The False God shuddered from head to toe.
The tentacles within the black mist suddenly contracted. The twisted faces shrieked in unison as its body began retreating, seeking to merge into the void, seeking to flee.
But Chu Ming raised a hand.
He merely raised a hand.
A gray-gold tribulation beam shot forth!
The beam was only as thick as a finger, yet it was condensed as though tangible.
On its surface, fifty tiny points of light could vaguely be seen slowly revolving. They were projections formed from the concentrated origin power of fifty star domains. As the light points turned, countless minute runes emerged from the tribulation beam. The runes spun at high speed, and with every rotation, the beam's power increased by another measure.
Its speed was astonishing.
So fast that even Gu Chen could not see it clearly.
So fast that even the Dark Division inspectors had no time to react.
The False God let out a scream.
The black mist around it swelled wildly, transforming into countless tentacles that lashed about madly, trying to block that tribulation beam.
The tentacles were as thick as water barrels, their surfaces covered in dense, bizarre runes and emanating a rich aura of decay.
Like countless giant pythons, they lunged at the tribulation beam from every direction, trying to bind it, tear it apart, and devour it.
But it was useless.
Wherever the tribulation beam passed, those tentacles shattered as though made of paper.
The first tentacle exploded the instant it touched the beam, turning into black smoke that filled the sky.
The second, the third, the fourth...
One after another, one after another.
Before the tribulation beam, those tentacles were as fragile as tofu.
At the slightest touch from the beam, they exploded, dispersed, and turned into nothingness.
