Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1808

Chapter 1805: Thousand Eyes of Thousand Monuments Town

A sacred aura of light enveloped the entire Wanfeng Divine Continent. Under the influence of this aura, the entire Divine Continent’s natural and spiritual energy seemed to be gradually being transformed into luminous energy.

Those possessing the luminous aura who cultivated in this Divine Continent would surely experience divine assistance.

This was already one of the world’s most formidable lands of luminous power.

Li Luo, however, gazed solemnly at the slender figure approaching him, treading upon the azure sky. The familiar figure was undoubtedly Jiang Qing’e.

But what made Li Luo’s heart skip a beat was that Jiang Qing’e’s eyes, as beautiful as the setting sun’s molten gold, seemed to gaze at him with a strange indifference.

He was instantly panicked.

Under Li Luo’s tense gaze, Jiang Qing’e approached him, her golden eyes gazing him up and down with indifference.

Li Luo was nearly pissed by her unfamiliar gaze.

Because from Jiang Qing’e’s current state, he felt a subtle sense of oppression, and the twelve phases within his body were constantly trembling, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Li Luo, on the other hand, had almost reached the pinnacle of his phases. The Six Palaces and Twelve Phases gave him ample confidence, allowing him to face even those Divine Fruit Heavenly Kings without fear.

After all, he had just subdued a Divine Fruit Great Demon King. Yet, facing Jiang Qing’e at this moment, the twelve phases within Li Luo’s body felt a strong sense of threat and fear.

This could only mean that during Jiang Qing’e’s time defending Wanfeng Shenzhou, she engaged in a fierce battle with the Divine Fruit Great Demon King that had attacked this place, and in the process, she further awakened her “Pseudo-Tenth-Rank Light Phase.”

Only a “Pseudo-Tenth-Rank” phase, surpassing the limits of the worldly phases, could inspire such fear and dread in Li Luo today.

If the world sees the Heavenly King as a deity, then in the Heavenly King’s eyes, the Tenth Rank, a being that exists only in legend, pursued with all its might by countless supreme beings throughout the ages, yet remains unattainable, is the true supreme Divine King.

Yet, throughout history, the Tenth Rank has remained a legend, never truly manifested. The closest analogy to the Tenth Rank is undoubtedly the two pseudo-Tenth Rank attributes left behind by the legendary Sect Master:

the Luminous Aspect and the Nirvana Aspect.

Therefore, Li Luo wondered if Jiang Qing’e’s sanity would be affected if she ever fully awakened the power of her “pseudo-Tenth Rank.

” Just like now,

Li Luo’s scalp tingled as he looked at Jiang Qing’e, who regarded him indifferently. He trembled and said, “Sister Qing’e, what’s wrong with you?”

Jiang Qing’e remained silent, staring at him silently.

Li Luo felt as if the air had frozen, and just as his mind was about to collapse, a playful smile suddenly curled up the corners of Jiang Qing’e’s lips.

“Are you scared?” Jiang Qing’e smiled lightly, and a rare cunning emerged in her eyes, which were always calm and composed.

Li Luo was stunned and angry. He didn’t expect that Jiang Qing’e would be naughty to him.

“It’s not funny at all. Can this be a joke?” Li Luo felt relieved, and at the same time scolded with a stern face.

“Who told you to scare me by self-destructing first?” Jiang Qing’e said unhappily.

She was naturally always paying attention to the situation on Li Luo’s side. When she saw Li Luo self-destructing and fighting with the Nine Snake Demon King, Jiang Qing’e experienced the emotion of fear for the first time…

And it was because of this uncontrollable fear that her “bright aspect” was further awakened.

Li Luo was stunned. He could hear the worry in Jiang Qing’e’s words. His heart warmed up immediately and his expression relaxed. He reached out and held Jiang Qing’e’s hand, sighing: “You know how tricky the God Fruit Demon King is. Dad, mom and grandpa have disregarded themselves to trap the powerful enemy. At this time, how can I not take the risk and fight to break the deadlock.”

Jiang Qing’e pursed her red lips, and her fingers slowly clasped Li Luo’s fingers, feeling the reassuring warmth somewhat greedily.

“How’s it going over there?” Li Luo asked.

Jiang Qing’e waved her jade hand gently upon hearing this, and the luminous energy enveloping the entire Wanfeng Divine Continent suddenly surged violently, converging at numerous locations across the vast Divine Continent.

Li Luo cast his gaze across the Divine Continent, and then he saw a thousand luminous monuments, each shimmering with crystalline light, standing as if cast from crystal.

The area within a ten-thousand-mile radius of the luminous monuments was filled with an extremely sacred luminous energy. Not only the ground, but even the air itself was condensed with luminous runes that seemed as if they were tangible.

These luminous runes completely sealed off the thousand-square-meter area.

A divine light streamed from Li Luo’s eyes, piercing beneath the luminous monuments.

It turned out that at the base of each luminous monument lay a pitch-black eye. These eyes resembled those of a ferocious beast, enormous, their eyeballs throbbing wildly and violently, emanating an endless aura of evil. Even an ordinary King Realm expert would be gradually tainted by simply gazing into one.

“Is that… the Thousand-Eyed Demon King?” Li Luo asked, somewhat surprised.

Jiang Qing’e nodded, “I battled it, relying on a portion of the awakened ‘Pseudo-Tenth-Rank’ Light Power to illuminate its thousand eyes, hidden in layers of the void. Then, using the ‘Thousand Tablets Technique’ to separate and seal it, I managed to subdue it.”

Jiang Qing’e’s words were simple, but Li Luo could sense the thrilling moments of their clash. After all, Li Luo knew the power of the Divine Fruit Demon King. He had used nearly every possible means, ultimately relying on self-destruction and resurrection to bring the Nine-Snake Demon King down.

“Thank you for your hard work,” Li Luo said softly.

Thus, the balance of this decisive battle began to tilt in favor of the Shenzhou World.

“Has your Life and Death Aspect dropped in rank?” Jiang Qing’e suddenly exerted a slight pressure on Li Luo’s slender hand. Although Li Luo tried his best to conceal the damage, Jiang Qing’e, whose realm had been elevated due to the further awakening of her “pseudo-tenth-grade” Light Aspect, was so advanced that she could sense something strange within him even at the moment of skin-to-skin contact.

Upon hearing this, Li Luo replied honestly, “Every resurrection depletes the rank of my Life and Death Aspect. It’s already dropped to the lower ninth rank. If it drops any further, the power of resurrection will be lost.”

“But don’t worry, it’s not a big deal. I can restore it later when I have the chance.”

However, Li Luo understood that raising the Life and Death Aspect from the lower ninth rank back to the upper ninth rank would be no easy task. It would not only take a considerable amount of time, but also require the assistance of the highest-quality Spirit Water and Miraculous Light.

However, compared to suppressing the Nine Snake Demon King, a drop in rank was a minor issue. At worst, he could just use less of these self-destructive resurrection tricks.

As Li Luo pondered this, he suddenly felt Jiang Qing’e take a step forward, and a refreshing, delicate fragrance washed over him.

The next moment, he felt a soft touch on his lips.

His pupils dilated slightly, reflecting Jiang Qing’e’s delicate, slightly flushed face.

Before Li Luo could react, he sensed an indescribable, mysterious aura flowing from her lips into his body as Jiang Qing’e’s lips met his.

That aura was incredibly pure and ancient, like the first ray of light born from the primordial chaos of heaven and earth.

Within it, Li Luo sensed a profound aura of supreme affinity.

These strands of aura flowed through his body, ultimately surging towards the Life and Death Aspect.

Then, something truly jarring occurred to Li Luo’s heart. Under the influence of those mysterious auras, the Life and Death Aspect, which had fallen to the lower ninth rank, suddenly erupted with immense power, as if consuming a tonic.

Its rank skyrocketed.

In just a few dozen breaths, he leaped from the lower ninth rank to the super ninth rank!

Li Luo’s eyes widened in shock.

It was so easy to return to the super ninth rank?!
