Supreme Emptiness

Chapter 1118: Chapter 1118: Breath Soil

The crowd looked up.

Everyone’s heart was filled with a violent tremor.

A giant with faint golden skin, towering twenty zhang tall, and a black star at his brow appeared ghost-like before them.

The speed was too fast.

The sea of clouds he passed through just reacted now, with sky-reaching waves rising dozens of meters high without wind.

The surging waves pushed the surrounding floating stones outwards, causing them to collide with each other.

Immediately after.

The sharp sonic booms splitting the air finally reached them.

Boom!

Their clothes fluttered in the gust, black hair wildly dancing.

Almost losing their footing, nearly blown away.

No one dared to move, staring fearfully at the Giant King before them.

With arms crossed over his chest, his enormous vertical eye filled with a cat-and-mouse teasing expression.

"Just a little more and you would’ve made it back to the safe zone."

The black star on his forehead slowly faded away.

It was clear that at the last moment, he used his Original Star to unleash tremendous power.

Blocking them with a leap.

Jiang Fan’s heart pounded rapidly.

At this moment, they had no choice but to retreat quickly.

Luckily, the Connecting Sky Black Pillar was just behind him.

The passageway was right beneath his feet.

Everyone could escape into the passageway with a single thought.

However, if the six Asura Clan members reacted too slowly.

They might be left behind by the Giant King.

Just then.

An elderly man with grizzled hair flew over from the village.

He stopped in front of the village level, shouting angrily:

"Release my clansmen."

The Giant King glanced at him with amusement: "What’s the use of shouting inside the village?"

"If you have the guts, come out and talk."

Oh?

Jiang Fan was secretly surprised.

The two seemed to be negotiating across the village.

Could it be that the Giant King can’t enter the village?

He always thought Shan Feng’s claim of being safe in the village was a vague statement.

But now, it seemed tangible.

The Giant King, indeed, could not set foot inside the village!

If he could manage to get inside, wouldn’t he be safe?

With this thought in mind.

He seized the moment while the Giant King was distracted by the Old Xiu Luo, silently taking out the bracelet given by Venerate Xinnie.

According to Venerate Xinnie.

This item could trap a Divinity Transformation Realm being for ten breaths.

If true, they might seize the chance to enter the village.

The Old Xiu Luo clenched his fists, eyes full of resentment: "Fine, I’ll come out, but you must let my grandson go in."

The Giant King burst into laughter, filled with mirth in his vertical eye:

"Your grandson stole something so important from us and even tried to take it to the Central Earth Realm."

"And he still wants to live?"

The Old Xiu Luo’s face changed drastically, hastily denying: "What are you talking about, we don’t understand."

"Our Black Cloud Village is willing to sacrifice ten of the Asura Clan for your enjoyment."

"We only ask for your mercy to spare my grandson."

The Giant King licked his lips, cruelly saying: "No need."

"Aren’t there six outside already?"

"Among them, there’s even your Black Cloud Village’s Young Master."

"They taste even better!"

He took out a bloodstained burlap sack, something writhed inside, clearly another living creature.

This was the container the Giant King used to store prey.

Just as he turned to finish off the Young Master Asura.

The path before him suddenly darkened.

A massive bracelet swiftly approached.

Not good!

As he realized something was amiss, it was already too late.

The bracelet shot out a huge beam of light, enveloping the Giant King.

He roared: "Who~ ambushed~ me~"

His voice was intermittent, unable to speak properly.

Jiang Fan’s face lit up with delight and he immediately said: "Quick, get into the village!"

"It won’t last long!"

Swish, swish, swish!

The words were still being said.

Gu Xin’er ran the fastest, taking out a piece of paper, blowing gently, and murmured:

"I can do Instantaneous Movement."

In the next moment, she instantly teleported into the village.

Bai Xin and Dharma Seal Vajra also decisively fled into the village.

The Young Master Asura and the others snapped out of it and quickly escaped inside.

Jiang Fan carried Song Lingyu, running towards the village.

Suddenly.

In his peripheral vision, he caught sight of the bloodstained sack in his hand.

So he rushed over and seized it from his hand.

"Bring it here!"

The Giant King was furious: "Creature from Central Earth... you seek death!"

A black star appeared at his brow, his power surging.

The light beam that could have bound him for ten breaths began flickering uncertainly.

Jiang Fan’s brow twitched.

With a Cloud Shadow, he dashed into the village.

Barely reaching inside the village.

A terrifying gale pressed from behind.

The Thunder Dragon underfoot shattered instantly.

His body was wracked with tearing pain.

He was about to be smashed with a single punch!

His heart stopped abruptly from fear.

But, in the next instant.

The Giant King withdrew his power in time.

Jiang Fan glanced back.

He had barely crossed the village’s boundary.

The Giant King’s fearsome fist was just outside the boundary.

Less than three inches from Jiang Fan.

Let alone a direct hit, even the wind from his fist would explode him into a bloody mist.

Yet.

He withdrew his power in time, not daring to cross the boundary to hurt someone.

Jiang Fan hurriedly retreated, moving further away.

Then he looked toward the Giant King, still in shock, his heart pounding.

That strike earlier was too close.

A slight deviation and he would have perished under the Giant King’s punch.

The Giant King’s vertical eye was brimming with anger and gloom, growling across the boundary:

"Creature from Central Earth!"

"Return the sack to me, and I’ll let you go back to the Lower Realm!"

"Otherwise, you will surely die!"

Jiang Fan shook the sack: "If you have the guts, come and get it."

The Giant King, suppressing his inner anger, grabbed the bracelet suspended in mid-air and handed it to the boundary:

"I’ll trade this for it!"

Jiang Fan checked it over, the bracelet had cracks, and its effectiveness was greatly diminished.

It might not hold a Divinity Transformation Realm being as it did earlier.

But it was still a Protective Dharma Treasure.

He rubbed his chin, saying: "One bracelet is too little."

"You’ll need to add something else."

Seeing a chance to negotiate, the Giant King pondered for a moment, then took a small bag from his waist.

Inside was a clump of black soil.

The Young Master Asura exclaimed: "Royal Court’s Breath Soil?"

"Brother Wang, this Breath Soil is a treasure."

"It accelerates plant growth, a hundred-year-old plant can grow in a month in Breath Soil."

"Only very few Giant Kings with great merit have it."

"To think the Stone Giant King also has a bag!"

What?

Jiang Fan was quite surprised.

That’s incredibly extraordinary!

He thought of the mysterious seed that could immobilize people.

If planted inside, who knows what it might grow into.

At the same time, he couldn’t help but wonder.

What prey was in the Giant King’s sack to make him value it so much?

Even willing to trade such valuable Breath Soil?

With a slight flicker in his eyes, he readily said: "Alright, let’s trade."

"We’ll throw our items across simultaneously, no tricks allowed!"

"To be safe, let’s swear an oath first!"

"To show sincerity, I’ll go first!"

"I, Brother Wang from the Central Earth Realm, swear by my honor, if I deceive you, may my offspring resemble my neighbor Old Wang!"
