Chapter 0798 Ice Mountain Giant Coffin

Chapter 0798: The Frozen Colossus Coffin

Jian Shitian's expression also changed drastically as he said to Bao Changshou, "Bao, protect these juniors. I'll go help!"

Lan Suyao cursed under her breath, "That’s what you get for gorging like animals! Now look what happened!"

Qin Yun also found it amusing. The moment those Demon Cultivators and beastkin descended, they had lunged at the headless, heartless giants like ravenous specters, tearing into them with frenzied hunger. But now, they had turned into this.

Keep in mind that among the Demon Cultivators and Ancient Remnants, there were many powerful figures—some even at the Half-Immortal or Emperor Wu-tier. Yet now, they had all transformed into grotesque, hulking giants.

These giants, their bodies bloated and enlarged, were drenched in blood, a horrifying sight.

Jian Shitian summoned his bonded sword and flung it forward from a distance, controlling it to slaughter the giants.

"Let me handle this!" Lan Suyao's eyes, which had been emitting white light, suddenly shifted to an eerie azure light.

The others quickly moved behind her, wary of being caught in the light.

Lan Suyao's holy gaze was indeed terrifying. Twin beams of intense radiance shot forth, washing over the hallway ahead.

The charging giants, struck by the blue light, slowed down but did not immediately turn to stone.

"Queen Su Yao, can you handle this? If not, just say the word, and we'll join forces to take them down!" Qin Yun shouted urgently.

"Can you even hold them off?" Lan Suyao said coldly. "They’ve suddenly gained powerful demonic bodies."

"Exactly. When I stabbed them with my sword, I found their bodies incredibly tough—hard to kill!" Jian Shitian's expression was grave. "Buying us time is help enough!"

"You go ahead. I'll stay here to slow them down!" Lan Suyao yelled. "With my current power, I can't turn them all to stone!"

"What about that Cube Eye you just got? Use it!" Qin Yun urged.

Lan Suyao quickly retrieved it.

The Cube Eye, glistening and meat-like, resembled a large round shield as she gripped it in her hand.

With a low shout, Lan Suyao channeled energy through the Cube Eye, releasing a scarlet ray of light.

Now, red and blue light merged together.

The horde of blood-drenched giants ahead suddenly dissolved, turning into a tide of viscera.

With a sickening splash!

As the giants liquefied, the churning crimson sludge surged violently down the corridor.

Everyone hovered midair, staring in horror at the seething blood-river below.

Lan Suyao stashed the Cube Eye away.

"That eye is truly something!" Qin Yun marveled.

The headless, heartless giants seated along the corridor suddenly stirred unnervingly after absorbing the massive blood flow.

"Advance, now! Get to the next area!" Lan Suyao shouted urgently upon seeing the giants stir.

By now, only a few hundred survivors were left.

Most of the Demon Cultivators and Ancient Remnants had mutated into giants earlier, only to be put down by Lan Suyao.

The headless and heartless giants were absorbing the blood, as if on the verge of awakening.

"It's all my fault—I shouldn't have let you use that square eye!" Qin Yun watched as the headless, heartless giants trembled slightly, wracked with guilt.

"If I hadn't used that move, I wouldn’t have been able to take down those fools so fast! What you need to do now is make sure we get out of here!" Lan Suyao said.

Their group soared swiftly above the vast corridor.

The headless, heartless giants were now able to stand up!

At this moment, they reached the end of the corridor.

Before them loomed a towering golden jade door.

"Little devil, can you open it?" Turtle Immortal urgently asked, as the giants in the corridor slowly advanced toward them.

Turtle Immortal was the sole survivor of his turtle clan—the rest, young and old, had transformed into giants after consuming the flesh of the giants.

Dozens of Mystic Rune Masters scrambled to decipher the door’s runes.

"There are no runes, and we can’t blast it open!" Jian Linglong said anxiously. "Qin Yun, do you have any ideas?"

Qin Yun tried various methods, but neither the Piercing Mystic Art nor the strange blood worked.

With no other options, Qin Yun quietly released Mo Mo, hiding her in his sleeve.

"Brother, this door has many runes. If I just damage a little, it should open!" Mo Mo said, unleashing an eerie power.

Qin Yun pressed his hand against the golden jade door and said to the others, "Fall back—I’ve got this. Just buy me time!"

The others quickly retreated.

Qin Yun had them move away to prevent them from detecting Mo Mo’s power.

Meanwhile, Lan Suyao unleashed blue light from her eyes, hindering the advance of the headless, soulless giants, though she could only reduce their speed.

"These giants must have been the ones who built this forbidden death city. After completing it, they were slaughtered!" Xiao Yuemei said. As someone who had lived a past life, she knew things others didn’t.

Qin Yun’s nerves were frayed, unsure of what lay beyond the door. If something monstrous lurked beyond, they were as good as dead.

"Queen Su Yao, watch my back!" Qin Yun said.

Lan Suyao’s blue light, even if it couldn’t petrify things, could still slow them down, offering at least some protection.

Jian Shitian, Bao Changshou, and the Half-Immortal Emperor Wu from the Profound Domain all hurled furious blasts of energy, driving back the lumbering headless giants.

The bodies of these five-headed behemoths were incredibly tough—even attacks from Half-Immortals hardly made a dent.

Countless giants pressed forward slowly, a crushing tide.

Standing several meters tall, thousands upon thousands packed the corridor, marching forward like an unstoppable tide, bearing down on them with crushing force.

Were it not for Lan Suyao and the Half-Immortals holding the line, these giants would have already reached them.

"What exactly are these things? How are they so terrifying?" Qin Yun’s blood ran cold.

Even Gui Yangjun, his striking face slick with sweat, trembled with fear—his entire herd of goat-men had been slaughtered.

"Kid, are you finished yet? Move it!" Turtle Immortal urged impatiently.

"This will take some time! You guys, the Mystic Rune Masters, know how difficult this door is to open, and my cultivation level is weak, so I need time. With so many of you, you can definitely hold them off!"

Qin Yun was also anxious, but Mo Mo's power was limited. She needed to damage several runes to completely break the seal on the door.

Lan Suyao whispered, "Don’t rush him. Let him work steadily! We can hold them off!"

Bao Changshou shouted, "Profound Domain folks, quit holding out on us! Use your real skills now, or we’ll all die!"

The people from the Profound Domain cursed inwardly, but given the situation, they had no choice but to go all out.

Sure enough, they took out some powerful Emperor-class talismans and hurled them into the crowd of giants.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Deafening blasts rocked the corridor, sending shockwaves rippling through.

The Half-Immortals on Qin Yun’s side used their power to block the impact, keeping them safe.

Dozens of giants were blown apart by the barrage of Emperor-class talismans.

"We’re tapped out! Your move!" the Profound Domain cultivators yelled.

Jian Shitian and Bao Changshou exchanged a glance before letting loose their own Emperor-class talismans.

Other Half-Immortal powerhouses from major factions also let loose their talismans.

Boom! Boom!

Another volley of explosions ripped through the headless giants, but it barely made a dent. Many were merely knocked down and could still advance.

Nobody expected the giants to be this damn tough—even Half-Immortals couldn’t take them down easily.

Only sword cultivators like Jian Shitian could slice through the giants’ legs like butter.

The Half-Immortal sword cultivators from the Sword Immortal Pavilion were only a handful. From a distance, they controlled their lifebound swords to slash at the giants’ thighs, buying them some time.

The giants shrouded in blue light moved slowly but kept inching forward.

Now, they were only a hundred meters from the gold-and-jade door!

"Yuemei, stay close to that lunatic Su Yao later!" Qin Yun suddenly sent a voice transmission to Xiao Yuemei.

"Brother, I’m staying with you!" Xiao Yuemei replied.

"Fine!" Qin Yun thought Lan Suyao was the strongest here, so staying near her was the best bet.

The giants were now just a few dozen meters away!

"It’s open!" Qin Yun suddenly shouted, then pulled Mo Mo back into the first bead of the Nine Sun Divine Pendant.

Several Emperor Wu cultivators immediately threw their weight into opening the gold-and-jade door.

As the door swung open, a flood of white light burst forth.

"Move it, inside now!" Lan Suyao shouted as she charged through the door.

The crowd swarmed in like a hive of bees.

After entering, they worked together to close the massive door.

Inside the golden jade door was an enormous hall, completely encased in ice.

The ice radiated an eerie white light!

Qin Yun suddenly thought of Bingxing.

When he'd freed her before, it had been just like this!

In other words, some fearsome entity was sealed within.

"There seems to be something inside that small ice mountain!" someone suddenly shouted.

Ahead stood a small ice mountain, white at first glance, but upon closer inspection, a dark shadow could be seen within.

The shadow appeared to be an upright black coffin of monstrous size.

The black coffin was several meters tall, seemingly built for a giant!

"Don’t open it!" Qin Yun immediately barked.

"What if there's treasure inside?" Turtle Immortal had already approached.

"Are you blind or what? Can’t you see it’s a giant’s coffin? The giants we faced outside were already so strong—whatever’s sealed here must be even more powerful!" Qin Yun shouted. "Don’t get yourselves killed!"

Turtle Immortal and the large group ignored Qin Yun, the fools, certain it wasn’t a coffin but a giant treasure chest.
