Absolute Resonance - Chapter 1744

Chapter 1741 Faith

A vast sea of blood swept across, obscuring the sky and the sun. The astonishing source of slaughter raged, consuming all matter that fell within.

Boom!

The sound of a sacred bell echoed through the sea of blood, and billions of waves of divine light resounded

. The source of slaughter was ripped apart. Endless temples of light formed within the sea of blood, separating it. Before the temples of light, Qi Huang held the Divine Bell of Light and shook it, emitting waves of light.

The temple of light continued to expand, and faintly, it seemed as if divine light was condensing within it. The source of light within this divine light was so intense that it even possessed the power of a person.

Under the suppression of this magnificent temple of light, even the sea of blood, brimming with the source of slaughter, gradually calmed.

“Well done, a truly magnificent King of Light!”

A cry of praise echoed from the sea of blood. A column of blood shot up into the sky, and the figure of the Demon King of Slaughter emerged from it. It gazed at the Temple of Light that had appeared above Qi Huang’s head. The Light Origin within it was already powerful enough to threaten its own Slaughter Origin.

With its might, the Demon King of Slaughter would have been confident of suppressing any of the other ultimate Triple Crown Champions of the Ten Divine States. However, Qi Huang alone was able to stand up to it with his Light Origin. This strength was truly worthy of its admiration.

“Qi Huang, stubborn resistance will not change the outcome. You Ten Divine States have already given your all, but you can only hold off our six Demon Kings. The remaining three can penetrate your defenses and destroy the Ten States Qiankun Barrier. Without this barrier, our Dark World will have unimpeded access to the Spiritual Aspect Cave Heaven and seize the Withered and Flourishing Aspect!” The Demon King of Slaughter’s smile was gentle, but his cold words shattered Qi Huang’s heart.

Qi Huang remained calm, unfazed by the other party’s words. He simply replied, “Though our Ten Great Divine Continents are less powerful, we possess an unshakable faith in our defense. This is a faith that monsters like you, born from negativity, simply cannot understand.”

“Since the birth of your Dark World, you have clearly surpassed our Divine Continent in power, yet you have never been able to achieve your goal. Do you know why?”

Qi Huang slowly raised the Bright Divine Bell in his hand, its bright, dazzling light illuminating his face, a solemn and sacred expression.

“That’s because flesh and blood are fragile, but in times of crisis, there will always be those who step forward.”

The smile on the Demon King’s lips gradually faded, and within his blood-red eyes, a sense of endless slaughter gradually accumulated, ultimately transforming into a cold, cruel, and icy statement.

“Then I’d like to see if you, like other creatures, can still maintain this faith when they’re kept like livestock?”

The killer demon stretched out his hand and clenched it towards the sea of blood. The boundless source of slaughter surged forth, transforming from his palm into a blood-red blade, its blade covered in sharp teeth and marked with nine vertical scars. These scars wriggled, then slowly opened, transforming into nine blood-red pupils.

As the pupils opened, a terrifying source of slaughter erupted, ultimately transforming from the blade into a murderous blade light like a blood-red flame.

As the blade light drifted, the very void was annihilated.

“Qi Huang, although you are the strongest among the Ten Divine States today,… you are no match for me.”

“Your flesh and blood will be ripped apart by my ‘Nine-Pupil Blade.’”

The Demon King of Slaughter grasped his blade with both hands. In an instant, the blade flashed, and the space suddenly shattered. Only blood filled the horizon, and a mighty source of killing swept through, like a sword that slew the world.

The killing blade light annihilated everything, even the magnificent and sacred Temple of Light.

As

Qi Huang, Jiang Qing’e, Wang Xuanjin, and others were engaged in a fierce battle, a war unprecedented in a thousand years also broke out on the Tianxing Plain.

Facing the dark world’s raging offensive, the coalition forces of the Ten Divine States met it with all their might. The clash between the two sides caused the entire land to rapidly collapse.

Looking out across the sky, crowns of kings shone like stars, absorbing and exhaling the energy of heaven and earth, pouring out the source of their essence.

The Shenzhou coalition’s overall strength was clearly inferior to that of the Dark World, but they possessed numerous advanced formations. Some sects even relocated their protective formations and headquarters, transforming them into impenetrable fortresses.

These countless formations, miraculously connected, ultimately formed a barrier connecting heaven and earth. It was this barrier, known as the “Ten States Qiankun Barrier,” that repelled the Dark World’s numerous alien kings.

However, the situation was not entirely stable.

As the Killing Demon King had said, even if Qi Huang and his men intercepted six Demon Kings, three would still wreak havoc on the battlefield.

At this moment, these three Demon Kings were advancing towards the “Ten States Qiankun Barrier,” and wherever they passed, the Shenzhou coalition forces were unsurprisingly routed.

After all, the suppressive power wielded by the ultimate Triple Crown was too formidable.

Before the towering Sky-Bullet Barrier, a series of extraordinary formations intertwined, forming a gateway deep into the Tianxing Plains.

This was a crucial hub within the “Ten States Qiankun Barrier.” If it were destroyed, the entire barrier would be damaged, crippling the rest of the defenses.

Therefore, the Shenzhou coalition deployed heavy forces to defend this area.

Darkness reigned, with only the Sky-Bullet Barrier radiating a mysterious light, as if serving as a last resort.

Before the Sky-Bullet Barrier, towering formations intertwined, forming a fortress, a mountainous defense.

Atop a mountain, Yu Lang wiped the blade in his hand. His unruly face was now indifferent and weathered. The experiences of these years had long since honed this once wild and reckless youth into a strong man who gave people a sense of security.

“Mengmeng, don’t be afraid. When the fighting starts, just stay behind me. I’ll protect you.” Yu Lang smiled, looking down at Bai Mengmeng, who was crouching behind a rock.

Jiang Qing’e hadn’t intended for Bai Mengmeng to participate in this battle, but she insisted on following, so she had no choice but to take her along.

Bai Mengmeng’s face paled, her hands entwined tightly. Although she was stronger than Yu Lang, she had fought too few battles, and her personality wasn’t suited to it.

But she knew the situation, so she mustered the courage to follow.

However, she didn’t have the energy to talk to Yu Lang at that moment.

Seeing this, Yu Lang stopped talking and turned to gaze at a figure not far away, once familiar but now somewhat unapproachable. It was Lü Qing’er. She

stared into the distance, her eyes expressionless.

Yu Lang hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said with a smile, “Qing’er, long time no see.”

Lü Qing’er turned, her icy eyes reflecting Yu Lang’s features. She nodded, “Yu Lang, long time no see.”

Yu Lang breathed a sigh of relief. “I thought you didn’t recognize me. I didn’t dare come looking for you just now.”

“It seems you all thought I had lost my memory,” Lü Qing’er said.

Yu Lang gazed at her beautiful face. He hadn’t seen her in years, and she had changed drastically. Back at the academy, Lü Qing’er had been so bright and lively, but now, every word she spoke was as cold and indifferent as profound ice.

She hadn’t lost her memory, but she seemed utterly unfamiliar.

The once passionate friendship seemed to have gradually lost its warmth beneath that calm, cold gaze.

Yu Lang was a little sad, but he finally sighed. He knew the main reason why Lu Qing’er became like this, so he said, “It’s all the fault of that bastard Li Luo. Luolan Mansion is so big, it’s such a simple thing to give him a pair of chopsticks, right? It’s normal for men to have three wives and four concubines. I even asked Doudou before if I could marry more, and she actually said she would castrate me. Haha, I’m a king now…”

His voice became lower and lower, and in the end he could only shrug helplessly at Lu Qing’er’s indifferent eyes: “Just treat it as me farting.”

Lu Qing’er turned her head, looked into the distance, and suddenly said, “Here I come.”
