Chapter 2357: Giant in the Ocean! Translated by: Hypersheep325
Edited by: Michyrr
Li Xuantu was taken aback at first, but after seeing the six giant pillars, he understood.
There was no doubt that the six pillars were the key to everything. If they could comprehend the secrets of the six pillars, they would be able to find a clue linked to the Celestial Palace’s core.
Let’s go!
Wang Chong chose one of the pillars and immediately began to make his way toward it.
Li Xuantu also shot in the same direction.
Rumble!
The two of them hadn’t gone far before they were taken by surprise. With a massive boom, the ocean in front of them parted, and a giant axe sliced through the waves and attacked Wang Chong and Li Xuantu from below.
Before the axe even made impact, a powerful energy had locked onto the pair, distorting space with its immense pressure.
Die!
With a violent and frenzied roar, an enormous figure jumped out of the ocean.
Imposing, ancient, crazed… that figure exuded an energy from an ancient era, and his massive body could leave anyone stunned.
Before the two of them had time to think, that axe was already on the verge of hitting Wang Chong.
Celestial Fortress!
Wang Chong immediately took out Genesis Supreme’s halo divine tool. It appeared in front of him in a blinding flash of light and stopped this frightening attack.
Bang!
The axe clashed with the halo divine tool, the immense destructive power infused into it exploding outward.
Crack!
Where axe met halo, cracks formed along the halo divine tool, energy erupting from them like lava from a volcano and blasting Wang Chong away.
How could this be?!
Wang Chong was alarmed by this sight.
He had never imagined that this opponent would be so powerful that he could create a crack in the halo divine tool with only one strike.
Watch out! This man is absurdly powerful!
Wang Chong flew backward, calling out in warning to Li Xuantu as he tried to neutralize the power of the impact.
That attack had been a simple axe swing without any sort of skill or technique, but it had already been enough to create cracks in the halo divine tool. In other words, this man’s brute strength was enough to reach the Grotto Heaven realm.
Die! Die! Die! Everyone must die!
Frenzied roars came from up ahead.
That giant that had jumped out of the ocean flailed around his giant axe and once more attacked the pair. But this time, his target was the closer Li Xuantu rather than Wang Chong.
With this chance to catch his breath, Wang Chong could finally see what this person looked like.
His body was enormous, nearly nine meters tall, similar to the giants Wang Chong had encountered at the Battle of Talas.
He wore thick black armor on his body, which made his massive body seem even more brimming with strength and power.
He had a thick and messy beard, and his face was pale and seemingly devoid of blood. But the most striking trait was his bronze eyes. They were crazed, chaotic, and seething with endless anger and hatred.
Bang!
The axe slammed down, and even though Li Xuantu had heard Wang Chong’s warning and mentally prepared himself, he was still knocked away like he was a ragdoll.
How could this be? What monster is this?
Several thousand feet away, Li Xuantu looked at this bloodied and numb arm, his mind in turmoil.
While that monster had not used spatial energy, his axe was unbelievably fast. As it swung, it distorted spacetime, preventing Li Xuantu from dodging. Moreover, the blade of the axe had Stellar-Piercing properties. For Li Xuantu, who didn’t use weapons, this was basically a natural counter.
No one is allowed entry! Intruders will all be slain!
The crazed armored giant didn’t care. He had a maddened expression and had completely lost all rationality. After pushing away Li Xuantu, he swung his giant axe again, unleashing a tsunami of Stellar Energy.
Besides that, the ocean for hundreds of thousands of feet around the armored giant began to seethe. Vast quantities of water gathered onto the giant’s Stellar Energy, further strengthening his attack.
The giant’s axe sparkled with blue light, seemingly imbued with incredible magic power.
Kacrack!
There was a boom of thunder, and then ten-some thick lightning bolts crashed down from the thunderclouds above and onto the giant axe.
Wang Chong slightly grimaced at this sight.
This giant already had frightening strength, and by borrowing the power of the ocean and lightning, he grew even more absurdly strong.
Together!
With no hesitation, Wang Chong and Li Xuantu chose to work together against this giant.
Buzz!
They pushed their movement techniques to their limits, turning into indistinct blurs as they attacked the giant from two sides.
Imperial Dragon World-Shaking Fist!
Art of God and Demon Obliteration!
Supreme and Infinite Origin Immortal Art!
Dao of Yin Yang!
These two peerless experts each unleashed their most powerful techniques, raining down attacks on the armored giant.
Bzzz!
As the two of them attacked, Halos of Spacetime of various sizes and in two different colors converged on the armored giant from two directions.
These Halos of Spacetime resonated and spun, slicing at the surrounding fabric of space. Collision with these Halos of Spacetime would obliterate even the toughest armor.
Roooar!
But with a single roar, the nearly-nine-meter-tall giant made a counterattack, his giant axe swinging through the air, shattering the fabric of space and everything within it. Whether it was Wang Chong’s God Demon Obliteration Sword Qi or Li Xuantu’s Imperial Dragon Fist, all of them were torn apart through sheer brute strength.
Not only that, now that the giant had absorbed the lightning, his body began to radiate blue light, and then destructive lightning exploded from his body.
Bangbangbang!
This enormous energy once more sent Wang Chong and Li Xuantu flying.
Dingdingding!
As they were sent flying, they heard a crisp metallic clinging. Turning to the source of the sound, they saw that their Halos of Spacetime had collided with the armored giant.
Yet those Halos of Spacetime that could slice through metal like mud were all blocked by the ancient black armor that the giant wore.
Moments after striking the armor, the seemingly indestructible Halos of Spacetime shattered into pieces.
Spacetime Immunity!
Wang Chong and Li Xuantu were both flabbergasted.
In normal circumstances, only those of the Divine Martial realm could be immune from spacetime energy. Even Grotto Heaven realm experts could only use spacetime energy to neutralize or interfere with the attacks of their foes. Only extremely special existences could possibly be completely immune to spacetime energy.
So rare was this talent that one might not encounter it even after one thousand years. But Wang Chong had shared his memories from Origin Supreme with Li Xuantu, and in Origin Supreme’s memories, there truly had been such an extremely special existence.
This giant had astonishing strength, could control the lightning and the ocean, and even had Spacetime Immunity. This armored giant was absurdly powerful.
Roooar!
As he obliterated the attacks of the pair, the armored giant bellowed, flailing his axe as he used this chance to continue the pursuit.
Though his body was huge, he was not the slightest bit clumsy. On the contrary, he was fast and agile. In this world, he was truly like a fish in water.
Bang!
The axe came swinging down at Li Xuantu, and at the same time, the armored giant clenched his right hand into a fist and punched at Wang Chong.
Boom!
Hundreds of thick lightning bolts were drawn down from the sky and crackled onto the giant’s body, their energy converging on the giant’s right fist as it hurtled at Wang Chong.
The punch distorted space around it, and behind the armored giant, lightning crackled as an ancient thunder god that was recorded in no historical text began to manifest.
Wang Chong, watch out!
Li Xuantu hastily cried out.
This giant was far more powerful than they had imagined. This was their first time seeing the giant use martial arts, and this giant had clearly concluded that Wang Chong was the greater threat. Thus, he had decided to use all of the lightning energy he had gathered on Wang Chong.
The situation was dire, and there was a suffocating pressure in the air. Even before the giant’s huge fist had made impact, the space for hundreds of feet around Wang Chong had already begun to collapse. This, paired with the interference from the Celestial Palace, made it incredibly difficult to use spacetime power.
But in the face of this destructive attack, Wang Chong remained calm and composed.
Clang!
With a clear ring, a light more dazzling than the sun swept through the air, and then an ancient sword appeared that blocked the giant’s attack.
The difference in size between fist and sword was huge, but when the sword emerged, it began to devour the lightning energy in the giant’s right fist like a bottomless black hole.
The Xuanyuan Sword!
When it came to the power of lightning, the Xuanyuan Sword did not lose out to anything or anyone. So long as he had this sword, no lightning, no matter how powerful, could harm him.
Buzz!
The giant’s punch was almost instantly neutralized by Wang Chong. At that moment, Wang Chong felt like the giant’s expression flickered almost imperceptibly, and his movements became slightly slower. Even his mind seemed to no longer be as crazed.
But it was only for the briefest of moments, and Wang Chong quickly had other problems to attend to.
