Chapter 1735: Summoning of Kings

Having made his decision, Li Luo had no hesitation. The Absolute Resonance Halo behind him could sense his determination, and rays of source origin energy poured out of it. Vast amounts of worldly natural energy poured towards the Absolute Resonance Halo without reservation in torrents of pure energy.

Everything within millions of miles of Golden Dragon Mountain was also affected, as all of the worldly natural energy surged towards him. It resembled a meteor shower streaking across the skies. Countless living creatures within the area were able to witness this spectacle.

In Golden Dragon Mountain's minor world, Lu Taiyi and Lu Sui's expressions changed. They could sense that the source origin fluctuations emanating from Li Luo had reached a terrifying level.

"What is he planning to do?" Lu Sui asked in shock.

Lu Taiyi fell silent for a moment, his expression growing complicated. "What else could it be, considering the phenomenon that has been elicited? He's naturally looking to break into the Ninth Transcendent Duke Stage."

Ninth-grade Transcendent Duke. These four words were enough to shake even Lu Sui, the leader of Golden Dragon Mountain. He was extremely clear about what this signified.

This was the true pinnacle of power on the divine continents. If the divine continents could produce a ninth-grade Transcendent before the critical battle, their odds of victory would rise drastically. However, how difficult was this task? Since ancient times, just how many brilliant and talented geniuses had died with a belly full of regrets, unable to take that final step?

"Is he not being a little too reckless?" Lu Sui asked. Li Luo was no longer an unknown individual. He was a combatant of the highest level in the divine continents, and he would shoulder a heavy responsibility in the upcoming battle. Thus, Lu Sui was naturally worried about him forcefully attempting to break through. If anything happened to Li Luo, the divine continents would suffer.

"He might be a little reckless, but there isn't much time left," said Lu Taiyi, sighing. "For a while now, I have sensed the worldly natural energy becoming extremely violent and riled up, specifically in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent. I think the Spiritual Resonance Cave will appear in the next two months."

Lu Sui fell silent. It was indeed about time. The Shadow World had been so quiet for the past few months, it was frightening. On top of that, all of the King Stage experts could sense the corruption within the world gradually intensifying. There was only one reason why the density of the corruption would change—the Ten Devil Kings of Sin.

No, now that the Desire Devil King of Sin was sealed, there were only nine. The Nine Devil Kings of Sin would be descending soon, and the decisive battle loomed nearer and nearer. Thus, Li Luo didn't have much time left.

"With my authority as the Mountain Leader, take all of the remaining aura of prosperity from Golden Dragon Mountain and send it to him. Although this is only a drop in the bucket, it can be considered a token of our appreciation," said Lu Sui as he grasped a golden dragon jade, forming a series of single handed seals and causing the engraving to awaken. It emanated a subtle aura.

The entire minor world began to shake, and countless golden coin manifestations arose from the towering mountains atop the dragon. Overflowing with worldly natural energy, the coins blotted out the starry sky and dove into the Absolute Resonance Halo behind Li Luo.

Li Luo's eyes had been tightly shut the whole time, his hands placed together in a seal that resembled the sun and the moon. He had fully blocked out his perception of the external world. The Absolute Resonance Halo behind him was like a black hole, ravenously devouring every scrap of energy and turning it into the foundation required to forge his ninth Duke Bergfried.

Another month flew by as the energy within him rumbled. During this period of time, the federations and alliances of the divine continents had discovered that the Other Kings within the Other Dominions that had descended had all vanished without a trace. Only some low-level creatures remained. In the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent, however, the density of corruption had swiftly reached a shocking level.

Upon seeing the changes to the Other Dominions, the Divine Continent Federation released the King Summoning Order to every corner of the divine continents. It was an order for all of the Kings to congregate in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent and prepare for the decisive battle.

For a period of time, the entire world bustled with activity. Although the Kings all knew that this was eventually going to happen, seeing that the day had come brought them incredible distress and fear. They knew that this was the battle that could very possibly decide the fate of the divine continents. They, who were normally adored and revered, would be no more than expendable bodies on the battlefield. It would be a meatgrinder that determined the fate of the world. No one could be sure they would escape unscathed.

Even so, no one backed down. They all knew that if this battle was lost, the Shadow World would occupy the divine continents. At that point, death would also greet them. Thus, rather than living a shadow of a life and suffering before the inevitable end, it was better to gamble everything for a glimmer of hope for all living creatures.

East Divine Continent, Xia Kingdom Capital, House Luolan Headquarters.

Jiang Qing'e held a broom and duster, personally cleaning several rooms in the inner courtyard until they were spick and span. As light shone through the windows, only a few specks of dust could be seen in the bright rays. Her golden eyes quietly took in this sight. The dancing specks of dust brought memories from her childhood flooding in like a tide. At that point in time, a little girl and a little boy were often laughing and playing here. Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan would sit on the steps and watch the two little ones play with smiles on their faces.

Although this memory was deeply imprinted in Jiang Qing'e's heart, it seemed so far away. Unknowingly, the little boy and girl had grown up, turning into esteemed experts who everyone respected. Yet in her heart, the joy she felt from this was less than the simple pleasures she experienced while young.

She lightly exhaled, placed down the cleaning tools, and left the room, shutting the doors tightly. Even she wasn't confident they would win the upcoming battle. Who knew when they would be able to come back here? Thus, she had personally tidied up everything and sealed the courtyard.

When Jiang Qing'e turned around, a dazzling light shone and her home clothes transformed into a suit of golden armor. It covered the entirety of her body, which was now riddled with glaring scars from the battles against the Other Kings over the years. She then hung a deep blue cloak behind her, handwoven by Tantai Lan. It had accompanied her all this time, and this decisive battle would be no exception. As it fluttered behind her, it danced with her flowing hair.

She then took a step forward, reappearing above the Xia Kingdom. From there, she spotted several familiar figures waiting for her. Pang Qianyuan, Lan Lingzi, Bai Mengmeng, and Yu Lang—the Xia Alliance's King Stage experts who would join her on the journey to the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent.

She looked down into the city and saw countless people there as well, all bowing deeply and worshipping her. Deafening prayer chants rose into the sky.

"May all the Kings return victorious!"

"May all the Kings return victorious!"

Jiang Qing'e saw the First Princess, Vice Principal Su Xin, Cai Wei, Yan Lingqing, and more faces she knew well in the crowd. All of their eyes were red, as no one knew if the Kings supporting the East Divine Continent would return from the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent.

Jiang Qing'e pursed her lips but didn't speak in the end. She suddenly turned, shooting across the horizon in a streak of light. Mighty streams of light that were surrounded by worldly natural energy followed closely behind her. The East Divine Continent's Kings were going to war in the Heavenly Origin Divine Continent!
