Absolute Resonance-Chapter 1142: Pinnacle of the Heavenly Pearl Stage
Chapter 1142: Pinnacle of the Heavenly Pearl Stage
Resonant power and corruption raged wildly in the sky as the fierce battle broke out outside the pool of blood. One after another, majestic Heavenly Resonance Diagrams extended across the sky, absorbing the worldly natural energy and transforming it into beams of resonant power that rained back down like divine judgment. Feng Lingyuan, Wang Kong, Yue Zhiyu, Duan Mu and Wei Chonglou were the main force from the two Ancient Colleges. As the strongest line of defense from the students side, they each confronted two or more Greater Evil Spirits. Magnificent Duke Arts were launched consecutively at their opponents.
Meanwhile, the other students tried their best to handle the Evil Spirits and the Others transformed from their schoolmates' skins.
The fight escalated fiercely right off the bat. As the Others were being eliminated, some of the students lost their lives too.
This could not be helped. After all, it was a life and death battle here. It wasn't the warm and protected training ground back in their schools. Expecting these heartless Others to stop when it's enough would be ridiculous.
Everyone pushed their resonant power to its extreme. Their veins stung from the heavy collisions and their eyes turned bloodshot. Yet, none of them dared to stop for a single second. They continued to charge towards these Others and killed as many as they could.
Zong Sha, Jiang Wanyu and Lu Jinci were fighting together. Amongst them, Jiang Wanyu was the weakest. She had managed to reach the five-pearl stage with the help of the Heavenly Crimson Pills earlier. However, this was barely sufficient in a crazy battlefield like this. If not for the help of Zong Sha and the others, she would have been ambushed by the Others multiple times.
This was a truly risky mission. Heavenly Pearls like them could only hope to keep themselves safe. freew ebnovel.com
After all, not every Heavenly Pearl was as monstrous as Li Luo.
Zong Sha held firmly onto his spear. A Heavenly Resonance GoldenSeal appeared above his head. Golden beams of light shot out from his gold seal and the Others surrounding him swiftly retreated. Only one of the Evil Spirits endured the strike from the golden beam and continued charging towards him.
For a moment, the spear in Zong Sha's hands flashed like a bright light. It stabbed directly towards the Evil Spirit.
Dang!
It was like the sound of metal being struck. Zong Sha took a few steps back, trembling from the impact. The Evil Spirit was not any weaker compared to him. In fact, cracks had appeared in their line of defense as soon as he was pushed back. The other Evil Spirit charged forward in a strange and unusual pattern. A sharp ring echoed in the air. Its razor sharp claws surrounded with eerie cold corruption slashed directly at Jiang Wanyu behind him.
Zong Sha's face changed immediately. He tried to rush back to her aid but the Evil Spirit in front of him had dashed forward with another strike. Corruption surged and he was forced back into self defense.
Lu Jinci and Deng Zhu were slightly stronger but they were still at the seven-pearl stage. Their resonant power surged up and they confronted the incoming Evil Spirit.
Weng!
As the two sides clashed, the two of them were knocked back as fresh blood spewed out of their mouths. They were sent flying back directly, rolling on the ground almost defeated.
The corruption continued to swamp towards them. Countless strange whispers echoed in their minds as their gazes lost focus.
Seeing this, Jiang Wanyu gritted her teeth. Five radiant heavenly pearls materialized behind her, with a slight crack appearing on one of it.
She acted decisively. She knew that the gap in strength between her and the Evil Spirit was too great. As such, she had decided to sacrifice one of her Heavenly Pearl to buy some time for her comrades.
Weng!
Just as she made her decision, a domineering stream of blade energy flew across the void. A draconic roar echoed in the air as the blade energy sliced through the thick layers of corruption and directly decapitated the Evil Spirit.
Nonetheless, the headless Evil Spirit continued to charge forward. Resonant power surged up and a flash of light flew out of Jiang Wanyu's blade. The void was torn open and a fire dragon roared to life.
"Purgatory's Crimson Dragon Banner!"
The fire dragon bared its fangs and claws and directly clashed against the decapitated Evil Spirit. As it had been severely injured, its aura of corruption had weakened. The fire dragon was able to penetrate and incinerate it into nothingness.
Jiang Wanyu heaved a sigh of relief. She turned her head to see where the blade energy had come from. On the spot, it was Li Luo with his Dragon Elephant Blade. He stepped forward to confront the incoming Evil Spirit.
"Thank you." Jiang Wanyu said.
However, Li Luo did not respond. It was only at this moment that Jiang Wanyu noticed something was different about Li Luo. He seemed to be fully focused in this fierce fight. Most surprisingly, the waves of resonant power coming out of Li Luo was increasing at an alarming rate.
Jiang Wanyu's eyes turned towards the back of Li Luo. Behind him were already eight Heavenly Pearls!
"He's reached the eight-pearl stage?!" Jiang Wanyu was completely taken aback by this development. She could sense that the brilliant Heavenly Pearls behind him were created from his natural resonant power. It was not due to any external aid.
"Is he refining those Spirit Lotus Essence and Heavenly Crimson Pills he obtained earlier? Could it be..." "He's gunning for the nine-pearl stage now?!" Jiang Wanyu was filled with a mixed range of emotions as she looked at Li Luo in a daze. Back in the Spiritual Resonance Cave, Li Luo's resonant power wasn't even on par with hers. Yet, she was a five-pearl now but Li Luo was already aiming for the pinnacle of the stage!
The nine-pearl stage was a dream for nearly every elite. However, many had failed at the crucial step and only very few with extremely solid foundations and the right opportunities had managed to take the last step.
And right now, Li Luo was rushing towards it as his goal?
He was indeed ambitious.
Jiang Wanyu's heart stirred with complicated feelings. It was not like she had never seen someone reach the nine-pearl stage but it was extremely rare even in the Ancient College for anyone to reach this stage at the Three Star Hall level.
"Li Luo, I wish you all the best."
Jiang Wanyu looked at Li Luo, who was fully focused in the battle to draw out all of his latent potential. She knew that this was a critical juncture for his cultivation so she did not disturb him. She simply whispered her blessings to him.
At this moment, Li Luo had indeed shut out all external distractions. He held firmly onto his Dragon Elephant Blade and was only concerned about the incoming Others. His heart was completely calm. He could even sense every strand of resonant power flowing within his body. In his chest, the circulating blood in his body passed by the ball of light cultivated from the Spirit Lotus Essence and Heavenly Crimson Pills. The body continued to integrate this ball of light as ridiculous amounts of energy flooded into his muscles.
The eruption of this power was like a furious dragon's mighty roar.
The resonant power in his three resonant palaces were filled to the brim at this point.
In the Waterlight resonant palace, the crystal clear lake had expanded massively. Huge waves had kicked up in the lake and every droplet of water was dazzling brightly with light filled with divine energy.
In his Woodearth resonant palace, the roots of the giant tree continued to grow and extend. The entire palace was bursting with endless vitality.
In his Thunder Dragon resonant palace, lightning clouds filled the air. Deafening thunders boomed and within the clouds, a majestic dragon slowly flew by with lightning sparkling off its scales.
Even the mysterious Auric Halo in his body had begun to release faint hints of energy.
The Acquired Resonance Flame in the Auric Halo was beginning to grow.
Li Luo felt like he was bursting with energy at this moment. Everytime he waved the Dragon Elephant Blade in his hand, the deafening cries of the Dragon Elephant filled the air.
He could not be stopped by the Others in front of him, not even the Evil Spirit was able to resist a single blow of his.
A faint glow continued to grow brighter beside the eighth Heavenly Pearl on his back.
Energy gushed out of him to fill it up continuously.
Sssssh
Li Luo swept through the Others. He caught the attention of a strong looking Evil Spirit with a bloody red body. This Evil Spirit was comparable to a True Seal grade. From its body size and crimson red color, it was clearly one of those Others with the potential to advance into a Greater Evil Spirit. novelbuddy.(c)om
Two of the True Seal grade students had already been injured by it. There was also one of the Illusory Seal grade students who had his body completely mangled as fresh blood burst out of every orifice. The vicious "Evil" character on the Evil Spirit's face churned as if it was lapping up the fresh blood spilled in big mouthfuls.
Then, it let out a sharp cry. Its figure left behind afterimages as it charged directly towards Li Luo.
"Li Luo, be careful! It's coming for you!" The two True Seal grade students who were tasked to hold down this Evil Spirit shouted out. Their faces turned ugly as they tried to warn Li Luo.
At the same time, they dashed forward from their spots and attempted to stop it.
However, Li Luo did not retreat. He slowly lifted the Dragon Elephant Blade in his hand. His toes landed on the ground. His ankles bent and the ground cracked open.
His figure blasted forward as the energy in his body skyrocketed.
Simultaneously, the Heavenly Pearls behind his back rotated madly forming a sight that resembled a dazzling halo.
The three resonant palaces roared to life in tandem as violent sparks jumped wildly across his blade. The mark of dual resonance power also appeared as his blade slashed down and the void tore open.
Endless thunderclaps could be heard coming out from within. A huge dragon head slowly emerged. It was majestic and ferocious, with lightning flowing between its sharp fangs and claws.
This was the...
Heavenly Judgment's Silver Dragon Banner!
In his currently nearly perfect state, Li Luo had finally mastered this Duke Art. As he was at the edge of breaking through, it contained an immense amount of resonant power that far surpassed any previous times.
The Thunder Dragon and blade energy fused together. In the next moment, it clashed against the incoming Evil Spirit.
The shockwaves were so strong that some of the Greater Heavenly Resonance students nearby looked over in surprise.
Under their gazes, Li Luo directly confronted that elite Evil Spirit.
Weng!
The ground cracked open at their point of confrontation.
The wild energy shockwaves directly eradicated some of the Others nearby.
The elite Evil Spirit maintained its pace of charging forward. However, cracks filled with lightning energy emerged on its body after a dozen more steps. The lightning crackled once again and the body of the Evil Spirit exploded.
All the other students had their eyes widened in disbelief.
Zong Sha, Lu Jinci and the group took in a deep breath. That elite Evil Spirit that they couldn't take down together was slain by Li Luo in a single slash.
After staring in disbelief, Jiang Wanyu was the only one whose eyes turned into admiration.
In the next moment, she noticed that he placed his blade down. The brilliant heavenly pearls began to rotate wildly...
One pearl... three pearls... five pearls... eight pearls...
Jiang Wanyu's eyes paused at the spot beside the eighth heavenly pearl.
Over there, there was another glaring heavenly pearl. It quietly rotated.
This heavenly pearl was clearly many times stronger than the others.
Because... It was the ninth heavenly pearl.
The Pinnacle of the Heavenly Pearl stage, Nine Heavenly Pearls!
Li Luo had finally completed his breakthrough.
