“Is this the central area?”
Great Horse King watched the city, stunned.
It had an ancient air about it, but its walls were a mile high and had ridiculously tall buildings. Li Mo’s party looked like ants by comparison.
Li Mo nodded, “This is indeed a central city, Giant City.”
Leaving the savage beast’s forbidden area, Li Mo arrived at his last stop on Imperial Planet.
Giant City was what outsiders called this metropolis. In fact, the cities in the central area weren’t that many and all went by different names. But outsiders didn’t bother remembering their grand and long names, ending up calling them all Giant City for short. The only difference between one Giant City to another was their number.
Giant City, as the name implied, housed giants.
Dong~
Three hundred tall humanoids walked out of the city.
Great Horse King muttered, “Giants… and demons aren’t that friendly…”
“Same with humans.” Li Mo smiled at the giant squad, “Giants are a most prideful race. They don’t have any other races as friends. If they find us, it will lead to a large fight.”
“What fight? Have you looked at their feet? They can squash us to death.” The pig shivered.
“Piggy, why are you so scared? Are giants that amazing? Aren’t they just a bit taller? The bigger they are, the slower they move. If I fight them, they won’t even touch me.”
“Don’t flounce about and just do it if you say you can!”
Great Horse King looked up at the scorching sun and said, “The weather is a bit cold.”
“Wait here. I’ll be right back.”
Li Mo vanished.
Yan Wenjing held the Sun Saber stunned.
Not because of Li Mo’s vanishing act, but that these past days felt like she was in a different world.
She left Earth, walked on the Sun, traveled to a lighting planet, and now was on the Imperial Planet seeing so many strange races.
Just how many inhabitable planets existed in the vast stretches of space? How many odd races?
Li Mo came to the center of the city, before a grand palace.
This Giant City was the capital of the Giant Kingdom. Its actual name was The Best and Outstanding City, Ali Buda. Since it was way too long, they shortened it.
Two five hundred meter tall giant guards accosted him as he appeared before the lavish palace.
At that height, even their eyeballs were many times bigger than Li Mo. They towered before Li Mo, just as a human to an ant.
They skipped the small talk and instead jumped straight to attacking him.
With such a huge discrepancy in size, what need was of words to an ant?
Bam~
The two giants stomped.
The earth shook, causing a ten degree earthquake. Who said giants were slow? These two giants were as nimble as monkeys.
Ten stomps later, the palace was as perfect as before and even the ground was unmarred.
Li Mo was gone, though.
The giants were about to go when Li Mo jumped out of the ground.
The Giant City was built on fifty meter thick profound earth. It was incredibly tough, that not even the giants could damage it. And since it was earth, Li Mo used Earth Escape Art.
Bam~
The two giants stomped again.
Li Mo vanished.
“He’s hiding in underground!”
“Rotten bug!”
The giants were pissed. One of them made a sign and stomped.
But before he got to, Li Mo came out and hovered at eye level.
Rumble!
Under the devastating stomp, the profound earth rippled. If Li Mo was still down there, he’d be torn in pieces.
“I have come after a relic. Return to me humanity’s Investiture of the Gods and I’ll leave.”
“Damn bug, you dare speak to us?”
The giants started swatting him.
With the ground rippling, he couldn’t use the Earth Escape Art. The giants thought Li Mo was done for, but he blinked closer to their eyes and punched.
This was no Earth Fist or Heaven Fist. It was just your average punch, yet it packed enough power to crush the eye!
“Rotten bug, you hurt my eye! I’ll kill you!”
The giant tried grabbing Li Mo, but he was flying too fast.
“Ahhh~, I had enough!”
“Even if you ruin this place, just kill him already!”
“Kill!”
The two giants roared.
A fierce power shot from the giants and collided. The tremendous impact surpassed even the profound earth’s tolerance as it started to crumble.
This was a giant’s trait, sacred power. It only worked if two giants were of the same level and near each other. It had a tremendous destruction rate to anything around them.
“Rotten bug, taste our sacred power. I and Alidar are only in the sixth level but our combined sacred power can kill even a seventh level!”
“Pulverize him!”
The giants roared. The front of the palace looked to have been struck by a nuclear warhead.
“Go ahead.”
Li Mo was inside a giant’s ear as he said that.
“Where are you?”
“What, the bug is still alive?”
“He…”
“Ahhh…”
Li Mo screamed. With thousands of cultivation methods under his belt, the likes of Lion Roar Art or Tiger Howl Art he knew were in the dozens. The giant couldn’t take it and was knocked out on the spot.
Sacred power was awesome, but as long as one stuck to the giants, he’d be fine. It was a weakness Li Mo exploited smashingly.
With one giant out for the count, the sacred power stopped.
The other giant went into a rave, but then he heard Li Mo’s howl.
Rumble~
The other giant was down as well.
Li Mo touched down and walked into the palace.
The two giants were just the guards. The true danger laid inside.
“Investiture of the Gods is giant race’s sacred item. Man cub, you must have a death wish to step into the giants’ imperial palace!”
Li Mo chuckled as he walked deeper.
