Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1759

Chapter 1756 The Contaminated Withering and Flourishing

The moment the Withering and Flourishing Phase fell into Li Lingjing’s hands, not only Li Luo and Li Taixuan’s expressions suddenly changed, but even the joy on the faces of the numerous powerful alliance members, who had been ecstatic at the reversal of the situation, instantly froze.

It was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing their joy.

They had all seen Li Luo seize the Withering and Flourishing Phase, but no one had expected the Withering and Flourishing Phase to radiate power, thwarting Li Luo’s capture and then actively surrendering to Li Lingjing.

The lightness of Li Lingjing’s attack made it seem as if the Withering and Flourishing Phase was under her control!

“How could this be?! How could the Withering and Flourishing Phase surrender to her?!”

The usually calm and composed expression of King Qi Huang of Light darkened with a veiled expression. In this decisive battle, the Ten Divine States had unleashed countless tricks, paying such a horrific price to finally reverse the situation. They were on the verge of complete victory, only to have the final victory so easily snatched away by Li Lingjing. Boom

!

As everyone was stunned, Li Taixuan decisively struck. He clenched his five fingers into a fist and launched a powerful punch.

The vast power of the Heavenly Dragon’s status roared out, transforming into the Heavenly Dragon Fist Seal, blasting towards Li Lingjing.

Simultaneously, behind Li Lingjing, Li Luo’s figure flashed. In the void behind him, the Dragon Fang Sword Formation of All Aspects took shape once again, transforming into a mighty stream of black lightning sword light, striking towards Li Lingjing.

Facing the combined suppression of Li Luo and Li Taixuan, Li Lingjing’s pale, indifferent face remained unmoved. This time, she didn’t even dodge, but slowly raised the “Withering and Flourishing Phase” in her hand, which resembled a magical fruit.

In the next instant, a vast and mighty power of the status quo surged out.

The power surging towards Li Taixuan was filled with an aura of decay. Wherever it passed, even the very void seemed to wither, as if reaching the end of its life.

The power of Li Luo’s personality surged with a flourishing aura, seemingly transforming vibrant mountains and rivers. Countless towering ancient trees sprang forth from thin air, forming an indestructible barrier of vitality.

The moment they made contact, Li Taixuan’s personality fist seal quickly withered. Li Luo’s black lightning sword, after destroying countless layers of vitality barriers, ultimately dissipated into nothingness due to exhaustion.

This scene caused an uproar among the Shenzhou coalition.

Li Luo and Li Taixuan, two peerless ninth-grade cultivators, simultaneously attacked to suppress the attack, yet were both neutralized by Li Lingjing?!

“She could actually activate the divine fruit’s ‘Withering and Flourishing Phase’?”

Qi Huang, Zhen Linshuang, Wang Xuanjin, and other top experts stared in disbelief. Li Lingjing’s previous attack had clearly invoked the power of the ‘Withering and Flourishing Phase’.

But she hadn’t refined this divine fruit’s nature, so how could she activate it?

Li Luo and Li Taixuan were also puzzled. After all, the Divine Fruit Aspect was the most supreme divine object in the world; it wasn’t something anyone could possess and activate at will.

As everyone was baffled, the “Withering and Flourishing Aspect” in Li Lingjing’s hand began to change. The originally green-yellow Divine Fruit suddenly began to develop eerie black lines.

These lines seemed to emanate from the deepest part of the Divine Fruit.

With the appearance of these lines, the Divine Fruit Aspect began to exude an ominous, terrifying aura,

like rotting fruit .

With the appearance of this ominous, sinister aura, the countless Dark World aliens that had been retreating suddenly stopped in their tracks. Countless crimson eyes glared frantically at the “Withering and Flourishing Aspect.”

The next moment, a scene that astonished the Alliance army unfolded: these Dark World aliens stopped retreating and, like a madman, charged once again towards the Tianxing Plains.

No, they were charging towards the “Withering and Flourishing Aspect”!

Even though the coalition forces seized the opportunity to launch continuous offensives, they remained oblivious, like pilgrims on a pilgrimage.

Li Luo and Li Taixuan’s expressions also changed drastically. They stared intently at the “Withering and Flourishing Phase,” an ominous, utterly evil aura that drove the aliens mad and even frightened them.

It was the most terrifying thing in the world, the source of all disasters, the aura of the “source of all evil”!

“How could the Withering and Flourishing Form contain the aura of the ‘Source of All Evil’?” Li Luo muttered in disbelief.

Li Taixuan’s face was heavy as he spoke slowly, “There’s only one possibility. In those ancient times, the legendary sect master’s aura, tainted by the Source of All Evil, wasn’t just his own Nirvana Form. This Withering and Flourishing Form… had also been tainted.”

After the Alchemy Saint later shared this secret with Heavenly King Jiang, word of the legendary sect master’s hidden secrets had spread among the Heavenly Kings of Shenzhou, and Li Taixuan naturally knew about it as well.

Li Luo’s heart was shaken, and his pupils couldn’t help but dilate.

The legendary sect master’s aura, tainted by the ‘Source of All Evil,’ wasn’t just Nirvana?!

He couldn’t help but gasp, suddenly filled with dread. If this tainted “Withering and Flourishing Form” fell into his hands and was eventually absorbed by him, wouldn’t he, too, be trapped in the same despair of contamination?

Facing the most terrifying entity in the world, Li Luo had no confidence he could withstand its contamination and erosion. After all, even the legendary Sect Master who dominated an era couldn’t do it.

“How could this be…”

Li Luo’s face sank. The “Withering and Flourishing Phase” that the Ten Great Divine Continents had been fighting for so long turned out to be a contaminated divine fruit?!

Li Taixuan sighed and said, “It seems this Spiritual Phase Cave Heaven isn’t meant to hide the “Withering and Flourishing Phase” but to suppress it. No wonder it’s so secretive and drastic.”

Li Luo now understood why the “Withering and Flourishing Phase” had resisted him and even actively thrown itself at Li Lingjing, even though he had just captured it. This was

because Li Lingjing was now the vessel of the Nirvana Phase’s power. In a sense, both the Nirvana Phase and the Withering and Flourishing Phase were contaminated by the “Source of All Evil,” naturally forming a special connection.

It was no wonder that Li Lingjing could directly activate the Withering and Flourishing Phase’s power.

However, this meant that the Withered and Flourishing Formation fell into the hands of the Guiyi Society, who, in this decisive battle on the Tianxing Plains, emerged as the ultimate victors.

Although the Dark World’s offensive had been repelled, the Guiyi Society remained in grave danger, their ties to the Dark World remaining close.

Furthermore, the Desolate Formation was tainted by the Source of All Evil. If it were to escape its coffin, it would be a horrific disaster for the Ten Divine Continents.

“Even if the Withered and Flourishing Formation is tainted, it cannot fall into the hands of the Guiyi Society!” Li Luo declared gravely.

Li Taixuan gazed ahead, then shook his head helplessly, saying, “Now it’s probably not a question of whether or not the Withered and Flourishing

Formation can be recovered… You and I, father and son, are in real trouble.” Li Luo’s heart trembled, and he looked up into the distance. Li Lingjing, eyes like a dark vortex, gazed at them indifferently. As she grasped the Withered and Flourishing Formation, the power of her personality emanated from it, intensifying to an extremely terrifying level.

Even above his head, gigantic ancient words of amnesty began to appear. These were the rules set by Heavenly King Jiang with the help of the Ancient Covenant.

Clearly, Li Lingjing, after leveraging the power of the Withering and Flourishing Phase, had also reached the same level as Li Taixuan had reached before.

No… more than that!

Because the ancient words of amnesty that appeared above Li Lingjing’s head were no longer suspended in a deterrent, but were now beginning to vibrate violently, as if they would fall down in the next moment, exerting a force beyond the rules to suppress.

This scene also caused Qi Huang, Zhen Linshuang, Wang Xuanjin and many other powerful people to change their expressions.

They understood that the situation, which they had originally thought to be under control, had changed again at this moment.

With the help of the power of the “Withering and Flourishing Phase”, Li Lingjing was clearly going to attack Li Luo and Li Taixuan.
