Absolute Resonance Chapter 1417: Guardian General Li Luo

Chapter 1417: Guardian General Li Luo

A man suddenly descended from the skies, landing in the midst of the battle platform before everyone's gazes. Some doubtful voices raised their suspicions towards this new character.

"Who is that?"

"Huh? Have you been living under a rock? That is the one who destroyed his Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried and slayed Qin Lian. That’s Li Luo! He's now one of the most popular people in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent."

"Li Luo disappeared for half a year to recover, which made everyone a.s.sume he would miss the opportunity to battle for the Grand Guardian General t.i.tle. Who would have thought that he would make it back in time? It looks like things are going to get interesting."

"Li Luo only has one Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried now and is just an upper first-grade Transcendent. If that one Bergfried allows him to beat an opponent three grades higher, he might be able to beat a fifth-grade Duke if you include his trump cards! Li Zhihuo, on the other hand, is an upper fifth-grade and is formidable in his own way as well. Thus, if the two were to fight, it would be hard to predict who would win."

"You're not wrong. Li Luo can't afford to destroy yet another Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfried just to obtain the position of Grand Guardian General. Furthermore, when he fought Qin Lian, he had just broken through. If he were to do it again, he might just die."

"That might not be the case. You don't understand the miracles that Li Luo has created throughout his journey. He is basically a demon, and all of his strong opponents were vanquished, resulting in him being the eventual winner."

Numerous discussions had broken out around the battle platform. Regardless, Li Luo's arrival had elevated the atmosphere.

Everyone was eager to see what made this young prodigy so special. Especially because he had recently risen to prominence in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent.

"Li Luo, you're finally here." Li Foluo's usually unsmiling face was now smirking happily. If Li Luo had not arrived today, the position of Grand Guardian General would have landed in Li Zhihuo's hands.

Then this generation of the Heavenly Dragon’s Five Guardian Armies would’ve been led by the Dragon's Blood Guardians yet again. If they wanted to change things, they would have to wait for the next generation.

"Here, have it. From now on, you're the Dragon's Fang Guardian General." Li Foluo didn't waste time and threw out a plaque to Li Luo. It was the Guardian General's plaque. Li Luo reached out to grab it, and his fingers curled tightly around it before he respectfully clasped his fist towards Li Foluo.

"Thank you."

Li Foluo was an upright individual and did not l.u.s.t for the status of Guardian General. He knew that with his strength, it would be difficult to bring the Dragon's Fang Guardians to new heights of glory. Li Luo was stronger than him and thus was more suited to the role.

Only in his hands could their faction ascend to the peak. Thus, Li Foluo willingly ceded his position.

"The one who has to thank you is me. Li Luo, promise me that you'll bring the Dragon's Fang Guardians' Light and Dark Spear back," Li Foluo said solemnly.

Each of the Five Guardian Armies had a treasure that was an upper-grade Mythic Armament. The Dragon's Fang Guardians’ treasure was the Light and Dark Spear, and it was the symbol of their power. However, during the battle between Guardian Generals a year ago, he had lost to Li Zhihuo and the Light and Dark Spear was thus lost to the Dragon's Blood Guardians. Every time they wished to use their own Mythic Armament, they would have to ask for permission.It was humiliating.

Li Foluo had thus spent the years bitterly cultivating, in the hopes he would one day retrieve the Light and Dark Spear from Li Zhihuo's hands. However, Li Zhihuo had always firmly suppressed him.

His heart was originally filled with despair, but Li Luo's appearance had given him a glimmer of hope. Their gazes met, and Li Foluo's eyes were even filled with a hint of pleading.

Li Luo nodded and smiled. "You can rest a.s.sured. The Light and Dark Spear will return to the Dragon's Fang Guardians today... and it won't just be that."

"Do your best, Guardian General Li Luo."

Li Foluo grinned before turning to leave the platform, landing amongst the Dragon's Fang Guardians.

From this point on, Li Luo was no longer a Grand Commander, but the newest Dragon's Fang Guardian General.

At the same time, heaven-shaking roars and cheers came from the direction of the Dragon's Fang Guardians.

"Guardian General Li Luo is mighty!"

"Guardian General Li Luo is invincible!"

Dragon Fang Envoy Luo Jiang then glanced at Li Foluo. "As soon as Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e joined the Dragon's Fang Guardians, I knew that you wouldn't stay as the Guardian General for long."

Now that he had relinquished his position, his usually tense expression seemed to have relaxed as he looked at Li Luo. He vaguely resembled the legendary figure that had once dominated the entire younger generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li many years ago. ṛÂ?ôꞖĘS

"I'm afraid the Dragon's Fang Guardians will reach an unprecedented peak in the future," Li Foluo said.

Luo Jiang was a little surprised to hear this. "The most glorious era of the Dragon's Fang Guardians was during Guardian General Taixuan’s time. He managed to defeat three other Guardian Generals and thus brought back four Mythic Armaments to the Dragon's Fang Guardians. That was the most outstanding achievement ever. Even though Li Luo is stronger than his father, could he possibly surpa.s.s that?"

Xia Yu and the other Grand Commanders were also shocked. If Li Luo wished to take the Light and Dark Spear from Li Zhihuo's hands, that was completely possible. However, breaking Li Taixuan's record would be a little too difficult because when Li Taixuan partic.i.p.ated in the battle for the Grand Guardian General, he was wielding the Light and Dark Spear. Li Luo did not have access to that weapon. Under the current circ.u.mstances, it would already be a stretch for Li Luo to triumph over Li Zhihuo, much less do more. Based on the rules for seizing the Heavenly Dragon's Mythic Armaments, if they wanted to obtain two, they would have to face both of the Guardian Generals together. If they wanted three, there'd be three opponents and so on.

Li Zhihuo was strong enough to beat Li Foluo, but obtaining any of the other Mythic Armaments was not possible. Otherwise, he'd have to deal with Li Foluo and another Guardian General working together.

When Li Taixuan obtained four Mythic Armaments for the Dragon's Fang Guardians, it was because he had single-handedly taken on three opponents.

If Li Luo wanted to break the record and obtain all five... he would have to single-handedly defeat all four Guardian Generals at the same time. However, just how strong were these four Guardian Generals?

Other than Li Zhihuo, the other three were all at the lower fifth-grade.

Meanwhile, Li Luo was a first-grade Transcendent.

Was he that tyrannical, capable of overcoming four fifth-grade Dukes? He couldn't be that wild... right?

As their hearts trembled, the referee had already entered the field and began to loudly announce the rules.

Bang!

At the same time, Li Tingyue, Li Jushen, and Li Boyuan took a few steps back, and boundless amounts of resonant power surged out of them. Mythic Armaments that emanated frightening energy undulations appeared in their hands.

Li Tingyue's was a golden mirror. Its back was covered with dragon scales flowing with esoteric light.

Li Jushen's was a gigantic golden bone hammer.

Li Boyuan was holding onto a dark-gold bugle made out of a horn. The roars of a dragon could be heard coming from it, shaking the void.

However, the most eye-catching one was Li Zhihuo. He stretched his hand out, and a ten-feet-long spear appeared in his hand. The shaft was mottled and covered in wear, but the tip was so incredibly sharp that anyone who looked at it would feel their heart stop.

This was the Dragon's Fang Guardians' Light and Dark Spear. At the same time, a violet-gold suit of armor appeared on Li Zhihuo's body. The armor was engraved with ancient dragon insignias that swam slowly across its surface. It gave off a majestic and boundless fighting spirit and stimulated one's resonant power.

This was the Dragon's Blood Guardians' Hundred Battles Platemail!

All of these were peak high-grade Mythic Armaments. Their might was uncanny, so much so that even the Guardian Generals were unable to wield them during normal occasions. It was only during the battle for the Grand Guardian General that they were allowed to utilize them.

The four Guardian Generals were then covered with scintillating light that came from their treasures. Meanwhile, Li Luo stood there with his hands empty, looking relatively shabby compared to the group.

"The compet.i.tion for the position of Grand Guardian General is also a battle for the Five Guardian Armies' Mythic Armaments. Whoever holds the most number of treasures in the end will be crowned the winner. Guardian Generals, please battle at will."

When the referee finished speaking, the entire crowd bubbled with excitement, but the battle platform was deathly silent.

Li Zhihuo was the strongest, but he wouldn't dare to lightly challenge the others. After all, he was looking warily towards Li Luo.

As the Guardian Generals chose to wait and see who would initiate the first challenge, Li Luo stepped into the center of the arena, raised his head, and looked at the four individuals who were emanating boundless amounts of energy.

Then his calm voice rang out. "Greetings, my four friends. I have a request which I'd like to invite your help with."

Li Zhihuo and the other Guardian Generals were staring at Li Luo closely.

Li Tingyue softly asked with a solemn expression, "I wonder, what does Guardian General Li Luo plan to do?"

A bright smile appeared on Li Luo’s handsome face.

"I wish... to take all the five treasures for myself."

At this point, two beams of light shot out of him, transforming into two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds that emanated the aura of perfection, suspended in mid-air like two gigantic suns that bathed the world in their radiance. Everyone's expressions fell.
