Chapter 677: Battle of the Ancient Giants (Part 2)
This headless giant's hair stood on end, going completely berserk, driving the monstrous aura, and attacked an Ancient Clan member on a dragon boat!
"Pfft!"
Without any suspense, this punch went through the tall body of the Ancient Clan member, and that enormous physique broke a hole on the spot, was blown dozens of kilometers away, and the scent of blood was everywhere.
The white jade floor was stained with blood, blood poured down like torrential rain from the sky.
The scene was immediately out of control!
This development was unexpected!
The surrounding civilizations suddenly buzzed with astonishment, all knowing the Ancient Races were violent by nature, but never thought they would kill upon resurrection — but that the headless giant actually opposed the blood sacrifice, was simply inconceivable!
Even the Dragon Emperor paused in surprise.
Such madness was beyond his wildest imagination.
Yet it wasn't over; to the possessors of "Infinite Qi," the scent of blood was like an oasis in the desert!
The other sixteen immediately had reddened eyes, fixating on the corpse, pouncing upon it madly!
They had just revived, inherently lacking reason, only standing firm through willpower.
The blood qi of the Ancient Clan members was basically a great nourishment, a timely assistance.
Even the headless giant who acted just now, the head in his belly, lips trembled, lurking desires, reason, and temptation intertwined.
But very quickly, he solidified his resolve, roaring loudly: "What business of blood sacrifice should be destroyed!"
"Such a rule should not exist in this world."
"I should have died long ago, you all should die too, what is the point of clinging to life in this world?!"
He acted again, a red light flashed, and that corpse suddenly ignited!
All the blood qi evaporated, the flesh burned to charcoal, dense black smoke soared into the sky, resembling a crying face.
[You want to make enemies of us all? Then we shall kill you first.]
The Dragon Emperor's scales stood up, the twin horns atop his head glowed, holding a divine weapon in his hand, named "Kanglong Mace."
This was a mythical item forged from the spine of the already fallen Innate Myth "Candle Dragon", with the power to cleave space.
The other 16 owners of Infinite Qi, finding the fine offering destroyed, became more frenzied, wanting to unleash slaughter.
[Esteemed ones, do not be disturbed. We have gifts to offer.]
Some Innate Myth strongmen from other Great Clans faintly confronted them, while presenting a jar of red fluid and made them drink it.
After consuming this liquid, their reason improved somewhat.
Only the headless giant continued his sinister laughter: "Your Evil Dragon Clan's loaches dare act impudently here, do you even qualify?"
"You only deserve to kneel and lick grandpa's toes!"
"And you, ha, a gang of petty thieves! Come on, fight me to your heart's content!"
He actually wanted to challenge everyone else alone!
The crowd's expressions changed drastically, a major flaw exposed in the Ancient Race's plan!
Originally thought the revived "Infinite Qi" holders were strong reinforcements, yet unexpectedly a maverick appeared, wanting to slaughter everyone.
Lu Yuan was slightly surprised in his heart: "Ancient times were chaotic, but heroes and warriors existed..."
This was entirely normal; each era had people like this.
Especially in the First Epoch where personal heroism was rampant, idealists would inevitably appear.
But a single strongman could change small matters, though it was inconsequential to the greater picture... to truly change the world, institutional construction was needed.
As of now, the blood sacrifice rules were significantly weakened, effectively restrained.
Surrounding civilizations also realized this, each somewhat moved.
Internal strife erupted right away, the majesty of the Ancient Races invisibly weakened considerably.
After a while, the Ancient Races figured out the headless giant's name and origins, getting a grasp of the situation.
[[Xing], though you possess 'Infinite Qi', that doesn't mean I fear you.] The Dragon Emperor stepped forward, holding the "Kanglong Mace", the rod covered with eye-like features, each opening and closing, their imperceptible gaze able to freeze souls.
His posture was majestic, as the joint leader of the Five Great Races, knowing that this guy must be suppressed, otherwise things would end in disaster.
"Heh, I don't know how many loaches like you I've slain before, one more makes no difference! Axe come forth!" the headless giant roared furiously.
Instantly, the earth trembled, the white jade tiles shattered, and he pulled out a stone axe, and a thick stone shield from the ground.
"Boom!"
Without further ado, the headless giant swung down his axe, the furious strike whistling, the air trembling incessantly, seemingly capable of shattering space!
The Dragon Emperor's expression subtly changed, theoretically, a purely Innate Myth could not match an Infinite Qi possessor in combat prowess.
But these strongmen had just resurrected, long since without blood sacrifices, their mental states poor, hence providing an opportunity for victory.
He raised the Kanglong Mace, its jet-black radiance piercing the heavens.
The Kanglong Mace suddenly grew in size, countless eyes simultaneously opening, piercing into the soul!
"Clang!"
Their weapons clashed, the mountain-like hefty axe being a temporary makeshift weapon, instantly turned into scorching magma, bursting apart.
The power of mythical-level weapons was extraordinary!
The headless giant retreated several steps.
He immediately raised the stone shield in hand, and in the blink of an eye, the Kanglong Mace smashed into the shield again!
