Chapter 1295: The Heavenly Dragon Manifests on the Falling Star Platform

Three days passed in the blink of an eye amid the somewhat restless atmosphere of the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards, and the Boundary River Falling Star Platform opened on schedule.

When Li Luo ascended the Boundary River Falling Star Platform once more with the Dragon Fang Guard, he clearly felt the atmosphere was completely different from before. The first time he had gone up to the Boundary River Falling Star Platform, hardly anyone paid attention to a newcomer who had just joined the Dragon Fang Guard. But now, wherever his footsteps went, those tens of thousands of gazes stuck to him like glue, moving as he moved.

Those gazes were filled with fervor and anticipation.

At this moment, Li Luo was truly the brightest star of the entire Five Heavenly Dragon Guards.

"Li Luo, don't overreach and fail." Seeing such a grand display and atmosphere, Li Fuluo was not at all pleased. Instead, his expression grew even more solemn as he reminded Li Luo.

He truly wasn't certain whether Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge could complete the refinement task for the Dragon Fang Guard's side and still have enough strength left to help the other three Guards refine.

After all, this was an extremely strength-consuming matter.

Now the members of the Dragon Scale, Dragon Bone, and Dragon Horn Guards were all full of anticipation. If Li Luo were ultimately unable to complete the task due to exhaustion, these people whose expectations had reached the peak would likely erupt with extreme dissatisfaction.

If the Dragon Blood Guard side then did some guiding at that point, the situation would become rather difficult to wrap up.

In response to Li Fuluo's reminder, Li Luo smiled and nodded. Actually, regarding helping the other Guards refine Star Pearls to earn Dragon Essence, he had wanted to discuss it with Jiang Jiang Qinge before.

It was just that at the time the two of them had no extra strength for this matter, so he had shelved it. However, as they grew increasingly skilled at refining Star Pearls, and after several months, their strength had also improved. Especially Li Luo—back when he first refined Star Pearls, his Tian Xiang Diagram was only six thousand zhang, but now, he had reached nine thousand six hundred zhang!

Most importantly, his Dragon Phase had successfully evolved into a Heavenly Dragon Phase!

With these as support, Li Luo had dared to take on such a massive task that day, and afterward he had discussed it with Jiang Jiang Qinge.

Moreover, he hadn't directly boasted that he would help the other three Guards refine top-tier results like the Dragon Fang Guard's two hundred and sixty thousand Star Pearls, so relatively speaking, this would be a bit easier.

Under the gaze of those numerous fervent eyes, Li Luo stepped forward, his gaze looking toward the direction of the Dragon Scale, Dragon Bone, and Dragon Horn Guards, and his voice rang out loudly: "Three Guard Commanders, after the Falling Star Platform opens later, you first capture the 'Boundary River Meteors,' then maintain them for some time. Once we finish the task on the Dragon Fang Guard's side, we'll come help you."

Dragon Scale Guard Commander Li Tingyue smiled charmingly and said, "Then we'll wait for good news from Commander Li Luo."

The Guard Commanders of the other two Guards also nodded.

Compared to the other four Guards' brimming anticipation, the atmosphere on the Dragon Blood Guard's side was rather subdued. After all, in today's grand event, they were purely just spectators.

Li Zhihuo felt this atmosphere, and his expression couldn't help but turn somewhat gloomy.

Li Hongque beside him comforted him: "The Guard Commander need not worry. That Li Luo is insatiably greedy, taking on three Guards' work at once. Relying on his mere Da Tian Xiang Jing, how could he possibly sustain it?"

"If he botches it in the end, let's see how he wraps things up."

Li Zhihuo nodded slightly. He had experienced the Boundary River Falling Star Platform cultivation countless times, so he knew very well how laborious refining Star Pearls was. Even though Jiang Jiang Qinge possessed three Nine Grade Light Phases and Li Luo had some special refinement methods, the two of them's strength ultimately limited them.

However, what if Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge actually succeeded?

When that time came, they would become the most sought-after people in the entire Five Heavenly Dragon Guards. All the other Guards would hold them in the greatest respect and reverence. After all, Star Pearls were a matter concerning everyone's cultivation. In matters related to one's own strength, any emotion could be set aside.

In terms of reputation, Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge at that time would probably become the uncrowned Guard Commanders.

Even later, as their strength gradually increased, with both reputation and strength in place, the unsettled position of "Grand Guard Commander" of the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards would likely fall into their hands.

At the mere thought of this, Li Zhihuo's heart couldn't help but tremble.

Boom!

And just as distracting thoughts were running rampant in Li Zhihuo's mind, the massive formation above the Boundary River Falling Star Platform began to operate. The clouds dispersed, and the mysterious and terrifying Boundary River, located in the unreachable high sky, came into view.

The formation operated, emitting a great sound of dragon roars. Then vast radiance condensed into a dragon's mouth, which, with a breath, forcefully intercepted and brought down the waters of the Boundary River.

Thus, one Boundary River Meteor after another, carrying vast fluctuations, fell from the sky.

Seeing this, Li Fuluo let out a long howl, his body rose into the air, and he began intercepting the "Boundary River Meteors."

This session of Boundary River Falling Star Platform cultivation opened smoothly amid the anticipation of countless people.

And as Li Fuluo intercepted the Boundary River Meteors, Jiang Jiang Qinge led the strength of five thousand-man Guard units, erupting with pure Light Phase power, and began refining.

Li Hongyou led a thousand-man Guard unit, employing the amplification power of her own phase nature to empower Jiang Jiang Qinge.

Li Luo also led two thousand-man Guard units, activating the Minor Formless Fire, assisting Jiang Jiang Qinge in jointly refining.

Under this skilled coordination, one massive Boundary River Meteor after another was refined without any mishap, and the refinement efficiency was faster than any previous time.

Countless dazzling Star Pearls poured down, drawing the gazes of the entire venue.

After seven such rounds, the Dragon Fang Guard completed the refinement of all the "Boundary River Meteors" at the fastest speed.

Ultimately, they harvested over two hundred and eighty thousand Star Pearls.

Obviously, this should be the maximum quantity that could be refined from these Boundary River Meteors.

As the Dragon Fang Guard's side erupted in cheers, the Dragon Scale, Dragon Bone, and Dragon Horn Guards cast longing gazes. Above the Falling Star Platforms on their respective sides, over a dozen massive Boundary River Meteors floated, and all their strength was used to maintain these Boundary River Meteors. After all, these Boundary River Meteors contained extremely heavy Boundary River water within them. If they didn't bear them with massive energy, they would plummet directly toward the Heavenly Dragon City below.

But as a result, their strength was also being rapidly consumed.

"How are your conditions?" Li Fuluo descended, looking at Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge. After completing the refinement on the Dragon Fang Guard's side, the phase power fluctuations around the two of them had clearly weakened considerably.

Especially Li Luo—his strength was only at the Da Tian Xiang Jing, so his consumption was even more severe.

Li Fuluo's eyes held some worry. From their current appearance, Li Luo and the other might truly not be able to help the three Guards complete the refinement.

In the distance, the three Guard Commanders Li Tingyue, Li Jushen, and Li Boyuan also keenly perceived the massive consumption of Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge's own phase power, and immediately their brows furrowed slightly.

Indeed, refining the Boundary River Meteors of four Guards at once was still somewhat forced for Li Luo and the other?

On Li Zhihuo's side, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, facing those numerous gazes, Li Luo smiled at Li Fuluo. With a thought, he saw majestic phase power surge skyward from the crown of his head. The light expanded, transforming into a magnificent and splendid Tian Xiang Diagram.

The Tian Xiang Diagram inhaled and exhaled the energies of heaven and earth, nourishing Li Luo in return.

The members of the Five Guards looked at that Tian Xiang Diagram, all of them suddenly shocked.

"This Tian Xiang Diagram, nine thousand six hundred zhang?!" someone exclaimed.

A nine thousand six hundred zhang Tian Xiang Diagram—this was a level that many at the Da Tian Xiang Jing could only look at but never reach.

"What an astonishing cultivation speed." Li Tingyue exclaimed in surprise. One should know that when Li Luo first went up to the Falling Star Platform, his Tian Xiang Diagram was only six thousand zhang. But in just these few short months, he had actually reached this level. After all, everyone knew that after the Tian Xiang Diagram reached nine thousand zhang, to improve even one more zhang required extremely high talent and resources.

And just as everyone was feeling surprised, within that magnificent Tian Xiang Diagram, the sound of thunder suddenly rang out. Within it, it seemed a mass of thunder clouds had appeared, and within the thunder clouds, a massive dragon shadow writhed and swam.

Roar!

That dragon shadow let out a low dragon roar. It opened its dragon mouth, and the energies of heaven and earth were swallowed into its belly in one gulp.

And the phase power fluctuations around Li Luo began to become majestic at an astonishing speed.

An ancient, majestic dragon roar echoed across this Boundary River Falling Star Platform.

The members of the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards all changed color at once.

Even Li Foluo, Li Zhihuo, Li Tingyue and the other Guard Commanders had their pupils contract sharply, because beneath that dragon's roar, the dragon aspects within their bodies had all begun to tremble faintly.

They discovered, to their disbelief, that with their strength, they had actually felt a faint pressure from Li Luo's dragon aspect roar.

But with Li Luo's strength, even if he bore a ninth-rank dragon aspect, it should have been impossible to make them feel this way?!

What was going on?!

Their gazes shot like lightning toward the Heaven Phase Chart, where the thunderclouds grew ever thinner, and the next moment, a purple-gold dragon body radiating endless noble aura emerged from within the thunderclouds.

Gazing at that purple-gold dragon body, the faces of every Guard Commander present, as well as all those of the Li Li Tianwang lineage who bore dragon aspects, turned to utter horror.

At the same time, a sharp, piercing voice rang out.

"That is..."

"A Heavenly Dragon Aspect?!!"
