Absolute Resonance Chapter 1424: Who's Here To Cause Trouble?

Chapter 1424: Who's Here To Cause Trouble?

Tenth-grade! Those words didn’t mean much normally, but they held an air of majesty and awe in this conversation. They represented the true peak of this world.

The charm and temptation of the very idea of a tenth-grade resonance had attracted countless Heavenly Emperors like moths to an open flame, dedicating their entire lives to achieving it.

"When chaos descends, genesis dawns. It is said that the tenth-grade resonance will eventually appear amongst the Genesis Seeds. However, no one knows who will be the one to become an unparalleled being who will bring order to this world,” Tantai Lan coolly explained.

"When chaos descends, genesis dawns. No one has ever doubted this saying, but the one who will eventually attain the tenth-grade may not necessarily be a living being from the ten divine continents.”

Li Luo was taken aback. What was she trying to say? If it wasn't a living being from the ten divine continents, then who else could it be? Li Luo was struck with a terrible realization, and waves battered his heart. He glanced at his mother in disbelief as he stammered, "A-are you saying... it could be an Other?"

Tantai Lan calmly replied, "The saying ‘when chaos descends, genesis dawns’ doesn’t specify that the one to bring the dawn will come from the divine continents. Could it mean the Others instead? If an Other gives birth to a tenth-grade resonance, then the chaos would similarly be resolved."

Li Luo's scalp turned numb at the thought. "In that case, the world would be destroyed."

"Well, humans only inhabit the ten divine continents. It's not like the Others would be annihilated," Tantai Lan said.

Li Luo bitterly replied, "That's what you think!"

Tantai Lan glared at him. "You brat, you're only good at deceiving yourself. Why can it only be humans who can attain a tenth-grade resonance and not Others? In terms of strength and foundation, the shadow world is greater than the divine continents."

"Doesn't the tenth-grade resonance require a Genesis Seed?"

"The Others are weird and unpredictable. They have existed for much longer than any human power. Would it be strange if they've hidden the existence of their own Genesis Seeds during this timespan?" Tantai Lan asked.

Li Luo's jaw dropped, but no words came out. Based on his experiences, it was truly impossible to predict what the Others in the shadow world were capable of.

"This also means that the balance could be upended at any time. Perhaps they will obtain the tenth-grade resonance first and end us," Li Luo lamented sourly.

"That’s very possible," Tantai Lan replied.

Li Luo was left speechless. The information Tantai Lan had shared with him was so high-level that even the average high-grade Duke probably wasn’t aware of this. Such knowledge served no good other than to demoralize people.

Perhaps it would’ve been better if he hadn't asked. Of course, while Li Luo was left slightly depressed, Tantai Lan grinned. "The reason I'm telling you all about this is not to demotivate you. I just want you to never forget that you now hold the power to possibly end the chaos in this world. In addition, while people know of the Genesis Seed, they aren't aware that the Absolute Resonance Seed can similarly pave a path towards the tenth-grade resonance."

Li Luo hurriedly replied, "Well, no one actually knows if this path will truly lead to success."

At this point, he paused and his voice lowered. "In that case, why didn't the last sect master of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect obtain a tenth-grade resonance?" ɌΆɴŎ?ÊȘ

Based on what Tantai Lan had said before, that person had surpa.s.sed all of his predecessors. Considering how strong he was, he couldn't have been an ordinary Heavenly Emperor either, right?

Tantai Lan fell silent before explaining, "That sect master did reach a step that was unprecedented. However, he didn't truly reach the tenth-grade; otherwise, he wouldn't have met his end that way."

"He was virtually invincible and yet he didn't manage to succeed... Since the sect master wasn't able to do it, I'm afraid I don't have much of a chance either." Li Luo shook his head with a wry smile. This was indeed an achievement that had stumped countless Heavenly Emperors and left them in awe. Its difficulty was in a different realm. Despite his personality, Li Luo was relatively self-aware. He didn't want to continue talking about this topic that was too far off for him to influence. After all, the pressure wasn't meant for him, a tiny second-grade Transcendent.

"Mother, I'm prepared to stay in G.o.driver City for another half a month before heading towards the Heavenly Origin Ancient College. I'll then make my way to the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da. Sister Qing'e has been all alone, and I can't remain calm like this." Li Luo quickly changed the topic. He didn't plan to leave immediately, as the northwestern border wasn't calm. Others would swamp over in a tide occasionally, and as the Grand Guardian General, leaving like this felt a little irresponsible. It would inevitably invite questions and affect Tantai Lan's name.

Thus, he planned to spend at least half a month leading the Five Guardian Armies to clean up the vicinity.

Tantai Lan similarly expressed her agreement. Li Luo had already grown up and wasn't a hairless brat anymore.

"There's no need to worry about Qing'e. When she left, I gave her two high-grade Mythic Armaments that we obtained in the n.o.bles' Battlefield. Even though the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da is filled with talented individuals, she'll be able to outs.h.i.+ne them with her prodigious abilities," Tantai Lan said in an attempt to console him.

"The only pity is that we didn't manage to obtain a light resonance Transcendent Art. Now that both of you are on the Path of Ascension, condensing a Transcendent Heavenly Throne requires a Transcendent Art as the foundation. Only then can it be stabilized and strengthened," Tantai Lan explained with a hint of regret.

These words caused Li Luo to feel a sense of excitement. This was something he would have to accomplish eventually, and if he could gain more experience in this regard, it would only improve his preparations.

"Can my Myriad Resonance's Dragon Fang Sword Formation become the foundation for a Transcendent Heavenly Throne?" Li Luo asked.

"The way I see it, it's still lacking just by a bit. Strictly speaking, it is only an Embryonic Transcendent Art and is still a distance away from a true Transcendent Art," Tantai Lan replied.

However, when she saw Li Luo's disappointed expression, she added, "However, the potential of the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation is immense and it greatly suits you. If you can resolve the issue of your fourth blank palace, then it might very well turn into a true Transcendent Art."

Li Luo scratched his head. It seemed like his fourth blank palace was the greatest blocker in his path of cultivation. He could only hope that upon reaching the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da, he would be lucky enough to find the Greater Acquired Resonance G.o.dly Forging Art. Otherwise, his path ahead could be severed, and that would be greatly depressing.

"Are there any Transcendent Arts that suit Sister Qing'e in the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da?" Li Luo asked.

"The Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da heralds from the Sacred Void Resonance Sect and contains a lot of its legacies. If the right opportunities arise, you may be fortunate enough to encounter one. However, every Transcendent Art is greatly desired, and even high-grade Dukes go crazy for them. In the n.o.bles' Battlefield, we once encountered a void remnant that contained a Transcendent Art. It was left behind by a King from ancient times. It attracted the attention of numerous Other Kings, and the resulting battle was cruel and b.l.o.o.d.y."

Li Luo paused. It made sense now why they mentioned that the n.o.bles' Battlefield was full of abundant opportunities. Even Transcendent Arts could be found there. That said, Dukes often wanted to avoid that treacherous place entirely, and in the Xia Kingdom, the only Dukes that were forcefully sent there were chosen through the death lottery. After all, not everyone was brave enough.

"I definitely have to pay a visit to the n.o.bles' Battlefield in the future," Li Luo thought to himself. Although it was a perilous location where Kings could fall, the potential opportunities there would be a great boon in his path ahead. However, he would first have to pay a visit to the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da.

"If the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da has an appropriate Transcendent Art for Sister Qing'e, I'll definitely do my best to grab it for her," Li Luo declared to his mother.

Tantai Lan nodded in approval.

"You don't have to worry about the Dragon's Fang Lineage's problems. The Other Disaster will not end anytime soon, but it also won't greatly affect us. I'll wait for you to return from the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da."

She smiled slightly at this point. "I believe that when the two of you return, your names will resound throughout the ten divine continents."
