Absolute Resonance Chapter 1103: Blocked

Chapter 1103: Blocked

Li Luo suddenly took a step forward again as he stared at the steps for the Heavenly Star Hall in front of him. The spectators were shocked to see this.

"What's that guy doing?"

"He's still not satisfied with the Lower Hall of the Heavenly Star Hall? He's still trying to move towards the Upper Hall steps"

"This is too much. Who does he think he is? Are the Upper Hall meant steps for someone like him? Without a Greater Heavenly Resonance, his body is going to burst open from the enormous amount of energy gus.h.i.+ng in!"

"Is he tired of living?"

On the elevated platform, Jiang Wanyu frowned and whispered, "This is too dangerous. There was a student at the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier who tried to move up and receive the Spirit Tide in the Upper Hall steps. In the end, his body nearly burst open from the overwhelming energy. If he hadn't been attended to quickly, he probably would have died."

Doing well in this scenario had nothing to do with one's battle strength; it was more about their endurance and the durability of their body. If they could not handle the enormous surge of energy, their body would simply burst open like a water pipe that was too full.

Therefore, if a Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier student could not handle it, there was no way a five-pearl like Li Luo could.

The efficiency at which Heavenly Pearls refined energy was nowhere near the level of a Heavenly Resonance Golden Seal.

Li Luo could make it all the way into the Lower Hall steps because his foundation was really solid. However, he would have to pay a heavy price for taking another step forward.

Feng Lingyuan said indifferently, "He's not a kid. If there's a price for his reckless actions, he'll have to bear it himself."

Jiang Wanyu sighed helplessly.

On the other hand, Li Luo was completely nonchalant towards the countless gazes falling upon him. He was fully focused as the three resonant palaces within him rang vigorously, resounding in his heart.

His six resonances were surging wildly.

Li Luo had completely shut out all external interferences. There was only the continuous ringing of his triple resonances in his heart. Right at this moment, he felt something coming from deep within his body.

Li Luo's mental state followed that weak vibration and traced it to its origin. It was the mysterious Auric Halo deep within his body. The Auric Halo still appeared incomplete as usual. In the other three corners, his resonant palaces were glowing brighter and brighter.

The incomplete Auric Halo started rotating slightly at this point.

As it rotated, the enormous amount of energy that was originally flooding Li Luo's meridians seemed to be sucked into the Auric Halo by a mysterious force. This happened in the blink of an eye.

The speed at which it disappeared was like a giant dragon by the river, devouring all the water in a single gulp.

Surprisingly, Li Luo's mental state did not waver much despite this sudden development. He quietly felt the enormous amount of energy disappear into his body. Just like this, the resonant power in his three resonant palaces began to increase at a shocking rate.

The energy that had been absorbed by the Auric Halo had already turned into his resonant power.

This refinement speed was monstrous; it far surpa.s.sed even that of a Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier cultivator.

All of a sudden, Li Luo's heavy body turned lighter and his pace became faster. He stepped forward and rapidly climbed ahead.

The spectators that had been chatting suddenly went quiet.

Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched Li Luo climb the Spirit Tide with ease.

"Am I seeing things because the stress from the mobilization mission is too great?" someone whispered.

Wu Changkong and Feng Lingyuan were stunned by this sight. Even they were not able to run against this Spirit Tide with such ease.

What the h.e.l.l?

Nonetheless, Li Luo paid no attention to them. He casually walked up the stairs. The tide continued to flow down, and the overwhelming energy gushed into his body. However, as soon as the energy entered his body, it was rapidly sucked into the mysterious and incomplete Auric Halo and then directly transformed into resonant power for his three resonant palaces.

As this went on, Li Luo's resonant power grew at a shocking speed.

A drop of light began to s.h.i.+ne brighter and brighter under the five Heavenly Pearls behind his back.

Yet Li Luo did not slow down. After just a dozen breaths, he climbed to the spot where the top ten ranks of the Upper Hall were meant to go. He continued to take one step after another. Under everyone's surprised gazes, he reached the place with the rock.

That was the exclusive spot made for the individual that reigned unopposed in the Upper Hall, the first ranked.

No one had even managed to reach this location in years. The crowd was speechless. Everyone began to look over at Wu Changkong. At this moment, there was a flabbergasted look on his face.

No one had expected Li Luo to do something like this. He had managed to stand at the top spot despite the overwhelming torrent of energy.

How could his body handle that monstrous amount of energy when he was only at the Heavenly Pearl Tier?

On the highest platform, the three Vice Princ.i.p.als were stunned as well. As Kings, their eyes were much more discerning and clear. The huge amount of energy that had entered Li Luo's body was getting refined almost instantaneously. That speed was leagues above that of a Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier cultivator.

"He must be cheating with the help of some kind of item," Wu Yu said with a frown.

His speed of refining was clearly not normal.

"Vice Princ.i.p.al Wu Yu, since you are so well informed, I a.s.sume you know what item he's using?" Vice Princ.i.p.al Lan Lingzi responded calmly.

Vice Princ.i.p.al Qing Man laughed. "There are no rules for the Spiritual Tree Tide. The students are allowed to use anything within their means, as long as it's helpful to them."

Wu Yu remained speechless as he watched on.

Li Luo stood at the top spot before everyone's gazes. His expression was content as he sensed the rapid increase of resonant power within his body. In just this short span of time, his resonant power had grown more than what he would have achieved in over half a month of cultivation.

However, a thought suddenly flashed across Li Luo's mind. He looked up and asked, "Is this the limit?"

Based on his position, it did seem like the limit. However, he was not out of options just yet.

Logically, the nearer he was to the Green Wood Portal, the stronger the Spirit Tide. Looking at his current position, it was still thousands of feet away from the Green Wood Portal.

If he moved a little forward, or even to the front of the Green Wood Portal, the effects should be even stronger, right?

Even with the incomplete Auric Halo helping him, Li Luo's idea was frankly quite wild.

If he did this, would it be going overboard? It was the Heavenly Origin Ancient College after all. If he was too conspicuous, the other students could find it unsettling.

But... even if they were uncomfortable with it, how was it his business?

As he thought about that, Li Luo couldn't help but feel relaxed and took another step forward. Facing the rus.h.i.+ng Spirit Tide head-on, he rapidly moved to the top of the stairs.

His sudden movement left all the students of the Heavenly Origin Ancient College confused.

Could he continue to move forward from that location?

They had never seen such a ridiculous thing in their lives.

Under their shocked gazes, Li Luo continued to walk up. A few moments later, he was right in front of the Green Wood Portal.

Majestic torrents of energy gushed into his body at a terrifying rate.

As he sensed the explosive increase in resonant power, Li Luo could not help but stretch out both hands. His body completely blocked out the front of the Green Wood Portal, and the sixth Heavenly Pearl on his back steadily began to glow brilliantly.

In fact, a tiny light began to glow beside the sixth Heavenly Pearl as the crazy amount of energy continued to pour in.

As the spectators watched this scene unfold, they could feel their scalps tingling and were unable to maintain straight faces.

This was simply too ridiculous.

Who knew you could do such a thing in the Spiritual Tree Tide?!

This Li Luo guy...

What the h.e.l.l.
