Absolute Resonance Chapter 366 - In Synergy

Chapter 366: In Synergy

Lin Suo swayed on top of the tree, continuing to gather red plasma that flowed around him in swirls. He stared at Li Luo with a deadly fury, ready to wipe out the irritating opponent who had actually managed to make him panic for a moment.

He had felt true fear for a moment back then. All caused by three Pattern Genesis Tier n.o.bodies.

Lin Suo spat out a mouthful of frothy blood that he had been gurgling. Clapping his hands together with a thunderous crack, the swirling blood spread out into a mist that settled over his skin.

It slowly began to form a crimson silhouette that flickered like a body double.

“Tiger-general resonance art, Blood Buddha!”

The b.l.o.o.d.y silhouette clarified into an angry visage of blood.

Lin Suo’s aura blew up into a whole new level. Clearly this was his ultimate move.

Li Luo blanched a little, then he signaled to the other two to be careful. He himself retreated, drawing the Lambent Hawkeye as he went. A blast of energy flew forth in an arrow of light.

The light arrow moved with great speed, even faster than the waterlight arrow that had taken many an opponent by surprise with how fast it moved. This was the power boost that a treasured artifact like the Lambent Hawkeye brought him.

Even Lin Suo could barely track the movement of the attack. He was surprised by the speed, but not afraid. Speed without power was nothing. He tanked the light arrow with his b.l.o.o.d.y visage.

Pss.h.!.+

The light arrow melted away into the visage.

The gory power around Lin Suo churned as he turned, speeding towards Li Luo so quickly that he left afterimages behind him.

Li Luo ran for it. Lin Suo was in peak condition right now. He would be like a praying mantis trying to stop a wagon.

Lin Suo was fast, and he caught up to Li Luo in a matter of moments.

BOOM!

What felt like a tower of steel crashed into Lin Suo from the side, throwing him off his course.

Cras.h.!.+

Lin Suo was sent flying a dozen meters, but so was the steel-encased figure. He smashed through a few trees.

And then he stood up again as if nothing had happened. Gripping his heavy, black spear tightly, he charged Lin Suo again fearlessly.

Lin Suo frowned. Qin Zhulu was a real pain in the a.s.s. His attacks were not particularly threatening, but they were disrupting his attempts to shut down the only possible threat—Li Luo. Plus, Qin Zhulu had always been a tough guy, and now he was encased in that black armor. He was as impregnable as a turtle sh.e.l.l.

He turned on Qin Zhulu first. “Well then, if you want to die, I’ll grant you death!”

He swung his mace, which was gleaming with blood, and charged Qin Zhulu.

Clang, clang, clang!

Each time they clashed, Qin Zhulu was badly rattled from head to toe. Soon, his palms were bleeding from the sheer effort it took to hold on to his weapon during each exchange. Still, he fought on without making a single sound. He risked his life again and again to attack Lin Suo’s vitals.

His efforts were heroic but fruitless. Every single attack was nullified by the b.l.o.o.d.y visage that protected Lin Suo.

Such was the disparity between their powers.

Luckily, Lu Qing’er had joined the fray as well. She chipped in with well-timed attacks that helped Qin Zhulu catch his breath, buying him precious time at crucial moments. But even with the pair working together, they were still badly outcla.s.sed by Lin Suo.

While Qin Zhulu was fighting Lin Suo with all his might, Li Luo was in a nearby tree. His keen eyes were watching intently for the slightest opening. He took a deep breath and drew his bow.

Within his body, both resonant palaces shuddered as they generated power.

His four resonant bubbles popped.

The two resonant powers clashed, mixed, struggled, and finally… melded.

The synchronization between his dual resonances gave Li Luo a dramatic increase in power.

His fingers danced across the bowstring, and a light arrow formed in the shape of a hawk. This was the Lambent Hawkeye’s power, its ability to channel its user’s resonant power into the arrow and fire it with a sonic-boom attack.

The stronger the wielder was, the more powerful the arrow would be.

Li Luo’s dual resonance-charged light arrow was many times stronger than before. It flew out with a pair of resonant power wings, streaming through the air like a hawk in full flight.

And at the tip of the arrow was the hawk’s sharp beak, br.i.m.m.i.n.g with remarkable and deadly power.

Halos constantly bloomed from the arrow’s tip, peeling away as it hurtled on.

This was the strongest attack Li Luo could muster right now.

Lin Suo inhaled sharply as he fought off Qin Zhulu and Lu Qing’er. He could sense Li Luo gathering his energies for this attack, and he could sense that Li Luo’s arrow would actually pose a serious threat to him.

With the treasured artifact, Li Luo was a force to be feared.

With a sudden, effortful blast of blood resonant power, he forced Qin Zhulu back in the instant that Li Luo fired. The hawk’s defiant scream rent the air, and the sky turned white with light.

The sonic boom attack made Lin Suo’s brain buzz with a foggy haze. He frowned but quickly shook it off.

Hands tightly wrapped around his mace, he prepared himself to deal with Li Luo’s strongest attack. He knew that if he could just stop this one attack, Li Luo’s squad would be set back drastically. The advantage would be his again, once they had spent their greatest weapon.

Swoos.h.!.+

The white light swept out past him.

Just as Lin Suo prepared to receive the light arrow, it suddenly veered away to his right.

Had it missed?

Bizarrely, it was headed straight for Lu Qing’er.

“Qing’er!” Li Luo yelled.

Her slim hands moved, icy resonant power forming on her lace gloves. She created a mirror of ice that deflected the light arrow.

Swoos.h.!.+

The arrow was deflected, but not towards Lin Suo. Instead, it was flying back to Li Luo.

Lin Suo was completely wrong-footed now. He had no idea how this attack was unfolding.

His confusion was soon replaced with fear.

He saw Li Luo also holding up a mirror of light to reflect his own arrow.

When the hawk-arrow of light pierced his mirror of light, it was reflected yet again. But this time, it seemed to become even faster, leaving a faint afterimage in the air.

Swis.h.!.+

Even someone as strong as Lin Suo could only see a glimmer of white light ricocheting around. Before he knew it, it was in his face, and cold sweat ran down his forehead.

What speed!

Li Luo was an unsettling bag of tricks!

How had he increased the light arrow’s speed with his mirror?!

Lin s...o...b..llowed, his resonant power surging forth. His crimson visage turned an even more brilliant shade of red, crossing its fists before him like a s.h.i.+eld.

Pss.h.!.+

The light arrow was almost there.

All three watched with bated breath as their best hope pierced the blood visage.

Pssssss.h.!.+

The blood visage’s arms were penetrated by the arrow, which buried itself in Lin Suo’s chest.

Cras.h.!.+

Lin Suo was sent flying, spitting a mouthful of blood that sprayed through the air. This time it was an injury rather than an attack.

Lu Qing’er and Qin Zhulu’s eyes widened in delight. Their incredibly strong foe had fallen!
