Chapter 333: Chapter 333: Such a Terrifying Girl
"Chen, look... that big guy," Zi Ji giggled, blinking her eyes. "I want to catch it."
"..."
The latter’s face darkened.
Following her gaze, they saw an Ancient Giant towering hundreds of zhang.
A single slap from such a being could kill them all right there. Fortunately, they had Lao Huang with them.
With this thought, Chen Shixian glanced at Lao Huang.
Zi Ji spoke again, "There’s also a big snake over there; it looks pretty." She pointed to the left.
If the "big snake" heard this, it would surely cough up blood.
It?
A big snake?
Allow me to introduce the Sky Swallowing Python, a creature as famous as the Ancient Giants, with extraordinary blood flowing in its veins, having already developed formidable Spiritual Intelligence.
It was in deep slumber.
In fact, the Ancient Ferocious Beasts lurking at the entrance of Soup Valley were not limited to just the Ancient Giants and the Sky Swallowing Python; there was also the legendary Three-eyed God Monkey.
With an eye between its brows, if it were to open, even Lords could be easily slain.
Of course, when Soup Valley was still in the Nine Heavens Land, this place was not an entrance but a Secret Realm within Soup Valley. After falling to the Heaven Martial Continent, it became an entrance.
A group of young geniuses from Fairy Valley was searching here, on the verge of finding a Great Opportunity, when suddenly an Ancient Giant leaped out.
After they escaped the giant’s pursuit, Soup Valley plummeted into the Heaven Martial Continent.
Alas! Thinking about this, Bai Yisheng felt depressed. He always sensed a pair of unseen hands orchestrating everything. Not only that, but a deep unease settled in his heart.
Yuan Qifeng smiled. "We’ve waited a long time. That Ancient Giant should be asleep by now. Let’s set off!" He glanced at Bai Yisheng and said indifferently, "Bai, do you want to join us?"
"Please reconsider, Senior Brother," Bai Yisheng said helplessly. "This Heaven Martial Continent is extraordinary and different from other places..."
Before he could finish, Yuan Qifeng cut him off, his expression souring. "Enough, Bai! This Heaven Martial Continent is just a prison. How can it be different? Even if it were, it would only involve a few cultivators at the King Tao Realm. You and I are the young geniuses of Fairy Valley, destined to make our names known across the Nine Heavens. Should we fear the King Tao Realm?"
Bai Yisheng: "..."
At that moment, the young man also spoke up. "Senior Brother Yuan is right, but... Senior Brother Yuan, that Ancient Giant was running around earlier. Did it encounter something?"
He wasn’t as direct as Bai Yisheng, choosing to hint at it obliquely.
The Ancient Giant had suddenly become agitated. Could it mean a powerful enemy had invaded and disturbed it? This was worth pondering.
Yuan Qifeng was taken aback, then laughed heartily. "Soup Valley fell into the Heaven Martial Continent. It’s normal for the Ancient Giant to be restless; after all, it’s facing an unfamiliar environment. But isn’t it calm now?"
Indeed!
The Ancient Giant had been quiet for several hours.
The young man nodded and then added, "Neither the Three-eyed God Monkey nor the Sky Swallowing Python has made any move."
This was another statement that prompted deep thought.
In the face of an unfamiliar environment, it was normal for the Ancient Giant to become agitated, but why hadn’t the Three-eyed God Monkey and the Sky Swallowing Python stirred at all?
Wasn’t that abnormal?
Yuan Qifeng’s expression grew increasingly somber. He scoffed coldly, "If our little Junior Brother is scared, you’re welcome to stay here. I, however, will enter the Heaven Martial Continent to seek my opportunity."
The young man promptly shut his mouth.
But just then, a roar echoed from not far away.
It was the Ancient Giant.
This roar was not one of anger, but more like fear.
It’s happening again.
The group froze, their eyes fixed on that direction. They longed to investigate but feared being caught in the fallout.
However, the direction in which the Ancient Giant was stampeding was precisely where they were located.
Bai Yisheng and the others were petrified on the spot, especially Yuan Qifeng.
After coming to their senses, they quickly fled, arriving atop a tall mountain...
ROAR!
The Ancient Giant was incredibly fast. Its colossal size made the entire mountain range shake as it ran; the earth quaked and the mountains trembled as if the very land were about to collapse.
It was terrified.
Behind it, Zi Ji shouted, "Don’t run, Little Giant, come home with me!"
This time, they saw clearly.
A little girl was hunting the Ancient Giant.
Bai Yisheng, the young man, and Yuan Qifeng all stared, mouths agape and breathing hard, their eyes nearly popping from their sockets.
It’s her!
Bai Yisheng recognized Zi Ji. He had seen her in action at Salt Mountain when she descended via the Spirit Realm Altar. This little girl’s cultivation was extraordinary, completely different from ordinary people.
She had no discernible cultivation realm, yet she could effortlessly slay those far beyond her level.
Even now, her realm was completely undetectable.
She ran and shouted, her expression invigorated and her smile radiant. At a glance, she looked like an indomitable little demoness.
Anyone who saw this scene would be utterly astounded.
Good heavens! That’s an Ancient Giant! It stands hundreds of zhang tall, enormous in stature, with an extraordinary bloodline. Once it unleashes its power, it could easily slay even Lords. And yet, it’s being chased by a little girl!
Bai Yisheng gasped for air.
Yuan Qifeng instinctively swallowed.
The woman beside him asked, "Senior Brother, is the Heaven Martial Continent truly so dreadful?"
They were certain that the Zi Ji who had just appeared was from the Heaven Martial Continent, not the Nine Heavens Land.
Of course, they weren’t the only ones shocked; so too were the various factions, powerful experts, young geniuses, and others who had journeyed from afar on the Heaven Martial Continent.
At that moment, they all saw clearly that it was a little girl.
"Don’t run, Little Giant, come home with me!" Zi Ji shouted. "You have to be good, or else when my senior brother comes back, he’s going to spank your bottom!"
Yuan Qifeng was breathless. "She even has a senior brother."
"And my senior sister has a bad temper too..." Zi Ji added.
"Hmm, so there’s a senior sister too," the woman remarked. "Looking at her, she can’t be more than eleven or twelve years old, yet she’s chasing an Ancient Giant. Unbelievable."
Just how powerful was the sect she belonged to? And what heights had her senior brother and sister reached? Frightening! This Heaven Martial Continent is truly extraordinary.
Fortunately, the Ancient Giant was fast enough. Coupled with its familiarity with Soup Valley, it soon escaped Zi Ji’s pursuit.
Zi Ji, panting and out of breath, kept complaining, "Hey! Why are you running? Wouldn’t it be nice to come home with me?"
She scanned the area and, confirming she had lost it, didn’t hesitate for long before turning and heading in another direction.
This direction led straight to the Sky Swallowing Python.
The Fairy Valley geniuses felt a chill crawl up their spines.
「Elsewhere.」
Chen Shixian encountered a tall, slender monkey with a humanoid build, lush fur, and bright eyes. After sensing it, she concluded it was very likely a Spiritual Beast.
A joyful expression appeared on her face. Consequently, she and Zi Ji parted ways, and Chen Shixian eagerly gave chase. As she pursued the monkey, she gently coaxed, "Little monkey, do you eat bananas?"
Monkey: "???"
"Apples are fine too. Hmm, what fruit do you want? You can tell Big Sister," Chen Shixian said with a radiant smile, preparing to trick the monkey into following her back.
