Chapter 1282: The Expression Before Death
"Foolish ants!"
Lin Mu stood with his hands behind his back, not even bothering to use a spell.
Zheng!
A light hum, as the Ghost Tribulation gleefully chimed, like a hyena spotting prey, rushing towards the three Tribulation Thought Blades in the sky.
The terrifying pressure seemed able to shatter the void itself.
Where it passed, it left ripples, causing the void to tremble violently.
Boom!
The power of the Ghost Tribulation was revealed beyond a doubt, what terror among the millions of thoughts from Fourth Tribulation Thunder forming a Tribulation Thought Treasure.
At least, no one present had ever seen a Tribulation Thought Treasure of this level!
Leading the charge was the Tribulation Thought Knife formed of those hundreds of thoughts from Five Tribulation Thunder Overlords!
Hundreds of thoughts from Five Tribulations Thunder capable of ruining heaven and earth.
But as the Ghost Tribulation approached, all thoughts from Five Tribulation Thunder began to tremble.
The terrifying Ghastly Qi instantly enveloped all thoughts from Five Tribulations, with a terrifying pressure as if the sky would collapse!
"This is not Fourth Tribulation Thunder!"
"Ahhh... every thought is comparable to Five Tribulations!"
"How is this possible!"
"Isn’t it said that no Magic Artifact can be used in the Forbidden Sand Sea, what is this ghost thing!"
"We’re doomed!"
"Lin Wudi..."
The hundreds of overlords, each with different thoughts, forced into union with secret methods, could no longer maintain a unified mind in the face of fear.
Before the Ghost Tribulation arrived, the Tribulation Thought Knife began to collapse.
Constantly, thoughts of Thunder Tribulations peeled from it.
Crack!
Crack!
Those peeled-off sporadic thoughts were shattered in an instant!
They couldn’t resist the pressure from the Ghost Tribulation at all!
Bang!
A loud bang as the Tribulation Thought Knife collided with the Ghost Tribulation.
Like striking an egg against a rock, it was instantly destroyed!
Swish!
Swish!
The Tribulation Thought Blades from Zai Si Patriarch and Luo Chen instantly retreated, appearing thousands of miles away!
The Tribulation Thought Blades turned human again, their eyes filled with astonishment!
"How is this possible!"
"Lin Wudi is actually this formidable!"
Both were shocked by Lin Wudi’s terrifying power in annihilating those Five Tribulations thoughts.
"Is that a... Tribulation Thought Treasure in his hand?"
As they clearly saw the Ghost Tribulation revolving around Lin Wudi, their matters became more peculiar.
Such items as Tribulation Thought Treasures have once appeared in Heavenly Realm.
All these overlords had heard of them.
Yet, Tribulation Thought Treasures are just a fleeting splash in the long river of history.
Because they were entirely composed of thoughts from Thunder Tribulations.
For a Tribulation Transcender, differentiating even one Thunder Tribulation Thought is extremely tough.
If not differentiated during a tribulation, restoring a Thunder Tribulation Thought takes many years ordinarily!
Even a million-year accumulation would at most yield ten thousand Thunder Tribulation Thoughts.
A Tribulation Thought Treasure composed of that few Thunder Tribulation Thoughts is not worth a mention.
Hence, this school quickly vanished from Heavenly Realm.
None expected that this school would be revived in Forbidden Sand Sea by Lin Wudi.
Hundreds of thousands of Fourth Tribulation Thunder Thoughts comparable to Five Tribulations!
Just thinking about it made their scalp tingle.
𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
Not to mention Lin Wudi’s display of overpowering strength from Fourth Tribulation against the Five Tribulations Overlords.
Even without that ghastly Tribulation Thought Treasure, Lin Wudi could crush those Five Tribulations Thoughts, perhaps even battling them!
Two years!
Less than two years in Forbidden Sand Sea!
Lin Wudi already possesses the power to battle Six Tribulation Thoughts without borrowing from Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars!
"Lin Wudi, you’re truly strong!"
Luo Chen stared at Lin Wudi, speaking with a steady voice: "Our Heaven’s Mandate Organization has deep connections, liaising with Ten Thousand Realms, if you join us, Immortal Path is within reach!"
He and Zai Si Patriarch were just a Thunder Tribulation Thought each, and thus not afraid of being killed by Lin Wudi.
But he wanted to reconcile the grudges between Heaven’s Mandate Organization and Lin Wudi.
Such a monster shouldn’t be opposed!
Zai Si Patriarch’s expression shifted with urgent thoughts.
He pondered how to transmit this information.
Such heaven-defying Lin Wudi couldn’t be provoked by the Black List Leaders!
If their true selves knew nothing and became enemies with Lin Wudi, they’d likely face death!
One shouldn’t oppose the Great Fate Bearer indeed!
Lin Mu said indifferently: "Pathetic! Haven’t noticed anything odd yet?"
"Pathetic? Odd?"
Luo Chen, puzzled, didn’t understand why Lin Wudi mentioned these.
Nor did he understand why Lin Wudi had been acting oddly.
"Luo Chen! Look over there!"
In deep thought, Zai Si Patriarch glimpsed something, startling even this Six Tribulation Overlord.
Luo Chen looked in confusion, gasping in shock.
At the site where those Five Tribulation Overlord Thoughts shattered, hundreds of talismans quietly floated, conspicuous.
"This..."
Luo Chen finally sensed something amiss.
Those talismans were extraordinary but shouldn’t be this wondrous.
Lin Wudi’s ghastly Tribulation Thought Treasure could even battle the Six Tribulation Overlords!
This terrifying weapon hadn’t shattered those talismans!
Plus, with horror, he saw those talismans floating and vibrating at a strange frequency!
"Do you know why I didn’t pursue and eliminate your thoughts just now?"
Lin Mu smiled a cryptic smile at Luo Chen and Zai Si Patriarch.
Both felt a sinister vibe from Lin Wudi’s smile.
"Because I want to see your expressions before death, it’d be quite amusing..."
Luo Chen and Zai Si puzzled, just about to inquire when change suddenly occurred!
The hundreds of talismans began to glow with resplendent light, seemingly human-shaped.
...
Outside Forbidden Sand Sea, the erstwhile Tianfang Crossing site.
Hundreds of black-robed figures sat cross-legged, seemingly in anticipation.
The masked leader, identical to Luo Chen, was Luo Chen’s true self.
"Strange, why do I suddenly feel uneasy..."
Luo Chen’s eyes flashed open during meditation, filled with doubt.
Just then, startled cries arose.
"What’s happening? Why is my body disappearing?"
"What’s going on? My leg..."
"Everyone wake up!"
"Something’s wrong!"
"Ahhh..."
Hundreds of black robes, all Five Tribulation Overlords, were in total panic as their bodies uncontrollably vanished.
Luo Chen sprang up, releasing a hundred Thunder Tribulation Thoughts to form a large hand, reaching for a person, but grasped air as it passed through them.
This scene caused sheer horror among present Five Tribulation Overlords.
"Captain, find a way to save us!"
"Damn it, what’s happening!"
"Is Forbidden Sand Sea spreading, are we encountering a Ghost Specter?"
"Captain..."
The clamor grew hushed as more people vanished completely.
Luo Chen’s eyes were full of alarm yet helpless.
He and these overlords seemed isolated in different worlds, unable to touch.
"Could it be, an anomaly happened within the Forbidden Sand Sea?"
Watching hundreds of Five Tribulation Overlords vanish entirely, Luo Chen was utterly shocked, trying to flee with Thunderbolts.
But it was too late; his body too began to disappear!
