555 The Giant Race
Even the weakest among them had thousand-mile-long Dao paths, and there were over a dozen of Nine Extreme Daoyuan realm experts.
Other than their huge and tough bodies, the giants were no different from humans in other aspects.
This was the race that had helped the humans of the nine zones and taught them body-tempering techniques in the past. However, their current relationship with the human race was uncertain.
In the nine zones, there were now very few cultivators who focused on body tempering. Du Yuan and the little evil king were among these few.
The giant race was different from the other races. They did not seem to be a part of the races of the Ancient Chaos World, or the races of the nine zones. They were also relatively neutral when it came to stances..
In the current chaotic situation, it was impossible to remain neutral without enough power.
Chu Xuan observed them in detail.
Even the bodies of the weaker ones were extremely terrifying, and would require an offensive supreme artifact to crack.re.
At the center of the giant race’s territory, there were several enormous stone houses.
In the center of the ancestral ground, there was a huge statue.
There seemed to be terrifying beasts lying dormant in the huge stone houses, and their aura was abnormally fierce. When Chu Xuan took a look inside, he saw a giant, though much smaller than he had imagined.
It was obvious that the other party had shrunk his body.
This particular giant seemed to be no weaker than a World Creator realm expert. Armed with a supreme treasure, he would probably be able to go toe-to-toe with the World Creator realm experts of the immortal and celestial races.
The Dao paths of the giant race were rather special, as they were unable to create a world to support the foundation of their Dao paths. Instead, their incredibly sturdy bodies became the foundation of their Dao paths, which further strengthened their bodies.
When Chu Xuan looked at the other stone houses, he found a giant comparable to a World Creator realm expert in each one. It seemed that there was a good reason the giant race had managed to remain neutral and untouched.
However, he did not know if these experts of the giant race had always been in the Ancient Chaos World or had just returned from the chaos.
If the giant race only had these few powerful experts, they would not be as strong as the immortal, celestial, and demon races.
Chu Xuan knew that the experts who had returned from the three major races were the weaker ones. The stronger ones were all in the depths of the chaos and had yet to return. Still, the fact that the giant race had the confidence to stay neutral meant that they had something backing them up.
Perhaps there was an extremely powerful expert in the giant race who could intimidate all of the other races.
Just as Chu Xuan was about to move the mirror’s image projection away from the giant race’s territory, he suddenly noticed that the statue in the ancestral ground seemed a little unusual.
He immediately zoomed in.
The statue was a giant with bulging muscles and a resolute face. He held a big hammer over his head and looked forward as if he was staring at an enemy.
Chu Xuan could sense that this giant statue was unusual.
It was like a Dao path had condensed within that statue.
The materials used to make the statue were also unusual. Even ordinary Daoyuan realm cultivators would not be able to destroy it.
Was it a statue of an ancestor of the giant tribe?
Was it just a statue?
The more Chu Xuan looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong. He took a closer look.
Even if the statue was made of a special material, it could not block the probing of the Chaos Dao Mirror.
However, at this moment, a terrifying and powerful force suddenly emerged from within the statue, blocking it.
Chu Xuan also noticed that the giant hammer in the statue’s hand moved slightly when this power appeared.
The statue was alive?
Chu Xuan did not continue to probe, but used the Heavenly Secrets Origin Probing technique instead.
“Tai, one of the 18 ancestors of the giant race. He is severely wounded and is hibernating to recover.”
The statue was one of the ancestors of the giant race.
Were the experts of the giant race aware of his existence and presence?
Was he secretly recovering here to avoid a strong enemy?
Chu Xuan tried to figure out Tai’s strength. Although the Heavenly Secrets Origin Probing technique was limited, he gained a basic understanding of Tai’s strength.
He was no weaker than someone who’s created world was millions of miles in diameter. Normally, this meant that his Dao path had to be at least five to six million miles long.
At his peak, he was even a little stronger than the Chu Xuan was currently.
Of course, if it was a real battle in the nine zones, Chu Xuan was confident that he could win easily. After all, that was his home ground.
Just as Chu Xuan was about to move the image projection away, a thought transmission came from the statue.
With Tai’s strength, it was not unusual for him to notice that he was being watched.
“Who is spying on me?”
Chu Xuan pondered for a moment and decided to have a chat with the other party.
“Tai?”
He transmitted his thoughts through the Chaos Dao Mirror.
The moment Chu Xuan replied, it was as if a force was trying to track him.
However, it was not enough to break through the Chaos Dao Mirror’s concealment abilities, especially when Chu Xuan infused it with the power of his Dao path.
Perhaps that strange existence from the chaos abyss might have been able to, but Tai could not.
“That’s me,” Tai replied after discovering that he was unable to lock on to Chu Xuan’s location.
“Who are you, and why are you spying on me?”
“I have no ill intentions. I’m just curious. Who could have injured you like this?”
Tai remained silent.
“Tai, how long have you been recuperating here?”
“If you want to take advantage of me, then just try it!”
“Don’t worry, I am a good person. I won’t do such a despicable thing.”
“You’re from the human race? Chu?”
Tai’s voice suddenly changed.
Chu Xuan called himself a good person. Normally, only humans would say that.
There were only one or two people in the entire human race who had such strength.
Chu?
Which ancestor of the human race was he?
Was that the name of the first person to create a human cultivation technique, or another ancestor of the human race?
It was rumored that that person had some grudges with the giant race.
Chu Xuan did not answer directly, but said, “Tai, do you need any help? I have a supreme treasure that can help you recover.”
“I can’t accept the kindness of the human race!”
Tai snorted coldly.
It was obvious that he held resentment toward the human race.
Chu Xuan did not know what exactly had happened that had caused the relationship between the giant race and the human race to deteriorate.
