Chapter 983 - 1067: The Giantâs Ferocity
There are quite a few cultivators in the East, but the only woman Chen Nan knows who practices magic is his enemy, Hua Xianâer.
Could this woman be her?
The world is so large, and the chances of old enemies meeting are very slim, but with the magic cultivation of this woman before him, Chen Nan couldnât help but think of Hua Xianâer immediately.
If it really is her, should I take advantage of the situation and use the giantâs hand to kill her?
Chen Nan thought to himself, stepping closer step by step.
What he needed to do now was not to make a move, but to first confirm the identity of the woman in front.
If it is her, he could either turn around and leave or take a stone and smash her to death. But if it isnât, perhaps he should consider helping to save her, since seeing a living person is very rare in this desolate Ghost Realm.
At this moment, the battle between the female mage and the giant had entered its most intense phase.
The giantâs skin was thick and flesh was rugged, and ordinary magic attacks couldnât harm it at all, while the female mage was being battered terribly.
"Boom..."
The giant punched out, shattering the magic thunder in the air, and then it casually grabbed beside it, pulling up a tree thirty or forty meters high, sweeping it towards the female mage.
The female mageâs figure flickered and disappeared into thin air.
The next moment, she appeared behind the giant, waving her magic wand, unleashing space magic, tearing the void towards the giantâs body.
"Roar..."
The giant roared, the furious soundwave deafening, forcibly closing the torn void.
"Crack..."
The giant then snapped the tree it held into two sections and threw one section from its right hand at the female mage.
The female mage screamed, hastily casting space magic to traverse the space to dodge, but this clumsy giant seemed to know where she would appear after crossing through space, tossing the other section of the tree to the right.
As a result, just as the female mage finished traversing the space, she was met with the incoming massive tree.
"Ah!"
She shrieked, her magic wand conjuring enough magic power to use it as a weapon like a martial artist, striking forward to block the giant tree.
However, the giantâs strength was beyond her imagination.
"Boom..."
The magic power on the magic wand shattered; the wand, thick as a wrist, recoiled back, smashing into her own chest, instantly breaking two of her ribs, followed swiftly by the half tree trunk that mercilessly struck her chest.
"Pfft..."
Blood stained the sky red as the female mageâs body was sent flying nearly a hundred meters.
Logically speaking, suffering such a blow, an ordinary mageâs body wouldnât be able to withstand it, yet the injuries of this female mage seemed not very severe, at least she hadnât lost her combat capability.
"Roar..."
The giant roared toward the sky, beating its chest like a giant gorilla, charging once again at the female mage.
Having learned a lesson, the female mage dared not use space magic to traverse again, only able to evade by flying through the air using the Wind Soaring Technique. Meanwhile, she looked toward the side where Chen Nan was hiding, shouting loudly, "Friend in the shadows, I am the Heavenly Maiden of the Magic Temple, could you reveal yourself and assist me? I will certainly repay you generously one day!"
She spoke in English, after all, in this Western Ghost Realm, the probability of encountering Western people was much higher than Eastern people.
Under Huo Xinyaâs intensive tutoring, Chen Nanâs English, though not great, was enough for basic communication, so naturally, he understood these words.
He leaped onto a tree branch, sneering, "Hua Xianâer, do you even know who I am, and yet you want me to save you?"
"Itâs you!"
Seeing Chen Nan, Hua Xianâerâs face changed dramatically.
She had hoped the other side would help, but now it seemed, not only would there be no help, but he most likely would take advantage of the situation.
"You scoundrel, I will kill you!"
Hua Xianâer roared, waving her magic wand intending to attack Chen Nan, for with the fusion of the previous Heavenly Maidenâs Magic Essence, not only had her cultivation grown higher, but the memories erased by Chen Nan had fully returned.
This scoundrel had not only killed her father and brother but also raped her!
Hua Xianâer now wished to tear Chen Nan into pieces, but just as she was about to charge at him, the giant pulled out another tree, sweeping it from the rear.
Blinded by anger, Hua Xianâer was too late to react when she finally realized it, getting swept away nearly a hundred meters, colliding with a towering tree that would take two people to embrace, coughing up a mouthful of blood, seriously injured.
Seeing Hua Xianâerâs bleeding lips, with her hair and clothes already in disarray, Chen Nan genuinely felt some sympathy.
But he clearly knew, with this womanâs hatred for him, if he saved her now, she would turn and chase him instead. Rather than inviting trouble, it was better to let her fend for herself.
"Hua Xianâer, youâre pitiful, so I wonât make things difficult for you today. Whether you can survive under this ancient giantâs hands depends on your fate."
Chen Nan turned and walked deeper into Aluo Mountain.
He originally intended to seize the opportunity to kill Hua Xianâer to eliminate future troubles, but facing this woman, he hesitated.
All the past grudges, ultimately he owed her more; even if those from the Desire Palace had their faults, he had killed her father and brother and ruined her honor, which were undeniable facts.
Thinking of these, Chen Nan even wanted to run back to rescue her.
But he managed to suppress such impulses, because, regardless, if he saved Hua Xianâer, she would still seek revenge, so why trouble himself?
Besides, he had more important matters to attend to in the Ghost Realm this time.
Aside from bringing Shiâerâs soul back from the depths of the Ghost Realm, he also needed to find Ghost Grass for the woman in red.
"If you die at the hands of the giant, Iâll burn some paper for you."
Chen Nan glanced back in the direction of the battle sounds, quickening his pace forward.
Having run about five miles or so, Chen Nan furrowed his brows, stopping in his tracks.
Because giant footprints appeared on the ground again!
Moreover, these footprints were even larger than those of the ancient giant from before.
The previous giant was twenty meters tall, with footprints about three meters long. However, the footprints before him now were a full five meters long, two meters longer than the previous giantâs, indicating a body much taller, at least thirty-five meters or so, and undoubtedly stronger.
Chen Nan had to be cautious; the previous twenty-meter giant was already an overwhelmingly difficult adversary. If he encountered this one over thirty meters tall, it would be impossible to contend with.
