Chapter 1145: Double Dragon Might
The two Black Coffin Carriers flanked Li Luo on his left and right, their venomous, cold eyes fixated on him. One even revealed a brutal smile.
They enjoyed seeing an expression of utter despair on a youthful genius.
"Oh? A nine-pearl? Is that supposed to be amazing?"
The Black Coffin Carriers glanced at the resplendent Heavenly Pearls behind Li Luo, and their gazes turned sinister.
"Isn't it pretty cool? I suppose it is." Li Luo shrugged with a face full of smiles.
The duo's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Did this brat really think that they were complimenting him? How did he have the gall to brag in such a situation?
One of them gave a deep smile and stomped the ground. A wave of cold energy roared forth as the black coffin behind him shot outwards in a beam of black light, slamming right into Li Luo.
When the black coffin launched itself towards Li Luo like a cannonball, it caused the void to crack and split.
"Watch out, Li Luo!" Jiang Wanyu hurriedly warned him.
This was all she could do as the two Black Coffin Carriers were at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier and she would only be a burden if she tried to step into this battle.
The situation of the students was not looking optimistic. The mysterious coffin carriers had ruined whatever advantage they had obtained.
Zong Sha and the rest were fending off the Others with all their might. When they saw what was happening to Li Luo, they inevitably felt worried for him.
Although Li Luo was in peak condition, even reaching the nine-pearl tier, the ones who were attacking him were a whole stage above him!
Could it even be called a match?
As a result, they naturally felt a little pessimistic.
In the midst of their worry, Li Luo tightly grasped the Dragon Elephant Blade and the nine Heavenly Pearls behind him began to radiate with even greater brilliance as they absorbed copious amounts of worldly natural energy, almost akin to a black hole and its event horizon.
Feeling the massive amounts of energy flowing into his body, Li Luo took in a deep breath. This strength was his and his alone, not power borrowed from Li Hongyou.
He wasn't at all inferior to someone at the True Seal-grade. Alas, the opponents before him were even stronger.
Thus, Li Luo immediately activated the golden water pearls within his resonant palaces without hesitation. Source origin flooded into him and fused with his resonant power.
The majestic amounts of resonant power within him began to qualitatively transform yet again.
He was now filled with mighty resonant power in every nook and cranny of his body.
Li Luo chopped downwards with the Dragon Elephant Blade that was imbued with blade energy, directly clashing with the black coffin that was flying towards him. He had to test out his strength and see if he could truly compete with those at the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier.
Clang!
A moment later, a metallic sound rang out, and great amounts of energy immediately spilled across the battlefield and shattered the void.
The surroundings had been wrecked as a result of the clash, leaving deep cracks in the ground.
The Dragon Elephant Blade in Li Luo's hand shook violently and his body was also shaking as a result. The terrible resultant rebound force that coursed through his body was then eroded by his resonant power.
His opponent, on the other hand, had been sent flying and his coffin was left with a finger-deep gash.
"What?!" The Black Coffin Carrier who had attacked had an expression of surprise before fury and murderous intent clouded his eyes. He had not expected Li Luo to successfully fend off his attack.
This made no sense at all. No matter how strong a nine-pearl was, they were only at the Heavenly Pearl Tier—the gap between them was two entire tiers!
Taking advantage of his moment of shock, Li Luo flashed forward and directly rushed towards that Black Coffin Carrier.
"Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon's Body, Nine Dragons' Might; Thunderpeal Avatar, Five Sonic Pulses!"
Li Luo activated every single physical augmentation art he had without reserve, resulting in him become a whole three feet taller as draconic roars and thunderclaps could be heard booming through his body.
His speed had increased to a frightening point when he unleashed all of his might. Afterimages were left in his wake when he arrived before the Black Coffin Carrier in a few breaths of time.
"You're looking to die!" The Black Coffin Carrier saw that Li Luo had taken the initiative to close the distance and launch his own assault. At the same time, a berserk frenzy seemed to take control of him. As they had spent a large amount of time with Others, their emotions had been eroded and become uncontrollable, leaving them prone to outbursts.
Icy energy gushed out of his sleeves, almost akin to the energy of an ice resonance. The only difference was that the color of it was a murky black, as though it had been stained by corruption.
Li Luo looked at the murky black ice energy, but his heart remained calm. He once again hacked downwards with his Dragon Elephant Blade. Blade energy surged forward, transforming into a massive dragon and ancient elephant.
"Dragon Elephant Blade, Dragon and Elephant's Divine Might!"
The materialized creatures immediately fused and turned into a blade wheel possessing tyrannical might. As it spun, the air was ripped apart, creating sonic booms that then directly collided with the roiling black ice.
Domineering blade energy raged against the ice, causing it to shatter in waves.
However, Li Luo did not stop there. His gaze was focused on the Black Coffin Carrier before him while the resonant power in his body was being consumed at an alarming rate. At the same time, he slashed downwards, creating a rift in the void.
A low, guttural roar echoed from the depths of the crack.
A moment later, two imposing and massive dragons rushed out. One was surfing along a river of black water whilst the other rode a stream of lightning.
The two dragons intertwined and penetrated the void with a majestic entrance.
Underworld River's Black Dragon Banner!
Heavenly Judgment's Silver Dragon Banner!
Two of the three constituent Duke Arts of the Three Dragons' Heavenly Banner Canon had been fused by Li Luo! Although it was lacking the last part and unable to reach completion, the fusion of the two far surpassed the average Soul Ascension-grade Duke Art.
The sight of the two dragons intertwining was like seeing two heavenly blade strikes fused together, capable of splitting the heavens in half.
Li Luo's sudden outburst was so rapid that the other Black Coffin Carrier only reacted upon seeing the twin dragons. To his horror, he could instinctively sense how ferocious the attack was.
His expression warped as he shouted to warn his companion, "Hurry and activate the Other Transformation!"
Li Luo's attack had caused him to feel a sense of danger.
Only now did he understand that Li Luo had taken advantage of the fact that they had underestimated him. Li Luo had used a lightning-quick attack with all of his might to take one out before they could react.
How was this brat so daring?
A nine-pearl was facing two clearly superior opponents, yet he had not escaped, instead plotting to take one down at the earliest possible opportunity.
At the same time, the Black Coffin Carrier whom Li Luo was targeting could feel alarm bells ringing in his heart when he saw the two dragons that were rapidly lunging at him.
"You brat... it seems I've underestimated you. Do you really think I can be killed so easily?" The Black Coffin Carrier revealed a ruthless expression and formed a hand seal. "Other Transformation!"
The Other Transformation was their strongest trump card. The black coffins on each of their backs contained an Other that they were raising. At some point in the future, they would fuse with those Others, and their own strength would experience a meteoric rise.
Bang!
The black Coffin that was now suspended a few feet behind him began to shake violently. However, the look in his eyes began to change into one full of fear.
He realized that no matter how much the coffin shook, the lid remained stuck and the Other was unable to escape and assimilate with him. "What is going on!?" the Black Coffin Carrier shouted in horror
Yet he had no time to turn around and figure out what was going on, as the draconic Duke Arts were barreling towards him with the intent to destroy everything in their wake.
The Black Coffin Carrier could only roar as the black, icy energy poured out of his body and transformed into a black glacier before him.
Boom!
The two Duke Arts clashed against it, and violent energy undulations radiated in every direction, causing the void to shudder.
Things did not end here. Li Luo's attack was not so easily resolved.
The two dragons violently bashed apart the black glacier and reached the Black Coffin Carrier.
A moment later, he felt as though he was flying, but all he saw was a headless body that was standing where he used to be.
He had been decapitated just like that.
As his head rolled, he finally had the time to look at his coffin. He suddenly realized that a black plaque was lodged within it.
The plaque was engraved with the character "Li," and it gave off a terrifyingly oppressive aura.
That tiny object was holding the coffin's lid down like a mountain holding up the skies, preventing the Other from breaking out and merging with him.
"What is that?"
"That black plaque... did he attach it onto the coffin when they clashed?"
These thoughts ran through the Black Coffin Carrier's mind. Although his head was separated from his body, he had yet to die as his body possessed tenacious amounts of vitality as a result of fusing with the Other for a long period of time.
"If I can reattach my head..." he thought to himself.
But then he saw an arrow made of light energy whizzing towards him. It contained immense amounts of divine power.
The light arrow directly penetrated his defenseless head.
The holy power within the arrow began to spread, and the Black Coffin Carrier felt utter terror at this development. His vitality was beginning to dissipate at a rapid rate and even his robust lifeforce was unable to keep up.
In his last moments, he turned towards Li Luo. The brat had put down his intimidating greatbow and was smiling at him while waving his hand.
It was like he was saying goodbye to him.
"Damn it! I've been had!" The last thoughts in his mind were filled with regret, then his vision turned black.
