Absolute Resonance Chapter 1418: One Vs Four

Chapter 1418: One Vs Four

The two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds shone incandescently above Li Luo's head. Vast amounts of resonant power surged out of him like a tide, bringing about a frightening pressure. The crowd was dazed by the sight. These were two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds! It looked like Li Luo had managed to cultivate a new Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried during his seclusion!

This also meant that he was a second-grade Transcendent now! It was no wonder he dared to brazenly declare that all five treasures would be his. A Transcendent was capable of defeating an opponent three grades higher, and that meant that Li Luo's personal strength had already reached the Fifth Duke Stage at the minimum. He was no weaker than the other four.

"Guardian General Li Luo is mighty! Guardian General Li Luo is invincible!" The Dragon's Fang Guardians erupted into cheers with faces that had turned red from shouting. They were clearly moved by the sight, seeing as how their shouts filled the skies.

Li Foluo looked dazed as he stared at the two perfect Duke Bergfrieds. He couldn't help but to mutter enviously and in admiration, "This fellow truly possesses awesome amounts of talent and potential."

He had been at the Duke Stage for many years, so he knew exactly how hard it was to forge a Duke Bergfried. Forging a seven or eight-pillar Duke Bergfried was an exceptional achievement for an ordinary person. Nine pillars allowed them to stand heads and shoulders above their peers, a hero of their generation.

He had five Duke Bergfrieds, and the best one was just an eight-pillar. It was precisely because he had experienced the difficulty of forging one that he was even more shocked and amazed after seeing Li Luo's result after half a year, that he had managed to recover his destroyed second Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried.

Luo Jiang nodded and smiled. "Ex Guardian General, it looks like the Dragon's Fang Guardians may achieve unprecedented new heights today."

The atmosphere amongst the Dragon's Fang Guardians was overflowing with excitement. Meanwhile, the members from the other four armies had complicated expressions. The strength Li Luo had demonstrated was worthy of their respect, but this also meant that their respective Guardian Generals were feeling a lot of pressure.

Whilst the outside of the battlefield was buzzing with commotion, Li Zhihuo, Li Tingyue, and the other two Guardian Generals had serious expressions. The fear that was contained within their eyes had reached its peak.

Li Tingyue sighed lightly before she said, "Who would have imagined that the Guardian General would manage to re-attain his peak strength in just half a year. This is worthy of celebration and is gratifying to hear."

Li Jushen and Li Boyuan clasped their hands respectfully. This was the respect shown for a Duke who had embarked on the Path of Ascension. After all, perfection was the only option on that path. They were truly in awe at any Duke who had the will to forge ahead relentlessly.

Li Zhihuo took a deep breath. Li Luo had come prepared, and it wasn't surprising that he planned to collect all the Mythic Armaments. That said, Li Zhihuo felt a little lucky in his heart. It was fortunate that Li Luo had chosen to challenge all four Guardian Generals for the greatest possible achievement. Otherwise, if he were to challenge him alone, he would be under immense pressure to win even with the Light and Dark Spear and the Hundred Battles Platemail.

He couldn't help it. After all, the image of Li Luo taking down Qin Lian in the Treasure Domain had left a deep shadow in his heart.

"Guardian General Li Luo, even though you've regained your strength, there is no way we will give these Mythic Armaments up easily," Li Zhihuo said in a grim tone as he tightly gripped the Light and Dark Spear.

The other three Guardian Generals nodded in agreement. Their expressions were respectful as the Mythic Armaments in their hands emanated strong resonant power fluctuations. As Guardian Generals, they had a duty to protect the honor of their armies.

No matter how strong Li Luo was, they could not give up easily.

Furthermore, Li Luo had no Heavenly Dragon Mythic Armament of his own, which was his biggest disadvantage. These were weapons that even high-grade Dukes were willing to wield. With the aid of these Mythic Armaments, Li Tingyue and the rest as lower fifth-grade Dukes could challenge upper fifth-grades. Li Zhihuo was even more impressive, with the perfect combination of a defensive and an offensive Mythic Armament; he had no flaws, so even certain sixth-grade Dukes would choose to avoid fighting him head-on.

Thus, just Li Luo’s cultivation alone wasn’t guaranteed to be enough!

Li Luo glanced at the four, whose eyes were burning with fighting spirit, and smirked. The two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds above him began to emit a brilliant light, then a terrifying suction force swept outwards and devoured worldly natural energy at an incredible rate. řâNŐ?Ęș

Li Zhihuo and the rest similarly roused their own Duke Bergfrieds in an attempt to wrestle control of the worldly natural energy.

However, they were shocked to find out that the amounts they were able to absorb were miniscule when compared to what Li Luo had taken in! They clearly had far more Duke Bergfrieds, but they were at a disadvantage.

The four of them had twenty Duke Bergfrieds between them, and yet they were unable to compare with Li Luo, who only had two. Was the Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried simply that tyrannical?

Li Luo, however, wasn't surprised in the least. This wasn't just because of his Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds, but also the fact that after the Absolute Resonance Seed had awakened, he was able to sense that he was in harmony with the vast amounts of energy in the world. In the past, he was only capable of absorbing energy that was of his own resonant affinities, but now all of it could be taken in. Any sort of energy could be synthesized by the Absolute Resonance Halo. Li Luo took a step forward, and the world filled with shrill sword hymns. Boundless amounts of sword light covered the skies and very swiftly took the form of an archaic sword formation. Upon completion, it gave off a terrifying aura.

The expressions of all of the Dukes present changed. Even some high-grade Dukes were taken aback.

Just what sort of Duke Art was this? Outsiders would not know, but Li Zhihuo, Li Tingyue, and the rest had seen this before, and their expressions fell and their scalps turned numb.

"The Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation!"

"Stop him! Don't let him complete it!" Li Zhihuo shouted. They had seen for themselves how domineering and mighty this sword formation was. If they let it reach its complete form, the Obliteration Sword Light would truly threaten them. Li Luo was truly vicious, immediately starting off with a bang! He clearly wanted to bring a swift and decisive end to this battle.

That said, the other three didn't need to be told. Resonant power poured into their Mythic Armaments without hesitation. At the same time, a heaven-shaking shockwave erupted and attracted the attention of the crowd.

Li Tingyue's Ten Thousand Scale Mirror flowed with mysterious light and all of the scales on it began to flash. Huge amounts of light condensed in one point before shooting out in an awe-inspiring beam of light that pierced through the sky.

"Ten Thousand Scales Mysterious Tail!"

The light took the form of a gigantic dragon that soared through the skies.

Li Jushen roared, and his burly body began to rapidly expand. The Golden Bone Hammer in his hand similarly grew in size until he resembled a giant, heavily smashing the hammer downwards.

"s.p.a.ce Shattering G.o.dly Smash!"

Bang!

A large part of the void immediately shattered and an annihilative power enveloped the spatial fragments, blasting towards the yet to be fully formed sword formation with a destructive force.

Li Boyuan then activated the ancient golden Clarion Horn, which emitted the roar of a dragon, transforming into a visible shockwave of sound that was imbued with golden light as it swept outwards.

"Heavenly Dragon Howl!"

The sound waves contained the ability to shatter one's soul, and even the Dukes who were watching felt fear rise within their hearts.

Three of them had activated their strongest moves without restraint.

Li Zhihuo similarly stepped into the skies and hacked downwards with the impeccably sharp Light and Dark Spear. The firmament seemed to have been split in half as the spear descended. The fierce fluctuations that emanated from this blow caused even sixth-grade Dukes to feel a little startled.

Bang!

Their moves struck like a bolt of lightning as they targeted the incomplete sword formation.

Meanwhile, boundless amounts of sword energy roared towards their attacks in response.

Boom!

Alas, the sword formation had not been completed and the sword energy that clashed against the four's attacks only lasted for a moment before collapsing. The remaining energy of the attacks then flooded the sword formation, destroying it.

The tempest created from the explosion of sword energy swept out in every direction, riddling the battle platform with deep gouges.

Destroying the formation brought great joy to the four.

Their gazes then turned towards Li Luo, but they were shocked at his response. There wasn't the slightest trace of dejection on his face, but a smile instead. Before they could react, incredible amounts of violet-gold light shone from Li Luo's body. It was so bright that even Li Zhihuo and the rest were temporarily blinded.

They could then faintly sense an overwhelming pressure that caused them to tremble from the depths of their souls, even reaching their blood. This pressure unfurled across the skies.

"Something’s wrong!"

"The sword formation was just bait!"

Li Zhihuo's eyes shrunk. He suddenly remembered that half a year ago, Li Luo had taken away a high-grade Destiny-grade Duke Art from the Heavenly Dragon Treasury. He yelled, "Hurry and stop him! He plans to activate the Dragon Blood Atavism Art!"

When Li Tingyue and the other three heard him, their eyes were full of disbelief. The Dragon Blood Atavism Art was an upper Destiny-grade Duke Art, and even within the Dragon's Blood Lineage, there were few who could even cultivate it successfully. Could it be that Li Luo had managed to cultivate it in just half a year?

Bang!

Despite being frightened by the prospect of facing that fearful Duke Art, their actions were not tardy. The Duke Bergfrieds above them began to rumble and energy poured in. A moment later, even more ferocious attacks shot out of their Mythic Armaments.

It was like four calamitous powers had descended, attempting to rip through the veil of violet-gold light.

However, in the face of the four's all-out a.s.sault, a gigantic violet-gold dragon talon stretched out of the light. Ancient runes were engraved on the talon and it radiated a primal draconic might, directly colliding against the frenetic a.s.sault. Bang!

The void collapsed and a terrifying energy shockwave resulted from the clash, blasting the battle platform to pieces.

The counterattack of the four with the aid of their high-grade Mythic Armaments had been resisted by a single talon.

The crowd gasped. Li Zhihuo and the rest were standing in the air with trembling eyes, looking towards the violet-gold light. When the light dissipated, they could see a gigantic creature tens of thousands of feet long, giving off a pressure that could suppress their very bloodline.

At this point, all of the experts from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li stood up in shock.

A voice broke the silence.

"He... he's cultivated the Dragon Blood Atavism Art!"

A t.i.tanic Heavenly Dragon floated domineeringly in the shattered void.
