Absolute Resonance Chapter 1134: Nine Heavenly Pearls

"Nine pearls?"

Li Luo's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He always had a deep and strong desire for it. Nine Heavenly Pearls was the pinnacle of the Heavenly Pearl Tier. One would need to establish an impeccable foundation and have access to opportunities that were beyond one's imagination to achieve it. Li Lingjing was the only one that he knew of that had managed to reach it.

Of course, people like Qin Yi and Zhao Shenjiang most likely had the resources and apt.i.tude, but they were ultimately unable to surmount that final step.

The nine-pearl tier was naturally one of Li Luo's goals; it was something he had constantly worked towards.

However, it was challenging.

He had stowed away his Heavenly Crimson Pill as he was waiting for the perfect chance to use it. He wanted to use everything for a last sprint breakthrough when the opportunity arrived. Looking at things now, he had already exhausted all of the source origin energy from his golden water pearls and yet he was far from the true nine-pearl tier.

It was too far-fetched to even call the ninth pearl an embryo, let alone form a faint shape!

The energy he had acc.u.mulated was barely enough to create a speck of light

"Senior Hongyou, do you have a way to do that?" Li Luo asked as he looked towards Li Hongyou with pa.s.sionate eyes.

Even though it was just temporary, his battle strength would skyrocket if he was successful. With that, he would really be able to pose a threat to the Greater Evil Spirits.

Li Hongyou nodded slightly. Without another word, she quickly bit her fingertip, and fresh blood leaked out. At this moment, a strong fragrance filled the air.

She waved her slender fingertip and drew on a crimson seal in front of her.

The seal slowly rose into the air. At the same time, golden rays of light circulated around it. With the appearance of the seal, the natural energy in the surroundings gathered in it.

The golden rays of light grew brighter and brighter.

"This is known as the Crimson Heart Golden Seal, and it can greatly boost your resonant power for a short period of time. However, it requires some time to absorb and activate. I will keep the two Greater Evil Spirits at bay whilst you begin the absorption process. After it is complete, we will see if you can pose a threat to them. Otherwise, you can help me hold them off and we'll think of another way," Li Hongyou explained.

Following this, she flicked her finger, and the Crimson Heart Golden Seal turned into a beam of light that shot directly into Li Luo's chest. Li Luo felt an explosion of immense heat in his body immediately. At the next moment, waves of energy surged up within him like torrents of water gus.h.i.+ng through his veins.

"What an overwhelming amount of pure energy!"

Li Luo was surprised. The Crimson Heart Golden Seal contained Li Hongyou's resonant power, but his body didn't reject it. Instead, he felt the desire to consume it.

Evidently, this was a special trait of Li Hongyou's resonance.

Li Luo quickly calmed his mental state and stood still. He made full use of his time to cultivate and absorb the external source of energy.

At this point, the small speck of light beside his eighth Heavenly Pearl began to gradually grow brighter.

As Li Luo was absorbing the energy, Yue Zhiyu, who was fighting with Greater Evil Spirits, could not help but shout out in shock, "Li Hongyou! If you had given that Golden Seal to me, I could've killed the Greater Evil Spirits here instantly! What did you give it to him for?!"

Li Luo was at the Heavenly Pearl Tier after all. It was already a blessing if he could stay alive in this situation. Li Hongyou pa.s.sing such an important boon to someone like him was just a waste!

Hearing this, Li Hongyou replied calmly, "You are much stronger than me. If I used the Golden Seal on you, the effect would be limited, so it's possible that you would be unable to kill the two Greater Evil Spirits off instantly. As for Li Luo, he's still at the Heavenly Pearl Tier. This will be of greater help to him, and its effects may not be any worse than when it's used on you."

Yue Zhiyu was furious at her reply. She was in a situation where she was being attacked by two enemies. However, she had gained a slight upper hand with the cleansing power of her light resonance. If Li Hongyou had given her another boost, she could've easily capitalized on the advantage and secure a victory. On the other hand, Li Luo was just a Heavenly Pearl. Even if he attained the nine-pearl tier, how could he be compared to her?

"Hmph, you reckless maniac. If we fail our mission, you'll be the sinner!" Yue Zhiyu snorted back at her angrily. She did not bother to bicker any further as she summoned up her light resonant energy and resumed her fight against the two Greater Evil Spirits.

Yue Zhiyu was not the only one thinking like this. Meng Zhou and Zheng Yunfeng from the Heavenly Origin Ancient College's Heavenly Star Hall also frowned a little. Zong Sha and a few others were at the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier. Despite their edge in numbers, they had been beaten black and blue by the Greater Evil Spirit. No matter how many tricks Li Luo had, he was even weaker.

Nonetheless, Li Hongyou had made her decision. It would not help to argue over it any further. They could only continue their struggle against the Greater Evil Spirits in front of them.

Li Hongyou was not bothered by their doubts at all. After pa.s.sing the Crimson Heart Golden Seal to Li Luo, her resonant power also surged, and a Heavenly Resonance Diagram appeared in the sky above.

A giant Crimson Heart Vermilion Fruit could be seen within it. Crimson powder floated down from it and collided with the mist, causing it to dissipate immediately upon contact. A certain fragrance lingered in the air, and everyone's minds slowly became clearer and their resonant power began to flow more smoothly.

Without a doubt, Li Hongyou had activated an area of effect support skill.

However, the effect clearly fell short of the Crimson Heart Golden Seal.

A sharp cry came from the front as soon as Li Hongyou finished activating her resonance. The strange and twisted figures of the two Greater Evil Spirits turned into afterimages as they barreled straight towards her.

Li Hongyou took a glance at Li Luo, who was focused on absorbing the Crimson Heart Golden Seal. She then flew in the opposite direction and lifted her arm. A red ribbon full of resonant power slithered out like a giant python, heading straight for the two Greater Evil Spirits.

Boom!

The shocking clash resulted in a thunderous explosion. The void shook repeatedly and a piercing sound rang in their ears.

Li Hongyou was facing off against two Greater Evil Spirits by herself.

However, it was clear that this was a little too much for her. She was ultimately not suited for combat. Despite being at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier, she could barely deal with one Greater Evil Spirit, so facing two meant that she would be at a disadvantage very soon.

"Let's go help!" Zong Sha looked towards two of the Illusory Seal-grade students who were in better condition.

The two students smiled bitterly. They stepped forward together with Zong Sha and a.s.sisted Li Hongyou from the side, trying to reduce the pressure on her.

However, they barely made a difference. Their attacks could barely deal any damage, so the Greater Evil Spirits disregarded the three flies and focused on Li Hongyou.

Jiang Wanyu stood beside Li Luo and watched him anxiously. Both sides had sent all their fighters into battle, but things had clearly developed into a stalemate.

Li Luo was their only hope of breaking out of this situation.

Although it was not very practical to place their hopes on a Heavenly Pearl Tier junior, Li Luo had proven many times that he was capable of creating miracles.

As Jiang Wanyu watched him anxiously, the resonant power within Li Luo began to grow stronger and the pulses of energy coming from him grew more immense. Even Jiang Wanyu was unable to endure the waves of energy coming from him, so she involuntarily took a few steps back.

The small speck that was supposed to be his ninth Heavenly Pearl began to grow brighter and was finally showing clear signs that it was materializing.

"What a guy he is..."

Jiang Wanyu's expression was complex. Li Luo's strength was clearly below hers back in the Spiritual Resonance Cave. However, he was beginning to overtake her by a formidable margin now. Reaching the nine-pearl tier was a formidable feat; no more than three people in the whole Heavenly Star Hall had attained it.

"The ninth Heavenly Pearl is beginning to take shape."

Suddenly, Jiang Wanyu felt an oppressive pressure emanating from Li Luo. He slowly began to open his eyes, and at the same time, the ninth Heavenly Pearl radiated a blinding dazzle.

The nine pearls slowly began to spin behind Li Luo, like a holy halo.

Jiang Wanyu was at a loss for words. Li Luo had finally done it.

Although it was temporary, his battle strength would definitely reach a surprising level.

However, the outcome of the battle would depend on how he utilized his newfound strength.

When Li Luo felt the immense resonant power circulating through his body, a look of ecstasy arose in his eyes. So, this was how it felt to reach the nine-pearl tier? It was in an entirely different league when compared to the eight-pearl tier.

Although it was just one pearl apart, the difference was like a gigantic chasm.

The nine-pearl tier was comparable to the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier based on the depth of resonant power alone.

In a certain sense, anyone who attained the nine-pearl tier could easily enter the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier too. All it was lacking was the Heavenly Resonance Golden Seals.
