Absolute Resonance Chapter 475 - Of Covers and Poisonous Farts

Chapter 475: Of Covers and Poisonous Farts

“On this back I built the mountain, and with these hands I planted the trees,” Yu Lang boomed. “If you wish to pa.s.s unharmed, then pay a price to please!”

He stood fearlessly against Liu Xiao and the others, and they paused. “Careful, this is THE Yu Lang, the second dual resonance user of the Astral Sage College!”

The others looked around with trepidation. They could see the first dual resonance user taking on three commanders single-handedly and doing well. Such was the power of dual resonances.

If Yu Lang commanded similar power, then they were going to suffer for real.

But they were not scared enough to call off the attack. They had done some basic mental preparation, so they slowed their speed and continued to creep forward cautiously, intent on surrounding Yu Lang.

Even though he was a dual resonance user, they could take him down from all directions.

Yu Lang moved back swiftly, taunting them. “You think I’m a fool?

“And let me warn you all—this route is closed to you. If you insist on this foolish course of action, don’t blame me for showing you no mercy.”

“Yu Lang, if you’re really a dual resonance user, why not show us your power? Deter us! Running and hiding like this—you wouldn’t be a fake, would you?”

Yu Lang laughed. “Oh, yes, you’re right, I’m not a dual resonance user at all. You guessed it, of course. You believe me, right?”

Activating his wind resonance, he darted to and fro with ease, looking every bit the competent expert.

Liu Xiao still had no clue what the truth was. “Let’s chase on. We can’t back down now. But be careful. He must have teammates nearby.”

The others nodded.

The chase continued for a while, and finally Liu Xiao’s patience started running out. He gave increasingly aggressive fighting orders, and now resonant powers were flying.

Deadly blasts flew through the trees, seemingly sailing out of nowhere, given how obscured vision was in the forest.

Yu Lang was sweating through the top of his scalp, but he knew that this was not the time to let them know. Instead, he concentrated all his energy into dodging them, letting the patterns of the wind tell him where to move. Disturbances in the airflow could be sensed way before his eyes could detect them, and he swayed like a willow branch in the breeze to avoid them.

He was truly an agile one.

Nearby, w.a.n.g Hejiu, Duze Beixuan, and the others were watching from their hiding spots. “This guy’s actually got skills!” They were astonished.

“That’s Mentor Mi Er’s Cla.s.sical Wind Art. Yu Lang’s progress is the furthest in our squad,” Bai Doudou told them.

w.a.n.g Hejiu and Duze Beixuan were silent. Learning such a resonance art proved that this guy really did not fear death.

“They’re entering the zone,” Xin Fu reminded them. They all jumped when he spoke.They had forgotten he existed.

All of them prepared themselves.

Nearby, Yu Lang executed another daring dodge, avoiding a barrage of resonant power attacks. A powerful puff of wind resonant power helped him float back another ten meters, until he was in a particularly dense patch of forest in sunken terrain.

Liu Xiao and the others chased grimly.

As they rushed in, Qi Luozi struck. Her vines joined the trees together, pulling them tight and sealing the gaps between them. Before the pursuers knew what was happening, they were trapped tightly in a vine enclosure.

w.a.n.g Hejiu struck from the high ground. Digging deep, he summoned forth roiling plumes of poison gas.

It sank down rapidly within the enclosure, withering the leaves as it descended.

Behind him, Bai Doudou and Qiu Luo sent swirling gusts of wind to help hasten the poison gas’ circulation.

The attack was effective, and Yu Lang’s vision blurred immediately. He was giddy and disoriented.

Behind him, Liu Xiao and the others sensed that something was wrong. “Quick, break through the vines!”

In their panic, their formation started to falter.

Not all of the students were affected. There were plenty of water and wood resonance users in their ranks who were able to quickly purify the poison and turn their attention to breaking them out.

“w.a.n.g Hejiu, your gas doesn’t have enough poison!” Bai Doudou cried.

He scowled. “It’s hard to push it through empty air. Poison weakens when used this way!” he was sweating profusely from his efforts.

“I saw Duke experts use poison resonances before,” Xin Fu interrupted. “They could gas out an entire city. You’re really weak.”

“Duke! You said it yourself!” w.a.n.g Hejiu snapped. “This is all a Resonant Master can do, d.a.m.n it!” Still, he knew that he was not delivering on the crucial part of their plan. After a few moments of hesitation, he suddenly pulled out his dagger and cut a few gashes across his body, allowing his blood to flow.

He slapped his palms together and injected the blood into his poison, turning the purple a deeper shade of red.

The poison gas also grew stickier.

Yu Lang could barely move now, blindly stumbling onwards. He was starting to lose feeling in his limbs. But he knew that he was the weakest in terms of resonant power, which meant that those behind him were not even this affected.

“This little poison birdie sucks b.a.l.l.s,” he muttered to himself.

“It’s not enough!!” Bai Doudou shouted at him.

w.a.n.g Hejiu turned to her, ready to give her a piece of his irritated mind. He was shocked to see her with a knife in hand.

“Bai Doudou, what the h.e.l.l are you doing?”

“Blood strengthens it, right? Look at you! Those measly cuts couldn’t feed a d.a.m.n mosquito! Are you even a man?

“If you can’t do it, I’ll help you!”

She slashed w.a.n.g Hejiu across the back, cutting him deep. Fresh blood gushed out. “I-what the F*CK! Bai Doudou, have you lost your mind?!” w.a.n.g Hejiu screamed, arching his back from the pain. He couldn’t even care about his image right now as he twisted and squirmed pathetically. He just wanted to get her off his back. Desperately.

“Duze Beixuan, hold her!!” he cried.

Duze Beixuan looked a little embarra.s.sed. He had been caught off guard by Bai Doudou’s sudden move, and now, given the dire situation they were in, he was not too willing to hold her back.

He chose to pretend he had not heard w.a.n.g Hejiu screaming.

“Shush now.” Xin Fu comforted him. “Just use all that lovely blood, that’s a good boy.”

w.a.n.g Hejiu dearly wanted to slap them all across their faces, but he knew that this was not the time for blame games, so he hurriedly boiled his blood with his resonant power and injected the blood vapor into his poison gas.

This time, the poison finally turned from a pale, lavender color into a rich, royal purple.

Now the poison hit Yu Lang like a truck. “Son of a b*tch, this poison birdie heard me and went the other extreme—now he’s trying to kill me!”

Fortunately, it was not just Yu Lang. His attackers were starting to crumble as well, some of them fainting.

Only the stronger ones like Liu Xiao could hold on, and they finally managed to break out of the enclosure of poison.

Their numbers were heavily diminished.

They broke out into fresh air, gasping gratefully.

Bai Doudou swooped down to Yu Lang. She was relieved to see him still on his knees and conscious.

“Our turn,” she said grimly.

Duze Beixuan, Xin Fu, Qiu Luo and the others followed her.

Taking point, she shot forward like a rider of the wind, straight and true at Liu Xiao and the others.
