Chapter 1535: Greater Void Resonance Flame

Greater Void Resonance Flame! Li Luo surged with emotion when he looked at the platinum flame seed. After many years of bitter cultivation, he had finally obtained the Greater Acquired Resonance Godly Forging Art and the Greater Void Resonance Flame! With this, he could finally refine his fourth acquired resonance. Now he felt like the Absolute Resonance Seed had reached a preliminary stage of completeness.

However, to reach the realm of Grand Perfection, he was still lacking something...

"The Myriad Resonances Golden Pill,"

Li Luo remembered. That was perhaps the last thing he needed.

Li Luo had a vague feeling that it was an indispensable item that would allow the Absolute Resonance Seed to reach true perfection. it might very well be the essence of what made it special.

However, the Myriad Resonances Golden Pill was hard to get even within the Sacred Void Resonance Sect. Only the one who stood out amongst the Legacy Sacred Sons and was confirmed to be the next Sect Master would manage to obtain it.

That said, Li Luo didn't have any methods to obtain the Myriad Resonances Golden Pill at the moment. He would have to look for other opportunities in the future. At the very least, finding the refining method would be sufficient.

With these thoughts in mind, Li Luo realized that the Absolute Resonance Halo was beginning to spin uncontrollably, and a mysterious roar echoed out from his body.

He could then sense a devouring force being transmitted to the outside world.

When he opened his eyes, he looked at the target of the devouring force, and his expression stiffened. It was none other than where the Divine Fruit crystal resonance was located.

"Calm down! Can't get myself killed..."

Li Luo was so frightened that cold sweat beaded on his forehead. He tried his best to suppress the urges of the Absolute Resonance Halo. That was a joke, right? Even the Heavenly Emperors were fighting over the crystal resonance! It had produced a Divine Fruit, and with his current strength, he wouldn't live long enough to enjoy the fruits of his labor even if he managed to obtain this crystal resonance. The sheer undulations of energy emitted by the supreme ninth-grade resonance were sufficient to ruin him. Furthermore, the towering Heavenly Emperor corpse was also in the depths of the Celestial Mirror Pagoda. The corpse gave off terrifying energy fluctuations as well and was capable of stopping any Duke in their tracks.

Despite Li Luo's rationality, the Absolute Resonance Halo felt a deep desire for it and continued to roar as it erupted with a strange power. This power was capable of traversing the void and influencing the Divine Fruit crystal resonance. The resonance had been floating towards the bluestone seal until now, but its speed quickly dwindled thanks to the mysterious force.

"You actually dare to compete against the Sect Master's seal for the crystal resonance? Are you crazy?"

Li Luo was literally shaking in his boots at the moment. That said, he also understood in his heart that obtaining the Greater Acquired Resonance Godly Forging Art signified that he had successfully obtained the position of Legacy Sacred Son. From a certain point of view, he had truly become a candidate for the Sect Master position.

With such an important position, the bluestone seal had no way to suppress him.

Putting it into perspective, Li Luo was now like a crown prince, whereas the bluestone seal was merely an imperial seal and the one wielding it was a trusted eunuch, but not the emperor himself.

"Hmph!" This development was discovered by the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor instantly, and fury blazed within its eyes. It could clearly sense that the authority held by the bluestone seal had separated into two.

It was because of this that Li Luo was capable of pulling the Divine Fruit crystal resonance in his direction.

"You're just an ant, yet you dare to act presumptuously?" With a thought, the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor caused its power to descend from the skies, adding onto the power emitted by the bluestone seal. Since both parties had equal authority, he would just suppress the opponent with force. After all, Li Luo was far, far weaker than him.

With the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor taking an active role, the light coming from the bluestone seal surged, causing the crystal resonance to move in its direction again.

When Li Luo saw this, he didn't know whether to sigh in relief or to feel disappointed.

Trying to compete against a Heavenly Emperor for a treasure was a little too stressful.

Just as Li Luo heaved a sigh of relief, Jiang Qing'e suddenly piped up. "Let me help you."

She stretched her slender hand out and grabbed Li Luo's palm, interlocking their fingers.

"Huh?" Li Luo had barely snapped out of his daze, though to his surprise, the Absolute Resonance Halo started spinning happily when Jiang Qing'e grabbed his hand, as though it had gained a special level of authority. While he lacked strength, he certainly didn't lack authority in the Celestial Mirror Pagoda! With Jiang Qing'e's authority and Li Luo's position as a Legacy Sacred Son, a surprising result came about. The Divine Fruit crystal resonance stopped in its tracks and slowly started to drift towards Li Luo yet again. This development left Li Luo surprised.

He glanced at Jiang Qing'e, and his expression turned complex. "Could it be that you're the legendary Sect Master's progeny?"

Perhaps only with the addition of such a person could they suppress the influence a Heavenly Emperor had over the crystal resonance.

"I don't know." Jiang Qing'e shook her head. Li Luo wanted to find Wang Taixi and ask him if he knew of Jiang Qing'e's true identity. However, looking at how much strife was going on all around them, he abandoned that thought.

While Li Luo was going through all of his in his head, the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor had become increasingly incensed. It had not expected that a Heavenly Emperor like itself would be unable to compete with two mere Dukes! However, strictly speaking, it wasn't directly fighting against the duo. Instead, it was a competition over the authority held within the Sacred Void Resonance Sect and its rules. Unless it chose to destroy everything, including the Celestial Mirror Pagoda itself and the Divine Fruit crystal resonance along with the couple, it was subject to the limitations within the area. The Emptiness Heavenly Emperor almost wanted to flip the table over at this point, but the Cloud Heavenly Emperor was preventing it from doing so.

"Moths flying into the flame. You're seeking death. If you want the Divine Fruit crystal resonance so badly, I'll give it to you."

However, the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor wasn't an easy opponent to deal with. Since he didn't have the advantage in terms of authority, he stopped the bluestone seal.

Now that the bluestone seal was no longer attempting to capture the crystal resonance, the crystal resonance paused in the depths of the void. Instead, Li Luo felt a terrifying attractive force surging from it, dragging him into the depths of the Celestial Mirror Pagoda. It seemed like the only reason why this hadn't happened earlier was because of the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor's interference!

Li Luo's expression turned horrified. The depths of the pagoda contained the Heavenly Emperor's remains, and just the remnant undulations of power emanating from the corpse would wipe him out in an instant. This was the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor's plan!

Li Luo shot off like a cannonball against his will, still holding Jiang Qing'e's hand tightly. Thus, the two of them were pulled along, circulating all of their resonant power in an attempt to stabilize themselves, but it was to no avail. The two could only stare blankly as they were sucked into the unstable region surrounding the corpse.

When the Cloud Heavenly Emperor sensed this, his expression changed. He immediately waved his sleeve, causing violet energy to rush over, attempting to prevent the two from being sucked deeper.

However, grayish energy appeared as well, quickly negating it.

It was the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor's turn to disrupt things.

"Didn't you want to fight? Why don't we let those two go ahead?" the Emptiness Heavenly Emperor calmly said.

As the others watched with horrified gazes, Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e flew through the void at high speed. It looked like it was just a matter of time before they would collide with the danger zone and be annihilated in body and spirit.

A sigh then echoed out. The source was Wang Taixi! His figure had become extremely faint, and he stretched out his hand at this moment, forming a seal towards the Heavenly Emperor's remains. Everyone was shocked to discover that the Heavenly Emperor's remains that had been emitting unstable waves of power began to restrain and halt the emission of those waves! As a result, the zone of destruction also vanished.

"How's that possible?!" The Emptiness Heavenly Emperor and the Cloud Heavenly Emperor's eyes shrunk upon seeing this. After all, Wang Taixi was merely a lingering spirit remnant and didn't possess much strength of his own. How could he havve forcibly controlled the Heavenly Emperor's remains?

Wang Taixi's expression was complicated as he glanced at the corpse in the depths of the void, and he sighed once again.

"Although I'm merely a spiritual remnant that should no longer exist in this world... controlling my own corpse for a moment should be doable."
