Seeing that Chen Huang was about to be completely smashed to the ground by the merged mountains, all of the colossal giants began roaring at the sky, unleashing a noise that was familiar to only those of their blood. These roars had been passed down from ancient times and were carved into their blood, bones, and the very cells of each and every colossal giant. Carried along by instinct, even Ku Wei unconsciously transformed into a colossal giant and began roaring as well.
Ku Wei’s voice instantly overpowered those of all of the other giants. The blood in his body began to boil, and the faint image of an even bigger and more imposing figure appeared behind him. It looked as though a true giant had stood up, instantly dwarfing all of the colossal giants. Before this giant, Ku Wei’s height of 8,000 meters left him as insignificant as an ant. All of the giants in the surroundings who saw this were shocked.
Xi Gu was also watching from the distance. He and Ku Wei stood opposite from each other, but even so, Xi Gu was still able to clearly make out the giant silhouette, even though he was not able to clearly make out the face. The size of the giant far exceeded Chen Huang, and even the stellular tribulation.
Xi Gu could not believe his eyes; how could such a massive giant exist? Was that still considered human? It was much bigger than even the surrounding planets!
Qing Kong and the others all saw the image as well, and the humans employees of Giant Consortium, such as Leng Yan, saw it as well, but all that they could see were the legs of the image – no, not even all of the silhouette’s legs, but rather just the ankles. From where the humans stood, their eyes could only see the ankles of the image.
Ku Wei lifted his head and looked up at the massive giant behind him, completely dumbfounded. What in the world was that?
That enormous giant let out an angry roar. It was a sound that came from the soul, and it triggered a change in Chen Huang’s physique. When he saw the massive giant, he also felt an resonant aura rise up within himself, and it caused his bloodline to ignite. He could not resist the urge to roar along with the enormous giant, and a faint white of battle power quickly turned black as it twined around his body. The black could only be seen momentarily before it turned purple, and then the purple changed into dark gold, which then turned green before becoming blue. The moment the blue lines covered Chen Huang’s body, the pressure put on him by the three combined mountains suddenly decreased. However, things had not yet finished; the blue lines became magenta, which finally completed the transformation by turning red.
The magenta lines that covered the colossal giant’s entire body were accompanied by red, which signified nine lined battle force.
Ku Wei was stunned, as was everyone else who had just witnessed the same scene. Was it that easy to cultivate battle force?
The unbelievably large giant only remained visible for a moment before it completely vanished. If not for the fact that literally every single person present had seen it, its entire existence could easily have been dismissed as an illusion.
The giant’s appearance had granted Chen Huang nine lined battle force, as well as the power to overcome the force of the three mountains.
Chen Huang roared with rage, and with one punch, he managed to shatter all three of the mountains. That accomplished, the stellular tribulation disappeared.
The thousands of colossal giants surrounding Chen Huang started cheering loudly as they stared at him with blazing emotions of respect and admiration.
Chen Huang raised his head. His body felt much younger than before, and his height had doubled, making him 20,000 meters tall. He was forced to look down at all of the other colossal giants, and even Ku Wei only reached Chen Huang’s waist at best.
Xi Gu clenched his fists as he watched everything from a distance. The Expeditionary Forces had no more time to waste; if they let Chen Huang become accustomed to his strength as an Envoy, it would become incredibly difficult to deal with the giants. This thought prompted Xi Gu to immediately take action, and his flecks of gray and white light shot towards Chen Huang.
Chen Huang raised a hand to meet the approaching attack with a slap, and the giant’s hand completely crushed the gray and white lights with nine lined battle force. Even the void was distorted by the overwhelming power. Chen Huang’s body suddenly shot out of the true universe, and he crashed into Xi Gu. Both of Xi Gu’s arms were blown back by the impact, and he was sent flying from the powerful impact.
At this moment, Xi Gu only had one thought, which was to cheat.
In a battle between Envoys, each person was forced to face their enemy and the true universe at the same time. If a person happened to overuse their stellular energy and was not careful to conceal their presence, they would have their stellular energy forcefully extracted from their body. This was why only Envoys who possessed curios were able to fight without restraint. Without such protection, the only option was to remain wary at all times. However, things were different for colossal giants, as they tended to fight solely with pure physical strength, which meant that they rarely had to worry about other factors. In particular, after Chen Huang had comprehended nine lined battle force, he had instantly become far more terrifying when compared to humans who had accomplished the same. This was entirely because of his strength as a giant.
Xi Gu then suddenly recalled that battle force had originally been adapted from the giants’ race to begin with. It looked like it was a form of cultivation that giants were the best suited for.
Suffering from one of Chen Huang’s slaps forced Xi Gu to understand that the Expeditionary Forces’ current mission had ended in failure. No matter what they did at this point in time, they would be able to do nothing to Giant Consortium, as Chen Huang alone was able to defeat all of them. The Expeditionary Forces could not go up against the colossal giants or Giant Consortium.
Left with no other choice, the military was ordered to retreat.
The battle with Giant Consortium proved to be a short one, yet the impact it had was quite considerable. What had shocked the Expeditionary Forces the most was not that Chen Huang had become an Envoy, but rather the silhouette of the massive giant that had appeared behind Ku Wei. Even Chen Huang’s full height after his breakthrough was nothing at all when compared to that enormous giant. The difference between the two had been just too much.
Because Chen Huang had also absorbed Ku Wei’s blood, the way the tribe’s chief looked at Ku Wei had changed. This was something that could not have been avoided.
After the Expeditionary Forces left, Ku Wei immediately called Lu Yin and gave a report about the attack on Giant Consortium.
On hearing the news, Lu Yin’s expression turned grim. To think that Cong Ying would take the opportunity brought about by the war in the Cosmic Sea to try to exterminate Giant Consortium. If it not for the fact that Chen Huang had managed to break through and become an Envoy, things would have ended up truly bleak for Giant Consortium. Still, the events in Giant Consortium’s territory had already been adding hail to snow.
As he processed the news, Lu Yin immediately sent a message to Bu Laoweng, asking him to denounce Cong Ying and the Expeditionary Forces. After that, Lu Yin intended to lead Ku Wei’s group of colossal giants into the Cosmic Sea. He hoped to amass all the forces he could in order to assist Leon’s Armada.
At the same time, the flames of war continued to rage furiously in the Cosmic Sea. Highsage Leon, who had drifted away from the main battlefield, was alone facing the captain of the Longevity Brigade, Ji Qiang. The intense battle between the three captains caused the heavens and earth of the Cosmic Sea to crack and crumble.
Of the seven regiments that made up Leon’s Armada, the captain of the Cross Regiment – Rocky – had died, as had the captain of the Charging Elephants Regiment, Elephant King. The Longevity Brigade and the Ignition Crew had both suffered terrible losses, as had Chaosgod Mountain. Of particular note, Cang Song had been injured even before the battle had started, and he ended up dying during the war in the Cosmic Sea.
Cang Song had been the one to kill Elephant King, and Elephant King’s last counterattack before death had managed to take Cang Song down as well.
Cang Shi stood above the sea. It was no longer seawater beneath his feet, but blood.
Half of his body was already stained red. He had no idea why Chaosgod Mountain needed to be involved in this war, but one thing he did know was that more than half of the cultivators from Chaosgod Mountain had already died, though the casualties suffered by the pirates who had arrived to reinforce Leon’s Armada were even more catastrophic.

Cang Mu had also arrived. As someone who had once held ninth place on the Top 100 Rankings, he was no longer considered part of the younger generation. He had followed Arbiter War King, which had caused Cang Mu to be known as the disgrace of Chaosgod Mountain. However, the moment this war had started, he had rushed over at top speed to help Chaosgod Mountain, as Cang Mu had already been training in the Cosmic Sea before the fighting had even started. Despite his strength, he had still not been able to avoid death.
The young stutterer was still on one of the Longevity Brigade’s warships, and he was quite anxious; just what in the world was going on? Why were they fighting a war all of a sudden? The youth did not dare step even a single foot into the sea after seeing the countless corpses that filled it.
Somewhere nearby, Zi Jun was panting heavily. He had already lost half of an arm during the fighting. He looked up at the sky far above, clearly deep in thought. He knew that he likely did not stand much of a chance of surviving to the end of this war.
From Big Sis’s mercenary crew, Da Chong had died, and so had Que Zi. People who Lu Yin knew had died one after another.
Lu Yin stared at all of the corpses floating atop the sea with his bloodshot eyes. There were some from Leon’s Armada, but more were from the Ignition Crew, Chaosgod Mountain, and the Longevity Brigade.
Following a glimmer that flashed in front of them, Liu Ye and Fei Hua led Lu Yin to the most vicious portion of the battlefield. Lu Yin’s heart raced the moment he arrived, and he looked off into the distance in the direction of where Highsage Leon, Jin Mei, and Ji Qiang were fighting. He caught sight of a fourth cluster of runes in that place, and their number was beyond terrifying.
Lu Yin had seen that particular group of runes before in Daynight Flowzone above the Nightking Planet. Nightking Dijiang was present.
Lu Yin transformed his pupils into runes to get a better view. He had not expected Nightking Dijiang to appear, and so Lu Yin unhesitatingly released Daynight Praises in an attempt to ambush the Nightking.
Not even Highsage Leon had noticed Nightking Dijiang’s presence, as he had been too focused on dealing with Ji Qiang and Jin Mie; how could Highsage Leon have any attention to spare on the possibility of another expert lying in wait for him nearby? Even in a one-on-one battle, Highsage Leon would struggle to fight against Nightking Dijiang, as if that were not the case, he would never have asked Highsage Shenwei for help in the past.
Nightking Dijiang had originally planned to sneak attack, since Highsage Leon had not noticed him. The only people who had sensed his presence were from the Ignition Crew, but there was no way any of them would reveal his presence. However, Lu Yin’s attack had caused Nightking Dijiang to lose his cover.
Even if Lu Yin’s Daynight Praises was no different from scratching an itch for Nightking Dijiang, the attack had still drawn Highsage Leon’s attention, which had been Lu Yin’s entire goal.
Nightking Dijiang was furious, and he retaliated against the spiritual force of Daynight Praises with counter-attacks. Lu Yin had already been prepared for such an event, and he had already set up his Inception Array for protection. Despite using the sourcebox array, Lu Yin still ended up coughing up blood from the counter-attack, and he even suffered a mental blow that nearly left him unconscious.
“Dijiang, you’re courting death!” Highsage Leon roared as he slashed his impressive saber at Nightking Dijiang.
Ji Qiang swept his spear at Highsage Leon while mocking the man, “Highsage Leon, say that after you defeat the two of us!”
Nightking Dijiang shot a death glare towards Lu Yin. If not for the various powerhouses protecting Lu Yin, Nightking Dijiang would not have been so gentle with his attacks. He easily could have killed the youth.
Lu Yin’s body was shaking. This was not because of fear, but due to the aftereffects of Nightking Dijiang’s counter-attacks. Once the disparity between people’s spiritual forces became too vast, the pain one would feel from an attack would far exceed physical pain.
“Hurry up and take care of him!” Lu Yin shouted.
Liu Ye and Fei Hua glanced at each other. “We’re no match for him.”
When Nightking Dijiang had used a spiritual force attack against Lu Yin, both of the Envoys had tried to shield Lu Yin from the damage Yin, but sadly, neither of them were very proficient with spiritual force, and thus they had only been able to watch as the attack had struck Lu Yin.
Lu Yin roared in a deep voice, “Deal with him now or I’ll detonate the sourcebox arrays in your bodies this instant!”
“You!” Sister Fei Hua angrily retorted, but Liu Ye held her back as he shook his head.
“Just do it.” After speaking, Liu Ye stepped forward and unleashed his fluttering willow leaves against Nightking Dijiang. Sister Fei Hua snorted in rage before joining her husband. She could never allow him to confront someone so incredibly dangerous alone.
Lu Yin had also been left with no choice in the batter; he could not just leave Highsage Leon alone to face three powerhouses. On top of that, Nightking Dijiang’s spiritual force was extremely difficult to counter.
Lu Yin had not expected the Daynight clan to get caught up in the war as well. Ever since he had trashed their flowzone, they had almost entirely isolated themselves and had kept a very low profile. Their forces had been slowly chipped away at by the Sword Sect, and the Daynight clan had long since lost their title of being the most powerful clan in the Innerverse. In fact, as time had passed, they had become practically irrelevant. This was also why it was so shocking to see them suddenly reappear, not to mention that their entrance to the war was the one that was forcing Lu Yin into a corner.
Liu Ye and Fei Hua would never be able to match up to Nightking Dijiang. Even though their combined attacks were truly remarkable, Nightking Dijiang was no ordinary powerhouse. He was the patriarch of the Daynight clan, and he had cultivated many mysterious techniques. Even if he were placed next to powerhouses from the Perennial World who matched his cultivation, Nightking Dijiang would still be considered one of the best.
All that Liu Ye and Fei Hua were capable of was to buy a bit of time and stall for a while. They had absolutely no chance of victory.
Lu Yin stared into the distance in worry; Liu Ye and Fei Hua had to hold out!
Someone from the Ignition Crew tried to attack Lu Yin from behind, but Lu Yin never even moved a muscle. His attacker tried to stab a knife into Lu Yin’s back, but it was pointless. The attack could not break through Lu Yin’s defenses, and Lu Yin then easily dealt with the person.
Out of everyone on the entire battlefield, the only opponents Lu Yin truly really wanted to fight with were the Envoys.
