Chapter 375: Giant Slaying (2/2)
The true body of the eleventh wave emerged. It looked like a massive claw spanning rushing out of the earth and tried to grab him.
Its temperature was even more frightening with an incomparable strength.
Feiyun had his ring positioned above his head with the six diagrams in six directions. The Eight Trigrams floated above his head. The Ten Thousand Lights was below him. In front was the Netherworld Spirit Pagoda with the Four Yang Ancient Cauldron behind him. To the left was the Heavenly Flying King and to the right was the Hundred Ghosts Banquet.
The six diagrams acted like six different worlds.
“Minor Change Art! Heaven Battle Altar!” Forty white altars protected forty different locations on his body. He didn’t believe that the lava could get through these two defensive layers.
“Boom!” The claw finally came and grasped the six diagrams till they started to shrink. It made contact with the battle altar next.
“Break!” He pushed up with both hands. The altars and the six diagrams erupted and blew up the lava as he flew straight out.
At this time, the twelfth lava showed itself!
“The demon’s son has exceeded the eleventh lava. His aptitude is really higher than the other historical geniuses.”
“The legendary twelfth one has finally appeared. Only wise sages on the sacred tablet could bring about this type of tribulation.”
The cultivators here were witnessing history. Such an event might not happen once in several thousand years.
This wave didn’t come from the earth but descended from the sky instead. Someone saw an indescribable crimson waterfall pouring down.
“This wave is unreal. It’s not only the power of the earth but contains a strand of the heavenly tribulation too. The two are fused together.”
“It looks like an Earth Tribulation with a heavenly interference but even more devastating.” [2]
“This shows his outrageous talents. It’s understandable that a heavenly power is coming to get rid of him.”
“Wait… someone else is attacking while hiding behind the lava!” Someone shouted in horror.
Behind the lava wave were three spirit treasures with the Moon Mountain Cauldron leading the way. The other two were second-ranked spirit treasures with impressive offensive power. All were used by Giants.
Many older cultivators were wounded by this pressure and spat out blood even though they were a hundred miles away.
A Giant could utilize a spirit treasure to its fullest potential, even if it is only a first-ranked weapon. They could easily annihilate a city; this was the true power of these treasures.
Moreover, there was a third-ranked and two second-ranked treasures at this moment. The power was even more calamitous.
The Divine King started by using his best spirit treasure, a third-ranked with the shape of a jade seal. It met the three spirit treasures at the same time so they wouldn’t interfere with Feiyun’s tribulation.
“You dare to attack again?! You think I’m too old to kill now?!” The king snorted and directly rushed out with his jade seal with a draconic energy surrounding his body.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!” His jade seal alone repelled all three treasures. It wasn’t because they weren’t powerful enough; the king was simply too mighty.
“Whoosh!” He became the hunter. With a flash, he appeared several thousand miles away and fought against the three Giants.
Two miserable screams resounded. Two of them couldn’t stop his offense and ran towards the horizon with grievous injuries.
“Bang!” He fiercely smashed down with his seal and murdered the last one!
A Giant has fallen. His blood began to scorch the earth with a crimson fire for a long time. This was the last bit of energy from a big shot. It could burn for three months straight before depleting completely and extinguishing.
It was very difficult to kill a Giant but the king had just killed one to the horror of the crowd.
“Long Chuanfeng, your vitality is still fine after living for 800 years. Could it be that you have reached the Paramount Giant level?” Someone loudly asked.
This person used the Moon Mountain cauldron to stop the king from killing another wounded Giant.
He looked around the age of sixty with an ancient crest. A chilling fog loomed around his body on top of a noble and oppressive aura. He began to fight the king with his cauldron.
1. I remember an interesting conversation about the usage of the word “world” for Tianxia. When people say world in wuxia, they don’t actually mean the entire world or universe but only what’s close around them, what is directly affecting them. It’s similar to Jianghu that there is no English equivalent; world fits but it’s not exactly right. So when Feiyun said that he was the strongest in the world, he was the strongest in his own geographical scope.
