Chapter 0976: Treasure Seizing
"Our situation is dire. Let\'s cooperate and focus our efforts to make an opening and force our way in. We\'ll have an additional layer of protection once we\'re inside," Li Luo suggested calmly.
Qin Yi nodded slightly. This was exactly her thoughts as well.
In the next moment, they worked together to create an extraordinary blast of resonant power that struck a corner of the doors. The runes fluctuated brightly as they resisted the attack. However, the doors remained stationary.
Li Luo had summoned up his resonant power in this moment as well. However, his resonant power had a strand of the acquired resonance flame hidden within it.
Bang!
As soon as Li Luo\'s resonant power struck the doors along with the attacks from the others, the runes started reacting vigorously.
"It\'s working! Let\'s redouble our efforts!" Zhu Dayu shouted when he saw that there was finally a reaction.
The others were similarly motivated, and their attacks grew fiercer.
Meanwhile, Li Luo ensured that his strikes continued to hit the doors. Gradually, the runes turned darker. A few moments later, they completely dissipated.
Bang!
The doors of the main hall opened up slowly.
Li Luo and Qin Yi were the first ones to rush into the main hall. They knew that if the main hall had such an impressive protection set up, there could very well be treasures hidden inside.
The interior of the hall was dazzling gold, with the marks of earth, wind, water, and fire engraved onto its walls. It was a really magical sight.
However, what really caught everyone\'s attention was the center region.
There was a golden platform there, with numerous runes carved into it. These runes extended out and stretched to all the other parts of the main hall.
One could faintly see worldly natural energy flowing continuously towards the golden platform.
And there were more than a dozen balls of light hovering above the platform and constantly moving about. Within them were numerous artifacts, each emitting an extremely powerful energy wave.
"Treasured artifacts!"
The eyes of everyone who had entered the main hall lit up immediately. The items inside the balls of light were all treasured artifacts. In fact, they were all violet-eyed treasured artifacts based on the energy waves.
Moreover, the brightest one in the middle had such a strong energy wave that it could very well be a triple violet-eye treasured artifact! Not to mention the ordinary rogue cultivators, such a high-grade treasured artifact was attractive to even people like Li Luo, Qin Yi, and Zhu Dayu.
Li Luo\'s eyes lit up as well at the same moment. The only triple violet-eye treasured artifact he had to date was the Heavenly Dragon\'s Sunchaser Bow. The only other one would be his violet Resonant Tree Brooch. Yet there were dozens of such treasures lying in front of them right now.
If he could just get even one of them, his battle strength would surely improve significantly.
After a short moment of silence in the main hall, resonant power began to surge up. In the blink of an eye, everyone was rushing towards the golden platform.
There was no doubt that everyone wanted to get their hands on a treasured artifact first.
When the crowd approached the platform, it abruptly began to give off a sharp ringing noise. Then there was a golden flash all of a sudden, and the crowd was blown back with everyone spitting out blood.
The treasures stored in the center also flew out in all directions at this time.
The place turned into chaos as everyone chased after the treasured artifacts.
Li Luo scanned the surroundings with his eyes. The three resonant palaces within him buzzed and resonated with each other as resonant power surged within his body. He then combined them into dual resonance power as chased with explosive speed.
His eyes scanned the surroundings swiftly before focusing on a ball of light.
This was the brightest ball among all the treasures here. The energy coming from it was as shocking as a volcanic eruption. Clearly, this was no ordinary treasure.
Li Luo was naturally drawn to it.
However, it had caught the eyes of Qin Ying and Zhu Zhu, two of the strongest people in the room, as well. Eight Heavenly Pearls appeared behind those two, and their fearsome energy undulations swept across the field and blew the others away. The two of them charged straight towards that ball of light.
Seeing this, Li Luo looked over to Li Lingjing. However, her resonant power had yet to fully recover and she could only respond with a helpless look. If she were to fight Qin Ying and Zhu Zhu for the treasure now, it would only reveal to them that her body was in bad shape.
Li Luo felt a little regretful. He signaled for Li Lingjing to watch out for herself before he rushed out as well. However, he had no intention to compete with Qin Ying and Zhu Zhu for the time being. He wanted to grab hold of the other violet-eye treasured artifacts first. As for the most eye-catching one? He would see if there was a chance to get it later.
His eyes were soon locked onto one ball of light, which was already the target of many others. Resonant power reached out towards the ball of light repeatedly, causing it to tremble violently.
As the ball of light weakened, Li Luo could see the item within it. It appeared to be an emerald feather fan, radiating green light full of vitality.
This treasured artifact likely had a wood resonance affinity.
Li Luo possessed wood resonant power, so it was perfect for him. Without any further hesitation, he charged towards it with his Nine Scales Sanctified Dragon\'s Body activated. His wings spread out behind him, and the boom of lightning and thunder filled the air.
"How bold of you!"
It seemed like many people had already laid their eyes on this treasured artifact too, and none of them were weak, the strongest amongst them being a three-pearl. He shouted out angrily when he saw a Fiend Finisher like Li Luo coming to fight with them for the treasure.
Although they all knew about Li Luo\'s background, the final result would be decided by strength. One\'s background was completely disregarded when such a delicious treasure was right in front of their eyes.
As such, he glared angrily. The Heavenly Pearls behind him shone even brighter, then he launched an attack towards Li Luo.
Nonetheless, Li Luo did not back down. His eyes were filled with murderous intent as he lifted his hand and a sword silhouette emerged in his palm.
It seemed to contain a vast ocean of indescribably sharp sword energy, drawing over the horrified gazes of many in the hall as soon as it materialized.
This was shocking even to those multiple tiers stronger than Li Luo.
In the distance, Qin Yi also looked over with a serious expression. The sword silhouette in his palm has to be the secret ace up his sleeve. It must have been the secret art that had helped him defeat the replica of Li Taixuan during the Battle of the Dragon\'s Head.
The silhouette exuded horrifying power. Clearly, this Duke Art was of a really high grade, perhaps a Destiny-grade.
The people who had thoughts of retaliating against Li Luo froze in their tracks instantly. Their faces changed completely and they did not dare to attack anymore. They could totally tell that the azure sword intent in Li Luo\'s palm was fatal, even to them!
Even the three-pearl cultivator knew that he would likely end up seriously injured if he became Li Luo’s target.
The situation was beyond chaotic now, especially with Others coming after them from the outside. If he got seriously injured now, he could really lose his life in the fights that followed.
No matter how precious and attractive the violet-eye treasured artifacts were, it was not a wise choice to fight over one with Li Luo. Besides, he could still go after the other treasures.
Li Lingjing was also observing the situation from nearby. Although he did not know why she had chosen to stay out of battle for now, her strength was something he could not ignore.
Hence, many of the people backed down despite how unwilling they were.
Li Luo went ahead and reached into the ball of light without any further hesitation when he noticed the others backing down. Opening his hand, he went ahead to grab the emerald feather fan.
However, there was a strong resistance as soon as his hands came into contact with the handle of the treasure. There seemed to be a special mark on the handle, and Li Luo could not gain control over the fan without getting rid of it.
Li Luo frowned as he attempted to erase the mark by channeling his resonant power. However, the mark seemed to be alive, resisting his efforts. It was a really troublesome mark. If he continued at this pace, it would take a really really long time to erase it completely.
It seemed like even if they got ahold of these treasures, they would not be able to gain control over them.
Li Luo raised his head at this moment. He noticed that the other people who had managed to get their hands on treasured artifacts were facing the same problem too. There appeared to be some kind of mark protecting them.
Li Luo thought about it for a moment before he summoned up the Acquired Resonance Flame. As an experiment, he tried to let the Acquired Resonance Flame come into contact with the mark.
To his surprise, the Acquired Resonance Flame simply made one rotation around the mark and then was completely erased without any traces left behind. Li Luo channeled his resonant power into the treasure once again. This time, he easily gained control of the emerald green fan.
A message surfaced deep in his mind as soon as he did so.
Violet-eye treasured artifact: Blackwood Feather Fan. With a single swipe, it can sweep out with the mysterious light of life and death. The light of life is white in color, granting vitality to one and aiding in recovery. The light of death is black in color, dissolving one\'s blood and bones.
