Chapter 1220: Radiant Divineflame Heavenly Ring
Bang!
Heaven and earth shook violently when the shadow of the giant staff covering the sky fell down. The Grand Commanders present felt their scalps turn numb as they watched the battle, not to mention the ordinary members of the Dragon's Fang Guardians. If they didn't know that the strike wasn't targeted at them, they might have fled from the scene in fear.
"Guardian General, Li Changfeng is being reckless. Miss Jiang is an unrivaled talent. If he causes any damage to her foundation, it will be a great loss to the Dragon's Fang Guardians," Luo Jiang, the Left Dragon Fang Envoy, told Li Foluo as he looked up and watched the terrifying attack.
Li Foluo's face remained cold. "She is the one who requested this battle. Each of us has to be responsible for our own choices."
"In that case, why have you taken your Dragon Fang Insignia out?" Luo Jiang responded with a laugh.
There was a plaque in Li Foluo's hand at this moment. It was marked with a giant dragon with its maw wide open. It seemed like the dragon could devour anything. What was most notable was its fangs, which seemed to possess an unparalleled sharpness.
It was the commanding token of the Dragon's Fang Guardians.
Li Foluo could use it as a catalyst to direct the entire Dragon's Fang Guardians as a singular entity. It allowed him to reach a state akin to the state of Harmony used in the Twenty Banners.
The reason he had pulled it out was so he could jump in and rescue Jiang Qing'e if required. He was clearly not acting as coldly as his words made him out to be.
However, Li Foluo's mouth twitched a little as Luo Jiang revealed his intentions. He glared at Luo Jiang and said, "If you don't want to be a Dragon Fang Envoy, I can let Jiang Qing'e replace you immediately."
This brat really had no sense. How could he read his leader's mind like that?
Luo Jiang immediately gave up and replied with a smile, "Guardian General, it looks like you don’t think Jiang Qing'e can endure Li Changfeng’s attack."
Li Foluo frowned. "A Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried is very rare, so I don't know exactly how powerful it can be. Regardless of that, there is a gap of two grades between them, so we need to take the necessary precautions just in case. Jiang Qing'e is also Li Luo's fiancee, and our Lineage Chief thinks highly of her. If something goes wrong here, we won't be able to bear the consequences."
"Oh? Jiang Qing'e is Grand Commander Li Luo's fiancee?" Luo Jiang was surprised to hear this. He assumed they were pretty close since Li Luo had brought her to the Dragon's Fang Guardians. However, he did not expect their relationship to be this exceptional. "It seems like Grand Commander Li Luo is the Dragon's Fang Guardians’ lucky star."
Luo Jiang sighed. Bringing a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried to the Dragon's Fang Guardians was an even bigger achievement than becoming the Dragon's Head.
As the two of them were speaking, their eyes moved over to the slender figure in the sky. She looked particularly small in comparison to the gigantic staff that was pressing down towards her. However, she showed no signs of retreating.
Her presence was spectacular, winning their admiration.
Everyone stared without batting an eyelid. The three dazzling light Spirit Avatars behind Jiang Qing'e suddenly shrank. After a few moments, they turned into three holy halos behind her head.
The halos circulated around her, and everyone could feel worldly natural energy being absorbed into them. All the energy was then converted into dazzling beams of light resonant power.
They were then absorbed into the three divine halos behind Jiang Qing'e, transforming into purified light resonant power.
Under the effects of the three halos, Jiang Qing'e's resonant power undulations grew rapidly.
Her delicate face remained calm and her golden pupils shone brilliantly, then her lips opened slightly and a golden light flowed out of her mouth.
The golden light expanded rapidly with the wind. In just a few moments, it transformed into a brilliant and blinding golden ring.
Complex runes were engraved on the sides of the golden ring and extremely pure light resonant energy circulated inside it. It blazed brightly like a sun over the whole battlefield.
The light resonant power was so dense that flames were ignited on the surface of the ring. It condensed into strands of light that wove with the runes, creating the most primordial sort of light resonant power.
This was an extremely domineering divine energy that caused the world to shake in its presence, as though its majesty couldn’t be contained.
Everyone's faces changed completely. Even Li Foluo and Luo Jiang narrowed their eyes a little and looked at each other. "Is this... a Destiny-grade Duke Art?!"
The power they were feeling was clearly above a Soul Ascension-grade Duke Art.
Even Li Luo was surprised to see this. He hadn’t seen her use this Destiny-grade Duke Art before.
In fact, its grade was likely comparable to the complete Three Dragons’ Heavenly Banner Canon.
This seemed to be even stronger than the Destiny-grade Seven Treasures Glazed Sword of Light.
"Did Sister Qing'e learn this Destiny-grade Duke Art from the Third School Master of Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College too?" Li Luo sighed. It was clear that Jiang Qing'e had as many aces as Li Luo.
Jiang Qing'e continued to form hand seals as she channeled her energy into the golden ring. Suddenly, Divine Mist surged out of her Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried. further augmenting the golden ring.
The flames on the ring began to flare up. At the same time, the light resonant power within the flames was so viscous, it resembled holy water. It was an enchanting sight to see both fire and water interweaving together to create a work of art.
"That is... Transcendent Divine Mist..." Li Foluo slowly said.
"Transcendent Divine Mist?" Luo Jiang asked in confusion.
"It's something that only Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried Dukes have. In terms of power and application ability, it is far superior to an ordinary Duke's Divine Mist. With its aid, Jiang Qing'e's Duke Art will become even more terrifying," Li Foluo explained.
At this point, Luo Jiang could not help but sigh. He finally understood why Jiang Qing'e had the confidence to challenge a third-grade Duke.
Three ninth-grade light resonances, a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried, Transcendent Divine Mist, and a Destiny-grade Duke Art!
Each one of these was enough to make any ordinary person jealous, yet Jiang Qing'e possessed all of them. With all these extraordinary tools at her disposal, it was understandable why she would dare to challenge someone two grades above her.
She was truly unrivaled in her own grade.
At this moment, the gigantic staff tore through the sky and reached right above Jiang Qing'e, exerting an immense amount of pressure. Even the protective shield casted by Li Foluo was trembling from it.
Jiang Qing'e took a deep breath. She calmed down the rigorous resonant power in her body and raised her hands. The golden ring flew up and clashed with the gigantic staff.
At the next moment, a soft voice echoed within Jiang Qing'e's heart. "Radiant Divineflame Heavenly Ring."
Bang!
The golden ring shook vigorously and emitted an immense, white divine flame. It flew through the sky with a brilliant light energy that could cleanse the world.
The divine flame directly tore through the void. Everything it touched was purified into emptiness.
It burned like fire, but it was not as hot. It contained extremely concentrated light resonant power that could purify anything in this world.
The divine flame clashed directly with the giant staff.
The firmament itself appeared to have been ripped apart at the moment of collision.
Yet there was no explosion in the air upon contact. There were no terrifying energy storms either.
Instead, the golden staff with the ancient Rhinoceros Dragon let out an anguished wail. Then the divine flame purified the art into oblivion in just a few breaths of time.
The yellow sand that had wrapped around the golden staff began to melt away.
The last bit of flame then surged into the skies.
All the spectators were dumbfounded by this result.
The golden rod, having lost its spirituality, fell to the ground, creating a huge hole below.
In the sky above, brilliant and radiant light eradicated all darkness. A domineering divine ring flew straight towards Li Changfeng. Right before it struck him, it suddenly exploded like a fireworks show.
Blinding light broke out, but Li Changfeng did not care about the pain in his eyes. He stared at the slender figure floating in the air in disbelief and revealed a smile of admiration.
Although he still had some tricks up his sleeve, there was no need for him to use them anymore. The strength of his opponent was undeniable.
It was a blessing for the Dragon's Fang Guardians to welcome such a genius.
