Chapter 306: Heard You Killed Me?

"Die!"

Three Supernatural Fifth Rank Hell Giants, seeing the Armored Strong-Arm Giant and Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant break free of the Dark Dragon state and revert to their original forms, instantly unleashed their strongest skill.

However, they did not know that even if they did not act, the Armored Strong-Arm Giant and Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant, after ending the Dark Dragon embodiment, lacked the ability to continue fighting and could not even maintain bodily integrity.

During the period they embodied the Dark Dragon, they were immune to all attacks, but once they left that state, the damage would rebound onto their bodies manifold.

Even the Armored Strong-Arm Giant, whose Supernatural Grade had reached the fifth rank, after being pounded by three fifth-rank Hell Giants for so long, had suffered damage not to be underestimated, long exceeding the limits of its flesh.

If that damage were to increase severalfold and rebound upon itself, the result would be even more obvious.

The Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant, weaker in strength, suffered damage no less than the Armored Strong-Arm Giant, and the outcome was just as grim.

At the moment the three Hell Giants unleashed their strongest skill, the bodies of the Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant and the Armored Strong-Arm Giant bulged with masses of flesh.

With a 'pfft' sound, blood sprayed everywhere; finally, with a 'bang', their entire bodies exploded into a mist of blood.

Even their bones were no exception, turning into tiny fragments that scattered outward.

Finally, struck by the Hell Giants' strongest skill, they were further blasted into powder, leaving not even a trace.

After the powerful energy surge subsided, only a crater several kilometers in diameter remained where the Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant and Armored Strong-Arm Giant had stood, with not even a trace of their figures left.

"Ha!"

"Finally settled!"

The fifth-rank Hell Giant pointed his sword forward and let out a breath of relief.

Those two Dark Dragons brought them deep fear; the scene where any attack was ineffective and they were forced to take hits left them feeling utterly helpless.

Such an ability is truly unstoppable and underhanded; even if the opponent is far weaker, possessing it makes the fight unwinnable.

Moreover, after embodying the Dark Dragon, even a Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant with only a fourth-rank Supernatural Grade could exert the combat power of a newcomer to the fifth rank.

Combined with the ability to ignore damage and consumption, they could incessantly use the strongest skill, Dark Dragon Breath, completely overwhelming ordinary fifth-rank Supernatural beings.

Even giants, a race naturally strong in individual strength, have no counter against such an unreasonable skill and can only keep taking hits.

Moreover, the power of Dark Dragon Breath is outrageously great; even though these three fifth-rank Hell Giants are defense-oriented, they are now covered in wounds.

If it weren't for the end of the Dark Dragon embodiment state, in order to prevent the monster inside another flesh mass from being born.

They would likely have to use the secret technique that inflicts a thousand damage on the enemy while self-damaging nine hundred ninety-nine, forcibly breaking free of the Dark Dragon's attack to destroy that flesh mass, showing how great the pressure the Dark Dragon placed on them.

Now seeing that the Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant and Armored Strong-Arm Giant left not even a trace, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least no longer having to face such a terrifying monster.

But they did not relax, knowing the battle was not over; in this city there remained a Dark Dragon, Su Hao's true form, an unformed flesh mass, and a formed flesh mass.

Just as Su Hao had thought, these Hell Giants of the third layer could indeed see the scenes unfolding in the first and second layers.

They knew the Armored Strong-Arm Giant had hatched from that flesh mass.

They are all badly wounded; if a victorious fifth-rank Armored Strong-Arm Giant were to hatch from that flesh mass, given their current state, they would have no hope of winning at all.

More importantly, from the earlier battle they already knew the Armored Strong-Arm Giant could use the unstoppable Dark Dragon Embodiment; thus, the monster about to be born from that flesh ball might also possess it—if it truly could use Dark Dragon Embodiment, they could just sit and wait for death.

Fortunately, through the scene of the second layer they knew the monster inside that flesh ball would not hatch so soon.

It would take several hours, and with the Armored Strong-Arm Giant and Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant now dead, they now have plenty of time.

They exchanged a glance, briefly communicated in two sentences, and then split into three groups.

One raised the staff in hand, aiming at the Dark Dragon formed from the Three-Tailed Molten Weng Dragon; with the other two Dark Dragons no longer blocking, naturally they sought to save their own kin.

The strongest of the fifth-rank Hell Giants, wielding his wolf-tooth club, sprinted toward Su Hao, vaguely feeling that Su Hao was the leader of these three Dark Dragons.

Although they relied on the images transmitted from the second-layer space, they could not yet confirm that the Armored Strong-Arm Giant was made by Su Hao through mutant splicing.

Nevertheless, they vaguely sensed that the appearance of these flesh balls was importantly related to Su Hao; killing him might perhaps end everything.

However, when the strongest Hell Giant was still five or six kilometers away from Su Hao.

then they saw a large amount of blood suddenly erupt from the blood-red robe on Su Hao's body, covering a range of several kilometers, while underground even more blood surged forth, covering most of the city.

Moreover, this blood was not ordinary; it contained powerful energy, being fourth-rank Supernatural Grade blood.

Even though this blood possessed no significant offensiveness, its enormous volume and great speed still put all the Hell Giants on alert.

Even the number-one Hell Giant, the strongest with Supernatural Grade at mid-fifth rank, could not help but stop and warily survey the surroundings.

The Dark Dragon had truly frightened him; he now greatly worried that this vast sea of blood might be some kind of trap.

Before he could think further, he saw two huge blood balls appear in the sea of blood ahead, one only one or two hundred meters in diameter, the other over a thousand meters.

"Is this the attack method of this sea of blood?"

His brows furrowed, his gaze cold as he fixed on the two blood balls, preparing to meet their attack.

After a moment, the two blood balls emitted a loud 'bang'; shortly before, the Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant and Armored Strong-Arm Giant, who had just been blasted to nothing, actually walked out of those blood balls unharmed.

Seeing this, the Armored Strong-Arm Giant wielding the wolf-tooth club instantly changed expression and reflexively stepped back.

"Holy shit, he's not dead—what the hell kind of monster is this?!"

In the Dark Dragon embodiment state, those three Supernatural Fifth Rank giants had no counter against them and could only keep taking blows.

After barely enduring until the opponent's state ended, leaving them blasted to nothing, the result was that in the blink of an eye they recovered unharmed—how could this be? But the next moment, he paused slightly, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he sprinted toward Su Hao at greater speed.

"This person is definitely the key!"

This sea of blood covering half the city was caused by this young human man before us.

Those two giants were revived precisely because of the appearance of this sea of blood.

Moreover, this man had not lifted a hand in the recent battle; likely the formation of those two blood balls is also closely tied to him, so killing him would surely end everything.

No matter what, we must kill this man before those two giants re-embody as Dark Dragons.

After realizing this, the Hell Giant's speed increased a bit; in the blink of an eye he passed between the Six-Armed One-Eyed Giant and the Armored Strong-Arm Giant and stood before Su Hao: "Give me……die!"

The Hell Giant let out a roar, gripping the wolf-tooth club with both hands and raising it overhead.

The next moment.

His two arms thickened, veins bulging on his arms; with each heartbeat, dark-red runes emitted scorching firelight, a faint white vapor rose from his whole body, and he poured all his strength into a crushing blow aimed at Su Hao.

Only a loud 'boom' was heard as the tremendous force instantly shattered Su Hao's body.

A powerful shockwave burst from the tip of the wolf-tooth club, pushing back the surrounding seawater, and in this blood sea it formed a vacuum over a kilometer in diameter.

After several seconds, the surrounding blood slowly fell back, gradually filling the vacuum.

"Tch! That's all?"

The Hell Giant smirked in contempt, exactly as I had thought—this young human male is merely a summoner-type profession, possessing little real combat strength.

His main purpose must be to resurrect dead giants and, using the corpses of Hell Giants, summon that special kind of giant.

Since these are all his summoned beasts, killing him will likely cause the rest to perish with him not long after.

The Hell Giant glanced back at the armored strong-arm giant and the six-armed one-eyed giant behind him, seeing they were listless, and grew more convinced of his idea.

"Oh no, he's coming out… ah!"

But just then, the Number Three Hell Giant, who was about to go destroy the meat ball, suddenly let out a cry; before he could finish speaking, a painful wail echoed through the city's skies.

Upon hearing that wail, the Number One Hell Giant froze slightly, turned his head toward the source, and his expression instantly changed.

"This is impossible!"

Only to see a kilometer-tall armored strong-arm giant tear apart a meat ball several kilometers in diameter, step out of it, and with one punch send the heavily wounded Number Three Hell Giant flying.

The force of that punch was immense; even if the Number Three Hell Giant were at his peak, catching it off guard would still be unpleasant.

Much less for the Number Three Hell Giant in a heavily wounded state—under that punch, his chest flesh and bones burst completely open, revealing the dark-red core.

Clearly, black cracks spread across it, obviously damaging the core.

One reason is that the armored strong-arm giant's punch was extremely powerful, reaching the intermediate level of the fifth rank.

The other reason is that the Number Three Hell Giant had already suffered heavy injuries in his earlier battle with the two dark dragons.

These two factors combined, resulting in such severe injuries.

If nothing unexpected happens, a few more blows will completely shatter his core, ending his life.

"Impossible, how could this be…"

The Number One Hell Giant watched this scene, his face filled with disbelief—the casters are already dead, so how could a giant hatch from that meat lump? This makes no sense at all.

But just then, a light laugh came from behind him.

"Impossible? What do you mean by 'impossible'?"

Hearing that, the Number One Hell Giant snapped his head back, seeing the surrounding blood converge toward a point and take on a human shape.

Gradually, the blood turned into black bones, then crimson blood, and finally skin, hair, and clothing.

In the blink of an eye, Su Hao appeared before the Number One Hell Giant, wearing a blood-red robe.

"You don't think… that a light tap of that club could kill me, do you?"

Su Hao grinned, showing no sign of injury.

As an aberrant blood demon, he resides within an entire blood sea; wanting to kill him is fundamentally impossible.

Unless the whole blood sea is destroyed, no matter how grievous his wounds, he can instantly recover.

One could say that as long as the blood sea does not run dry, he will not die!

If the Number One Hell Giant could really destroy the entire blood sea with a single strike, then…

Likewise, Su Hao could not be killed either; as long as blood remains around him, he can await his revival.

The Hell Giant's body also contains blood!

However, judging by the current situation, the Number One Hell Giant lacks the ability to destroy an entire blood sea.

"Even if you're not dead, it's impossible to summon that giant so quickly—in the second layer…"

"Who told you that seeing is believing?"

Su Hao shook his head, cutting off the Number One Hell Giant.

Since he already guessed what happened in the first and second layers, and it's possible the third-layer Hell Giant saw it, how could he not have prepared?

Wanting to aberrantly fuse a transcendent fifth-rank armored strong-arm giant indeed requires a great deal of time; it cannot be finished in just a few minutes.

But this is only under normal circumstances.

As long as sufficient energy is provided, the time needed to complete the aberrant fusion will be greatly shortened.

Su Hao's reason for distancing himself from the battlefield after the fight began was precisely to prepare for this.

After the battle began, he silently infused the blood from the blood-sea robe underground, flowing beneath that meat lump to provide it with massive energy, thereby greatly shortening the time needed to complete the aberrant fusion.

If it weren't for the ferocious attacks of these three fifth-rank Hell Giants, which caused the two dark dragon avatars' states to end prematurely, Su Hao could have given them an even bigger surprise.

Even so, this was enough to make their faces change dramatically.

"Use the secret technique!"

The Number One Hell Giant roared, knowing it was time to fight for his life!
