Fairy, please step aside, I've taken a liking to your man.
Chapter 257 The Kingdom of Giants?
With an unusually cold and aloof expression, Zhang Tong Zhenjun flicked his hand, releasing one fiery lotus after another.
Wanfeng Zhenjun's flying sword transformed into a dragon, charging towards the front of the formation.
The intervention of the two True Lords made the already panicked Indian army even more chaotic.
The leader of the Indian Kingdom was killed on the spot by Zhang Tong Zhenjun in a single encounter.
"Explode it!"
An Indian cultivator suddenly rushed to the front of the two sides and detonated the golden core within his body. Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch would not dare to directly confront such an explosion and could only activate a defensive magic weapon.
Seeing that they had no way out, the other Indian cultivators rushed to the front lines and detonated their golden cores.
The entire stone chamber trembled violently at that moment, and the Xuan Yuan Empire's forces also suffered losses.
Shen Bai stood in the corner of the room, not getting involved in the conflict, but concentrating on exploring the secrets of the room's array.
Although he was not afraid of the array's blockade, it would be best if he could keep his trump cards hidden.
The stone walls of this room are all made of spirit-sealing stones. When divine sense and magical power land on them, they immediately lose their effect and cannot detect the arrays engraved inside the spirit-sealing stones at all.
Shen Bai hesitated for a moment, then gathered three-tenths of his power and unleashed a powerful attack, but the Spirit-Sealing Stone showed no reaction.
Undeterred, he gathered five more points of power and unleashed another blast, finally chipping a shard from the spirit-sealing stone in front of him.
"it works!"
Shen Bai was overjoyed, but immediately became discouraged.
"Why did you stop?"
At some point, the Ninth Prince appeared beside Shen Bai. He looked at the crack that Shen Bai had blasted open in the wall and showed delight.
"There's not enough time!"
Shen Bai sighed and said, "I blasted out a crack with all my might. It would probably take a Nascent Soul stage body cultivator half a day to completely blast a way out. And this space is getting smaller and smaller. There's no time to spare."
The Ninth Prince also sighed: "No wonder this planet is dominated by body cultivators. It takes a Nascent Soul stage body cultivator to break through a single wall. We used to focus too much on cultivating magical power and neglected the cultivation of the body."
Shen Bai shook his head and said, "Different planetary environments naturally have different focuses."
The two fell silent, and the great battle behind them was nearing its end.
Without a Nascent Soul True Monarch to oversee the situation, the Indian Empire had already suffered heavy losses during its previous explorations. Now, in this great battle, it was already at a disadvantage from the start. Even if it detonated its Golden Core, it would be futile.
In no time, all the Indian monks were slaughtered.
The wall, which was slowly squeezing inward, stopped moving at that moment.
Two portals suddenly appeared on the wall.
One direction leads from where we came, and the other leads forward.
Zhang Tong Zhenjun waved his hand to collect all the storage rings of the Indian cultivators, then looked at Wan Feng Zhenjun: "There are some dangers here. Why don't you escort His Highness the Ninth Prince back?"
"No! Let's continue!"
The Ninth Prince waved his hand and said, "Shen Bai has already discovered that the spirit-sealing stones here can be broken with pure physical strength, so this place is not unsolvable. Let's continue."
True Lord Zhang Tong looked at True Lord Wan Feng. True Lord Wan Feng walked to the wall and punched it with all his might. The wall immediately cracked open with a fissure the size of an infant's fist. He nodded to True Lord Zhang Tong with relief.
The protector is mostly unable to influence the princes' and princesses' decisions; this place may seem dangerous, but it is still within his control.
Zhang Tong Zhenjun had no choice but to tell everyone to restore their magical power as soon as possible.
Half an hour later, the group continued their journey, and as soon as they entered a room, they saw the monks from the Kingdom of Xisai resting on the ground opposite them.
Without saying a word, the two sides started fighting.
Now, cultivators from all countries should know that the great array within this ruin is for raising Gu poison.
Either fight alongside other nations until the very end and become the Gu King, or withdraw from the exploration.
The original agreement to explore together was a joke in the face of this massive formation.
Although the spirit-sealing stone can be destroyed, there is simply not enough time within the formation for both sides to break through a passage that allows everyone to escape.
Half an hour later, the entire Kingdom of Xisai was destroyed.
After a short rest, we continued our journey.
Maojing Kingdom, Dongdao Island, Aojia Kingdom, Luota Kingdom...
The cultivators of the Xuan Yuan Empire had become numb, only knowing to mechanically kill their way through.
The Ninth Prince, who was originally full of enthusiasm, has lost his spirit. His anticipated journey of exploration has turned into a journey of slaughter.
This made him very depressed.
Shen Bai, meanwhile, continued to fiddle around, searching for flaws in the formation.
After passing through more than a dozen rooms, the group finally arrived at a huge space.
The team of 100 has now dwindled to just over 60.
"Wow—is this really the land of giants?"
A look of surprise lit up the Ninth Prince's eyes.
The vast space resembled a grand Taoist temple.
In the due north position of the space, a giant statue sat cross-legged, and it was already a hundred feet tall just sitting there.
Below the Taoist statue, there are hundreds of stone statues sitting cross-legged facing the Taoist statue, each of which is seventy or eighty feet tall.
In addition, there are stone statues, each eighty or ninety feet tall, standing on all four sides of the space.
Holding lanterns and a ruyi scepter, scattering flowers and supporting a magnificent canopy.
There were also flying fairies, and auspicious cranes and beasts appeared on the dome.
All the figures were enormous, making one feel as if they were in a land of giants.
"Is this a dojo?"
Zhang Tong Zhenjun spread his divine sense and quickly scanned the entire space, only to find it completely empty and devoid of any unusual features.
"I suspect the secret lies in these stone statues."
Wanfeng Zhenjun's cultivation was higher. He looked at the leading giant statue and pondered, "Throughout the entire ruins, all we can see are these puppet statues. If all else fails, we can just violently destroy all of them."
Zhang Tongzhenjun nodded, and was about to take action when Shen Bai suddenly stepped forward: "No need to destroy it, I have already found the key to these puppets."
Everyone stared in astonishment at Shen Bai, only to see him flash by and quickly rush to the front of the leading giant statue.
Sensing an intrusion, the colossus suddenly stood up, its two stone fists whipping up a gust of wind as it slammed towards Shen Bai.
Shen Bai suddenly accelerated, appearing behind the giant statue in an instant. He placed a palm on the statue's back, bringing the statue's imposing figure to an abrupt halt.
After subduing one of the stone statues, Shen Bai followed the same procedure, and in a short while, he had taken all the stone statues in the entire space into his possession.
"sharp!"
The Ninth Prince exclaimed in surprise, "How did you find their control core?"
"It's not a big deal. We've been influenced by our habitual thinking and have been treating these puppets the way we do things on Earth."
In fact, if we put ourselves in the shoes of a giant, we can see that these puppets are actually meant for sect disciples to use for cultivation, not for fighting enemies.
They are more accustomed to physical confrontations; in terms of speed, they are far inferior. We are also smaller in stature, so with careful attention, we can avoid direct confrontations.
After Shen Bai explained briefly, everyone understood.
Previously, whenever people met, they only thought about destruction, without having time to think about what these stone statues were for.
Now that Shen Baiyi has reminded me, I no longer find these stone statues dangerous when I look at them again.
The Ninth Prince asked again.
"I guess as long as you don't stay in one room for more than a breath, it'll be fine."
Shen Bai said, "The main reason we triggered these formations is because there were many of us, so we inevitably stayed in the rooms for too long. If we were just trying to pass the level alone, we wouldn't have triggered those formations at all. Also, there should have been some stone statues in those rooms, but we don't know where they went."
The spirit-sealing stone wall is troublesome for us, but for these giants, it should be easily broken. I even suspect that the real way to break these venom-breeding formations is through brute force.
"That simple?"
The Ninth Prince was taken aback. He looked at True Monarch Wanfeng, whose old face was slightly red, but fortunately, his white beard prevented others from seeing it. He pondered for a moment and said, "That should be the case."
The chubby boy exclaimed with surprise and admiration, "Shen Bai, you're amazing!"
Shen Bai chuckled: "Praising me won't get you a stone statue. Take all of these back and give them to the Sixth Princess to guard her residence."
The chubby boy gave a sly smile: "Hehe, is this a token of our love?"
Shen Bai didn't respond; he wouldn't say anything recklessly in front of so many people.
The stone statues were all put away, and the entire space became empty. Just as Zhang Tong Zhenjun was searching for the next exit, a phantom suddenly appeared in the sky above the space.
"Dragon Elephant Sect disciples, heed my command! The orcs are attacking! Respond immediately without delay!"
The figure within the illusory image was dressed in gray cloth, with bulging muscles, a square face, and a wide mouth, looking extremely imposing.
After the phantom made its announcement three times, it disappeared into the sky.
"Is the language here the same as ours?"
A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of True Monarch Zhang Tong and True Monarch Wan Feng. If their languages were the same, then their written languages would also be very likely the same. Could it be that the humans here and the humans on Earth share the same origin?
"Dragon Elephant Sect disciples, listen to my command! The Inner Sect Grand Competition will be held at 3:45 AM. Both inner and outer sect disciples must be present. No one may be absent!"
The phantom reappeared, but this time the message it conveyed was different from before.
Everyone gradually came to their senses.
This should be a stone image of the laws passed down by this sect in the past. Many years later, after Shen Bai collected the stone statue, he did not intend to use it.
"Dragon Elephant Sect disciples, heed my command! The demonic path has invaded! Respond immediately and fight without delay!"
"Dragon Elephant Sect disciples, heed my command! The Red Prosperity Sect has arrived! Greet them immediately without fail!"
……
One decree after another appeared above everyone's heads, giving them a general understanding of the Dragon Elephant Sect.
The exact year of the Dragon Elephant Sect is uncertain. The sect's division is similar to that of the Dragon Tiger Academy, somewhat like an ancient sect, with inner and outer sects, true disciples, and Daoist disciples.
The Dragon Elephant Sect appears to be very powerful, but it has always been plagued by beast tides and demonic forces.
In just two hours, they heard about the demonic invasion five times.
The orc invasions are increasing, and they seem to be growing more dense.
Everyone listened with great interest, treating it as if they were hearing the history of a sect.
Until a decree was issued, everyone fell silent.
"Dragon Elephant Sect disciple Chen Chu, heed my command! The orcs are attacking! Respond immediately without delay!"
"If we are no match for them, we may abandon the sect!"
