Whoosh!
Lian Zhong was not holding back. His Eighth Seal resonant power was fully utilized now. A menacing, yellow blade arced towards Li Luo.
Li Luo had no intention of dodging at all. Instead, he lifted himself up to the balls of his feet and darted forth like an eagle. His two swords were in hand, swirling blue with his water resonance power.
Dang!
When the swords met, resonant power boomed out, the aftershock rippling through the leaves.
Lian Zhong's face whitened. Li Luo was completely unfazed by his Eighth Seal power. He could not suppress Li Luo in a clash!
"Impossible! He should only be a Seventh Seal!" Lian Zhong was alarmed!
"Seems like the Eighth Seal doesn't count for much."
Li Luo let a grin show. With his waterlight resonance at the sixth-grade, plus his resonant power at the Seventh Seal, an Eighth Seal would not trouble him as much as Song Yunfeng had during the preliminaries.
"I'll make you eat those words!" Lian Zhong shouted with a vindictive hysteria. His resonant power again surging forth, he chopped and cleaved in a frenzy.
But Li Luo was faster. His two swords in hand, blue light pulsed out as he twirled them, a continuous attack that pressed Lian Zhong hard.
Fury in his eyes, Lian Zhong had his hands full dealing with it.
Dang! Dang!
The two fought for dozens of rounds. The clashes of metal rang out through the forest.
But as the battle wore on, Lian Zhong felt that the intensity of Li Luo's attacks and resonant power only grew more vigorous.
"The Nine Layered Jade Waves? That's a high-grade water resonance art!" Lian Zhong paled. This water resonance art would gradually accumulate power as the battle wore on. Once it reached peak strength, he would be hard-pressed indeed.
Lian Zhong was a veteran in battle. He immediately called upon all his yellow earth resonant power, imbuing his sword. "High-grade resonance art, Earth Slash!"
He brought his cleaver down and split the earth in a yawning gap. But still Li Luo's blades twirled, and waves of sword light continued to wear away Lian Zhong's attacks.
"Trying to stop my Nine Layered Jade Waves? Seems like you're not strong enough." Li Luo chuckled.
Lian Zhong's face was grim now. He could not understand what was happening. Li Luo was clearly only a Seventh Seal. How could he be this strong and hard to deal with?
In their previous clash, he could clearly sense that there was something odd about Li Luo's resonant power. It could stand up against his earth resonance power surprisingly well.
It seemed like Li Luo's resonance was of a high grade.
But from the information he had, wasn't Li Luo's resonance only a fifth-grade? Why was it so hard to deal with?
While Lian Zhong was flustered, Li Luo only grew sharper as time wore on.
Nine Layered Jade Waves' power was built up now. Time to counterattack.
Li Luo's azure-blue power had reached its peak. The light on his Ripple Blade also glowed bright as it chopped down towards Lian Zhong's chest.
A punishing blow.
Lian Zhong had to be wary of Li Luo's explosive counter. The built-up power of the Nine Layered Jade Waves was not to be taken lightly.
He took a deep breath, summoning up his yellow, earthy resonant power. With a roar, he molded it a shimmering armor of light.
"High-grade resonance art, Earth Armor!"
A faint, yellow armor shimmered into existence around him. It looked reassuringly strong—defense was the specialty of earth resonance users after all. Lian Zhong no longer dared to underestimate Li Luo. He had best bring all that he had to the table.
Weng!
