Chapter 1495: Thunderclap Tree Passage
As Li Luo's squad rushed towards Thunder Finger Peak, the sounds of thunder boomed in their ears and they could see thunder energy blanketing the skies and covering the earth before them. He carefully observed the environment ahead, noticing that there were countless tall, silver trees dotting the mountain. These trees were anything but ordinary, crackling with silver lightning and occasionally letting out rumbling booms. Amongst the silver trees were several passages that led into the depths and peak of Thunder Finger Peak.
The other peak squads similarly rushed onto Thunder Finger Peak. The majority of them had leaders with thunder resonances or something with a similar affinity. When they entered, they immediately chose a passageway and rushed in to save on time.
However when they reached the passageways, the thunder trees rumbled and streaks of silver thunderbolts flooded towards them with fearsome momentum.
When faced with the bombardment of silver thunderbolts, the numerous squads had their progress forcibly slowed down.
Some of the experts trusted in their strength and attempted to fly over the trees. However, there were dense thunderclouds above the mountain, and they released bolts of thunder that were even more terrifying, critically injuring the arrogant sons who attempted to bypass the trials.
It was clear for all to see that the only way to ascend to the peak was to follow the rules and take one of the land-bound paths to the end.
Li Luo even saw Fang Xingyun amongst one of the squads attempting to climb Thunder Finger Peak. He possessed a Thunder Dragon resonance, so it was no surprise he had chosen this mountain. Zhou Jun's squad was the fastest around. He utilized his upper eighth-grade Duke strength, and his eight Duke Bergfrieds flashed with lightning of their own, blocking off the silver thunderbolts that attempted to stop him.
Li Luo didn't hesitate either. After some close observation, he took the lead and three Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds appeared above him, pouring out Divine Mist and forming a barrier that smashed apart any thunderbolts that attempted to harm him.
Occasionally, a stray thunderbolt would penetrate through his defenses, but an instant later, tyrannical frost resonant power would sweep over, freezing the thunderbolt before it crashed onto the ground, breaking into tiny brittle pieces of ice. Unsurprisingly, it was Lu Qing'er who took action. Her two icy Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds flowed with a frigid aura that seemed capable of freezing anything and everything.
