Chapter 2537: Gate of the Land of Gods

Mist swirled, and ripples swayed on the mud water of the swamp, which was filled with algae and the corpses of swamp creatures, emitting a very strange smell.

The Giant King stood in the mist. Due to the cover of the mist, it was somewhat difficult to see his appearance clearly.

Liu, holding the giant ring, could feel that the giant ahead was looking down at her. This feeling wasn't good.

The Giant King released the curved greatsword in his hand. With a *boom*, this greatsword, which was over ten meters long and had handles at both ends, sank into the mud water, splashing rotten mud from the bottom of the swamp.

"Edri Dewen."

The Giant King's deafening voice came. He lowered his body and sat on the swamp ground. Only then did Su Xiao see the Giant King's appearance clearly.

The Giant King was inlaid with black metal armor plates all over his body and wore a heavy helmet. Through the helmet, one could only see his somewhat reddish eyes.

Liu swallowed her saliva, clearly somewhat at a loss. At this moment, the Giant King's large hand reached over. Liu felt the sky darken even more, pressing down from above.

Liu wasn't stupid. She used all her strength to toss the giant ring in her hand.

*Ding~*

The black metal ring was caught by the Giant King. This thing looked very small in his hand. He stared at Liu for a moment, seemingly confirming that Liu was a descendant of the Edri Wang Zu.

The Giant King held the black metal ring, pulled the curved greatsword out of the mud water with his other hand, and walked toward the rock wall behind him.

*Boom, boom, boom... *

Every step the Giant King took, the ground showed a slight trembling sensation. Seeing this scene, Liu exhaled a long breath. The experience just now was truly too stimulating; the soft underwear on her back was soaked with sweat.

"Don't just stand there, follow him."

Su Xiao followed behind the Giant King, always maintaining a distance of over ten meters to avoid being splashed by the mud water the other party kicked up.

Why would a powerful existence like the Giant King stay in the deepest part of the Misty Swamp? With his strength, he could completely occupy a territory, sit on a soft and dry giant bed, and enjoy the delicacies of the world every day. If he wanted, he could even eat supernatural creatures as meals.

The Giant King didn't do that; he stayed in the dark, damp, and even somewhat

When Beni was exploring some ancient ruins, it discovered a stone tablet which recorded that the Edri royal family had formed an alliance with a certain ancient race to fight against the ancient gods together, and this ancient race was the Ancient Giants.

As the Giant King moved forward, Su Xiao saw many enormous skeletons within the swamp. Some skulls half-buried in the mud and water were taller than he was, and the eye sockets of the skulls could easily allow an adult to crawl inside and use the skull as a small hut to live in.

The further they went, the more enormous skeletons there were. Before long, the swamp ahead disappeared, replaced by ground paved with giant skeletons.

The Giant King stepped onto the skeletons one by one. Due to his weight, the skeletons beneath his feet broke in large patches, which caused the Giant King to stop his steps, pick up a calf bone several meters long from the ground, and press this calf bone against the armor on his forehead.

"Budusasawojia (Giant language: I am with you all)."

Boom, boom, boom...

Shattered bones splattered everywhere. The Giant King stepped on the remains of his clansmen and moved forward. Finally, he stopped in front of two metal giant doors at least fifty meters high; these giant doors were half-embedded in the mountain wall.

These giant doors were crafted entirely from metal, already covered in vines, with a layer of thick moss growing on the lower portion.

At the center of the metal giant doors, there was a protrusion several meters in diameter, and in the center of the protrusion was a groove nearly one meter wide.

The Giant King lightly tossed the curved great blade in his hand and grabbed the spine of the blade. With a click, this great blade, which had handles at both ends, was inserted into the slot of the metal giant doors. The forward protrusion in the middle of the great blade, along with the arc of the ends curving upward, allowed the Giant King to grasp the handles at both ends perfectly.

Or rather, this thing did not entirely count as a weapon; it was one of the keys to these two metal giant doors.

The Giant King grasped a handle with each hand and began to rotate the metal great blade, driving the lock disc at the center of the metal giant doors.

Click-clack-clack-clack...

A harsh and deafening sound spread out. As the Giant King twisted the great blade, the lock disc at the center of the metal giant doors was aligned.

The King's Sword was aligned with the sun, the Tianba clan emblem was aligned with an irregularly shaped crystal, and the Giant's Helmet was aligned with the Gate of Heaven.

With a snap, the lock disc fell off and smashed onto the ground. The rust-covered marks on it indicated that this thing had not been opened for quite some years.

The Giant King pinched the black metal ring with two fingers and wore this thing on his index finger; the size was just right.

Only then did the Giant King take a deep breath, lean his body forward, and push his hands against the two metal giant doors.

Hum~

A wave of energy spread out. The ring on the Giant King's index finger underwent a change, with magma patterns emerging on it. These magma patterns gradually spread to the metal giant doors, eventually clinging to both metal giant doors.

The armor plates embedded all over the Giant King's body bulged. Following his push, a gap appeared in the two metal giant doors ahead.

Rumble...

The ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred, and a light that was not too dazzling shone through the gap in the metal giant doors.

Crack, crack...

Cracks appeared in the surrounding space, a dark blue vortex emerged in the gloomy sky, and the sound of muffled thunder roared incessantly.

With a crack, a bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting the Giant King squarely, but this did not stop him from pushing open the metal giant doors.

The metal giant doors were pushed open completely. The Giant King sat on the ground with a boom, and with blue smoke rising from his body, he lowered his head.

"Giant, and, you all, are, friends."

Just as the Giant King finished speaking, the ring on his index finger shattered, turning into fragments that flew toward the direction of the royal capital.

Su Xiao walked past the Giant King. Just as he arrived in front of the metal giant doors, a prompt from Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

The rewards obtained were not few. It seemed as if Su Xiao did not do much, only letting the Giant King help open the doors, but this was the harvest he had accumulated from the moment he entered this world until now.

Su Xiao met the chieftain and Liu in Bamboo Village, took Liu to the Tower Forest to seize power, then cooperated with Ted to obtain the crown, and through the message provided by Beni as well as the crazy ramblings of the elderly tower guard, deduced the correct usage of the crown, and that it had to be Liu, as an Edri royal, who handed the Giant Ring within the crown to the Giant King.

Many factors, not one could be missing. It was precisely because of this that Su Xiao obtained so many rewards.

Su Xiao put the obtained rewards into his storage space. Just as he was about to walk into the metal giant doors, the Giant King on the side stood up first and walked toward the inside of the metal giant doors. He had guarded here and helped the Edri royal family open the Gate of the God's Hometown, which already fulfilled his promise; now, he was free.

Before walking into the metal giant doors, the Giant King turned his head to look at Chiff. He was actually looking at the Dragon Heart Axe in Chiff's hand. His gaze was somewhat nostalgic. A moment later, he walked into the white light ahead, and his figure gradually disappeared.

Su Xiao stood in front of the white light wall and reached a hand into it. The next moment, a pulling sensation came from his hand.

【Prompt: You have entered the Source·God's Hometown.】
