God of Pets-Chapter 425: Unstoppable Power

Bam!

The Golden Giant swept with his palm, and Hu Quan’s body flew horizontally, crashing into a long-dead tree whose branches pierced through him, leaving him hanging on it.

Hu Quan opened his mouth, and blood flowed out.

He knew he was done for; there was little chance of returning alive from this.

After sweeping aside Hu Quan, the Golden Giant set his sights on Chen Guan, the only one still standing, and walked towards him step by step.

Chen Guan immediately gathered his Asura Saber and slashed at the Golden Giant from a distance.

The Golden Giant neither dodged nor evaded, allowing the Asura Blade Energy to strike its body.

The Asura Blade Energy shattered instantly and was absorbed into the Golden Giant’s body.

Chen Guan shook his head inwardly; as long as the Golden Giant could absorb Primordial Energy, any secret skill was useless, unless he had overwhelming power.

The Golden Giant continued onwards without pause, treating Chen Guan’s attack as nothing.

Hu Quan, hanging from the branch, saw that Chen Guan’s assault had as little effect on the Golden Giant as scratching an itch, and he smiled grimly, blood gushing from his mouth.

Though he would die here, the mission was ultimately a success.

Chen Guan was no match for the Golden Giant, and he too was on a dead-end path.

Moreover, Xiu Jie Ming’s life would also end here.

Regardless of whether this was attributed to him, his sacrifice meant he would receive credit.

With such credit, his wife would receive a substantial pension, and his children could enjoy the welfare of the Inspectorate.

The Inspectorate had a comprehensive benefit system, ensuring inspectors’ families wouldn’t worry after their passing.

As the Golden Giant was about to reach Chen Guan, Fu Tianji burst from the rubble of the stone house, transforming into a streak of red light, instantly reaching the Golden Giant’s back, launching an attack with his eight arms.

The Celestial Gate Left-Hand Saber activated, and the Secret Divine Weapon in one of the left hands broke speed limits, slamming into the Golden Giant.

The sound of metal clashing with stone resonated throughout the area; such power not only failed to harm the Golden Giant but caused Fu Tianji to lose his grip on the weapon due to the recoil, sending it flying from his hand.

"The Golden Giant, after fusing with Xiu Jie Ming, used Returning to the True Self, powered by a large amount of Primordial Energy, making its body horribly strong," thought Chen Guan, eyes glinting.

Watching Fu Tianji being swept away by the Golden Giant’s backhand, Chen Guan felt inspired instead.

If secret skills were useless, he could, like the Golden Giant, use Xiu Jie Ming’s Returning to the True Self.

The Spirit of the Cheerleaders recorded a Second Stage Returning to the True Self, which Chen Guan could also use.

Since this power relied on the strength of Primordial Energy to enhance the body, Chen Guan’s Primordial Energy was unrivaled in this world, making his Returning to the True Self immensely strong.

With that thought, Chen Guan activated Returning to the True Self.

His entire body emitted white Primordial Energy, resembling a boiling kettle.

His muscles and bones became denser to the naked eye, altering his physical condition somewhat.

He appeared slightly leaner than usual, yet more robust; his skin and muscles gleamed like jade, devoid of any excess flesh or fat.

This, of course, was insufficient; it was merely the first stage of Returning to the True Self, with limited Primordial Energy output and strengthening time. The expellable Primordial Energy was just a small fraction of Chen Guan’s.

The strength enhancement also had limits.

Even now, Chen Guan’s body was far from comparable to the Golden Giant’s.

Not to mention the Golden Giant, his Second Awakening body was nowhere near Fu Tianji’s level.

However, this was just the beginning. Chen Guan used the second stage of Returning to the True Self, unleashing more Primordial Energy, further enhancing his body.

With continuous activation of the second stage, Primordial Energy erupted from him, forming a cloud in the sky like that of the Golden Giant, growing larger by the moment.

Chen Guan’s body became increasingly crystal-clear, gradually becoming as transparent as Xiu Jie Ming’s earlier, like flawless crystal while radiating brilliance.

But Chen Guan soon realized he wouldn’t defeat the Golden Giant with this move.

His Second Awakening body couldn’t endure enhancements of the Golden Giant’s level; regardless of his abundant Primordial Energy, his body barely held together after repeated enhancements.

At this rate, he might end up like Xiu Jie Ming, defeating the enemy only for his own body to break apart.

He might even fare worse, possibly unable to reach Xiu Jie Ming’s physique before he cracked apart himself.

Fu Tianji struggled to fight, only causing minor annoyance to the Golden Giant. After repelling Fu Tianji, the Golden Giant seemingly teleported in front of Chen Guan, attacking him.

After using Returning to the True Self, Xiu Jie Ming couldn’t use secret skills as he exhausted his Primordial Energy.

But Chen Guan was different; he had plenty of Primordial Energy, still usable for secret skills.

He performed One-Night Step, coupled with Martial Arts Rhythm, to evade the Golden Giant’s punch.

Yet, the next second, Chen Guan realized the Golden Giant’s techniques poured forth like a rushing river.

These were Xiu Jie Ming’s techniques; though not as skilled in Martial Arts Rhythm as Shang Ziyi, he was proficient in various techniques himself.

Under the Golden Giant’s speed, Xiu Jie Ming’s techniques and skills were perfectly showcased.

Chen Guan couldn’t dodge and was forced into a direct clash, throwing a punch at the Golden Giant.

Chen Guan found his own body strength couldn’t compare to the Golden Giant’s, lagging in both power and physical resilience.

His crystalline flesh and bones, enhanced by Returning to the True Self, cracked from the force of the punch.

His body flew backwards, crashing heavily to the ground, his fingers and forearm visibly fractured.

"Damn, this body is too weak, having so much Primordial Energy, yet unable to use Returning to the True Self for further enhancement!" Chen Guan felt a deep sense of helplessness.

Hu Quan watched this unfold, feeling a swell of glee.

Chen Guan could use abilities like Xiu Jie Ming, indicating they might have conspired long before.

To Hu Quan, this was a calculated alliance, secretly opposing the Ancestral Court and the Inspectorate.

"No matter how you scheme... you’ll die here today anyway... dead is dead... who’s more noble?" Hu Quan gave a bitter smile.

The Golden Giant attempted a pursuit but was tackled by Fu Tianji.

He wrapped his two arms around the Golden Giant, while the other six arms pounded relentlessly, some clutching weapons, some empty.

However, Fu Tianji’s assaults no longer affected the Golden Giant.

Fed up, the Golden Giant seized Fu Tianji’s head with one hand, lifted his body, and punched his face, caving in the faceplate.
