Chapter 327: Rage Giant + Explosive Pose = Red Dog Panicked

In the thick of the battle.

The rampaging golden giant moved with astonishing speed, darting back and forth like a flash.

The red dog, who had been sent flying, had barely bounced off the jieyu barrier when he was snatched up again by the giant's palm.

As the five fingers clenched tightly, blood and flesh splattered from between them.

A twisted, painful smile appeared on Hong Gou’s face.

His laughter was chillingly eerie.

Even though his body was on the verge of being crushed to pieces, his eyes burned with sheer excitement.

The pain seemed to stimulate him, pushing his emotions to an extreme peak.

Gasping for air, his memories appeared jumbled, and he muttered incessantly:

"Oh."

"No, this won't do, it's not allowed, Black Snake Lord, Black Snake... heh, hehehe..."

Suddenly, his eyes widened in a frenzy as he roared with a savage grin.

"Ah."

"Sorry, I forgot, you're already dead!!"

With a thunderous boom, Hong Gou, who had just roared, was slammed into the ground by the giant’s casual strike.

The tables had turned; now it was his turn to shatter the floor and bounce away like a ball.

Xu Xiaoshou, transformed into the golden giant, brought his palms together.

A vertical wave of void energy rippled out like a disk capable of slicing the sun, piercing straight through Hong Gou’s jieyu.

In that instant, everyone outside could clearly see a golden energy disk expanding from the storm’s center, instantly tearing the surrounding buildings to shreds.

Chong Dong's figure shot forward, his speed surging even higher.

"Damn it!"

From just that single strike, he could foresee how many lives had been lost nearby.

The Wangzuo war was now inevitable.

Because he had personally witnessed a golden giant figure flash within the jieyu as it cracked open.

He couldn't see the other person, but that terrifying, violent pressure was something he had never encountered in all his years.

"Wangzuo lingji?"

Chong Dong’s heart was shaken; that golden giant looked utterly fearsome.

Yet, he was still somewhat uncertain.

Why, with such a terrifying lingji, did the wielder’s aura feel somewhat weak?

"Xiantian?"

He instantly dismissed the idea.

How could a Xiantian level fighter be battling a Wangzuo?

When the jieyu opened, there had to be a Wangzuo inside.

And since he only saw one Xiantian golden giant, didn’t that mean the invisible Wangzuo had been completely overpowered?

What nonsense!

Chong Dong shook his head, casting aside the absurd thought, and raced toward the battle’s center like the wind.

This fight had to end immediately!

The jieyu sealed itself shut.

This was the self-repair attribute unique to a Wangzuo’s jieyu—unless another Wangzuo arrived, it was nearly impossible to break through as long as the owner didn’t want it opened.

Incredibly, the rampaging giant’s attacks suddenly halted.

This was almost unthinkable.

After all, once Xu Xiaoshou transformed into the rampaging giant, he temporarily lost control of his consciousness—so why had it stopped?

At the center point where the golden palms were joined, a sound finally emerged. Upon closer inspection, it was Hong Gou, wrapped in lingyuan, forcing his way out from between them!

"Xu Xiaoshou... hahaha, Xu Xiaoshou!"

Hong Gou roared ferociously.

His face was completely obscured, reduced to nothing but blood.

He probably never imagined that his mission this time would end in such a disastrous state.

Bleeding was one thing, but he’d been knocked from the sky to the ground and then slapped between the palms of this mere Xiantian fighter!

"You're finished!"

"Right now, even if the heavens themselves came, they couldn't save you!"

Hong Gou bellowed in rage. He could sense that Xu Xiaoshou’s power wasn’t his own.

This energy, erupting at the cost of losing consciousness, meant that if he sealed off the jieyu, Xu Xiaoshou might never find him again.

But was that possible?!

Anyone who had been smashed from the sky, trampled, and slapped repeatedly would be furious beyond reason.

Hong Gou was now desperate to drag Xu Xiaoshou out of the golden giant, flay him piece by piece, and tear him to shreds!

How could he wait even a few more minutes?

Once that time passed, he could still kill him, but where would that leave his pent-up rage?

"Xiantian!"

"I never thought a Xiantian like you could erupt with power surpassing Zongshi!"

Hong Gou braced himself with both hands as Tiandao force empowered his body. Even without a Zongshi physique, the mighty power of the great dao forcibly pushed back the overwhelming force.

He sneered and said, "But so what if you surpass Zongshi power?"

"Your realm is lacking, so you'll never kill me!"

"Today, I'll show you the power of a Wangzuo..."

"Roar!" Before he could finish, Xu Xiaoshou let out a sudden furious roar that, at such close range, nearly shook Hong Gou’s very soul loose.

Accompanying the roar, the golden giant exploded with scattered golden light points like stars in the sky—that was...

The explosive stance!

Hong Gou’s words cut off, his face turning deathly pale in an instant.

He felt the surging, immense force erupting once more from Xu Xiaoshou’s hands. That explosive power merged with the golden giant's primal rage, causing it to swell a second time!

In a flash, it shattered his Tiandao force completely!

In that moment, Hong Gou admitted...

He was panicking!

"Received fear, passive value, 1."

With a rumbling sound, Xu Xiaoshou’s palms clamped down fiercely, snapping Hong Gou’s arms and once again squeezing him into the golden flesh wall between his hands.

As his fingers gripped tight, the figure inside burst like a splattering insect, emitting a disgusting, thick, squelching noise.

"Guh."

Hong Gou: ???

He felt his consciousness fragment and go blank for a split second.

Even with the constant empowerment of Tiandao force, he still experienced that long-forgotten sensation of severe injury in that single grip.

His internal organs were compressed, his bones misaligned—this was a level of heavy injury he hadn't felt in years.

"It's just a Xiantian..."

Hong Gou’s heart was filled with bitterness and horror. At first, he hadn’t taken it seriously, but after the turning point of the "Tian Ci" technique, he had been hit with a relentless combo.

Even with the slightest opening, he wouldn't have ended up like this!

"I'm a Wangzuo!!!"

Hong Gou's mentality shattered.

But his thoughts didn't last long as Xu Xiaoshou's "explosive stance" terrifying effect erupted.

Amid several thunderous booms, it directly battered Hong Gou until his body fell apart!

The golden palms quickly parted, and in the sudden rush of wind, a whistling sound filled the air.

The moment Hong Gou broke free from the golden palms' grasp, his heart leaped with joy—he realized this was his chance.

As long as he seized this fleeting opportunity, he could gain the upper hand and strike first from the giant!

However, he had miscalculated...

The wind from Xu Xiaoshou's parting palms sucked the air dry, briefly suspending Hong Gou's body in midair.

When he regained his senses, all he could see was Xu Xiaoshou's massive golden head and, in front of its mouth, a trembling black-golden...

Energy bead!

Hong Gou: ???

"No, don't..."
