Absolute Resonance Chapter 1378: Condensed Obliteration Sword Embryo! Karmic Fire Extinguishes!

Chapter 1378: Condensed Obliteration Sword Embryo! Karmic Fire Extinguishes!

The gigantic and archaic sword formation let out a ma.s.sive rumble. The sound waves resulting from that contained a trace of sword energy, leaving behind numerous rifts in the void as they traveled through the air.

Meanwhile, the ground below was being sliced up, with each sword scar looking as smooth as gla.s.s.

The vast amounts of sword energy merged into one body as it flooded outwards.

This sword energy was a chaotic blend of different colors, seemingly endless. As light flowed, it formed a vague and humongous sword manifestation.

It resembled some sort of developing sword embryo.

However, the sheer energy released by the blurry sword was capable of rending the heavens into two.

This was the Condensed Obliteration Sword Embryo! It was Li Luo's strongest trump card now at the Four Sword Realm. The Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation had reached the upper Destiny-grade at this point. Such a Duke Art would be considered a treasure shared by the entire bloodline amongst the four Heavenly Emperor bloodlines! No one had ever imagined that Li Luo still had something this lethal up his sleeve. Furthermore, such a Destiny-grade Duke Art would rarely be encountered even in the archives of the Heavenly Emperor lineages. And as for the ones that were available, few had the apt.i.tude to learn them.

Li Luo pushed his palm out amidst the shocked gazes. The blurry sword embryo seemed to be wrapped in waves of power that could completely annihilate everything in its wake as it flew through the air. At the same time, the figure of light above Jiang Qing'e struck at the same time, and both attacks collided with the black paG.o.da directly. In that moment of collision, everything seemed to have turned silent. s.p.a.ce and time seemed to have paused.

However, it was not that things had turned silent, but that the resulting explosion was so incredibly loud that it blotted out every other sound. When the raging energy undulations reached their peak, everyone's senses were blocked by their sheer power. They could only vaguely make out that three terrifying energies had smashed into each other in the air, just before a cataclysmic explosion capable of exterminating all life unfolded.

A giant black hole was ripped out of the firmament, and it began to suck in everything around it, crus.h.i.+ng everything to pieces like a humongous millstone. In the middle of that blackhole were the three Destiny-grade Duke Arts still clas.h.i.+ng and looking to erode away at each other.

Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e's Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds were working in overdrive, copiously devouring worldly natural energy and transforming into Divine Mist to further augment their attacks. This confrontation allowed them to clearly sense how devastating the nine-tiered paG.o.da was. It truly held apocalyptic power.

An eighth-grade Duke had poured all her strength into this Destiny-grade Duke Art and thus, it might have exceeded their expectations.

If it were Qin Beiming or Li Zhihuo facing off against her, they might barely have held on for a single breath before being pulverized. Meanwhile, Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e were able to use the combination of their Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds, their talent, and their strong teamwork to withstand Qin Lian's attack. If news of their achievement made it out of the Treasure Domain, it would undoubtedly send tremors throughout the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. Of course this is a.s.suming they could survive.

The cataclysmic clash continued to unfold in the void. The mere aftershocks were causing the Other Dominion to begin to show signs of collapse.

"Those freaks actually managed to block an eighth-grade Duke's Destiny-grade Duke Art?" Lu Shuanglu was completely taken aback.

"They haven't succeeded yet. That ma.s.sive paG.o.da is still crus.h.i.+ng down on them," Zhang Cuicheng commented.

"Of course, but just doing what they’re doing now is already frightening."

They were utilizing second-grade Duke strength to resist an eighth-grade! Even though they were Transcendent Dukes, the thought was simply too scary.

Not far away, Qin Beiming continued to stare unabated at the depths of the black hole. "The Nine-tiered Golden Rampart Karmic Flame PaG.o.da possesses the power of karmic flames. It is incredibly tyrannical and will gradually incinerate Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e's Destiny-grade Duke Arts. If they drag things out, the two of them will definitely lose! Although it looks like they've managed to hold Qin Lian down, we have to do something!"

Qin Beiming's gaze flickered as he looked at the blood-red flower bud. In the middle of the flower bud was the black lotus that was still emitting a giant pillar of red light, piercing through the Four Heavenly Emperor's Sealing Talisman in the sky.

"What are you thinking?" Li Zhihuo turned towards where he was facing.

Qin Beiming answered in a somber tone, "The opponent's goal is for the black lotus platform to bloom, allowing that monstrous existence to descend upon the World's End River Region. Even Li Jingzhe is being held back at this moment, and so if we wish to change the situation, we have to wreck that flower bud. Now that Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e are holding Hall Master Qin Lian back, it's our best opportunity to make a move."

Li Zhihuo fell silent for a moment before nodding in agreement. Truthfully, he had been cowed by Qin Lian, but he also realized that they were all stuck in the same predicament. If Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e were to fall, they would follow suit shortly. When Qin Beiming saw this, he flew up into the air and transmitted his voice into everyone's ears. "Everyone, if you wish to survive, you have to take this opportunity to destroy that devil flower!"

As his voice resounded, five Duke Bergfrieds floated up above him. Although they were much dimmer than before, his spirit had not waned in the least. He immediately rallied the rest to attack the flower bud. Qin Beiming's declaration had awakened many within the crowd. As they glanced at the flower bud not far away, their faces were filled with fear.

"If you don't act now, when Qin Lian finishes off Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e, all of us will be fed to those ravenous fangs and turned into mere nutrients!" Li Foluo roared as he activated his Duke Bergfrieds without hesitation and shot ahead. Li Tingyue, Li Boyuan, and the rest of the Dukes from the Heavenly Dragon’s Armies followed.

With them leading the charge, the rest of the experts were roused into action. At this moment, Qin Lian was still being bogged down by the duo. No one else had to face her directly, so the terror in their hearts subsided.

People shot out one after another, rus.h.i.+ng towards the flower bud.

The sudden counterattack by the experts attracted Qin Lian's attention. Her vortex-like eyes glanced over casually and a mocking smile formed on her face.

Glug, glug!

At this moment, the b.l.o.o.d.y maw on the petal suddenly spat out a torrent of blood. It was smelly, sticky, and contained countless pieces of chewed-up flesh and broken bones.

As the blood gushed out like a tide, a big, blood-red bell appeared in its mouth.

The bell shook and began to chime.

Dong!

When the gloomy ringing of the bell sounded out, everyone who heard it was affected and their gazes became vacant.

It was as though their minds were being muddled by the sounds of the bell.

Only Qin Beiming, Li Zhihuo, and those who were stronger were capable of resisting the bell's chimes.

They clenched their teeth as they raced towards the flower bud.

Very quickly, they were forced to stop in their tracks. Qin Beiming's expression was dark as he glanced at the b.l.o.o.d.y maw. He could see a pale hand that oozed fresh blood stretching out of it. It then grasped hold of one of the fangs and forcefully wrenched itself out of the flower bud.

A figure that Qin Beiming was familiar with emerged. Surprisingly, it was Zhao Xiuyuan, the one who had been thrown into the maws of the flower bud and been chewed up not too long ago. That said, Zhao Xiuyuan had eyes devoid of any spirit and it looked as though he had long lost his mind.

This was nothing more than an empty sh.e.l.l.

However, Qin Beiming's heart sank. This empty sh.e.l.l was oozing with corruption, and it seemed to be even stronger than the Zhao Xiuyuan of the past. He sucked in a deep breath. Their opponent clearly had all sorts of methods up their sleeves; even this backup precaution was capable of leaving people in despair.

That said, he had no other path available to him.

Qin Beiming tightly clutched his spear and bellowed loudly. He roused all of the resonant power and killing intent he could muster, infusing it into his strike as he dashed towards Zhao Xiuyuan.

Another b.l.o.o.d.y battle began to unfold.

Qin Lian never gave him a second look. Instead, her callous gaze was focused on the black hole in the air. The two sides were giving everything they had to destroy the other.

The bottom of the paG.o.da spewed out dark-red flames. Wherever the flames pa.s.sed, whether it was Li Luo's Condensed Obliteration Sword Embryo or Jiang Qing'e's G.o.ddess of Light, everything began to show signs of being burned into nothingness.

"So what if you reached the second-grade? Transcendent Dukes are nothing more than ants before absolute power!" Qin Lian scoffed shrilly. She then clasped her fingers together to make a seal before heavily smas.h.i.+ng her hands downwards.

Bang! The gigantic devilish paG.o.da suddenly pressed down with even greater force.

Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e's eyes shrunk and their hearts sank. Her move had caused the Condensed Obliteration Sword Embryo and the sword-wielding G.o.ddess of Light to show signs of shattering!
