Chapter 1379: Desperate Straits
The void began to fracture with increasing speed as the dark-red flames surged. Everything it passed by disintegrated, including the Sword Embryo and the goddess of light.
Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e grunted as the energy in their bodies began to churn violently. Blood leaked from the corners of their mouths, and they could sense an overbearing and burning energy enter their bodies. This was the power of karmic flames. The flames blazing around the pagoda swamped towards their Duke Arts and infiltrated their bodies, burning them from within.
The flames were so that tyrannical ordinary resonant power was unable to extinguish them. Ordinary individuals would only be able to watch helplessly as the flames ignited their entire bodies and reduced them to ashes.
However, Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e had methods to protect themselves.
Li Luo immediately roused the Acquired Resonance Flame and used its exceptional refining abilities to resist and to destroy the karmic flames entirely.
Meanwhile, Jiang Qing'e borrowed the aid of her exceptionally pure light resonant power to purify them.
That said, they didn't relax just yet. The karmic flames that invaded their bodies were just a minor issue. The true problem, the humongous pagoda that was pressing down on them, was still descending. The duo solemnly looked at the giant pagoda that was coming from the skies. Qin Lian had far too many advantages over them, and even though they had tried their best, they couldn’t overcome them.
There was no choice. The gap between them was immense. If it were anyone else, even if they were two sixth-grade Dukes, they might also have been left in utter despair.
Bang! The pagoda moved downwards once more, and dark-red karmic flames surged towards them once again. The void surrounding the pagoda had transformed into a black hole. Above Li Luo and Jiang Qing'e were four majestic Ten-Pillar Duke Bergfrieds that resembled unconquerable walls, blocking the descent of the flames.
