"Ding … you have levelled up to LV21, HP + 20, MP + 20, Strength + 5, Agility + 1, Spirit + 1."
"Ding … you have levelled up to LV22 …"
… …
"Ding … you have levelled up to LV25 …"
"Ding … your pet 'Little Gray' has levelled up to LV25, HP + 200, MP + 5, Defence + 20."
"Ding … your pet 'Little Gray's' skill 'Holy Spirit's Aura' has levelled up to LV6."
"Ding … your pet 'Leng' Er 'has levelled up to LV25, MP + 100, Magic Attack Power + 20, Defence + 10."
After killing a Heaven's End grade Boss 10 levels above him, the amount of EXP he received was astronomical. In the blink of an eye, Ling Chen's level rose from LV20 to LV25. Little Gray and Leng 'Er's levels also rose, and they both rose to LV25. If it wasn't for the Heaven's Jealousy debuff, the speed at which their levels rose would have been even more shocking.
As the system announcements continuously sounded out, Ling Chen should have been incredibly excited. But at this moment, all of his consciousness was filled with shock … Amidst the flying rubble, the body of the mountain giant that he had destroyed was now completely intact. Soon, even the broken arms and limbs gradually regained their shape, becoming more and more complete. In just a few breaths of time, the arms and legs had already regenerated …
The destroyed Mountain Giant stood up, completely undamaged, and stood in front of Ling Chen. There were no longer any scars on its body. The oppressive might it exuded was thousands of times greater than that of the Mountain Giant.
The miracle that he had created with Tian Tian's power had been completely destroyed by the Mountain Giant's perfect reconstruction. Not only was the reborn Mountain Giant not damaged, but it was even more powerful. A LV100 Heaven's End grade Boss … even if Tian Tian gave him another 'Elegy of the Gods', he wouldn't be able to resist it.
Next to the reborn Mountain Giant's feet, the spoils of war that it had dropped flashed with various lights. However, Ling Chen could only stand there motionlessly, unable to move forward. In his extreme shock, he almost forgot their existence.
Raising his head, Ling Chen stared blankly at the huge body that was a hundred meters tall. Feeling the vast power coming from it, Ling Chen's forehead was full of cold sweat, and he gritted his teeth … Ten thousand times he wanted to throw the entire family of the person who designed this boss into the pigsty, and let them be rotated a hundred and eight thousand times! The Sigh of the Earth God was like a stick that smashed him from heaven to hell.
A feeling of being watched came from above. Ling Chen knew that it was the Mountain Giant's gaze. Ling Chen took a deep breath. Just as he was about to make his move, a voice suddenly came from above him.
"After sleeping for so many years, I finally woke up. The sky was still the same, and the ground was still the same. The berserk demon's aura in the west had disappeared. Apart from that, I couldn't see any other changes. Should I be happy or sad? "
The voice was very old and full of vicissitudes. The content of the words was not offensive at all. Instead, it was purely self-lamenting. Ling Chen's brows twitched, and he raised his head.
"I didn't expect that the one who forced me to wake up was a human. I thought that it would be that restless demon in the mountains in the west. A human, and a young human at that. It is indeed impressive that you were able to destroy my body just now. However, this land is a place that I have guarded for the rest of my life. For an important reason, I will not allow any foreign lifeforms to enter. So, please leave this place. I don't want to harm any lifeforms. "
The Mountain Giant had also spoken before, and the content was only four words: "Leave this place." What followed was a merciless pursuit and attack.
This reborn Mountain Giant did not attack him. Instead, it spoke in the human language, speaking to him like an old human. Ling Chen immediately understood what was going on, and his heartstrings began to relax. He took a few steps back, and said, "Mountain Giant … This is your true body?"
"That's right," the Mountain Giant replied. The Mountain Giant replied, "My life carries the last of the Earth God Titan's power and soul. In order to prevent the last vestiges of the Earth God from gradually dissipating, I chose to bury my own life and power core and enter a deep slumber, using the excess power that I had absorbed over the years to support my body and protect this place for me, driving away all outsiders. If this body was destroyed, then it means that I encountered a powerful invader, and that is why I woke up. Unknowingly, many years have passed. It was you who woke me up. "
Ling Chen raised his eyebrows … The power just now was actually just a part of the Mountain Giant's excess power! Just how terrifying was its true power?
"Then … what have you been guarding all this time?" Ling Chen probed.
"I have been guarding a race, a proud, kind, simple, and intelligent race. Their appearance is the fortune of the Moon God Continent, and their ability is enough to change the entire continent in a short period of time. However, they have suffered the most unfair treatment. This race can no longer be harmed, nor can they disappear from the Moon God Continent. So, I want to protect them. This is my answer. As for other information, I can't tell you, so don't ask me anymore. Human, you already know the reason, so please leave. You don't have any evil aura on you. Perhaps you just entered this place by accident, so I won't hurt you. However, if you insist on going forward, I can only take other actions. "
Guarding … a race?
Wait! Could it be the "mysterious tribe" that Su 'Er had mentioned?!
An orb was in the "palace" of that race!
There really was a "tribe" here, and everything was becoming more and more consistent. If Su 'Er's information was completely correct, and if the "mysterious tribe" was really the one that this Mountain Giant was guarding, then he definitely couldn't leave! For Shui Ruo, for that mysterious orb, he had to go in no matter what!
"Mountain Giant, I can't leave. Although this is the land that you are guarding, I have my reasons as well, "Ling Chen said as he raised his head.
"Oh?" The Mountain Giant's voice was still calm, "Then, what is your reason?"
"I want to find something, something that is even more important than my life. That thing is definitely in the place that you are guarding. "Ling Chen tried to make his voice as calm as possible.
"Find something? Can you tell me what it is that you want to find? Perhaps I can help you find it. I am familiar with every grain of sand, every blade of grass, and every tree in this land. If the thing that you are looking for is really in this land, I can find it immediately. "
"It's an orb." Ling Chen hesitated for a moment, then continued, "If I'm not wrong, that orb should be in the territory of the race that you speak of."
The Mountain Giant was silent for a long time before replying, "If it's in their territory, I can't help you. I won't allow you to find them and put them in great danger of being exposed. Young human, leave this place. "
Ling Chen frowned and said calmly, "Mountain Giant, that thing is useless to others, but it is extremely important to me. I only want to find it, I have no other motives. If I really come into contact with the race that you are guarding, I can swear that I will not divulge any information about that race! Also, you just said that I don't have any sinful aura on me … "
"That is not enough reason." The Mountain Giant's voice became more serious, and he firmly rejected Ling Chen, "They have refused to come into contact with the outside world for a very, very long time. If you come into contact with them, you will cause chaos and panic, and you may even bring about their destruction. As their guardian, I will not allow such a thing to happen … Oh? "
The Mountain Giant's words were very serious, and he did not give Ling Chen any leeway or hope. However, at the end of its sentence, it suddenly let out a surprised sound. Following this, Ling Chen felt his body loosen up, and the gaze that had been staring at him suddenly shifted. It seemed to be slightly tilted to the right. Ling Chen also subconsciously looked to the right … to his right, apart from the shattered ground, there was only Little Grey.
"Hahaha, hahahaha …" The Mountain Giant suddenly laughed. His laughter was quite strange, but it was also quite peaceful, as if he had seen something that made him happy. He once again said, "I think I've found a reason not to stop you. Perhaps your arrival will not bring disaster, but instead bring me the 'opportunity' that I've always wanted. Go, I won't stop you. I hope that you and your companions can bring the 'auspicious sign' to them. This place is not suitable for them. If they hadn't hidden themselves for 10,000 years, the Forgotten Continent would be much more beautiful than it is now. They need an opportunity, and even more so, a reason that can convince them and convince themselves … or perhaps, a temptation. "
The Mountain Giant's refusal from before suddenly changed. Not only did it not stop him, but it even encouraged him to continue onwards. Ling Chen's mind spun as he thought about every word that the Mountain Giant had said. He loudly asked, "Then tell me, where is that clan hiding?"
"Your companions will guide you in the right direction. All you need to do is follow them. I need to continue my slumber. Perhaps when I wake up again, that clan will have been reborn, and will no longer need my protection. Hahahaha. "
As the Mountain Giant laughed, a yellow light flashed from its body, and it slowly disappeared. At the same time, a yellow light flashed in the distance. Within the yellow light, a tall mountain appeared, and it looked quite unremarkable among the countless mountains in the Nameless Ridge.
After everything calmed down, Ling Chen looked at Little Grey for a while as he thought to himself. Afterwards, he immediately retracted his thoughts and looked straight at the pile of spoils of war on the ground, rushing over as fast as he could … When he was talking to the Mountain Giant just now, he really, really wanted to kick the Mountain Giant that was stepping on these spoils of war, as far away as possible!
