Chapter 1372: Severing the Marquis Platform

From the Severed Marquis Platform, this kind of life-risking method in the Marquis Realm is not particularly rare, for when the Marquis Platform shatters, it naturally generates an extremely massive force, which will far surpass one's own level.

However, the Marquis Platform is formed from one's own potential and foundation; many Marquis powerhouses have poured countless efforts into it, and once shattered, reforging it later is no easy task.

Thus, some Marquis powerhouses sometimes would rather die than make such a choice.

Jiang Qinge did not expect Li Luo's resolve to be this great.

That is ten-pillar golden platforms!

An achievement countless heavenly pride dream of, who knows how much opportunity and resources were spent between them—how could it be said to be severed just like that?

But...

Jiang Qinge's heart stirred slightly; the second ten-pillar golden platform Li Luo severed actually had some flaws and hidden dangers, and she previously felt Li Luo forging it now seemed rather hasty.

But looking at it now, this is clearly something Li Luo had prepared long ago.

Perhaps, at the moment he broke through in the Black Cauldron, Li Luo had already thought of the deadly situation they would face today, so he was not hastily forging the second ten-pillar golden platform...

He did it deliberately.

Because of this second ten-pillar golden platform, he never intended to keep it from the beginning, but wanted to use it to...

Sever it!

Using the ten-pillar golden platform as a bargaining chip to break the deadlock, Li Luo's resolve displayed now is simply awe-inspiring.

Jiang Qinge gazed at Li Luo's figure with her beautiful eyes, unconsciously recalling that carefree youth from Southwind City, who now also began to possess extraordinary courage and charm.

A sense of relief welled up in her heart, and then the Primeval Relic Mark between her brows emitted a brilliant radiance; above, the two ten-pillar golden platforms burst forth with unprecedented sacred undulations, blocking the karmic fire.

And as Li Luo's ten-pillar golden platform shattered, instantly a surge of extremely vast and mighty energy roared forth at this moment; the violence of that energy directly crushed this entire void into countless hollows.

Li Luo's qi and blood surged violently within him; severing the ten-pillar golden platform also inflicted severe trauma upon himself, fortunately this second ten-pillar golden platform had just formed not long ago and had not yet become too tightly connected with him, otherwise at this moment alone the backlash would be enough to make him drink a pot.

Li Luo endured the intense pain within, his hands suddenly forming seals; only to see the first ten-pillar golden platform burst forth with rolling suction, directly drawing in all the energy generated when the second ten-pillar golden platform shattered.

These two energies originally share the same source, so the first ten-pillar golden platform absorbs it quite smoothly.

However, the only problem is that this energy is too violent and vast, causing the volume of Li Luo's first ten-pillar golden platform to continuously expand, until finally it truly resembles a giant mountain, standing between heaven and earth.

Ah!

And at this moment, Li Luo's throat suddenly burst forth with a painful low roar; only to see his half-dragon humanoid body actually appeared to crack at this moment, due to the violent energy generated from the shattering of the second ten-pillar golden platform, which also surged into his body.

With his current dragon-transformed state and the physical strength bolstered by the True Dragon Physique, he actually could not withstand this energy's scouring!

This shows how terrifying the energy generated when the second ten-pillar golden platform shattered is.

Li Luo's surface purple-gold dragon scales shattered completely at this moment, even his flesh and blood were melting, appearing bloody and extremely miserable.

Later, not only flesh and blood, but even bones revealed cracks.

Li Luo gritted his teeth tightly; suddenly, golden light burst forth from his bones, that golden light as if forging his bones into gold, and even on the bone surface, fine dragon patterns could be seen.

That is... Coiled Dragon Golden Bone Pill!

This is a treasure pill Jiang Qinge previously gave Li Luo capable of forging golden bones; Li Luo had never used it, but now it is just right to strengthen his bones to withstand the violent energy.

But this is clearly still not enough!

Even though his first ten-pillar golden platform has already absorbed a large amount of energy, Li Luo's physical body still cannot bear this load, energy swelling within him, nearly about to burst his body apart.

And the astonishing energy suddenly bursting forth here from Li Luo also drew Qin Lian's attention; her black pupils swept over, and she instantly let out a resentful laugh: "What a fool, actually daring to sever the ten-pillar golden platform!"

"You want to fight me to the death? Quite bold, but you fool only know to sever the golden platform, yet never considered whether you can withstand this power?"

"I don't even need to act; you will die under the backlash!"

However, while mocking him like this, Qin Lian instead activated an even more surging karmic fire sweeping downward, obviously not intending to give Li Luo even a chance to fight to the death.

Jiang Qinge watched the rolling karmic fire approaching, her chest heaving deeply, her golden eyes becoming extremely cold.

Li Luo is fighting to the death; here she naturally must give her all to buy him enough time.

Jiang Qinge's brow mark, the Primeval Relic Mark, at this moment began to ignite, transforming into a kind of wondrous holy flame; this holy flame is extremely terrifying, nourished by phase affinity, if sustained too long, it may even cause her phase affinity to drop in rank.

But now, Li Luo has shattered the ten-pillar golden platform—what does she have to regret about this ninth-rank Bright Phase?

At this moment, it is the most suffocating desperate situation they have encountered these years; even the initial assassination attempt by Shen Jinxiao never felt this oppressive.

Vast Bright Phase power flowed, the wondrous holy flame drifted, desperately blocking that karmic fire.

And Jiang Qinge's brow Primeval Relic Mark, in this standoff, gradually dimmed.

When Jiang Qinge was giving her all to buy time for Li Luo, at this moment the black snake coiled around his wrist suddenly melted, turning into black liquid, directly merging into his body, then coating his golden bones.

Instantly, the golden color became much darker.

That chilling sensation immediately eased Li Luo somewhat.

But this, still not enough!

"Li Luo, I'll help you!"

From behind, another light shout came; only to see Li Hongyou leap into the air, her internal phase power gushing out, with a strange fragrance spreading.

A nine-pillar Marquis Platform hovered above her head.

The Marquis Platform radiated brilliant light; within the light, a red vermilion fruit appeared, swaying and emitting a strong fragrance.

Roar!

After the red vermilion fruit, a slender dragon shadow coiled into view, that dragon shadow like jade, emitting an elegant feeling, flowing with medicinal fragrance.

This is precisely Li Hongyou's Pharmacist Jade Long Xiang!

Li Hongyou lightly bit her tongue tip, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood; then the jade dragon shadow let out a long cry, exhaling rolling cyan qi, simultaneously merging with the fruit's qi and quickly fusing with the essence blood.

Three fusions combined, only to see actually forming a round, cyan spirit pill; on the pill's surface, three dragon patterns formed, coiled and sleeping.

When this cyan spirit pill appeared, the entire heaven and earth were filled with rolling strange fragrance.

Li Hongyou's face turned pale to the extreme; this cyan spirit pill is exactly the unique ability of her Pharmacist Jade Long Xiang, the Jade Dragon Pill!

This pill has nine transformations, wondrous and peerless, preserving the physical body from extinction.

But Li Hongyou at this moment could only condense three transformations of the Jade Dragon Pill!

Additionally, this is not a true Jade Dragon Pill; its effect merely replicates most of the Jade Dragon Pill's effects for a certain period, and once the medicinal efficacy passes, it will dissipate.

Even so, it is still considered marvelous, sufficient to reverse many situations.

"Go!"

Li Hongyou let out a soft shout, and only then did the Jade Dragon Pill shoot forth, directly piercing into Li Luo's shattered flesh.

Instantly, a green light spread; wherever it passed, the collapse of the flesh began to show signs of stagnation.

Under the desperate protection of Li Lingjing and Li Hongyou, Li Luo finally bore the terrifying power brought by his self-amputation of the second Ten-Pillar Golden Terrace.

In Li Luo's eyes, substantial bright light surged forth; he slowly clenched his grip on the hilt of the Dragon-Elephant Blade, and that terrifying power actually caused the Dragon-Elephant Blade to emit faint, unbearable lamenting sounds.

"Qinge sister, Lingjing auntie, Hongyou senior sister..."

"Thank you."

"Next, this Qin Lian..."

"I'll cut it!" ("ps: Is the number exactly 5000? The word control technique is quite impressive")
