Chapter 1759: Ten-Phase Li Li Tianwang Sha

Boom!

A vast, boundless tide of energy surged out from the Spiritual Resonance Grotto-Heaven. The commotion was so immense that it radiated across the entire Outer Shenzhou, and even the other Shenzhou continents, separated by extreme distances, could faintly sense the abnormal turbulence of the world's energy at this moment.

This phenomenon was far more violent than all the previous Li Li Tianwang Qi.

Across the ten great Shenzhou continents, countless powerful experts cast their shocked, expectant gazes toward the direction of the Spiritual Resonance Grotto-Heaven.

And under the gaze of countless eyes, within the Spiritual Resonance Grotto-Heaven, Li Luo's and Jiang Qing'e's figures had completely merged with that magnificent Qi resembling the "sun and moon." In an instant, nine radiant halos rose above each of their heads. The halos intertwined, ultimately transforming into towering, majestic Peerless Divine Thrones, standing between heaven and earth like divine mountains.

Upon those divine thrones, countless ancient, primordial runes were inscribed, and the Peerless Arts the two had cultivated were also etched upon them, adding to their divine charm.

The two Peerless Divine Thrones seemed to be the most perfect things in heaven and earth at this moment, inspiring an irresistible sense of awe and worship.

Li Luo's pupils reflected the Peerless Divine Throne blazing with ten thousand beams of profound light, and for a brief moment he became lost in thought. After all, this was the foundation he had painstakingly cultivated over all these years. Unconsciously, that empty-phase youth from the South Wind Academy back then was now about to take that step toward the most pinnacle realm of this world.

Who knew how much heart's blood and effort had been condensed within.

At this very moment, Li Luo could sense that with the descent and fusion of this vast Qi, the realm that had been stagnant at the peak of Peerless Ninth Grade for so long was beginning to stir restlessly.

The opportunity for the Li Li Tianwang realm had arrived.

The surging, boundless energy between heaven and earth transformed into an endless divine staircase, stretching all the way down.

Li Luo had personally witnessed Li Li Jingzhe ascend to the Li Li Tianwang realm and knew that atop this divine staircase lay the greatest hurdle—the terrifying tribulation that tempered a Li Li Tianwang.

Li Li Tianwang Sha!

Li Li Tianwang Sha originates from one's own phase affinities. For all those who reach the pinnacle, the final stumbling block they encounter is the thing they are most familiar with—themselves.

Li Luo could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth, because most others advancing to the Li Li Tianwang realm only possessed three phase affinities, so their Li Li Tianwang Sha also only came in three types. Yet here he was, reaching a horrifying ten phases.

In other words, his Li Li Tianwang Sha would manifest in ten forms!

In a certain sense, this was probably the first such case throughout all of history.

Such an honor—even that most brilliant, legendary sect master of the Faceless Holy Sect had never experienced it, because her own phase affinities were not entirely of dual phases.

In terms of the number of phase affinities, Li Luo should count as the first person throughout history.

And as Li Luo's emotions churned, he felt a scorching, sacred aura suddenly flowing in his palm. He turned his head to look and saw Jiang Qing'e spreading open his hand. Her jade-like fingers, stained with blood, had carved a blood pattern burning with sacred flames into his palm.

"This blood pattern can maintain a state of 'Divine Perception' unity between us for a short time. Your Li Li Tianwang Sha is probably the most violent one throughout history; you cannot underestimate it. With this method, I can assist you at critical moments," Jiang Qing'e said softly.

Li Li Tianwang Sha cannot be aided by external force, but Jiang Qing'e cleverly utilized the "Divine Perception" state of the Primordial Seed, making the two of them as one, naturally allowing her to help Li Luo overcome the hurdle together.

"You have four Li Li Tianwang Sha on your side too; don't be distracted by me." Feeling Jiang Qing'e's concern, Li Luo's heart sweetened, and he also gave a reminder. His side was dangerous, but Jiang Qing'e's side was equally not easy. After all, she possessed four Light phases, and this kind of Li Li Tianwang Sha formed by the superposition of a single type of phase affinity was also extremely rare.

"Don't worry, my Li Li Tianwang Sha is very simple."

Jiang Qing'e smiled faintly and shook her head, then did not elaborate. Instead, she turned and walked toward the endless divine staircase that belonged to her. As she ascended the stairs, terrifying sacred flames could be seen pouring down from the end of the staircase with an unprecedented ferocious momentum.

The sacred flames were like water; wherever they passed, all matter was purified.

Within those sacred flames, even Li Luo at this moment sensed a deadly dangerous aura, and immediately could not help but Face Turns Solemn. This level of purification was something even he dared not take lightly.

Four types of Light Sha superimposed—was it truly this terrifying?

And as worry rose in Li Luo's heart, the sacred flames pouring down mightily along the divine staircase began to make contact with Jiang Qing'e's figure. However, the next moment, a surprising scene appeared.

Those purifying sacred flames, enough to make an ordinary Li Li Tianwang change color, actually became quiet and docile the instant they made contact with Jiang Qing'e, transforming from their previous surging turbulence.

The sacred flames, as if possessing extraordinary spirituality, circled around Jiang Qing'e's body and finally settled upon her delicate form.

As the flames flowed, they not only failed to harm Jiang Qing'e, but instead seemed to be crowning a noble king. The sacred flames cascaded down, as if spreading out a gorgeous, endless train of flames behind Jiang Qing'e.

Jiang Qing'e encountered not the slightest obstruction. Her holy, exquisite countenance shimmered with sacred light, appearing even more divine than ever. She stepped forward, ascending the stairs slowly, step by step.

Li Luo watched, dumbfounded.

He had once seen Li Li Jingzhe overcome his Li Li Tianwang Sha, which could truly be described as fraught with danger, with killing intent at every step. Yet the Jiang Qing'e before his eyes—where was even a hint of danger?

Those Light Sha emanating terrifying purifying aura seemed to be welcoming a new king's coronation, eager to prostrate themselves at Jiang Qing'e's feet.

"Is it because Sister Qing'e herself is the incarnation of a 'pseudo-ten-grade' Light phase?"

Li Luo had a guess. Jiang Qing'e was the ultimate embodiment of Light, and her Li Li Tianwang Sha was also formed from Light energy, so naturally it did not dare to act presumptuously before her.

No wonder Jiang Qing'e had earlier spoken so casually about the Li Li Tianwang Sha she was about to face.

"That's cheating."

Li Luo sighed with emotion, then no longer hesitated. He turned his head to look at the towering divine staircase before him, his Yan Shen Ning Zhong, while a hint of anticipation also welled up within.

"What will my Li Li Tianwang Sha be like?"

"Sister Qing'e had it so easy; with my foundation and talent, it shouldn't be much of a problem, right?"

Li Luo thought confidently, then stepped forward and ascended the divine staircase.

In that instant, the surrounding space seemed to undergo a transformation. The divine staircase became infinitely towering, extending to the very end of his line of sight, like a ladder to the heavens. And at this moment, from the swirling clouds at the end of the staircase came the cold sound of scales rubbing against each other.

A colossal creature slowly emerged, swimming through the energy clouds.

Gradually, it became clear.

Li Luo's pupils contracted sharply.

He saw at the end of the divine staircase, amidst the clouds woven from vast energies, a celestial dragon whose end could not be seen. It was clad in scales flowing with clear, crystalline water-light—the manifestation of the Water phase and Light phase.

At the same time, a vigorous dragon claw was formed from verdant, ancient wood, with brown earth stretching across it, emanating endless vitality.

Another dragon claw transformed into thunder, with countless ancient thunder talismars ceaselessly roaming across it.

The celestial dragon's pupils were like brilliant ice crystals, flowing with a bone-chilling cold that could freeze time.

Vast, boundless cyan astral wind descended from the heavens, gathering in the celestial dragon's maw lined with menacing fangs. That cyan wind was very peculiar—vague and indistinct, seeming to exist between illusion and reality. While impossible to fathom, it also brought an unavoidable, deadly threat.

The celestial dragon before his eyes had almost perfectly gathered all ten phase affinities Li Luo possessed into a single entity.

Ten-Phase Li Li Tianwang Sha!

Li Luo's expression stiffened. He could clearly sense that within the pupils of the celestial dragon fully armed with ten phase affinities at the end of the divine staircase, a tremendous killing intent was pouring out like a tide.

Feeling the killing intent released by this Li Li Tianwang Sha, which seemed to want to chop him into pieces, Li Luo knew he did not share Jiang Qing'e's good fortune.

Thus, he could only sigh helplessly and curse in frustration.

"What the actual fuck is this nonsense!"
