Chapter 0948: Golden Dew Platform
Chapter 0948: Golden Dew Platform
The next day, Li Luo was standing on the pagoda, his gaze scanning the area below him. He noticed that countless figures were rushing through the plains, finally stopping before the closest group of pagodas.
These individuals seemed quite young and were full of vitality and motivation, likely elites from their respective power. All of them were here for the Spiritual Resonance Cave, hoping to gain some splendorous opportunities within.
"As expected of the inner divine continent." Li Luo sighed as he observed the large number of talented geniuses. Whether it was in terms of demeanor or presence, they were all head and shoulders above the ones he had encountered during the Holy Grail Meet.
The difference in the foundations of the two continents was clearly as vast as the distance between them.
This was to be expected though. The inner divine continents enjoyed a significant advantage in resources and were also the core of the world. Worldly natural energy condensed in majestic amounts in the air, and there were ample amounts of cultivation resources available. This was something that the outer divine continents could not compete with. Even if two people had similar talent, lacking resources would result in their development being as different as night and day.
.
At this point, Li Luo heard Li Fengyi calling for him as the rest were prepared to leave.
Li Luo thus turned around and started to descend the pagoda, eventually arriving at a humongous hall. All of the geniuses from the different lineages had already gathered and were clearly eager to get going, their eyes filled with anticipation.
The Spiritual Resonance Cave was not only a land of opportunities, but a place for one to establish their name in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. If one could stand out amongst the crowd, their reputation would precede them, and they would become a true leader of the younger generation.
Obtaining such a reputation was also appreciated by the powers behind them as more resources would be funneled into that individual. Even Heavenly Emperor powers required fresh blood to emerge to prove to the world that their prosperity would last forever.
In front of the crowd was also a group of Hall Masters that had been dispatched by the various lineages to escort them. This showed exactly how important this expedition was.
Specifically, there were two leaders amongst the Hall Masters.
The first one was Li Luo's eldest uncle, Li Qingpeng, and the other was someone who seemed even more imposing. When the other Hall Masters looked at him, they acted extremely polite.
It was the Dragon's Blood Lineage's Gold Blood Hall Master, Li Jiluo.
He was an upper eighth-grade Duke, and he could be considered to be the strongest Hall Master in the five lineages. There were rumors saying that he might become a ninth-grade Duke soon.
One should not underestimate the difference between the two levels. Countless talented and brilliant individuals throughout history had failed to take that step forward. By that point in their lives, most of them had already fully excavated their potential and were at their limit. They would naturally not advance every few years like they did during the early parts of the Duke Stage. Although one should strive to make it as far as possible, it was much easier said than done.
Ninth-grade Dukes were extremely rare as they were just beneath the almighty Kings. If they were able to create a miracle and take one more step forward, they would completely transcend and enter the realm of Kings.
A King was an apex existence even amongst the Heavenly Emperor powers. They far surpassed any Duke.
Li Jiluo was a reputable middle-aged man. His expression was calm and his body was built like a sturdy mountain. He gave off an unshakeable presence, and whenever his placid gaze swept past the young geniuses before him, they all felt a sense of pressure weighing down upon them.
As the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li's strongest Hall Master, he possessed significant sway... That being said, he was the strongest only because Li Taixuan had left the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. "The Spiritual Resonance Cave is about to open, and I’m sure you have seen the commotion outside. Everyone who enters needs to be wary, as it's a den of both snakes and dragons. Merely being members of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li will not be enough to ward off those who hold malicious intent towards you. Geniuses always fall whenever the Spiritual Resonance Cave opens, even those from Heavenly Emperor powers." Li Jiluo's calm words landed in everyone's ears.
Everyone's hearts trembled as they solemnly agreed.
"I'll stop with the unnecessary words and move on to what's important. When you enter the Spiritual Resonance Cave, the most important thing is to collect a spiritual liquid known as Spirit Resonance Golden Dew and use it to cleanse your Resonant Talismans. Spiritual Resonance Golden Dew is a special form of energy liquid that is unique to the cave."
He then raised his hand and created some images with his resonant power, which took the shape of a drop of golden liquid. The four elements were circulating visibly within the mysterious liquid, so the crowd found it very easy to recognize.
"The Resonant Talismans only provide the first level of access within the cave. Only with the aid of Spirit Resonance Golden Dew can you unlock the second level. The second level will then allow you to enter the Golden Dew Platform. Quite a few people are allowed on it, and at a specific time, the Golden Dew Platform will receive a baptism of power from the Spiritual Resonance Cave. Those who have secured a spot will have their resonance tempered and purified. If your luck is good and you have a solid foundation already established, you may find an opportunity for your resonance to evolve. When one's resonance evolves, its purity and grade elevate. Thus, everyone tries to earn a spot on the Golden Dew Platform. Based on our investigations, there are three platforms to choose from when the time comes."
Li Jiluo's words caused everyone's expressions to change, and unadulterated excitement could be seen in their eyes. Everyone knew how difficult it was to raise the grade of one's resonance, and even though spirit liquids and purifying lights could be used, the process was slow and there was a limit to how much could be used. Consuming large amounts would cause impurities to accumulate, and they would eventually seal off one's resonant palace, preventing any further improvement.
The Golden Dew Platform had the ability to raise the grade of one’s resonance almost instantly, a result that would require an incredible amount of spirit liquids and purifying lights...
"The Golden Dew Platform, huh..." Li Luo's gaze similarly flickered, and his heart started beating with excitement. His blank palaces allowed him to use unlimited amounts of spirit liquids and purifying lights. That being said, time was still needed for his resonances to be tempered.
He really wanted to obtain a ninth-grade resonance, but alas, he had neither the resources nor the time.
Thus, the Golden Dew Platform was something that greatly appealed to him.
"The Golden Dew Platforms have limited spots, so the competition for each one will be fierce. You will have to rely on your own strength if you wish to obtain one," Li Jiluo continued.
The crowd nodded in understanding.
"I have a question, Hall Master Li Jiluo. How much Spirit Resonance Golden Dew is needed to gain access to the Golden Dew Platform?" Lu Qingmei suddenly asked.
"Thirty drops," Li Jiluo replied. "Thus, once you enter the cave, your main goal should be to obtain as many drops of Spirit Resonance Golden Dew as possible. They can be found in places where worldly natural energy is most dense and abundant, and you will be able to sense them. However, the Golden Dew Platform is not the end objective—it can be argued to be just the start. It is only afterwards that the inner regions of the Spiritual Resonance Cave will open up. However, the situation inside is constantly transforming and unpredictable, which is why we have no information about it for you. The only thing we can say is that there are numerous rare treasures within, and they are capable of assisting individuals with developing a secondary resonance or even a second resonance."
This caused numerous individuals to gulp in anticipation. Secondary resonances or even a second resonance altogether? Such a treasure would shake the continent if it was found, and every Heavenly Emperor power would fight over it.
Such treasures would usually only appear in the Nobles' Battlefields, and no one had guessed that they could be found inside the Spiritual Resonance Cave. It was no wonder the Heavenly Emperor powers took advantage of this place and formed an agreement to share the location. If any sole party were to monopolize this special area, they would inevitably attract both jealousy and hostility from others.
"The Spiritual Resonance Cave is as amazing as expected," Li Luo thought to himself. At the same time, his evaluation of the secret realm created by the Sacred Void Resonance Sect increased. That ancient sect must have been extraordinary in the past. Perhaps even when taking every power in the world into consideration, the Sacred Void Resonance Sect was at the very top.
As a result, Li Luo couldn't help but think of the Acquired Resonance Godly Forging Art which he had cultivated. From a certain point of view, he was a part of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect, and the cave could be considered a connection. As Li Luo thought about all this, the sound of energy clashing intensified outside. It sounded like thunder reverberating throughout the land.
"The cave is about to open," Li Jiluo explained as the worldly natural energy in the vicinity shuddered, a sign that the Spiritual Resonance Cave was opening.
Everyone filed out of the pagoda immediately and stared into the distinct sky. The somewhat illusory energy portal was now absorbing copious amounts of worldly natural energy. After which, the portal began to open.
Boom!
As boundless amounts of energy congregated, the thunderous booms continued to ring out.
Countless gazes fired up upon witnessing this.
Opportunities were about to descend, and they would have to wrestle for them with their own hands.
After several minutes, the portal was completely open, and a mysterious fragrance wafted outwards.
Bang!
Countless figures rushed into the skies, exuding glorious amounts of resonant power as they directly dashed into the portal.
"Go! Your opportunities await. The rest will be up to you." Li Jiluo's gaze was calm as he waved his sleeve. Massive amounts of resonant power poured forth and directly picked up the crowd, sending them shooting towards the open portal.
