Absolute Resonance-Chapter 1497: Heavenly Dragon Seal

The two violet Thunder Dragons bellowed as their gigantic bodies swept past, causing the void to shatter. Their mere presence brought about a terrifying pressure, causing many of the elites to turn pale. Was this the final trial to obtain the opportunity? It seemed that it wasn't just anyone who could be bestowed with it.

An attack from such an existence would inevitably annihilate anyone beneath the Eighth Duke Stage.

"Zhou Jun has upper eighth-grade Duke strength, so he shouldn't have too hard of a time resisting the Thunder Dragon. However, will Li Luo survive?"

"A third-grade Transcendent might not be enough. If it was Jiang Qing'e that was here instead, she would've likely been able to keep up with Zhou Jun."

"It looks like Li Luo has wasted his effort."

The members of the slower squads murmured amongst themselves. The Thunder Dragons had wiped out any covetous intentions they might have harbored for the prized opportunity that belonged to the first position and thus, they paused temporarily to watch. Once the Thunder Dragons disappeared, they would then push forward yet again to be one of the few who could ascend to the next stage.

Hearing the gossip from the surroundings caused Fang Xingyun to darkly shake his head. Li Luo was young, but his foundation and potential were terrifying. He felt that the reason Li Luo had chosen Thunder Finger Peak was a precisely calculated move. Thus, he was definitely hiding some sort of trump card. Zhou Jun indeed had the right to be incredibly overbearing as he possessed upper eighth-grade Duke strength, capable of crushing all his enemies. Meanwhile, Li Luo was a monster in his own right, pulling out miracles again and again. As a result, Fang Xingyun felt it was best to not draw premature conclusions.

Before everyone's eyes, Zhou Jun glanced indifferently at the bellowing Thunder Dragon. then the trident in his hand shook and he roared. His voice reverberated throughout the heavens and the earth.

He formed a handseal with a single hand before dashing out. Terrifying amounts of thunder energy rushed out of him like a deluge, transforming into a humongous palm manifestation which crackled with violet thunder energy. Extreme Violet Thunder Tribulation Palm! When faced with a mighty assault, Zhou Jun retaliated with equal force! The thunder palm manifestation smashed apart the void and slapped the Thunder Dragon mightily. In that instant, every sound was drowned out by the literal clap of thunder.

An earthshaking shockwave imbued with thunder energy rippled out, frightening the squads behind and forcing them to mobilize their Duke Bergfrieds to resist it.

A few moments later, the thunder palm gradually dissipated and so did the Thunder Dragon, swatted to death with a single strike.

Although it had eighth-grade Duke strength, Zhou Jun was an upper eighth-grade. He had to put some effort in, but it was necessary to pass the trial.

"Mentor Zhou Jun is incredible!"

Looking at his invincible demeanor, the squad that he led from the Mythical Spirit Ancient College cheered.

Roar!

However, it was at this instant that a pressurizing draconic roar rang out from the other direction. When the crowd swivelled over to the other side, they noticed that Li Luo had vanished, replaced with a gigantic, violet-gold dragon.

It emanated a primal might that caused the void to shake!

Dragon Blood Atavism Art! Li Luo had already made preparations to activate this upper Destiny-grade Duke Art. The moment he took form, he immediately crashed into the Thunder Dragon barbarically.

Bang!

Seeing the two dragons collide in mid-air was a heart-stopping sight, and boundless amounts of thunder energy rained down below.

The violet thunder that made up the Thunder Dragon danced wildly on the surface of Li Luo's Heavenly Dragon form, causing the scales to break. Blood oozed out of these wounds, only to evaporate instantly thanks to the sheer heat.

Meanwhile, Li Luo's gaze turned ruthless as he looked at the incoming thunderbolts. He immediately opened his maw and savagely devoured the violet lightning! Everyone was shocked. With how violent and powerful the thunderbolts were, even Zhou Jun had opted to avoid taking it on with his physical body. Li Luo, whoever, had swallowed it?

Did he really think that a Heavenly Dragon's body was indestructible?

Boom!

A deafening explosion rumbled from within Li Luo's belly. Everyone saw injuries appearing from within his body, and there were even shreds of thunder energy coursing through them. Obviously, the thunder had exploded and harmed his body from the inside.

"Li Luo!" Chi Chan and the rest cried out in shock.

"How reckless of him! Why would he swallow something as destructive as that violet thunder? Hongyou, hurry and help him!" Cao Sheng quickly shouted.

Li Hongyou raised her hand, but Lu Qing'er suddenly stopped her. "Don't take action. Li Luo must have some sort of goal for doing this. Don't you know how he is?"

Her icy blue eyes were focused on the groaning Heavenly Dragon, her fists tightening due to worry.

As his squad worried over him, Li Luo's entire body was wracked with injuries, but no one had noticed that an extremely ancient seal had appeared within one of his eyes. The seal twisted and writhed, giving off a wild and primordial air. It was as though it had been carved into existence by the very first Heavenly Dragon that was born in ancient times. This was the Heavenly Dragon Seal!

Li Luo had only managed to successfully cultivate the Dragon Blood Atavism Art because he had condensed his Heavenly Dragon bloodline into the Heavenly Dragon Seal and fused it with his body. That was why his flesh and blood could take such a form. Thus, the Heavenly Dragon Seal was the mysterious reason why the Dragon Blood Atavism Art was even possible. According to the records of the Dragon Blood Atavism Art, when one cultivated it to the Grand Perfection Realm, they could form five Heavenly Dragon Seals. However, Li Luo had only managed to form one. No matter how hard he tried, he was unable to create another. This was expected. If the Heavenly Dragon Seal was so easily created, then it would not have been considered the hardest Duke Art within the Dragon's Blood Lineage to learn.

That said, there was something that had changed this time.

As the violet thunder rampaged within Li Luo's body, his bloodline itself sensed the danger, constantly repairing the wounds that afflicted him.

His other eye shone with violet-gold light, and mystical runes began to take form in a rough and twisting shape deep within the pupil.

This was the sign of yet another Heavenly Dragon Seal!

This sensation did not go unnoticed by Li Luo, and joy filled his heart. His gamble had paid off. It seemed that the requirement to create more Heavenly Dragon Seals was to place himself in danger, in order to activate the latent potential within his bloodline. Although the thunder energy was incredibly destructive, it also contained a certain sort of vitality, making it suitable to hone his bloodline.

This was why he had chosen to "recklessly" devour the thunderbolt! From the beginning of this fight, he had always planned to gamble on the possibility that the thunder energy could help him grow, bringing the Dragon Blood Atavism Art to the next realm!

However, the sheer unbridled might of the thunder energy had caused him to suffer as well.

That said, he had achieved his goal and thus the pain didn't mean anything to him. As the Heavenly Dragon Seal within Li Luo's eye began to condense, his originally titanic body that was tens of thousands of feet long expanded by thousands of feet. The aura he emitted had also become much more terrifying.

The violet thunder finally dissipated, and only Li Luo's massive frame remained floating in the air. Although his scales were broken and he was covered in bruises, seeing his growth allowed everyone to understand exactly what had happened.

"Li Luo just used the violet thunder to temper his body!"

"What a madman! Isn't he afraid of killing himself?"

"As expected of the Heavenly Dragon's body. If it were a normal individual, they might have been blown to pieces by this point!"

Lu Qing'er, Li Hongyou, and the rest heaved sighs of relief.

Li Luo himself was no different. His body was still crying out in pain, but he was ecstatic. He had managed to reap benefits from danger, and even though the second Heavenly Dragon Seal had yet to completely condense, the embryonic form had already been set. Just a few more times and it would condense completely.

Meanwhile, Zhou Jun, who was watching from a distance away, had a gloomy look in his eyes. Li Luo was truly brave. He had borrowed the dangerous and violent thunder to refine his own body. Even though he possessed the Heavenly Dragon's physique, he had only barely managed to resist it. His gaze flickered meaningfully, but he had already started shooting towards the Mirror Altar at the peak.

When Li Luo saw this, he began to chase swiftly.

The two squads hurriedly tailed behind them, spreading the burden of resisting the falling thunderbolts.

After which, the violet thunderclouds also began to shrink and a clear roar sounded out.

Six Thunder Dragons that were larger than the previous ones had descended.

The squads that were left behind felt their scalps turn numb and terror filled their eyes upon witnessing the apocalyptic creatures.

Li Luo and Zhou Jun would each have to handle three. When Zhou Jun saw this, he gave a cold smirk and quickly formed a series of handseals, then he released a burst of thunder energy.

Within that dazzling thunderlight, he began to transform, turning into a double-headed thunder eagle with a golden body. Numerous thunder runes also appeared on his body. It was as though he had fused with thunder, transforming into a thunder spirit akin to what had been attacking them! That caused a momentary lapse for the three Thunder Dragons, and they seemed to have lost sight of their target. After all, the creature before them felt very similar to them!

The two-headed thunder eagle then let out a shrill caw, containing a suggestion within!

Then the three Thunder Dragons that were focused on Zhou Jun turned their attention towards Li Luo with the intent to kill. Li Luo now had to single-handedly fend off six Thunder Dragons! Zhou Jun's gaze glinted with ferocious light. Didn't Li Luo wish to borrow the aid of the thunder to refine his body? Well, he would give him this grand opportunity! If they didn't directly blow him up into a grisly pile of roasted meat and bones, then he would truly admit that Li Luo was capable!
