Chapter 363: Battle Against Lin Suo Again

Golden Dragon Peak, summit of the fourth peak.

Having broken out of the Golden Eagle Bee zone, Li Luo and his two companions locked their cold, sharp gazes onto Lin Suo ahead, the atmosphere turning tense and ready to snap.

"I didn't expect you all to actually dare to chase after me..."

Facing the trio's hostile glares, Lin Suo smiled, though the smile gave off a chilling sensation.

"Lin Suo, what's the rush to snatch the Mountain-Visiting Token? Why not come back to the Great Xia Golden Dragon Treasury with us to have some fun?" Li Luo issued a warm invitation.

Lin Suo smiled and shook his head: "Why do something that is seeking your own death? Do you think I am as stupid as the three of you? Three at the Resonance Pattern stage daring to come and hunt me down—if we were in the outside world, you would be dead for sure today."

"That's not necessarily true. What if you were moved by our sincerity and willing to return to Great Xia with us?" Li Luo laughed.

Lin Suo chuckled, gripped his palm, and a blood-red iron mace flashed into existence. He said, "Li Luo, no matter how flowery your words are, you won't be able to take the Golden Dragon Qi back from me today. Furthermore, I will successfully obtain the Mountain-Visiting Token and then fly far away. When that time comes, even if it's Yu Hongxi, what can she do to me?"

"And you, you promised Yu Hongxi you would protect Lu Qinger, yet you let her end up in this state. Tell me, after you return this time, will she treat you as nothing more than a good-for-nothing who only knows how to talk big?"

"You're the one who's a good-for-nothing stray dog that crawled out from who knows where!"

Qin Zhulu, however, had no patience for this kind of trash talk. With a violent roar, his resonance power surged. Holding his heavy black spear and wrapped in a fierce, baleful aura, he unleashed a barrage of spear radiance that tore through the air, launching an attack directly at Lin Suo.

Lin Suo's eyes turned cold as blood-red resonance power whistled upward. This resonance power was like viscous fresh blood, dancing around his body. He then struck out with a palm, and a blood-stained palm print shrieked outward, carrying a fishy stench. It collided with Qin Zhulu's spear radiance and dissolved it entirely.

This was the gap between resonance power levels.

Lin Suo himself was at the Resonance Transformation stage. The gap between the Resonance Transformation stage and the Resonance Pattern stage was not just in the sheer volume of resonance power, but also in its quality. This was because so-called "Resonance Transformation" meant the compatibility between one's resonance and oneself had risen to a new level. Just like Lin Suo's blood resonance, it was no longer mere resonance power but possessed the true characteristics of fresh blood, becoming more corrosive and pervasive.

As one's strength continuously improves, the resonance also becomes increasingly materialized. For instance, Qin Zhulu's Gold-Devouring Demon Tiger resonance—if he could step into the General-Level, his resonance power would be able to truly manifest the beast's form, and its power would become terrifying.

Boom!

The blood-stained palm print swept in. Qin Zhulu roared, his voice carrying a low tiger's growl. His eyes were bloodshot, and he poured all his strength into it, gathering resonance power at the tip of his spear to meet the attack head-on.

However, while Qin Zhulu was busy defending, Lu Qinger also took action to assist. She formed seals with her hands, and icy resonance power surged in her palms, finally condensing into an ice ball. With a push of her palms, the ice ball, carrying a bone-chilling cold, collided with Lin Suo's blood palm print a step ahead of Qin Zhulu.

Bang!

At the moment of impact, the ice ball shattered directly. As the cold air rose, it significantly dulled the resonance power on the blood palm print.

Just then, Qin Zhulu's fierce spear radiance whistled in, striking the blood palm with precision and ferocity.

A violent shockwave ravaged the area. Qin Zhulu took the brunt of it, his body forced back step by step, and the blood and Qi in his body churned. Fortunately, his Black Obsidian Battle Armor erupted with a black ring of light, which managed to withstand the resonance power shock brought by the blood palm.

And as Qin Zhulu and Lu Qinger made their moves, Li Luo's figure also darted out from the right. Twin blades flashed with cold light in his hands, then transformed into blade light as he slashed directly at Lin Suo.

Clang!

Lin Suo smashed down with his blood-red iron mace, as if fresh blood were splattering out, easily blocking the twin blades. He sneered, "The gap between us is something you cannot imagine."

He then launched a counterattack, his iron mace wrapped in immense power, transforming into streaks of blood shadows as he smashed them toward Li Luo.

Li Luo pulled back, his blade light dancing as he blocked all the blood shadows, though with every collision, his figure trembled slightly.

Just as Lin Suo said, the gap in their resonance power could not be ignored.

As Li Luo retreated, passing several large trees, he pressed his palms, which were surging with verdant resonance power, directly into the trees.

Whoosh!

The trees seemed to come alive at that moment. Tree vines like pythons lashed out at the pursuing Lin Suo, but Lin Suo paid no mind to such harassment. As his blood resonance power rose, all the striking vines were eroded and dissipated.

Swish!

At the same time, his figure suddenly turned into a streak of blood light and shot out, appearing directly in front of Li Luo before smashing down with his blood-red iron mace.

Lin Suo grinned savagely, his mace swinging down like a torrent of blood, his momentum fierce.

Clang!

Li Luo met the attack with his twin blades, but this time, the immense power poured down, and the blades in his hands finally reached their limit, shattering with a crisp crack.

However, as Lin Suo shattered Li Luo's blades, his eyes narrowed slightly, for the ground beneath his feet had suddenly become extremely soft, like a quagmire, and his feet sank in instantly.

Water resonance power appeared on the soles of Li Luo's feet, and he slid back rapidly across the mud. His expression was grave, and a stinging pain radiated from his arms. His internal resonance power circulated, turning into healing energy to quickly recover from his injuries.

"Qinger!"

But he had no time to worry about these injuries and shouted urgently.

Lu Qinger flashed over. She pressed her hands to the ground, and icy resonance power surged out, pouring directly into the quagmire and rapidly freezing Lin Suo.

Just like that, Lin Suo, who was about to struggle free, was instantly frozen by the icy quagmire.

Li Luo once again used his wood resonance power to control the surrounding trees, and vines like pythons coiled around, binding Lin Suo's arms.

"Qin Zhulu, hit him!" he shouted sharply.

Boom boom!

The ground seemed to shake at this moment. The trees on the right were violently snapped. Qin Zhulu was seen holding his heavy black spear, resonance power surging beneath him as if he were a warrior riding a giant beast. He gathered all his strength at the spear tip, the sound of the spear like thunder, pointing ruthlessly and directly at Lin Suo's head.

The coordination between the three was nothing short of tacit.

At this moment, Lin Suo, trapped in the icy quagmire, had a twisted expression; he hadn't expected Li Luo to have so many tricks up his sleeve.

"Get lost!"

Watching the charging heavy spear rapidly enlarge in his pupils, Lin Suo let out a sharp shriek. Resonance power flowed over his body surface like fresh blood, and the icy quagmire was instantly dissolved. At the same time, his mouth puffed out, and he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. The blood swelled against the wind, actually transforming into streaks of blood vortexes in front of him.

Chi!

The charging heavy spear pierced through, but every time it passed through a blood vortex, its speed slowed by a fraction, as if it had become much heavier.

And by the time the sharp spear tip was half an inch from Lin Suo's face, it could not advance a single inch further.

No matter how Qin Zhulu urged it, it would not budge.

"Damn it!"

Qin Zhulu's eyes were bloodshot. He threw away the heavy spear, and his entire body lunged out like a savage beast, slamming his head directly into Lin Suo's face.

Bang!

The astonishing force sent Qin Zhulu flying backward, leaving a trail of dozens of meters on the ground, looking extremely disheveled.

Lin Suo was also knocked dizzy, his face shattered, and blood and teeth fell from his mouth, looking quite miserable as well.

However, compared to the pain in his face, the killing intent in Lin Suo's heart was about to erupt into something tangible.

He never imagined that he, with his dignified strength at the third transformation of the Resonance Transformation stage, would be forced into such a sorry state by three at the Resonance Pattern stage.

He let out a sharp, long howl, and his blood resonance power erupted.

Lin Suo's figure shot into the sky and landed on a large tree. Streaks of bright red resonance power formed halos around his body, continuously expanding with an astonishing aura.

Clearly, Lin Suo was completely enraged and no longer intended to hold anything back.

Li Luo looked at Lin Suo, who was unleashing all his resonance power, and his eyes grew grave. He brushed his palm over the space ball on his wrist, and a white, large bow that looked like a falcon spreading its wings appeared in his hands.

Since it's come to this...

Then let's see who can hold out until the end!
