Chapter 1364: Fierce Battle

The Two-Star Giant King roared repeatedly in pain. His face filled with rage, he cursed, "Little human!"

The two times he had been injured, it wasn't by a Deity Transformation expert, but by Jiang Fan, a mere Nascent Soul realm cultivator. Fortunately, Jiang Fan had indeed used the Grand Evolution Sword Array, exhausting his Nascent Soul power. Enduring intense pain, he opened his mouth and thrust out a scarlet tongue, intending to kill Jiang Fan.

At this critical moment, Jiang Fan ignited the Wish Paper he had prepared earlier. The Sky-Listening Bodhisattva finally made his move at this moment. He gazed at the Two-Star Giant King with a compassionate smile and gentle eyes, saying, "Lay down your butcher's knife and become a Buddha instantly." The Buddhist chant was dreamlike and ethereal.

The incredibly brutal Two-Star Giant King became dazed on the spot, and the speed of his thrusting tongue slowed significantly. Seeing this, Vice Palace Master You unleashed a soul flame, directly burning off the giant's long tongue. At the same time, she telekinetically pulled Jiang Fan over, grabbed a spiritual pill, and put it into his mouth, saying, "Don't waste the Wish Paper."

Jiang Fan immediately felt his Nascent Soul power rapidly replenish within him. In the blink of an eye, he had recovered 50%. That had been a rare spiritual pill capable of restoring Nascent Soul realm power! He decisively extinguished the Wish Paper and bowed, saying, "Thank you for the precious pill, Vice Palace Master You."

Vice Palace Master You glanced at the three swords on his back, her eyes filled with unconcealable shock. "Heaven-tier sword techniques, young man, you truly are something! This old woman misjudged you!"

She had originally thought Jiang Fan was merely clever but not exceptionally strong. But who would have believed he possessed such a powerful attack? And that, combined with spatial magic, he could injure a Two-Star Giant King!

Jiang Fan said, "You flatter me, Vice Palace Master You. Let's quickly act and help the Bodhisattva."

Vice Palace Master You's expression became slightly grave. This was the first true confrontation between the Central Plains and the Giant Kings in a thousand years. The horror displayed by the Two-Star Giant King made her tremble with fear. If a Two-Star was this formidable, then what about Three-Star, Four-Star, or even Five-Star Giant Kings?

Seeing the Giant King, momentarily dazed, about to regain consciousness, his body swaying precariously, Vice Palace Master You, without a word, opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of Deity Transformation blood, which then merged into a gray soul flame, forming a rune that she sent flying. The Bodhisattva also tore off his red kasaya and threw it out. The kasaya swelled against the wind, instantly transforming into a small sky curtain that descended, enveloping the twenty-zhang-tall Two-Star Giant King!

Just at this moment, the Two-Star Giant King regained consciousness, a look of surprise on his face. He hastily shrank into a speck of dust. He narrowly avoided the attack of the blood-colored rune, and at the same time, successfully slipped out through a gap in the kasaya.

He was both shocked and enraged. He hadn't expected the Sky-Listening Bodhisattva to be so troublesome! Ignoring the two, he locked onto Jiang Fan from a distance, his eyes gleaming ferociously: "Little beast, do you think you can escape?"

His finger pointed at Jiang Fan from afar. At this moment, Jiang Fan had already retreated a hundred zhang away. Logically, this was far beyond the reach of the Two-Star Giant King's ten-zhang-long arm. Yet, the Two-Star Giant King still raised his finger and sneered: "Do you misunderstand my true nature?"

His arm instantly swelled to ten zhang! But it didn't stop there! Instead, it continued to expand rapidly, reaching a hundred zhang in an instant! Jiang Fan was greatly astonished! He then realized the true nature of the size manipulation.

All this time, the Two-Star Giant King had only demonstrated his shrinking ability! He had never once displayed his expanding ability! This had created the illusion that his body could only change within a range of twenty-odd zhang.

"Die!" the Two-Star Giant King snarled. His finger, thicker than Jiang Fan's entire body, struck with terrifying power capable of crushing anything.

What made the Two-Star Giant King's heart sink was this: Faced with mortal danger, Jiang Fan suddenly became calm. He offered no resistance or evasion; instead, he spread his arms, ready to receive the blow. This reminded the Two-Star Giant King of Venerable Heart Demon. After Venerable Heart Demon embraced the bronze lock sealed in ice, the blow meant for Jiang Fan had been transferred to himself. Furthermore, Jiang Fan had just used spatial teleportation on him. Could it be that when the three-colored divine rainbow was teleported into his body, the Luck Transfer Lock was also teleported in?

Thinking of this, he hastily pulled back his hand and quickly thrust it into his chest, rummaging. Indeed! He actually grabbed a foreign object. When he pulled it out, it was none other than the ice block sealing the bronze lock! He gasped, cold sweat beading on his forehead! If that previous blow had connected, wouldn't he have been the one to die? At this thought, his hair stood on end, and his gaze towards Jiang Fan was filled with deep apprehension. This child was too great a threat! If he didn't die, he would surely become the nightmare of the ancient giants in a month!

Throwing away the Luck Transfer Lock, he once again pointed his finger to crush Jiang Fan, roaring angrily: "You've run out of tricks! Die!"

However, the Bodhisattva and Vice Palace Master You had already freed their hands. One activated a rune, and the other wielded the kasaya.

The Two-Star Giant King snorted, "Trying the same old tricks again? What can you do to me?" He once again shrank into a speck of dust, attempting to evade the rune's attack. Tiny as he was, he indeed easily avoided the rune's attack. But strangely, the rune struck the descending kasaya, suddenly bounced back, and hit the Two-Star Giant King (who was a speck of dust) squarely. The rune, infused with Deity Transformation blood and soul flame, exploded on impact. The Two-Star Giant King was hit head-on, a bloody hole blasted in his chest, black blood splattering. He let out a shriek of intense pain.

This sight left Vice Palace Master You stunned: "Is this a coincidence?" The Two-Star Giant King had no time to wallow in pain, as the kasaya was also pressing down, intending to capture him. He once again followed his previous method, found a gap in the kasaya, and was about to leap out. Precisely at this moment!

The provincial-level teleportation array beneath the seabed suddenly surged with chaotic spatial power. The descending kasaya rolled like a wave, inadvertently ensnaring the Two-Star Giant King who was attempting to pass through the gap. The kasaya seemed to come alive, rapidly shrinking and coiling around him.

"Oh no!" The Two-Star Giant King was both alarmed and enraged, hastily expanding his body, trying to break free from the kasaya. However, this kasaya was far more powerful than the Bodhisattva's kasaya given to Jiang Fan. No matter how much the Two-Star Giant King expanded, the kasaya infinitely grew with him. When the Two-Star Giant King shrank, the kasaya also shrank.

Soon, the Two-Star Giant King was completely enveloped by the kasaya, from head to toe. "You ants, do you think you're worthy of binding me? Break free!!!" He roared, his body boiling with vital energy. The kasaya binding him made tearing sounds. It was about to be torn apart by him.

A bizarre scene occurred again. Jiang Fan manipulated the purple sword, aiming it at the giant's head! This attack should have posed no threat to a Two-Star Giant King. He could blow a puff of air and send the purple sword flying backward. In fact, even if he stood still, the purple sword might not be able to penetrate his flesh!

But what stunned Vice Palace Master You, and even the monks of White Horse Temple, was this: The Two-Star Giant King roared, "Begone!" The purple sword immediately recoiled. Who would have expected? The provincial-level teleportation array below once again erupted with spatial power. The recoiling purple sword, affected by the spatial power, lunged back at the Two-Star Giant King! And, without missing, it pierced directly into the Two-Star Giant King's eye! The eye was, without a doubt, the most vulnerable part of the Giant King's head. With a wet thud, the purple sword penetrated his eye and embedded itself in his skull like a thorn. He roared in excruciating pain: "What in the world is going on?!"
