Chapter 1347 - 1347: Artifact Refining Tribulation

Back in the Heavenly Realm, Lin Mu went through a lot of trouble and killed several people just to get his hands on a single Gathering Star Stone.

But now, there were hundreds of Gathering Star Stones laid out in front of Lin Mu, each one much larger than the one he found in the Heavenly Realm.

Mysterious Sea Ice Spirit, Hundred-Zhang Silk, Milky Way Dazzling Star Iron, Overseas Gold Iron Orchid, Nine Suns Ironwood, Lumina Stone, Soul Death Sand…

Materials that only appeared in the Immortal Realm were everywhere here.

As for the refining materials at the level of Strange Treasures, they were too numerous to count.

"Hahaha…"

Lin Mu couldn't help but laugh heartily.

These materials were enough for him to forge the Nine Cauldrons and Thirteen Stars to an unimaginable level.

In the Heavenly Realm, even if he overthrew Daoist Master Yellow Springs to become the Lord of the Heavenly Realm, he couldn't have collected so many top-tier refining materials.

These materials were from hundreds of worlds conquered by the Ghost Fox!

One could imagine the immense accumulation from an entire world.

Lin Mu felt very fortunate that the cultivation method of Ghost Realm Creatures was different from human cultivators; otherwise, these precious materials would never have lasted this long.

"With the power of the Ghost Fox Seven Tribulations Lord, even if it exhausts all its energy to rush back, it would take a day, at most two. There's not enough time to forge in one go... However, I can forge a temporary weapon for now…"

Were it not for acquiring the Ghost Fox's precious materials, Lin Mu would never be this extravagant.

But now, faced with the vast amount of refining materials, he could afford to waste them.

Even if it was to forge a weapon that would shatter after one use, it wouldn't matter.

Gathering Star Stone, Nine Suns Ironwood…

Lin Mu picked out over a dozen secondary refining materials and began crafting a disposable weapon.

It's worth noting that, in the Ghost Fox's treasure trove, these secondary refining materials were even rarer than Spiritual Treasure level refining materials.

Their low rank made them unworthy of the collection.

These few secondary refining materials were brightly colored and extremely beautiful, which was why the Ghost Fox collected them.

In the Heavenly Realm, countless people would break their heads fighting over top-tier refining materials, yet they didn't even qualify to become part of the Treasure Pagoda here, showing just how wealthy this Ghost Fox is.

Boom!

Lin Mu formed seals with his hands, and spels manifested in the void.

The materials slowly melted in the flames.

This artifact refining fire was taken from the fifth layer of the Treasure Pagoda's strange fire.

Such a fire that could only be born once in a world, yet the Treasure Pagoda contained dozens of them.

With this harvest, Lin Mu felt he wouldn't have to worry about resources before ascending to immortality.

Starlight dazzling, Nine Suns scorching, Xuan Bing chilling…

Various strange phenomena appeared within the Treasure Pagoda as a long blade of magical treasure level slowly took shape.

...

Rumble!

Electricity flashed and thunder roared in the void, the Ghastly Qi was directly broken apart.

A silhouette, like a lightning bolt, traversed the void.

A countless number of spatial cracks even appeared around it.

Its speed was so fast that the void began to shatter.

"Human, you deserve to die!"

The Ghost Fox roared in fury.

It was now within the range where it could receive Sound Transmission Talisman messages.

Just now, it received a message from Gui Li at the Lord's Mansion.

The Lord's Mansion was destroyed!

All the Six-Tribulations Ghost Generals and Five-Tribulations Ghost Generals guarding the Lord's Mansion were killed.

Even the Ghost Soldiers only had a few thousand who barely escaped.

All of this happened just one day ago!

The Ghost Fox Lord couldn't imagine what kind of feeling it would have when it returned to the Lord's Mansion and saw the empty treasure vault.

It feared it might die from heartbreak.

This was the wealth it had accumulated over millions of years, from hundreds of worlds.

Not even a Ghost King was as wealthy as it was.

Perhaps only the Ghost Emperor could compare to it.

But now, such wealth was about to fall into the hands of a human, and the Ghost Fox was heartbroken to the point of being unable to breathe.

"Human, I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"

The Ghost Fox Lord decided that if the treasure vault was truly taken by the human, it would spare no expense to invite the Ghost Path Master Guiguzi to issue a Ghost Path Kill Order to hunt down this human.

Even if that human fled to the Heavenly Realm, it would hunt him down!

"Hmm? It's not taken?"

The Ghost Fox Lord stood in the sky above the Lord's Mansion, surprised to see the Middle Thousand Worlds serving as the treasure vault still there.

It suddenly understood something and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, I thought that human would take the entire treasure vault away. Now it seems, I overthought it! How could a mere human of the Fourth Tribulation Thunder have the ability to carry a Middle Thousand Worlds with him!"

The Ghost Fox Lord realized all its anxiety on the journey was unnecessary!

The Fourth Tribulation Thunder, while capable of creating a world with a single thought, was not a complete world, only a virtual one.

It could contain small objects, but accommodating a Middle Thousand Worlds was impossible!

Only those who reached the Seventh or Eighth Tribulation, who had unified their Tribulation Thunder Thought, could accommodate a Middle Thousand Worlds in their thoughts.

The Fourth Tribulation Thunder was far from that!

"Uh... no, my Treasure Pagoda!"

The Fourth Tribulation Thunder indeed couldn't take the entire Middle Thousand Worlds, but taking a Treasure Pagoda was easy enough.

Within that Treasure Pagoda was the most precious part of its vault.

If the Treasure Pagoda was taken, then more than half of the vault's value was gone.

The Ghost Fox Lord rushed towards the entrance of the treasure vault in a hurry.

Just then, rumble!

Thunder echoed, causing the Ghost Fox Lord to instinctively halt its steps.

"This is... the Heavenly Tribulation?"

The Ghost Fox Lord was somewhat confused; how could a Heavenly Tribulation appear in a place like the Ghost Realm?

The Ghost Realm neither refines elixirs nor artifacts, so where did this Heavenly Tribulation come from?

The extremely thick tribulation clouds started gathering over the Middle Thousand Worlds where the treasure vault was located.

Terrifying tribulation lightning descended from the sky, striking into the treasure vault.

"Artifact Refining Tribulation!"

Having followed the Pupil King in conquering hundreds of worlds, the Ghost Fox Lord was naturally familiar with Artifact Refining Tribulations.

But in the Ghost Realm, how could…

"That damned human actually didn't leave but is refining artifacts in the treasure vault?"

The Ghost Fox Lord suddenly had an epiphany.

"Haha, humans truly are foolish to dare to stay behind and refine artifacts; perhaps he thinks this lord couldn't possibly get back so quickly..."

The Ghost Fox Lord felt it had faintly guessed the human's thoughts.

It thought that the human used some trick to lure it out, making it believe it was dealing with a cunning individual, yet the human was so foolish.

"Hahaha… I shall see what expression you will have on your face when this lord descends!"

The Ghost Fox Lord laughed loudly as it waved its hand.

Rumble!

A massive hand suddenly reached towards the thunderclouds in the sky.

To the Ghost Fox Lord, it was merely a small human of the Fourth Tribulation Thunder, and artifact refining was only refining a magical treasure.

Tribulation of magical treasures was only comparable to one or two Tribulation Thunders, a simple wave of its hand could break it.

Breaking the Tribulation would mark the demise of that foolish human!

However, when its hand touched the tribulation cloud, a foreboding sense of unease made it want to retreat.

But it was too late to withdraw its hand.

Boom!

The Ghost Fox Lord's great hand pressed onto the tribulation cloud.

The imagined scene of the cloud being shattered did not occur.

Instead, the cloud, as if enraged, unleashed countless tribulation lightning bolts like Thunder Dragons, fiercely striking towards the Ghost Fox Lord.
