Chapter 411: Li Luo's Purpose
Giant waves roared, countless lake waters curling down like a torrential rainstorm.
On the tiered viewing platforms among the mountains, countless students suddenly rose, their faces grim as they watched the commotion in the vast lake; no one had expected Lu Cang to suddenly unleash such a terrifying attack, suppressing Li Luo and blasting him into the lake bottom in the blink of an eye.
Such power made even some students at the fourth transformation of the Transformation Phase look solemn.
Moreover, everyone could see that Lu Cang had unleashed all his strength; he was clearly determined to end this decisive battle before the great incense burned out.
"When Lu Cang unleashed the 'Twin Mang Zhou', this decisive match entered its countdown."
On the viewing platform of the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy, Zhao Zhao Huiyin and others watched Lu Cang, who seemed like a ferocious python coiled in the lake, and all breathed a sigh of relief; for based on their understanding of Lu Cang, the 'Twin Mang Zhou' was a combustion state of the two forces within his body, providing him with extremely violent and terrifying power, but lasting only a short time, so once Lu Cang entered this state, it meant the battle was about to end.
No opponent of equal rank could withstand Lu Cang in this state.
"Li Luo's Dual Phase is indeed formidable, but unfortunately, he met the two Lu Cang brothers this time; relying on their bloodline, they grafted their phase power and phase nature onto each other, so in a sense, the current Lu Cang also possesses a Dual Phase; although he lacks an independent Phase Palace to sustain it for long, his combat power in a short time is absolutely superior to Li Luo's Dual Phase," Zhao Zhao Huiyin said leisurely, a smile appearing on her charming face.
"It seems this ticket for the current Sacred Cup battle is destined to fall into the hands of our Blue Abyss Sacred Academy."
Beside her, the other representatives of the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy also wore smiles of assured victory; although they were almost completely suppressed by the Saint Xuanxing Academy in the first half of this ticket match, fortunately, heaven never seals off all exits, and they finally pulled the situation back; now, the scale of victory has tilted towards them.
If they can win this time, the reputation of the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy will surely spread across the entire Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou, which will benefit the academy's ranking improvement.
The Long Princess, Gong Gong Shenjun, and other top students of the academy also looked slightly solemn at this moment; their sharp gazes seemed to pierce through the lake water, seeing the figure blasted into the lake bottom by that terrifying power.
The power unleashed by Lu Cang surprised even them; how would Li Luo respond?
At this moment, even the Long Princess, who still had some confidence in Li Luo, began to waver slightly.
All of them had underestimated this Lu Cang of the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy.
"Captain!" On the side of the First Star Courtyard, Bai Bai Mengmeng nervously covered her small mouth with her hand, her watery big eyes filled with panic.
"Damn, the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy is really deep!" Yu Lang cursed directly.
"This Lu Cang is so strong! If that terrifying strike just now had been aimed at me, I would surely be severely injured and unable to fight now," Qin Qin Zhulu said in a low voice, his face solemn.
Lu Qing'er did not speak, but her tightly clenched hands also revealed her inner worry.
Then she couldn't help but look at Jiang Jiang Qinge; the latter's incredibly beautiful jade face was calm, with no panic whatsoever, which made Lu Qing'er unconsciously breathe a sigh of relief; hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Senior Sister Jiang, will Li Luo be okay?"
Jiang Jiang Qinge's golden eyes gazed at the lake raising giant waves, speaking calmly, "This Lu Cang's strength, even if we look at the First Star Courtyards of the major academies across the Eastern Region Outer Shenzhou, is probably among the top tier; the Blue Abyss Sacred Academy producing such a freak is indeed impressive."
She turned to look at Lu Qing'er and said, "However, even though the current Lu Cang's strength is amazing, it doesn't mean he can truly win."
"Although I am not clear on whether Li Luo has any trump cards, I can feel that he is not dodging the pressure brought by Lu Cang; on the contrary, he seems to be expecting this pressure... even, regarding Lu Cang's attack, Li Luo seems to be actively rushing towards it."
Lu Qing'er was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"Just an intuition," Jiang Jiang Qinge shook her head.
Lu Qing'er felt helpless but didn't ask any more; Jiang Jiang Qinge's words actually alleviated her nervous and worried mood somewhat, and among the people present, besides Jiang Jiang Qinge, perhaps only she trusted Li Luo more.
Although Lu Cang was very strong, as a companion who had experienced much with Li Luo, Lu Qing'er could also vaguely feel the surging waves contained within that young man's body.
Lu Cang was certainly unexpected, but who could determine that what Li Luo had displayed was his entirety?
At the lake bottom, the lake water surged violently.
Li Luo's body slowly sank in the water; he could feel the excruciating pain coming from his arms, where bloodstains tore open, with fresh blood constantly gushing out; within his body, a most violent phase power was rampaging wildly, simultaneously gnawing at his flesh and blood.
That was the phase power from Lu Cang.
That violent strike earlier had obviously caused Li Luo considerable injuries as well.
Excruciating pain surged through his body, yet Li Luo's face was surprisingly calm; in those pupils, there was not only no panic, but rather a strange spirit dancing.
This situation was truly something he hadn't encountered for a long time.
This Lu Cang is a very qualified opponent worthy of being taken seriously with all one's strength.
A slight smile curled up at the corner of Li Luo's lips.
He raised his head, his gaze piercing through the surging lake water to see Lu Cang standing above the lake surface; at this moment, the latter's red-black vertical pupils were also locked onto him.
Their gazes collided.
Lu Cang's face turned gloomy as he slowly tightened his grip on the Green Python Staff in his hand, because in Li Luo's gaze, he seemed to see some encouraging expression, which made him somewhat angry; this guy, already suppressed to this extent, still trying to put on airs?
In this situation, how can you possibly turn the tables?!
Since you don't want to admit defeat, then I can only beat you until you do!
Boom!
In that instant, the red-black phase power was seen erupting from Lu Cang's body again; that phase power seemed to form some kind of viscous substance, flowing over Lu Cang's body surface, finally gathering beneath the Green Python Staff in his hand.
The red-black viscous energy substance constantly dripped from the Green Python Staff, and when it fell into the lake water, that patch of lake water instantly turned pitch black, as if polluted by some deadly poison.
Amidst countless complex gazes, Lu Cang stomped down with one foot.
Splash-splash-splash!
The lake surface seemed to be split open directly at this moment; the next instant, Lu Cang let out a long roar, the red-black phase power sweeping around, his figure resembling a red-black giant python as he broke through the water downwards, the staff shadow sweeping past, parting the lake water.
That staff strike pointed directly at Li Luo at the lake bottom.
The entire lake seemed to boil at this moment due to that surging phase power.
Countless people held their breath; even the Purple Hui Instructor supervising the match was secretly preparing to end the contest at the last critical moment, because Lu Cang's strike was too formidable; if one was not careful, Li Luo might well face a life-threatening danger.
Li Luo at the lake bottom also saw Lu Cang breaking through the water and roaring like a red-black giant python; the power condensed on the Green Python Staff was even tearing the lake water apart, and the mud at the lake bottom was stirred up.
A powerful oppressive pressure descended.
Li Luo even felt a death-like aura.
This feeling was several times stronger than when facing Lin Suo in the Golden Dragon Dojo!
Under that death-like oppressive pressure, Li Luo suddenly felt the world become quiet; the flow of the lake water, the roar of the phase power, all sounds vanished, only the heart beating intensely remained.
The blood throughout his body began to flow faster.
The smile at Li Luo's corner of the mouth gradually spread.
This is the feeling.
He actually slowly closed his eyes at this moment.
His spirit sank into the Phase Palace of the Water Light Phase.
Here, the Water-Light Mutual Force Seed blazes with brilliant light, its Mutual Force patterns already shining with utmost radiance.
During the special training in the Saint Wood Realm Cave previously, Li Luo completed the evolution of the "Wood-Earth Mutual Force" on the final day, truly stepping into the Transformation Phase; however, only the Wood-Earth Mutual Force could be transformed, while his strongest "Water-Light Mutual Force" had yet to achieve that step.
Through repeated attempts, Li Luo felt that the evolution of the "Water-Light Mutual Force" should be extremely difficult because its grade far surpassed that of the "Wood-Earth Mutual Force," so completing this evolution would require some patient, grinding effort.
Originally, Li Luo also thought so, but now, perhaps this step could be skipped.
This was Li Luo's true purpose.
He intended to use the pressure brought by Lu Cang to help him complete the evolution of the "Water-Light Mutual Force"!
