Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1420

Chapter 1417: Shenjiang City, the Battle of David Zun

Dragon’s Tooth Vein, Northwest Border.

Shenjiang City.

This is the most magnificent city on the northwest border. Now, with the spread of the disaster from Qin Tianwang’s lineage, it has become the focus of the entire Li Tianwang lineage.

Strong men from all sects are coming in an endless stream.

The countless large and small forces under the command of Li Tianwang were also recruited, and they were required to send a certain number of powerful marquises to reinforce Shenjiang City and guard this barrier.

During the past six months, the area stretching for tens of thousands of miles outside Shenjiang City has become a battlefield.

Countless aliens poured out like a tide, trying to tear cracks in the long defense line of Shenjiang City, and then invaded the territory of Longya Vein, causing massacres and triggering even more massive negative emotions, and these emotions were the breeding ground for the birth of aliens.

Fortunately, Li Tianwang’s lineage was well prepared, and with Tan Tai Lan personally stationed in Shenjiang City, a great and unparalleled marquis was undoubtedly like a magic needle that stabilized the sea, making people feel at peace and their morale high.

As a result, the defense line of Shenjiang City has become increasingly solid in the past six months. However, the defense line is too long, and a large number of manpower is needed to continuously eliminate the aliens who try to bypass the defense line.

But it must be said that this disaster also forced Li Tianwang’s lineage to invest a large amount of manpower and material resources into the northwestern border.

In a sense, the Qin Tianwang’s lineage’s move of diverting trouble did indeed bring some considerable trouble to the Li Tianwang’s lineage.

. . .

Shenjiang City, east of the city.

A majestic battle platform stood, and a huge boiling sound came from here, sweeping across the entire city, attracting the attention of countless passers-by in the city.

“I heard that today is the day for the selection of the Great David of the Tianlong Guard. In order to boost morale, the leader of the Tantai clan has specially opened up this competition. Anyone who is interested can go and watch the battle.”

“Oh? David Zun of the Heavenly Dragon Guards, this is a famous title.”

“The one who has the best chance of winning the position of the Great Lord is the Dragon Blood Guard Lord, Li Zhihuo. His strength has improved over the past six months, and he has already entered the upper fifth-grade marquis realm. I also heard that his fifth marquis platform is a nine-pillar marquis platform, which is enough to show how strong his foundation is.”

“I’m afraid it won’t be Li Zhihuo’s turn to be the Grand Lord of the Great Powers, right? Isn’t there a record in the Tianyuan Record that the Dragon Fang Guard has produced two top geniuses who have embarked on the path of unparalleled status? They are called Jiang Qing’e and Li Luo, right?”

“Jiang Qing’e is a Wushuang upper second rank. If she were here, Li Zhihuo would have no hope. But it is said that she has left the Dragon Tooth Vein. In order to kill Qin Lian in the Jiehe Treasure Area, Li Luo cut off a ten-pillar golden platform and fell to the Wushuang first rank. If he were to fight Li Zhihuo in this state, I am afraid he might not be able to win.”

“Moreover, Li Luo has been in seclusion since returning from Jiehe Treasure Territory. I think it may be because the sequelae of beheading the Ten Pillars Golden Platform are too severe. What a pity…”

“It’s a pity indeed. I wanted to witness the legendary unparalleled power.”

“…”

Countless discussions were heard everywhere in Shenjiang City. Today in the city, the “Dispute over David Zun” was undoubtedly a grand event on the northwest border, which could ease the tension and depression brought about by the border wars during this period.

The top leaders of Li Tianwang’s lineage decided to hold the “David Zun Contest” at this time, perhaps with this consideration in mind.

On the stands of the battle arena in the east of the city, a sea of people surged and the roar of excitement reached the sky.

At the highest stand, there were two figures that became the focus of everyone’s attention, and every glance cast at them was filled with awe.

One old man and one woman.

The old man was Li Tianji, who had just rushed over from the Dragon Bloodline to preside over the “David Lord Contest”, and the woman in a purple coat, who looked elegant and strong, was naturally the new head of the Dragon Teeth Vein, Tan Tai Lan.

Many curious eyes were directed towards Tan Tai Lan.

After all, although king-level strongmen are rare in normal times, they are still not as rare as the Great Unparalleled Marquis. Moreover, almost all the strongmen present are in the marquis realm, and the Unparalleled Marquis is the most perfect path in this realm.

If you can reach the level of Wushuang, you can become the king!
How majestic and magnificent this is.

But the road to becoming unrivaled is too difficult. Just a ten-pillar golden platform is enough to discourage people. What’s more, to become a unrivaled marquis, you need to build seven ten-pillar golden platforms!
The two people who were the focus of everyone’s attention were sitting on high-backed stone chairs at this time.

“Head of the Tianji Clan, you chose a very good time for the fight for Lord David.” Tan Tai Lan looked at the field indifferently and spoke.

Li Tianji heard this and smiled calmly: “What are you talking about, Master Tantai? Didn’t you also allow this time?”

Tan Tai Lan curled her lips and said, “Since the day Qing’e left, you have been urging me to do this, using all kinds of excuses and righteousness. How can I object?”

Li Tianji said: “Don’t think too much, Tan Tai. The main reason is that the war on the northwest border is intense, and we need a grand ceremony to boost morale. After thinking about it, only this “Da Wei Zun Fight” is suitable.”

“If Tan Tai wants to obtain the “Little Saint Seed” for Li Luo, we can discuss it later.”

Upon hearing this, Tan Tai Lan remained silent.

However, she did not say anything more. After all, after delaying for some time, she finally nodded on the exact time of holding the “David Zun Contest”.

The reason she agreed was not because she gave in, but because she received information that Li Luo had come out of confinement.

Calculating the time, we should be able to arrive in time.

People from the Dragon Bloodline like to scheme in many names, but she is too lazy to do these things, because as long as Li Luo arrives, Li Tianji and the others’ plans will naturally fail.

In the face of true strength, all calculations will collapse at one blow.

She has enough confidence in her son.

While the two were talking, five figures with extraordinary aura stood on the battle stage that attracted everyone’s attention.

These are the five Guard Lords who will compete for the position of David Lord this time.

The Dragon Blood Guard, Li Zhihuo.

The Dragon Fang Guard, Li Fuluo.

The Dragon Scale Guard, Li Tingyue.

The Dragon Bone Guardian, Li Jushen.

The Dragon Horn Guard is guarded by Li Boyuan.

These five people are considered to be the strongest people under the top leaders of Li Tianwang’s lineage. If they are promoted to upper-grade marquises in the future, they will become the backbone of Li Tianwang’s lineage.

All five Tianlong guards gathered around the battle stage, bursting into deafening cheers of encouragement, cheering for their own guard lord.

The atmosphere on the Dragon Tooth Guards’ side was a little duller, with many people showing some resentment on their faces.

Among them, Li Fengyi was the most irritable, saying, “How abominable! Why didn’t they wait for Li Luo to come out of retreat in this battle for the Grand Lord? Are the Dragon Blood Guards afraid of losing?”

Li Jingtao tried to appease her helplessly, but Li Fengyi glared at him and made him shut up.

Some other members of the Dragon Tooth Guards around echoed loudly and booed at the Dragon Blood Guards.

In this regard, Luo Jiang, Xia Yu and other Dragon Fang Envoys and Commanders did not stop them, because they were also a little unhappy. Jiang Qing’e had stayed in Shenjiang City for a month before, but at that time, the Dragon Bloodline did not dare to mention the dispute over David Zun. However, after Li Luo went into seclusion and Jiang Qing’e left, the matter was brought up again.

There was a hint of regret in Li Hongyou’s eyes. Although Li Luo no longer needed to prove anything here, he was indeed the most suitable person for the position of David Venerable.

Facing the provocation from the Dragon Tooth Guards, the Dragon Blood Guards had a slightly complicated expression. Ever since the Jiehe Treasure Area, Li Luo and Jiang Qing’e’s reputation among the Five Tianlong Guards had surpassed Li Zhihuo. The record of the two of them joining forces to kill Qin Lian was too terrifying.

In the Dragon Blood Guard, Li Hongque’s face became uncertain after hearing Li Fengyi’s sarcasm. He retorted, “The time for the competition between the Great Lords was agreed by the leader of the Tan Tai clan. Besides, Li Luo is only at the Wushuang First Rank now. Even if he comes out of retreat, he may not be able to compete with our Guard Lord.”

If it was before the Jiehe Treasure Territory, with Li Hongque’s personality, she would probably fight back tenfold when she heard Li Fengyi say that Li Luo wanted to compete for David Zun. But now, she only dared to say some conservative words.

There was no way. Although Li Luo was only of the first rank, his record in the Jiehe Treasure Area was too terrifying, so Li Hongque no longer dared to look at Li Luo as before.

Almost everyone understands that in the future, under the top leadership of Li Tianwang, Li Luo will definitely be the most respected. After all, the talent, foundation and potential shown by this guy are too terrifying.

And perhaps because of this, the top leaders of the Dragon Bloodline really want Li Zhihuo to obtain the right to use a “little holy seed” to check and balance Li Luo in the future.

“You wouldn’t dare jump like this when Qing’e is here!” Li Fengyi sneered.

Li Hongque was extremely angry, but he could not refute. Jiang Qing’e was an unparalleled upper second grade with terrifying combat power. Even if Li Zhihuo had been promoted to the upper fifth grade and was granted the title of marquis, it would be difficult for him to compete with her.

Standing behind Li Hongque were Li Qingfeng, Li Hongli and other people of the same generation as Li Luo. However, their expressions were extremely complicated at this moment, because they were witnessing Li Luo’s rise step by step.

When Li Luo first arrived at Longya Vein, they jokingly called him a country bumpkin who had returned from outer China.

But in the days that followed, they completely felt the fear of being dominated by this “country bumpkin”.

And now, it is the turn of Li Zhihuo, Li Hongque and others to feel this fear.

Li Qingfeng and Li Hongli looked at each other and sighed secretly. In the future, perhaps the older generation of strong men in the five veins would also experience this kind of fear.

The guards outside the arena were arguing endlessly, and the five guard masters on the stage also had different expressions.

Li Zhihuo’s face was calm, but there was a hint of excitement in his eyes, because he had been looking forward to this position for too long. As long as he won the position of David, he would be able to obtain the right to use the “Little Holy Seed”, which would transform him completely. If he seized this opportunity, when he broke through to the sixth rank and was granted the title of marquis, he might be able to try to build a ten-pillar golden platform.

At that time, he would no longer be afraid of Jiang Qing’e.

Moreover, the timing of this “Da Wei Zun Battle” is also the most ingenious moment. Jiang Qing’e left Longya Guard a few months ago. Once the biggest competitor left, Li Zhihuo’s ambition that had been suppressed suddenly burned again.

In addition, Li Luo had not appeared for half a year. I heard that he was in seclusion to recover from his injuries. This was reasonable. After all, how could he not pay a price for cutting off a ten-pillar golden platform?
Therefore, holding the “David Honor Contest” at this time was simply perfect for Li Zhihuo.

Behind this, perhaps there is some push from the top leaders of the Dragon Bloodline.

After all, although the Dragon Tooth Vein has lost Li Jingzhe, its reputation has been restored due to the return of Tan Tai Lan, who has achieved the status of Great Unparalleled Marquis. Moreover, Tan Tai Lan is more forceful than Li Jingzhe. It is said that in the past six months, Tan Tai Lan and the head of the vein, Li Tianji, have had many disputes over the handling of some matters.

The top leaders of the Dragon Bloodline probably don’t want to see the “little holy seed” fall into the hands of Jiang Qing’e or Li Luo.

So it was a good opportunity to take advantage of the fact that both of them were away to decide the position of “Lord David” first.

Li Zhihuo was secretly delighted, but Li Fuluo’s face looked a little unhappy. He stared at the former and snorted coldly: “It’s unfair for you to take the position of David Venerable.”

Facing Li Fuluo’s attack, Li Zhihuo said: “This is the decision from above, what can I do?”

“In terms of strength and contribution to the Jiehe Treasure Area, both Jiang Qing’e and Li Luo are more suitable for the position of David Lord than you, and you can only steal this position of David Lord when they are away.” Li Furuo laughed.

Li Zhihuo looked a little embarrassed, frowned and said: “I may not be Jiang Qing’e’s opponent, but Li Luo is only a Wushuang First Rank now, even if he is here, I am not afraid.”

“Li Fuluo, it’s arranged like this. There’s no point in you making a fuss here.”

Li Fuluo’s face turned black.

The other three Wei Zuns did not participate in the dispute between the two. In fact, they also knew that this “Da Wei Zun Battle” was a bit hasty, but the top leaders also had a very appropriate reason, which was to use this competition to ease the tense atmosphere on the border, and at the same time let all parties see the level of the top leaders of Li Tianwang’s lineage.

Boom!
At this moment, the sound of bells echoed across the battlefield, overwhelming the boiling sound in the sky.

That was the announcement that the David Zun Contest had begun.

However, just as the referee came on the field and was about to announce the rules of the competition, suddenly a rapid sound of breaking through the air rang out between heaven and earth.

On the high platform, the expressions of Tan Tai Lan and Li Tian Ji changed. A smile appeared on the corner of the former’s lips, while the latter sighed helplessly in his heart. It turned out that they were waiting here.

Just when the two of them were in different moods, a clear laugh came from the sky, overwhelming the excitement in the room and resounding through the air.

“Li Fuluo, can you please lend me your position?”

Hearing this extremely familiar voice, Li Furuo was stunned at first, and then he couldn’t help laughing out loud.

That man is finally here!
A beam of light descended from the sky amidst countless surprised gazes and landed on the battlefield.

The unique gray-white hair, the handsome face as if carved by a knife and an axe, and the brilliant smile on it caused the Dragon Tooth Guards to be silent for a few breaths, and then suddenly broke out into earth-shaking cheers.

“Commander Li Luo is mighty!”

On the battle stage, the other four guards were stunned for a few breaths, and then Li Zhihuo’s face couldn’t help but become ugly.

Damn, who taught him to be so slow? !

It’s really detrimental to one’s mentality!
