Chapter 1830: The tenth sun of Immortal Astral, enraged! (Fourth update)

Lü Wenran slowly spoke, his expression revealing nothing.

Given his status, he shouldn't have uttered such words, but for the sake of the Soul Armor, he had no choice but to slander the other party!

Because the final step of the Soul Armor's Fusion required the participation of everyone here, their collective will. Only when the vast majority of Cultivators here recognized him could their will be channeled into the Heavenly Ox soul summoned by their cultivation and blood, thus allowing him to fuse with the Armor.

Once fused, things would be vastly different; he would no longer need to consider anyone's thoughts.

"Elder Wang, I didn't expect you to be like this… With your cultivation, how could you possibly kill an Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivator? It's one thing if you couldn't kill him, and it's one thing if you hid on the battlefield, unwilling to take risks. No one would say anything about you, even though many people in our Third Lair have already become heroic souls!

But even though they died, they did so honorably. I will not forget them, everyone here will not forget them, and Tianniu Continent will not forget them!!

Put away that head and step down from here. I can pretend that what just happened never occurred. Otherwise, if you are merely using this to deceive us and claim false credit, I can kill you directly without even asking Old Ancestor!!

Because your actions are not insulting me, but insulting the nearly ten thousand heroic souls who died, and insulting all of us Cultivators here!!" Lü Wenran's voice carried a strange power as he stared at Wang Lin and roared.

His expression was very agitated, appearing as if his words truly reflected extreme anger at Wang Lin's insulting behavior! But he was still restraining himself, as if heartbroken.

As soon as his words came out, the uproar caused by Wang Lin's display of Liu Zhiyuan's head was immediately and significantly quelled, causing the more than one thousand Cultivators below to fall silent and ponder.

Many of them looked at Wang Lin with disdain and anger.

"What Elder Lü said is quite true; this person absolutely does not possess that level of cultivation. He must have taken the head to impersonate!"

"Such a person is utterly shameless!"

"That's right, with Elder Lü's status and cultivation, how could he speak carelessly? He saw with his own eyes that someone else made the move, so it shouldn't be wrong."

"Something's not quite right though. If Elder Lü saw it before, why is he only speaking up now?"

Amidst the clamor and discussion, only the few Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivators, naturally having their own judgment, remained calm as they watched Wang Lin and Lü Wenran.

Listening to Lü Wenran's words, Wang Lin shook his head, looking at the other party with a hint of mockery, his expression a half-smile, completely unconcerned.

When Lü Wenran saw Wang Lin's expression and gaze, his heart suddenly sank, vaguely feeling that something was amiss. However, he had considered everything thoroughly, thinking that once these words were spoken, the other party would absolutely not be able to produce real evidence.

Unless it was his Primordial Spirit… Thinking of this, Lü Wenran stopped worrying. Although he hadn't witnessed the other party's death, he clearly sensed the aura and impact of Liu Zhiyuan's Primordial Spirit collapsing before his death, knowing that the other party could absolutely not still have a Primordial Spirit and had long since completely died.

"I produced his head, and you say I'm impersonating. Then take a look at this!" Wang Lin's eyes revealed a cold glint. He no longer played along with Lü Wenran, raising his right hand and waving it, and next to Liu Zhiyuan's head, a second head appeared!

This head belonged to Xu Decai, the Early Stage Empty Tribulation Realm Grand Venerable from Green Devil Continent! Xu Decai's head was in a sorry state, his dim eyes showing infinite fear and resentment, and there were dried brown bloodstains in his seven orifices!

As soon as this head appeared, the entire underground palace fell into a deathly silence. Everyone's gaze was fixed on this head, and even the three Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivators from nearby Schools suddenly stood up from their cross-legged positions!

"It's him!!"

"Xu Decai!! I fought this person in the first battle. His Divine Ability was extremely fast, and ordinary Cultivators of the same rank were simply no match for him!!"

"I wondered why this person didn't appear in the second battle. So… so he was actually killed by Elder Wang!!"

The three of them gasped, looking at each other, seeing the shock and awe in each other's eyes!

Yan Luan's expression also changed, and she subconsciously stood up, staring at Xu Decai's head, her face showing disbelief. In her opinion, it was already extremely rare for Wang Lin to be able to kill one, but now, she saw a second one!!

And Xu Dongde, his mind boomed, and for the first time, a deep apprehension appeared in his eyes as he looked at Wang Lin. His earlier words of help were actually just because he found Lü Wenran too pretentious and disliked him internally, but now, he felt that his words were extremely correct!

If this Wang Lin was still unqualified, then everyone here would be unqualified!

As for the Elder surnamed Zhou nearby, his face was even paler. He clearly remembered that he had not thought highly of Wang Lin back then, and his words were very impolite. Recalling it now, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"This Evil Star!! He has two Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivator heads; it's impossible that he just happened to encounter and cut off the heads of two people after someone else killed them to impersonate…"

After the silence, the more than one thousand Cultivators below erupted with a shock and awe far exceeding before. The heads of the Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivators, who were high above them in their eyes, were now held in Wang Lin's hand. This visual impact gave them a mental shock and a physical tremor.

"You can also say that you personally saw an unfathomably powerful Old Man who, after killing the first Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivator from Green Devil Continent, I just happened to see and cut off his head.

Then that unfathomably powerful Old Man appeared again when I was out on patrol, killed the second Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivator from Green Devil Continent, and I just happened to see it again, so I cut off his head again." Wang Lin spoke leisurely, looking at Lü Wenran, whose expression was rapidly changing.

Lü Wenran's mind was roaring like towering waves at this moment. He looked at Xu Decai's head, his scalp tingling, and stared at Wang Lin in horror. He never expected that Wang Lin had actually killed two Early Stage Empty Tribulation Realm Cultivators consecutively. Such cultivation, even he had to take it extremely seriously!!

Especially this Xu Decai, who was well-known in Green Devil Continent, even Lü Wenran had heard of him and knew how terrifyingly fast his spellcasting speed was.

In the first battle, when he fought against Zhang Daozong, he recognized Xu Decai from a distance!

After Wang Lin's words, Lü Wenran's expression became somewhat distorted, and he slowly spoke.

"I didn't see that unfathomably powerful Old Man make a move, but if he could make a move once, it's very possible he made a move a second time! As for this head being in your hand, I can only say that you were quite lucky, you…" Xu Decai's words were abruptly cut off by Wang Lin's laughter.

Amidst Wang Lin's laughter, his left hand suddenly rose, and within his left palm, a ghost appeared. This ghost let out a mournful roar, and its appearance was none other than Xu Decai!!

"Lü Wenran, look at this!" Wang Lin suddenly stared at Lü Wenran!

The moment Lü Wenran saw this ghost, his face immediately turned pale, his body swayed, and he staggered back a few steps, opening his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately had nothing to say!

With the appearance of Xu Decai's ghost, all his previous words crumbled!

"Fellow Daoist Zhou, how do we proceed with the Soul Armor Fusion? Let's not waste time!" Wang Lin's gaze swept over the Elder surnamed Zhou in an instant.

The Old Man's heart trembled, and he nodded repeatedly. At this moment, Lü Wenran was speechless. Unless Lü Wenran was prepared to forcefully attack and kill Wang Lin, otherwise, the general situation was set!

"Fellow Daoists, the final step of the Soul Armor Fusion, because your blood and cultivation summoned the Heavenly Ox soul, requires your will. The Armor can fuse with whomever the majority of you choose with your will!" The Elder surnamed Zhou held back a bit, not directly naming anyone, so as not to offend Lü Wenran too much.

As soon as his words came out, silence immediately fell. Lü Wenran suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with killing intent as he stared at Wang Lin, weighing the pros and cons in his heart, but he was truly unwilling to give up just like that!

"Audacious scoundrel, you impersonate credit and insult heroic souls, this crime deserves death!!" Lü Wenran gritted his teeth, having made up his mind. He would absolutely not allow Wang Lin to obtain the Armor. Otherwise, given the conflict and killing intent between him and the other party during this period, he feared he would immediately be suppressed.

There was nothing more to consider in this matter; Lü Wenran had already gone all out!

"As long as he dies, he won't be able to compete with me for the Soul Armor. At most, I'll fight desperately on this battlefield to achieve great merit, then return to the Sect to accept punishment! I believe Old Ancestor won't put me to death for a dead man!" Lü Wenran roared, his body flashing out, heading straight for Wang Lin at an extremely fast speed!

Wang Lin had long been wary of the other party. At the instant Lü Wenran moved forward, he immediately retreated, raising his right hand. The first Divine Vein Vortex formed by the Divine Speed Art within his body rapidly spun, giving Wang Lin extremely fast spellcasting speed!

At the same time, the Soul Armor behind Wang Lin emitted endless ghostly light. This was because, due to the words of the Elder surnamed Zhou just now, the more than one thousand Cultivators below had already quickly revealed their wills, making their choice between Lü Wenran and Wang Lin!

"All Cultivators of my Extreme Heaven Grassland, Elder Wang once saved my life. This old man hopes you choose him!" Amidst this choice, an old man with white hair in the crowd, with bright eyes, looked at the sky and slowly said.

Given his status in the Extreme Heaven Grassland, these words immediately drew the attention of some people present!

Yan Luan gritted her silver teeth, suddenly flashed, and rushed towards Lü Wenran. She made her choice with action, deciding to help Wang Lin fight back! To take a gamble!

And Xu Dongde, after a slight hesitation, also chose to act. Since he had already spoken before, he wasn't afraid of completely offending Lü Wenran!

This is the Fourth Update for today, and the 78th update for this month. There are still two more updates to go. No matter what, I have to fulfill the promise of at least 80 updates. Damn it, I won't make random promises anymore.
