Absolute Resonance

Kingslaying! This word seemed to contain a mysterious power as not only the experts from the Xia Kingdom were left starry eyed but also the soldiers from the Five Guardian Armies! Everyone was flushed red with a feverish excitement. Fanaticism could be seen brewing in all their gazes. Kingslaying! There were few achievements since the beginning of time that could match this glory. Kings were lofty existences and were essentially untouchable to mortal men. Thus the very thought of it radiated its own charm. The Five Guardian Armies were a cornerstone of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li's longevity and had their own unique point of pride. This was because their combined power in a formation was sufficient to challenge even a King!

With numbers they could resist them!

The complete Five Guardian Armies could work together to form the Heavenly Dragon formation to reach this state.

However this was the ultimate state of the Five Guardian Armies and it wasn't easy to achieve either. It required a Grand Guardian General with a deep foundation and was powerful in their own right in order to harness the violent energies. Thus strictly speaking, it had been more than ten years since the Five Guardian Armies had even come together for the Heavenly Dragon formation due to the lack of a capable commander, and thus had not been able to demonstrate its power capable of challenging Kings. Yet it was this very day where they finally heard the summons to do so. Furthermore Li Luo's declaration was incredibly domineering.

They were going to slay a King! If such a battle achievement succeeded, their names would forever be part of the Five Guardian Armies's history, for the younger generations to admire and worship. Even the Guardian Generals like Li Foluo and Li Zhihuo's eyes turned heated as their desire to battle soared. "Form the ranks!"

Numerous voices shouted out as the Five Guardian Armies responded.

The Guardian Generals were the first to fly into the air, forming critical points of the formation as the rest of their armies spread out like a tide, taking the positions. Being able to assemble the Heavenly Dragon formation was a necessary drill that the Five Guardian Armies practiced daily, and thus these actions had already been engraved into their minds. As the Five Guardian Armies quickly took formation, worldly natural energy surged in like a deluge, creating a humongous energy vortex above them. After which the energy was channeled into the soldiers through pillars of resonant power. Everyone's figures were submerged by the immense tide of energy as the illusory figure of a titanic Heavenly Dragon took shape.

The Heavenly Dragon was coiled up, seemingly still in a state of hibernation as more than ten thousand violet gold scales glinted brightly. If one were to look closer, they would realize that each scale represented a single soldier from the Five Guardian Armies. Terrifying pressure radiated out from the illusory Heavenly Dragon, shattering the void all around it.

The wave of Others that was originally charging towards them were forcibly crushed into repugnant mush once they approached a radius of ten thousand feet around it. Li Luo glanced at the slumbering Heavenly Dragon as he waved his hand, causing the Grand Guardian General plaque to appear. With a roar like thunder, his six Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds began to shine as incredible amounts of resonant power was directed into it. "With my title as the Grand Guardian General, I summon the Heavenly Dragon to return to its throne!"

As his thunderous words reverberated all around him, layers of ripples of light began to spread across the illusory Heavenly Dragon figure. After a few moments, it began to stir as the tightly closed eyes opened, causing beams of violet gold light to shoot out, piercing through the sky.

Roar!
