Chapter 528
by post_apiChapter 528: Waking Up Soon!
The sound of a weapon brought Zhang Mu back to reality.
While he was distracted, the ghost general had already broken free from the Temporal Confinement and stepped out from the long river of time.
The heavy Crescent Moon Blade was aimed at Zhang Mu’s head. Although the source of the mysterious power was unknown, Zhang Mu was the only one free from the restraints now, so the ghost general naturally assumed it was him who made a move.
Although the power of time was high-level, the one who unleashed it seemed somewhat inexperienced, making it easy for him to find a breakthrough.
The ghost general looked cautious, unsure if Zhang Mu would continue to unleash this power, so he hesitated to attack him immediately.
After all, even his Ghostly Colt was still trapped in that split second of time.
Zhang Mu suddenly realized that Vaidehi seemed to have left him with a huge challenge, without telling him what kind of power to use against this abyssal ghost general.
Could it be necessary to use Duwang River again?
But what if it doesn’t succeed?
He had no more tricks up his sleeve.
Zhang Mu felt nervous as he looked at the ghost general.
Time was passing by, but Zhang Mu didn’t realize that the ghost general had already examined him thoroughly.
Because Vaidehi grew up by the Duwang River behind Zhang Mu, the essence of time and space would subtly emanate.
It was this power that made the ghost general feel uneasy.
However, it wouldn’t last long. Once his Ghostly Colt broke free, the ghost general would continue his mission if Zhang Mu didn’t unleash the same power again.
Wipe out this tribe!
As time passed, other fourth-rank experts with domains began to awaken. However, they were puzzled when they saw Zhang Mu and the ghost general in the distance.
However, some people looked at Zhang Mu thoughtfully, as if they had guessed the truth.
When Hachikuju and the others woke up, they didn’t even notice the changes around them due to the distance, and their actions from the previous second continued the battle.
But the other fourth-rank domain experts saw what their people were facing now. They kept their distance from the battle centered around Zhang Mu and the ghost general, as they didn’t want to get involved.
Zhang Mu’s current feeling is pure suffering, every moment is torment.
Queen Vaidehi unexpectedly handed over the biggest challenge to him.
The Corpse Emperor and his followers stood aside, coldly watching everything. No one dared to break the deadlock now, afraid of angering the high and mighty ghost general.
Where does Vaidehi get her confidence from? Does she really think I can overcome this crisis? Just dealing with the Undead Legion, did I overlook something?
Zhang Mu’s mind is a tangled mess right now, unable to sort out his thoughts. The pressure he is under is overwhelming.
If he can’t deal with this ghost general, then even binding the Undead Legion would be useless.
Because even the lower-ranked human race were constrained by this power, unable to escape or resist, how many moves can they withstand under the control of this mysterious ghost commander?
As time passed, Zhang Mu’s greatest fear finally came true!
The Ghostly Colt had begun to show signs of movement, its raised forelegs seemed ready to break through the imprisonment of time and break free from its cage.
Sure enough, when Zhang Mu met the gaze of the ghost commander this time, he noticed a hint of impatience in his eyes.
Once this Ghostly Colt truly breaks free, the ghost commander probably won’t hesitate anymore.
However, where could Zhang Mu release that power of time!
He tried to communicate with Duwang River, but to no avail, he wouldn’t come out unless he lured souls, and as for Queen Vaidehi growing on the riverbank, that cluster of Lycoris radiata, Zhang Mu couldn’t even reach it.
Finally, as Zhang Mu wracked his brains for a solution, the previously motionless Ghostly Colt let out a long howl, breaking free from the control of Temporal Confinement.
The black flames under its feet seemed to intensify due to its emotional changes, clearly it knew something had happened.
The ghost warrior didn’t hesitate anymore. He raised his Crescent Moon Blade high above and brought it down towards Zhang Mu’s head, covering the area where he was.
The intense pressure from the Abyss Judicator made it difficult for Zhang Mu to move, but the nearby fourth-rank strong warriors were relieved.
Indeed, this ghost warrior was only targeting this unfamiliar young member of the plant army. It made sense for them to have walked away just now.
A huge life-and-death crisis engulfed Zhang Mu’s body!
This ghost warrior, from the hell dimension, was tasked with capturing souls. He was the nemesis of all demons, and his power far surpassed theirs.
All they could do was watch as the Crescent Moon Blade slowly descended, with no one able to help him.
Cang Yu had a cold smile on his face. He had already realized that the one behind the present Temporal Confinement was Queen Vaidehi. He also knew what fate awaited Queen Vaidehi after using this ability.
With Queen Vaidehi as his backer, Zhang Mu’s ambition to become emperor was within reach. Why would he offer help to Zhang Mu now, if not for the presence of the ghost warrior? He almost wished to take care of Zhang Mu himself.
If given the chance, Cang Yu would be the first to act against Zhang Mu.
One reason was the sense of hidden threat, and the other reason was that he had already considered Qing Ling as his fiancée. He was furious to see her being intimate with this stranger, even if he didn’t have feelings for her.
Qian Lin was truly afraid of this power, which led him to choose to protect himself wisely.
White Phoenix Yuan Rui and Hachikuju had already been in a fierce battle with Death Phoenix Demoness Moon, enveloped in a sense of despair. They had no idea about the situation with Zhang Mu.
Zhang Mu was completely alone now!
He was all on his own!
The increasing sense of impending death was overwhelming Zhang Mu, making it hard for him to breathe.
Facing death and not being able to avoid it was a very frustrating feeling.
“Thud!”
At that moment, a sudden thumping sound came from Zhang Mu’s body, causing the ghost to stop their attack.
“Thud!”
Just as Zhang Mu was puzzled, the White Tiger Emperor in the distance also made the same sound, and his face looked extremely bad.
It’s the Blood Lotus!
The one that just absorbed a lot of fourth-rank energy is the Blood Lotus!
Sensing the presence of the crystal core, the Blood Lotus is calling it back.
Previously, it was replenishing energy to evolve its recall ability.
The Blood Lotus senses Zhang Mu in a life-threatening situation and is about to awaken!
Because inside the White Tiger Emperor’s body is a crystal core that also holds a part of the Blood Lotus’s will.
The Blood Lotus is using that reserve to shatter its main will and awaken once again!
The real Blood Lotus, The Source of Wood, is coming back.
