Tell them who I am, and see if they still have the courage to follow me after knowing that.
Kong Luo and the others looked at Lin Mu with confusion, not quite understanding what he meant by this remark.
Lin Mu did not offer an explanation.
Liu Yuan smiled and cupped his hands to those around him.
He was feeling no pressure.
Though the lowest cultivation level around him was at the Peak of Integration, with Kong Luo and others having undergone the Second Thunder Tribulation, and even hundreds having faced the First Tribulation.
Yet having followed Lin Wudi and witnessed the true grand scenes, this number of people couldn't scare him.
"Lin Wudi, hailing from the Terrifying Continent, under the jurisdiction of the Northern Jambu Continent, Barbarian Continent..."
The first sentence left everyone present in shock.
Although they had been trapped in the Forbidden Sand Sea for years, they were aware of what the Barbarian Continent represented.
This unparalleled being who roamed invincible, obliterated the King's Guard, scared off the Third Thunder Tribulation, and shattered Ghost Specters, actually hailed from the Barbarian Continent.
This was something no one had anticipated.
In the minds of those from the Heavenly Realm, the Barbarian Continent was synonymous with barren backwardness.
That such a wild land could produce a powerhouse like Lin Wudi was simply unimaginable.
Their shock was just beginning.
As Liu Yuan narrated, they learned all about Lin Wudi's past exploits in the Heavenly Realm.
He killed the Hundred-man Commander of the Heavenly Guards, obliterated the Garrison Commander and Commander, instantaneously killed the Five-Tribulation Overlord, and even slew the Six-Tribulation Overlord!
Had anyone told them these things before today, they would have spat in their face.
Yet now, Kong Luo and the others believed it.
Because Lin Wudi only needed to display a magic artifact to scare over a hundred practitioners of the Third Thunder Tribulation into fleeing for their lives.
Only such a track record could make sense.
"The Heavenly Guards, Enforcement Team, and all the major Holy Lands are my enemies! If you join me, you will face these people directly, how will you choose?"
Lin Wudi looked at Kong Luo and the others with a playful gaze.
This remark was heard not only by Kong Luo but the entire Flowing Sand City.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Instantly killing the Five-Tribulation Overlord and slaying the Six-Tribulation Overlord!
Such achievements are akin to myths.
Isn't Lin Wudi's power exaggerated beyond reason?
The Heavenly Realm actually has such an existence!
Moreover, upon hearing Liu Yuan's account, at this moment, beyond the Forbidden Sand Sea, are a Five-Tribulation Overlord and even Six-Tribulation Overlords waiting for Lin Wudi!
If they went out with Lin Wudi, they might die instantly in a clash with Overlord-level powers.
Facing Overlord-level powerhouses, they wouldn't even count as cannon fodder!
"How to choose is up to you! I will go into closed cultivation for three days, after which I will leave Flowing Sand City for Four Directions City!"
With that, Lin Mu left a message and his figure disappeared.
The scene was silent, no one spoke, everyone was immersed in the shocking news they just heard.
"Mother, what is an Overlord?"
Shi Tian looked at his mother Liao Rui, puzzled.
Clearly, Uncle is so powerful, why do these people act as if their father died when the enemy is mentioned as an Overlord?
"Overlord..."
Liao Rui smiled wryly, not knowing how to explain to her son.
In the Stone Gate Realm, the strongest Ten Kings were only at the Third Thunder Tribulation, whereas a Five-Tribulation or Six-Tribulation Overlord was something Shi Tian couldn't comprehend.
"Haha, I'll follow Lin Wudi, what's death? I'd rather die the moment I leave the Forbidden Sand Sea than stay and wait for death."
The female Deputy City Lord suddenly spoke.
The others didn't immediately express their stance, each with an extremely complex expression.
After the crowd dispersed, Liao Rui entrusted her son Shi Tian to her husband and went to Liu Yuan's side alone.
"Brother Liu..."
Although she had mustered her courage, Liao Rui didn't know how to speak when the moment came.
Liu Yuan, still reveling in narrating Lin Wudi's achievements, smiled and said, "Senior Sister Liao, feel free to speak your mind..."
Liao Rui cautiously scanned her surroundings before speaking through voice transmission: "Benefactor's magic artifact is completely unusable here. If discovered by those of the Third Tribulation, and they come back, we..."
The others couldn't see the reality of the Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars, but Liao Rui understood.
Lin Wudi only used her artifact refining technique to slightly refine the Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars, allowing it to break the rules and manifest in the Forbidden Sand Sea.
But this instrument, capable of counter-slaying a Six-Tribulation Overlord, cannot be empowered by her limited artifact refining skills.
The Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars were just for show.
Liu Yuan didn't know about this issue initially, and upon understanding, he was somewhat stunned.
"Indeed worthy of Lin Wudi, staging an empty city ploy that scared over a hundred Third Thunder Tribulation constituents off their feet.
"It should be... fine..."
Liu Yuan mumbled without much confidence.
Everyone took him as someone who knew Lin Wudi best, but he had known Lin Wudi for only a few months.
What he heard were various legends.
He didn't know Lin Wudi's true strength.
"..."
Liao Rui looked speechlessly at this unreliable companion.
However, Mu Gui on the side chuckled and said, "Rest assured, if Lin Wudi wasn't confident, he wouldn't go into closed cultivation here!"
Nevertheless, his words did not seem to provide much assurance to Liao Rui.
"I hope so..."
Now, the fate of Liao Rui and her family was already tied to Lin Wudi, leaving her no choice but to worry.
...
In the secret chamber.
Lin Wudi released a Tribulation Thunder Thought, playing with it gently.
"This feeling..."
Inside this thought resides a Level Nine Guiyu.
Even now, one could see that within the Tribulation Thunder Thought, the ghost pearl formed by the Guiyu exuded a chilling ghastly Qi.
Yet it wasn't the deadly ghastly Qi that Lin Mu cared about.
But the mysterious energy attached to the ghastly Qi.
It was precisely this energy that allowed the ghastly Qi, after absorbing all a cultivator's cultivation level and fortunes, to be transmitted to the Ghost Realm!
In other words, this energy could communicate with the Otherworld!
If placed in the exterior world full of Heavenly Battlefield Passages, this interworld communication ability is insignificant.
But in the Forbidden Sand Sea, this strength meant an opportunity to transcend tribulation without leaving!
If proficient in utilizing the boundary-breaking energy within the ghost pearl, perhaps it could communicate with the Ghost Realm, even the Heavenly Battlefield!
"Unfortunately, there's not enough of this mysterious energy within these few pearls!"
Lin Mu currently had a Level Seven Ghost Pearl from a Level Seven Guiyu, four Level Eight Ghost Pearls, and thirteen Level Nine Ghost Pearls.
But the combined boundary-breaking energy within these ghost pearls wasn't sufficient to open a passage to the Otherworld.
More was needed!
"However, one bite at a time, I'll start by extracting the boundary-breaking energy from within the ghost pearls!"
Lin Mu seated himself cross-legged, holding a ghost pearl, and began extracting the energy.
With the Myriad Laws Record, extracting such energy was merely child's play.
It just took some time.
To fully extract from eighteen ghost pearls would take three days...
Unbeknownst to Lin Mu in his closed cultivation for three days, external turmoil had already erupted.
...
In a Flowing Sand City tavern.
Thirteen diverse individuals were scattered about the tavern.
On the surface, these people were leisurely eating spirit fruits and drinking spirit nectar, but secretly they were communicating through sound transmissions.
"Lin Wudi has gone into closed cultivation? Could it be that in the Forbidden Sand Sea, he can enhance his strength?"
"These details aren't what's important. The crucial point is, if he dared to remain here in closed cultivation, he likely wasn't bluffing earlier."
These individuals were the Heaven's Mandate Organization's Third Thunder Tribulations.
