Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1693

Chapter 1690: Traces of Withering and Flourishing

Spiritual Cave Heaven!

A familiar name flashed through Li Luo’s mind, leaving him stunned and dazed. He had never imagined that the ancient blessed land where he had practiced so many years ago would awaken his memories in such a shocking way at this very moment.

Within that cave heaven, he had gained many opportunities. He remembered the medicine hut deep within, where a white ape pounded herbs.

It was also there that he encountered the remnant of Wang Taixi’s spirit. However,

at the time, Li Luo, who hadn’t even reached the Marquis Realm, had never imagined that the so-called Six Formless Sons could be such a terrifying existence.

After all, even those at the King Realm were already unattainable in Li Luo’s eyes. And what about Wang Taixi, a Formless Six Son who was a Divine Fruit Heavenly King, surpassing even ordinary Heavenly Kings?

He had never even heard of him.

“How could the ‘Withering and Flourishing Phase’ be hidden within the Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven? That space has been searched countless times by all forces within the Tianyuan Divine Continent, and countless individuals have entered to train.” After a few breaths, Li Luo regained consciousness and asked with some confusion.

He had trained there before, and his Wanxiang Wheel hadn’t sensed anything.

“The Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven you see is merely the outer perimeter of the secret realm. The true Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven is enshrouded by a powerful formation, impervious even to the mighty Heavenly Kings. If it weren’t for the current extraordinary period of intense turbulence in the heavens and earth, the true Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven would remain hidden,” Light King Qi Huang explained.

“Even the Heavenly Kings can’t penetrate…”

If it were just an ordinary relic, Li Luo would have thought this a bit exaggerated, but if the ‘Divine Fruit Withering and Flourishing Phase’ truly lay hidden within the Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven, then it made sense.

After all, this was the work of that legendary sect master.

If they could shroud even the River of Time with mist, preventing future Heavenly Kings, even Divine Fruit Heavenly Kings, from prying eyes, then completely obscuring a single relic wouldn’t be inconceivable.

“Right now, the energy of heaven and earth is trembling. That strange formation hasn’t yet fully manifested, but the torrent of energy it unleashes has already submerged the original Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven, causing it to be filled with turbulent spatial turbulence. Only once the strange formation fully manifests and everything stabilizes will the ‘Withering and Flourishing Aspect’ revealed within it.”

“Right now, whether it’s our Divine State Association, the Guiyi Association, or the Dark World, they’re all preparing for this.” Qi Huang sighed at this point, adding, “This will be the most terrifying peak-level battle among the Ten Divine States in a thousand years.”

Li Luo’s expression was solemn. In the past, the Dark World had been unable to intervene in the Divine Fruit Aspect, but now that they had invaded the Ten Divine States, they were bound to covet the Divine Fruit Withering and Flourishing Aspect. Adding the Guiyi Association to the mix, this conflict would likely push the Guiyi War to a climax.

It was clear that even the Light King Qi Huang felt the pressure of this peak battle.

The so-called “Ten Evil Demon Kings,” judging by their description, were clearly no ordinary Triple Crown peak demon kings, but rather monstrous beings capable of challenging the likes of Qi Huang and Zhu Yin Ming Wang.

This wasn’t surprising; after all, if humans possessed a unique path to Triple Crown from the Unparalleled Eighth Rank, how could the anomalous powers of the otherworldly races not be able to forge a comparable level?

In other words, the “Ten Evil Demon Kings” were practically equivalent to ten Light Kings? While not all of them were as terrifying, they were likely not far off.

Hiss.

Such terrifying power! No wonder even Qi Huang expressed a hint of apprehension when discussing the current “Withering and Flourishing Phase” battle.

“I wonder how long it will take for the “Withering and Flourishing Phase” to officially manifest?” Li Luo asked.

“Based on our detection and estimation, the spatial turbulence in the Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven will subside in about a year, and the Withering and Flourishing Aspect will also emerge,” Qi Huang said.

Li Luo’s face was solemn. This meant they still had a year to prepare.

At his level, participation in such a war was unavoidable. After all, whether the “Withering and Flourishing Aspect” fell into the hands of the Guiyi Society or the Dark World, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the entire Ten Divine Continents.

Moreover, the “Nirvana Aspect” of the Guiyi Society, suspected to be tainted by the Source of All Evil, might be able to break the seal of the coffin and truly emerge if it obtained the Divine Fruit Withering and Flourishing Aspect. If this mysterious being appeared, it would undoubtedly attack Jiang Qing’e, a pseudo-Tenth-Rank Light Aspect. Therefore, Li Luo could not sit idly by and watch it break free.

In this battle for the Withering and Flourishing Aspect, they would undoubtedly participate and contribute.

“You two are both unrivaled geniuses, unrivaled in the world, possessing limitless potential. Therefore, this year, I ask you to maximize your strength and enhance the foundation and power of our Ten Divine Continents,” said King Qi Huang to the two.

Li Luo and Jiang Qing’e, one at the peak of the Unparalleled Eighth Rank, the other at the Unparalleled Eighth Rank. The former, if exerting all his might, could even hold off an average Peak Triple Crown Champion, while the latter could even cross levels and contend with an ordinary Triple Crown Champion.

Such combat power, even within the Divine Continent, is considered top-tier and should not be underestimated.

King of Light paused, then continued, “If there is anything you need, the Shenzhou Association will try its best to facilitate it.”

Li Luo’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly gave a thumbs up and said, “Is the Shenzhou Association going to fund us? Leader Qi Huang is so domineering. In fact, I do need something here. My middle-ninth-grade wood and earth phase is a pain in my heart. If the Shenzhou Association can fund me with twenty bottles of upper-ninth-grade spiritual water and strange light, I may be able to have some confidence in evolving it to the upper-ninth grade.”

“If it can be done, with five upper-ninth-grade dual phases, my combat power will definitely be greatly improved. Then I can issue a military order and claim one of the “Ten Evil Demon Kings” in the battle for the withered and flourishing phases!”

Hearing Li Luo’s suddenly excited voice, King of Light’s face twitched, and he said helplessly, “You think I didn’t say that just now.”

Twenty bottles of upper-ninth-grade spiritual water and strange light? This kid is so bold! Ninth-grade Spiritual Water and Wonderful Light are already priceless, and the upper-ninth-grade is even rarer, its value inestimable.

The Shenzhou Association does have upper-ninth-grade Spiritual Water and Wonderful Light, but the stock is limited. Even then, it’s coveted by powerful Kings from all sides.

Li Luo’s demand for twenty bottles at once was enough to make Light King Qi Huang’s head spin. No wonder old Wang Xuanjin had warned him before this visit, saying that Li Luo, despite his young age, was incredibly ruthless.

“Hey, Qihuang Association leader, you’re being too narrow-minded. I won’t lose money on your investment. I’ll contribute as much as I eat, and I won’t let you down.” Li Luo was immediately displeased, but he continued to press forward.

“I really can’t give you the upper-ninth-grade Spiritual Water and Wonderful Light at the moment, but I did come here to bring you an opportunity.” Light King Qi Huang waved his hand, changing the subject.

“Opportunity? What opportunity?”

Li Luo was uninterested. At his current level, even the ordinary ninth-grade spiritual water and strange light no longer held much appeal.

However, he sensed that Qi Huang’s reason for coming, besides the rescue, might also be due to the opportunity he spoke of.

The King of Light chuckled softly and slowly said, “A blood sacrifice of ten thousand dragons returning to their ancestral home.”
