Chapter 1374 - Chapter 1374 Chapter 1472 Yellow Earth Giant

Chapter 1374: Chapter 1472: Yellow Earth Giant Chapter 1374: Chapter 1472: Yellow Earth Giant The black-robed man looked at Fang Lin, but in the face of Fang Lin’s questioning, he didn’t answer, seemingly deeming it beneath him to reveal his identity to Fang Lin.

Fang Lin, however, was very curious about this black-robed man and wanted to know just who he was, but right now, retrieving the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng was more important.

“Hand over the ginseng on you, and I will not make things difficult for you,” Fang Lin said.

“Young man, you’re overconfident,” the black-robed man said indifferently, a hint of coldness clearly in his brows.

Fang Lin’s expression grew even colder; no matter who this fellow was, if he didn’t hand over the Thousand-Year Corpse Ginseng, he would be Fang Lin’s enemy.

“It seems you want to try the power of my puppet,” Fang Lin said, directly ordering the Demon Puppet to take action, without wasting further words with the black-robed man.

The Demon Puppet moved swiftly, like a fleeting shadow, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of the black-robed man, its fierce fist aiming straight for the man’s face.

The black-robed man reacted extremely quickly, seeming to have anticipated the Demon Puppet’s sudden strike, and with a palm strike, he met the Demon Puppet’s fist.

The space where their fist and palm collided instantly distorted, and a muffled sound rang out. The Demon Puppet’s form shook slightly, and the black-robed man also took two steps back.

“What a powerful puppet! But it seems neither human nor Demon Beast, truly bizarre,” the black-robed man’s eyes shone with interest, apparently intrigued by the Demon Puppet.

Naturally, the Demon Puppet didn’t answer him. As the Demonic Qi surged, it charged at the black-robed man again.

A fierce battle thus ensued.

Fang Lin immediately moved further away, fearing the repercussions of the combat between these two formidable beings would harm him.

The black-robed man wielded no weapons, using just his bare hands; he was already able to hold his ground against the Demon Puppet.

This surprised Fang Lin; after all, considering the Demon Puppet’s strength, few in the world could match it.

But this black-robed man could fight the Demon Puppet to a standstill, indicating that he must also be at the realm of Great Longevity.

However, those of Great Longevity weren’t common as cabbages and carrots; there were only a handful in the world, easily countable on two hands.

Who was this black-robed man, emerging from nowhere? What faction’s expert was he? Or, as the Old Dried Corpse had said, had he lived for at least ten thousand years, a remnant from ancient times?

While not impossible, if he truly was someone from ancient times, the secrets worth uncovering in him would be plentiful.

The confrontation between these two Great Longevity beings was earth-shattering, and the array showed signs of collapsing.

Fang Lin kept retreating, moving to a very distant place, yet he could still feel the terrifying energies colliding–energies that a Spirit Source martial artist couldn’t bear, grazing it lightly would be enough to inflict severe injury on a Spirit Source martial artist.

If it were a Spirit Bone martial artist, they would be obliterated on the spot, no matter how resilient the flesh, there would be no chance of surviving.

Just then, at the most intense moment of their clash, a massive Yellow Earth Giant suddenly appeared behind Fang Lin, and with a foot, it viciously came down towards Fang Lin, seemingly intent on stomping him into a meat patty.

“I almost forgot there’s a guardian here who hasn’t shown his face yet,” Fang Lin muttered to himself as he effortlessly dodged the Yellow Earth Giant’s stomping foot like an agile ape monkey.

The Yellow Earth Giant failed to step on Fang Lin and continued to stomp towards him several more times, seemingly realizing that the guardian hidden in the dark saw that the Demon Puppet and the man in the black robe were too strong, not so easily dealt with; instead, Fang Lin, with only the modest strength of Spirit Source third layer in cultivation, appeared to be an easy target to be crushed at will.

Therefore, the guardian decided to eliminate Fang Lin first, then deal with the tougher Demon Puppet and the man in the black robe.

The Yellow Earth Giant was incredibly strong, and although its figure was tall and burly, its movements were not hindered, but remarkably swift.

Fang Lin didn’t confront it head-on but kept dodging, all the while keeping an eye on the battle between the Demon Puppet and the man in the black robe.

Unexpectedly, another Yellow Earth Giant appeared behind Fang Lin. Caught between the two, Fang Lin suddenly found himself in imminent danger, somewhat restrained.

Left with no choice, Fang Lin covered himself in the Kylin battle armor, the Kylin Fist at the ready, striking one of the Yellow Earth Giants’ chests with full force.

With that hit, the Yellow Earth Giant’s body trembled slightly; tiny cracks appeared all over it, but it wasn’t shattered by Fang Lin’s punch.

What surprised Fang Lin was the giant’s extreme hardness. Although he was in a normal state without the Ancient Lamp of Flame God fused within him, his punch could have reached the effectiveness of a fourth or fifth level Spirit Source but only left some cracks on the Yellow Earth Giant without really destroying it.

Previously, the Demon Puppet had fought the Yellow Earth Giant and shattered one of its arms with a punch.

The fact that Fang Lin could only create a few cracks showed the significant disparity in strength between him and the Demon Puppet.

But Fang Lin wasn’t discouraged; he knew he was nowhere near the Demon Puppet’s level. The fact that he could leave a few cracks on the Yellow Earth Giant was already quite an achievement. Any other martial artist of the third level of Spirit Source likely would have been kicked away by the giant effortlessly.

The two Yellow Earth Giants indeed troubled Fang Lin, but that was all. Fang Lin didn’t have the time to get entangled with these two behemoths, ready to bring out the Ancient Lamp of Flame God and extinguish them.

But then he saw a figure whizzing towards him from a distance, a person with white hair and a youthful face–it was Zhong Wuwei.

As Zhong Wuwei approached, without a word, he simultaneously launched two purplish beams from his hands, transforming into two ferocious tigers that pounced directly onto the Yellow Earth Giants.

Even though the Yellow Earth Giants were formidable, the purplish tigers seemed even more fierce. In the midst of their tearing and biting, the giants’ bodies continuously crumbled into mud.

“Thanks,” Fang Lin said, his gratitude evident though the warmth was lacking.

Zhong Wuwei just smiled without saying much more, turning his gaze toward the intense battle between the Demon Puppet and the man in the black robe in the distance.

Seeing the man in the black robe, a hint of wariness clearly spread across Zhong Wuwei’s face.

“I didn’t expect this person to have reached this place as well,” Zhong Wuwei murmured.

The Yellow Earth Giants were vanquished by Zhong Wuwei, but in the next moment, four more Yellow Earth Giants appeared, encircling both Zhong Wuwei and Fang Lin in the middle.

These four Yellow Earth Giants were much taller than the previous two, and the aura emanating from them was also much more formidable.

Moreover, there seemed to be a connection between the four giants, subtly forming a Formation.
