Chapter 1186: Chapter 886: The Master of the Golden Skeleton

Dozens of times over, immortal powerhouses from various races transformed into streaks of rainbow light, assaulting their target. These beings, who had just entered immortality, failed to notice that the broken, charred skin of the Crowned Giant was just a superficial layer. As the shattered burnt layer crumbled away, what was revealed underneath was flesh with fresh, tender skin.

Su Yu, poised to join the attack, suddenly caught this subtle change. His heart shook, and he instinctively stopped in his tracks. Almost at the same moment, an enormous energy burst forth from the still body of the Crowned Giant, its right palm rising swiftly to strike out.

"Snap, snap, snap," a series of explosive sounds echoed, akin to flies and mosquitoes disintegrating upon contact with an electric swatter. In that instant, at least twenty immortal powerhouses were obliterated by the giant hand, their Undying Spirits frantically attempting to flee but were captured in a sweep of the giant palm and pulled into its grasp.

The remaining powerhouses who escaped this fate were terrified, their souls almost escaping their bodies as they scattered in frenzied flight. Only a few formidable figures, like the two great Buddha Lords of the Western Heavenly Race, the Immortal of Aztec, Su Yu, and the Golden Skeleton, had not moved at all; instead, they had stepped back, and a cautious look was evident in each of their eyes.

The Crowned Giant sitting on the throne was not killed by the black flames released from the white bone. Instead, once the charred outer skin had peeled and crumbled away, it was as if the Crowned Giant was reborn, its skin now crystalline and translucent, almost glowing with a divine radiance.

After crushing dozens of immortals, the Crowned Giant acted as if it was a trivial act, its right hand slowly reached up and then made a slight move. With a "creak," the iron chains piercing its palm disintegrated inch by inch.

The Battle Buddha Lord and the Descending Third Age Buddha Lord glanced at each other and gasped in shock. In that moment, they realized the folly of their plan and the magnitude of their loss. The black flames had not only failed to kill the Crowned Giant but had also burnt away the iron chains that bound it, which it couldn’t destroy by itself.

The Crowned Giant... had broken free.

With a gentle tug, the chains shattered, and the Crowned Giant clasped its hands, healing the holes in its palms. A look of satisfaction appeared in its eyes. With a slight movement of its feet, the chains around its ankles also broke.

"Roar—" All of a sudden, the Crowned Giant stood up, swung its arms in the void with an excited roar. The sound shook the entire palace, and amidst this roar, the already crumbling palace finally collapsed continuously with a thunderous crash.

In the midst of the excited roars, the Crowned Giant reached out for the Cross weapon and smashed it down. With a "whoosh," the weapon’s speed was indescribable; the ground split open instantly, and three leaders from the Monster Beast Clan and two patriarchs from the Sea Clan who were too slow to escape were instantly torn apart, their five immortal souls seized by the Crowned Giant’s left hand and consumed within its body.

As the Crowned Giant strode forward, stepping away from the throne, Su Yu, holding Feng’er and carrying the unconscious An Xue at his side, inadvertently noticed that when the Crowned Giant turned around, its back had been hollowed out.

Because the Crowned Giant had been seated on the throne all this while, facing them even when it stood, the assembly of powers in the palace hadn’t noticed that its back had long been hollowed out. Through this cavity, one could only see a golden spine; inside the belly behind that spine, there was utterly nothing.

As the Crowned Giant devoured the souls of five immortal powerhouses, Su Yu perceived something growing inside its formerly hollow abdomen. Meanwhile, the Crowned Giant, roaring, had already raised the Cross high and was about to smash it down upon the Battle Buddha Lord and the Descending Third Age Buddha Lord.

The surviving immortals from various races, in a sorry state, were in frantic escape, now fully aware of how naive and overambitious they were to covet the qualification of a Divine Being with their current strength.

The Battle Buddha Lord issued an angry roar, a mere gesture of his hands summoned the "Golden Rod," said to be made from the roots of the Cosmic Tree, which plummeted from the sky and heavily collided with the Cross.

The Crowned Giant, holding the Cross in one hand, deflected the "Golden Rod" with a flick, and with another smash, struck the Descending Third Age Buddha Lord.

The Descending Third Age Buddha Lord let out a muffled groan, vomiting blood as he was sent flying back. The Crowned Giant quickly pursued, thrusting the Cross through the air and piercing the Buddha Lord’s chest, nailing him to the ground.

An indescribable, absolute overpowering force swept the field. A colossal consciousness enveloped everything, locking down all that existed. It seemed as though the Crowned Giant intended to kill all present, to devour their souls and fill its own hollowed abdomen.

Seeing the Descending Third Age Buddha Lord targeted by the Cross, the Crowned Giant’s massive palm prepared to crush him to pieces, when suddenly, in the emptiness above, a blinding light burst through the darkness, and impossibly, a gigantic sun came down.

The Immortal of the Aztec finally summoned the "Blue Sea Sun" from the void, and he was about to take real action, with waves of terrifying solar storms surging forth. As the Immortal of Aztec burst out, utilizing solar energy, his power infinitely increased. In an instant, he unleashed a punch that bombarded repeatedly with thousands of times the energy, causing a horrific explosion of a light sphere with a diameter reaching hundreds of thousands of meters to explode open.

The earth-shattering explosion "boomed" and devoured everything in sight, with all energy fiercely impacting the body of the Crowned Giant.

The Battle Buddha Lord, holding the Golden Rod in both hands, showed an unprecedented solemn expression on his face. Although he hated the Immortal of Aztec to the extreme, and his head had even been smashed by the Immortal of Aztec before, at this moment, there seemed to be no hatred between them, only a common enemy. Grasping the Golden Rod, he unleashed the ultimate brute force of a fierce ape and struck the Crowned Giant’s head with a heavy blow.

The Golden Skeleton, holding the Golden Sickle, also struck the spine that supported the upper body of the Crowned Giant almost at the same instant.

The three mightiest beings joined forces in one strike, with a momentum as tremendous as a tidal wave. Su Yu could only stimulate the power of the Giant Will within him, and the phantom of six dragons with six wings emerged, barely managing to protect Feng’er and An Xue. Despite this, they were still propelled backward by the terrifying force.

"Roar—"

A heaven-shaking roar reverberated through the world, causing the entire Ancient Life Continent to seem to shake. Billions of ancient behemoths could only crouch on the ground, trembling all over, feeling the fear as if the apocalypse of the world was about to descend.

The Crowned Giant, with a pair of eyes bursting with terrifying flames, swept its gargantuan palm across the sky, grabbed the Battle Buddha Lord’s Golden Rod, and with another smash, "boomed" a thunderous sound, hitting the Golden Skeleton behind it.

From afar, Feng’er let out an alarmed cry: "Da Huang—"

Over the years, Feng’er had been together with Da Huang, and although she found him annoying on ordinary days, seeing the Golden Skeleton being blasted today made Feng’er realize that, unbeknownst to her, her feelings for Da Huang had grown very deep. Witnessing the Golden Skeleton suffer a heavy blow, she couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.

The power of the Crowned Giant was so overwhelming that with a swing of its giant palm, it sent the Golden Skeleton flying with a "clattering" sound as over two hundred Golden Bones scattered, breaking apart and turning into streaks of rainbow light that shot out.

"Master—"

In this moment, the Golden Skeleton finally felt the threat of death. As its Golden Bones scattered, it let out a mournful scream.

As the Golden Skeleton’s scream echoed, the far reaches of the void suddenly transmitted a faint sigh.

This faint sigh, barely audible yet resonating far and wide, suppressed all other sounds at the scene. Whether it was the explosion’s roar or the Crowned Giant’s bellow, none were as clear as this faint sigh.

The Crowned Giant had just clutched the Battle Buddha Lord’s Golden Rod, ready to blast him away, but after the sigh, it suddenly loosened its grip on the Golden Rod, summoned back the "Cross," and instantly retreated to the preeminent throne above. Its face showed a look of uncertainty as it looked up into the dark void, where the majestic Giant Palace had completely collapsed by now.

The Immortal of Aztec retreated, sensing an endless Darkness sweeping over from the void above, immediately eclipsing the scorched Blue Sea Sun he had summoned. A pale and delicate hand reached out from the endless darkness, looking blanched as if it had not seen sunlight for many years, devoid of any trace of blood color.

With a gentle release of the pale hand, the Golden Skeleton’s over two hundred Golden Bones, which had shot out rapidly, suddenly reversed course and flew back, gathering in the air and swiftly reassembling into the Golden Skeleton.

Recovered to its original form, the Golden Skeleton knelt down reverently and cried out, "Master... Master, please take action. If we kill this foe, we can surely seize the Divine Being Qualification... Da Huang... Da Huang... also wants to become a god—"

The pale and delicate hand quietly withdrew, and the Golden Skeleton could not help but cry out in distress, "Master, don’t go—"

"Da Huang, be silent—" At the same moment, a figure wrapped in a black robe appeared in the void above, with an icy voice devoid of any emotion coldly saying, "Da Huang, don’t you trust Master’s words anymore? The Master once said that since you haven’t refined the Golden Blood and flesh, your current realm is already your limit. Even if you obtain the Divine Being Qualification, you don’t qualify to become a true deity. Give up, Da Huang."

Da Huang seemed stunned upon hearing this, falling silent for a long while. The figure in the black robe above the void shook its head slightly and coldly said, "You’ve all caused enough trouble. Go back. Do you truly wish to anger the Master?"
