Chapter 442: Chapter 455: Green-haired Giant
After settling affairs within the Reincarnation Pearl, Mu Can left the New World, as he had more pressing matters to handle.
Breaking through to the Void Level had become a matter of urgency.
When Tongshen Mountain vanished, the cultivators who had lingered there were also transported out.
Fortunately, these people’s memories had not been erased, which was an unintended good deed by Mu Can.
Although Donghuang and others appeared helpless, they could not locate Mu Can to inquire about the final truth of the matter. After waiting for a moment, they disappeared from the spot, as the opportunities within the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm were plentiful, and it was right to seek them out sooner.
Meanwhile, another group of people stayed, choosing to wait there.
It was none other than the members of the Wangcai Divine Sect. After being transported out, they gathered together, discussing the gains within Tongshen Mountain while waiting for Wang Cai’s return.
When Mu Can appeared with Wang Cai in front of this crowd, a cheer erupted. As these people had one way or another obtained satisfactory gains within Tongshen Mountain, and most importantly, their memories had not been erased due to the array, so they remembered everything that had transpired within.
"Wangcai Divine Sect, assemble!" Wang Cai jumped onto the sedan they had prepared for him and shouted towards the towering Sky Tower at the heart of the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm.
Everyone headed towards the Sky Tower, the entire Wangcai Divine Sect spirited and morale high.
...
"Run, run, the monster is chasing us!" As the group neared the Sky Tower, they suddenly spotted a figure in panic, fleeing.
The figure saw them and hastily changed direction, shouting loudly, then without giving Mu Can and the others a chance to ask, he sprinted away.
"What’s going on?" Wang Cai looked around, unsure of what had happened.
Having only been delayed inside Tongshen Mountain for a few days, had such earth-shattering changes occurred outside, and why had monsters appeared?
"Proceed with caution," Wang Cai advised, and the group continued forward.
Mu Can didn’t follow within the crowd but stayed far behind.
He was Wang Cai’s owner, not someone from the Wangcai Divine Sect, acting subservient to Wang Cai—such a role he could not afford to lose face over.
"What exactly is going on? What changes have occurred?" Mu Can also saw the cultivator, whose strength at the peak of Martial Arts Sect was not weak among those entering the Immortal Valley Secret Realm, yet the panic in his eyes was unmistakably genuine.
What could possibly make a martial artist so panicked?
But soon Mu Can discovered the answer.
Just a few hundred meters ahead, the Wangcai Divine Sect encountered the monster mentioned by that man.
It was a giant tens of meters tall, and Wang Cai also felt a sense of familiarity from this giant.
Mu Can moved quickly, running to Wang Cai’s side and observing the green-haired giant before them.
Perhaps sensing the aura of Mu Can and the others, the green-haired giant didn’t make any rash moves.
Including Wang Cai, there were three Martial Saints in the Wangcai Divine Sect, along with Mu Can who was about to breakthrough to the Void Level—a not insignificant force.
"Do you feel a sense of déjà vu?" Wang Cai asked when he saw those big green-haired hands; he recognized the monster in front of him in an instant.
"Didn’t expect that the green-haired giant hand from those years would have reconstructed a body, but this is good. If I can absorb all the Life Spiritual Power within his body, then the New World will undergo earth-shattering changes," Mu Can stated, unafraid.
Even though the might emanating from the green-haired monster was astonishing, Mu Can was not intimidated at all.
"Even if it has regained its physical body, I’m no longer the Mu Can from back then."
Mu Can hadn’t forgotten that back then, he and Wang Cai together faced just a hand and still allowed it to escape.
Leaving behind just a single hair.
"This time, it won’t be so lucky," Mu Can glanced at Wang Cai, noticing Wang Cai was also looking at him, understanding each other’s thoughts.
A single hair from back then could transform into a Tree of Life in the New World—now an entire body would be a vast amount of Life Spiritual Power.
"First, confine him, then tighten up the New World. I’ll notify the people of the New World to surround and attack him," Wang Cai quickly thought of a brilliant strategy.
Fighting outside was too easy to accidentally harm the Wangcai Divine Sect’s cultivators surrounding them, and these people were the core strength of the Sect; losing even one was something Wang Cai could not accept.
Mu Can nodded, agreeing with Wang Cai’s tactics.
Right now, what his New World needed most was all types of Spiritual Power, especially Life Spiritual Power which was the hardest to gather.
"This isn’t some monster; this is a treasure trove," Mu Can’s eyes filled with eagerness, seeing it as a walking humanoid treasure.
"Let everyone in the New World know, everyone needs to contribute a bit of strength, this big guy seems a bit difficult to deal with," although eager, Mu Can still knew the priorities. Back then, merely a palm had managed to easily escape from Mu Can and Wang Cai’s pursuit.
After regaining his physical body now, there would definitely be earth-shattering changes.
"Wang Cai disappeared by Mu Can’s side, probably to inform the beings in the New World."
"We should single out a place in the New World to specifically lure opponents in and gang up on them, and let Wang Cai arrange a lot of Arrays, hehe, by then, every opponent that comes will die," Mu Can thought secretly.
As the New World initially revealed its potential, it became evident it was a powerful weapon in Mu Can’s hand, and there was no reason for him not to use it.
Mu Can had not arrived first, yet this simple idea of his unexpectedly created a new tactic.
Lure the enemy into a trap, then gang up to kill.
However, although later generations tried to imitate this tactic, none could reach the heights Mu Can achieved.
Hearing the news from Wang Cai, the people in the New World were completely ready, just waiting for him to lead the green-haired Giant in.
"What do you reckon will come in next?" Da Zhuang asked looking at the Frost Giant Bear.
As fellow Guardian Beasts, their strength increased with the rankings in the Heavenly Pillar, all having good relations in the New World.
"Let’s see, if it’s not a powerful Demon Beast, Mu Can wouldn’t alert us," Lin Ge said.
The renovation of Tongshen Mountain was progressing feverishly, and Lin Ge believed that unless it was a dire emergency, Mu Can wouldn’t summon them over.
While they were speaking, a huge green-haired figure suddenly appeared before them.
"Holy crap, how did this demon from beyond our realm break free from its Confinement?" Lin Ge exclaimed.
Indeed, just as Mu Can and Wang Cai had guessed, this green-haired Giant was part of the invaders from beyond the Mortal World back then.
Mu Can’s figure shifted, and he also disappeared from his original spot.
"Stay right here and wait," he instructed the people from Wangcai Divine Sect before leaving.
Leaving a group of people looking at each other, standing frozen in their tracks.
How could such a powerful green-haired Giant just disappear like that.
"Attack." Wang Cai was well-prepared; as soon as the green-haired Giant appeared, he immediately ordered an attack.
Perhaps because the green-haired Giant had just reconstituted its body, its brain didn’t seem very sharp.
"Big Bull, does he look like your brother?" Ben Ben, sitting on Big Bull’s shoulder, wasn’t afraid of the flames on Big Bull.
"Our family all have flames. This one definitely isn’t from our clan," Big Bull looked at the green-haired Giant and said in a round, deep voice.
Though they were just chatting, a hot Molten Rock Ball had already formed in front of Big Bull.
At Wang Cai’s command, everyone readied their attacks, fiercely targeting the green-haired Giant standing perplexedly on the spot.
"Is this really a demon from beyond our realm?" Mu Can asked Lin Ge, having heard the yell he let out. If this was indeed such a demon, then it shouldn’t be killed off so simply.
This was a great opportunity to study a demon from beyond the realm.
The moment it appeared, it was met with severe attacks, and now, the combat power in the New World created by Mu Can was not weak at all.
That huge Big Willow Tree was outright a Void Level, and along with others’ strength and the boost from the Origin of the New World.
This barrage of attacks caused substantial injury to the green-haired Giant.
However, the pain provoked the green-haired Giant’s ferocity, and with a roar, it charged at the people.
This green-haired Giant, in appearance, wasn’t much different from an ordinary human, except for a long, sharp horn on its head, reminiscent of some members of the Demon Clan.
That horn looked extremely sharp, inscribed with mysterious patterns. Wang Cai didn’t recognize them, but this didn’t prevent them from guessing it was a potent racial talent.
"Defend." Wang Cai lightly shouted.
The nearby Big Willow Tree instantly became as vast as the sky blocking the sun, regaining its original form, and willow branches seemed to hang down from the sky, shielding everyone behind them.
Wang Cai, Mu Can, and Lin Ge had once tested the power of these willow branches, but that was when they were on the opposing side.
Now, with these willow branches hanging in front of them, Mu Can and the others truly realized how strong this sense of safety was.
"Confinement." Mu Can wasn’t idle either, controlling the Origin power of the world to attack the green-haired Giant.
"Holy crap, this guy is too strong, my Confinement has hardly any effect."
This was the first time that using the power of the entire world to suppress someone had no effect.
"These are merely the minions among the demons that invaded in those years," Lin Ge said with a complex expression as he stared at the demon from beyond our realm.
