Chapter 1177: All-Beings Furnace, Ninth-grade Dragon Resonance

Dazzling blade strikes flew across the sky as quick as lightning, slashing the White Eyed True Devil repeatedly with indescribable sharpness and strength.

In response, the White Eyed True Devil waved its sickle around frantically. Its cries of pain echoed in the air.

Clang!

As their weapons clashed, it resounded clearly in the air. For a moment, the void around them showed signs of crumbling. Immense energy shockwaves flew hundreds of miles into the distance, nearly flattening the All-Beings Palace below.

However, Li Luo's eyes turned more serious with each exchange. The cold energy passing through his Dragon Elephant Blade had made the surging light resonant power coming from his body dim a little.

Clearly, the White Eyed True Devil had gotten stronger again!

Previously, it was already as strong as a second-grade True Devil. Now it was readily getting closer to the level of a third-grade True Devil.

This was likely due to it consuming the faces on its chest!

Li Luo felt a shiver in his heart. The plans of the All-Beings Devil King were really frightening. Even at this stage, the True Devil was still getting stronger. If it really managed to consume all of the remaining faces on its chest, it would likely transform into an actual third-grade True Devil.

At that time, Li Luo would not be able to slay it so easily even with the power of the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf.

"Hehe!"

Creepy laughter came from the powered-up True Devil. At the next moment, its body began to wriggle about, and two figures who looked exactly the same as each other emerged from the wax oil with white sickles in their hands.

The two figures were overflowing with corruption as they charged directly towards Li Luo.

Li Luo slashed down with his blade. Light resonant energy that was hundred thousands of feet tall flew across the air, and the two figures retreated hurriedly.

All of a sudden, another sharp cry came from the real body of the White Eyed True Devil. It had cut open its own belly with its sickle. Cold and creepy wax oil gushed out of its belly, then a white furnace with three handles surfaced.

The furnace was all white, with an extremely creepy air surrounding it. There were runes carved onto its three legs. On closer look, the runes were the mural of a sacrifice. Countless figures in a daze could be seen lining up and jumping into the furnace one after another. They had sacrificed themselves and turned into a white pot of human-skin wax oil.

Facing the relentless pressure coming from Li Luo, the White Eyed True Devil had finally revealed its ace.

"All-Beings Furnace!"

The White Eyed True Devil let out a sharp cry. It then stretched out its fingers, and strands of energy condensed on their tips. This energy had come from Li Luo, which he had collected during each clash. As it condensed, a faint shadow appeared in front of them. From a distance, the blurry figure looked just like Li Luo.

The White Eyed True Devil threw the figure into the furnace. Suddenly, the furnace flew forward. Then the void cracked open and the furnace mysteriously vanished in front of them.

The faces of Ning Meng, Feng Lingyuan, and the rest changed a little when they witnessed this. All of a sudden, a gigantic furnace appeared in the spot where Li Luo was standing. In an extremely strange manner, it trapped Li Luo.

Bang!

Li Luo's eyes were full of shock as he was now stuck inside the white furnace. He had not let his guard down for even a moment, but this was utterly unexpected. The spells of the White Eyed True Devil were mysterious and esoteric. It had directly transcended physical barriers and contained him within the furnace directly.

Li Luo looked at his surroundings. The inside of the furnace was covered with thick layers of white wax oil. In fact, the wax oil was layering upon itself at an alarming rate, speedily closing in on him.

In a certain way, the furnace was just like a stomach. It swallowed up whatever it wanted and slowly digested it inside.

Resonant power surged up within Li Luo as he slashed down with his Dragon Elephant Blade.

"Dragon and Elephant's Divine Might!"

The blade energy from the divine dragon and elephant materialized and shot out towards the walls of the furnace, cutting through many layers of wax oil. However, they quickly regenerated as if they were fueled by an endless source of energy. The blade energy gradually withered away.

Seeing this, Li Luo understood that ordinary methods would not cut it if he wanted to escape from this furnace.

"Kid, you're only at the Heavenly Pearl Tier. Why must you go up against such frightening opponents all the time?" the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf complained.

"I'm not the one picking a fight with them," Li Luo answered nonchalantly.

"Well, this is not the time for complaints. Let's work together to finish it off."

The Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf answered in an impatient voice, "This True Devil is not any weaker than me. If you hadn't converted my energy into light resonant power, you might not have been able to push him back so decisively. But you're now trapped in its furnace. Forget about killing it, you may not even get out of this!"

Li Luo laughed in response. "You can't do it alone. But with me, there shouldn't be a problem."

"Arrogant boy," the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf muttered.

Li Luo did not bother chatting with the Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf any further. He fell into deep thought as he watched the walls of the furnace close in on him. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he came up with a plan.

He took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the Dragon Elephant Blade. Then he concentrated his mind and activated the True Dragon Seed Pill within his body.

True Dragon Pill: Dragonification!

Roar!

A deafening draconic roar echoed in the air. Li Luo's body started trembling violently. Gradually, he grew larger and taller. Dragon scales appeared on his skin and his hands turned into sharp dragon claws.

His grayish-white hair grew longer at an astonishing speed, flowing down behind his back like a white waterfall. At the next moment, he started emitting waves of domineering draconic might. His aura was so strong that the inner walls of the furnace shook violently. Signs of melting began to appear on the walls by merely being in his presence.

At this moment, Li Luo had transformed into his fearsome half-dragon, half-human form again.

The Five-tailed Heavenly Wolf could sense the changes inside the bracelet as well. The aura was so strong that even it was a little surprised.

However, this was not the end.

As Li Luo felt the fearsome power cruising through his body, a soft and calm voice echoed in his heart.

True Dragon Pill: Dragonification! Endless rays of mythical light burst out of the True Dragon Pill within his body. The mythical light flew straight into his third resonant palace—the Thunder Dragon resonant palace.

It went directly onto the dragon that was lying amongst the thunder clouds. A moment later, the dragon let out a deafening roar.

Its body began to grow at an alarming speed!

The sea of thunder clouds could no longer hide it from view.

Roar!

Another deafening roar resounded before finally dying down.

The clouds rapidly shrank, then a majestic dragon's head emerged from the sea of thunder clouds. Its fangs were extremely sharp, reflecting the flashes of lightning.

At the same time, a faint shadow materialized behind Li Luo's back. It looked just like him; however, it was as large as a dragon with an extremely pressurizing presence.

The worldly natural energy in the surroundings went wild as the shadow sucked in the energy like a whale. In the end, all of the energy was converted into resonant power, and it poured into Li Luo.

This was... a ninth-grade Spirit Avatar!

Dragon Spirit Avatar!

At this moment, merely looking into Li Luo's eyes would overwhelm someone with a terrifying pressure. When he sensed the immense power flowing in his body, his lips slowly curled up into a smile.

Finally, he could experience what it was like to wield a ninth-grade resonance.
