Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1728

Chapter 1725 Jinlong Mountain, Lv Taiyi

“Captain Qi Huang, you clearly knew there was a trap in the Dragon Clan’s ‘Ten Thousand Dragons Returning Blood Sacrifice,’ but you didn’t warn me, nearly causing me to capsize.”

Li Luo, upon learning of the Shenzhou Association’s plan, jokingly expressed his emotions. After all, this incident had put him in danger.

“Captain Li Luo is a man of exceptional talent. You are the pillar of our Ten Divine Continents’ defense against the Dark World. Perhaps the entire world’s hopes rest on you. How could we sit idly by and watch you suffer?”

King Qi Huang of Light smiled and added, “The Shenzhou Association is constantly monitoring the Dragon Clan. If the situation truly becomes unmanageable, even at the cost of failing to hunt down the ‘Demon King of Desire and Joy,’ we will immediately protect your safety.”

His implication was that in the eyes of the Shenzhou Association, Li Luo’s life was more valuable than even a single one of the Ten Devil Kings, and they would naturally not use him as a bargaining chip.

As they spoke, the vast, pale face behind the abyssal rift at the far end of the sky struck again. Endless, cold ash fell, then condensed, ultimately transforming into a gray chain that stretched across the sky.

The gray chain, permeated with an endlessly eerie aura, seemed to bind souls. As it whistled down, the eyes of countless beings beneath the sky darkened, as if the life within them were being drained away.

Clearly, the “Deathly Demon King” of the Dark World hadn’t given up, still attempting to rescue the Devil King of Joy and Lust.

Qi Huang smiled faintly and extended his hand. A brilliant, dazzling light condensed in his palm, then expanded at an astonishing rate. In a matter of seconds, it transformed into a temple of light as majestic as a mountain.

The entire temple was gilded, flowing with the boundless and vast power of the primordial light. Within it, resounding Buddhist chants echoed, as if a divine being inhabited. This immense divine might swept across heaven and earth, completely dispelling the chilling aura emanating from the Soul-Binding Chain of the “Death Demon King.

” “The Celestial Gold Palace of Light, seals all demons.”

With Qi Huang’s whisper, the Temple of Light soared into the sky, colliding directly with the Soul-Binding Chain. With a resounding roar, a terrifying energy storm erupted, as if the very energy of the entire Xuanling Divine Continent was surging.

Under the impact of the Temple of Light, the Soul-Binding Chain, illuminated by the holy light, continuously melted and shattered.

“So powerful!”

Li Luolong’s eyes shone with solemnity. This King of Light, Qi Huang, was truly the most powerful being in the Ten Divine Continents. With this single attack, he had directly suppressed the attack of the Death Demon King.

“Clan Leader Zhen, join me in restraining the Devil King of Delight!” Li Luo then addressed Zhen Linshuang.

Because the previously severely injured Devil King of Delight had attempted to break free when Qi Huang attacked, they had to intervene.

Zhen Linshuang’s reflexes threatened to kick in upon hearing Li Luo ordering her around, but she forced herself to hold it back. With a cold snort, she opened her abyssal dragon maw, unleashing a destructive breath directly at the Devil King of Delight.

The “Dragon Ancestor Horn” on Li Luo’s forehead also shimmered with lightning, transforming into a thunderous dragon that roared out. With

their combined strength, the Devil King of Delight, who had just attempted to break free, was instantly suppressed, letting out a furious roar.

Li Tianji, Lin Miao, and the other powerful members of the Dragon Clan breathed a sigh of relief upon witnessing this scene.

Boom!

However, just when they thought victory was assured, something unexpected happened. The void behind Qi Huang suddenly shattered, and a gaunt, pale, skeletal hand emerged from it.

Endless black energy swirled around this gaunt hand, and within it, countless wronged souls wailed in agony. If one listened closely, it sounded like the cries of countless hungry souls.

Any living being who heard these cries instantly felt a pang of hunger, their eyes blazing as they stared at their own flesh, attempting to devour it.

Li Luo also noticed this, his face changing. From that gaunt hand, he sensed an oppressive pressure no less intense than that felt by Qi Huang, Zhen Linshuang, and the others.

Another Ten Evil Demon King!

And this one wasn’t attacking from behind the crack in the Dark World’s boundary wall, but rather, it had burst through the air from somewhere within the Ten Divine Continents!

Clearly, the Dark World was also using all possible means to thwart this hunt against the Divine Continent.

“It’s the Hungry Demon King who has long since arrived!”

Zhen Linshuang let out a deep dragon roar, attempting to block the “Hungry Demon King”‘s sneak attack on Qi Huang.

But the “Devil King of Desire and Joy” gave her no chance. With a shrill roar, its withered flesh erupted in flames, transforming into a terrifying flame of Devil Joy.

Under its all-consuming power, the restraints Li Luo and Zhen Linshuang had previously placed on it began to crumble.

“Damn it!”

Zhen Linshuang roared, restraining her strength and tightening her grip on the “Devil King of Desire and Joy” to prevent it from escaping and thwarting the Shenzhou Association’s plan.

Li Luo was about to attack, but paused when he saw Qi Huang’s calm face. It seemed he had anticipated this.

As expected, as the withered giant palm, shrouded in terrifying black energy, approached Qi Huang, the space was suddenly torn apart by a force. In an instant, a silvery-white light flashed between heaven and earth.

A resounding sword chant echoed through the heavens.

A mighty silver-white sword light surged forth from the depths of the shattered space, slashing directly at the withered giant hand.

Boom!

The sword light whistled past, seemingly imbued with an indescribable, terrifying chill. The withered giant hand, shrouded in black energy, was shattered into a cloud of black icy shards.

From the depths of the void, a furious roar echoed. A gigantic skeletal figure loomed, its eyes gleaming green, as if starving for countless years as it fiercely gazed at the space from which the silver-white sword light had emanated.

“Hehe.”

Within that space, a hearty laugh echoed.

“Hungry Demon King.”

“Lü Taiyi of Golden Dragon Mountain, I have been waiting for you.”

This laughter echoed throughout the heavens and earth, drawing surprised glances from countless powerful individuals within the Dragon Domain.

Li Luo was also stunned: “Lü Taiyi of Jinlong Mountain? Another ultimate triple-crown champion, with the surname Lü? Doesn’t that mean he comes from the Lü lineage where Qing’er is?”

The foundation of Jinlong Mountain is indeed far beyond the reach of ordinary Heavenly King-level forces.

Li Luo looked at the spatial crack and saw endless silver-white sword light pouring out from it, forming a galaxy-like torrent of sword light. Above the torrent, a white-haired old man, carrying an ancient green sword on his back, locked his gaze through layers of space on the “Hungry Demon King” hidden in the depths of the void.

Li Luo’s eyes suddenly moved, as if attracted by something, and looked behind the white-haired old man.

On that sword light, there was not only Lü Taiyi.

There was also another figure.

That beautiful figure was so familiar.

Li Luo was stunned, and then his heart was overwhelmed by complex emotions like a tide.

That was… Lü Qing’er.
