Chapter 0313: Seventh-grade Waterlight Resonance

Li Luo was shivering uncontrollably in the center of the lake, feeling a little grouchy. He was telling the truth though! When he fought the likes of Wang Hejiu and Duze Beixuan, whatever little glimmer of sentience their resonant powers possessed had been drowned out by sheer power. Dual resonances were super awesome.

"Dual resonances are very powerful, but you wield them like an ogre's club. Sheer power, used in a short and furious blast. Wang Hejiu and Duze Beixuan aren't that much stronger than you, so they crumbled before it. But your opponents will only get stronger from hereon. Overwhelming them directly with brute force will not always work.

"At that time, whoever wins the struggle of sentient resonant powers will have the upper hand in battle," Chi Chan said.

Li Luo nodded seriously. He knew the truth of it. His dual resonances were very strong, but they cost a lot of energy. They couldn't last.

"Your primary resonance has gained enough power for the breakthrough, but you are short one last step. That is resonant sentience."

She paused for a moment. "Which is strange. At this stage, the sentience usually comes naturally. For some reason, it is harder for you. Perhaps it has something to do with the dual resonances..."

Li Luo squirmed a little. She knew that he had dual resonances, but she didn't know he actually had two more secondary affinities behind them.

Water primary, light secondary.

These two were compatible elements, or at least they had been up till this point. If they gained sentience, there would inevitably be friction. Perhaps the stronger water resonance would suppress the weaker light resonance. That had to be what was holding him back.

Which meant that all of this was caused by the upset balance between his primaries and secondaries.

If he wanted to get out of this situation, he would have to strengthen the weaker light resonance. At the very least, it would have to be strong enough to shrug off the water resonance's pressure on it. Once it achieved sentience, then things would be smooth sailing again.

His eyes lit up with new energy. "Mentor, I know what to do."

Mentor Chi Chan took a look at her student, then she stood up on the water’s surface. A wave of water rose up around her, and when the swirling subsided, she was gone.

Li Luo himself used his water resonant power to help him float on the lake's surface.

He sorted out his thoughts while the sun dried him. The light resonance was secondary. Even when he was absorbing worldly natural energy, his primary resonance would naturally absorb more energy.

If he wanted to change that state of affairs, then he would have to begin from the absorption process.

Li Luo stretched out his hand and commanded the water to rise. He formed it into palm-sized water mirrors and arrayed them around him.

Tilting them all upwards, he directed sunlight onto his body.

He could feel his light energy rising to the fore.

Li Luo used the 12 Step Weave energy cultivation art. However, this time he purposely suppressed his water resonance absorption in order to balance his powers.

Although this was usually a detrimental thing to do, Li Luo's aim here was not raw progress, but building harmony.

With his calibrations, the 12 Step Weave helped bring both resonant powers into his body at approximately an equal rate now.

Waterlight resonant power flowed through his veins.

When it reached his first resonant palace, it flowed into his resonance seed.

Li Luo could sense slight tremors from his first resonant palace. Markings were starting to appear on the surface of his resonance seed.

His resonant power was changing.

Li Luo's heart leaped. As hypothesized, the imbalance between his powers was what had been limiting him. They had been locked in an intangible struggle to reach sentience, and of course his secondary resonance had lost. Allowed to take their natural course, his water resonance would have awakened first, followed by his light resonance much later.

That would have delayed his overall progress significantly. And Li Luo did not have that kind of time to spare.

The Artificers' Fair was tomorrow. If he didn't pull a seventh-grade waterlight resonance out of his ass, then the four-star formula would not have as sensational an impact as he had hoped.

Encouraged that his method was working, Li Luo calmed himself down and continued.

Within his body, an equal amount of water and light energy continued to enter his waterlight resonant palace.

The patterns on his resonance seed started to deepen and clarify.

Approximately two hours passed.

Suddenly, Li Luo heard a loud humming from his resonant palace.

As if a thousand sparrows had started hopping and chirruping all at once.

It was the resonant power within him, awakening.

Li Luo opened his eyes. He could feel that his resonant power had not increased that much, but now the power came to him more easily. His mastery over it was much better.

He sent forth an experimental thread of energy, forming a spout of water.

In the core of his spout was a thick band of glowing light.

Li Luo flicked out his finger, cutting through the surface of the lake.

He judged that both the speed and power were much stronger than before, and he grinned to himself.

He had fed this thing millions of skygold over the last half a year. Finally, he was a seventh-grade. It was harder than raising a child, for crying out loud!
