Chapter 1497: Light Star

"You can actually draw down that star that conceals an Unparalleled Art?"

Li Luo was utterly astonished. This move of Jiang Jiang Qinge's was truly something even he hadn't thought of—of course, perhaps no normal person would think of this, right?

Jiang Jiang Qinge smiled faintly and said, "Ordinary people probably really can't do it. It's because my own light-attribute is too pure, so naturally I have some keen resonance with that Light Unparalleled Art."

"I can faintly sense that among those stars hanging high, there truly exists a kind of aura that even the light aspect within me is yearning for. This has never happened before."

"I think perhaps only a true Light Unparalleled Art could trigger this kind of resonance."

Jiang Jiang Qinge patiently explained, "And this resonance is actually two-way. That sealed Light Marquis Art is also yearning to be revealed to the world, so if I strengthen this connection, it should be possible to draw that star concealing the Light Unparalleled Art, making it break free from the Sky Mirror Tower's original rules and then fall."

Li Luo suddenly understood. Then he closed his eyes as well, and the resonance palaces within his body all began to tremble, emitting a rumbling sound.

After a few breaths, he opened his eyes and said disappointedly, "Why isn't there any star concealing an Unparalleled Art resonating with me? Does it look down on my three palaces and six aspects?"

Jiang Jiang Qinge smiled and said, "Perhaps there's no Unparalleled Art here that matches your aspect affinity."

Her method was rather unorthodox, and her aspect affinity with Li Luo followed completely different paths. She was a pure light aspect, so she would be extremely well-matched with a Light Unparalleled Art of the same attribute, allowing both sides to resonate with each other.

Li Luo shrugged. He actually wasn't that envious of the Unparalleled Art, after all he already possessed the "Myriad Aspects Dragon Fang Sword Formation." Although this art was only an "Unparalleled Prototype Art," it was extremely compatible with him. Now he had only condensed four Dragon Fang Swords, yet he had already pushed its might to the top-tier upper-grade Si Si Tianming level.

If he could reach five Dragon Fang Swords, then perhaps he would truly experience for the first time the power of an "Unparalleled Prototype Art."

Moreover, in the future, once he resolved the fourth Empty Aspect, he could evolve even more Dragon Fang Swords. At that time, this "Myriad Aspects Dragon Fang Sword Formation" would no longer be a prototype art, but a true Unparalleled Art.

"Li Luo, protect my law for me, I'll receive the star." Jiang Jiang Qinge said.

Then her hands rapidly formed seals. At her smooth brow, the Sugu Aspect Pattern that radiated an ultimate sacred aura also became incomparably bright at this moment. Sacred fluctuations spread out, making the current Jiang Jiang Qinge appear like a goddess.

Li Luo then drew out the Dragon Elephant Thunder Blade and stood at her side, as tremendous and powerful aspect force surged out from within his body.

At this moment, stars descended from the heavens. Some of the top powerhouses present were itching to try, preparing to intercept stars and seize fortune. And Jiang Jiang Qinge's strange actions here inevitably drew some puzzled gazes.

However, their puzzlement didn't last long before they felt the energy in the world suddenly erupt into chaos. The space of this thirty-third layer seemed to tremble at this moment.

One after another, horrified gazes were cast toward the outside of the heavens, because they discovered the source of the trembling came from there.

And in the reflections of those numerous pupils, they saw that outside the firmament, there was actually a massive star that suddenly slowly broke away from its original position, then crashed down with a rumble.

Boom!

That star was more majestic than any before it, and on the star there was actually vast and boundless holy light flowing, like a blazing sun, its bright rays driving away the darkness from every corner.

Holy Que'er, Zhou Jun, Song Jing, Lin Ju, and these upper eighth-grade Marquis powerhouses all wore faces full of shock. Under the illumination of this light star, the might of the stars that had fallen before seemed somewhat dim.

And what kind of opportunity would such a magnificent light star contain?

At this moment, everyone's breathing suddenly became coarse and heavy, and three characters flashed through their minds.

Unparalleled Art!

Everyone knew that within the thirty-third layer of the Sky Mirror Tower, there was contained an enormous fortune like an Unparalleled Art, but such fortune could only be encountered, not sought. Looking over a hundred years, only one person had been fortunate enough to obtain it.

No one had expected that today they would be lucky enough to encounter it.

However... the light energy on this star was too dense, which indicated that this Unparalleled Art was of the light attribute.

The hearts of the crowd stirred, and then their gazes suddenly shot toward Jiang Jiang Qinge's position. At this moment, the Sugu Aspect Pattern on her brow was radiating sacred brilliance, and this brilliance, accompanying the fall of that light star, was growing ever brighter.

So Holy Que'er, Zhou Jun, and the others all sucked in a cold breath and understood.

This star that contained the Light Unparalleled Art had actually been drawn down by Jiang Jiang Qinge!

Can the thirty-third layer be played like this?

And while everyone was in disbelief, there was only one person whose expression was somewhat uncertain.

That was the Fifth Mingxuan.

His pupils trembled slightly as he gazed at the light star falling from the firmament, his heart in turmoil: "She actually discovered this star too? And even drew it down!"

The Fifth Mingxuan's expression turned solemn. Actually, the secret contained in this star, he had known in advance, because his teacher, that Light King, had discovered this light star on the thirty-third layer back then, and had even left a trace of aura on it.

The Fifth Mingxuan's main goal in coming to the Sky Mirror Tower this time was to use the aura left by his teacher to find this light star and draw it down.

But what he hadn't expected was that before he even began to act on his side, Jiang Jiang Qinge had already discovered it and drawn it down.

Moreover, unlike him who needed the secret aid of his teacher's aura, Jiang Jiang Qinge's side had clearly relied on herself to establish a connection with that star.

Such talent was truly breathtaking.

"Can't let her receive the star alone, otherwise once the star completely falls, the light energy on it will be branded by Jiang Jiang Qinge. When the time comes, anyone who steps onto the star besides her will be rejected by the light energy within."

The Fifth Mingxuan's gaze gradually grew sharp. The first-clear opportunity on the Light Peak before, he could yield, but this Light Unparalleled Art determined his future path to King-level, so no matter what, he would yield no more.

Jiang Jiang Qinge, it's finally time to truly clash with you, isn't it? Speaking of which, I'm really looking forward to it.

The Fifth Mingxuan clenched his hand, and a token appeared in his palm. The token was like cast from glazed glass, and in its center, the character "Light" was inscribed.

The moment this token appeared, endless light immediately surged forth, and an inexplicable pressure spread along with it.

This was precisely the token of his teacher, Light King Qi Huang.

The Fifth Mingxuan held the Light Token in his hand, his hands reverently clasped together, his body slightly bent, his mouth seemingly muttering something. After a few breaths, the Light Token in his hand suddenly shot out tremendous bright light. This bright light pierced through the horizon and in an instant connected with that slowly falling light star.

The Fifth Mingxuan wanted to use the token in his hand to also imprint his own aura into the light star before it fell.

The Fifth Mingxuan's sudden move here also caused the other top powerhouses to show astonishment, and then they all understood—the former had also set his sights on the Light Unparalleled Art contained in this star.

And from the looks of it, the Fifth Mingxuan had clearly come prepared.

And while the Fifth Mingxuan was making his move to receive the light star, he took a deep breath, turned his head, and said to Song Jing beside him, "Mentor Song Jing, please lend me your strength."

The crimson fan in Song Jing's hand slowly fanned, emitting a scorching aura. He smiled and said, "Mingxuan, just say it, and I will naturally give my full assistance."

The Fifth Mingxuan was a disciple of Light King Qi Huang, and in the future had hope of advancing to King-level. Song Jing had been on good terms with him for many years and naturally understood how great his potential was.

"Help me interfere with Jiang Jiang Qinge, don't let her touch that light star before me." The Fifth Mingxuan said calmly.

Before an Unparalleled Art, any means were justified.

The struggle for the Great Dao was inherently cruel.

Song Jing was not surprised by this and said slowly, "Once we make this move, we'll have offended two Unparalleled Prodigies."

The Fifth Mingxuan nodded and said, "There will be repayment in the future."

Song Jing smiled, then he said no more. The crimson fan in his hand suddenly swept out violently, and fire blazed brilliantly between heaven and earth, finally transforming into a prairie of crimson fire that swept directly toward the position where Jiang Jiang Qinge was.

Hum!

Crimson fire swept forth, but before it could approach Jiang Jiang Qinge, three ten-pillar golden platforms were seen soaring skyward. At the same time, the void shattered as a black dragon, riding bone-chilling dark water, roared out and collided with the sky-filling crimson fire.

Boom, boom!

The void trembled violently as energy ran rampant.

As the energy gradually dissipated, Song Jing stepped forward. He looked toward Jiang Jiang Qinge and saw a tall, upright, handsome youth with grey-white hair, his hand resting on an ancient straight blade at his waist, his gaze cold and sharp as a blade's edge shooting toward him.

It was Li Luo.

Li Luo's gaze was ice-cold as he stared at Song Jing and said slowly, "Song Jing, don't meddle in other people's business."

A soft, feminine smile surfaced on Song Jing's face as his crimson fan tapped lightly in his palm.

"Li Luo, having been entrusted by someone, I have no choice but to act."

"Besides, can your unrivaled Third Rank stop me?"
