Chapter 1584: Li Li Tianji Goes All In

Li Luo waited one day in Zhao Shenjiang City, and the other two lineage heads of the Li Li Tianwang line, who had previously been stationed elsewhere, arrived.

The Dragon Horn Lineage Head: Li Li Jinjiao.

The Dragon Bone Lineage Head: Li Li Xuanwu.

After these two lineage heads arrived, Dan Tai Lan first had them carefully examine the "Life Gold Fruit"; only after receiving confirmation that it showed no anomalies did she safely dissolve it into the Thunder Bamboo.

As the "Life Gold Fruit" dissolved into it, the Thunder Bamboo underwent dramatic changes: the golden lightning flowing along its surface grew more vast and turbulent, and deep within the golden thunder sea, ancient, primordial thunder runes began to appear on the dragon egg.

The aura within it steadily grew more immense and majestic.

Yet, complete rebirth still required a considerable amount of time.

After resolving the issue of the "Thunder Bamboo," Dan Tai Lan seized the opportunity of all five lineage heads gathering to reveal Li Luo's plan to travel to the Eastern Shenzhou's Great Xia.

"Li Luo is going to Great Xia?"

Upon hearing this plan, Li Li Xuanwu furrowed his brow and couldn't help saying: "Can't you just stay? The Eastern Shenzhou is far too distant—even our Li Li Tianwang line's reach cannot extend there. Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge's Wansheng Seed and Original Seed have already been exposed; what if something goes wrong?"

Li Li Qingying and Li Li Jinjiao, who had just learned of Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge's identities, both nodded in agreement. Li Li Jinjiao said gravely: "Even Original Seeds have perished before they could grow in this long river of time. You should be cultivating in secret within our Li Li Tianwang line—we'll provide you with the best cultivation conditions. At the very least, wait until you achieve the Peerless Marquis rank."

The Wansheng Seed and Original Seed are the rarest talents in the world—even the Sacred Seeds of the major Li Tianwang lineages fall short by a margin. They had never imagined such dual seeds would appear within their own Li Li Tianwang line.

Therefore, these seeds must be protected at all costs.

Li Luo said helplessly: "Thank you, elders, for your care—but some responsibilities cannot be avoided. Even the Wansheng Seed and Original Seed must endure countless trials before they can reveal their edge and ascend to Li Tianwang. Pure protection may only waste this talent."

The lineage heads present paused, then silently nodded. Li Luo's words held truth—no Li Tianwang in history had risen through mere protection.

"Could a lineage head be sent in your place?" Li Li Tianji proposed.

"One lineage head won't solve Great Xia's problems—there are already at least four Alien Kings appearing there," Li Luo shook his head.

Li Li Tianji fell silent for several breaths, then helplessly turned to Dan Tai Lan: "Dan Tai Lan, how do you plan to arrange this?"

"Little Luo must return to Great Xia—that is their responsibility. I originally intended to go with them, but if I leave now, all progress on the Beast Embryo will be lost; if it breaks free, it will bring even greater calamity." Dan Tai Lan said.

"The Beast Embryo absolutely requires Dan Tai Lan's power!" Li Li Tianji quickly said. The "Myriad Phenomena Forest Prison" suppressing the Beast Embryo relied primarily on Dan Tai Lan's strength—if she left, the prison would collapse.

So no one could leave but Dan Tai Lan.

"At least one lineage head must accompany Little Luo for protection, and the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards should go with him too—let them use this as training for their military force," Dan Tai Lan said bluntly.

"With the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards, even if Little Luo encounters a true Alien King, he can handle it."

Li Li Tianji and the others exchanged glances. This departure would carry away a significant portion of their Li Li Tianwang line's core strength.

They didn't even know what kind of calamity awaited in Great Xia—if anything went wrong, it would strike at the very bones of their Li Li Tianwang line.

Yet they couldn't let Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge return alone—even though they were now Peerless Sixth Rank and capable of self-defense, if anything happened to them, the Ancestor would surely rage back from the Heavenly Abyss and pound them into dust.

Finally, Li Li Tianji gritted his teeth and declared decisively: "Fine. The Five Heavenly Dragon Guards will accompany Li Luo. And Li Qingying, you will go too—you're meticulous and skilled in strange arrays; you're better suited for protection."

"Also, take the Five Heavenly Dragon Treasures with you. When united, their power rivals true King-level artifacts. With Li Luo's current strength, he can finally unleash their true potential."

Li Luo was startled—Li Li Tianji's decisiveness surprised him. Not only did he agree to send a lineage head and the Five Heavenly Dragon Guards, but he also added the precious Five Heavenly Dragon Treasures. When united, these five artifacts possessed King-level power, though their effectiveness had been severely restricted during this calamity due to the "Li Tianwang Edict."

"Thank you, Li Tianji Lineage Head."

Li Luo bowed in gratitude. He had never liked Li Li Tianji due to past generational grudges, but he had to admit—this Head of the Mountain Lineage was a man of great resolve.

Li Li Tianji waved his hand. "No need for such formalities. When the Ancestor named you the Sixth Lineage Head, I knew he had placed the next several thousand years of our Li Li Tianwang line's prosperity upon you. Now that the Ancestor guards the Heavenly Abyss and cannot return, as Head of the Mountain Lineage, I will carry out his will to the end."

Here, he paused, turning to Li Li Jinjiao and Li Li Xuanwu: "Did you bring it?"

Li Li Jinjiao and Li Li Xuanwu exchanged glances; then the latter traced his finger across his broad, muscular chest—his flesh split open, and a golden glow leapt out.

As soon as the golden glow appeared, a deep, majestic dragon roar echoed, shaking the void.

But the area had already been sealed by several lineage heads—the dragon's roar did not spread, so outsiders sensed nothing.

Yet Li Luo felt his inner "Little Dragon Sacred Seed" violently tremble, emitting a low, submissive dragon cry.

His inner Heavenly Dragon Phase, stirred by the presence, surged upward from the crown of his head, forming above him a purple-gold Heavenly Dragon Phase, radiating vast, overwhelming Heavenly Dragon might.

The Heavenly Dragon Phase looked down upon the golden glow—inside it was a perfectly round golden dragon pearl, inscribed with ancient dragon patterns; within the pearl, cloud seas churned, faintly revealing a divine dragon silhouette winding and gliding, summoning wind and rain.

"This is..."

Li Luo licked his lips, his eyes blazing with fervor. What else could cause his inner Little Dragon Sacred Seed to submit, if not the true "Dragon Sacred Seed" of the Li Li Tianwang line?!

Was Li Li Tianji bringing this to give it to him?

His heart quickened—he had seen the power of Sacred Seeds before, from Lü Qing'er and Qin Yi. They were the true core of every Li Tianwang lineage.

If he possessed the "Dragon Sacred Seed," he could elevate his "Heavenly Dragon Phase" to Upper Ninth Rank!

Upper Ninth Rank Heavenly Dragon Phase!

His strength would surge again!

It would give him far greater confidence against true Alien Kings!

Li Li Tianji this time...

Really went all in.
