Chapter 1384 Nine Tripod Fragments Refined Again!

"King Lin, please take the seat!"

In the Invincible Palace, the Eastern Luo King led everyone in respectfully welcoming Lin Wudi to sit on the throne.

The Invincible Palace had been rebuilt, and the throne was entirely crafted from ownerless Tribulation Thunder Thoughts.

Even in the Forbidden Sand Sea, it was considered extremely luxurious.

Lin Mu sat calmly on the throne and spoke slowly, "Upon my return, I will spend a month refining artifacts. After crafting, I will lead you away from the Forbidden Sand Sea!"

The Eastern Luo King and others, though already aware that Lin Wudi would lead them out, couldn't hide their excitement at hearing a definite timeline.

"Thank you, King Lin!"

The Eastern Luo King led everyone in bowing respectfully again.

Lin Mu waved his hand and said, "Besides that, there is another matter I need to discuss with you..."

"King Lin, please command us; how could it be described as 'discussing'?"

Eastern Luo King quickly declared.

However, while saying this, he instinctively glanced at Ku Hai, standing like a servant below the steps.

A Six-Tribulation Overlord, nonetheless a creature from the Otherworld, treated as a slave, addressing Lin Wudi as their great master.

Lin Wudi was far more extraordinary than he imagined.

If Lin Wudi were not currently at the Fourth Tribulation Thunder, he would question whether Lin Wudi had conquered a Great Thousand Worlds during his absence.

"Let me finish speaking..."

Lin Mu explained the drawbacks of refining Thunder Tribulation Thoughts using Sand Sea Crystals and the existence of Ghost Qi Seeds once more.

Finally, he said, "For certain reasons, I need these seeds to remain within your Thunder Tribulation Thoughts, so I hope that everyone in the Stone Gate Realm will refrain from transcending tribulations after leaving the Forbidden Sand Sea!"

Those cultivators who had once come into contact with Sand Sea Crystals, once transcending tribulations, would be drained completely.

Their bodies, cultivation levels, Thunder Tribulation Thoughts, and even their fortune would be absorbed.

All of this would become nourishment for the Ghost Specter.

Although the Ghost Specter was now gone, the mechanism within still existed.

Lin Wudi equaled to forcefully suppress the desire to advance for those trapped in the Forbidden Sand Sea for hundreds of thousands of years, who could transcend tribulations at any time.

This was perhaps as severe as death for the Eastern Luo King and others!

Even Eastern Luo King was astonished.

The other Second Tribulation Thunder cultivators also looked displeased.

They had previously envisioned immediately transcending tribulations to restore past glory once leaving the Forbidden Sand Sea.

Now, Lin Wudi asked them to temporarily refrain from transcending tribulations.

This naturally caused some disappointment in their hearts.

"King Lin, our lives were given by you; it is merely a postponement of transcending tribulations, and I am willing to comply!"

Eastern Luo King expressed his thoughts, not representing anyone.

The rest of the Second Tribulation Thunder cultivators were suddenly enlightened, with many even slapping themselves.

Lin Wudi was akin to their second creator, and now merely asking them to postpone transcending tribulations. If they shirk from this, are they still human?

"We are willing to comply with King Lin's will!"

All Second Tribulation Thunder cultivators bowed to express their willingness.

Outside the Invincible Palace, those of the First Tribulation Thunder and those at the Integration Path Boundary responded in unison, "We are willing to comply with King Lin's will!"

Lin Mu nodded and said no more.

The reason he retained the Ghost Qi Seeds within their Thunder Tribulation Thoughts was simple; he intended to visit the Ghost Realm once more.

Now the Tower of Myriad Realms had been taken by him, Ghost Specter, and even Wang Ling no longer possessed the ability to traverse the realms.

The only method was through the Ghost Qi Seeds within these people's Sea of Consciousness.

"Very well, as compensation for delaying your tribulations, I will lecture the Tao for a month as an incarnation!"

"King Lin, you are too kind!"

The Eastern Luo King and others rejoiced immensely.

They hadn't anticipated that, merely doing a negligible favor for Lin Wudi, would earn such great reward.

A lecture by Lin Wudi, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Even if a Ninth Tribulation Thunder offered a similar lecture, they wouldn't exchange for it!

Lin Wudi was a being who defied Six Tribulation Thunders with only Second Tribulation Thunder.

Moreover, within a year, he had transcended two Thunder Tribulations consecutively.

The teachings of such an existence were bound to be of immense benefit to them.

After signaling everyone to leave, Lin Wudi entered a secret chamber within the Invincible Palace, preparing to begin refining a new set of Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars.

This time, he would use the top-tier refining materials obtained from the Ghost Fox Lord's treasury.

"Great master, you mean to have me assist you in refining artifacts with Ghost Qi?"

Ku Hai's expression was peculiar.

In the Ghost Realm, artifact refiners were extremely rare, most being captives from the Ten Thousand Realms.

But it had heard that Ghost Qi was not very suitable for refining artifacts.

Due to the highly corrosive nature of Ghost Qi.

Unless using special materials particularly suited to Ghost Qi, adding Ghost Qi in the refining process would be counterproductive.

"Rest assured, it won't drain you dry!"

Lin Mu began arranging refining materials.

If the overlords of the Heavenly Realm witnessed these materials, they would undoubtedly go mad.

Just the nine refining materials presently laid before Lin Mu were enough to make every overlord in the Heavenly Realm envious.

To put it bluntly, even if one were to scour the entire Heavenly Realm, they wouldn't gather these nine refining materials.

Each of these materials was of the top-tier Strange Treasure grade, with some reaching the level of Semi-Immortal Material.

Each had a value far exceeding the Gathering Star Stone!

"Great master, that's not what I meant..."

Ku Hai felt somewhat aggrieved.

It wasn't concerned about being drained, but worried that Lin Wudi might squander so many top-tier refining materials.

"Then keep quiet!"

Lin Mu reprimanded sharply and ignored the noisy Ku Hai, releasing seven Nine Tripod Fragments from his Sea of Consciousness.

The moment the seven Nine Tripod Fragments appeared, Ku Hai's eyes widened in disbelief.

It had been beside the Bone Lord, having seen a lot.

Now following Lin Wudi, it had witnessed top-tier treasures from the Ghost Fox Lord's treasury.

Yet these seven fragments before it gave a feeling far surpassing anything it had ever seen!

At this moment, facing the seven fragments, it even felt a sense of suffocation.

Merely using its Divine Sense to scan was enough to feel the energy within them capable of world destruction.

It dared not even ask Lin Wudi what these items were.

These seven fragments commanded reverence in its heart.

Originally, it thought Lin Wudi was wasting those nine top-tier refining materials.

Because using any of the top-tier materials, combined with secondary-grade materials, could refine a magical treasure of reverse level, or even a Semi-Immortal Artifact.

But now, it didn't think so.

It even felt these refining materials were somewhat beneath the seven fragments.

Using such materials alongside the seven fragments in refining was an insult to the fragments.

However, Lin Mu ignored Ku Hai's shock, officially commencing artifact refining.

One after another, Immortal Fire began refining all those top-tier refining materials.

Ku Hai didn't even dare to breathe heavily, lest it influence Lin Wudi and cause refining failure.

With seven terrifying fragments, combined with these top-tier materials, if refining failed even once, Ku Hai felt it had no excuse.

Boom!

Only the fusion of the first refining material surprisingly invoked a celestial disaster!

Outside the Invincible Palace.

The Eastern Luo King, Elder Xie, and others were protecting Lin Wudi.

Witnessing the descent of Thunder Tribulation, they couldn't help but be astonished.

Wasn't it said that artifact refining would take a month?

How is it that on the first day, Thunder Tribulation descended!
