Chapter 0994: Gift of Golden Smoke

The three golden lotus thrones seemed to possess a sentience of their own as they zoomed around like little fishes. As they wandered around the defensive encirclement, numerous blazing gazes were focused upon them.

Only two of the powers present had obtained three golden lotus thrones.

One was Li Luo's side, and the other was the Heavenly Origin Ancient College. Zong Sha had managed to gather quite a few of his fellow students, and they were the strongest group present. Thus, after a series of battles, they had managed to obtain three. Zhao Yan's side had only managed to secure two golden lotus thrones.

Other than the golden lotus thrones, Li Luo's side had secured many jade praying mats, which were second only to the prized thrones. Many rogue cultivators had attempted to obtain even one.

Li Fuling's gaze retracted from the three golden lotus thrones as she turned towards the crowd. "Everyone, the battle has come to an end, so we should decide how we should divide the spoils. Two of the three thrones were obtained by Li Lingjing, so she can decide how she wants to distribute them. She mentioned that Li Luo would get one, and so these two will belong to both her and Li Luo."

No one opposed these words as Li Lingjing had indeed contributed the most. It was precisely her merciless slaughter that had deterred many rogue cultivators from setting their sights on these seats.

"I've taken advantage of Cousin Lingjing here." Li Luo smiled.

Li Lingjing's slender hands were wrapped around the aquamarine staff, which looked as though it was made of jasper. The sight was exquisite and seemed to have a sense of grace to it. However, all who had seen her rampage knew that an uncountable number of individuals had been smashed to death by the seemingly soft girl.

She laughed gaily. "Cousin Li Luo, you defeated Zhao Shenjiang, so your contribution isn't minor either."

Li Luo modestly replied, "I'm not comparable to you! Even Zhao Yan was scared away."

The last golden lotus throne was obtained with Li Fuling and Li Guan's cooperation. Thus, the two drew lots to determine who would obtain it. Ultimately, Li Fuling was more fortunate and received it.

Li Guan's expression was unimaginably sorrowful, but he accepted the decision.

There was also a good number of jade praying mats, and thus, Li Guan, Li Jingtao, Li Fengyi, Lu Qingmei, and the rest all obtained one. This result was satisfying to all of them.

After all the seats were distributed, Li Luo flashed forward and appeared atop one of the golden lotus thrones. He sat down cross-legged, and he could instantly feel a cooling energy circulate within his body, causing the injuries from the previous battle to heal.

Most importantly, he could feel his three resonant palaces being stirred up and his resonance affinities becoming more active.

His heart trembled slightly. It seemed as though the upcoming baptism of the Golden Dew Platform would have a strong chance of raising his resonance grade. The only question was how much.

"I hope my woodearth and Thunder Dragon resonances can both raise a grade," Li Luo said in his heart.

"Oh yes, there's also the thing that the lantern bearer mentioned. He said I could do it on the Golden Dew Platform, but I'm not really sure where to start..." At this point, Li Luo frowned. The Sacred Void Resonance Sect no longer existed, and there was no information on how to cultivate their methods. Thus, things weren't so simple.

"Forget about it. I'll take things as they come." Li Luo didn't have any better plans, so he could only console himself.

At this point in time, numerous people had already sat cross-legged on their seats atop the Golden Dew Platform. The different types of seats were radiating colors of light, basking the platform in a beautiful glow.

Outside the platform were quite a few figures who stared at the scene in dismay. They had fought but failed, unable to obtain even the greenstone mats. Life was just so cruel, and not everything went along with their own wishes.

All of the seats had an owner, and it was at this point in time that the worldly natural energy above the platform began to emanate fluctuations. A moment later, vast amounts of energy poured downwards onto the Golden Dew Platform itself.

Scintillating golden light was released by the platform, making it look like the sun for an instant.

All of the Resonant Talismans in everyone's hands began to float on their own accord into the skies above.

After which, the Golden Dew Platform began to emit the crisp sound of flowing water. When one looked at the source of the sounds, they could see that the worldly natural energy had condensed into a golden stream.

Every droplet of water in the golden stream contained immense amounts of purified energy.

Everyone could feel their resonance affinities start to boil, thirsting for the golden stream of energy.

The golden stream gushed out and began to split into numerous smaller streams, each one slightly differentiated as they fell upon the individuals who were seated.

They varied in size, and those that fell upon the golden lotus thrones were the most majestic and full of purest energy. Clearly, the higher the grade of the seat, the stronger the baptism.

When the golden stream of energy descended onto Li Luo, whose eyes were full of anticipation, it entered the Resonant Talisman first. After a period of refinement, the energy dripped off it in the form of golden beads.

When the golden beads fell upon Li Luo's head, they turned into puffs of golden smoke, entering his body. The entire scene looked mysterious to everyone.

With the golden smoke entering his body, Li Luo's expression changed as his three resonances seemed to have lost all control, constantly shifting within the resonant palaces.

Within the waterlight resonant palace, the waterlight resonance which took the form of a pristine lake began to kick up humongous waves whilst flashing with radiant light.

In the woodearth resonant palace, the towering tree that was rooted in the earth began to shake as green motes of light started to flit around its branches gaily.

The Thunder Dragon resonant palace was no different. Thunder clouds blanketed the skies and a dragon's silhouette zoomed around, belching bolts of lightning.

The golden smoke was as attractive to the resonances as eighth-grade spirit liquids and purifying lights. In fact, the smoke acted in a much more direct fashion.

Li Luo examined the golden smoke within his body and lightly sighed as he started to distribute it amongst his resonant palaces.

Fifty percent entered the woodearth resonant palace, forty percent to the Thunder Dragon resonant palace, and the last bit was given to the waterlight resonant palace. The waterlight resonance was already at the eighth-grade, so the requirements for further advancement were much higher. Upgrading the other two was a better option than focusing on it.

As the golden smoke permeated the resonant palaces, they greedily sucked it in, and its effects were shocking to Li Luo.

The effects were most obvious on the two weaker resonances.

In the woodearth resonant palace, the gigantic tree that covered the skies began to grow at a speed visible to the naked eye. Its branches and leaves increased in size and density, creating a lush appearance. Every branch and leaf was swaying gently, filled with endless amounts of vitality, and the brown soil underneath was also expanding in size.

The earth resonance's purpose was to support the wood resonance and allow it to grow even higher and more stably.

Endless thunder clouds began to materialize inside the Thunder Dragon resonant palace, and the dragon inside them seemed to be gradually transforming. Its body increased in size prodigiously, and lifelike apparitions would emerge from the dense thunderclouds, with a majesty to behold.

Li Luo was elated as he could feel his resonances strengthening. Both were rapidly approaching a critical point of evolution.

"What wondrous effects. It’s equivalent to tempering each resonance with a large number of seventh-grade spirit liquids." Li Luo sighed. Spirit liquids and purifying lights were very expensive, and the time required for one to be utilized was not short. But all of this was accelerated by the golden smoke.

"The golden smoke created by the Golden Dew Platform is not simple. There should be a limit to how much can be created," Li Luo thought to himself. The effect of it was so amazing that it was bordering on perverseness! If the Golden Dew Platform could create this golden smoke on a whim, the Sacred Void Resonance Sect would have been truly frightening, possessing power beyond comprehension.

However, Li Luo didn't continue to think about such things. As more and more golden smoke surged in his direction, his body was shrouded in such a thick layer that all sounds from the outside world faded away.

The only thing he could hear was the pounding of the waves, the rustling and swaying of the tree, as well as the roars of the Thunder Dragon.

Golden smoke continued to wrap around the seats on the Golden Dew Platform, and everything fell silent. Everyone was quietly enjoying the gifts bestowed upon them.
