Chapter 25

Even so, when six giants, each a hundred meters tall, ran across the land, the sheer power and terror of the sight were unimaginable.

Moreover, his body was covered in crisscrossed wounds—not like the gaping cuts caused by swords, but as if some razor-sharp blade had sliced deeply, creating thin, peculiar-shaped fissures. Blood oozed out, staining his entire body in a crimson hue.

So, this Sin’lorak—if translated into something understandable—essentially means the Great Big Bird?? Which is actually Hakkar himself. This winged serpent also qualifies as a kind of big bird. Considering his field of offspring, the name doesn’t seem entirely undeserved.

Additionally, when the patrolling navy recognized the straw-hat emblem on this pirate ship, they immediately contacted the nearby naval base to dispatch more warships to the area.

Sweeping the top three spots? This was an unprecedented feat in the 46 editions of the Hua Zhang Literary Gathering. Was it even possible?

Meanwhile, the piercing, urgent alarm had already brought Eagle Falcon and Zhang Zhenting, along with others, up to the base walls.

“How is Madam Xuan?” Dai Xue asked as she entered the Yan family’s bedroom and saw Xuan Shao sitting by the bedside.

A’Li had something urgent to report to the Sanctuary Lord. Being an astute person, the Lord would have understood the urgency of A’Li’s message just by looking at his injuries.

Li Xuan paid no attention to these things. What he cared about most was the evaluation and rewards for this mission.

During their journey, both of them witnessed what was happening in the skies. Kong Lei dismissed it without concern, but Chen Yuting was deeply impressed by Liu Haoyu’s methods, which heightened her reverence for him.

With Babu’s death, Yi Xingchen had formed an irreconcilable enmity with Babu’s general father. Although Yi Xingchen didn’t care how the general might try to retaliate, since he had brought along numerous Xinghua Kingdom guards and civilians, he felt obligated to ensure their safety.

Although the Zhe family’s army didn’t have a large number of troops, their encampments showcased a high level of discipline and expertise. Every bit of earthwork was done meticulously, with no shortcuts or sloppiness. The sentries outside the camp patrolled diligently, ensuring the area was tightly secured.

Not quite understanding the situation, Mo Jian grabbed a nearby player watching the scene and asked about his confusion.

The frontline players definitely wouldn’t go picking up items—they had to maintain the defensive line and prevent the ghost-faced death soldiers from slipping through the gaps to attack the players behind them. Picking up those packages could cause a breach in the line.

With the price comparison provided by “Qiegao,” the players in the Jiangshan Rujiu guild naturally realized that Mo Jian’s offer was already very fair. Since they were all part of the same community, he was willing to offer a discount. If it had been outsiders, they likely wouldn’t have received such a deal.

The man took the transparent fish off the hook, then brought it directly to his mouth, biting into it a few times and eating it whole.

“Did you see that? This is the true power of the Old Ghost. He inherited the Grand Reincarnation Technique of Three Thousand Celestial Arts and later fused it into his swordsmanship through supreme divine abilities, transforming himself into reincarnation itself. That’s why the Old Ghost is also known as the Reincarnation Master!” Chi Lian explained.

“With so many deities in the Divine Realm, why hasn’t a single one taken action?” At this moment, the dean humbly posed the question as a junior.

Yang Dong and Ye Lingshuan were about to enter the underground palace to retrieve the Divine Tree when Yin Dongzhu approached from afar. She had been waiting by Lanhai Lake but heard the commotion from the battle—so loud that even she could hear it. Realizing Yang Dong must have encountered trouble retrieving the tree, she hurried over.

The Siran soldiers occupying the imperial palace still warily watched the darkness beyond the palace walls, sensing the thick hostility hidden within the shadows.

Now, however, as the spiritual energy surged like the tides and traces of the elusive Heavenly Dao became faintly visible, the ancestor, whose comprehension of the Dao was profound, must have grown even more formidable. Their cultivation level likely reached a terrifying height.

At this time, all the warriors and spirit beasts in the area were discussing the thirteen titled experts. Among them, those familiar with these experts shared details about their deeds and basic information with their companions.

Back when it was made, it served no apparent purpose, so Su Yan stuffed it into a spatial artifact. She only remembered it in a moment of desperation.

Regarding Sheng Xia’s relationship with He Jianjun, Sheng Baoguo no longer took a bluntly disapproving stance. Instead, he carefully considered it. He Jianjun was capable, had an impressive presence, and most importantly, he treated Sheng Xia exceptionally well. His heart was wholly devoted to her.

From the faint mist exhaled, one could almost see the startled reactions of two generals atop the city wall as they caught sight of the object. They then hurriedly descended from the wall.

The boy wandered around for a while and actually discovered something, though it wasn’t a rabbit—it was a small, thin garter snake.

If Su Yan and the others were to report that “Han Yi is a member of the insect race” to the authorities, the exit would become a trap, with humans lying in wait for it to fall into their hands. However, it had no choice but to leave. Acting quickly might allow it to take advantage of the time gap needed for humans to relay this information and escape before the trap was fully set.

Chang Li took Xiao Dinglan back to the secluded place where the master and disciple lived, sealing off the bamboo grove so he could forever slumber in that otherworldly haven. Then, he shut himself away in the Linxian Temple, vowing not to emerge unless it concerned matters of life and death for the world.
