The club fell, causing the stone room to shake. It landed on the giant's body with a dull thud. The giant let out a roar and took a few steps back.
Everyone around was shocked.
This was the attack of three peak Zephyr Realm experts. It was powerful and terrifying. But the three of them together couldn't kill the ancient giant, only slightly injuring it.
"Roar!"
The giant roared. Its voice was like thunder, shaking people's souls. Many people covered their ears and fell to the ground. This was a terrifying existence. Its strength was strong and its defense was also shocking.
"Peng." "Peng."
The three of them exchanged a glance and made their moves successively, striking out one powerful attack after another. The entire second floor was trembling, Origin Energy surging ceaselessly like landslides and tsunamis.
Zi Chen hid in the distance and watched this scene in shock. The ancient giant was still very powerful. Every attack made the ground tremble. The terrifying energy filled the second floor.
At the same time, he didn't let his guard down. When he was breaking the matrix, Ma Yanqing wanted to kill him several times. The last time, she even guided the energy in the matrix to charge at him.
If it wasn't for Elder Hiroshi's timely warning, he would have died.
"Old thing." Zi Chen cursed in his heart.
Ma Yanqing, on the other hand, was looking at Zi Chen with a provocative gaze.
The giant was very strong. The more he fought, the braver he became. Every step he took made the ground tremble. His violent aura surged. His every attack was terrifying. Ordinary Zephyr Realm experts couldn't even take one attack.
The three Zephyr Realm experts didn't want to be outdone. They kept using their killing moves. Brilliant light surged. Boundless energy filled the surroundings. More people retreated in shock. The aftermath of the energy here was enough to kill them.
More and more wounds appeared on the giant's body. The three of them were very strong, but it was obviously impossible to kill it in a short time.
Moreover, as the wounds on his body worsened, the giant became more violent. Every attack carried the sound of wind and thunder.
"Finish the battle quickly."
Seeing that the battle was going to drag on indefinitely, the Liu Clan expert suddenly spoke.
"Okay." Liu Mingyong nodded. His aura changed again. His eyes were cold and emotionless. He shouted, "Step back."
Wang Zhenwei and Qi Qingqiu immediately retreated. Without the slightest hesitation, they unleashed an attack that repelled the giant and left the battle.
Then, black light surged in Liu Mingyong's hand. It was like a demonic aura lingering around it. A ferocious wolf fang weapon appeared, exuding a powerful aura.
"Pill Weapon."
Everyone exclaimed in surprise. Even some of the Sect Leaders were shaken by what they saw.
This was the work that the Liu family was most satisfied with in the past thousand years. It was very powerful. Back then, Liu Mingyong had used the mace to force back the Martial Ancestor.
Zi Chen's eyes blazed. It was this spiked club that had given him the idea of obtaining a Pill Weapon.
If he had such a Dan Weapon, which Yu Kong expert would be able to hunt him down? Whenever he met them, he would beat them to death.
"Roar!"
As soon as the Pill Weapon appeared, the giant seemed to sense danger. It let out a low roar, and its crimson eyes became even crazier, as if it had lost all reason.
Amidst the trembling sounds, he rushed towards Liu Mingyong. With a stomp of his large foot, heaven and earth trembled. A tyrannical aura circulated as he unleashed a crazy attack.
"Die!"
Liu Mingyong took a step forward with the Wolf Fang Weapon in his hand. The Wolf Fang Mace in his hand flickered with black light as he ruthlessly smashed it forward. Black light scattered, as if a black dragon was born. A tyrannical aura surged, tearing the space apart as a powerful aura erupted.
"Bang!"
The powerful attack landed on the giant's body. The crisp sound of bones breaking instantly rang out, and a large amount of blood splattered. A surge of energy flooded the second floor, and such a huge force caused the giant to retreat continuously. It let out a roar.
"Rumble!"
The terrifying energy spread, and the second floor began to shake violently. Cracks appeared on the walls, spreading like a spider web. But then, rays of light appeared, dispersing that huge force. The cracks slowly disappeared.
The entire historical remnant was a grand formation. At this moment, the formation had been activated.
The ancient giant coughed up large mouthfuls of blood. Its chest had caved in, and its hands were deformed. Its crimson eyes were filled with madness. It had completely lost all reason.
"ROAR!"
It let out another roar and charged at Liu Mingyong, unleashing its most powerful attack. Tyrannical energy swept forward like a stormy sea. At the same time, the mace in Liu Mingyong's hand was raised once more. A pitch-black light appeared, and he ruthlessly struck out.
"Pu." "Peng."
Two loud sounds rang out. Under the mace, a black dragon appeared. Its aura was terrifying, and it smashed the giant's head in an instant. Blood splattered everywhere, and the giant collapsed to the ground, its life force fading away.
A one-hit kill.
Liu Mingyong's mace almost slipped out of his hand. The web between his thumb and forefinger was split, and traces of blood flowed out. He retreated seven or eight steps, coughing up large mouthfuls of blood. His face was deathly pale. The giant's final attack was extremely terrifying. If he didn't have a pill weapon, the one to die would definitely be him.
Everyone's expression changed. Even Liu Mingyong who possessed a pill weapon was injured. This ancient giant's strength really couldn't be underestimated.
Everyone's hearts seemed to be covered by a layer of shadow. The second floor already had such a terrifying giant. Then what about the next floor?
"Continue breaking the formation."
The Ancestral Master level expert furrowed his brows, but he remained calm.
Zi Chen and Ma Yanqing continued to break the formations. The latter's eyes flickered coldly. She was warning them.
This time, Zi Chen was much more cautious. He stayed far away from the formations and only commanded from a distance.
Liu Mingyong was injured, so he temporarily retreated.
"Three meters to the left, release a beam of energy. Two meters to the right, don't explode."
Zi Chen commanded from a distance. He didn't know anything about formations, so he couldn't use them to counterattack. The only thing he could do was dodge.
Elder Mo could, but he couldn't do it himself. He had to tell Zi Chen. If Zi Chen told the two of them, they would definitely be on guard.
"Rumble."
Rumbling sounds rang out as one formation after another was broken. The two of them were extremely fast, displaying the style of grandmasters.
"As expected of grandmasters. Their formation breaking speed is actually so fast."
"It seems the formations are about to be broken. It's hard to imagine that such a small place would have so many grand formations."
The two of them had already broken through dozens of formations consecutively. During this period, Ma Yanqing had wanted to do something else several times, but the two of them were standing in front of Zi Chen. Dozens of formations were broken, but the passageway to the third level still did not appear. Everyone was shocked.
The more formations there were, the harder it was to break through. That filled everyone with anticipation. If the second floor already had a spirit weapon, then what would the third floor have? A pill weapon?
Quite a few people's eyes were already blazing with desire.
"Bang." "Bang."
The formations exploded, and energy surged. After another dozen formations had been broken, the passage to the third floor finally appeared in front of them.
"It's open, it's open!"
Everyone cried out and rushed forward. They were extremely excited, as if they had already seen a pill weapon.
When the passageway appeared, Ma Yanqing swept a cold glance at Zi Chen, then turned and entered the passageway. Qi Qingqiu and Wang Zhenwei also entered, followed by Zi Chen.
After the three of them, the others entered one after another. They were all very anxious.
The third floor wasn't like the stone rooms on the second floor. It was spacious, like an empty space. There were no stone rooms at all.
Walking through the passage, they felt a chilling killing intent that made their hearts tremble.
"How can this be?" Ma Yanqing was the first to enter. Seeing all this, her expression changed instantly.
Qi Qingqiu and Wang Zhenwei followed closely. When they saw the third floor, they were also stunned. They looked ahead in confusion.
Zi Chen quickly appeared. As he looked, he saw stone statues. They were all emitting chilling killing intent. They were lined up neatly, like a well-trained army that had been baptized by the flames of war. The killing intent surging around them made people's hearts tremble.
But other than that, there was nothing else.
The entire third floor was filled with stone statues. Row after row, pairs after pairs, countless of them.
"Why is it like this?"
Looking at these stone statues, Ma Yanqing's face was filled with disbelief. She was very shocked, but more than that, there was a pained expression in her eyes.
It was as if her most precious thing had been stolen away.
"There are so many stone statues here. They don't look ordinary."
"Other than stone statues, there's nothing else. Why is it like this?"
"What about pill weapons? Even if there aren't any pill weapons, spiritual weapons would be fine. Why are there so many useless stone statues?"
Everyone came in one after another. After seeing all this, they all exclaimed in disappointment.
"These stone statues are strange." Only the master level cultivators frowned. They could tell that these stone statues weren't simple.
"Ah, damn it! Why is it like this?" Just then, Ma Yanqing let out a hysterical roar. Her eyes were filled with unwillingness.
"Master, what's going on? Is there something wrong with these stone statues?" Someone asked in the air.
"Stone statues! How are these stone statues? These are huge treasures!" Ma Yanqing lost control of her emotions.
"Treasures?" Everyone was startled. No matter how they looked, they were just stone statues. What did they have to do with treasures?
Many people looked towards Zi Chen. But the latter was also startled. Clearly, he didn't know what the stone statues had to do with treasures.
"Little master, are these stone statues really treasures?" Someone asked. Obviously, they thought that Zi Chen was easier to talk to than Ma Yanqing.
"This …" Zi Chen was startled. He was also asking Old Mo. The latter hadn't told him yet.
"He doesn't know shit."
Ma Yanqing sneered. She still looked pained. "This is the biggest treasure I've found so far. But unfortunately, no one can take it away without mastering the Soul Lock."
"Soul Lock?" Everyone was startled. Obviously, they didn't know what it was.
"Yes, this is a very powerful formation with incredible power. It can seal the Divine Soul of an expert and petrify him, as if he has fallen into a deep sleep. He is immortal and indestructible." Ma Yanqin said. She was still very excited.
"What? It can seal the soul? You mean, these stone statues are all made of living people?" At this moment, even the master level cultivators couldn't stay calm.
If these stone statues were all experts when they were alive, then they could take these stone statues away and use them as a foundation.
And if every one of them was an expert, then how many experts were there in front of them? There were hundreds or thousands of them.
