Absolute Resonance Chapter 0793 – Fiend Dipper Energy

Chapter 0793 – Fiend Dipper Energy

The fervor that surrounded the crowd in the drill grounds diminished after Li Luo dismantled Zhong Ling's Blazing Scale Fist.  

Everyone was full of surprise.

On the Gold Light Banner's side, there were numerous confused individuals who looked towards Deng Fengxian for an answer. "Li Luo must have entered the Greater Fiend Palace Tier. And if all three of his resonances have been similarly tempered to the same tier, the resonant power he possesses will far surpa.s.s anyone of his tier. Thus, you cannot treat him as an ordinary Greater Fiend Palace Tier cultivator. Just looking at how dense and ferocious his resonant power fluctuations are, he doesn't seem to be weaker than any Silver Fiend. However, the key reason why he was able to take apart Zhong Ling's move so spectacularly is his uncanny skill. He is able to utilize resonant arts with finesse, and it looks like he has been involved in numerous battles."

"Then do you think that Zhong Ling will be able to obtain the position of Banner Leader?" some of the Gold Light Banner members asked. Although this was a situation for the Green Nether Banner's members, Zhong Ling had always treated Deng Fengxian very respectfully and therefore numerous members had a good impression of him.

Deng Fengxian sighed as he continued to observe the two figures on the platform. "Li Luo's methods are not weak and they far surpa.s.s those at his tier. Even a Silver Fiend might not possess the strength he has. However, Zhong Ling is a Gold Fiend and has chosen to give up advancing into the Gla.s.s Fiend Tier. He is attempting to condense fiend dipper energy to enter the Fiend Finisher Tier directly... However, I'm still not sure if he has managed to do so. If he has reached that stage, then the ending is more or less set in stone. Li Luo will very likely lose."

As the crowd continued to chatter, Zhong Ling's expression had turned gloomy. He had never expected that his direct attack would succeed in defeating Li Luo instantly, but he had predicted that it would at least force Li Luo to activate his Duke Art. However, all Li Luo had done was utilize his own dragon-general resonance art. 

Although a dragon-general resonance art's might was impressive, the two had a gap when it came to raw resonant power. Thus, by failing to injure Li Luo, he was already placed at a disadvantage as his Blazing Scale Fist had been taken apart completely.

Zhong Ling's gaze swept across a spot in the air where he discovered a slight trace of resonant power. He immediately sucked in a deep breath and belched out a mouth of crimson resonant power that was akin to a flaming breath, scorching a trail across the sky.

As a result, all of the resonant power traces Li Luo had stealthily set throughout the battlefield were completely destroyed.

"You're quite the sly one," Zhong Ling coldly stated.

He had used these traces of resonant power to form Water Mirror Arts and create the illusions that had managed to dissipate his Blazing Scale Fist.

"However, if you really think that these little tricks will allow you to gain victory, then you're truly naive," Zhong Ling said mockingly.

When he finished his sentence, Zhong Ling clenched his fists and crimson gloves covered his hands. Golden runes could be seen on them, forming a pattern made of flames. 

At the same time, Zhong Ling's body began to radiate a gold light, and golden lines seemed to writhe beneath his skin. Frightening pressure emanated from him at that very moment.

Gold Fiend Body!

This was a Gold Fiend’s strength. Their fleshly body would undergo the tempering of abstruse fiend lights and their physical strength, speed, and defensive prowess would far surpa.s.s that of someone at the Fiend Palace Tier.

"Did you think that I wouldn't make preparations for today?" After activating his Gold Fiend Body, Zhong Ling's gaze deepened with derision. 

The corners of the platform began to creak and shudder after he posed that question.

Li Fengyi and Li Jingtao’s expressions changed. It seemed as though they had discovered something.

On the Gold Light Banner's side, Deng Fengxian laughed lightly. "Zhong Ling is quite capable after all."

Under the looks of the crowd, Zhong Ling took a step forward, and at that very instant, everyone could see resonant power explosively surge out of him. Spots of light with deep colors similarly appeared around him.

The spots of light were like drops of molten metal, dotting his visible resonant power fluctuations.

When the spots of lights condensed, his resonant power suddenly seemed much more substantial.

It was like seeing a smaller version of the constellations in the sky, and as the stars absorbed energy from the world around them, the world seemed to be torn apart.

A indescribably sense of pervasive danger emanated from the stars.

And when the crowd saw this, a large commotion was stirred.

"That is... fiend dipper energy! Zhong Ling has finally managed to condense fiend dipper energy!"

"Doesn't this mean that he has finally reached the gates of the Fiend Finisher Tier?" 

"Although the fiend dipper energy seems to be a little shallow, it is what it is. The might of fiend dipper energy is terrifying to face, and it symbolizes the peak of the Earth Fiend General Stage. Zhong Ling being able to condense this energy means that there shouldn't be much surprise as to who will end up as the Banner Leader today!"

"It's a pity for Li Luo. I thought that he would bring about another miracle for us to watch."

"If Zhong Ling was only a Gold Fiend, then Li Luo might have had a chance. Now that he has reached the next threshold, Li Luo doesn't have any hope left."

As the crowd chattered, most seemed to have concluded that the Green Nether Banner Leader selection would quickly come to a close. 

On the fifth division's side, Zhao Yanzhi, Mu Bi, and Li s.h.i.+ glanced at each other before turning gloomy. The antic.i.p.ation brought about by Li Luo's successful defense was nowhere to be seen.

Atop the high platform, Li Qingpeng, Li Jinpan, and Li Rouyun's gazes shrank. On the other hand, the silent Zhong Yus.h.i.+ continued to lean back on his seat, evidently more relaxed at this point.

"You've actually managed to cultivate fiend dipper energy." Li Luo was similarly focused upon the stars behind Zhong Ling that were constantly absorbing energy. In contrast, he did not seem to be very surprised, only giving a sigh. He had expected this to happen.

Additionally, he couldn't a.s.sume that his opponent was useless, as he would improve over time too.

"Li Luo, why don't you just surrender gracefully? With your talent and strength, you should be able to s.n.a.t.c.h this position from me in half a year," Zhong Ling indifferently said.

Li Luo burst out in laughter. "Do you really think that you've won already?" 

"What else do you have? Are you going to rely on more fancy resonance art tricks?" Zhong Ling retorted.

"It is true that my previous move was quite theatrical. The key reason I did that was to demonstrate my skill at resonance arts. I don't plan to be overshadowed today," Li Luo honestly replied. 

Zhong Ling smiled coldly. "Your performance was wonderful. You may exit the stage now."

Li Luo shook his head. "Now, now, I can't do that. The main act hasn't started!"

Zhong Ling crossed his arms as he glared at Li Luo.

Li Luo then stowed away his Lambent Hawkeye, and the Golden-Jade Onyx-Elephant Blade once again appeared in his grasp. He then lightly caressed the mottled blade as the handsome smile on his face gradually receded.

"For my next act, I wish to put on a show for the audience."

His voice was somewhat loud, and he quickened his steps.

At the same time, all three resonant palaces in his body snapped into action as his triple resonant power surged out and circulated within his body. 

"Thunderpeal Avatar, Two Sonic Pulses!" Li Luo softly said in his heart.

BOOM!

The Lightning Forge within him blazed with activity, and thunderous booms crackled. Two mysterious booms scattered throughout his body, instantly amplifying his physical capabilities.

It looked like lightning was jumping around within his eyes.

"Divine Elephant Power, Level Three!"

The blade in his hand shuddered, and intimidating amounts of energy rushed out like a stampeding, ancient elephant. This display of strength was fear-inducing, even more so than before. This was the first time he had called upon the third level of this power.

Even with the Two Sonic Pulses amplifying his body, his skin still began to rip and tear under the immense strain. Fresh blood oozed out of his limbs, a terrifying sight to behold.

However, Li Luo suppressed the wracking pains that coursed through him, and his face remained emotionless. With the aid of these two powers, his strength continued to rise and attain new heights. 

This was still not the end.

Boom!

The two resonant powers in his body began to fuse and a mysterious trace of light began to surface. The fused resonant power began to flicker with spirituality, and it seemed to have come to life.

"Dual resonance power, Vestiges of Spirituality!"

Majestic amounts of resonant power exploded from Li Luo's body like an unstoppable tempest. A mysterious trace of light danced within it, and a domineering pressure diffused in every direction. The pressure coming from Zhong Ling's resonant power fluctuations diminished as a result. 

This caused everyone's expressions to change.

They could not believe that this youth wearing rags could burst forth with so much strength, enough to not lose out to a Gold Fiend!

How could this be?! 

"His resonant power..." Li Fengyi, Li Jingtao, and Deng Fengxian were all experts, so they could sense that Li Luo's resonant power had become much more lively and majestic.

It was completely different from what they had seen previously.

On the other hand, the Hall Masters who had now discovered the traces of spirituality within his resonant power had shocked gazes and their eyes shrank. This was something they were extremely familiar with.

This was the Vestiges of Spirituality!

Only those who cultivated dual resonance power to a certain realm could achieve this.

Although this was commonly seen amongst Dukes, it had now appeared in the hands of a Fiend Palace Tier youth! This was incomparably rare.

At the same time, Zhong Ling's expression also changed as he could sense a dangerous aura coming from Li Luo.

"The name of this show is called..." On the other hand, Li Luo continued to speak in a low voice.

He took slow steps forward, dragging his blade, which was lightly touching the floor and leaving a trail of sparks. 

As lightning continued to flicker within his gaze, a terrifying look was shot towards Zhong Ling, and he then raised the ancient blade atop his head. 

"A single strike fells the fiend!"

With that line, he chopped downwards.

As the blade arced downwards, the void was torn and the sound of gus.h.i.+ng water could be heard. The next moment, black water surged out of the crack.

Within the black water was a coiled-up black dragon that gave off a primal, ferocious aura as it dashed outwards.

Raising its claws, it blotted out the sky, and absolute terror was instilled in everyone around.
