Chapter 3800: Who Are You?
As the Great Dao tribulation descended, Space Dao Spirit waved its small hand and instantly appeared beside the residual soul.
"Space Prison!"
The space fragmented into millions of cubic regions, each spanning a kilometer, forming interconnected prisons.
Even if one prison was breached, the residual soul would simply enter another, trapping it completely.
True Fire Dao Spirit and Sword Dao Spirit joined Space Dao Spirit, working in unison.
Sword Dao Spirit transformed into sword light and slashed forward, while Space Dao Spirit opened a spatial channel for the sword light to strike directly at the residual soul.
A scream echoed the power of this strike far exceeded that of Five Elements Giant's earlier attack.
Under this blow, the residual soul was severely injured, its aura greatly weakened.
This was the true might of Sword Great Dao's essence if the residual soul had been merely a Dao Lord, this strike would have obliterated it instantly.
Meanwhile, the ethereal flames of True Fire continued burning it as Lin Moyu unleashed World-Burning Fire, transforming it into a fire dragon that surged forward.
Space Dao Spirit opened another channel flooding the residual soul's space with flames.
Then Space Dao Spirit waved its hand again: "Cut!"
Within the prison, countless fine cracks appeared like countless sharp blades slicing through the residual soul eliciting constant screams.
After a brief buildup, the Great Dao tribulation finally struck bolts of tribulation lightning rained down relentlessly.
The lightning not only targeted the elemental liches but also bombarded the residual soul trapped within Space Prison.
Because of their proximity the heavens deemed them allies and punished them together.
Lin Moyu had already retreated far from the tribulation's range.
World-Burning Fire, True Fire Great Dao, Sword Great Dao, Space Great Dao and now tribulation lightning all raged simultaneously in a chaotic and terrifying spectacle.
Lin Moyu watched with concern and muttered: "Did you really think I'd only use Sword Great Dao as a weapon? What an idiot!"
Using Sword Great Dao this way was indeed wasteful but Lin Moyu had no choice. If he allowed his elemental liches to unleash their full power it would provoke an even harsher tribulation.
Whether they could survive such punishment was uncertain.
After witnessing Sword Great Dao's direct attack fail to harm the residual soul significantly Lin Moyu realized he had no alternative.
He not only commanded his elemental liches to attack with full force but also lured the residual soul into the tribulation's range to face judgment together.
The elemental liches were fearless they didn't care about death or tribulations as long as Lin Moyu commanded them they obeyed without hesitation.
The thunder roared endlessly and Lin Moyu noticed that this round of lightning was far stronger than what had occurred during his earlier summoning of elemental liches.
These bolts carried pure destruction not as tests but as genuine punishment.
Under such conditions a typical Dao Lord would be reduced to ashes in a single strike.
The residual soul screamed continuously its aura growing weaker by the moment.
This entity likely the previous World Tree Emperor had painstakingly escaped Beast Abyss with a fragment of its soul only to choose the wrong target and lose everything.
Who knew when or if it would have another chance to escape again?
The elemental liches endured the tribulation silently their small bodies riddled with wounds which made Lin Moyu increasingly anxious.
Though some spells claimed that elemental liches couldn't truly die that they could revive after death Lin Moyu knew there were limits to everything.
Even immortality depended on avoiding accidents and facing heaven's wrath was no ordinary accident.
If they perished under this tribulation their revival wasn't guaranteed.
Lin Moyu regretted having to involve them but he had no choice.
If all three elemental liches died he could still recreate True Fire Dao Spirit and Space Dao Spirit using available materials.
But Sword Dao Spirit would be lost forever.
He could only hope for luck.
Lingering flowers were prepared in advance as long as they retained even a sliver of life after the tribulation they could be healed.
Meanwhile the residual soul's screams grew weaker and its injuries worsened until it nearly dissipated entirely.
Desperate it finally begged for mercy: "Friend I was wrong! Spare my remnant soul I'll leave and never trouble you again."
"Don't you find your words laughable?" Lin Moyu replied mockingly.
At this stage it dared plead for mercy? What a joke!
After all he had sacrificed it thought he'd relent?
Realizing begging was futile the residual soul roared angrily: "Just wait! If I escape I'll kill you!"
Lin Moyu sneered coldly: "Then let's talk after you escape."
The tribulation lightning continued striking relentlessly and eventually the residual soul vanished under repeated attacks.
Even as a mere fragment it far surpassed typical Dao Lords even stronger than Wood Slaughter Realm Master.
But ultimately it was still just a remnant and its abilities were limited.
Its reliance on Annihilation Wind proved insufficient against Lin Moyu's relentless assault.
In truth Lin Moyu hadn't given it any opportunity to deploy other techniques trapping and killing it swiftly instead.
As its remnants dissipated a soul crystal appeared where it had been.
This crystal differed from those Lin Moyu had obtained before it was more refined and faintly exuded sentience amidst its lifeless state.
"Is this because its soul belonged to a higher tier?" Lin Moyu wondered aloud.
Indeed the crystal reflected its superior level even altering its properties compared to ordinary ones.
With the tribulation still raging Lin Moyu couldn't retrieve it immediately and waited patiently instead.
The three elemental liches curled up under continuous lightning strikes their small bodies trembling pitifully amidst countless wounds.
Watching them suffer broke Lin Moyu's heart but there was nothing he could do.
Tribulations rendered all techniques useless even Space Dao Spirit couldn't shield itself with Space Great Dao.
The lightning ignored spatial barriers entirely locking onto them directly.
Even passive spells were nullified by heaven's wrath which fortunately spared Lin Moyu's undead army from collateral damage.
The elemental liches' bodies grew increasingly fragile under relentless punishment on the verge of collapse.
Each thunderclap felt like it struck Lin Moyu himself causing him unbearable anguish.
Every second felt like an eternity.
Finally after ten agonizing minutes the tribulation ended and silence returned.
The three elemental liches floated weakly in Soul Void their forms broken and indistinct their fates uncertain.
Immediately flying over Lin Moyu released three lingering flowers which enveloped them gently in healing light.
As long as they hadn't completely dissipated the flowers offered hope for recovery.
With a wave of his hand the crystal formed from the residual soul flew into his grasp.
Unlike ordinary crystals it brimmed with sentience resembling living materials more than inert ones.
Feeling its energy closely Lin Moyu's eyes gleamed brightly with realization.
This sentience contained memories the remnants of an emperor-level being preserved within its essence despite being crystallized.
Commanding Five Elements Giant to stand guard and activating Thousand Paths and Myriad Images Formation for added security Lin Moyu began absorbing the crystal.
"Let me see who you really are!"
