Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1729

Chapter 1726: Seal the Devil King

. Li Luo hadn’t seen Lu Qing’er for about seven years, since their separation at the Sky Mirror Tower.

Amidst the silvery sword light, the girl stood gracefully, her features even more exquisitely beautiful than they had been seven years ago. Her skin, fair as snow, shimmered with a shimmering, frosty sheen, as if cast from icy jade.

Her form-fitting dress enveloped her graceful figure, like a snow lotus swaying in the frost. Her once black hair had long since turned an icy blue, each strand radiating with a frosty aura.

Her slender legs, exposed beneath her short skirt, shimmered in the cool air, like a piece of flawless jade.

But…

the pure white stockings that had once caught Li Luo’s gaze were no longer visible.

Li Luo’s gaze drifted to Lu Qing’er’s. Those once bright and beautiful eyes were now like a lonely, icy lake, devoid of a single ripple.

A wave of melancholy welled up in Li Luo’s heart.

Deep in his memory, the bright and beautiful girl from the academy seemed to be gradually fading, eventually vanishing.

“It’s Lu Taiyi from Jinlong Mountain. Qi Huang actually invited this old turtle out as well.” As Li Luo’s emotions swirled, Zhen Linshuang spoke with some surprise.

“I didn’t expect Jinlong Mountain to have a peak-level Triple Crown Champion,” Li Luo exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Linshuang scoffed, saying, “His peak-level Triple Crown Champion status is simply earned through years of hard work. It’s not considered true skill.”

“What do you mean?” Li Luo asked, puzzled.

Zhen Linshuang glanced at him, initially disinclined to respond, but ultimately spoke inexplicably, “Lü Taiyi is a man of great experience. His talent isn’t exceptional among his peers, but he thrives. He’s outlasted countless other unparalleled prodigies, yet it’s he who has managed to survive to this day.”

“And the reason he’s so resilient is because he possesses a rare astrological trait known as the ‘Longevity Turtle Aspect.’” “

The Longevity Turtle is an extremely rare ancient spirit beast, hard to find today. While it possesses no other abilities, it boasts a lifespan far exceeding even that of our dragon race.” “

Lü Taiyi relied on the longevity granted by this ‘Longevity Turtle Aspect’ to outlast countless prodigies and even witness the fall of a Heavenly King. Ultimately, he was able to gradually elevate his own foundation to the pinnacle, reaching the pinnacle of the Triple Crown.”

“So, Lü Taiyi didn’t reach the pinnacle by following the path of unparalleled excellence, but simply… through the accumulation of years.”

“But this is his limit. His lifespan is nearing its limit, so he hasn’t appeared in the past hundred years. But this time, Qi Huang had no choice but to summon him to hunt the Devil King of Joy and Desire.”

Listening to Zhen Linshuang’s detailed account, Li Luo suddenly realized something, and couldn’t help but marvel at it. The world truly is full of wonders. This was the first time he’d heard of someone reaching the pinnacle of perfection, relying solely on their own accumulated foundation rather than the path of unrivaled power.

If a Triple Crown Champion like Qi Huang wins by quality, then Lü Taiyi wins by quantity…

As they spoke, Lü Taiyi’s presence blocked the attack of the “Devil King of Hunger.” Qi Huang, freed from all worries, formed a fist seal and launched a powerful punch.

The towering Temple of Light exploded, completely crushing the “Devil King of Death”‘s attack.

Behind the abyss of the boundary wall at the end of the sky, a pale, gigantic face roared with rage. However, it was attacking through the barrier, so it could not exert its full strength. Instead, it could only watch as Qi Huang’s “Heavenly Gilded Palace of Light” roared forth, ultimately suppressing the “Demon King of Delight and Lust.”

Boom!

Sensing something was amiss, the Devil King of Delight and Lust let out a sharp roar of shock and fury. Its body erupted in a blazing crimson flame that burned the heavens. Millions of voluptuous sounds emanated from within. Within this, an immense flaming lotus took shape. Atop this lotus, a realm of joy emerged, countless n*ked figures entwined like fleshworms.

The terrifying source of lust surged like a bomb, poised to explode.

“Qi Huang, if you dare suppress me, I will detonate the realm of lust, polluting half of the Xuanling Divine Land and transforming it into a land of debauchery!” the Devil King of Delight and Lust threatened.

But Qi Huang looked calm and unmoved. He used the Temple of Light to suppress the “Demon King of Joy and Lust” and at the same time urged the vast source of light to form a holy flame, which continuously burned the Devil Flame of Joy.

At the same moment, his right eye suddenly blazed with dazzling light, as if a golden sun were slowly detaching from its socket.

The golden sun roared out, unexpectedly engulfing the Temple of Light and the suppressed “Devil King of Desire.”

Qi Huang had actually used one of his own pupils as a talisman, containing the Devil King of Desire and suppressing him for training.

This method left Li Luo in awe.

This way, even if the Devil King of Desire finally detonated the “Realm of Lust,” it wouldn’t be able to escape.

Clearly, Qi Huang had made thorough preparations for this hunt.

The golden sun contained the “Devil King of Desire” and slowly floated back, landing in Qi Huang’s right eye socket. The golden light within gradually faded, but a faint flickering crimson flame could still be seen.

A peak-level Triple Crown King was not so easily annihilated, especially since it possessed a strangely tenacious vitality. Therefore, even Qi Huang could only suppress it first and then gradually refine it.

However, this was already a truly inspiring and astonishing achievement for the Ten Divine Continents.

With the Desire Demon King suppressed, the Dark World’s “Ten Demon Kings” became “Nine Demon Kings.” Without a peak-level Triple Crown King, the Ten Divine Continents would be significantly relieved of the pressure they faced in the upcoming decisive battle against the “Withered and Flourishing Phase” of the Spiritual Phase Cave

Heaven. Every powerful being who witnessed this scene was filled with excitement, cheering excitedly.

Beyond the boundary wall abyss at the end of the sky, the pale face of the “Death Demon King” exuded an endlessly cold aura, accompanied by an eerie voice that echoed from afar.

“King of Light, do not be complacent. Soon, we will descend upon you completely. Then, I will suppress you within the Death Abyss, where you will suffer the ravages of deathly energy, transforming you into a monstrous being neither alive nor dead.”

Qi Huang smiled faintly and said, “I await your arrival.”

The pale face of the Death Demon King gradually faded, finally dissipating into a cold aura.

As the Death Demon King retreated, the Hungry Demon King, who had been confronting Lü Taiyi, also vanished into the depths of the void.

Clearly, after seeing the Desire Demon King suppressed by Qi Huang, the Dark World understood that their plan against the Dragon Clan had completely failed.

Qi Huang’s figure slowly descended, arriving before Li Luo and Zhen Linshuang. He cupped his fists in thanks, “This plan is entirely thanks to Clan Leader Zhen and Alliance Leader Li Luo. On behalf of the Shenzhou Association, I thank you both.”

“Now that we’ve suppressed the ‘Demon King of Desire and Joy,’ we’ll face much less pressure in the upcoming decisive battle.”

Li Luo and Zhen Linshuang’s celestial dragon forms began to shrink, transforming into humanoid forms after a few breaths

. However, Zhen Linshuang was so tall and well-proportioned that both Li Luo and Qi Huang had to look up at her. Zhen Linshuang crossed her arms, and in an instant, she looked like a mountain range. She snorted coldly, ignoring Qi Huang, likely still unhappy about being used as bait.

Li Luo hesitated, then asked, “How many supreme Triple Crown Champions do we have in the Ten Divine States?”

In these unusual times when Heavenly Kings are less prominent, the supreme Triple Crown Champions are unrivaled, holding the weight that determines victory or defeat in every major battle.

Upon hearing this, Qi Huang’s smile faded slightly, and he sighed helplessly, extending his hand.

“Five.”

“Even among the ten great divine states, with all our resources, we still only have five supreme Triple Crown Champions.”
