Absolute Resonance

Chapter 1173: Hundred Thousand Feet Heavenly Resonance Diagram

The white rain continued to envelope the area. The previous stalemate had been completely broken. Many of the students were struggling to hold on. Row after row of human wax figures began to form on the field.

Even some of the Greater Heavenly Resonance students could do nothing but endure. There was no way for them to get out of this situation at all.

Jiang Qing'e, Ning Meng, and Wu Changkong were the core of their battle prowess. However, they had been trapped by the human skin lanterns from the White Eyed True Devil. There was no way for them to escape any time soon.

As a result, they felt a sense of absolute despair.

Mentors from the college had always followed them on their missions in the past, so they had never experienced the true terror of a True Devil. Now that the mentors were missing, they could only rely on themselves. They had finally seen first-hand how wide of a gap there was between a True Devil and a Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier cultivator.

Feng Lingyuan and Li Hongyou had also noticed that the White Eyed True Devil had locked onto Li Luo. A flash of worry appeared in their eyes. They tried to rush to his aid, but the white rain flooded over and their resonant power was eroded in an instant.

"Be careful, Li Luo!" They could only scream at the top of their lungs to warn him.

However, such an act was pointless. Li Luo could only smile helplessly even though he had heard the warning. He had not expected to catch the White Eyed True Devil's attention despite hiding all the way in the back.

The White Eyed True Devil must have felt the presence of the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf lying dormant within his bracelet. This was a power that could potentially threaten it.

That was why it wanted to eliminate him first.

Although his bracelet had a seal from a King, the White Eyed True Devil was part of the All-Beings Devil King, a Triple Crowned King. This terrifying enemy was certainly watching them from outside the Fifth Minor Earthly Branch Realm.

There was no way for the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf to sneak by unnoticed.

Li Luo's thoughts spun as he shook his bracelet repeatedly. He was trying to awaken the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf as quickly as possible, but the white wax arrow had condensed once again in the distance. Waves of terrifying pressure could be felt all the way here, sending a chill up Li Luo's spine.

He remained resolute regardless of the situation. Even in the face of death, he had not panicked because he knew that would not help.

As Li Luo continued with his awakening attempts, the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf finally showed some signs of stirring.

Waves of vicious energy overflowed and condensed within the world space inside the bracelet.

"Hurry! Hurry up, Elder Brother Five Tail! Wake up, please!" Li Luo did not show it on his face, but his heart was full of anxiety.

That was when a chilly feeling of unrest started rising in his heart. A cold flash flickered through the White Eyed True Devil's eyes. Although the white wax arrow was still incomplete, it had suddenly shot through the air and was now flying towards him at an unimaginable speed.

The crafty White Eyed True Devil had also sensed that the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf was on the cusp of waking up. Therefore, it did not continue to condense its strength any further and was planning to use what was available to kill Li Luo right now.

Whoosh!

The white arrow arced across the sky. The energy in the surroundings shuddered and murderous intent filled the air.

Many of the Greater Heavenly Resonance students were horrified when they saw the arrow. If they were the target, they would become deadmeat for sure.

And Li Luo... He was a nine-pearl, but with such a big difference in levels, any resistance he put up would be pointless. He would most likely be killed this time.

The white light filled with the aura of death rapidly grew larger in front of Li Luo's eyes. Cold sweat broke out. The White Eyed True Devil had acted decisively, not giving him any chance to prepare.

Li Luo's thoughts ran through his mind like a bolt of lightning. He began thinking through the methods he had to attempt to find a ray of hope to survive this attack. At this critical moment, everyone suddenly saw a divine light burst out from one of the human skin lanterns in the distance.

Radiant light energy inundated the entire area.

Under its immense glow, the human skin lantern burst into flames, and a dazzling figure burst forward, appearing a few dozen feet in front of Li Luo.

Everyone watched in surprise.

A slender and petite figure wielding a heavy sword had appeared. Immense light resonant power flooded out of her like a burst dam and four wings of light fluttered behind her back.

It was Jiang Qing'e!

"What? She managed to break through the human skin lantern seal?!" All the students' faces changed. Even Ning Meng and Wu Changkong, who were still trapped in the human skin lantern, were shocked to sense this.

At the same time, they were sensitive enough to detect that the light resonant power coming from Jiang Qing'e had grown considerably from before.

Ning Meng and Wu Changkong lifted their heads up and looked at the sky above Jiang Qing'e as they already knew why.

A majestic light diagram had expanded, and endless light energy flowed within it. It possessed overwhelming amounts of divine holy power.

Faintly, they could see a Godly Palace within the diagram. It truly resembled a palace that belonged to a goddess of light.

In fact, what really shocked them was the scale of the Heavenly Resonance Diagram.

With one look, they could tell that it was a hundred thousand feet wide!

Like the Glass Fiend Tier in the Fiend Body Stage or the nine-pearl tier in the Heavenly Pearl Tier, the hundred thousand feet Heavenly Resonance Diagram was the pinnacle of the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier.

In terms of difficulty, this was many times more difficult to achieve than the previous two.

Under ordinary circumstances, one would be considered a Duke seedling if their Heavenly Resonance Diagram could reach ninty thousand feet. This was something that not even Feng Lingyuan and Yue Zhiyu had achieved yet.

Ning Meng had managed to reach ninty-eight thousand feet while Wu Changkong had reached ninty-six thousand feet. Although they were just a few hundred feet away from the hundred thousand feet Heavenly Resonance Diagram, the last few feet were the most challenging. Even someone with a ninth-grade resonance like Ning Meng had toiled hard for a long time, only to merely scratch the surface of it.

As for Wu Changkong, he would need to chance upon some kind of opportunity.

A one hundred thousand feet Heavenly Resonance Diagram was truly hard to achieve. When everyone saw it, they were completely taken aback.

Jiang Qing'e's pristine and beautiful face remained calm and composed under their surprised gazes. Her eyes only revealed a hint of surprise when she glanced at her chest.

She could feel a sacred lotus blooming within her heart. It acted as a protection barrier for her Heart of Light.

The power of the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus was beyond her imagination.

She had only used an insignificant portion of its power to achieve the pinnacle of the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier. Of course, apart from the fact that the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus was a King-grade rare material, it was also partly due to the strong foundation that Jiang Qing'e already possessed.

With her talent, she would've achieved this eventually without the help of the Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus. The Nine Marks Sacred Heart Lotus had simply sped things up for her. Li Luo had really worked hard to help her recover from the aftermath.

Emotions whelmed up within her heart. However, her eyes remained sharp.

She looked at the deadly, white arrow that was flying through the air. She lifted her heavy sword and slashed downwards elegantly. At the same time, the Heavenly Resonance Diagram in the sky above resonated with the strike, and endless light energy poured out.

"Seven Treasures Glazed Sword of Light!"
