“Let’s go!” Yang Kai responded and stretched out his hand to tease Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao immediately climbed up his arm. It was hard to imagine that such a little brat could actually transform into a giant like Grand Mountain and fight with Great Demon God.
In the previous battle, Grand Mountain's body had been broken twice. Although his life was no longer in danger, like many Great Emperors, he still needed to rest and recuperate.
“He left quite freely,” Duan Hongchen laughed.
“It’s good that he’s gone,” Great Emperor Flower Shadow let out a sigh of relief and glanced at Zhan Wuhen as he spoke.
On the other side, Zhan Wuhen’s cold eyes stared in the direction Wu Kuang had left, a faint trace of killing intent still present.
During the battle in the Star Fragments Sea, four Great Emperors had died at Wu Kuang’s hands, and one of them was Great Emperor Cyan Lotus, Zhan Wuhen’s best friend. Because of this, Zhan Wuhen hated Wu Kuang to the bone and hated the Heaven Devourer Battle Law even more.
Among the current Great Emperors, no one hated Wu Kuang more than Zhan Wuhen.
If possible, he didn’t mind fighting Wu Kuang to the death to avenge his dead friend.
It was just that when the Great Demon God had wreaked havoc, all of the Star Boundary’s power had been condensed into a single rope, so Zhan Wuhen had no choice but to let go of his personal grudge. Now, it was even more obvious that the Star Boundary couldn’t withstand any more torment. Moreover, Wu Kuang had swallowed Mo Sheng, so with Zhan Wuhen’s current strength, there was nothing he could do to him.
“Good, good, good, good.” Duan Hongchen nodded repeatedly. These past few years of coexisting with Wu Kuang’s as dual souls had caused him to become quite depressed. Now that Wu Kuang also had a body of his own, Duan Hongchen could be considered to have completely escaped from him.
The only thing that made him unhappy was that Wu Kuang had used his body to perform the Heaven Devourer Battle Law in the previous battle and had swallowed Great Demon God’s essence. Although this had brought him many benefits, it had also left him with some hidden dangers that were both beneficial and detrimental.
“I don’t know when we’ll meet again,” Yang Kai teased Xiao Xiao as he spoke.
Perhaps… they wouldn’t have a chance to meet again? The Outer Universe was vast and boundless. Even if he were to one day break free from the shackles of the Inner Universe and go to the Outer Universe, what were the chances of them meeting again?
Saying so, Yang Kai suddenly frowned and looked up into the sky.
At this moment, everyone also noticed something and when they looked up, they saw a black dot rapidly falling from the sky, carrying a fierce aura.
The black dot rapidly expanded in front of everyone’s eyes and soon became a giant several hundred zhang tall.
Who else could it be but Wu Kuang who had just left?
Yang Kai placed Xiao Xiao on his shoulder and laughed, “Why did you come back? Did you forget something?”
Wu Kuang’s expression was a bit strange at this moment, but it was even more solemn as he said, “You’d best come with me, I’m afraid the Star Boundary is in great trouble.”
“What do you mean?” Zhan Wuhen’s face sank.
“You’ll know once you follow me,” Wu Kuang didn’t say anything else, turning around and flying away from the Inner Universe.
Everyone looked at each other and quickly gathered their Divine Senses before Yang Kai shouted, “Let’s go!”
Saying so, he was the first to follow.
“Be careful of a trap!” Zhan Wuhen sent a sound transmission, obviously still somewhat worried about Wu Kuang’s character, but he still followed.
A group of a dozen or so figures marched outside of the Universe World.
The higher they went, the more invisible resistance they felt, as if a mountain was pressing down on their shoulders, threatening to push them back.
“It’s much weaker,” Mo Huang couldn’t help sighing, “Is this also the result of the World Laws being destroyed?”
“It should be,” Zhan Wuhen nodded.
All the Great Emperors had roamed the Star Boundary for many years, so how could they not have tried to explore the world outside of the Universe World? Not only had they tried, but they had also tried more than once.
This kind of invisible resistance was something they were all too familiar with. Every time they were about to leave the Star Boundary, they would encounter it, but this time was different, the resistance was clearly much weaker.
This resistance was undoubtedly the shackles of the world. Those who were not strong enough would not be able to escape from this shackle.
The Great Emperors all had this ability, but if they jumped out of the Star Boundary, they would lose the support of the world, and the Great Emperors would no longer be Great Emperors. The place outside of the Universe World was extremely dangerous, and they would not be able to last long before returning.
Therefore, before the Great Demon God, the Great Emperors knew nothing about the Outer Universe.
In less than a dozen breaths of time, everyone felt the invisible pressure on their bodies disappear, and at the same time, their connection with the Star Boundary became extremely weak.
At this moment, a thunderous sound rang out, causing everyone’s expressions to change.
In the next moment, a violent gust of wind blew towards them, so strong that even the Great Emperors couldn’t maintain their balance and were blown away.
After a long time, the violent wind finally calmed down and everyone couldn’t help exchanging glances, none of them knowing what was happening.
Wu Kuang led the way, not bothering to explain anything.
After a moment, Wu Kuang suddenly shouted, “Be careful!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful suction force appeared in front of them, pulling everyone towards it. The Great Emperor’s expression immediately became brilliant. Although they were unable to use the World Strength and without the Star Boundary’s support, they still had their own foundation, so what kind of suction force was it that made them unable to escape?
Fortunately, this suction force was just like the violent wind from before. It came and went quickly, and after a moment it stopped.
However, before they could calm down, the muffled sound of thunder rang out again, followed by a strong gust of wind.
Yang Kai’s expression became strange, feeling like this scene was somewhat familiar…
“Hehe, we’ve arrived,” Wu Kuang suddenly let out a low laugh before stepping aside to reveal the scene in front of him.
Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded and Yang Kai was stunned!
In the void in front of him, an incomparably huge figure lay there, like a continuous mountain range. It was unknown how long it was, but Wu Kuang’s massive body, which was now several hundred zhang tall, was still as laughable as a child in front of this figure.
This was a terrifying giant.
In front of everyone’s eyes, the giant breathed and exhaled. As he breathed, the wind transformed into a wind blade from his mouth and nose, sweeping across a million kilometers of space. When he breathed, everything within a million kilometers was affected.
The sound of thunder was actually the giant’s snoring.
From the giant’s body, an incredible aura could be felt, so powerful that even the Great Emperors felt despair, one that was countless times stronger than the Great Demon God’s most powerful aura, spread out.
In front of this aura, even the two Dragon Clan Elders felt like insects.
“What is this…” Great Emperor Flower Shadow couldn’t help gulping as her pretty face paled.
Even when facing the Great Demon God, she had never felt so powerless before, but this giant lying in front of her could easily crush her with a single finger.
Zhan Wuhen’s expression was also extremely solemn, while the other Great Emperors expressions weren’t any better.
No matter what kind of existence this sleeping giant was, the current Star Boundary could no longer withstand such torture, and with him sleeping so close to the Star Boundary, everyone even suspected that if his breathing was any stronger, the Star Boundary would be blown away.
Only Yang Kai didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He had never expected to see this guy again so soon.
It hadn’t been long since he last saw this guy, and Yang Kai remembered that after saying goodbye to him, he had run off into the distance. Why was he here?
“Heaven Punishment descendant, you should recognize him, right?” Wu Kuang turned to Zhang Ruoxi and chuckled.
Everyone quickly turned to look at her, and Zhan Wuhen frowned, “Young Lady Ruoxi, what exactly is this?” Before witnessing it with his own eyes, Zhan Wuhen had never thought that such a massive creature existed in this world.
“Giant Spirit!” Zhang Ruoxi’s voice was hoarse as she smiled bitterly, “The Star Boundary is really in trouble this time.”
“What do you mean?” Zhan Wuhen frowned and lowered his voice, afraid that his words would wake the Giant Spirit.
Zhang Ruoxi said, “In the Outer Universe, the Giant Spirit Race is a very special race. They are born with unparalleled strength and stand at the peak of the entire Outer Universe. Other than a few similarly powerful existences, no one is their opponent.”
“How about Great Demon God?”
Zhang Ruoxi smiled bitterly, “Even when he was a peak Great Demon God, if the Giant Spirit wanted to kill him, it would only take one palm.”
Hearing this, Zhan Wuhen’s face sank. The information Zhang Ruoxi knew was undoubtedly from Heaven Punishment's memories. Since this Giant Spirit was so powerful, how could the Star Boundary’s side be its opponent? Just a resurrected Great Demon God had nearly destroyed the Star Boundary, and at that time, the Great Demon God had not even reached the peak.
This Giant Spirit was able to kill a peak Great Demon God with a single palm strike, so its strength had far exceeded everyone’s imagination.
“Should we strike first to gain the upper hand?” Mo Huang’s face was filled with eagerness. The giant in front of him was still in a deep sleep, if everyone were to launch a sneak attack, they might have a chance.
“Please don’t!” Zhang Ruoxi quickly tried to stop him, “Although the Giant Spirit Race is powerful, they are naturally kind, and under normal circumstances, they don’t fight with others. Moreover, although they are powerful, here… there seems to be some kind of problem, they have always been relatively simple.” Saying so, Zhang Ruoxi point to her head.
“Then why did he come to my Star Boundary?” Zhan Wuhen was puzzled.
Zhang Ruoxi said, “The Giant Spirit Race has no fixed home and has spent their entire lives wandering the Outer Universe, searching for their own food. I’m afraid he came here to find food.”
“What do they want to eat?”
“The dead Universe World.”
“The dead Universe World?” Zhan Wuhen raised his brow.
“That’s right, they have a very special innate Divine Ability. Even from far away, they can smell the aura of death in this world. Whenever this happens, they will rush over and quietly wait for the world to die before eating it.”
