Chapter 995: Three Palaces and Six Ministers

Li Li Fengyi, Li Li Jingtao and the others caught the jade bottles Li Luo tossed over, and after a momentary daze, they hurriedly opened them to inspect, and when they saw the many drops of "Spirit Phase Golden Dew" flowing within, they couldn't help but be somewhat stunned.

"How do you have so much Spirit Phase Golden Dew?" Li Li Fengyi said in shock.

They had worked hard to gather it all along the way, only harvesting about a hundred drops, and after she and Li Li Fuling activated the permissions of the Golden Dew Platform, there wasn't much left, but now what Li Luo casually tossed out was probably several hundred drops?

"Li Lingjing Cousin and I were lucky enough to enter a Mi Jing, where we obtained quite a bit of Spirit Phase Golden Dew," Li Luo said with a smile.

In that golden great hall, their harvest was extremely bountiful, and after dealing with the Erosion Spirit True Demon, he had also swept the battlefield, casually looting quite a lot of Spirit Phase Golden Dew from the corpses.

"It's fine, just keep them," Li Luo said with a smile when he saw them still hesitating.

Li Li Fengyi and Li Li Jingtao smiled and nodded in agreement upon hearing this, while Deng Deng Fengxian was still hesitating over whether to accept Li Luo's generous gift, but at this moment Li Li Fengyi's gaze turned toward her and she questioned, "You don't want to accept my third brother's gift—do you have rebellious intentions?"

With such a heavy hat being placed on her, Deng Deng Fengxian was also somewhat helpless, and could only say to Li Luo, "Thank you, Dragon Head."

Li Luo smiled and waved his hand.

At this moment, Li Li Fengyi glanced sideways at Li Li Hongli and said casually, "Our third brother is still loyal and righteous, willing to dip into his own pocket to make up the difference for his companions—not like some people who contribute nothing yet still want to grab a spot for free."

Li Li Hongli's face instantly flushed red—how could she not know that Li Li Fengyi was mocking her for wanting to take the second spot that the Third Branch had scraped together.

However, if it weren't for Li Luo's intervention, relying on her own status, she really would have had a very good chance of getting that second spot; although the people from the other two branches might have been slightly displeased, it could ultimately have been suppressed.

But now Li Luo has generously produced so much Spirit Phase Golden Dew, even giving Lu Lu Qingmei a spot as well. If she were to greedily take that second spot at this point, the comparison between the two would surely cause the people of the other two branches to harbor resentment—and this was clearly what Li Luo wanted to see, an attempt to divide the relationships between their Dragon Blood, Dragon Bone, and Dragon Horn branches.

Li Li Wuyuan's expression was also somewhat unnatural. He thought for a moment, then smiled at the teams of the Dragon Horn and Dragon Bone branches and said, "We have two spots here—one goes to Li Qingfeng, and the other will be decided by you two branches picking someone."

To pacify the teams of the other two branches, he could only give up the spot originally meant for Li Li Hongli.

Upon hearing this, Li Li Hongli immediately wanted to say something, but Li Li Wuyuan's gaze swept over: "It's just one 'Pearl Condensing Art'—our Dragon Blood branch has collected many as well, they may not necessarily be worse than what's here."

Li Li Hongli could only swallow her words. She wasn't a fool; she knew Li Li Wuyuan couldn't possibly favor her publicly right now, otherwise provoking resentment from the other two branches might just let the Dragon Fang branch's generation gain the upper hand.

This outcome made her somewhat regretful. If she had known, she wouldn't have opened her mouth to mock Li Luo and Li Li Fengyi, only to end up losing her own spot in the end.

However, Li Luo paid no attention to her vexation. He raised his head, his gaze cast toward that massive Heavenly Gang Wheel, and at this moment, someone had already gathered a hundred drops of Spirit Phase Golden Dew and began to leap onto the high platform.

Among them, Li Luo saw some familiar figures—Qin Yi, Zhu Zhu Dayu, Jiang Jiang Wanyu, Zhao Zhao Shenjiang and others were all present, clearly all quite interested in the "Pearl Condensing Art."

Although they all came from powerful major forces with deep foundations, the Pearl Condensing Art was quite unique—it required compatibility with one's own Affinity Rank to enhance the efficiency of condensing Tian Zhu, so often, finding a reliable Pearl Condensing Art required some luck.

Under Li Luo's gaze, someone on the high platform was the first to extend their palm, a hundred drops of Spirit Phase Golden Dew resting in their palm, then touching that massive Heavenly Gang Wheel.

As the Jin Guang flowed, the Heavenly Gang Wheel immediately began to slowly rotate, its countless complex ancient patterns flowing with mysterious light like star charts.

The Heavenly Gang Wheel's rotation didn't last long before stopping, and then many gazes saw a ray of light about three zhang long fall from within, landing between the brows of the person activating the Heavenly Gang Wheel.

That person immediately sensed the information in their mind with delight, and after a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on their face.

Presumably, they had obtained a quite satisfactory "Pearl Condensing Art."

Afterward, more and more people began stepping forward to rotate the Heavenly Gang Wheel.

Li Luo watched for a while and noticed a pattern—it seemed the longer the Heavenly Gang Wheel rotated, the brighter and longer the ray of light from the "Pearl Condensing Art" that fell out.

Obviously, this kind of "Pearl Condensing Art" would also have higher efficiency in condensing Tian Zhu.

In just a short moment, several dozen people went up to try, and it seemed the highest ray of light from the "Pearl Condensing Art" obtained was only about ten zhang.

However, as the various prodigies began going up one after another, it seemed the good stuff was also increasing.

Zhu Zhu Dayu, Jiang Jiang Wanyu, Zhao Zhao Shenjiang and others all obtained "Pearl Condensing Arts" with rays of light reaching over thirty zhang, each beaming with joy.

The most astonishing was Qin Yi. Under numerous gazes, she floated up with billowing sleeves, and as her jade-like hand extended, the Heavenly Gang Wheel began to rotate.

The Heavenly Gang Wheel's rotation lasted a full five minutes—this duration made many people's eyelids twitch. In the end, a pale blue ray of light flew down from within the Heavenly Gang Wheel.

The ray of light was a full fifty zhang, like a meteor streaking across, falling toward Qin Yi's smooth brow.

Qin Yi savored the profound "Pearl Condensing Art" in her mind, a hint of joy appearing on her exquisitely beautiful face. This Pearl Condensing Art was no worse than the top few of their Qin Li Tianwang branch, and in terms of compatibility, it suited her even better.

With this "Pearl Condensing Art," her cultivation speed in the Tian Zhu Jing would also increase by several tenths.

This was quite a good harvest.

Qin Yi's graceful figure descended lightly amid many envious gazes, while Li Luo rubbed his hands together and leaped onto the high platform together with Li Li Fengyi and the others.

After the previous tests, Li Luo had already seen clearly—it seemed that the higher one's Affinity Rank, the stronger the ray of light from the "Pearl Condensing Art" obtained, and the higher its grade.

Li Li Fengyi, Li Li Jingtao and the others tried first, and smoothly obtained a "Pearl Condensing Art" with a ray of light about twenty zhang.

Seeing this, Li Luo also extended his palm and touched the Heavenly Gang Wheel.

The Heavenly Gang Wheel was extremely cold, like cold jade. Li Luo's gaze swept over it carefully—he could faintly sense that this object seemed to contain extremely terrifying energy within, but this energy was held back and not released, presumably as a protective mechanism. If anyone tried to destroy the Heavenly Gang Wheel, it would surely trigger a counterattack.

No wonder—such a treasure with such deep foundations, if it could be snatched away, even Li Tianwang-level forces would be tempted. After all, although the "Pearl Condensing Art" is limited to the Tian Zhu Jing, it is a rather crucial part of this realm. With the help of such a treasure, the cultivation of one's subordinates in the Tian Zhu Jing would naturally be a step ahead of others.

As Li Luo's thoughts turned, he had already channeled the hundred drops of Spirit Phase Golden Dew from his palm into the Heavenly Gang Wheel, and then the Heavenly Gang Wheel began to rotate.

Numerous gazes were cast over, including those of Qin Yi, Jiang Jiang Wanyu, Zhao Zhao Shenjiang and others who had already finished.

After all, after Li Luo's battle with Zhao Zhao Shenjiang, his strength had thoroughly reached the peak of his generation, so his every move naturally drew attention.

Their gazes followed the rotation of the Heavenly Gang Wheel.

Then they found their eyes getting a bit sore.

Suddenly, they came to their senses—the rotation time of this Heavenly Gang Wheel was a bit too long!

So their gazes couldn't help but change somewhat. Even Qin Yi's fifty-zhang ray of light "Pearl Condensing Art" hadn't taken this long, had it?

Could Li Luo's three phases be comparable to Qin Yi's Lower Nine Grade Water Phase?

In the crowd, Qin Yi's beautiful eyes were also watching this scene. Her gaze shifted slightly—everyone else thought Li Luo had three phases, but she had discovered in her exchanges with Li Luo that Li Luo's phase power exceeded three types, so Li Luo's three phases might have a distinction between primary and auxiliary phases. If he had three auxiliary phases, wouldn't that mean six types of affinity? With such complex affinities, finding a Pearl Condensing Art compatible with oneself would naturally be extremely difficult—even within this deeply founded Heavenly Gang Wheel, it might not be able to find one.

Thinking that Li Luo might unprecedentedly return empty-handed from this Heavenly Gang Wheel, Qin Yi felt like laughing—not out of schadenfreude, just a simple urge to laugh.

At this moment, Li Luo also felt that the Heavenly Gang Wheel's rotation time was a bit too long, and immediately frowned: "No way? Is finding a Pearl Condensing Art compatible with me this difficult?"

At the moment Li Luo was feeling a bit anxious, he suddenly felt a slight unusual movement within his body.

This unusual movement caused Li Luo's expression to instantly change.

Because he discovered that this unusual movement was actually coming from the mysterious golden wheel within his body.

At this instant, that mysterious golden wheel—which had shown no response no matter how he probed it—seemed to have rotated slightly.

And just at the moment the mysterious golden wheel rotated, Li Luo felt the Heavenly Gang Wheel before him tremble as well. The next instant, the light patterns on the Heavenly Gang Wheel rapidly brightened.

Whoosh!

A beam of light seemed to be spewed out from the deepest part of the Tiangang Wheel.

The moment the light appeared, it resonated with the energy of heaven and earth, transforming into a beam a full hundred zhang long that descended from the sky.

In this region, countless eyes instantly widened, staring at the hundred-zhang beam of light in utter shock—this was a full double what Qin Yi had just unleashed!

Amid those many shocked gazes, the beam of light fell into Li Luo's brow, and he hurriedly investigated at the first instant.

Immediately, complex information began to flow through his mind.

"Three Palaces, Six Aspects Pearl Condensation Art."

When Li Luo scanned through this Pearl Condensation Art, his expression became quite remarkable and filled with astonishment and doubt.

This kind of Pearl Condensation Art...

What kind of compatibility is this?! This is practically tailor-made, for crying out loud!!
