Chapter 273: Investiture of the Gods

On the giant throne in the giant palace sat a giantess with a crown on her giant hairdo. She was black as night and had growths over her face. A human would instantly label her one ugly broad. But since this was the Giant Kingdom, the queen was the picture of beauty in giant culture.

There was no king here, and the queen earned her right to rule by voting. The giants only picked the most beautiful giantess as their queen.

Giants could live up to ten thousand years and they were also strong. Although their cultivation talent lacked compared to humans, they had their long lives to make up for it. They had quite a lot of powerful members in the seventh, eight and even ninth level.

There were tenth levels giants as well, of course, just that these giants received the world’s restriction and couldn’t move as they wished across the universe. 

The giant queen was in her 8120ties and peak eight level.

It was her voice from earlier that was heard.

On each side towered twenty 700 meter tall giants in the seventh and eight level. They were the royal guards.

Behind the queen hanged a small tablet, humanity’s sacred item – Investiture of the Gods!

Investiture of the Gods was a Heavenly Court relic. Legend had it the Heavenly Court’s lord used chaos qi as the primer, inviting thirty six God Emperors of other races to refine for a thousand years before completing it.

Investiture of the Gods’s power was a rarity in the world. It depicted the names of all the universe’s strongest from the past, present and even future. 

Of course, this was only its basic function. There was another great secret revolving around it. But since the past Li Mo never touched it, he had no clue to what that might be.

“Investiture of the Gods is a sacred item our giant God Emperor refined. It has nothing to do with you humans. Man cub, your boldness is irksome.”

The queen snorted and pointed, shooting a tyrannical power at Li Mo.

Li Mo punched, and from the collision he had to withdraw three steps.

The queen was shocked. An attack from her could kill even a peak seventh level. Li Mo was only peak sixth level yet was fine.

“Fortune of Heaven and Earth Body? You know humanity’s ancestral cultivation method?” The queen’s eyes shined.

“Ha-ha-ha, I wanted to kill you, but now I changed my mind. Many ancestors of mine have looked for humanity’s ancestral cultivation method for billions of years, and yet here it is, falling right into my lap!

“Man cub, kneel!”

The queen pointed and an immense power slammed into him. Li Mo only raised a hand.

“Such a powerful body, but I’m only getting started.

“Try two fingers!”

The queen did just that, but Li Mo still held one hand up.

“Amusing.

“Three fingers!

“Four!

“All ten then!”

Li Mo now used both his hands.

The joy the queen felt at this was palpable. The stronger Li Mo appeared the more exuberant she became, because this proved the humanity’s ancestral cultivation method was genuine.

“What are you standing around for! Attack!” The queen barked.

She had no notion of honor or how the strong fought one on one. There was strength in numbers after all.

The twenty royal guards started adding their own pressure.

Li Mo strained, “Queen, if I can still take it, can I have the Investiture of the Gods?”

“Ha-ha-ha, of course you can. But if you can’t, do speak up. If you die, there won’t be any humanity’s ancestral cultivation method left.”

“No worries.”

“Together!”

The royal guards and the queen increased the pressure on Li Mo at once. The thick and strong profound earth was the first to give and Li Mo started sinking.

He sank a full twenty meters and yet he was still fine.

The 21 giants grew tired, with the queen the first to step back and gasp for breath.

“I-is your body really made from the humanity’s ancestral cultivation method?”

Li Mo shook his head, “That art can only increase one’s body strength and toughness, but not this much.”

He used Earth Fist’s Guard, becoming one with the earth. Regardless of how deadly the 21 giants’ power was, they were no match for the Imperial Planet.

“I don’t believe you. Again!”

The queen roared.

“Use everything you have. It’ll be fine even if he dies!

“Giants are never to be humiliated. Who the hell cares of your ancestral cultivation method. Just die!”

As the giants were raving, they unleashed their all on Li Mo.

Half an hour later, all giants couldn’t move a finger. And Li Mo, he was just peachy.  

Li Mo flew to Investiture of the Gods and put it in his ring.

The queen shouted weakly, “That’s my race’s sacred item. You can’t take it!”

“It won’t help you even if you take it. You can’t open it!”

“Put it down! Our fight isn’t over.”

“I’m almost back to full strength. Let’s continue!”

“The fight isn’t over, where are you going?”

“Man cub, stop!”

The giants shouted their lungs out, not that Li Mo cared.

If it came down to blades instead, Li Mo wouldn’t be their match to even the queen, not to mention the royal guards as well.

Fortunately, the giants were hard as wood, both in body and mind.

The thought of Li Mo pulling a fast one on them never occurred to them. They were under the impression Li Mo used his raw power to win.

Of course, if giants were sharper, Li Mo wouldn’t even be stepping foot here in the first place.

“In the past, the Investiture of the Gods feel into Blood Demon’s hands. But this time it is finally mine.”

Li Mo sighed, walking out as the scenery twisted around him.

Seeing Li Mo pop out of nowhere scared the hell out of Great Horse King.

Li Mo said, “My business on Imperial Planet is over. Time to head back!”
