Chapter 1243 - 1243: One Man Battles Three Kings!

"Rumor has it that the Hidden King has discovered a new method to wield the Tribulation Thunder Thought. It seems the rumor is true! The Hidden King is far more formidable than the Ten Kings!"

The Great Generals who originally served the Ten Kings were whispering among themselves.

They were once the closest allies to the Ten Kings, and thus they could better perceive the disparity between the Ten Kings and the Hidden King.

"Hidden King..."

Xie Yue and his group had also arrived at the Black Sand Sea.

At this moment, faced with the formidable Hidden King, they couldn't help but feel apprehensive, their expressions solemn.

Compared to them, the Eastern Luo King felt it most deeply!

As the sole survivor among the Ten Kings, his emotions were turbulent at this moment.

From hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Ten Kings and the Hidden King went separate ways.

The Hidden King constantly explored, seeking ways to leave the Forbidden Sand Sea.

The Ten Kings, on the other hand, simply enjoyed life and basked in glory and wealth.

Now, facts have proven that the Ten Kings were wrong, and the Hidden King's path was the correct one.

Hundreds of thousands of years have passed, and the Hidden King has grown unimaginably powerful.

The Eastern Luo King knew clearly that if he were to make a move now, he would likely be defeated in one blow or even wiped out by the Hidden King!

He couldn't begin to gauge the Hidden King's level of might.

It seemed as if before them was not just one Hidden King who had undergone the Third Tribulation, but one who had undergone the Fourth Tribulation!

The last defeat by the Eastern King, he had internally justified himself with reasons such as being taken by surprise, a sudden attack, and being ambushed.

But now, he finally understood that the Hidden King was long past being on the same level as the Ten Kings.

The Hidden King's might could perhaps only be matched by Lin Wudi!

However, could Lin Wudi win?

If it were just one Hidden King, the Eastern Luo King believed Lin Wudi would undoubtedly triumph.

But now, it's three Hidden Kings joining forces.

Moreover, the Eastern Luo King didn't believe the Hidden King would engage in something uncertain.

Knowing that the Eastern King was killed by Lin Wudi in one move, yet still proactively challenging Lin Wudi must mean he has something to rely on!

The Eastern Luo King instinctively looked toward the Black Sand Sea.

Could it be the trump card of the Three Hidden Kings is the level-five Ghost Specter?

At this moment, Lin Mu stepped into the air, heading toward the center of the battlefield.

The Three Hidden Kings, led by the Northern King, also stepped into the battlefield.

The momentum of the four clashed, tearing the air with a fierce sound!

"Step back!"

The spectating Dao Integrators retreated one after another.

The great battle was about to erupt, and with their level of strength, even the slight impact of the aftermath could mean death.

To watch the spectacle, they had to retreat far away!

"Someone like you shouldn't appear in the Forbidden Sand Sea!"

The Northern King's aged face flashed with a hint of anger.

Compared to the three of them, Lin Wudi was younger, stronger in power, higher in talent.

Such a genius had entered the Forbidden Sand Sea to compete with them.

In the Northern King's view, it was an insult to them.

Lin Mu stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, "I bear no enmity with anyone in the Forbidden Sand Sea. It has always been you who want to make a move against me! And my goal has only ever been the Ghost Specter."

Lin Mu's words left the Three Hidden Kings in a momentary daze.

Thinking carefully, it seemed to be true.

From the start, Lin Wudi never intended to become a king of the Forbidden Sand Sea; he was only ever after the Ghost Specter.

As long as those City Lords and Deputy City Lords did not resist or provoke him, he never actively harmed anyone!

After all this time, it turned out this calamity was something the Ten Kings and Hidden King had brought upon themselves!

However, Lin Wudi's words gave the others different thoughts.

"Is Lin Wudi compromising? Offering goodwill?"

"Seems like it; perhaps he's aware of his injuries and fears he cannot overcome the Three Hidden Kings, so he speaks to explain!"

"Ha, people really thought Lin Wudi would surely win, but it turns out he surrendered before the battle began; how laughable!"

"It's not surprising; those are, after all, the Three Hidden Kings!"

The crowd discussed intensely.

Even those who initially supported Lin Wudi started to have other thoughts.

Not to mention, those eager for Lin Wudi to be killed by the Three Hidden Kings were showing their happiness openly.

"Regardless of your reasoning, the moment you killed the Eastern King, your grudge with the Hidden King became enduring as life and death."

The Northern King stood strong in the void, his momentum slowly starting to rise.

His very essence, his physique, began changing.

At first, he bore the demeanor of a weak, frail elderly.

But now, his muscles slowly became firm, his build straightened, and between his brows appeared a touch of heroism.

"Oh? So it's using the Tribulation Thunder Thought to seal one's power, unraveling the seal now to stack strength! Quite an amusing little method."

Lin Mu's expression slightly shifted as he revealed the Northern King's secret cultivation technique.

The Northern King's eyebrows lifted slightly, and from a position of superiority, he nodded and said, "As expected of one who could kill the Eastern King, has some insight. Makes me somewhat reluctant to kill you!"

"Kill me? You three are far from enough!"

Lin Mu's gaze was cool and indifferent, not taking the Three Hidden Kings seriously at all.

Their verbal clash was fierce and extreme.

The spectators suddenly realized that Lin Wudi had not shown weakness or pleaded for mercy; his attitude remained domineering.

"Ha, bragging shamelessly! You, a frog in the well, how could you know the Hidden King's greatness!"

The Northern King wasn't bothered by Lin Wudi's words.

His attitude toward Lin Wudi was like an elder facing a naive child, looking down from above.

"Enough talk, if you wish to fight, then let's fight!"

Lin Mu's robes fluttered, seemingly descended as an exiled immortal, his aura climbing once more.

Crack, crack, crack!

The surrounding space was crushed, making crackling sounds under his aura's weight.

The Spiritual Energy seemed to have solidified, frozen in mid-air.

The wind above seemed to have vanished.

This area appeared completely subdued by Lin Wudi.

"Since you wish to die, then I shall fulfill that wish!"

With the Northern King's words, phenomena suddenly appeared behind the Three Hidden Kings.

Deep within the Divine Temple, the Western King leaped forth; behind her, ethereal flames flickered between reality and illusion.

And her aura continued rising.

Third Tribulation peak, Fourth Tribulation!

Eventually, her aura reached a level comparable to the Fourth Tribulation.

The Eastern Luo King and others paled with fright.

"Turns out... they really found their way!"

They had once thought the Hidden King's quest to transcend tribulation in the Heavenly Realm was a mad fantasy.

Never expected, they actually found their way!

At this moment, the Western King's aura was already comparable to the Fourth Tribulation!

Meanwhile, the Southern King also ascended slowly into the air, behind him were eight gigantic dragons, representing imperial majesty.

His aura too was that of the Fourth Tribulation!

Two forces wielding the Fourth Tribulation aura seemed capable of tearing heaven and earth apart, shattering the suppression previously formed by Lin Wudi.

Spectating Dao Integrators, even the Eastern Luo King, felt the suffocating might of the Western and Southern Kings.

"They... are combining the strength of all their followers! Look at their subordinates!"

Xie Yue's sharp eyes instantly spotted something amiss.

The temple attendants of the Western King, and the imperial ministers of the Southern King, appeared withered and emaciated as if drained dry.

Many could no longer remain airborne, collapsing to the ground!

It turned out, the Western and Southern Kings's power did not derive from themselves, but from the faith of all their subordinates!

"Absurd!"

As everyone was worrying for Lin Wudi's plight, Lin Wudi's eyes brimmed with disdainful contempt.

"Hmm?"

"Seeking death!"

The Southern King's cultivation of the Emperor's Way was paramount; he could not tolerate such defiance and attacked fiercely.

Crash!

Eight gigantic dragons merged with the Southern King's Tribulation Thunder Thought, baring their fangs and claws, rushing toward Lin Wudi.
