Chapter 1251 Brother Lu, Don't Kill Me, I Don't Know Anything

Simply put, it was gravity, one of the four fundamental forces of the universe. Beside him, Lei Xiao had only just caught a glimpse of the fringes of electromagnetism, another of the four fundamental forces. She hadn't even touched the barest surface. Yet Lu Ding, with a single divine ability, directly grasped gravity.

To pull a person over. No, that wasn't accurate. It should be said that anything in the sense of "existence" could be pulled over, dragged over, if one could withstand it without being torn apart.

Simply put, it was gravity, one of the four fundamental forces of the universe. Beside him, Lei Xiao had only just caught a glimpse of the fringes of electromagnetism, another of the four fundamental forces. She hadn't even touched the surface, the barest skin of it. Yet Lu Ding, with a single divine ability, directly grasped gravity.

That was two of the four fundamental forces mastered.

At this point, as his comprehension of the Calamity of the Dead Moon and Frosty Sky deepened, Lu Ding's progress on the path of "force" advanced to yet another level.

A thought rose in his mind.

"The legendary power of the Great Path of Force that Pangu used to split heaven and earth, could it be these cosmic forces?"

Unfortunately, these things were still too far away for Lu Ding. But if he delved deeper along this path, then he wouldn't be far from becoming a creator god.

"Brother Lu, what are you smiling at?"

Lei Xiao couldn't help but speak up from beside him. Looking at Lu Ding's smile, she actually felt a bit creeped out.

Lu Ding reined in his smile, though the corners of his mouth still retained a trace of amusement. "I'm about to become a god."

Lei Xiao didn't quite understand. "A god? Brother Lu, which god in the Second Circle could possibly beat you? With that divine ability of yours from just now, you give any god a taste of that, and which god wouldn't be knocked senseless?"

"I've fought gods before too. A stray dog on the roadside, even I could kick it around at will, let alone you. Don't become one of those things. Those things aren't worth anything, no real value."

Lu Ding: "......."

"You don't get it. Come on, let's head to Gouchen Hall and get some practice in."

Lei Xiao kept pace with him. "Didn't we just finish training?"

Lu Ding sat on the Seven Slaughter Throne. "There are still others I haven't trained."

Lei Xiao's voice instantly shot up several octaves. "There's MORE?!?!"

She felt somewhat numb. Just what kind of monster was Brother Lu? She'd thought the Fallen Sun Setting Sun Transformation was already the peak. She never imagined there was still a higher master.

Usually, the later something appears, the stronger it is. Lei Xiao didn't even dare to imagine.

As for Lu Ding, she had only four words of evaluation: unfathomably deep.

All kinds of terrifying things, one after another, without even a single repeat.

She was curious. She'd never once seen Brother Lu cultivate. So where did all this come from?

It couldn't be that he got them from killing monsters, could it? That was way too ridiculous. In games, even if you get a secret manual as a drop, you still have to train it yourself. Brother Lu's stuff really didn't seem learned. It was like his past life hadn't forgotten anything, like it was carved straight into his bones.

"Brother Lu, let me ask you quietly. Are you the reincarnation of a powerful being? Don't worry, my lips are sealed. Otherwise, with these things one after another, I've never once seen you cultivate, and you just pull them out casually. I even suspect you might be omniscient and omnipotent, that divine abilities and spells are just a smokescreen, that you just make things up as you go to fool other people, to keep them from discovering the truth that you're the reincarnation of a powerful being."

"Actually, you don't even know these things at all. You're just so incredible beyond my imagination that any random movement is a move. You just shout whatever, and it comes. It's like skiing, honestly. As long as you don't fall, everything is a move."

Lu Ding looked at Lei Xiao with a speechless expression.

This scared Lei Xiao senseless.

She clamped a hand over her mouth.

She belatedly realized she knew too much.

Terror emerged in the depths of her eyes, gradually filling her eye sockets. She even glanced left and right. All around was the hundred-thousand-li uninhabited zone cleared out by the map-clearing effects of the Fallen Sun Setting Sun Transformation. This made Lei Xiao even more afraid, her voice trembling. "Brother Lu, don't kill me, I don't know anything."

Lu Ding truly didn't know what to say anymore. "Have you gone to see anyone about it?"

Lei Xiao: "????"

"See anyone about what?"

Lu Ding looked at her and tapped his index finger against his temple. "Your illness."

How could she even come up with these things?

If it had been Feifan, Lu Ding might have felt a little guilty.

But Lei Xiao was purely guessing wildly.

Utterly exasperating!

Lei Xiao laughed. "Hahahaha, looks like that's not it. That's good then, that's good. I haven't discovered Brother Lu's secret, so you won't kill me."

Just a moment ago, she'd genuinely frightened herself.

She was terrified she'd accidentally guessed something, and Lu Ding would strike her down.

At that moment.

Elsewhere.

The Third Sovereign, having assembled his great army, was also rushing at full speed toward Gouchen Hall.

Needless to say, in these matters, people who are fundamentally strong do share certain similarities.

None of them were willing to waste time.

As for the matter at Myriad Demons Gathering, the Third Sovereign had received word, but because the destruction range was too vast and no effective observation distance could be reached, no one knew who had done it.

They only knew that Myriad Demons Gathering was gone.

The Third Sovereign, already not far from Gouchen Hall, felt shaken to his core upon hearing this news. A hundred thousand li, destroyed in an instant!

Just how huge of a "holy shit" was that!?

What kind of thing was it?

Who had Myriad Demons Gathering offended?

To actually suffer such a sudden catastrophe.

A range of a hundred thousand li, swift and terrifying. Such an existence was difficult to oppose by force!

However, the Third Sovereign felt this had nothing to do with him. He had no grudge with such an existence.

Gazing into the distance ahead, they were about to enter Gouchen Hall's sphere of influence.

The Third Sovereign summoned his subordinate. "Spread the word. We're about to enter Gouchen Hall's range. Activate the concealment arrays, prepare the Hundred Ghost Sand, desecrate Gouchen Hall's arrays. Once inside, kill everyone you see!"

"Yes!"

As the order was relayed, one array after another silently activated, concealing the existence and aura of the demonic creature legion as they quietly crept in!

As for the grudge between the Third Sovereign and Gouchen Hall through Mu Xuecheng.

Was it that the Third Sovereign didn't want to pursue it back then?

It wasn't that.

It had nothing to do with whether he was magnanimous. Any decent person wouldn't be able to tolerate it either.

Escorting someone back through all that hardship, and not only did he receive no thanks, he was nearly beaten to death!

If he didn't take revenge and just swallowed that, he'd be a complete spineless wretch.

It was just that the Third Sovereign at the time couldn't beat them. He hadn't developed enough yet. Though his ceiling was high, there had to be a transitional period.

Four words: avoid their sharp edge!!!

In truth, all these years, the Third Sovereign had let Mu Xuecheng speak ill of him outside, while secretly, he'd long been researching how to deal with Gouchen Hall and then make Mu Xuecheng regret her words.

It was just that the sudden incident outside Thunder Roar Hall had shattered his original plans.

Now Mu Xuecheng was dead, and on the surface, the blame had been pushed onto Lu Ding. Though the Third Sovereign had no idea how that happened. It was clearly him who had killed her. How did it become Lu Ding?

Just who was spreading these rumors?

But it didn't matter. He was going to deal with Gouchen Hall anyway. This actually helped him conceal himself better.

Before that, though.

The Third Sovereign still mentioned something to the subordinate beside him. "After we make our move on Gouchen Hall, spread the truth. Tell the world again that I was the one who killed Mu Xuecheng, and that it has nothing to do with Lu Ding!"

The subordinate beside him was puzzled. "Sir, why bother explaining?"

The Third Sovereign glanced at him. "Not explaining now makes it convenient for me to lead you in the assault on Gouchen Hall. That's self-interest. Explaining after the move is because I was the one who killed her. It has nothing to do with Lu Ding. That's about daring to act and daring to own it. What I did, I can't let someone else take the blame."

The subordinate couldn't understand, but chose to respect it.

Actually, the Third Sovereign didn't know that the reason it spread that Lu Ding killed Mu Xuecheng was because, at the time outside Thunder Roar Hall, nearly everyone who had watched him kill Mu Xuecheng had entered Thunder Roar Hall.
