Chapter 0787 – Nine Revolutions Art, Enigmatic Ocean Parting Ray

When the Nine-Colored Golden Deer manifested behind Lu Qingmei in a flash of brilliance, the glass rod summoned a rod shadow, and she flung it into the sky. It was as though it had transformed into a pillar that held up the skies, rousing all of the energy produced by the state of Harmony gathered by the Holy Scale Banner's first division.

At the same time, a terrifying pressure descended like a tsunami, wreaking devastation on everyone beneath.

It was as Lu Qingmei had said. She had given them an opportunity to win, but she would be merciless the moment she took action.

Thus, when Li Luo activated his Heavenly Dragon Lightning Breath, she similarly activated her own Nine Revolutions Art.

The energy that had condensed in the sky was like a stormy ocean filled with raging waves, smashing against the void incessantly.

At that moment, Lu Qingmei swung the glazed rod downwards.

It was as though the ocean was torn apart, and a massive beam of light shot out from the depths. The beam emanated a sense of tyranny, and all of the worldly natural energy was torn to pieces as it passed by.

A massive scar opened up in the mountainous forest beneath her when the ray of light arced past, the affected ground turning as smooth as a mirror.

Nine Revolutions Art, Enigmatic Ocean Parting Ray.

Li Luo could feel his hairs standing on end as he stared at the massive ray of light. Lu Qingmei was truly vicious, striking without mercy.

Even a late stage Greater Heavenly Resonance cultivator would have trouble blocking this attack!

The ray of light pierced the sky, and a few breaths later,it clashed with the surging dragonbreath.

BOOM!

A tempest kicked up in the collision, expelling force in every direction.

The forest was almost completely devastated, with countless ancient trees snapping like twigs.

Both banners remained motionless as they observed the clash of resonance arts. However, their expressions were a little different. Those of the Green Nether Banner were a little anxious, whereas those from the Holy Scale Banner seemed a little relaxed.

The clash of energies continued unabated for several moments.

At that point, Li Luo's gaze trembled. He could see the thunder dragonbreath being gradually split apart by the light's inevitable descent. Wherever the ray of light passed, the dragonbreath would dissipate and turn into shattered motes of light.

There was an absolute gap in strength between these two Nine Revolutions Arts, and Lu Qingmei unsurprisingly held the upper hand.

Although the enigmatic ray of light was gradually weakening, its momentum remained unhindered and it directly swept towards the area where the Green Nether Banner's fifth division was located.

Li Luo's expression turned solemn as he quickly channeled the energy obtained from Harmony to form a gigantic palm, slamming down towards the Enigmatic Ocean Parting Ray.

The light sliced through the massive palm manifestation like a hot knife through butter. Although it was weakened, it still struck the energy barrier protecting the fifth division.

Bang!

The ground beneath them shuddered and cracked.

Chaos erupted within the fifth division as a hundred individuals were grievously wounded and sent packing.

Li Luo had paid a significant price in the first frontal clash.

He understood that Lu Qingmei's Fiend Finisher strength surpassed him significantly. As a whole, her banner was on a different level as well. They were the vanguard team of the Holy Scale Banner, and their results outclassed whatever the Green Nether Banner's fifth division had achieved.

The key reason they had managed to hold on to Lu Qingmei's first move and not suffer a complete disaster was because of Li Luo's Nine Revolutions Art.

Any other Sub Leader in his position, including Zhong Ling, would have been left in a much worse position.

Lu Qingmei continued to look at them with a hint of serenity in her gaze. She did not bother with any superfluous words, as this was her personality.

She raised her jade-like hand, and a gargantuan amount of energy condensed like a hurricane.

Once again, a murderous but dazzling ray of light began to take form.

Clearly, she was intending to activate the Enigmatic Ocean Parting Ray once again.

This would bring an end to the battle quickly.

Li Luo sucked in a deep breath and similarly began to condense a torrent of energy akin to an ocean. There was no fear in his eyes as he clasped his hands together and formed a hand seal.

With the rising tide of energy, a small, black dragon banner began to form within Li Luo's palms.

"Oh? A Duke Art?"

Feeling the undulations from the black dragon banner coming from Li Luo's hands caused a change in Lu Qingmei's expression. There was a look of surprise in her gaze as Li Luo could utilize a Duke Art even though he was clearly only at the Fiend Palace Tier. This sort of talent was commendable. If Li Luo and her were at the same cultivation level, this would have been a fight to behold. Despite there being a hint of regret in her heart, she did not hesitate, only slamming her palm forward. The gigantic ocean of energy condensed above her once again parted, and a ray of light flashed forth.

This Enigmatic Ocean Parting Ray was even more ferocious than the previous one.

Li Luo's expression remained unfazed as the glow of two resonances surfaced and he fused the resonant power together.

Stirring up his dual resonant power, he activated the mighty black dragon banner.

When he focused upon the banner in his hand, he could also sense Lu Qingmei's frightening assault, which caused a pervasive sense of danger to wrap around his entire body.

However, his focus was solely placed upon executing the Duke Art with everything he had.

He could almost hear the beating of his heart while all of the dual resonance power within him circulated through his body like a furious dragon. Each cycle brought yet another surging bout of resonant power.

For a brief moment, Li Luo was so focused that he fell into a sort of trance. In this state, he seemed to feel that the dual resonance power he was channeling with all his might seemed to be beating with life.

It was as though the originally separate resonant power had truly fused into a single whole.

This fusion resulted in the creation of something magical.

Li Luo felt like the dual resonance power had transformed qualitatively and turned into something with life.

At the same time, he seemed to have reached a state of inner peace. Nothing could faze him, and he came to a realization.

This was the third realm of dual resonance power.

Sentience.

Li Luo had already reached the second realm of dual resonances, Becoming One. The current encounter had pushed him to the next realm, and he finally touched upon Sentience.

It had been a long time coming...

Li Luo's gaze was now filled with the incoming ray of light that pierced through the void. At the same time, the black dragon banner in his hand flashed and directly shattered the void.

Rumble! Roar!

As the void collapsed, the Underworld River's Black Dragon reared its head, and cold, black water gushed out with it.

However, Li Luo could clearly feel that the Underworld River's Black Dragon had gained a sense of spirituality and self-awareness.

It was like a living, breathing dragon descending upon the world.

It roared with absolute ferocity, echoing throughout the forest.

The black dragon wreathed in black water then crashed into the ray of light.

At the moment of collision, Lu Qingmei's previously unshaken expression finally gave way to a look of surprise.
