Absolute Resonance

Chapter 0962: Meeting Qin Yi

It was not hard to find the massive, gilded hall that the rogue cultivators had mentioned. After Li Luo and Li Lingjing flew for around four hours, they ran into more and more other explorers. They had come from all directions, and judging from their trajectory, it was clear that they were heading towards the same place as Li Luo and his group.

Without a doubt, the news of the gilded hall had spread all over the place.

However, this was also a sign that it really existed.

Li Luo and Li Lingjing picked up their pace as soon as they noticed this. After half a day, they could finally see a mountain shrouded in mist and clouds appear in the distance.

The mountain range was really mysterious. It was covered by fog and clouds all year round, making it impossible to see inside it.

There were already many people standing outside the mountain range. They remained extremely cautious as they studied the mountain, not daring to make any hasty moves. Many people had come running out of the mist earlier, shouting in fear about staying away from the gilded hall or risk dying to the guardians inside.

As such, many of the explorers were left wondering if the guardians they spoke of really existed.

After they made their landing, Li Luo and Li Lingjing took a quick glance at the surroundings and noticed a big group of people gathered at a mountaintop not too far away.

In the center of the group was a charming and beautiful figure. Her long hair danced in the wind, paired with a captivating smile as her bewitching eyes glanced around.

She was none other than Qin Yi.

Numerous young and talented elites from various other powers were by her side. Judging from the undying admiration in their eyes, they must have been captivated by Qin Yi's dazzling beauty.

This was to be expected. After all, she was the one known as the Fairy of Water. Not many youths could withstand her alluring charm.

"Is that Qin Yi from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing? Lower ninth-grade water resonance. She's truly a talented girl with mesmerizing looks. It's no wonder everyone is drawn to her," Li Lingjing remarked as she too was smitten by Qin Yi’s extraordinary appearance.

As she narrowed her eyes, she continued, "Cousin Li Luo, it's much more troublesome to deal with someone like this than Zhao Shenjiang. She just needs to throw a nasty look at you, and those soldiers by her side will give you a hell of a time."

Li Luo replied helplessly, "It's not like I wanted it. This is just passed down enmity from the previous generation."

"The guy in black standing by her side is extremely strong. He must be her protector," Li Lingjing proceeded to warn him.

Hearing this, he looked over and saw a skinny guy dressed in black standing behind Qin Yi. The man had an indifferent look on his face, but the fierce and murderous intent emanating from him forced those who tried to approach Qin Yi to back off with restraint.

Li Luo pondered for a moment and said,. "That fellow should be Qin Ying, the leader of the previous generation of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Qing. His strength should be comparable to that of Li Wuyuan and Zhao Yan."

This was included in the information that he had gathered regarding the elites of various Heavenly Emperor powers before he set off for the Spiritual Resonance Cave.

Just as the two of them were talking, Qin Yi and Qin Ying sensed their presence, and their gazes turned towards Li Luo and Li Lingjing immediately.

Qin Yi's usually calm expression changed immediately when she noticed Li Luo. With a charming smile, she said in a soft voice, "Dragon's Head Li Luo, why don't we catch up since you're here? We have a lot of information, perhaps we can even form a temporary partnership."

When she finished speaking, the young crowd around her turned and looked towards Li Luo with all kinds of gazes. Their faces changed a little as soon as they saw him. In terms of appearances, Li Luo was truly exceptional.

At the same moment, Li Luo thought about her offer for a while before he smiled and replied fearlessly, "How could I dare to turn you down after you’ve made such a generous offer, Fairy Qin?"

Qin Yi was a really smart girl. She had mentioned information to lure Li Luo over, knowing very well that this was precisely what he could not say no to.

However, Li Luo turned over to Li Lingjing afterwards and told her in a serious voice, "Please do your job well and protect me, Cousin Lingjing."

Li Lingjing laughed and replied, "With how promptly you answered, I assumed you were confident in your ability to protect yourself."

"Of course. My confidence stems from you, Cousin," Li Luo answered boldly.

With that, he activated his energy wings and flew into the sky. A few breaths later, he landed over at Qin Yi's side on top of the mountain.

When he arrived, the crowd surrounding her shot him looks filled with hostility, as if they were trying to tell him it should be first come first served.

However, Li Luo was not bothered by them at all. He looked over to Qin Yi with a smile and asked, "Is it dangerous here? I am surprised you wanted to create a temporary alliance with me."

Before Qin Yi could reply, a youth in golden robes stepped up from her side and replied with a smirk, "Perhaps it's not you, but the young lady by your side?"

Li Luo looked back at him. Nonetheless, he continued in a calm voice before Li Luo could say anything else, "Nice to meet you, Dragon's Head Li Luo. I am Chen Ping from the Golden Goose Clan."

The Golden Goose Clan was also one of the top powers in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. There was a King in their clan, and Chen Ping was one of the up and coming elites in their younger generation.

Li Luo could clearly sense strong waves of resonant power coming from him. He was at least a one-pearl, judging from the undulations.

Chen Ping glared at Li Luo as he asked with an inexplicable smile, "Dragon's Head Li Luo, is it true that you’re still a Fiend Finisher?"

"What's wrong with that?" Li Luo replied with a grin.

"Just asking out of curiosity. After all, I've never heard of any Dragon's Head in the history of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li that was not at the Heavenly Pearl Tier at least," Chen Ping replied.

Hearing this, some of the guys around him gave sly smiles. They understood that Chen Ping was trying to bring down Li Luo with those words.

This was a good thing for them. After all, they would not want the Dragon's Head from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li to steal the limelight here.

In response, Li Luo simply smiled and said, "You're right. I have made unprecedented achievements thanks to my hard work in cultivation every day, coupled with my unparalleled natural talent. It's definitely not due to the resources of the Dragon's Fang Lineage at all. I am sure you are all aware that I've not even spent a full year there."

The crowd's faces turned a little stiff when they heard this. Chen Ping was also left speechless for a moment. “Was I talking about your unprecedented achievement here?”

Although, it was not completely wrong to say that either.

"Dragon's Head Li Luo is really special. After spending more than ten years in the outer divine continent, you still managed to win against all the talents in the Heavenly Dragon's Five Lineages and obtained the Dragon's Head position with Fiend Finisher strength. Moreover, this took you less than a year in the Dragon's Fang Lineage. Even I, Qin Yi, have to admire you for such an amazing achievement," Qin Yi said with a sweet smile.

"Enough with the banter. What useful information might you have, Fairy Qin?" Li Luo responded with a smile.

Surprisingly, Qin Yi was not angry at his frank and direct response. She took out a jade stone that glowed and formed a screen in front of everyone.

There was a forest on the lit screen. Further ahead in the distance was a faint sign of a golden-colored grand hall hidden within the trees.

They could see a huge battle happening in that location.

There were many figures flashing by, many with radiant Heavenly Pearls behind their backs. All of them were fighting to move towards the gilded hall.

However, none of them succeeded. At this moment, a group of people walked out of the forest. Massive amounts of resonant power exploded into the air and terrifyingly powerful resonant arts flew across the field. In the blink of an eye, the Heavenly Pearl cultivators trying to make their way into the gilded hall were completely wiped out.

Only a few lucky survivors watched in fear as they retreated hastily.

At this point, the light screen abruptly stopped. It froze on the scene with the mysterious individuals who had suddenly appeared. They all had indifferent looks on their faces, as if they had no emotions at all.

However, what really caught Li Luo's attention was the uniform-like robes that they were all wearing. The symbol of heaven and earth was sewn onto them.

Wearing matching outfits that seemed to resemble a sect's uniform in this situation? In that instant, Li Luo could guess just who they could be.

“These people... were they the disciples of the Sacred Void Resonance Sect?”
