Chapter 622 - Luo River's Spirit

Luo Li casually strode forth with lotus-like steps. Along with every step, her default silvery long hair was turning black.

In a few breath's time, her radiant and cold hair had become as black as ink.

Naturally, the changes were not only limit to her hair, but even her temperament was also changing along with it. If she was usually serene like a lotus in a deep valley with outstanding independent charm, the current her was emitting a cold chill. Her crystal-clear eyes were filled with chill, as if she was a queen that overlooked everyone like ants before her throne.

Up in the sky, Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe blinked their eyes as they looked at Luo Li's current state with heavy gazes. Clearly, they had a strange, dangerous feeling.

However, they did not speak as they knew that Luo Li naturally had her own trump cards. However, they also weren't people that were easy to mess with; and, right now, with the both of them joining hands, it would definitely not be an easy task for Luo Li to face the two of them, even if she possessed a powerful trump card.

"Haha, looks like you're planning to face the two of us?" Xue Tianhe spoke with an eerie gaze and a weird laughter.

Luo Li indifferently looked at him without replying to his words. She lightly placed both of her hands together and formed an ancient seal as her soft voice resounded.

"Luo River."

Boom!

When the two words rang out, a tornado abruptly formed in this region. The Spiritual Energy existing between the heavens and earth was also going berserk.

Intense fluctuations appeared behind Luo Li; and, after that, under countless startled gazes, a vast river appeared, and the end of the river couldn't be seen.

That river was extremely radiant. It was wriggling as if it was an ancient dragon, leaving others stunned by it. Although this river was just an illusion, the vastness that it gave off left countless others in a daze.

It was so much so that even the Deans of the various Spiritual Academies had slightly changed, startled expressions on their faces. The Five Great Deans blinked with graveness as they looked at the ancient river.

Rustle.

Vaguely, there was a clear sound of flowing water, and within that sound, something appeared as if it harboured a peculiar energy that was intoxicated by it.

Luo Li still maintained a calm expression as she formed seals with one hand before her chest.

Boom!

Within the wriggling ancient river, a torrential war pillar instantly soared into the sky as everyone's expressions changed while witnessing the river take the form of a colossal pair of wings that unfolded.

The Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth instantly turned violent.

The pillar of water turned into mist as it descended, revealing a light image that was roughly a hundred feet high. The fighter was slim and graceful as it hovered above the ancient river and her appearance was somewhat similar to Luo Li, but at the same time, it wasn't. She lightly flapped her wings as an indescribable beauty was being emitted. Everyone in this world lost colour in comparison to her.

She was like the embodiment of beauty.

Also, everyone could sense a gush of powerful Spiritual Energy fluctuations around her.

They were all dumbfounded as they watched the scene.

Up in the sky, the faces of Ji Xuan and Xue Tianhe couldn't help changing. The former had his brows tightly locked together, while the latter seemed to have figured something out as a smear of astonishment flashed across his eyes, before he cried, "That's the… Luo River's Spirit?"

"Luo River's Spirit?"

Ji Xuan's heart was also startled as his pupils shrank, "The most mysterious Spiritual Beast that was Rank 5 of the Myriad Beast Records' Earth Ranking?"

In the Great Thousand World, the Myriad Beast Records was divided into two rankings, and the Earth Ranking was a category of Spiritual Beasts; thus, it was sometimes known as the Spiritual Beast Records. Within the Spiritual Beast Records, there was a type of Spiritual Beast that was Ranked 5th, the Luo River's Spirit.

From a certain angle, the Luo River's Spirit was the most mysterious type of existence in the Spiritual Beast Records, since it wasn't born through a bloodline, but a mysterious type of existence that used the Luo River as the mother's body.

In the primordial times of the Great Thousand World, there was a mysterious river known as the Luo River. That river seemed to have existed from the primordial times, being extremely ancient and the power contained within it was endless and profound. However, it was destroyed in a dreadful tribulation from a foreign invasion. After that, it was extremely rare for the Luo River's Spirit to appear.

The Luo River's Spirit required a harsh condition to be born. Not only did it require the Luo River to act as a mother's body, but it also required someone to be perfectly compatible with it to fuse with when it was still in the infant stage within the mother's body. Otherwise, the instant a Luo River's Spirit was born, it would disappear into nothingness and fade away into the Luo River.

The fusion was extremely bizarre as well. Not only would it not cause any harm to the main body, it would complement both parties on the path of cultivation. Thus, it was known as something that cultivators would drool at.

In the primordial times, before the Luo River was destroyed, there was a group of experts that was extremely compatible with the Luo River's Spirit, and this particular group was a powerful force that played a huge role in protecting the Great Thousand World from that tribulation.

But now that the Luo River was destroyed, it was clearly impossible for that group to return to glory like it had in the past. Thus, the Luo River's Spirit gradually became the most mysterious Spiritual Beast within the Spiritual Beast Records.

The four upper rankings of the Spiritual Beast Records were the Four Great Spirits: the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird and the Black Tortoise. However, they were only symbolic as the bloodlines possessed by those four were impossible to be restricted to the Spiritual Beast Records. Not only did they possess high rankings within the Spiritual Beast Records, it was even more fearsome in the Myriad Beast Records' Heavenly Rankings, which was also commonly known as the Divine Beast Records, in which their rankings were also at the top ranks. The sole reason why those four occupied the top four rankings of the Spiritual Beast Records was that they were required to get through their infant stages before becoming a genuine Divine Beasts.

Thus, speaking from a certain angle, the first rankings of the Spiritual Beast Records could be considered the Luo River's Spirit, which was at the fifth ranking…

Furthermore, the Luo River's Spirit also possessed the ability to evolve. Although it wasn't bound by bloodlines, it was extremely dreadful when it evolved, the Luo River's Spirit would become the Luo River's God. The strength it possessed could only be rivalled by those Sovereign Divine Beasts that had been cultivating for countless years.

This was why the Luo River's Spirit was extremely rare at this time, which was the reason why Xue Tianhe and Ji Xuan's faces were so unsightly when they saw Luo Li summon that image.

"She's actually the host of a Luo River's Spirit, how is that possible…?" Ji Xuan muttered with his brows knitted.

"Although the Luo River has already been destroyed, there are still remnants of it, and within the Luo God Clan, there is a hidden Luo River. However, I never expected that that puny remnant of the Luo River could actually give birth to a Luo River's Spirit, really… what good fortune!" Xue Tianhe's face was ashen as he spoke with his teeth gritting.

"So that's the case." Ji Xuan nodded his head from his explanation.

"Hmph, but there's nothing to fear. That Luo River's Spirit is still at its infant stage. It hasn't fully grown up yet!" Xue Tianhe spoke with a cold snort.

Ji Xuan's gaze flickered as it returned back to indifference.

"Then, I'll take a look, and see just what you can do to me." Xue Tianhe's gaze was eerie. Now that Wen Qingxuan had been defeated, it wasn't possible for Luo Li to stand alone. Even if she revealed such an astonishing trump card of hers, he, Xue Tianhe also wasn't trash that could be dealt with so easily.

He made an eerie smile towards Luo Li as he issued a deep roar. His arms, which were hideous and scarlet-red in colour to begin with, were inserted into the head of the Demonic Blood Beast. After that, everyone witnessed his arms violently wriggling, as if a fresh blood-red being was constantly being injected into the Demonic Blood Beast.

As blood surged in, the hideous Demonic Blood Beast grew even redder in colour. The spikes that were protruding from its back were slowly extending as it became even more sinister and dreadful.

Roar!

The Demonic Blood Beast faced the sky as it roared, the soaring ominous aura instantly made the colour of the heavens and earth change.

"Demonic Blood Bell!"

When Xue Tianhe's roar resonated, a bloody light suddenly shot out from the Demonic Blood Beast's mouth as it expanded and transformed into a colossal bloody bell.

The colossal bloody bell looked as if it was made from blood. Even at this moment, blood was still dripping off it. On the surface of the bell, countless hideous faces were issuing screams that resounded between the heavens and earth.

Furthermore, those screams seemed like they had the power to affect the heart of a person as countless students around the Battle Stage felt the Spiritual Energy in their bodies going slightly out of control, even their blood showed signs of boiling.

Boom!

The Demonic Blood Beast brandished its fist as it heavily slammed against the Demonic Blood Bell. In an instant, torrential ominous aura engulfed the heavens and earth as a hundred foot bloody light gushed forth. It was like a roaring dragon that ran along the bizarre sound waves that shot towards Luo Li.

Luo Li raised her eyes. There weren't any ripples on her gorgeous face. She only raised her jade-like hand, and the huge image in possession of absolute beauty also lifted her hand.

Boom!

A surging stream that looked gentle charged and gently clashed with the bloody light.

Creak! Creak!

In that moment of collision, there weren't any Spiritual Energy impacts spreading out. However, the bloody light instantly broke down as it was dissolved by that clear and gentle stream of water.

The Primordial Luo River originally possessed the ability to dissolve all things in the world.

Smashing Xue Tianhe's attack with a move, Luo Li did not provide him any time to recover as she formed seals with her hand and the clear stream of water converged into torrential waves. In a flash, it was already above the Demonic Blood Bell as it engulfed it.

Creak! Creak!

There was a series of creaking sounds, before the Demonic Blood Bell was dissolved into nothingness upon being engulfed by the waves.

Xue Tianhe's face instantly changed.

However, before he could unleash another wave of attacks, he felt the surrounding space being chaotic. After that, he blinked his eyes as he saw the surrounding space being torn apart. Torrential clear water rushed out as it turned into a lake, trapping him within.

That attack that looked gentle made Xue Tianhe feel fatal danger.
