Chapter 1453: Great Boost

"Six resonances? What mighty resonant power undulations!"

"How could they be so pure?"

The resonant power that had burst forth from Li Luo immediately drew shocked gazes from the foes around him. This was especially after they had noticed the six different types of resonant power!

This was a very rare thing to see. At the same time, they could sense that his resonance grades weren't low either. It was no wonder he had managed to forge two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds!

Bang!

While everyone was taken aback by the sight, Li Luo quickly made his Transcendent Divine Mist rush into the skies, transforming into a gigantic dragon's claw that ripped through the world and directly collided against Yan Feng's golden palm print.

The heavens and earth rumbled, and the collision caused a massive energy shockwave to erupt all around them.

The dragon's claw was shattered, transforming into motes of light that filled the sky, but the golden palm print looked to be on the cusp of falling apart. Li Luo then condensed his Transcendent Divine Mist into a sword that sliced downwards and completely annihilated the golden palm print. Yan Feng's eyes shrunk when he saw this.

Li Luo was a second-grade Transcendent, which meant that he was only capable of competing against a fifth-grade Duke, normally speaking. However, Li Luo's resonant power undulations clearly showed that he was no weaker than a lower sixth-grade.

"What surprising talent! And the foundation he's built is amazing!" Yan Feng sighed emotionally.

Li Luo's abilities could be considered to be at the top even when compared against other Transcendents.

However, reaching the level of a lower sixth-grade Duke was surely his limit, or so Yan Feng thought. He had a good amount of confidence that he would still be able to win.

"Based on the resonant power undulations I’m releasing, I'm comparable to an average lower sixth-grade Duke,"

Li Luo similarly thought to himself as he looked at the sky full of motes of light. He had borrowed the aid of four resonant palaces with six types of resonant power, combined through his Absolute Resonance Halo, which allowed his resonant power to contain a trace of source origin.

Only by doing that was he capable of surpassing the usual three-grade advantage of a Transcendent to hit four grades.

Thus, the difference between him and Yan Feng was just a minor stage.

That said, he felt it wasn't enough.

He had reached the limit of purely relying on his resonant power, so he would now need to use external powers. At this point, his lips curled up into a smile. Yan Feng saw this, and he felt a sense of unease in his heart.

Li Luo then glanced back at Li Hongyou with a smirk. "Senior Hongyou, could you give me a buff, please? I think a quick win is best."

Li Hongyou grinned and nodded. She then bit her fingertip, causing fragrant, fresh blood to flow. Next, she started to trace lines in the air. Very quickly, a crimson seal flowing with golden light condensed. The dense fragrance it emanated caused the resonant power in one's body to liven up.

This was her Vermilion Fruit Godly Transformation Seal, a mighty resonant power augmentative ability. She pushed her hand outwards, and the Vermilion Fruit Godly Transformation Seal shot into Li Luo's body, immediately causing his resonant power to rise boundlessly.

Yan Feng's expression changed. He could sense that Li Luo was now approaching the point of an upper sixth-grade Duke.

"This is truly outrageous. It looks like the youths of today are simply too disgusting." The corners of Yan Feng's lips twitched slightly. He watched on helplessly as Li Luo reached the point where he was now almost comparable to him. He now understood why Li Luo dared to challenge him.

That huge gap in cultivation levels had been almost filled up by his tricks. Yan Feng had originally planned to rout Li Luo and the Astral Sage College's squad as quickly as possible. However, his plan would clearly have to change. His only choice was to struggle and fight, and perhaps use some of his advantages in order to overcome Li Luo and occupy this Domain Traversal Platform.

"I'll leave the rest of his squad to you guys. I'll handle Li Luo," Yan Feng commanded the rest of the mentors from Holy Turtle Sage College.

"Yes, Vice Principal!"

Boom!

At this point, they heard a thunderous boom and the sky began to rumble. They then heard the ancient roar of a dragon contained with the thunderclap.

Yan Feng hurriedly turned his head and looked at Li Luo's direction with uncertainty. The latter had ascended into the air, covered with a violet-gold radiance that spilled from his body. A sea of mysterious force pressed down upon Yan Feng from the skies. His eyes gradually shrunk in shock.

He could see that the violet-gold light coming from Li Luo's body had dyed the entire sky gold, and within that majestic light, a frightening pressure began to strengthen.

"Just what sort of frightening Duke Art is he using? Could it be a Destiny-grade Duke Art?" Yan Feng realized immediately that this was the only reason why a strange phenomenon would be unfolding in the skies above. Furthermore, it wasn't an ordinary Destiny-grade Duke Art either!

"How could the Astral Sage College have such a Duke Art?" His face turned gloomy. These Duke Arts were rare; even he, the Holy Turtle Sage College's vice principal, only had access to an upper Soul Ascension-grade.

"Don't let him complete it!" Yan Feng hurriedly waved his hand, and a black iron staff appeared in his grasp. The staff was covered in runes, and even a simple motion from it caused the void to shatter. This was the Ten Thousand Lakes Staff, a low-grade Mythic Armament. Yan Feng clutched his staff and heavily smashed it downwards. It immediately caused countless rings of light to emerge from the void. These rings of light gave off an esoteric feeling. If one were to look carefully, they would see numerous humongous lakes within the rings. At this point, an endless amount of water poured out of them like a tsunami, smashing into the violet-gold clouds with berserk power.

Bang!

A roar erupted from the clouds and a violent energy tempest was produced as a result of the clash. The void shattered like glass and rifts opened up through the skies.

At the same time, the violet-gold light that resembled clouds began to dissipate.

However, just as it began to vanish, a humongous creature appeared before everyone's shocked eyes.

It was a titanic dragon that was ten thousand feet long, its entire body radiating a violet-gold light, its scales engraved with primordial runes. The body of the dragon was long and winding, seemingly born from the spiritual energy of the heavens and earth. It had an ancient and noble aura, as though it was the king of all dragons.

What was most eye-catching was the fact that the dragon had nine claws. These claws were powerful and extremely sharp, glinting with the cold air. Even the void was ripped apart with a casual movement from them.

The appearance of this violet-gold dragon had undoubtedly caused Yan Feng to fall into a daze. Even the Dukes who were fiercely fighting in the distance paused to look over in horror.

In fact, they wondered if someone from the Dragon Race had entered the battlefield.

"What? Li Luo transformed into that?!" Yan Feng's eyes were trembling. This mighty Destiny-grade Duke Art could actually transform Li Luo into a member of the Dragon Race! At the same time, the draconic might emanating from his body caused even Yan Feng, an upper sixth-grade Duke, to feel an incomparable sense of pressure. Even the energy undulations from his six Duke Bergfrieds were suppressed.

How could an average dragon possess such strength?

Yan Feng had never heard of such a miraculous technique! His heart shook, but the staff in his hand struck out once again. A gigantic staff manifestation pierced through the void, accompanied by the sounds of crashing waves, as if thousands of lakes were simultaneously smashing downwards with incomparably heavy force. Meanwhile, the dragon didn't avoid Yan Feng's strike in the slightest, letting it strike its body squarely.

Bang!

The void around the dragon was obliterated, but the dragon itself was completely unharmed. The sheer aura emanating from its scales had completely diffused the power from that strike.

This sight caused Yan Feng's body to turn cold.

Li Luo had taken the strike head-on, but it had completely failed to harm him! Only then did Yan Feng understand that this dragon form was not a manifestation of energy, but a true physical transformation!

Li Luo then unhinged his maw, and laughter filled with immense pressure echoed through the skies.

"Vice Principal Yan Feng, did it feel good to land a hit on me?"
