She looked at his eyes, which held a hint of shock, and asked, \"What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo’s previously racing heart gradually calmed down at this moment. He hesitated for a moment, unsure if the malicious perception he had felt in the depths earlier was just his imagination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, as he exited the Dark Spirit Pool, that malicious perception had vanished completely, as if it had never appeared at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in the end, he simply shook his head at Jiang Qing, his expression gradually returning to composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you reach the thirty-eighth tier?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Jiang Qing did not ask further. She looked Li Luo over, and a hint of gratification immediately appeared on her beautiful jade-like face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could feel the increased resonance power fluctuations within Li Luo; that was certainly not something an ordinary breakthrough could achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo met her gaze, nodded with a smile, and said, \"I was lucky enough to reach the thirty-eighth tier and completed a breakthrough, skipping two levels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As of now, I am at the third pattern of the Pattern-Birth Stage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his words fell, a wave of uproar immediately erupted all around, and every gaze was filled with shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo had actually reached the thirty-eighth tier?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just like Jiang Qing, he had skipped two levels during his breakthrough?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this guy really that monstrous?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Bai and Tian Tian also experienced a momentary lapse of focus at this time, and then they exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also hadn't expected that Li Luo had actually done it...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is that possible?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast to their shock, Song Qiuyu couldn't help but cry out. Her cheeks turned pale and blue, and her eyes held a mix of annoyance and unwillingness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo’s Dark Spirit Leaf had been snatched from them, and now that Li Luo had taken advantage of the situation to make such progress, didn't that mean they had contributed to it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the thought of this, Song Qiuyu’s face turned livid, and a stifled feeling made her chest ache.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her, Wang Yufeng was also full of disbelief. The thirty-eighth tier was a place he couldn't even reach now, yet Li Luo, a freshman from the First Star Academy, had actually managed it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, no matter how much they didn't want to believe it, the resonance power fluctuations radiating from Li Luo were indeed far stronger than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This must have been a huge improvement achieved in less than an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Captain is amazing!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cheers of the hype-man Bai Meng rang out, celebrating Li Luo’s triumphant return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xin Fu also looked at Li Luo with envy and admiration. When he first entered the academy, his resonance power level had been a step ahead of Li Luo’s, but after this Dark Spirit Pool, Li Luo had surpassed him by two levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And since Li Luo had defeated Wang Hejiu while his resonance power level was lower, it was hard to imagine to what extent his combat power would rise following this improvement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps Li Luo was already qualified to compete with Qin Zhulu for the title of the true strongest freshman of the First Star Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding students also had envious gazes. Skipping two levels to reach the third pattern of the Pattern-Birth Stage—such strength could be considered excellent even in the Second Star Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even someone as strong as Wang Yufeng was only at the fourth pattern of the Pattern-Birth Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Li Luo had only been in the academy for half a year, yet he was already catching up. This speed was simply comparable to Jiang Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qing’s eyes also held a joyful smile as she said, \"Since you’re out, we can leave now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trip to the Dark Spirit Pool had been very fruitful, and now, it was time to continue their purification mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Li Luo suddenly smiled and said, \"Wait a moment, I have a business deal to conduct.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qing was puzzled, but a moment later, when she saw Li Luo slowly pull a handful of extremely familiar black leaves from his robes, even her composure wavered slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo coughed loudly to draw everyone's attention, then shook out the handful of Dark Spirit Leaves in front of him, incidentally fanning himself with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the gazes of those present turned toward him, some saw the Dark Spirit Leaves in Li Luo’s hand. They first rubbed their eyes and then gave a self-deprecating laugh; it seemed they wanted Dark Spirit Leaves so badly that they were starting to hallucinate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could this Li Luo possibly be holding a handful of Dark Spirit Leaves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of joke are you playing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some shook their heads in self-mockery, as this scene was even more unbelievable to them than just learning that Li Luo had reached the thirty-eighth tier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the thirty-eighth tier was extremely difficult, someone had reached it before, but who had ever heard of someone being able to grab a handful of Dark Spirit Leaves from the depths of the Dark Spirit Pool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, not everyone was in such a state of self-denial. There were still sharp-minded people who quickly came to their senses. They stared fixedly at the handful of Dark Spirit Leaves in Li Luo’s hand, and their breathing gradually grew heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo smiled and said loudly, \"Everyone, just now, when I went deep into the Dark Spirit Pool, I discovered the Dark Spirit Tree and was lucky enough to grab some Dark Spirit Leaves from it...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, that's right, these are them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gently shook the Dark Spirit Leaves in his hand, nodded at the crowd, and confirmed, \"You didn't see wrong; these are indeed Dark Spirit Leaves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was only the sound of increasingly heavy breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pair after pair of eyes looked at the Dark Spirit Leaves in Li Luo’s hand, starting to turn red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiu Bai and Tian Tian were also dumbfounded as they stared at the handful of Dark Spirit Leaves in Li Luo’s hand. At this moment, even they couldn't help but feel a bit flustered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because even they had never seen such a miraculous scene!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you take these Dark Spirit Leaves from the Dark Spirit Tree? The world energy there is extremely dense, forming a barrier; ordinary resonance power is simply difficult to penetrate and reach the Dark Spirit Tree.\" However, the first to raise a question was actually Jiang Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes held undisguised surprise, because she had also reached the thirty-eighth tier and naturally had seen the Dark Spirit Tree located below the thirty-eighth tier. She had also tried to see if she could obtain some Dark Spirit Leaves, but she had always fallen short.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because of the power of dual resonances.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo smiled and said, \"The world energy in the depths of the Dark Spirit Pool is extremely dense. Unless ordinary resonance power breaks through with absolute intensity, it won't work. However, I can manifest the power of dual resonances, which is a power higher than the ordinary level of resonance power, so I was lucky enough to succeed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Qing suddenly understood; so it was the power of dual resonances... Although Li Luo’s dual resonance power was extremely shallow and crude, it was, after all, the real deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a high-level power that only those who had reached the Marquis level could master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding crowd also heard Li Luo’s explanation, but none of that mattered anymore. They didn't care how Li Luo had obtained these Dark Spirit Leaves; they only cared about how Li Luo intended to handle them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also believed that Li Luo showing these Dark Spirit Leaves was not as naive as mere showing off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because that would incite public anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone should be interested in these Dark Spirit Leaves, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo didn't continue to keep them in suspense. The smile on his handsome face grew even more enthusiastic, and then he shook the Dark Spirit Leaves, the crisp rustling sound attracting everyone's gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Half a bottle of Emperor Flowing Liquid can be exchanged for one Dark Spirit Leaf.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fair prices for all, welcome to grab them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1460,"2026-06-20T03:27:23.471Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","df1f26fccad882f618809ca20896b36a78dc1a7dd1f342f157dbcc58b31672a9","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-260","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-258",999,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fking-of-all-manifestations-cover.jpg"]
