Chapter 1749: The Power of Extinction
"The Extinction resonance's power..." When Li Luo sensed the terrifying undulations rippling out of the black bamboo python staff in Li Lingjing's hand, his expression turned ugly. He instantly understood why she had turned out this way—it was clearly because of the Quasi Tenth-grade extinction resonance sealed within the black coffin.
Li Luo had been worried about Li Lingjing ever since he found out that she was with the Origin Reversion Institute. For the sake of strength, she had to survive tribulation after tribulation, having to devour her opponents to survive. On this point, he had to admit that she had been extremely tenacious, much more so than he had ever imagined. His cousin had been thrown into a pit full of individuals seeking to devour each other, and she had survived to the end, becoming the winner.
However, if one constantly walked next to a river, their shoes would eventually turn wet. If her opponent was the terrifying existence sealed within the black coffin, no matter how resilient she was, facing it was akin to an ant attempting to shake a tree. This thought caused the last remnant of hope in Li Luo's heart to be extinguished.
He couldn't imagine how someone with Li Lingjing's strength could've possibly survived an encounter with the extinction resonance, something that even Heavenly Emperor Jiang and Divine Fruit Heavenly Emperors feared. Perhaps Cousin Lingjing was truly gone. Sadness welled up in Li Luo's heart as his gaze turned sharp. Above him, his Transcendent Heavenly Throne rumbled, causing a mighty wave of energy to surge towards him.
Weng!
Endless amounts of majestic Authority flowed outwards, causing the void to shatter. A titanic violet-gold dragon claw stretched out of the depths of the newly created rift, so huge that one couldn't see the end of it. It blotted out the sky, enveloped with a murderous aura as it directly swatted towards Li Lingjing. Li Luo knew he couldn't underestimate her, as she now possessed the power of the extinction resonance.
Meanwhile, Li Lingjing's black, vortex-like eyes rippled slightly. A moment later, nine black Duke Bergfrieds appeared behind her, each one possessing ten pillars. Nine Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds! She was indeed a ninth-grade Transcendent! This sight caused the hearts of the soldiers of the divine continents to turn heavy.
The Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds behind her emitted onyx light that intertwined and condensed an equally majestic dark Transcendent Heavenly Throne. A halo of black light slowly expanded out of it, containing an indescribable kind of power that caused everything it touched to lose all of its life force. Even the lively worldly natural energy lost all spirituality. It was a halo of extinction!
Everyone watched Li Luo's humongous dragon claw created from Authority clash against the black halo. When they made contact, the claw began to dim at a rapid pace. The indestructible scales on it turned dessicated before collapsing into black dust that scattered with the wind.
Meanwhile, the black halo's Extinction Authority transformed into countless black tentacles that stretched outwards. In just a few short moments, they completely entangled the claw, eroding it into a shower of fine black dust.
Li Luo's expression grew solemn as he thought, "The Authority of Extinction is indeed tyrannical." They were at the same cultivation level, but Li Lingjing's Authority was a step above his. If they were to compete purely in terms of Authority, she would have the advantage. He understood that this was because the Authority of Extinction originated from the Quasi Tenth-grade extinction resonance.
Even the Pill Saint, one of the Void Resonance's Six Sons, had been completely humiliated in a confrontation with the extinction resonance in the Xia Kingdom. The main reason was because a Quasi Tenth-grade resonance was simply too overbearing. Although Li Lingjing only carried a small amount of its power, the sheer advantage of the resonance's grade gave her the upper hand.
Li Luo took a deep breath and his gaze turned sharp. The magnificent Absolute Resonance Halo emerged from the void behind him. The ten ancient Divine Seals began to shine brightly, akin to ten suns. The five resonant palaces within the Absolute Resonance Halo also began to rumble loudly.
Everyone raised their heads in horror when they realized that the entire sky looked like it was about to collapse. Layers of the void were constantly breaking apart as indescribably mighty sword energy flowed out of its depths. When the sword energy began to condense, it gradually took the shape of an ancient, glorious, but terrifying sword formation.
It was the Myriad Resonances Dragon Fang Sword Formation!
......
While the confrontation between Li Luo and Li Lingjing intensified, the corruption source origin fluctuations emanating from the Slaughter Devil King of Sin also rapidly surged.
Qi Huang wanted to take this opportunity to interrupt it, but he had failed. This was because a tremendous amount of corruption source origin had poured out of its body and formed a protective shield that resisted all attacks. However, as time passed, the surging corruption source origin from the Slaughter Devil King of Sin reached a peak and started to decline. This caused the experts of the divine continents to heave sighs of relief.
Clearly, even though the Slaughter Devil King of Sin had devoured the source origin cores of the three Devil Kings of Sin and the slaughter source origin produced by the battlefield, it was unable to make a breakthrough.
When it sensed the source origin undulations emanating from its body start to drop, the Slaughter Devil King of Sin frowned. How could it have failed after devouring three source origin cores from Devil Kings of Sin? It seemed breaking into the Ninth Transcendent Duke Stage was truly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
It raised its head and looked at the confrontation between the two ninth-grade Transcendents, its eyes full of fear. The divine continents and the Origin Reversion Institute had each produced a ninth-grade Transcendent, but the Shadow World had been unable to do so. Didn't this mean that they would be unable to fight for the withering glory resonance later? They had to get someone to reach that stage, no matter the cost.
The Slaughter Devil King of Sin tightly clutched the blood-red Nine Eyes Blade as a murderous look appeared on its gentle face. "Illusion and Madness, it's your turn now!" it roared. The Nine Eyes Blade let out a shrill shriek, containing a unique power to compel.
The Illusion and Madness Devil Kings of Sin were still engaged in battles against Jiang Qing'e and Zhen Linshuang respectively. When they heard the shriek from the blade, they were surprised to find that cracks had appeared all across their bodies. The two Devil Kings of Sin could sense the changes to their bodies, and they roared indignantly.
They wished to reject whatever was happening to them, but then their chests ripped open and two flesh seals appeared. The seals wrapped around their corruption source origin cores and flew off into the distance. After which, these Others comparable to Supreme Triple Crowned Kings spontaneously combusted.
The flesh seals were directly devoured by the blade in the Slaughter Devil King of Sin's hand. A moment later, the source origin fluctuations it emanated started to rise violently yet again.
To the horror of the coalition soldiers, a beam of slaughter energy blasted into the sky. The blood-red energy beam was boundless, visible a million miles away. A few moments later, it dissipated. However, a bone-chilling sensation crept across the soldiers' hearts.
Even Ling Xuan, Xiao Lingzhu, and the other peak experts were filled with fear. This was because a blood-red Heavenly Throne was now quietly floating in the air. The Authority of Slaughter was wantonly emanating from it, causing the battlefield to turn even more frenzied.
On top of the throne, the Slaughter Devil King of Sin hefted its blade, sitting like a supreme emperor of devils and overlooking the battlefield ferociously. Despair welled up in the crowd's hearts.
The Shadow World had managed to produce its own ninth-grade Transcendent! Could Li Luo single-handedly face both of them?
Bang!
It was at this moment that the worldly natural energy on the Heavenly Star Plains started to churn. This disturbance caused both Li Luo and Li Lingjing to turn their heads, their gazes focusing on the source of the disturbance.
It was the Spiritual Resonance Cave. The firmament had collapsed, and two vast powers wafted out of the depths of the void. Everyone could see that the source was a fruit. The withering glory resonance! It had finally shown itself to the world!
