Chapter 1082: Dragon and Elephant's Divine Might
The squad from the Heavenly Inferno Sage College fled desperately into the forested mountains.
Behind them, two murderous squads pierced through the air in hot pursuit. Waves of ferocious resonant power shot out towards them.
Deng Zhu was positioned at the rear of the squad, his seven radiant Heavenly Pearls spinning frantically as mud-colored resonant power gushed out.
Bang! contemporary romance
Deng Zhu clearly posessed an earth resonance and was a defensive specialist. When his resonant power activated, the earth behind the team shook and thick walls of mud and stone rose up, forming defensive barriers against the attacks of the other two teams. But with just his own strength to rely on, the earthen walls were shattered in mere moments like thin paper.
"Junior Sister Lu Ming, I won't be able to hold them off for much longer at this rate!" Deng Zhu screamed in agony, his forehead plastered in sweat.
"Team Leader, hold on just a little longer! This large commotion will surely draw Li Luo over here!" Lu Ming encouraged him while she grabbed her other two teammates with both hands. Lightning resonant power flowed around her long legs, causing her speed to drastically increase.
She realized that Deng Zhu was at his limit, but there was no way to fight back and win, so the only option was to run away and stall for time.
It was not as if Lu Ming did not think of pretending to agree to Chen Xuan's proposal to join forces before backstabbing them once they had joined up with Li Luo, but she had decided not to follow through with that plan because Chen Xuan was no fool. If they agreed to join forces, Chen Xuan would be wary of the Heavenly Inferno Sage College since it was from the same continent as the Astral Sage College. He probably would've forced them to fight Li Luo first.
So instead of being a disposable pawn, it was better to risk it all.
Chen Xuan frowned as he looked at the fleeing four-member team and said, "They are trying to stall for time. It seems that they really did have the intention of joining forces with Li Luo from the get-go."
An icy rage swept across Chen Xuan's eyes as he gripped his heavy battleax tightly. The eight Heavenly Pearls behind him erupted into a deafening buzz as worldly natural energy gushed out.
Weng!
He slashed down with his battleax, and a one-hundred-foot tall wave of resonant power shot out with an ear-piercing sonic boom, leaving long white streaks in the sky.
Chen Xuan's first strike was a dominant display of crushing power, and Deng Zhu's heavy defenses were destroyed instantly. The resonant power blasted towards the trio at the front.
The ground was torn asunder and all the trees in the vicinity were cleaved away from the base of their trunks.
But Chen Xuan's expression darkened when he saw the silhouettes of Lu Ming and the others begin to slowly dissipate.
“An illusion?”
Chen Xuan quickly scanned the vicinity and spotted some figures desperately running between the trees in the distance to his right. His gaze landed on Lu Ming, and he sensed two separate resonant powers flowing within her body.
"Illusion resonance and lightning resonance! She possesses dual resonances!"
Chen Xuan was a bit surprised and let out a cold chuckle. "It's a pity that you're only in the Three Star Hall now. You might be able to show your prowess in the academic evaluation better when you become a titled student in the future."
After he spoke, a wild and savage wind whistled harshly around him. A moment later, he suddenly disappeared, splitting into numerous deadly shadows in midair.
In the short span of ten or so breaths, he reappeared above Lu Ming like a bird of prey.
“Junior Sister Lu Ming, watch out!”
The startled Deng Zhu hurriedly extended a fist. His muddy resonant power roared, and copious amounts of earth converged and transformed into a giant fist that flew towards Chen Xuan.
However, Chen Xuan responded with a single backhand slash, and an emerald resonant power tore the giant fist apart with little difficulty.
At the same time, he extended a finger, launching a sharp blade of wind directly towards Lu Ming.
Facing Chen Xuan's overwhelming attack, a helpless look surfaced in Lu Ming's eyes. The power disparity between the two parties was immense, so the attack was simply too difficult to block.
Just then, a piercing sonic boom erupted from the sky as an arrow of light tore through the air, fiercely colliding with the wind blade.
Bang!
The wind blade was shattered on impact, but the light arrow continued ruthlessly in its trajectory towards Chen Xuan's face.
The sudden development took Chen Xuan by surprise, but he managed to use his battleax to intercept the arrow.
Chen Xuan's hands trembled violently when the arrow crashed straight into his weapon. He winced in pain, his expression turning dark as he raised his head to look into the distance.
A radiant figure shot through the sky. The person held a bow in his hand, dragon wings flapping slowly behind him as his grayish-white hair glowed with an incandescent luster in the daylight.
Li Luo had made it!
"Li Luo!” Lu Ming was relieved that she had held on for long enough for Li Luo to arrive.
Li Luo waved his hand towards Lu Ming and laughed. "Leave Chen Xuan to me. Though I have to ask you to please delay the others for a while. I'll finish him off as soon as possible to help you."
"What a big mouth!"
Chen Xuan's anger flared before he coldly asked, "Do you really think that I'm like those incompetent wastrels you've taken down?"
He was considered a heavenly genius in the Sacred Arts Sage College, attracting the respect of countless schoolmates. He had also been invincible since the start of the academic evaluation, even managing to defeat an opponent at the Eighth Heavenly Pearl Tier. So when he heard Li Luo's arrogant declaration, he could not help but become incensed.
Chen Xuan he did not waste any more time exchanging verbal barbs with Li Luo. Eight Heavenly Pearls dazzled like stars behind him, and worldly natural energy started to gush in.
A powerful wave of pressure burst forth; this pressure was far stronger than that of an average eight-pearl.
Evidently, Chen Xuan's strength had reached the pinnacle of the Eighth Heavenly Pearl Tier.
No wonder he was able to defeat other opponents at the same tier.
Gripping the heavy battleax, a viridian wind resonant power flowed out of him, forming extremely sharp wind constellations at the tip of his weapon.
Facing the battle-hungry Chen Xuan, Li Luo spared no courtesies and raised his hand to loose two more light arrows towards his head.
Grasping the situation, Chen Xuan snorted calmly, and the flesh between his eyebrows cracked apart to reveal a viridescent vertical eye. This was the Wind of Corrosion Spirit Pearl, a single violet-eye treasured artifact, but its power was comparable to that of a twin violet-eye treasured artifact due to the fact that it had been nurtured by Chen Xuan's flesh and blood for many years.
The eye could emit a special attack called Wind of Corrosion, which was extremely overbearing and could erode many resonant power attacks. It was able to melt flesh and bones if it entered the human body, and even his eight-pearl opponents in the previous three battles had been forced into difficult situations by it. This was one of Chen Xuan's trump cards.
The dusky green Wind of Corrosion whistled forth, colliding with the light arrows and destroying them swiftly.
Li Luo's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. Chen Xuan had some skills after all.
Since this was the case...
Li Luo grinned and extended his palm, materializing the Dragon Elephant Blade in his grip.
At the same time, the sound of thunder crashed and bellowed from within his body as the lightning forge in his chest shook violently.
Thunderpeal Avatar, Five Sonic Pulses!
At present, Li Luo had cultivated the Thunderpeal Avatar to its highest level.
Thunder reverberated within his body, and his flesh, blood, and bones were all rapidly fortified.
Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body, Nine Dragon's Might! The dragon sigil on Li Luo's brow began to glow and emit draconic roars. Violent and tyrannical power thundered like an angry dragon within his body, and the explosive power caused Li Luo's breath to become hot and fiery.
Li Luo's body swelled and tiny dragon scales emerged on his skin. An invisible and terrifying power vibrated with his every breath, causing the air to explode into layers of white mist.
He tightly grasped the hilt of the Dragon Elephant Blade. The three violet eyes on the blade started to greedily suck in worldly natural energy as if they were alive.
Slowly raising the sword, Li Luo examined the reforged weapon. The previous Golden-Jade Onyx-Elephant Blade had the power of the Onyx Elephant, and since the current version was much better than the previous, the Dragon Elephant Blade naturally also had its own unique features.
For example, this strike...
Li Luo's expression was aloof as he suddenly chopped downwards. Dragon and Elephant's Divine Might!
