Chapter 1314

Looking down from above, he discovered that the giant objects emerging from both sides of the pool were actually two pale yellow giant palms; the ten pillars were merely the ten thick fingers on the palms. Now, this pair of palms was slowly extending upward from the soil.

That thirty-to-forty-foot-wide scorching light pool had its water disappear without a trace, becoming unusually deep.

At the center of the pool bottom, a strange light flashed, revealing a giant eyeball two feet in size. This eyeball rotated slowly a few times, emitting a chilling, cold light.

Seeing this scene, Han Li felt a shiver, suddenly recalling a famous race in the Spirit Realm.

His face turned pale in an instant.

Without a second thought, he accelerated his escape speed by nearly double, heading straight for the high sky.

However, after using the Taiyi Transformation Talisman, he truly could not fly very fast.

Although the palace-dressed young woman and the three black-skinned, thin youths of the Silver Wolf Clan had not yet discovered all this, they similarly sensed an inexplicable danger.

The young woman let out a cold snort, opened her mouth, and spat out a crimson brocade handkerchief. With a wave of her hand, a green light the size of a foot shot out like a dragon, circling and dancing around her; it was actually a miraculously strange green flying knife.

The brocade handkerchief spun above her head, instantly transforming into a red, hazy light shield, protecting the young woman within.

The three youths simultaneously formed hand seals with both hands, emitting a pale silver light from their bodies. Then, the three clusters of light merged into one, transforming into a large silver ball that engulfed all three of them.

Just as they finished their defenses, before these four high-tier demon cultivators could perform any other divine abilities.

The ground within nearly a thousand feet, centered on the water pool, emitted a thunderous, earth-shattering sound and simultaneously collapsed.

As the giant eyeball at the bottom of the pool blinked, the Setting Sun Crystal that had been hovering above the pool plummeted, flashing once before merging into the eyeball.

Then, a massive object resembling a mountain slowly sat up from beneath the ground.

Han Li saw it clearly from above.

The giant was several hundred feet tall, its body mostly covered in grayish-yellow soil, with two arms raised in the air; it was a giant living being of unbelievable size.

If Han Li had not previously seen heaven-defying demon spirits like Luo Hou and the Wandering Heaven Kunpeng in the mortal world, he would likely have found it impossible to believe that such a large existence could exist in the world.

Besides a piece of animal skin of unknown material wrapped around the giant's waist, its mountain-like head had a large depression on the forehead, and in the deepest part of that depression, there was only one massive eye.

It was a single eye, with the depression of the giant's eyeball forming a large area of accumulated water.

Besides this, the giant had an unusually ugly flat nose and a long, thin mouth that stretched to its cheeks; as the lips parted slightly, sharp, white teeth were vaguely visible.

The giant had not fully stood up; only its upper body had sat up from the ground, while its lower half remained deeply buried.

It stared with its single eye at the four demon cultivators, who were like ants before it, with not a trace of expression on its face.

"Impossible, it's an ancient giant! Run, we cannot deal with this kind of thing," the palace-dressed young woman cried out, her beautiful face losing all color as she finally saw the appearance of the one-eyed giant clearly.

She finally understood why City Lord Lan did not even ask about the life or death of that monk and retreated directly.

He had clearly seen some signs beforehand.

The young woman did not hesitate any longer; she formed hand seals and urged her power, causing the red light shield on her body to spin rapidly.

With a muffled "bang," the light shield shattered into pieces of red mist, and the young woman inside vanished without a trace.

But the next moment, a red light flashed in the air fifty or sixty feet away, and the young woman's graceful figure appeared.

The three black-skinned, thin youths were equally horrified upon seeing the giant. Seeing the young woman escape, they realized the situation and simultaneously formed hand seals, intending to use their unique escape techniques to distance themselves from the impending disaster.

But just at this moment, the one-eyed giant suddenly opened its mouth, emitting a strange sound from its throat as it inhaled fiercely.

Instantly, a violent wind arose, and the three black-skinned, thin youths felt a massive force suddenly tugging at their protective silver light, pulling them wildly toward the sky.

The three were terrified and desperately formed incantations to resist. But an existence that even Transformation stage cultivators like the young woman and City Lord Lan had to flee from was not something three Nascent Soul cultivators could easily resist.

The three demon cultivators were forcibly lifted from the ground and sent toward the giant's bloody mouth.

At this point, the three demon cultivators were truly terrified.

One of the youths suddenly rolled in the air, transforming into a silver giant wolf several feet long.

This wolf let out a mournful howl toward the high sky, and the other two youths did not hesitate to transform into silver shadows, charging into the giant wolf's body.

Instantly, on both sides of the silver wolf head, dazzling green and red light clusters flashed, each revealing a slightly smaller green and red wolf head.

The three wolf heads howled simultaneously, and then silver, red, and green light mists sprayed from the wolf mouths, instantly joining the protective silver light.

Although this did not stop their movement, their rapid retreat immediately paused and slowed down significantly.

In their desperation, these demon cultivators finally merged into one, returning to the true form of a three-headed demon wolf.

Han Li, hiding in the air, saw this scene and felt a stir in his heart. A graceful figure appeared in his mind, but after a light sigh, he banished the image and refocused his attention on the scene below.

Since the water pool was an illusion created by the giant's single eye, did that not mean that the Spirit Clan rebel had already been swallowed by this giant?

According to his knowledge, the ancient giant race had extremely low intelligence and loved to eat all other races alive; it was impossible for them to identify any divine blood. The bottle containing the divine blood was likely inside the giant's body.

This was extremely troublesome.

Even the lowest-tier ancient giants possessed divine abilities equivalent to the early Void Refinement stage upon reaching adulthood, and some gifted giants could even rival existences above the Body Integration stage.

There were even legends of thousand-eyed giants that could rival true heaven and earth spirits like True Dragons and Heavenly Phoenixes.

Han Li felt some hesitation, but to let him retreat now was something he was extremely reluctant to do.

At this moment, the three-headed silver wolf spat out several treasures from its mouth, trying to break the suction and escape.

But as soon as each appeared, with a "whoosh," they were rolled up by silver runes that appeared out of thin air and were sucked into the giant's mouth, unable to exert any effect.

Consequently, the three-headed silver wolf could only struggle to hold on with its own magic power, its body still drifting slowly toward the giant's mouth.

Even though the giant wolf desperately sprayed three-colored light mists, it could not stop the pull in the slightest.

But even so, the giant grew impatient. It suddenly raised a giant palm and grabbed toward the three-headed wolf demon as if swatting a fly.

A large shadow descended from the sky, covering the wolf demon beneath it. Before it even grabbed down, the wolf demon's protective light flames were pressed by the palm wind, swaying as if they might collapse and vanish at any moment.

Being grabbed by such a terrifying palm, even if its body were harder than iron, it would be crushed into a meat patty.

But the wolf was constrained by a massive force and could not dodge the grab.

The giant wolf could not help but reveal a look of despair!

Just as the hand, the size of a pavilion, was about to grab the three-headed giant wolf, a sudden change occurred.

Suddenly, a yellow light flashed near the giant wolf, and a thin human figure emerged eerily from the void, throwing two punches without a word.

It was the Elder of the Qiong Mouse Clan, Cai Huan Hua Tianqi.

He punched toward the giant hand in the air, while the other punch was aimed at the three-headed wolf demon within the three-colored light flames.

Dazzling spiritual light flashed on both fists, and two yellow light fists emerged and shot out.

"Boom, boom!" Two loud explosions rang out.

One light fist made contact with the giant palm, causing it to pause for a moment before being crushed and dissipated by the massive force.

The other fist struck the wolf demon's protective light flames, causing its body to tremble and be forcibly knocked away like a crossbow bolt, thus escaping the giant's fierce suction.

At this moment, the giant's palm pressed down, but the youth's figure flickered, vanishing from the spot like a ghost.

But immediately, the youth appeared dozens of feet away, having arrived in front of the flying three-headed wolf demon, and tapped lightly toward the incoming wolf.

Points of green light condensed into shape out of thin air, turning into a huge, crystal-clear green mirror in the blink of an eye.

The wolf demon's massive body crashed into the mirror surface, and after ripples spread out, it was slowly bounced away.

"Many thanks to Senior Cai Huan for saving my life!" The three wolf heads, shaking with dizziness, thanked him with extreme joy.

It was actually safe and sound.

"Retreat to the side; you cannot deal with this thing at all. I didn't expect there to be an ancient giant here. It seems it must have been sleeping in the valley since before the Three Realms were established, otherwise, it would have been impossible to enter this place."

Another cluster of white light flashed in the nearby air, and a white-robed man appeared with his hands behind his back. It was Huangliang Lingjun. He stared at the behemoth not far away with slightly narrowed eyes, his expression unusually solemn.

"Hmph, naturally! With a body size like this ancient giant, even if the guards at the entrance to the Three Realms were blind, they could never let such a fierce creature enter our two clans' territory. However, fortunately, this is only a one-eyed giant and it seems to have suffered heavy injuries, which is why it has been sleeping in the valley. If you and I join forces and expend some vitality, we can kill it," the Cai Huan-surnamed youth said with a murderous aura.

"How shall we divide the spoils? I heard that this giant actually carries a large piece of Setting Sun Crystal, which is the best material for refining supreme Yang spiritual treasures," Huangliang Lingjun frowned slightly.

"I have no interest in the things brought by that Spirit Clan rebel; I only want that piece of Setting Sun Crystal," the Cai Huan-surnamed youth seemed to have considered this long ago and said without hesitation.

"Good, it is settled then. You all be careful as well. Although we have temporarily repelled those Spirit Clan members, we must prevent them from returning," Huangliang Lingjun suddenly turned his head and said coldly to some figures appearing in the distance.

Han Li, hearing these words from high above, could not help but look in that direction.

It was City Lord Lan, the palace-dressed young woman, and others returning, along with some other human, demon, and spirit clan members, but there was no sign of any Spirit Clan members.
