Absolute Resonance-Chapter 1515: Mirror Knight Incense
When the primal chaos was created, there was no life. This continued to be the case for a period of time before light was finally born within the chaos. A huge figure walked out of the light. It had twelve wings, each capable of being wielded as a sword. As sword energy danced around the figure, the light split the chaos apart. Then the entire world came alive.
As the primal chaos dissipated, the Twelve Winged Seraphim's dancing motions transformed into a torrent of information that imprinted itself within the depths of his heart.
"Is this the way to cultivate the Light Transcendent Art?"
The sword dancing stances of the Twelve Winged Seraphim were injected into Li Luo's mind. Every flicker of sword energy was capable of mobilizing the boundless amounts of light energy within worldly natural energy. As each form fluidly connected to each other, they even seemed capable of moving the stars with their profound and unfathomable mysteries. However, he soon found that the images were turning blurry and it became increasingly difficult to understand and comprehend them. He knew that as his light resonant power dissipated and without the aid of the upper ninth-grade light resonance, he would be unable to learn the Light Transcendent Art.
Furthermore, it specialized only in one element and he was only able to gain the right to come into contact with it because of the remnant upper ninth-grade light resonance power. That was why the Twelve Winged Seraphim's Sword Dance was bamboozled and had thought that he was an ideal successor. Additionally, Jiang Qing'e had not truly competed against him for the recognition of the Transcendent Art. All she would've had to do was hold on for a while, until the remnant amounts of light resonant power dissipated from his body. At that point, she wouldn't have needed to take action and the Light Transcendent Art would have left him without a second thought. She could then monopolize it.
"Letting me obtain the art was too much of a waste." Li Luo felt helpless. He couldn't maintain the state of having an upper ninth-grade light resonance, and although he had the Absolute Resonance Seed, it placed a huge burden on him. Most importantly, it consumed his blood essence. The only reason he was able to use it was due to a combination of the Dragon Blood Atavism Art bolstering his body and Li Hongyou's Three Transformation Jade Dragon Pill. In fact, the effects of the pill had already worn off.
At this moment, a cold and delicate hand slid into his palm, and their fingers interlaced. After which, the faded Twelve Winged Seraphim's Sword Dance started to reappear in his mind.
When he turned his head, he saw Jiang Qing'e beside him. Her enchanting, golden eyes contained a look of amusement as she looked back at him.
"The two of us can share in the Transcendent Glamor of the Twelve Winged Seraphim's Sword Dance. As we are of one mind and body, we can naturally share our understanding with each other," she explained.

Li Luo smiled bitterly. "This feels like a situation where the worst student in class is forced to study with the best student."
Jiang Qing'e shook her head and replied attentively, "Don't belittle yourself. A Transcendent Art is indeed extremely profound, so much so that even I may be unable to fully cultivate it. Thus, I will need your help to break through any bottlenecks."
Li Luo understood what she was getting at. "Are you saying that I should briefly fuse my resonances to make an upper ninth-grade light resonance when necessary?"
"Normally speaking, I'll work hard on my own to comprehend it. However, during critical moments, I'll need you to step in. After all, whose fault is it that I wasn't born with an upper ninth-grade?" Jiang Qing'e said with a smile.
Only then did Li Luo feel satisfied. He wasn't as useless as he had thought! Otherwise, if he were to constantly spend time with Jiang Qing'e and attempted to comprehend the Light Transcendent Art, he could very end up dragging her down. That wasn't something he was willing to do.
Additionally, in this way, the two would truly connect with each other and would be able to speed up each other's cultivation. This was basically cheating!
However, ordinary people couldn't do this. After all, just how many individuals who possessed such a special relationship could even come into contact with a Transcendent Art?
As Li Luo grasped Jiang Qing'e's slender hand harder and harder, his heart was filled with warmth.
Meanwhile, Diwu Mingxuan was still in the temple, looking at the two lovebirds who were in their own world with a fantastical expression. It would've been fine if Jiang Qing'e had obtained the Light Transcendent Art, but how had Li Luo gotten mixed in as well? What was going on? Li Luo had six different resonances, so how had he managed to gain the approval of the Transcendent Art? Was it because of his secondary light resonance? If one were to put it nicely, it was considered a helpful auxiliary resonance... But in truth, wasn't it just worthless window dressing? What could it even be used for? He had no idea that Li Luo could fuse all of his resonances into an upper ninth-grade and thus, he felt that this entire thing was the world going insane.
Even so, he knew that he couldn't change the situation anymore. The Light Transcendent Art had already made its choice, so no matter what he did, he wouldn't be able to obtain it.
Meanwhile, the Transcendent Art's Transcendent Glamor had already been absorbed by Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e, completing the transfer of its legacy.
Without Transcendent Glamor, they couldn't transmit the art themselves.
Diwu Mingxuan's expression fluctuated wildly before turning into one filled with depression and bitterness. He had no other opportunity here. Li Luo had beaten Song Jing, and if the duo were to join hands against him, there would be no chance of victory. The ship had sailed.
Thus, he slowly turned to leave. Diwu Mingxuan understood that if the results of this trial were to be publicized, his moniker of the Duke of Light would be stripped away. After all, there was someone more deserving of it.
The True Duke of Light, Jiang Qing'e.
Li Luo watched Diwu Mingxuan walk away and didn't stop him. However. he quickly asked Jiang Qing'e. "Are there any other opportunities here?"
Jiang Qing'e nodded and then made her way to the back of the temple. The place was barren, with only a single stone platform. On it was an incense burner containing a long stick of purple incense that emanated an indescribable fragrance.
"If I'm not wrong, this stick of purple incense is known as Mirror Knight Incense," Jiang Qing'e explained.
"Mirror Knight Incense?" Li Luo paused before suddenly understanding something, then he exclaimed, "Is this related to the Celestial Mirror Knights!?"
"Yes. Whoever ignites this stick of incense will be given the right to become a Celestial Mirror Knight. At the end of the trial, they will truly be given the title," Jiang Qing'e replied.
"What's the point of that?" Li Luo asked curiously.
"To you, this might not mean anything. However, the Celestial Mirror Knights are informally known to be the Academic Federation's reserve principals. Once their strength has reached a certain level, they can be chosen to be the principal of a sage college. They can also choose to enter the Academic Federation directly. Once they reach the King Stage, they become elders. Of course, there is one more advantage: the Academic Federation will provide these individuals with large amounts of cultivation resources."
Li Luo's interest waned upon hearing this. He had no intention of deepening his relationship with the Academic Federation and thus had no interest in becoming a principal either.
"I guess you should light it, then," Li Luo said.
"You should do it. Whoever lights the incense is also given an opportunity to discover a treasure. You can request anything within the Celestial Mirror Pagoda, with Transcendent Arts being the only exception."
When Li Luo heard this, he suddenly understood and his eyes lit up. "Are you saying I can request the Greater Acquired Resonance Godly Forging Art? Can that work?"
Jiang Qing'e shook her head. "I don't know. Why don't we give it a try?"
After obtaining the Twelve Winged Seraphim's Sword Dance, she had achieved her goal in the Celestial Mirror Pagoda and didn't have any more wants.
However, Li Luo had not. He nodded and then stretched his fingers out, circulating his resonant power, and touched the stick of incense.
The stick of incense immediately lit up, causing purple smoke to waft into the air.
As he observed the mysterious purple smoke, he placed his hands together and prayed earnestly.
"I want the Greater Acquired Resonance Godly Forging Art!"
