Chapter 0888: Unparalleled Purification Power

When the sharp and huge, golden blade light fell down from the sky, some of the Heavenly Star Hall's upper hall members looked surprised upon witnessing this domineering aura. The spectators from the Four Star Hall were even more stunned.

With this strike from Lu Jinguang, everyone could see how he had gotten into the upper hall.

Moreover, Lu Jinguang was not going to give his opponent any chance to retaliate. He had gone for a killing move right off the bat. Over the years, many had been defeated by this single strike of his.

As the crowd watched in awe, Jiang Qing'e lifted her beautiful, charming face. Her golden eyes were fixed on the falling blade light. She had witnessed many dazzling, gifted individuals in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College in the six months she had spent here. If they were in the Astral Sage College, they would surely be far superior when compared against Gong Shenjun and the First Princess.

For example, Lu Jinguang might just be a lower ranked individual in the upper hall here. However, many of the experienced Greater Heavenly Resonance cultivators in the outer divine continent wouldn’t be his match.

Everyone in the Heavenly Star Hall was talented enough to defeat opponents above their own tier, regardless of whether they were in the upper hall or lower hall.

This was one of the reasons why the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College could withstand the tides of time as the oldest college.

When Jiang Qing'e raised her slender, jade hands, her brilliant light resonant energy surged like a tidal wave. A copy of herself appeared behind her, and worldly natural light energy flowed endlessly.

Ninth-grade light resonance, Light Spirit Avatar.

This was the signature move of a ninth-grade resonance cultivator. With this, worldly natural energy would flow into the user endlessly, giving the cultivator exceptional stamina in a fight.

Moreover, the ninth-grade spirit avatar could also boost the power of one's resonance arts. Along with the emergence of the Light Spirit Avatar, Jiang Qing'e pointed her slender finger to the front. Light energy condensed at her fingertip and then floated outwards. A wild storm was summoned the moment it left her finger, and the light energy transformed into a holy flame of light.

The flame rose into the air. There was a clear cry at the next moment, and the flame of light morphed into a Phoenix. The Phoenix’s body was burning with the fearsome flame Jiang Qing'e had just released, and it transformed all of the worldly natural energy around it into the purest light energy.

"Duke Art, Incandescent Flame Phoenix!"

The Phoenix let out a cry and then flew straight towards the falling blade light. When the two clashed, a storm of energy swept up like a tornado with the sparks of flames flying out in all directions.

Luckily, there was an energy shield around the arena that kept the energy waves contained. Many of the student spectators were shocked to see a raging energy storm erupt from the collision.

Nonetheless, they kept their eyes fixed on the fierce battle taking place before them.

The two energies continued to erode and destroy each other. In the end, the Phoenix disappeared without a trace, while the golden blade-light had weakened considerably. When it reached Jiang Qing'e, it couldn't even get through the protective resonant aura around her body anymore.

When they witnessed this, the crowd burst out excitedly. Lu Jinguang's attack had been stopped by Jiang Qing'e.

One important factor was that Lu Jinguang was already deep into the Greater Heavenly Resonance Tier, while Jiang Qing'e was merely at the peak of the Lesser Heavenly Resonance Tier.

Was Jiang Qing'e given a chance because of Wei Chonglou's words earlier?

As the chatter continued amongst the crowd, the look in Lu Jinguang's eyes started to get serious. He was very sure that he had not held back.action

"Your ninth-grade light resonance is truly formidable. Is that an upper ninth-grade or lower ninth-grade?" As Lu Jinguang whispered these words to himself, his eyes became sharper. The air around him also became denser. As someone from the upper hall, he was clearly a talented individual himself. Even though ninth-grade resonances were strong, they might not be invincible.

At this moment, Lu Jinguang clapped his hands together, and a small, golden light appeared between his palms. At the point of contact, the light cut open his palm like a razor-sharp knife.

Fresh blood flowed out instantly and mixed with the golden light. In the next moment, the light left his palm and the resonant power around him surged up.

Before the gazes of the crowd, the golden light transformed into a radiant, golden sword.

The golden sword vibrated slightly, and three thin cracks formed on its blade. Golden light started flowing out of each one. From a distance, it looked as if there were three vertical eyes on the sword.

And the mysterious eyes were filled with endless energy.

Many of the Heavenly Star Hall members on the elevated platform changed their expressions as soon as they saw this. Without a doubt, this was the signature move that had made Lu Jinguang rise to fame.

He hovered in the air while he looked down at Jiang Qing'e. "Junior Jiang, if you can take this strike, I will give up my seat to you willingly," he said casually as he pressed the sword sigil in his hand.

"Duke Art, Imperial Fortress Sword Light: Tri-Eye Heavenly Sword."

Lu Jinguang pointed his finger out, and the Tri-Eye Heavenly Sword suddenly let out a shocking sword cry. Like a mighty, golden dragon piercing through the void, it slashed down directly towards Jiang Qing'e.

Jiang Qing'e stared at the golden sword that was slicing through the air. She could feel a chill run up her spine from facing the Tri-Eye Heavenly Sword directly. Evidently, her opponent was an extraordinary person.

Yet she remained undaunted by the strike and replied calmly, "There's no need for you to give up. I'll take it from you with my own strength."

Her slender, jade fingers formed mythical hand seals rapidly, and a phosphorescence glow appeared around her hands. For a moment, her snow-white skin looked so clean and pure that others would not dare to touch her.

At the same time, another mythical figure emerged behind Jiang Qing'e. This caught everyone by surprise.

It was another ninth-grade Light Spirit Avatar!

Now with two Light Spirit Avatars behind Jiang Qing'e, the worldly natural light energy around the space suddenly began to rush in, as if it was being pulled in by a very strong whirlpool.

The huge amount of energy was further refined by the two Light Spirit Avatars before flowing into Jiang Qing'e's body, making her resonant power spike up at an astonishing pace.

The crowd watched on in awe.

"What's that?!"

"Double ninth-grade light resonance?!"

"Oh my God, my eyes are going blind from the light!"

"What kind of monstrous talent is that?! Someone like this has probably only been seen a few times even in the Hallowed Coruscation Ancient College’s long history!"

"I've heard about this before, but it's my first time seeing it from Junior Jiang."

"I see. So this is why the Third Principal thinks so highly of her. After all, she wouldn’t have asked for her personally if it was just a ninth-grade light resonance. But… a dual ninth-grade light resonance is a totally different matter."

The surprised chatter continued among the spectators as everyone was wildly excited about the history that was unfolding before them. It was a really rare event even in an ancient college. With all these gifted individuals gathered here, not even dual resonance cultivators were considered rare. Similarly, a ninth-grade resonance would only rouse a few surprised faces.

But... someone with a dual ninth-grade light resonance before reaching the Duke Stage? It was the first time many of them had personally laid eyes on something so rare.

While everyone was overcome with wonder, Jiang Qing'e's clear face showed no signs of changes. She had completely shut off all the interference from the outside and was solely focused on channeling all her resonant power into activating this Duke Art taught to her by the Third Principal successfully.

"Duke Art, Pure Light World Sigil."

Along with her soft and gentle voice, Jiang Qing'e stretched out her hands, and the condensed, sacred light burst out. For a moment, it was like the whole place and everyone's vision had been enveloped by the holy light.

In fact, many sensed a feeling of unease rising within their hearts when touched by the holy light. It possessed extremely condensed purification power.

This was the signature trait of light resonances—they would purify anything not in line with them.

Many of them were astonished to see the purity and refinement of her light resonant energy. Ultimately, it had been refined by two ninth-grade light resonances.

The bright light filled the air. When the light sigil called out, many of the spectators watched on as it clashed with the Tri-Eye Heavenly Sword.

However, there was no deafening roar from the collision this time. When the two came into contact, the extremely concentrated power of purification permeated the air and the power of unparalleled sharpness in the metal resonant power dissipated into nothing.

Starting from the tip of the blade, the Tri-Eye Heavenly Sword gradually disappeared into thin air.

This was a truly frightening degree of purification. Many of the spectators felt a chill in their hearts when they witnessed this scene. The light sigil continued traveling through the air. A few moments later, it appeared right in front of Lu Jinguang.

As Lu Jinguang stared at the sigil in front of him, he could sense the light resonant energy rapidly eroding the resonant power in his body. Looking at the charming figure below, he laughed out bitterly and raised both arms. "Junior Jiang, it's your win."
