Chapter 3789: It's You Again!
The Soul-Corroding Water descended upon the elemental lich, bypassing the barrier created by the Space Great Dao.
Due to the influence of the Soul Great Dao, even the Space Great Dao couldn't block its effects.
"Can it withstand this?"
The Soul-Corroding Water was immensely powerful, and Lin Moyu wasn't entirely confident in the elemental lich's ability to endure it.
However, he couldn't intervene the Great Dao tribulation had to be faced by the elemental lich alone.
The elemental lich continued projecting its actions clearly for Lin Moyu to observe.
To Lin Moyu's astonishment, the lich held the Soul-Corroding Water as if it were a toy cupping it in its small hands and bringing it to its mouth. First, it licked it with its tongue, then took a large sip.
Afterward, it laughed joyfully a laugh that reverberated through Soul Void.
Seeing this, Lin Moyu finally relaxed. The elemental lich could drink Soul-Corroding Water without issue it clearly wasn't afraid of it at all.
"It's because the treasure material is of such high quality!" Lin Moyu realized. If not for the exceptional level of the material used to summon the lich, overcoming this tribulation wouldn't have been so easy.
The elemental lich played with the water for a while occasionally drinking more appearing completely content.
Eventually, the Soul-Corroding Water vanished, leaving the lich looking somewhat disappointed as if its toy had been taken away.
The fifth tribulation didn't appear the tribulation clouds dispersed and calm returned to Soul Void.
The Great Dao tribulation had been successfully overcome.
Those ominous eyes slowly closed but Lin Moyu felt as though they were still watching him as they narrowed before shutting completely.
When darkness fell, billions of miles around were engulfed in shadow even the Great Dao ceased functioning temporarily.
Suddenly, Lin Moyu felt a numbing sensation throughout his body and thunderous sounds echoed within his soul.
A sharp pain surged from deep within his soul accompanied by intense paralysis that spread across his entire being.
His soul was immobilized unable to make any movements or even cry out in agony.
When his vision finally returned, Lin Moyu remained paralyzed his body encased in chains of lightning that wrapped tightly around him.
Little Python was similarly affected shrouded in lightning and unable to move.
Both wore expressions of discomfort the pain was evident but neither could vocalize their suffering.
Just then, the newly formed elemental lich flew over circling Lin Moyu curiously before poking at the lightning surrounding him.
When some lightning touched the lich it showed no reaction whatsoever.
"Haha! This is fun!"
The elemental lich laughed gleefully not bothered by the lightning at all it even found it amusing.
Having just endured a tribulation the lich's body was incredibly resilient a mere lightning strike was akin to a tickle for it.
Lin Moyu could only watch helplessly unable to move or respond.
This lightning was punishment from those eyes a clear message that they were displeased with Lin Moyu's repeated disruptions.
Great Dao tribulations rarely occurred but Lin Moyu had triggered several in quick succession forcing this entity to intervene repeatedly.
It had clearly grown resentful and decided to leave this parting "gift" as a warning before departing.
Though frustrated Lin Moyu couldn't retaliate the entity hadn't killed him it merely issued a stern reminder and he had no recourse against such power.
Suddenly, Lin Moyu sensed something approaching from afar.
"A Great Dao Beast!"
Activating Undead Eye, Lin Moyu observed a soul flame moving rapidly toward him it belonged to a Great Dao Beast heading straight for his location.
"Strange it seems to be coming directly for me."
"Why would it know I'm here? Great Dao Beasts are numerous but scattered across vast areas what's drawing this one toward me?"
"Could something be attracting it?"
Lin Moyu recalled his first encounter with a Great Dao Beast which occurred when he acquired treasure material to summon an elemental lich.
"Is the elemental lich attracting Great Dao Beasts?" he wondered briefly before dismissing the idea: "No it must be the treasure material."
Great Dao Beasts likely sensed the aura of treasure materials but only within certain ranges due to their distance and distribution across Soul Void.
Given how expansive vacuum zones were it took time for beasts to locate their targets which explained why encounters were spaced days apart.
Perhaps this particular beast was simply closer than others allowing it to reach him quickly.
While immobilized, Lin Moyu pondered ways to test his theory: if he exposed treasure material outside it might attract more beasts but he couldn't move anything from storage due to his paralysis.
This realization underscored how vast the gap in power between him and that entity truly was.
Using faint mental commands, Lin Moyu instructed the elemental lich: "Go deal with that approaching Great Dao Beast."
The elemental lich glanced at Lin Moyu briefly before focusing on its target a rapidly advancing beast and vanished instantly.
In an instant it reappeared before the beast and unleashed spatial power that tore open a massive rift in Soul Void.
This rift resembled Beast Abyss but contained terrifying spatial forces distinct from those found there.
The Great Dao Beast was swallowed by the rift and as it entered the chaotic spatial forces inside shredded it into pieces.
Despite its formidable defenses and unparalleled regenerative abilities the beast stood no chance against Space Great Dao's destructive power.
The beast perished within moments and as the rift closed space returned to normal.
Reappearing before Lin Moyu the elemental lich grinned mischievously: "Master I'm amazing, aren't I?"
Though impressed Lin Moyu couldn't voice his approval due to his paralysis.
While killing a Great Dao Beast so easily demonstrated its strength the loss of beast essence left Lin Moyu feeling regretful.
After all the primary goal of hunting such beasts was obtaining their essence and now there was none left.
Still he couldn't blame the elemental lich it had simply misunderstood his intentions due to unclear instructions.
Using faint mental commands again, Lin Moyu asked: "Tell me about your abilities."
Obediently the elemental lich began explaining its powers enthusiastically:
As suspected it had replicated Space Great Dao itself not merely its projection form.
While slightly weaker than Space Great Dao's true body it remained significantly stronger than ordinary Dao Lords and capable of killing them effortlessly as evidenced by how easily it dispatched the beast.
Its capabilities against realm masters remained uncertain as realm masters drew strength from entire worlds but Lin Moyu suspected fully-formed world wills might still surpass it slightly.
Most importantly as an entity born from replicating true Daos the elemental lich defied natural order a reverse-heaven creation inherently rejected by Daos themselves.
Great Dao tribulations existed solely to destroy such beings but even after surviving them they remained unwelcome within natural order.
Any significant actions taken by these entities risked invoking severe consequences.
Before Lin Moyu could reflect further a powerful pressure descended upon them and another rift appeared in space.
Those enormous eyes returned once more but this time they glared furiously at Lin Moyu with an expression that seemed to say: "It's you again!"
