The Geared Immortal

Chapter 652

(Unedited)

…

Black swirling blades in both hands and a sinister expression on his old face. The powerful nascent realm old man from the Black Mountain School suddenly appears behind the giant in silence. Even those who are watching this scene didn't know how this old man did it. However, this is his innate ability a skill, he has cultivated for many years and has now trained to perfection.

Without a trace, he appears behind the giant and with a swift movement, he immediately slices through the giant's neck. The other old men are smiling upon seeing this scene and they are sure that their victory is at hand.

Each of them knew that if the strike connects then a severed head would fall and the talisman on the old man's hand would absorb the remaining energy from the corpse. And with that, they would be able to at last leave this cursed place.

He is already thinking of the things that he would be able to see outside this desert land. The green forest, the exotic animals, and the Qi rich environment are the things he would always dream about.

However, those traders would not let them ride those huge flying ships. And they would just rely on the stories from the laborers of those traders.

And now, he will have a chance. A chance of a new life and all he has to do is to, severe the head of this giant, and then he would get his dreams to come true.

This is the reason for the expression of the old man to change, a combination of excitement, nervousness, and intent to kill.

Shin Jiao was also astounded at the skill that this old man is showing. It was really something else. He could not even detect the presence of the old man. It was as if he vanished in thin air or even space itself.

Then the attack came.

Everyone is now showing a dumbfounded look on their faces.

This is because the giant whose head was supposed to be decapitated suddenly caught the chakram with his bare hand.

The old man immediately feels the strong suction force.

With panic in his eyes, he immediately brandishes his other chakram for another attack.

"Damn you! Just die!"

However, the giant actually caught the other chakram with his other arm.

"This is bad, he caught the weapons! Attack! Everyone, attack with all of your might!" Kai Xian shouted as he immediately rushes towards the giant.

They all knew the consequences and the hope in their eyes suddenly vanished.

Shin Jiao on the other hand also felt a bit conflicted. He knew of the danger and knew that he has to act. However, how could he let go of the array? If he did, then the ceiling might collapse and…

Shin Jiao then had a glint of craftiness in his eyes. Though he had been living in this chaotic world for a long time now, he just couldn't let go of the notion that human lives are important.

And so, with that resolution, he did not hesitate anymore and suddenly wave his hand after letting go of the array formation support. Then he immediately shot two bullets towards the old man.

With the array not having enough power, it collapses under the weight of the ruined ceiling.

By this time, the five people in the middle of the battle have already clashed. Using the old man as a weapon, the giant intended to flail him to the rest of the pesky humans surrounding him. But then he stops as a sudden tremor interrupted his attention.

Suddenly, before he could react he immediately noticed two fast flying objects. The giant wanted to react, but it was too late. The projectiles powered by the black and white energy is faster than regular bullets.

And as they hit the arms of the old man, the Qi field surrounding his body was immediately negated, and the Qi enhanced skin was easily torn apart by the bullets.

When the giant saw this, he immediately knew that it was all a trap. He wanted to retract the skill, but it was too late. He could feel a powerful recoil inside his dantian and his core which already has a hairline crack now gets multiple of them.

Ka-Boom!

Kai Xian already saw this and knew that there would be an explosion, but he did not stop, unlike the others. He actually continues to thrust his sword towards the giant's chest.

Before anyone could know it, the explosion happened and the whole place began to crumble burying everyone inside the chamber.

Shin Jiao on the side showed a faint smile on his face.

But then he noticed that from above multiple figures began surging towards the rubble.

Shin Jiao did not wait and immediately hid his presence.

Above the ground, everyone saw the Practice Hunting Ground of the city suddenly collapsing. The people were watching from afar starting the time when the large pillar of light appears. No one dares to walk closer as they thought that there is a powerful monster attacking the hunting ground.

However, when there were multiple smaller lights rays and elemental attacks appearing, they knew that there is something wrong inside it. Hence those soldiers and powerful cultivators from the town immediately assembled and run towards this place.

And before they could arrive, they suddenly saw felt a huge explosion of Qi energy and then the ground began crumbling.

Nobody knew what had happened, nobody except for the clan higher-ups of the two clans involved and the two schools. They knew that there might be something wrong and that their great ancestors might be in trouble.

Upon arriving at the scene all they could see is sunken ground and the ruins. They could even see the beasts suddenly escaping the ground in panic. Some went to the desert, while others enter some concrete tunnels.

"Damn… what happened here?" said one of the elders.

But no one answered his words. Everyone is feeling a bit confused and at the same time curious. This is true especially when they noticed the large tunnels which have now been revealed in front of their eyes.

But before they could do anything, they suddenly noticed many figures coming out from those tunnels. Those figures look like people wearing some weird armor. However, what made everyone awestruck were the tails behind those people.

The two races saw each other but no one dare do anything. All they did was look at each other all of their defenses are up.

Mengyao Xian who is among the group suddenly took a step forward. Then he raised his hand high up and asked in the language of the Li'angs.

With his intelligence, Mengyao Xian was able to learn the language of the Li'angs. Hence he is able to talk to them, though not fluently, yet enough to be understood by the other party.

"What happened? Are the human elders fine?" he asked in a loud voice.

The humans behind him showed an incredulous look at the young man talking in a weird manner. But the Li'angs threw a cautious glance at the handsome young man.

In reply, one of the Li'ang guards wearing a black flak jacket-like suit, step forward with a stern look on his face.

���We don't know… it was all chaotic. But I think because of the battle, the whole chamber collapsed."

The Li'angs was monitoring everything inside the chamber. However, when the extreme battle started, all of the monitoring instruments were ruined. The only monitoring device they would use is the one on the passage towards the chamber.

For some unknown reason, they could vaguely see a figure but they are not sure what it was. They all witness vaguely what happened inside and how the, supposed to be, god massacred the scientist who revived him.

They needed the human to provide resources for the revival of their fallen god. And now, they are in despair as they knew that instead of resurrecting a god, they actually revived a demon.

However, for some unknown reason, the ceiling collapsed and burry those powerful beings inside the chamber. And this made the Li'ang people who are monitoring the situation heaves a sigh of relief.

Upon hearing the vague answer from the Li'ang Mengyao Xian frowns. He didn't like what he heard and wanted to check for himself.

Hence he turns around to face the crowd behind him.

However, before he could say anything the ground began to tremor once again. Then suddenly the ground exploded.

Crash!

Something large from within the earth suddenly flew upwards sending many rocks, dirt, and other kinds of debris flying.

When everyone saw that huge giant figure they were all taken aback. This is true especially to the people from the town of Vermillion Gem.

All they could see suddenly floating in the air is a naked human giant and on his hand is an old man. They could also see a long sharp sword embedded on that giant's stomach with its blade protruding on the other side of his large body.

Everyone immediately showed fear in their eyes. This is because they suddenly discover that they could not gauge the cultivation level of the giant. The suffocating aura around him is making everyone afraid. Those women in the crowd suddenly shifted their gaze to the other side as they didn't want to see a naked giant in front of them.

But then out of all the people in the crowd, a few of them showed desperation in their eyes. This is because they actually recognize that old man in the giant's hands. Although he and the giant both showed a sorry figure, everyone who knew him could still recognize Kai Xian.

"Grand ancestor!" shouted a few of the people in the crowd.

They are all taking out their weapons and getting ready to rescue their grand ancestor in the hands of the giant. Mengyao Xian who is among the crowd suddenly showed hostility and killing intent in his eyes. His previous composed demeanor suddenly changed into one of anger and desire to kill.

"Great grandfather! You… you beast! Unhand him now or I will let you taste my blade!"
