Chapter 1641: Jiang Jiang Qinge Ascends to Unrivaled
Vast, surging light-attribute energy filled the world as another sacred, magnificent Light Unrivaled Tribulation swiftly gathered. That pure, utterly sacred light aura made even the heavens and earth seem to brighten.
Even the Heavenly Kings present cast a glance at this sight.
"Such refined, sacred light resonance power—looks like another Light King is about to appear in the Outer Shenzhou," Jiang Li Tianwang sighed. Although at this point Jiang Jiang Qinge would only be a seventh-grade Unrivaled even if she broke through successfully, the potential she had revealed was already quite extraordinary.
At the Marquis Realm, she already bore three ninth-grade Light Phases, one of which had even reached the upper ninth-grade tier—a configuration that surpassed even many long-established Double-Crowned Kings.
This Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge—one a Myriad Phases Seed, one a Primordial Seed—may well be the hope of the Outer Shenzhou in the future.
Within the bronze mask that Yin Li Tianwang had transformed into, pale-white flames flickered slightly. He stared at Jiang Jiang Qinge's figure, and a trace of an unreadable expression surfaced in his eyes.
Still, what difference could a seventh-grade Unrivaled Marquis—even one who had just broken through—make to the current situation?
The various Heavenly Kings all withdrew their gazes and returned to their own magical duels and standoffs.
Yet the Unrivaled Tribulation above Jiang Jiang Qinge's head was accumulating at a startling speed, forming even more violently than the previous one.
Clearly, although that earlier Unrivaled Tribulation had failed, it had given Jiang Jiang Qinge enough experience. Most importantly, the "Minor Boundary Pill" given by the Pill Saint truly possessed wonders beyond imagination. In Jiang Jiang Qinge's perception, this pill even had the effect of raising the success rate of breaking through to the King Realm.
Such a miraculous pill was hard to find in the world; if it were released, it would surely make many Heavenly King-level powers red-eyed with envy and contention.
Boom!
Within the Unrivaled Tribulation, beams of tribulation light suddenly erupted. The tribulation light was filled with dense Light Origin, then came howling down from all directions toward the six Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms behind Jiang Jiang Qinge.
Boom, boom!
Under the tribulation light transformed from those strands of Light Origin, the six Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms strained to endure. Only by withstanding the tempering of this Origin tribulation light could the seventh Ten-Pillar Golden Platform be forged.
At Jiang Jiang Qinge's brow, the Sacred Phase crystal core appeared like a divine eye standing upright, while two Ancient Tracing Phase Patterns flowed within it.
One upper ninth-grade Light Phase, two middle ninth-grade Light Phases!
Supported by such a deep foundation, the six Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms absorbed all the tribulation light transformed from the Light Origin. The next instant, sacred light poured down, converging at the center of the six Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms.
Blazing light erupted, as if a sacred great sun were being born.
Anyone could see that within that sacred great sun, the seventh Ten-Pillar Golden Platform was taking shape—and at an astonishing speed!
This sight made Pang Pang Qianyuan, Lan Lan Lingzi, and Li Li Qingying all unable to stop themselves from exclaiming in admiration. Jiang Jiang Qinge's breakthrough was simply even faster than Li Luo's earlier!
"It seems that previous failure wasn't entirely without effect. Jiang Qinge's seventh Ten-Pillar Golden Platform was actually only a final step away; now she's just filling in that gap."
Amid the crowd's amazement, within that sacred great sun, countless beams of light burst forth. A pillar of bright light shot straight into the sky, causing the world's light to blaze brilliantly. Vast, surging light energy transformed into streams of radiance, pouring in endlessly, all of it sinking into that seventh Ten-Pillar Golden Platform.
At this moment, seven Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms stood tall in the void.
Above the Ten-Pillar Golden Platforms, a towering Unrivaled Divine Throne gradually revealed its outline. Compared with Li Luo's, this Unrivaled Divine Throne was slightly different—its entire body was like glazed crystal, inscribed with countless sacred runes, as if representing the source of light in the world.
As the outline of the Unrivaled Divine Throne appeared, Jiang Jiang Qinge's slender hand clenched, and the Sacred Phoenix Umbrella appeared in her grasp. She used the umbrella as a sword and stepped forward lightly.
Streak after streak of profoundly mysterious sword-posture afterimages, radiating a sacred aura, materialized out of thin air.
In the end, those sword-posture afterimages merged together, transforming into a massive sacred phantom.
That phantom's features could not be made out, but twelve wings grew from its back.
And when the Pill Saint saw this twelve-winged phantom, surprise immediately appeared on her cheeks. She murmured, "This is... the Twelve-Wing Sacred Spirit Sword Dance Art?!"
How could she possibly be unfamiliar with this Unrivaled Art passed down from the Faceless Holy Sect?!
Jiang Jiang Qinge then activated the "Twelve-Wing Sacred Spirit Sword Dance Art," transforming into light-attribute sword qi that surged skyward, all of it sinking into that Unrivaled Divine Throne.
For an Unrivaled Divine Throne to be successfully forged, an Unrivaled Art is needed as its foundation. The more Unrivaled Arts one masters, the more complete and solid that foundation becomes.
Earlier, when Li Luo forged his Unrivaled Divine Throne, he used the "Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array" and the "Nine Dragon Sacred Emperor Seal" as its foundation. The "Twelve-Wing Sacred Spirit Sword Dance Art" leans toward the light attribute, but his Light Phase is only a secondary phase, so for now it still lacks a bit of polish. However, this isn't too big a problem—once his phase attributes are improved later, or his own strength grows, he can add more Unrivaled Arts then to complete the Unrivaled Divine Throne.
Jiang Jiang Qinge had the same plan, so she didn't pay too much attention here either, intending to directly activate the Unrivaled Divine Throne into shape.
But at this moment the Pill Saint suddenly spoke: "Your light-attribute talent is so outstanding. I happen to have one more light-attribute Unrivaled Art here—you may try inscribing it into the Unrivaled Divine Throne."
She extended her palm, and sacred light surged within it. Within the sacred light was actually a pair of eyeballs carved from glazed crystal. Those eyeballs were like living things, still slowly blinking, while endless sacred light washed and flowed across the surface of their pupils.
Whoosh!
From the crystal pupils, two beams of sacred light shot out. The sacred light shot directly into Jiang Jiang Qinge's pupils, then transformed into vast, obscure information flooding her mind.
"This is..."
"Unrivaled Art, Dawn Light Purifying World Pupils!"
Jiang Jiang Qinge comprehended that information, and her heart trembled slightly. This Pill Saint had actually gifted her a light-attribute Unrivaled Art!
This generous gift could not be called anything but weighty.
Jiang Jiang Qinge had no time to thank her, and immediately entered the Primordial Seed's "Divine Perception" state. At once, that vast information—which ordinary people would find difficult to comprehend and ponder—was entirely imprinted in her heart.
Numerous key points and bottlenecks were crossed as if water flowing into channels.
Moreover, this light-attribute Unrivaled Art called "Dawn Light Purifying World Pupils" seemed to suit her remarkably well. As the vast, refined light-attribute phase power within her circulated in its unique manner, strands of light patterns also gathered in Jiang Jiang Qinge's radiant eyes at this moment.
Her already deep, captivating eyes became extraordinarily dazzling now, like the eyes of a deity.
In just a brief moment, this unfamiliar light-attribute Unrivaled Art was initially mastered by Jiang Jiang Qinge. Such cultivation speed made people exclaim that it was inconceivable.
And as the pupil art first took shape, Jiang Jiang Qinge immediately activated it. The next instant, the "Twelve-Wing Sacred Spirit Sword Dance Art" and the "Dawn Light Purifying World Pupils" transformed into sacred light patterns, inscribed upon the walls of that Unrivaled Divine Throne.
At this point, the Unrivaled Divine Throne was finally complete.
Seeing this sight, Li Luo couldn't help but reveal a joyful smile. Jiang Jiang Qinge had been able to take this step earlier, but to cover for him, she had used the power of the Unrivaled Tribulation to interfere with the Dark Demon King, paying the price of abandoning her breakthrough to buy him enough time.
And now, she had walked this step once again.
"Pill Saint senior, thank you," Li Luo said, cupping his fist toward the Pill Saint in gratitude for the Unrivaled Art she had gifted earlier.
The Pill Saint gazed at Jiang Jiang Qinge's figure and said slowly, "No need. She possesses unimaginable light-attribute talent. It just so happens that the 'Twelve-Wing Sacred Spirit Sword Dance Art' she cultivates, as well as this 'Dawn Light Purifying World Pupils,' were both once cultivated by the Sect Master back then."
Li Luo was stunned, silent for several breaths, then suddenly asked, "Did that Sect Master of the Faceless Holy Sect also possess a Light Phase?"
Information about that Sect Master seemed to be obscured by the mists of time; even contemporary Heavenly Kings didn't know. But this Pill Saint was someone who had survived from the primordial era—other Heavenly Kings might not know, but she might not necessarily...
Sure enough, under Li Luo's gaze, the Pill Saint actually nodded and said calmly, "The Sect Master naturally possessed a Light Phase, and that was also the Sect Master's strongest phase attribute."
Li Luo's expression didn't change, but in his heart monstrous waves suddenly surged at this moment, with countless emotions exploding and churning in his mind.
Because at this moment, he recalled Jiang Jiang Qinge's origins.
She had been brought out from the ruins of the Faceless Holy Sect headquarters by Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan.
And judging from that Sect Master's crystal aspect—the wind and fire aspects were left behind in the world, and moreover hidden away everywhere—could there be a possibility...
That Sect Master's light aspect is hidden within Jiang Jiang Qinge's body?!!!
