Chapter 70: Extrarealm Flying Bean
Chapter 70: Extrarealm Flying Bean
In the sky above, the vortex on the surface of the giant silver moon had already expanded to over twice its original size.
A semi-transparent barrier could just barely be made out at the deepest point inside the vortex, and beyond that barrier seemed to be a completely foreign world.
All of a sudden, the semi-transparent barrier flashed as if something had crashed into it from the other side.
The giant silver moon trembled slightly, and a rift appeared on the surface of the semi-transparent barrier within the vortex.
A ball of piercing yellow light shot out from within, then began a rapid descent.
The semi-transparent barrier instantly sealed over again, following which the vortex suddenly began to shrink, and soon, the barrier could no longer be seen.
Blue light flashed through the giant golden ape's eyes, and it was instantly able to identify the object enveloped within the yellow light.
It was a bright yellow bean that was extremely similar to the beans that Duan Renli had released out of that yellow gourd earlier, but this bean was far larger, and there were countless profound runes engraved on its surface.
The large bean suddenly paused in its descent, then revolved in mid-air to release countless golden runes in a frenzy. The golden runes surged around the bean, releasing a vast expanse of golden light that basked the nearby area in a radius of over 100 feet in a golden glow that was rippling and warping incessantly, much like the disturbed surface of a golden pond.
Immediately thereafter, a crisp crack rang out, and the bean began to expand at an incredible rate while sprouting a head and four limbs.
In virtually the blink of an eye, the yellow bean that was originally no larger than a walnut had transformed into a golden giant that was over 2,000 feet tall, and its entire body was radiating golden light.
The golden giant was very similar in appearance to the golden warriors from before, with a completely bare upper body and bulging, vascular muscles on its legs and arms. It was as if its entire body were forged from steel essence, and its mere presence alone gave off a tremendous sense of pressure.
In the next instant, the surface of the silver moon shuddered once again, and countless yellow specks began to fly out from within. These were none other than the yellow beans that had been left in the domain treasure, and they were falling like rain.
Strangely enough, as soon as the yellow beans came into contact with the golden light that was radiating from the golden giant's body, they were immediately drawn to the giant by some type of suction force.
All of the beams that fell onto the giant's body were instantly sucked in, causing the golden giant to swell even further in size.
By the time all of the tens of thousands of yellow beans were drawn into the giant's body, it had swelled all the way to around 10,000 feet tall, standing like a pillar between heaven and earth, dwarfing even the nearby mountains.
An indescribably immense aura emanated from its body before sweeping in all directions.
"What the hell is that thing?"
"It's massive!"
"I don't like what's going on here! I think I just saw our supreme elder being defeated by that giant golden ape, and now, this thing has appeared out of nowhere!"
"Now's not the time to be chatting, we have to get out of here!"
All of the Origin Realm Temple disciples in the surrounding area were naturally horrified by this alarming sight, and many of them began to flee in all directions in a blind panic.
However, there were also quite a few disciples who were of the opinion that there was no danger in watching the unfolding situation from afar. Of course, these disciples consisted primarily of high-grade cultivators such as those who were at the Spatial Tempering Stage and the Body Integration Stage.
All of a sudden, the giant silver moon in the sky flashed a few times with silver light, then began to rapidly shrink. After just a short while, it had shrunk down to become a dull silver plate that was over 100 feet in size. Immediately thereafter, the silver plate came drifting down from the heavens, bursting into flames during its descent.
In the absence of the silver moon, the light of the stars that had previously been concealed was allowed to shine through again.
The giant golden ape completely ignored the changes taking place in the silver moon, and its gaze remained fixed firmly on the golden giant in the sky this entire time.
If it weren't mistaken, there was a very good chance that the yellow bean that had given rise to this golden giant had come from the Immortal Realm.
In fact, it was very likely that it was directly connected to the three immortal patriarchs of the Heavenly Ghost Sect.
Right as these thoughts were running through Han Li's mind, the golden giant's face rippled slightly, and a projection of a human face with a sickly yellow complexion emerged. The golden giant cast a cold gaze toward the giant golden ape, then pounced directly toward it like a golden asteroid, reaching the giant ape in the blink of an eye before raising its right arm and throwing a vicious punch.
A yellow blast spread through the surrounding area like a turbulent wave, pulverizing all of the trees and mountains in its path.
The giant golden ape let loose a thunderous roar as its body quickly swelled to over 1,000 feet tall. At the same time, silver light flashed from both of its arms, and countless silver spiritual patterns emerged to form layers of complex arrays that spread over the entirety of the ape's arms, releasing a burst of terrifying power.
The golden ape then also retaliated with a punch of its own, and a silver hurricane swept forth from its arm.
The two fists of vastly contrasting sizes clashed violently with an earth-shattering boom and a vast eruption of golden and silver light, causing the nearby space to warp and buzz incessantly.
The giant golden ape's body shuddered violently, and the silver light on its arms was shattered as it was sent flying back like a giant cannonball. A string of loud thumps rang out as its body smashed its way through three or four small mountains in succession before finally crashing into a mountain that was over 10,000 feet tall, and only after plunging over 100 feet into the mountain did it finally come to a rest.
The huge mountain trembled violently as countless scattered rocks came clattering down, and it was almost toppled by the force of the impact. As for all of the buildings, cave abodes, and medicine gardens on the mountain, all of it was instantly reduced to piles of ruins and wreckage.
The giant golden ape flew out of the deep indentation in the mountain face before dusting itself off, and even though it was completely unscathed, there was a hint of astonishment in its eyes.
He was unable to express the full power of the Giant Mountain Ape due to his severely limited magic power reserves, but even so, this golden giant possessed truly unfathomable strength, so much so that even Han Li was feeling completely outmatched.
Close to 10 kilometers away, the golden giant paused in its flight, then landed heavily on the ground down below, causing the earth to quake and rumble beneath its feet.
It then bent its knees while leaning forward slightly, then pushed off against the ground forcefully with its feet.
An explosive bang rang out as ripples that were visible even to the naked eye spread through the air, and the golden giant rushed toward the giant golden ape like a shooting star, arriving directly above the ape in the blink of an eye before reaching down with its huge golden hands.
The giant ape was rather taken aback by the giant's speed and agility, but it remained calm and collected as a vast expanse of azure light surfaced over its body, and it rolled onto the ground before instantly transforming into a majestic azure bird that was around 400 to 500 feet in size.
This was none other than Han Li's Azure Luan Bird form, and the bird spread its wings before vanishing on the spot to avoid the golden giant's gran.
A deafening boom rang out as the golden giant grabbed onto the huge mountain that was standing behind where the giant ape was originally situated, and the top half of the mountain was forcibly removed.
The severed section of the mountain came tumbling down, crushing two other mountains behind it and sending violent tremors running through the ground once again.
An azure shadow flashed behind the golden giant, and the Azure Luan Bird appeared out of thin air before sinking its talons viciously into the giant's back.
Several long gashes were instantly torn into the golden giant's back, but they weren't very deep, and they were virtually negligible given how enormous the giant's body was.
The golden giant swatted a hand toward the Azure Luan Bird, unleashing a burst of tremendous power that caused a string of loud bangs to ring out in the air.
The Azure Luan Bird vanished yet again as an azure shadow, then appeared directly in front of the golden giant before giving its wings a vigorous flap.
Hundreds of feathers were instantly sent flying through the air before transforming into countless azure blades of wind, each of which was over 100 feet in length. The edges of every single blade of wind were giving off a sharp gleam, and they slashed into the golden giant's body at an incredible speed.
A series of gashes were sliced into the golden giant's chest and abdomen, causing it to fly into a thunderous rage. It immediately turned its head around before swinging an arm viciously through the air, but all it managed to do was strike an afterimage left behind by the Azure Luan Bird.
A glimmer of light flashed within the Azure Luan Bird's eyes as it began to fly around the golden giant, leaving a trail of afterimages in its wake as decoys as it searched for the next opportunity to strike.
To say that the golden giant's strength was remarkable was a severe understatement, but thankfully, its defenses weren't all that exceptional, and the Azure Luan Bird's attacks were capable of wounding it. The injuries appeared to be insignificant, but if enough of them were inflicted, the accumulating effect was undoubtedly going to culminate into something more debilitating.
Right at this moment, bursts of yellow light emerged from the golden giant's chest before quickly spreading over its entire body.
The wounds inflicted onto its back and chest rapidly healed within the yellow light, allowing it to fully recover in a matter of mere seconds.
The Azure Luan Bird couldn't help but falter slightly upon seeing this.
However, its eyes then narrowed slightly as it let loose a defiant cry, then elevated its speed to its maximal capacity as it flew around the golden giants while unleashing ferocious wind-attribute attacks.
The golden giant was incredibly strong, but its speed was far inferior to the Azure Luan Bird, which was renowned for its speed even among true spirit beings. As a result, it was flailing around wildly with its arms, but it was unable to even graze the Azure Luan Bird. However, the mountains in the area were not so fortunate, and the smaller mountains were completely pulverized, while the taller mountains were also toppled with ease.
The Azure Luan Bird continued to fly rapidly around the golden giant, the latter was quickly riddled with wounds.
However, yellow light continued to spread from the giant's chest, and regardless of what type of injury it sustained, it was always able to make a full recovery within a matter of seconds.
Not only that, but the golden giant's movements were gradually becoming more and more agile. It seemed to be familiarizing itself with the movements of the Azure Luan Bird, and it was slowly becoming more and more able to keep up with the bird's speed.
The two were constantly on the move as their battle raged on, destroying countless mountains and buildings in the Origin Realm Temple in the process.
Resounding booms rang out incessantly within the temple as widespread destruction ensued, and at this point, even the high-grade cultivators who had originally decided to stay and spectate had already fled the scene for self-preservation.
Daoist Closed Mountain was laying on the ground, watching helplessly as the sect fell into ruin, and he was desperate to do something.
If things were to continue like this, everything that had been built up over the course of the past 1,000,000 years would be destroyed!
However, as he raised his head to look up at the two deity-like titans locked in battle up above, he could only give a wry smile and lament his own ill-fortune.
