Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1825
Chapter 1822 The Sixth Son
“Having lost the Myriad Forms Seed and the Myriad Forms Wheel, can you still be considered the Sect Master of the Formless Holy Sect?”
Facing Li Luo’s self-deprecating words, Yan Changsheng said seriously, “According to the sect rules of the Formless Holy Sect, anyone who forges the Ten Divine Seals and the Myriad Forms Wheel will automatically become the Sect Master and gain the Sect Master’s authority if the current Sect Master is no longer alive.”
“Therefore, from the moment you forged the Ten Divine Seals, you were already the current Sect Master of the Formless Holy Sect.”
“To strip you of your Sect Master status, the Sixth Son needs to gather all the sect elders, and only if no one objects will your Sect Master status be terminated.”
Su Ying chuckled and added, “This condition is probably impossible to meet in today’s world, so even if you don’t have the Myriad Forms Seed, this sect ruins that have slumbered for so long should still recognize your identity.”
“The Ten Divine Seals are achievements you attained through your own efforts, and they will not be changed for any reason. You have no need to belittle yourself.”
Li Luo was slightly taken aback. He looked at the ancient sect ruins before him, which commanded the awe of even many Heavenly Kings. He took a deep breath. Regardless of whether the sect ruins would acknowledge him as their so-called sect master, he had to enter them today to find the answer to confront the Dark Sect Master.
With this thought in mind, he no longer hesitated and took a step forward, treading through the void, approaching the sect ruins step by step under the tense gazes of the Heavenly Kings.
As he drew closer, the sect’s protective array suddenly erupted with an even more terrifying and deep rumble, with power fluctuations capable of annihilating Heavenly Kings stirring within.
It seemed to be warning Li Luo not to approach.
Upon seeing this, the expressions of the many Heavenly Kings changed. It seemed that the protective array did not recognize Li Luo?
“Uncle Changsheng, Aunt Ying, will this protective array really not harm Xiao Luo?” Tantai Lan couldn’t help but ask.
Yan Changsheng and Su Ying frowned slightly. The sect’s protective formation seemed to be reacting rather strongly. Had the formation developed problems over the long passage of time? Had it begun to deviate from the sect’s rules?
“Let’s wait and see. If something goes wrong, we’ll intervene to help,” Yan Changsheng said thoughtfully.
At this moment, there was no other way.
While the Heavenly Kings of Shenzhou stood ready, Li Luo, gazing at the ancient ruins emanating an increasingly dangerous aura, became increasingly calm.
Ignoring the roar of the formation, he drew ever closer to the sect ruins.
Boom!
The next moment, the sect’s protective formation erupted with a destructive roar, like an ancient beast utterly enraged. A vast and terrifying power, like a world-destroying cannon, roared throughout the world.
It seemed to be demonstrating the sect’s past glory to the beings of this era.
The light of the cannon, violently blasting towards Li Luo, seemed to pierce through from an ancient era.
Jiang Tianwang and the others could no longer restrain themselves and were about to attack.
But at this moment, Li Luo extended his palm towards the ancient divine cannon that had traversed the river of time. No power condensed in his palm, causing the many Heavenly Kings to show expressions of astonishment.
How could they possibly withstand this?!
But the next moment, a scene that shocked the Heavenly Kings appeared: the divine cannon, which seemed to roar like a ferocious beast of destruction, rapidly diminished its destructive aura as it approached Li Luo.
Finally, when the light of the divine cannon reached Li Luo’s palm, it exploded into a sky full of dazzling energy fireworks, spectacular and brilliant.
Li Luo looked up, his pupils reflecting the dazzling energy fireworks. This scene… resembled a grand celebration. A
coronation celebration for him, the next sect leader.
Ripples spread through Li Luo’s calm heart. He turned his gaze to the ancient sect ruins, where countless blurry figures of light and shadow appeared within the magnificent sect.
The figures, all clad in the robes of the Formless Holy Sect, exuded an extraordinary aura.
Standing within the sect’s ruins, their gazes seemed to pierce through time and space, fixed on Li Luo standing outside the sect. They then bowed in respect, and in that instant, a vast and resounding voice seemed to echo from ancient times.
“Welcome, Sect Master.”
Jiang Tianwang and the others showed surprise and delight. Just as Yan Changsheng and Su Ying had said, this ancient sect ruins acknowledged Li Luo’s identity.
Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Luo, standing outside the sect ruins, returned the salute to the countless blurry figures within, though these figures were not real, merely reflections of the sect ruins.
At this moment, a rainbow of light emanated from the sect ruins, forming a rainbow-colored avenue that stretched before Li Luo.
Without hesitation, Li Luo stepped forward, walking along this rainbow-colored avenue into the ancient sect ruins, sealed for countless years.
As for his entry, the protective array within the sect ruins remained silent, offering no further resistance.
“Let’s protect him,”
Yan Changsheng and Su Ying said upon seeing this.
Given Li Luo’s current special condition, no one knew what dangers might lurk within the sect ruins, and since others couldn’t enter, they had to rely on the two of them.
“Thank you both,” Li Taixuan said gratefully.
With two Divine Fruit Heavenly Kings protecting him, they should be able to handle any unforeseen events.
Heavenly King Jiang instructed the other Heavenly Kings to use their power to completely seal off this area, preventing outsiders from entering.
Yan Changsheng and Su Ying flashed, appearing directly behind Li Luo, and accompanied him as they entered the ancient ruins under the watchful eyes of the many Heavenly Kings behind them.
A light mist rose, gradually obscuring their figures.
Jiang Tianwang watched them disappear and let out a soft sigh. Now that the sect ruins had appeared, they had done everything they could. Now, it was up to Li Luo to find the answer to confront the Dark Sect Master.
This was truly their last hope…
In
the ancient and tranquil sect ruins,
Li Luo walked slowly, his gaze filled with curiosity as he surveyed this most brilliant and glorious sect in the long river of time in the Divine Continent. Those mysterious and magnificent buildings, even across such a vast expanse of time, still exuded an aura of majesty.
In that era, this must have been a sacred place that countless powerful figures and geniuses in the Divine Continent flocked to.
Only the most outstanding individuals could cultivate here.
Beside Li Luo, Yan Changsheng and Su Ying also gazed at these familiar scenes with reminiscence and complex emotions. In these long years, they could only dredge up these images from the depths of their memories.
“The sect ruins weren’t destroyed. It seems something terrible happened here in the final moments,” Li Luo suddenly said.
The destruction of the Wuxiang Holy Sect was instantaneous.
Originally, there should have been many powerful sect members here, but they seemed to have been completely erased in that instant, along with the sect ruins being sealed by the dust of time.
What kind of terrifying power was that?
And now it seems that the reason for the destruction of the Wuxiang Holy Sect was perhaps the final confrontation between the sect leader, the source of all evil, and the Dark Sect Leader.
Under the all-out battle of these three terrifying beings, even a Heavenly King could only be annihilated.
A look of pain flashed across Yan Changsheng and Su Ying’s eyes. It was unimaginable how panicked and fearful the fellow disciples in this sect must have been at that moment.
“Let’s go to the Star Palace. That’s the most important place in the sect, and also where the sect leader cultivates in seclusion. Kong Wuxiang should be there,” Yan Changsheng sighed.
Li Luo looked up at the distant horizon beyond the sect ruins, where a magnificent golden palace stood amidst the clouds, overlooking the entire sect and the world.
Mysterious mist still lingered within the ruins, likely from the Misty Realm, adding to the tranquility and mystery of the site. These ruins likely
preserved unparalleled cultivation resources: elixirs of unimaginably high quality, spiritual waters, wondrous lights, and treasures, as well as numerous top-tier techniques for achieving the rank of Marquis, passed down from the Formless Holy Sect. These resources would drive any worldly power mad, but Li Luo had no interest in them at this moment.
These things were not the final answer.
Therefore, Li Luo did not stop and went directly to the golden palace. Before
the palace were long, immaculate jade steps, ancient runes inscribed upon them, radiating spiritual energy and a vast, surging power. *
Ding-a-ling!*
As Li Luo and his companions arrived before the jade steps of the golden hall, a clear, crisp bell rang out, shattering the tranquility of the ancient ruins.
The sound startled Li Luo, Yan Changsheng, and Su Ying, who all looked up sharply at the end of the jade steps.
There, the flowing mist was gradually dissipating, and a figure was vaguely appearing!
There were still living beings in the ruins of the Wuxiang Holy Sect?!
The bell continued to ring.
From the mist, a slender, bare foot with skin as white as snow emerged, a golden bell hanging from a red rope at the ankle, jingling crisply with each step.
The mist completely dissipated, revealing a petite figure standing on the jade steps, looking down at them.
It was a girl in red, her face radiant, a purple ring adorning her fair neck, her dark eyes filled with a lively spirit, yet also with an extremely complex emotion as she stared at the three below.
“Ah, Big Bird, Aying, I never thought I’d see you again.” The red-clad girl’s soft voice echoed in the tranquil sect ruins.
Yan Changsheng and Su Ying stared at the red-clad girl, their faces showing astonishment.
“Ling Shu?! You’ve been in these sect ruins all this time?!”
Li Luo’s eyes flashed. Ling Shu? Was that the red-clad girl’s name?
At this moment, Li Luo already knew her identity. Someone
who could call Yan Changsheng, a Divine Fruit Heavenly King’s Golden-Winged Roc, “Big Bird” was naturally someone of equal status and strength.
Therefore…
she was the last of the Six Formless Ones.
Ling Shu.
