Chapter 1150: Blood Egg Changes
Everyone looked towards the floating egg with frowns on their faces when they heard Li Luo's question.
Just looking at that object gave them the chills.
"Let's see if we can destroy it," Feng Lingyuan said. The egg was creepy-looking, and even though they did not know its purpose, they knew that destroying it was important.
No one objected to her suggestion. Resonant power surged up and attacks flew towards the egg directly.
Bang! Bang!
It looked like the students were throwing pebbles into the ocean. Everyone's attacks struck the egg, but there was barely any effect on it.
Only one stream of resonant power caused a little hiss when it landed on the egg.
It was the light resonant power from Yue Zhiyu.
"It seems like only light resonant power is effective on this thing," Wei Chonglou said with a frown.
Feng Lingyuan turned towards Yue Zhiyu and asked, "We'll have to trouble Student Yue, then. Shall we leave the egg to you while we go up and save those hanging students?"
There was nothing Yue Zhiyu could do about it. Her light resonant power was the only thing that had any effect, so she nodded in agreement.
"Let me help her too," Li Luo suddenly said. He could transform some of his resonant power into light resonant power after all. This would be much more efficient than just having Yue Zhiyu working on it alone. With how disturbing the blood egg was, it was best to get rid of it as soon as possible.
Feng Lingyuan and the rest nodded before they all headed off.
Li Luo walked over to Yue Zhiyu and stood by the side of the blood pool.
Yue Zhiyu glanced overat Li Luo and said, "I am really curious. How is your light resonant power so strong? If I am not wrong, your light resonance should only be a secondary resonance."
Li Luo chuckled a little, but he did not answer her. He channeled his resonant power directly into the mysterious Auric Halo, creating a bright glow. Light resonant power burst out and flew towards the blood egg in the center of the pool.
Yue Zhiyu pouted when Li Luo dodged her question. She concluded that it was probably some highly secretive art from the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. It was a truly rare skill, but it wasn't as if she had never heard of it.
She raised her jade hands, and pure divine light resonant power poured out.
The light resonant power from the two of them continuously shot towards the blood egg. Soon, the vicious face on the surface of the egg grew agitated.
The bloody aura it exuded seemed to be getting slightly weaker each second.
It was indeed much more efficient with Li Luo and Yue Zhiyu working together.
Meanwhile, the others went on to help the skinless students who were hanging off the Ten Thousand Skin Devil Heart Pillar. Those students were extremely miserable. Their skins had been peeled off and their bodies were covered in blood. Something that resembled a bone had been inserted into each their heads.
All the students were frightened when they saw this scene. At the same time, they were infuriated.
Damned Others!
Fortunately, these students were still alive despite the torture they had endured. They would be able to recover after getting sufficient treatment back in their colleges.
However, the skin that had been stripped off of them would likely require the aid of spirit medicine to heal.
As more and more students were saved, Yue Zhiyu and Li Luo were also making progress. Nearly one layer of the blood egg had been purified by them.
However, no one sensed that there had been some new bubbling activity on the surface of the blood pool as they were busy rescuing the students.
Pop!
There was a loud splash came the blood pool, and something pounced out of the pool with a loud scream.
This sudden development caught Li Luo and Yue Zhiyu by surprise. Their eyes turned immediately, and they saw a piece of flesh hurtling out of the pool.
The piece of flesh was around the size of a human head. The most scary part was that it had a face on it.
The face belonged to none other than the Blood Coffin Carrier that they assumed had been slain earlier!
So he wasn't dead! When the body exploded earlier, one piece of flesh had fallen into the blood pool. They did not know if it was intentional, but it had been lying in wait ever since then.
Clearly, its target was the blood egg!
Li Luo was startled by this sudden development. As if by reflex, he flicked his fingers, and the light resonant power that was originally targeted at the blood egg flew towards the piece of flesh instead.
He did not know what the Blood Coffin Carrier was planning. However, it was surely nothing good, so he had decided to stop the enemy first.
When the piece of flesh saw Li Luo's incoming attack, its human face gave out a sharp and dry cackle. An arrow of blood shot out from its mouth and tried to deflect Li Luo's light resonant power.
However, the Blood Coffin Carrier was extremely weak right now, so his blood arrow was unable to neutralize Li Luo's resonant power completely. Some of the light resonant power managed to strike the piece of flesh.
"Argh!"
The face of the Blood Coffin Carrier was screaming in pain and his flesh began to melt quickly. He knew that this was his last chance. He endured the excruciating pain from the light resonant power and landed atop the blood egg. When they came into contact, the piece of flesh fused into the egg.
Suddenly, a frightening amount of corruption surged and huge waves kicked up in the pool of blood.
Everyone's attention was drawn by this sudden change.
The faces of Feng Lingyuan, Wang Kong, and Wei Chonglou changed as they hurried over.
"What's happening?!" they asked
Yue Zhiyu recovered from her surprise at this point and explained the matters to them. Everyone's faces turned dark as they listened. Their eyes were now focused on the egg.
"The Blood Coffin Carrier had its eyes on the egg right from the beginning. When he saw that things weren't going well, he abandoned his body immediately. A part of his flesh hid within the blood pool and was waiting for a chance to fuse with it." Feng Lingyuan felt a little regretful now that she thought about it. She had been too careless earlier, thinking that they had actually killed off the Blood Coffin Carrier completely.
"Let's work together, everyone. We must destroy the blood egg at all costs!" Li Luo shouted solemnly.
Now that the Blood Coffin Carrier had fused with the blood egg, no one knew what was going to happen.
Feng Lingyuan and the group gathered everyone immediately. Numerous streams of resonant power rained down upon the egg mercilessly.
Suddenly, a strange and shrill laugh could be heard coming out of the blood egg, and its surface began to wriggle. Slowly, the twisted face of the Blood Coffin Carrier appeared on it.
"Fools. I've fused with the True Devil Egg. In the near future, I'll finally become a True Devil!" The Blood Coffin Carrier laughed out viciously. The liquid from the blood pool swept up and turned into a blood water curtain.
The attacks that landed on the blood water were instantly absorbed into it.
At the same time, a terrifying undulation was emitted from the blood egg.
"True Devil?!"
The faces of Feng Lingyuan and the rest changed completely. A True Devil had the strength of a Duke. If the Blood Coffin Carrier managed to finish his breakthrough, none of them would stand a chance against him.
However, just when everyone was panicking, a violent and chaotic wave of energy suddenly erupted from the egg, and a faint light could be seen within it.
"Argh!"
Instantly, the expression of the Blood Coffin Carrier turned into one of pain and fury.
"Argh. Damn brat! Stupid light resonant power!" he screamed out.
Li Luo was slightly taken aback for a moment before he understood what was happening. This was due to the light resonant power that had struck the piece of flesh earlier! His light resonant power had not been neutralized and had even been brought into the blood egg when the two fused together, causing some sort of internal damage.
Everyone watched in astonishment. The blood egg trembled violently as the struggle within continued to escalate.
In the end, the crazy screams coming from the Blood Coffin Carrier slowly died down. Just when the crowd felt a hint of relief, the egg suddenly split into two.
Half of the blood egg turned into a bloody light and escaped, shooting across the air directly.
Meanwhile, the other half charged towards Li Luo.
Li Luo was startled by this development, and he hastily retreated in a flash.
Seeing this, Feng Lingyuan and the rest stepped up to help immediately. Resonant power surged up as they tried to destroy the half that was attacking him.
However, the egg was like a vicious beast—it shattered their attacks and continued chasing after Li Luo.
A determined light flickered across Li Luo's eyes, and he held up his sword and chopped down directly.
When the blade came into contact with the egg, the egg fell apart like mud. It flowed along the blade and eventually came into contact with Li Luo's hand.
The remnants of the blood egg immediately tunneled into his body.
Li Luo's face turned extremely ugly when he saw this.
