Chapter 1131: Harvester

"Seven Evil Spirits."

Li Luo looked at the seven twisted figures in front of them. His eyes narrowed a little. Based on their sizes, they were not Greater Evil Spirits.

Nonetheless, seven Evil Spirits were like seven Lesser Heavenly Resonance opponents.

Resonant power surged up within Li Luo's body, and six radiant Heavenly Pearls appeared behind his back.

Strictly speaking, there were six and a half.

Right beside the sixth Heavenly Pearl was a small spark of light that spun and compressed world natural energy. However, it was short of fully materializing.

"Just one step away from the seventh Heavenly Pearl." He had not slacked off on his training during the past few days, so he was getting closer and closer to advancing in strength.

Frankly speaking, if he had decided to refine the Heavenly Crimson Pill that he had gotten earlier, he would have been at the seventh Heavenly Pearl Tier by now. However, he was planning to save it for a better opportunity to advance even further.

"I'm still not strong enough."

Li Luo sighed softly as he looked at the overwhelming corruption emanating from the seven Evil Spirits. If he were facing them alone, he would've had no choice but to retreat.

The difficulty of the mission was exceptionally high.

"Let me handle them," Li Hongyou said as she walked up. Her snow-white skin began to emit a light red glow when she summoned up her resonant power. A fragrance lingered in the air as she made her way forward, like she was a walking Vermilion Fruit that everyone was dying to have a bite of. Li Hongyou raised her hand, and a red ribbon that scintillated with wondrous light slithered out of her sleeve and curled around her like a snake.

Wrapped in majestic energy, the red ribbon vibrated gently, and a huge sonic boom reverberated in the air.

Without a doubt, the ribbon was Li Hongyou's treasured artifact.

Li Luo noticed the traces of a single violet eye on the ribbon.

It was a single violet-eye treasured artifact. For one of the top ten students in the Heavenly Star Hall, it was definitely a little weak.

Li Hongyou explained with a little embarrassment when she noticed Li Luo's gaze, "I've spent all my resources on cultivation. My resonance is not suited for combat, so I never got a better treasured artifact."

Li Luo sighed in his heart. Li Hongyou's father was an elder in the Dragon's Blood Lineage. Unfortunately, she had to leave him at a very young age and did not get to enjoy any of the benefits that came with such status. With only her mother taking care of her, getting into the Heavenly Origin Ancient College was the best they could do, considering their means.

In comparison, Li Luo had two triple violet-eye treasured artifacts with him. If he were to challenge other elites at the same level, one of them would be more than enough for him to completely crush them.

Even with the incident back with House Luolan and the disappearance of his parents, Jiang Qing'e had saved the best cultivation resources for Li Luo to the best of her abilities. Notwithstanding that, he was the Third Young Master of the Dragon's Fang Lineage, so he had received the best cultivation resources, Duke Arts, liquids and lights, and all kinds of treasures after coming to the Dragon's Fang Lineage. His background had truly provided him with every advantage possible. Damn it. It didn't feel like he had worked hard for any of his accomplishments.

"When we go to the Dragon's Fang Lineage, I will find a way to get you a triple violet-eye treasured artifact," Li Luo said. Her special resonance alone was enough reason for Li Luo to win Li Hongyou over to his side. She would be his capable right hand man after entering the Dragon's Fang Guardians. Therefore, there was no way he would treat her badly.

"As long as you can fulfill my wish, I don't really care about receiving treasured artifacts," Li Hongyou replied softly.

Her wish was to return a slap to Li Hongque for her mother's sake. Although this sounded childish to others, Li Hongyou was willing to sacrifice anything for it to come true.

After all, this was a promise she had made to her mother in front of her grave. It was the sole motivation that had kept her going all this while.

"Trust me, there'll be a chance." Li Luo smiled. The competition between the Dragon's Fang Guardians and the Dragon's Blood Guardians was much fiercer than the competition between the Twenty Banners. The Twenty Banners were just the starting point after all. The Heavenly Dragon's Five Guardian Armies were the real backbone for the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. Some members of the Guardian Armies would ultimately become Dukes, so the fight for cultivation resources there would be more intense than ever.

Li Hongyou nodded slightly. She looked over at the seven Evil Spirits that were about to make a move.

Immense amounts of crimson resonant power surged up into the sky and transformed into an enormous Heavenly Resonance Diagram. The manifestation of a Vermillion Fruit materialized in the diagram, causing vibrations in the worldly natural energy.

The seven Evil Spirits burst forward in an unusual manner. Corruption energy exploded in the air and countless strange whispers could be heard, attempting to corrode the duo's minds.

"Although I am not skilled in offense, I know how to suppress weaklings." Li Hongyou looked at the seven Evil Spirits with calm eyes. She raised her jade fingers, and the red ribbon shot forward like a snake. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into seven crimson rays of light and clashed with the Evil Spirits.

Bang!

Wild waves of energy exploded in every direction. Although it was one against seven, Li Hongyou managed to send all seven Evil Spirits flying back in this clash.

Following this, the seven crimson rays of light continued their attacks against the Evil Spirits. They were sent scurrying back in confusion.

She was not an offensive specialist, but she was still able to fight off opponents with her superior Greater Heavenly Resonance strength.

However, Li Luo soon noticed another problem.

Although Li Hongyou was able to push the seven Evil Spirits back, she was unable to kill them quickly. She could only whittle them to death very gradually using her overwhelming resonant power.

This was extremely inefficient, and her resonant power would deplete rapidly.

They were still quite a distance away from the Soul Summoning Altar too. If Li Hongyou used up too much of her resonant power here with no energy packs around to replenish it, it would spell bad news for them.

"Her resonance's offensive power is too weak," Li Luo whispered to himself. If it were him with such an overwhelming resonant power advantage, he could have finished the Evil Spirits off in the blink of an eye with dual resonance power. It seemed like he had to help out after all.

However, he could not dive straight in with all seven Evil Spirits so close together. Doing so would only end up causing more trouble for Li Hongyou.

Li Luo thought about it for a moment. He put the Dragon Elephant Blade away and jumped up. He landed on the rooftop of one of the houses on the side of the street. Then he tightened his grip, and the Heavenly Dragon's Sunchaser Bow appeared in his hand.

Although his resonant power was not as immense as Li Hongyou's, his ability to damage and kill off Others wasn't that far off.

At this point, the Dragon Sigil between Li Luo's eyebrows glowed.

Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body!

Li Luo pulled the bowstring back as far is it would go.

He then channeled the resonant power in his body into the mysterious Auric Halo.

Resonant power conversion! Light resonant energy!

At the next moment, a blindingly radiant light resonant power surged out of Li Luo's body. It condensed into an arrow of light energy on his bow.

The arrow contained endless amounts of light energy. It had an extremely pure and condensed form of purification and divine power.

When he formed the arrow, all of the corruption in the surroundings was cleansed.

The seven Evil Spirits that had been contained by Li Hongyou felt a sense of imminent danger. The "evil" characters on their faces seemed to have come to life as they struggled. At the next moment, the space around them twisted strangely and they burst forward to attack Li Luo directly.

Seeing this, Li Hongyou activated the Heavenly Resonance Diagram. Seven giant, crimson pillars fell down from the sky and locked the seven Evil Spirits in place firmly.

"Although it's tiring for me to kill you all, you shouldn't just ignore me completely right?" Li Hongyou whispered to herself.

"Good job, Senior Hongyou," Li Luo commented with a smile. His eyes turned sharp and he released the bowstring. The arrow filled with immense light resonant energy flew across the air and landed straight on an Evil Spirit's head.

Boom!

The light resonant energy detonated like a supernova. The Evil Spirit was completely eradicated in an instant.

This Evil Spirit was close to the strength of a True Seal-grade, so under normal circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for Li Luo to finish it off by himself. However, this Evil Spirit was completely locked in place, so it was surprisingly easy for him to finish it off with light resonant energy.

When he witnessed how effective his first shot was, Li Luo rapidly fired off more arrows filled with immense light resonant energy.

Bang! Bang!

After he had fired off the seventh arrow, Li Luo relaxed his fingers, which were now slightly trembling. He looked at the street in front of him. All the corruption was now completely cleansed and purified.

Li Luo was very pleased. Three of the seven Evil Spirits were equivalent to True Seal-grades and four of them were equivalent to Illusory Seal-grades. Nonetheless, they had all fallen to his arrows.

With Li Hongyou holding them down, they were like livestock waiting to be harvested.

Suddenly, Li Luo felt a vibration in the Ancient Spirit Leaf on the back of his hand. He focused his mind and a message appeared.

"Seven Evil Spirits slain. Seven B Merits earned."

Li Luo raised his eyebrows. He had fought so hard for a total of three B Merits on his way here. Now he had another seven. That was ten in total!

Ten B Merits were equivalent to one A Merit.

In other words, he had earned himself one A Merit already.

Li Luo's eyes lit up. He could completely dominate Others with his arrows of light. He was like an Other harvester! Although Li Hongyou was lacking in offensive strength, Li Luo could make up for it. With the two of them working together, it was perfect!
