ABSOLUTE RESONANCE

Chapter 1496: Violet Thunder Dragon

A horde of golden Thunder Beasts slowly emerged from the forest. The golden thunder energy on their bodies danced wildly, giving off violent fluctuations that caused the air to distort. Further away, there was the silhouette of an even larger Thunder Beast! The dangerous aura it emanated caused the experts present to turn pale.

While everyone was petrified by the mighty auras of the Thunder Beasts, Zhou Jun beckoned with his hand and his thunder trident appeared. Above his head, eight majestic Duke Bergfrieds began to devour worldly natural energy and caused his aura to strengthen. He calmly swept his gaze across the crowd, lingering briefly on Li Luo. He was surprised by the fact that the latter had chosen Thunder Finger Peak. After all, while he had a thunder resonance, it was only a secondary one.

"Did he rush here with the intention of dealing with me? Is he planning to take action against me because of what I did to Jiang Qing'e during the Domain Traversal Battles?" Zhou Jun thought to himself as his eyes narrowed. Even so, he didn't really fear him. Li Luo had reached the Third Transcendent Duke Stage, but he had improved as well. If he really wanted to fight, Li Luo didn't have any advantage over him. The way he saw it, the only thing he had to be wary about was Li Luo simultaneously activating his two upper Destiny-grade Duke Arts to create an incredible killing blow.

"Let's go!" Zhou Jun didn't bother with any more thoughts and gave a low roar before shooting forward. The trident in his hand transformed into a bolt of thunder which then flashed through the sky, crashing into a Thunder Beast.

Bang!

The heavens and earth shook and the sixth-grade Duke equivalent Thunder Beast was immediately smashed into a pool of golden thunder energy.

Zhou Jun waved his hand and the trident returned to him, at the same time resolving the attacks from other Thunder Beasts who had begun to spew out golden thunderbreath. Above him, the thunder runes on his eight Duke Bergfrieds lit up brightly.

Divine Mist that resembled a sea of liquid lightning poured out, forming an array of countless thunder spears that then shot outwards, destroying the Thunder Beasts with devastating force.

In just a few short moments, Zhou Jun had carved a path through the Thunder Beasts with his squad swiftly following him.

His actions immediately attracted the attention of the squads who were incited into action. Wild, thunderous booms echoed throughout the forest and the mountains.

When Li Luo saw this, he nodded. As expected of the Mythical Spirit Ancient College's chosen representative—his strength was indeed overwhelming. At the same time, he wondered what was happening on the other mountains. Jiang Qing'e was competing with Diwu Mingxuan for the top position at this moment, right? Upon entering this mountain, thunderclouds completely clouded the surroundings and he couldn't tell what was happening elsewhere.

Despite his mind wandering with these thoughts, he didn't hesitate to make a move. He waved his hand, causing his Dragon Elephant Thunder Blade to appear in it. At the same time, he dashed forward to meet the Thunder Beasts.

Lu Qing'er, Li Hongyou, and the rest were hot on his heels.

Bang!

The golden Thunder Beasts, who emanated fierce fluctuations of energy, pounced towards him as well.

Li Luo formed a handseal with one hand, and majestic amounts of resonant power poured out, transforming into a dragon a thousand feet long that gave off powerful energy fluctuations.

This was the Lesser Dragon Sacred Seed's lower Destiny-grade Duke Art.

Dragon Rearing Art!

It was capable of transforming one's resonant power into a dragon capable of both offense and defense.

Under Li Luo's command, the dragon rammed forward with its full strength, brutally bashing apart the Thunder Beasts with horrifying physical might, filling the air with the shattered remnants of thunder energy. 𝘳𝘼𝐍ƟＢĚṣ

One of two beasts sometimes slipped through its onslaught, but before they could come within even a thousand feet of the squad, it would be sealed away with tyrannical frost energy, turning into a frozen sculpture that sparkled with lightning within.

Li Hongyou also took action, sending two golden seals towards Li Luo and Lu Qing'er, keeping their resonant power topped up.

The two Duke Bergfrieds above her emanated a wondrous fragrance, transforming into a pleasant-smelling crimson smoke that lingered in the squad's noses. They could immediately feel their resonant power recovering at an accelerated pace. Her support allowed even Chi Chan, Mi Er, and Cao Sheng to demonstrate combat strength that far surpassed what they normally could. Each Thunder Beast was thus crushed methodically and their squad's rate of advancement surpassed many others. In the end, they even started to catch up with Zhou Jun.

Zhou Jun sensed this, and his eyes glinted with cold light. He was in the lead when it came to the opportunity that was promised to the first one to ascend Thunder Finger Peak, but if Li Luo dared to challenge him for it, he would make him pay a veritable price.

However, this was not the time to do so. Furthermore, the closer they were to the peak, the more dense the condensed thunder energy was, becoming much more violent and dangerous.

In the middle of Thunder Finger Peak, thunderclaps resounded endlessly as each squad did their best to resist and break through the Thunder Beasts..

As time passed, the outline of the peak became increasingly clear.

This brought about renewed hope and joy to the squads.

Bang!

It was at this point in time that violet light flashed and streaks of violet thunderbolts descended from the clouds with terrifying fluctuations, targeting the squads.

Everyone's expressions fell as these thunderbolts contained truly fearsome power!

A lower seventh-grade Duke summoned all of his strength to resist it, but upon being struck, the void around him detonated and the seventh-grade Duke was sent flying, his body charred black while he involuntarily vomited a mouthful of fresh blood. When his blood stained the ground, traces of violet thunder energy could be seen coursing through it.

This sent chills down everyone's spines. That was merely a single thunderbolt, yet a lower seventh-grade Duke was grievously injured?

Everyone who could reach this point was considered the cream of the crop and all of the seventh-grade Dukes had robust foundations. Thus, the result left everyone apprehensively watching the terrifying thunderbolts that rained down, unwilling to be the bulwark for the rest.

Only two squads advanced without hesitation.

It was none other than Li Luo and Zhou Jun's squads.

Each thunderbolt was equivalent in strength to a full-powered blow of a seventh-grade Duke, so Li Luo's expression was solemn as he chopped down with his Dragon Elephant Thunder Blade.

A rift was ripped open in the void and the roar of three dragons could be heard, each accompanied with different resonant power undulations.

Three Dragons' Heavenly Banner Canon!

The three dragons then intertwined with each other, fusing into a colorful but ancient banner. As it dappled in the wind, it released a glorious divine light. Triple Dragon Demon Crushing Divine Light!

The beam of light swept across the sky, instantly dissolving the frightening violet thunderbolts. Each time the two energies collided, a deafening roar would resound throughout the world.

As everyone's shocked gazes were focused on this, Li Luo stood in the air at the forefront of his squad, single-handedly blocking off all the thunderbolts. Above him, his three Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds were rapidly devouring worldly natural energy, restoring his resonant power.

Fang Xingyun couldn't help but be moved by this sight, and he smiled bitterly. "Perhaps it is my fortune to have been capable of exchanging blows with such a prodigy at one point."

At this point, he felt that he would barely be able to exchange ten blows with Li Luo, and that was assuming that he didn't use that horrifying transformation Duke Art.

His gaze then turned towards Zhou Jun. The latter seemed to be showing off his power as well, his trident disappearing in a flash of thunder, shattering all of the thunderbolts that fell towards him.

With his upper eighth-grade Duke strength, the violet thunderbolts that could severely harm a seventh-grade Duke were unable to even cause him to pause.

The two squads then inched towards the top step by step with their respective leaders.

Everyone understood that the promised opportunity would fall in the hands of one of them.

The skies were filled with thunder and lightning as the two squads approached the peak. They could see that at the very top was a crystal mirror altar roughly a hundred feet tall. The mirror was crystal clear, reflecting every thunderbolt in the sky.

By reaching that altar, not only would they obtain the right to enter the thirty-second layer, but also obtain a vaunted opportunity.

Bang!

But at this time, the thunderclouds began to shrink at breakneck speed, and all of the violet light and thunder energy swiftly condensed.

At this point, everyone's eyes were wide open as the fluctuations coming from the cloud were rapidly approaching the Eighth Duke Stage!

It seemed that this was the final trial that one had to overcome to obtain the opportunity.

Li Luo and Zhou Jun's expressions turned solemn. Even they could feel a looming sense of pressure from the swiftly fusing thunder.

Boom!

The clouds danced wildly before a resounding thunderclap echoed out. A moment later, two gigantic violet Thunder Dragons soared out of the chaos. Each and every scale was clearly visible and the eyes of the creatures seemed to be filled with the endless intent to annihilate all living beings.

Roar!

This roar was almost akin to a thunderous boom that could shake the earth. It was then that the two creatures swiftly rushed through the sky, descending towards the two squads like a thunderstorm full of destruction. Their targets: Li Luo and Zhou Jun!
