Chapter 1380: Destroying His Bergfried

Severing one's own Duke Bergfried was a desperate measure that was not considered to be too rare amongst Dukes. Whenever a Duke Bergfried was destroyed, it would generate a massive influx of energy that would far exceed one's own level. However, a Duke Bergfried was the culmination of one's potential and foundation. Many Dukes had spent immense amounts of sweat and blood just to forge one. Just how difficult would it be to reforge it again? Thus, sDukes would choose to die rather than do such a thing.

Jiang Qing'e had not expected that Li Luo would be this decisive. After all, it was a Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried!

Countless geniuses and talents sought them as the pinnacles of achievement. Countless opportunities and resources were used to create them, so who in their right mind would be willing to destroy their own Bergfried?

However... Jiang Qing'e's heart trembled. Li Luo had chosen to destroy the second Duke Bergfried, which was flawed to begin with. She had originally thought that he had acted too hastily. Now that she looked at it, it was clear this was all part of his plan. Perhaps during his breakthrough in the onyx cauldron, Li Luo had already foresaw the dire situation they would be trapped in. Thus, he had consciously opted to forcefully construct the second Duke Bergfried. The second Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried was never intended to be kept forever—he had planned to catalyze its destruction to escape from the situation!

The determination that Li Luo was demonstrating was simply praiseworthy, especially considering it was a Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried. Jiang Qing'e looked him up and down. Without her realization, the youth with blank palaces in the City of Southwind had transformed into someone who possessed exceptional charm and courage.

A hint of gratitude welled up in her heart. The Archaic Runes on her forehead began to glow ever more brightly and the two Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds above her began to emit an even mightier sacred aura, blocking off the karmic flames.

With Li Luo's Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried shattering, a burst of boundless energy surged outwards. The energy was violent and directly smashed the void apart, creating numerous rifts. Li Luo felt his insides churn. The act of destroying his own Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried had critically harmed his body. The only upside was that his second Duke Bergfried had not been perfectly formed and thus was not perfectly synchronized with his body. Otherwise, the backlash might have been unbearable.

He forcefully resisted the pain surging through his body as his hands formed a seal. The first Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried began to emit incredible devouring strength as it absorbed all of the energy resulting from the destruction of the other.

Their energies cfrom the ssource and thus, it was very easily absorbed.

The only uncertainty was that the amount was simply too massive. Li Luo's first Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried began to expand in size, and in the end, it stood tall like a giant mountain bridging the heavens and the earth.

“Argh!”

At this point Li Luo let out a pained cry. His dragonoid form was beginning to break apart as the humongous amount of almost berserk energy had filled his body.

Even with the aid of Transforming Dragon and the Heavenly Dragon True Body, he was unable to contain all of it! It was a testament to just how terrifying the amount of energy was.

Li Luo's violet-golden dragon scales began to show signs of breaking apart, and even his flesh and blood were showing signs of melting down, causing him to look extremely miserable. As twent on, even his bones began to show signs of fracturing and cracking.

He clenched his teeth, and a golden light spilled out from within his bones. It bathed his bones with a gilded coloration and engraved them with draconic runes.

This was the Coiling Dragon Golden Bone Pill, something Jiang Qing'e had given Li Luo stago! It was capable of protecting his life, and he had been saving it all this time. It had the power to assist him with strengthening his bones and to withstand the violent amounts of energy within him.

However, it clearly wasn't enough.

Even though his Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried had already absorbed a monstrous amount of the energy, his body was unable to handle the strain. It almost felt as though his body was about to burst at the seams and explode.

The fact that Li Luo was now literally bursting with frightening amounts of energy did not go unnoticed by Qin Lian. Her black, vortex-like eyes swept towards him, and she let out a venomous cackle. "What an idiot, you're actually willing to destroy your own Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried? All this for the sake of pitting your life against mine? It is a little bloody, but did you actually think things through? Can you even withstand the sheer amount of energy from wrecking your own Bergfried? I bet I won't even have to lay a finger on you—you'll just be destroyed by your own rebound force."

Although she had taken the tto mock him, Qin Lian took the initiative to cause even more karmic fire to descend towards him, clearly not planning to sit around and give Li Luo a chance to turn the tables.

When Jiang Qing'e saw this, she heaved deeply and her eyes turned incredibly cold.

Li Luo was fighting with his life on the line, and she had to do the sas well, fighting for every second she could for him.

Her Archaic Runes blazed and transformed into a miraculous sacred flame. It was frightening as it relied on consuming one's resonance as fuel. If it were to be utilized for too long, her resonance could end up falling by a grade. Since Li Luo had chosen to destroy his own Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried, so what if she chose to sacrifice one of her ninth-grade light resonances?

After all, they were stuck in an incredibly desperate situation. Even Shen Jinxiao's ambush had not felt as oppressive as this. Boundless amounts of light resonant power flowed out of her as the holy flburned, forcefully halting the descent of the karmic flames.

Meanwhile, the Archaic Runes on Jiang Qing'e's forehead began to dim.

Whilst Jiang Qing'e did her best to buy more time, the black snake that was wrapped around Li Luo's wrist began to transform into an inky-black substance that fused into his body, enveloping his golden bones.

The auric radiance then dimmed significantly.

This temporary relief allowed Li Luo to take a brief breather.

Unfortunately, this was still not enough. "Li Luo, lethelp you!"

At this point, a cry rang out. Li Hongyou was rushing over, and all her resonant power surged outwards, causing a wonderful fragrance to fill the air. A single Nine-Pillar Duke Bergfried floated above her.

This Duke Bergfried radiated with glorious light as a crimson fruit appeared. The fruit swayed within the light, and a dense fragrance permeated the air.

Roar!

Behind the crimson fruit was a slender dragon. The dragon looked like it was made of jade and gave off a sense of elegance along with a medicinal aroma. This was her Pharmacist Jade Dragon resonance.

Then Li Hongyou lightly bit the tip of her tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood essence. The dragon then gave a long roar and spewed out azure energy that fused with the crimson fruit's energy and integrated with the blood essence. The three energies combined to form a single spirit pill. On it were three draconic runes that seemed to be inactivated.

The appearance of the spirit pill filled the entire world with a dense fragrance.

Li Hongyou's face immediately turned pale. The azure spirit pill was none other than the special ability of the Pharmacist Jade Dragon resonance, the Jade Dragon Pill! If it possessed Nine Transformations, it would be unparalleled, capable of preventing one's body from being destroyed. However, she was only capable of creating a Three Transformations one at this moment.

Furthermore, this wasn't a true Jade Dragon Pill either. It possessed most of its effects, but they were only temporary. They would wear off once the medicinal strength ran out.

That said, it was still a miraculous treasure and was capable of reversing the situation.

"Go!" Li Hongyou shouted as the Jade Dragon Pill shot outwards, directly landing on Li Luo's broken-down body. Azure light filled the air around him, and wherever the light touched, the collapse of the body halted.

With Li Lingjing and Li Hongyou's support, Li Luo was able to bring the terrifying amount of energy resulting from the destruction of his Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfried under his control.

Li Luo's gaze was filled with bright light as he tightly grasped the Dragon Elephant Blade. The incredible power rushing through him caused even his blade to whine as it could barely resist the stress.

"Sister Qing'e, Cousin Lingjing, Senior Hongyou... Thank you.

"Now, Qin Lian, it's tforto end you!"
