity Powers still depended on the Affinity Rank one possessed, and since Li Luo's Light Affinity was merely a secondary Affinity, it naturally couldn't compare to the Affinity Power converted from this Ninth-Rank Dragon Affinity.

Although Light Affinity Power had a suppressing effect on alien types, compared to the Ninth-Rank Dragon Affinity, obviously the latter was more useful.

Moreover, most of the many Marquis Arts he was adept at were primarily based on Dragon Affinity Power.

Roar!

The brilliant light exploding within Li Luo's body suddenly contracted at an astonishing speed at this moment, finally disappearing completely.

"Eh?" Ning Meng felt it most keenly; the Light Affinity Power on Li Luo that made her eyes envious suddenly vanished.

However, before she could voice her confusion, everyone present saw that Li Luo's body, already several zhang tall, actually grew even larger at this moment.

On the body's surface, the golden dragon scales became even more dazzling; even on the dragon scales, ancient patterns were moving. That physical body stood suspended in the air, looking like a real ferocious dragon coiled up, emitting a sky-shaking pressure.

The expressions of Ning Meng, Wu Changkong, and others gradually became Solemn; at this moment, Li Luo merely stood there motionless, yet it seemed as if a suffocating oppressive force covered this entire world.

"This power..."

At this moment, Li Luo was also immersed in that terrifying power flowing within his body; he had never experienced such powerful physical body and strength before. Compared to this, the "Nine-Scale Heavenly Dragon Battle Body" and "Thunder Roar Body" body-refining Mi Fa he had used in the past were truly like the difference between a firefly and the full moon.

However, under this unprecedented powerful state, Li Luo also felt a slight sense of weakness coming from deep within his body; that was because he had relied on the golden wheel to convert Affinity Power and had consumed most of his vital blood essence.

This mysterious golden wheel was incredibly miraculous, but it consumed too much vital blood essence.

But at this time, there was no time to worry about these things; he could only deal with the White-Eyed True Demon first.

Boom!

Just as Li Luo was thinking this, the broken white furnace behind him suddenly exploded; a torrent of ten thousand feet formed of white wax directly rushed toward him to strike.

Li Luo's face was expressionless; his dragon claws clenched tight, and he punched backward.

Boom!

With one punch thrown, that patch of void directly shattered and collapsed, then swirling up countless space fragments, directly smashing that white torrent into a sky-full of white rain.

And beneath the sky-full of white rain, two beams of white light carrying sharp killing intent darted violently forward; the scythes in their hands seemed to penetrate the void as they slashed toward Li Luo's neck.

It was precisely the two skin-shell clones of the White-Eyed True Demon.

However, facing the assassination attempt by the two clones, Li Luo extended his two dragon claws; accompanied by a crisp sound, he directly grabbed the blade edges into his hands with brute force.

Afterwards, he squeezed his palms, and the two white scythes suddenly exploded into fragments.

Li Luo took a step forward, the void exploding; his five fingers clenched shut, and he directly landed on the heads of those two clones, with terrifying power gushing forth and the void exploding.

At the same time, the two avatars were blasted apart into a pile of mangled flesh.

That terrifying physical strength could truly be called an overwhelming force.

On Li Luo's side, he had crushed the two avatars with lightning speed, and within the white-pupiled True Demon's eye, a flash of shock burst forth—from the former's body at this moment, it sensed an intense aura of danger.

Why did this guy suddenly grow so much stronger?

But before it could think of an answer, Li Luo's cold, razor-sharp gaze had already shot over, and then he raised the Dragon-Elephant Blade in his hand and slashed down sharply at the void ahead.

The energy between heaven and earth seemed to gather along with the swing of the blade.

A massive rift emerged from the void.

The next instant, what seemed like the roar of violent waters and the rumble of thunder came from within.

Boom!

The void rift suddenly split open, and a torrential Heihe and endless streams of Lei Guang thunder roared forth; the entire world thundered violently at this moment.

Within the Heihe, a massive black dragon burst from the water, with chilling nether water swirling beneath its claws, flowing with a powerful aura of corrosion.

Thunder coalesced into a clawing, fanged silver dragon, with Lei Guang flowing between its tusks and fangs.

Black Dragon Nether Water Banner!

Silver Dragon Heaven Thunder Banner!

But it didn't end there—Li Luo's hands suddenly formed a seal, and the two giant dragons began to coil around each other at this moment, then rapidly began to merge.

Nether water and thunder intertwined, and the energy fluctuations released crushed the heavens.

Finally, after a dozen or so breaths, the two dragons completely merged into one.

In their place was a two-headed giant dragon, colored in black and silver!

A trace of fervor rose in Li Luo's eyes—this was the first time he had truly merged these two marquis-grade techniques together. This Si Si Tianming-grade marquis technique from the Tianyuan Ancient Academy, though still not complete, had finally begun to reveal its own majesty.

Roar!

The next moment, the two-headed giant dragon let out a deafening dragon's cry, then shattered the heavens and, with an unstoppable momentum, slammed into the white-pupiled True Demon.

Fear also appeared in the white-pupiled True Demon's eyes—this force was enough to pose a fatal threat to it.

So it dared not hesitate; with a thought, it was about to continue devouring the human face on its chest, continuing to strengthen itself.

But this time, the activation received no response.

That third human face seemed to be resisting.

The white-pupiled True Demon was instantly furious—something already swallowed into its body still dared to resist?

Its eyes swept downward, and the next instant, a momentary blankness appeared in its gaze.

Because on its chest, that third human face had long since crumbled to pieces, leaving only a few broken traces, and in its original position, another fair, clean cheek had taken its place.

And at this moment, this cheek was slightly tilted up, its eyeballs staring at it with a ghostly gaze.

The white-pupiled True Demon remembered—that cheek should have been in the last position.

The owner of that cheek was a woman.

But why could she secretly eat what originally belonged to it as food?! The other three human faces, once swallowed into its belly, had long since had all their consciousness dissolved—but why had she not only not become muddled, but was even able to secretly eat the advancement item that originally belonged to it?!

At this moment, the white-pupiled True Demon felt like it had carefully prepared a table full of fine delicacies, only to have them ruined by a mouse that had snuck in and stolen bites.

The white-pupiled True Demon was furious to the extreme.

Good, good, good—since you dare to steal a bite, then I'll eat you instead; it's all the same!
