Finger Tap's appearance instantly melted the giant's tyrannical heart. The giant paused for a moment before its palm was pierced by Finger Tap, and its huge body collapsed.
This giant was still underage, so Ku Lei dared to fight it head-on. However, the next giant that appeared made him hesitate, and he immediately landed.
Ce Jiu's situation was the same as Ku Lei's. At this point, any outsider that was discovered would be attacked by the guardian giant, except for Xia Jiuyou, who had directly passed by the guardian giant without being attacked.
The Xia family originated from Progenitor Chen, which was the only explanation. As for being attacked from the beginning, that was just bad luck.
The Xia family had always been able to come and go as they pleased within Progenitor Chen's tomb, which was publicly acknowledged by the Seven Courts.
Lu Yin's group also encountered a guardian giant.
The guardian giant used scent to search for outsiders, and Silver's group was quickly discovered.
The giant club smashed down, creating a deep crater in the ground.
Silver, Ghoul, and Lu Yin dodged, but there was a furious roar behind them as the guardian giant swung its club, causing the void to distort.
It was easy for the guardian giant to destroy a planet with a single club, and its power level was terrifying. Even Lu Yin did not want to take it head-on, so he dodged once more.
The three did not notice that there was a person watching them in shock from the hair of the guardian giant that was attacking them. It was Ku Wei.
He had been sent flying by the guardian giant's club as soon as he had entered Progenitor Chen's tomb. By the time he had regained consciousness, he had discovered that he was in the hair of a guardian giant with his legs entangled.
Fortunately, he had been in the hair of the guardian giant, or else he would have definitely been discovered and smashed into meat paste.
He was glad that he had been able to escape, but there was nothing he could do. He knew that with his speed, he would be discovered the moment he left the guardian giant and crushed to death. There was no other choice.
He had already resigned himself to his fate and was waiting for Progenitor Chen's tomb to close before leaving. However, he had not expected to find Silver's group.
He now hoped that these three would be able to kill this guardian giant.
He did not know who these three were, as he had never seen Silver or Lu Yin under the black robes. However, no matter who they were, it was still an opportunity. Of course, if these three wanted to kill him, then so be it.
However, Ku Wei was disappointed. Silver's group could indeed kill the guardian giant, even if it was an adult guardian giant.
In theory, even an Enlighter with a power level in the hundreds of thousands would pay attention to an adult guardian giant. However, that was only because the guardian giants relied on their physical bodies to fight, and they didn't use any techniques. What attracted the attention of powerhouses was their bloodline, not their true power level. A powerhouse with a power level of over 300,000 could easily kill an adult guardian giant by themselves.
Silver, Corpse Ghoul, and Lu Yin were all capable of unleashing a power level of over 300,000, which was more than enough to destroy the guardian giant. However, they did not do so; they merely tore open a wound on the guardian giant's calf and bathed themselves in its blood before leaving.
With the giant's blood covering their scent, the three of them would no longer be tracked down by the guardian giants.
Ku Wei was tempted. The guardian giant howled and squatted down, covering its bloody mouth. Ku Wei also wanted to water the giant with its blood, but he did not dare to do so. It was not safe; what if he was smashed to death?
That moment of hesitation caused Ku Wei to miss his chance to leave the giant. The giant crudely rubbed some soil over the wound, and the blood stopped flowing. Ku Wei was speechless.
He felt like fate was playing a joke on him. He had finally gotten the chance to enter Progenitor Chen's tomb, but he had ended up spending his days with a giant. If word of this got out, the tribe leader would skin him alive.
Actually, Lu Yin could not be blamed. He was afraid of dying, and there was nothing he could do about it.
After getting rid of the guardian giant, the three of them flew off into the distance at an extremely fast speed.
Not long after, a giant black droplet appeared above their heads and fell without warning, smashing into Ghoul.
Silver and Lu Yin dodged and stared at Ghoul, who had been hit by the black droplet.
Ghoul was unaffected, and it growled from within the droplet as it tried to break free. However, it was useless, as its attacks could not break through the black droplet.
"Attack from the outside," Silver ordered.
Lu Yin knew that Silver was talking to him. He raised a hand, and a sickle formed from death qi appeared in his palm.
The sickle cut through the droplet, but no water flowed out. It looked like a droplet, but at the same time, it did not seem to be water.
Silver waved his hand, and there was a flash of light.
The sickle cut through the droplet as well, but it was useless.
At that moment, black droplet after black droplet fell from above and smashed into the ground.
Silver and Lu Yin continuously dodged, afraid that they would be hit like Ghoul.
In the distance, You Qin dodged several droplets, but she was finally hit by a droplet and sank into the droplet.
Ku Lei, Ce Jiu, Hui Santong, and the others were all attacked by the droplets.
Even Xie Xiaoxian and Shu Jing, who were closest to the entrance, were attacked.
"Strange, when did Progenitor Chen's tomb have such an attack?"
Xie Xiaoxian was puzzled. The Seven Courts had explored Progenitor Chen's tomb for countless years, and they had brought back many good things, such as battle techniques, cultivation techniques, and power vessels. This was a large tomb filled with all sorts of traps and guardian giants, but there had never been a single droplet that fell from above.
Progenitor Chen's tomb seemed to have changed.
The black droplets fell for almost ten days, and during this time, everyone was avoiding them.
They avoided the droplets, but the guardian giants did not care. To them, these were just droplets that had no effect on them and would not cause them any harm.
Ten days later, the droplets above their heads gradually disappeared.
Ghoul had used the power of a Second Transformation Corpse King to break free of the droplets.
These droplets were useless aside from trapping people, as they were not fast enough. With their strength, as long as they were not careless, they would not be trapped.
You Qin also broke free with the help of the You family's battle techniques.
The black droplets disappeared, and what appeared next were incomparably large arrows that shot out from both sides.
These arrows were large enough to kill the guardian giants. To Lu Yin and the others, these weren't just arrows; they were massive weapons that could crush them to smithereens.
The arrows were quite powerful, and the only way to avoid being hit was to land on the ground.
Lu Yin was puzzled, as these arrows did not seem like they were meant to deal with them, but rather the guardian giants. Could it be that these giants were not guarding Progenitor Chen's tomb?
Were they trying to obtain something from Progenitor Chen's tomb?
Then who had designed these arrows?
A tomb was a tomb, and it was full of traps. After the arrows, there would be strange winds and loud noises. The Seven Courts had long since prepared for this, but this was the first time Lu Yin, Lei Nu, Shu Jing, and the others had encountered something like this.
Lu Yin's first thought was the Ghost Monkey. That damned monkey had explored countless tombs and was very experienced.
When he thought of the monkey, Lu Yin felt a little reluctant. After all, they had lived together for almost ten years, and he did not know how the monkey was doing.
Far away in the Eternal Kingdom, within the Witch Spirit God's Dark Tower, the monkey was very carefree. He was not human, and he did not hate the Neohuman Alliance. He was just a shadow, and it did not matter who he followed!
Following Lu Yin would often lead him into danger, and now, he was following the Witch Spirit God, one of the Seven Skygods. It was normal for such a powerhouse to go into seclusion and not care about him at all. He had decided to serve the Witch Spirit God and obtain a higher position in the Neohuman Alliance. He would then lead the Neohuman Alliance's army into the Astral Beast Domain and take back his harem: the Celestial Ice Phoenix Clan.
When he thought of this, the monkey grew excited. He could see the light of hope, and he felt that a beautiful future was beckoning to him.
As for Lu Yin, forget it. He was just an old friend, and Lu Yin would just let him go when they met again. As long as Lu Yin called him Lord Ghost Monkey, no, Brother Hou, then. Who told him to always force Lu Yin to call him Seventh Bro? That bastard! Just thinking about it made Lu Yin angry. Seventh Bro?
Bah! Lu Yin would definitely force him to call him Brother Hou next time.
A few more days passed, and the group passed through all sorts of traps and gradually approached the place they wanted to go. However, a tall wall blocked their path.
Xia Jiuyou was the first to see the wall, and he was standing quite a distance away from it. Above his head were sharp spikes protruding from the underground mountains. As far as the eye could see, the front of the wall was filled with these protruding spikes that were mottled with blood.
This was a place where civilizations had collided.
There were no records of a giant civilization in Progenitor Chen's tomb. The guardian giants here had always existed as tribes and did not possess much intelligence. But now, they had actually built a wall?
Furthermore, there were giants guarding the wall. Could a Giant Emperor have appeared?
Next, Xia Jiuyou saw Ce Jiu on the wall. His speed was not slow, and he was able to avoid the guardian giants.
The moment he saw the wall, Ce Jiu felt as if all common sense had been toppled. This was Progenitor Chen's tomb, and the existence of guardian giants was already very mysterious. But after so many years, the guardian giants had actually developed a civilization.
Xia Jiuyou discovered Ce Jiu, and the two did not conceal themselves. Against such a tall wall, it was impossible for a single person to cross it.
Not long after, Hui Santong arrived with Tearful Maiden.
Ku Lei and You Qin were the last to arrive, especially You Qin, who cut a sorry figure.
She was the weakest of the current heirs of the Seven Courts.
"Where's Xie Xiaoxian?" You Qin was puzzled.
Ce Jiu replied, "There's a tail following us. I don't think she'll come."
"As long as the heirs of the She family enter the tomb, there could be treasures everywhere. It's normal for her not to come," Hui Santong said. He then glanced at Tearful Maiden and then at the wall. He suddenly felt a sense of relief that this woman had followed them. When facing a wall of giants, the more experts there were, the higher their chances of crossing it.
Tearful Maiden looked at the tall wall with surprise hidden beneath her mask. Even in the records of the Hall of Honor, there were very few records of a savage giant civilization. This was a sign that a Giant Emperor had appeared, and now, a Giant Emperor had appeared.
"The giants in the universe can be divided into two groups. One is the savage giants, who use their bodies as weapons and are brutal killers. The other is the intelligent giants, who are more inclined towards creation and technology. The intelligent giants once had a powerful civilization that could overturn the Innerverse, and they created countless large technological weapons. However, for some unknown reason, they eventually declined. Whenever a civilization appears among the savage giants, it's a sign that a Giant Emperor has appeared," Hui Santong said slowly.
Everyone listened in silence.
