Chapter 0925: Heavenly Dragon"s Sunchaser Bow
The sheer energy undulations radiating from each of the three orbs of light demonstrated how uncommon these artifacts were.
He flicked his finger, and the first orb flew to Li Jingtao. When light covering the artifact dissipated, a mottled turtle sh.e.l.l was revealed. It was the size of one"s palm and seemed to be shaped like a shield. There were cracks all over the artifact, and it seemed a little fragile.
Li Luo"s gaze was instead focused upon the center of the turtle sh.e.l.l, where a violet mark that resembled a violet eye could be seen.
A violet-eye treasured artifact.
However, there was something a little different about it. There wasn"t just one violet eye, there were two!
Twin violet-eye!
Ever since he had entered the humongous inner divine continent, his own horizons had been expanded and he had gained an understanding of twin violet-eye treasured artifacts.
They were of a higher grade when compared to normal violet-eye treasured artifacts. Worldly natural energy would be fused into the artifact during the process of refinement, and only through an intense and perfect process of infusion would a violet-eye mark be formed.
However, within the category of violet-eye treasured artifacts, the twin-eye mark was not the highest. It was said that the peak of these artifacts was the triple-eye grade.
Triple-eye treasured artifacts were wielded by Dukes. These artifacts truly possessed sky-burning and ocean-boiling might, being treasures that Dukes relied upon. As a result, this twin violet-eye turtle shield was extremely valuable. If it were placed in the Xia Kingdom, it would be a peerless artifact.
This was especially so for those beneath the Duke Stage. Having a single twin violet-eye treasured artifact would allow their battle strength to soar. "This is the Ancient Turtle Armored Shield. As you can see, it"s a twin violet-eye treasured artifact. When fully refined, it can summon the manifestation of an Ancient Turtle. It gives one the ability to form an una.s.sailable defense, and since you favor defense, this is suitable for you." Li Jingzhe waved his hand, and the mottled turtle sh.e.l.l flew into Li Jingtao’s hand.
Li Jingtao hurriedly accepted the gift and jubilantly thanked the Respected Elder profusely.
It was as Li Jingzhe had said, this treasured artifact was one that suited his heart. In the past, he had searched for defensive treasured artifacts himself, but none had ever come close to the level of this twin violet-eye treasured artifact.
Li Jingzhe then directed another orb of light towards Li Fengyi. Within it was a fiery-red fan, with a bright, yellow flame arising from it. The flame was of a high temperature, and the smell of burning air wafted through their noses.
Additionally, two violet-eye marks could be seen on the handle of the fan as well.
"This is the Conflagration Feathered Fan, able to summon heavenly flames that are extremely tyrannical and not far from a Duke Art."
Li Fengyi received the feathered fan and curiously flapped it twice. When she did so, a crimson flame winked into existence, almost starting a wildfire and causing the skies and clouds to turn red.
The ferocious fire had appeared in the blink of an eye, and even she was frightened by the sight. Li Jingzhe, on the other hand, merely waved his sleeve to get rid of the flames, making them vanish without a trace.
Li Fengyi stuck out her tongue sheepishly as she put the feathered fan away. "Thank you, Grandpa."
Li Luo sighed in his heart. The might of a twin violet-eye treasured artifact could not be underestimated. Such artifacts were no weaker than Duke Arts, and they were rarely seen even in the inner divine continent. Normal powers could not bear to give such objects away as a reward. In fact, the highest grade treasured artifact he possessed was the Violet Resonant Tree Brooch. The Golden-Jade Onyx-Elephant Blade he most often used was only a gold-eye treasured artifact, but its strength lay within the Divine Elephant Power. The weapon itself contained a kingmark, and Li Luo possessed an extremely mighty life-saving technique thanks to it. The only flaw was that the kingmark could not be replenished and would gradually dissipate once used. As a result, Li Luo was reluctant to utilize it unless necessary.
With that in mind, he glanced at Li Jingzhe with eyes full of antic.i.p.ation.
Twin violet-eye treasured artifacts were things he had never even heard of in the Xia Kingdom! In the Dragon"s Fang Lineage, one would have to make unimaginably immense contributions if they wanted to trade for such treasured artifacts. It was said that there were many who had gone on from the Twenty Banners into the Dragon"s Fang Guardians, taking up positions of high responsibility, and yet they still had not contributed enough to obtain one!
When faced with his expectant gaze, Li Jingzhe grinned when the last orb of light flew toward Li Luo, and a large bow that looked like white jade emerged.
The bow"s body was engraved with countless runic lines that seemed to intertwine and form a gigantic, winding dragon. The two ends of the bow were shaped like the maws of a dragon, and strands of air flowed between them, forming something resembling a bowstring.
When the bow appeared, worldly natural energy around them was riled up and was constantly swallowed by the bow.
Li Luo"s gaze was focused upon the bow without blinking, continuously inspecting it from head to toe. In the end, his eyes paused on a specific area where two violet-eye marks could be seen radiating brilliantly with mysterious light.
This was similarly a twin violet-eye treasured artifact.
Oh? Wait, that was wrong!
When he closely inspected the bow, he noticed that there was an indistinct third violet mark! Although it was faint, this treasured artifact truly had three violet marks!
Li Luo"s gaze shrunk as he asked in shock, "A triple violet-eye treasured artifact?"
This was a treasured artifact that was just one step below the artifacts that Dukes used! It was an artifact capable of slaughtering anyone below the Duke Stage.
Li Jingzhe gave a wry smile. "Now that you"ve become the Dragon"s Head and contributed so much to the Dragon"s Fang Lineage, I might incur the ridicule of others if I can"t even give you a triple violet-eye treasured artifact."
Li Jingtao and Li Fengyi both nodded, expressing their agreement. If not for Li Luo"s great performance, the rewards obtained by the four banners would not have been so plentiful, and neither would they have obtained these twin violet-eye treasured artifacts.
"You once mentioned that you are quite good at archery, just that you never had the right bow. Now that you"ve done so much, this should satisfy you. This is known as the Heavenly Dragon"s Sunchaser Bow. It was crafted with the bones of a dragon and numerous other high-grade materials. It"s renowned for being extremely powerful, which is why it"s known as the Sunchaser Bow. However, not everyone can utilize this bow, as it requires huge amounts of resonant power and also the support of Heavenly Dragon Energy. This bow would not have been usable for you in the past. Now that you"ve obtained the Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon"s Body, you barely meet its requirements. That being said, you will likely only be able to shoot a single arrow for now," Li Jingzhe explained. Li Luo clicked his tongue secretly. The fact that he could only shoot a single arrow implied that the Heavenly Dragon"s Sunchaser Bow had extremely harsh requirements.
Triple violet-eye treasured artifacts seemed to have extremely terrifying requirements.
That being said, he happily accepted the artifact, unable to put it down as he continued to inspect the bow. This was something he could simply not afford to buy in the past!
"I have also prepared something for Deng Fengxian. Give it to him later," Li Jingzhe continued. The three nodded.
Li Luo continued to fiddle with the bow for a while more before reluctantly setting it aside. With this devastating tool in hand, he could retire his basically ruined Lambent Hawkeye.
"Grandpa, considering that you suddenly gave us these treasured artifacts, do you require something of us?" Li Luo suddenly asked.
Li Jingzhe shot him a glance, and a smile surfaced on his elderly face. "You little brat, you"re quite sharp. All you have done up till now was compete within the five lineages’ internal compet.i.tions, so you naturally had no need to borrow the aid of treasured artifacts. However, what lies ahead are battles against the other powers in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. Treasured artifacts are a form of strength, and I will not leave you disadvantaged. These external battles will not be as moderated as those you have gone through until now. Deaths are common."
Li Luo"s eyes jumped. "Battling against the other geniuses of the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent?"
He fell silent for a few breaths of time before raising his head.
"Grandpa, are you referring to the Spiritual Resonance Cave?"
