The Story Never Ends

Chapter 146 - It's Not Dead

"Divine Doppelgangers"

Three specks of light came out from his body, and they turned into him. Then they began climbing the rock at the same time.

"They would surely not take this risk if it was someone else," Liam thought.

The giant saw this and became furious. It bent down and inserted its hands into the ground.

"What is it trying to do?" The disciples swallowed their saliva and gazed at it with fear.

"Run," Liam yelled as he was the first one to notice what was about to happen. He didn't even bother about Nora and jolted away.

"My God! Is this the guardian of this treasure?" Nora became speechless. She immediately jumped on the back of her mount and flew into the sky.

However, the other disciples couldn't react in time as the giant uprooted a huge piece of land from the ground and threw it towards them.

The weaker disciples without thinking took out the talisman and channeled their Qi into it. They burned and created space cracks above their heads.

"Swish..swish"

They were sucked into it and disappeared in the blink of an eye. As for the stronger ones who were in the late stages of the Golden Core Stage, they took out their spiritual artifacts and protected themselves with them. How could they leave the Secret Realm this easily and give up the treasures?

"BOOM"

The land crashed on the ground causing dust and debris to fly everywhere. Only after a few minutes did everything settle down. But the giant had already managed to make its way over here.

Some distance away from this place, Davion and his party were looking at the scenery ahead of them while hiding behind one of the pieces of land that had fallen during the collision.

"Are we still going to go over there?" Leyla asked. She didn't have any confidence in fighting that giant.

"Let's see what happens for now. I don't think they will give up," Davion replied. He was also curious about that flower that could have this giant protecting it.

"Hehe, maybe we can steal it while they are fighting," Olivia chuckled.

"You two.." Leyla shook her head and didn't say anything. She knew it wouldn't be easy as she said.

***

The giant went near the huge rock that had the flower and caressed it. Then it started clearing up the debris around it. The giant looked quite peaceful and different from how it was previously.

But this didn't last long as it felt some movement coming from the ground.

"Bang…bang"

Ten disciples radiating strong energy emerged out and threw spells one after another towards it. These spells were of various elements like fire, water, earth, wood, and many more.

When they were cast at the same time, a tone of damage was dealt to the giant as a deep hole could be seen in its stomach. However, it didn't affect it in any way. The giant roared and immediately responded with its fist.

But before it could land on them, a whirlpool of flames struck its face from the sky. So, it could only take its hand back and cover its face.

"Wew, I felt that I was about to die."

"Indeed. But our Senior Sister came at the right time and saved us."

The disciples gossiped while backing away. Afterward, they glanced at the sky and saw her mount attacking the giant. Currently, it was spitting out flames from its mouth and flapping its wings to generate strong wind energy. With the combination of both, a whirlpool of flames was generated.

"Is this the true strength of a Dark Lyeogryph?"

"Of course. After all, it is a rare dual attributed late-stage golden core demon beast."

The disciples were astonished by it since it was their first time seeing it in action.

"It seems like the only thing it can do is fight with its brute strength," Nora who was standing on her mount murmured. Even after all this beating, the giant didn't use a single spell. As a result, she was sure of it and had a rough estimation of its strength.

"Will you be watching the whole time?" She said suddenly.

"Hehe, how could I let you deal with it alone? I was only waiting for a perfect opportunity." Liam's voice was heard from her back.

She turned back and saw him floating in the air.

"You do have some ability to fly in the air," she was quite impressed with him.

"Just one of my tricks," he smiled.

She was about to say something when all of sudden her mount moved to the right and she nearly fell from her back.

"Bang"

A loud sound was heard, and she finally noticed what had happened. The giant had been uprooting more land and throwing it towards her.

"It seems to be intelligent." She had a solemn look on her face as her mount couldn't attack right now and could only dodge.

"Senior Brother, I think it's time for you to show your hands," she suggested.

"As you say," he disappeared from his spot and reached above the head of the giant. Since he was too small and the giant had been focusing on Nora, he remained unnoticed.

"Although I didn't want to do this, I had to obey her," he sighed. He believed that she would escape from here after seeing its strength. But who could have thought that she would show herself so boldly?

"Blinding Lights" He pulled out the sword strapped on his back and decided to strike with all his strength.

Even though the giant didn't have any eyeballs, the bright light still made it impossible for it to aim at Nora.

"Nice." Nora smiled and patted on the head of her mount. It instantly understood what she meant and began firing again.

"Divine Judgement" Liam would surely not miss this opportunity and used the secret art of his spiritual sword.

A phantom of a huge sword appeared behind him but it was impossible to see it clearly due to how bright it was. He then swung his sword vertically and the phantom sword dived straight down.

The head of the giant was pierced as it entered deep into its body. Only after reaching the neck, did it stop thrusting. But it was not over yet as it exploded thereafter.

"BAM"

Half of the head turned into dust and the giant ultimately fell on its knees.

Seeing this, Liam said, "Junior Sister, it appears like its head is its weak point. Maybe we should try bursting it."

Nora nodded and notified the other disciples, "All of you try attacking its head. We got this."

Without waiting for them to respond, she took out a bow and some arrows from her spirit ring and fired them. The arrows struck the head of the giant, and ice began to form around it. Then steadily they began to spread around. Similarly, the other disciples also followed.

Half an hour later, the giant stood there as it is and didn't move the whole duration. The remaining head had long since turned into dust and everyone thought that it had died.

Davion and his party were surprised that it ended so early.

"Did it really fall so easily?" Leyla asked.

"Looks like so." Disappointment could be heard from Olivia's voice. Although she was a devil from the Devil World, it was her first time seeing a giant.

Davion also felt the same but suddenly he sensed something from the giant with his Mind-Eye.

"It's not over yet," he said while focusing on the giant.

***

"Senior Sister, we did it." The disciples were excited.

"Indeed. This giant only looked tough," Nora scoffed.

"Wew, it seems like I was overthinking too much," Liam caught his breath and put down his sword. He then ordered the disciples, "Go and bring back the flower."

They were about to go when the body of the giant suddenly broke apart and turned to dust.

"This…" They became alerted and backed away in response.

"Don't tell me…" Liam felt that something was wrong here.

"Damn, that's why I didn't want to offend it." He cursed. This was also the reason he stopped his doppelganger from taking away the flower in fear of having a death feud with it earlier.

The disciples also had similar considerations. When they were lost in their thoughts, a hoarse voice abruptly sounded.

"Who are you all?"

However, they didn't manage to understand it as it was a completely foreign language.

The disciples gazed at each other and shook their heads. Liam was already shaking with fear and was ready to run if something happened. But the same didn't go for Nora.

She bravely proceeded a few steps forward and yelled, "Come out and don't hide yourselves."

The moment she said this, a green-colored cloud of smoke rose from the place where the giant had fallen. The smoke congealed and formed a male which was at least 30 feet tall.

"The Giant" She recognized him instantly as the face seemed quite similar.
