Chapter 0752: Black Dragon Shocks the Field
A commotion took over the training grounds.
The fifteen members of the fifth division were a little startled, and they started murmuring amongst themselves. Li Luo's suggestion had clearly shocked them.
Meanwhile, the trio involved, Zhao Yanzhi, Li s.h.i.+, and Mu Bi, were left in a momentary daze. They glanced at each other before looking at the completely composed Li Luo.
A puny Lesser Fiend Palace dared to say he could harm them with a single move?
They were an entire large tier above him.
They far surpa.s.sed Li Luo in terms of both resonant power and physical resilience.
However, they did not think that Li Luo was a fool. He definitely had some move which he was fully confident in. He was by no means reckless and incompetent.
This was to say that he had some special power.
One that could threaten them.
Zhao Yanzhi bit her lip, and a thoughtful look flashed through her seductive eyes. This new sub leader was clearly looking to subdue their wild aspirations and had thus dangled bait before them.
This was a great opportunity.
Although she didn't know what Li Luo was going to rely on, his demeanor was truly commendable. As was expected of the Hall Master's son...
If he had been born in the Dragon's Fang Lineage with his exceptional talent, he would truly have become the leader amongst the four Banners in the Dragon's Fang Lineage by now, directly contesting the other lineages.
The three continued to look at each other. They had fought against each other for a long time, so they had a good understanding of their own strengths. Thus, they made a decision quickly. Since this was a condition Li Luo had come up with, they would have to accept his challenge if they wanted to regain control of the initiative.
Eventually, the st.u.r.dy Mu Bi that was like a living construct stepped forward.
He had an eighth-grade metal resonance and was the strongest defensively. Since Li Luo dared to suggest this, it meant that he possessed an exceptional killing move, and thus Mu Bi was the best suited for this challenge.
Mu Bi vaulted atop the platform, and when he landed, the ground trembled before him as his heroic voice reverberated. "Since the sub leader dares to challenge me with his Lesser Fiend Palace Tier strength, I'm afraid no one would listen to me again if we don't respond to it. Regardless of the result, I am at least convinced of the sub leader's courage."
Taking a step forward, dense, gray resonant power surged forth and enveloped him, his body gradually growing in size. A brief moment later, he turned into a three-meter-tall mini giant.
At the same time, countless silver lines could be seen glowing underneath his skin, forming silver patches on his body.
An indomitable and imposing aura radiated from him.
He did not act politely, directly demonstrating his full strength immediately.
Countless gazes from outside the training grounds were focused upon this developing spectacle.
Li Luo could feel an oppressive aura coming from Mu Bi, but his expression remained unfazed. The opponent was one large tier stronger than him, but it was nothing compared to the opponents he had faced before.
Whether it was Pei Hao or Shen Jinxiao, despite having borrowed external aid, he still had to endure their superior presences with his own body.
Facing off against a Silver Fiend wasn't much in comparison.
Li Luo remained calm as he activated his resonant palaces. Dense resonant power surged out like a stream as water and dragon resonant power fused.
Dual resonance power!
The resonance power was channeled into his hands, emitting special fluctuations.
He formed a series of hand seals with lightning speed, leaving afterimages in his wake.
At this point, he could feel that the resonant power within him was being drained at a terrifying rate, and a formless and frightening aura seemed to radiate from his body.
The moment this aura appeared, Mu Bi felt it most clearly, being the closest to him, and his eyes shrank.
He could not understand how a Lesser Fiend Palace individual could evoke such a feeling within him.
Although his resonant power was much stronger than the average Lesser Fiend Palace Tier cultivator, there was a humongous gap between him and Li Luo.
“What is this feeling?
“Is it because of the resonance art he is activating?
“Is it a high-grade dragon-general resonance art?
“That wouldn't evoke such feelings within me...
“Could it be a Duke Art?”
This notion that arose within his mind seemed a little shocking. Didn't it seem a little impossible? Not even Zhong Ling had managed to cultivate a Duke Art, so how would Li Luo be able to do so?
As he continued to wonder, Li Luo's expression paled significantly and the raging resonant power within him had depleted by a good two-thirds.
He then unclasped his hands, which had previously been in the shape of a hand seal.
An extremely terrifying sense of pressure swept across the field like a hurricane, causing even the void to tremble.
Before everyone's flabbergasted eyes, an illusory, black banner arose from between Li Luo's palms.
Roar!
A draconic roar thundered throughout the entire training grounds.
Li Luo directly reached out and grasped the black dragon banner before emotionlessly swiping downwards at the void before him.
Duke Art, Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner!
Bzzst!
The void was torn apart and raging torrents of water could be heard from within the void. A moment later, black liquid poured forth.
A black river materialized, emanating boundless cold air that seemed to be able to freeze anything.
As huge waves crashed within, the river seemed to part, and a hundred-meter-long black shadow appeared. It looked like a dragon. The creature then roared, ascending into the sky as the black river coiled around its body like a black sash.
It floated in the sky above with the river as its support.
This eye-popping scene was witnessed by everyone, and cold gasps could be heard all around.
Even Zhao Yanzhi and Li s.h.i.+ had held their breaths in awe and fear. "Is this a Duke Art?"
Only a true Duke Art could incite such fear in people.
Li Luo had actually managed to cultivate one!
It was no wonder he dared to act so brazenly, directly facing off against a Silver Fiend.
Roar!
When the black dragon shattered the void, it directly suppressed Mu Bi.
Mu Bi's heart was in turmoil. He quickly roused all of the resonant power within him, and gray resonant power condensed in the void behind him.
He could not hold anything in reserve any longer.
"Dragon-general resonance art, Mysterious Metal Demon Bell!"
With a low growl, the roiling resonant power consolidated in a blink, turning into a ten-meter-tall gray metal bell. It looked st.u.r.dy and unyielding, giving one a sense of indestructibility.
This was the strongest defensive technique in his a.r.s.enal.
Dong!
When the metal bell took form, the black dragon lashed out under the fascinated and astounded gazes of the audience.
At that very moment, an ear-splitting ring boomed as though thunder had crashed in the sky.
In a sense, it seemed to herald the coming of a new era for the Green Nether Hall.
