Heaven-Surpassing Divine Emperor

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The dull thud of footsteps was deafening. Before their eyes, a colossal figure appeared.

It was a humanoid monster, hundreds of meters tall, shimmering with blue light and composed entirely of ice!

In its hand, it carried an Ice Giant Hammer as massive as a small mountain.

The Ice Giant Hammer scraped along the corridor floor. As the humanoid monster advanced, the hammer dragged with a deafening, grinding roar.

”This is bad. It’s a Frost Giant.” Zifeng Jun’s expression changed drastically.

A look of terror washed over Purple Wind Frost’s pretty face. She said, ”We have to run... This Frost Giant has limitless strength and no weaknesses. Even if it’s shattered to pieces, it can regenerate in an instant. It’s basically invincible! Let’s go!”

The two of them, brother and sister, were from the Icefield Race.

They were naturally very knowledgeable about the Profound Celestial Ancestor Realm.

As they spoke, the Frost Giant’s enormous eyes fixed on them, and it let out a sudden roar.

The Frost Giant bellowed as it charged toward Jiang Chen and the others.

”I’ll hold it off! You guys go first!”

Jiang Chen’s expression tightened. Fortunately, the Icebound Corridor had intersecting passages everywhere. If it had been a straight path, their only option would have been to retreat.

”Be careful!”

Zifeng Jun and the others also knew that if they stayed here, they would only be a burden to Jiang Chen.

The three of them shot off to the side at incredible speed.

Jiang Chen looked at the Frost Giant and snorted coldly. ”Hey, big guy, your target is me!”

The Spirit-Slaying Sword shot out a black Sword Aura, which struck the Frost Giant’s left leg with a BOOM.

BANG!

The Frost Giant’s left leg was severed, sending shards of ice flying everywhere.

”ROAR!”

Its huge body staggered to the side, looking as if it would fall off the Icebound Corridor. But its massive frame used the rising Annihilation Gang Wind to stabilize its center of gravity. It stuck its severed leg over the edge of the corridor, and under the blowing Annihilation Gang Wind, the broken leg grew back completely.

Bellowing, it swung its giant hammer down at Jiang Chen.

”Holy shit, it can do that?” Lines of dismay appeared on Jiang Chen’s forehead.

This Annihilation Gang Wind was a fatal threat even to a Human King Realm Powerhouse.

’Not only is the Frost Giant unafraid of the Annihilation Gang Wind, but it can even use it to heal?’

’Does it have to be so ridiculously overpowered?’

’Looks like Zifeng Jun was right. The only option against a Frost Giant is to run...’ Jiang Chen thought with a bitter smile, then changed direction and chased after Zifeng Jun and the others.

The Frost Giant roared angrily, swinging its heavy hammer as it gave chase relentlessly.

Jiang Chen sprinted for his life.

He was constrained at every turn on the Icebound Corridor, so he didn’t dare to go too fast.

After sprinting for about half a double-hour,

he finally managed to put some distance between himself and the Frost Giant.

”Where did Zifeng Jun and the others go?”

Jiang Chen caught his breath and knocked on the snoring Black Emperor in his robes. ”Little Black, see if you can find any trace of Zifeng Jun’s group.”

Black Emperor, his eyes hazy with sleep, said with dissatisfaction, ”This Emperor isn’t a dog. You’re asking me to track people?”

Despite his words, Black Emperor’s nose twitched. He pointed to the middle Icebound Corridor. ”This passage still has a faint scent of Wind Emperor Fire Brew. Little Vermilion Bird and the others must have gone this way!”

”Good!”

Jiang Chen stuffed Black Emperor back into his clothes and quickly gave chase.

Not long after...

he did indeed see Zhao Hongluan and the other two.

However, their situation was dire. They were being cornered and attacked by two Frost Giants.

BOOM!

A massive Ice Hammer came crashing down.

Zifeng Jun dodged just in time, but the hammer smashed a crack into the Icebound Corridor, and Annihilation Gang Wind spewed out from the fissure.

A shiver of fear ran through Zifeng Jun.

Purple Wind Frost cried out, ”Brother, be careful!”

”Don’t worry!”

Zifeng Jun nodded, held his Profound Weapon, and charged toward the Frost Giant again.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

He clashed violently with the Frost Giant, allowing Purple Wind Frost and Zhao Hongluan to seize the opportunity and escape the two giants’ encirclement.

ROAR!

Both Frost Giants roared simultaneously, and their two giant hammers came down in unison.

Zifeng Jun’s face paled.

It was already extremely difficult for him to fend off one Frost Giant. Facing the attacks of two at once was almost a death sentence!

”Duck!”

In the nick of time, Jiang Chen’s voice rang in his ear.

Zifeng Jun ducked instinctively. Immediately after, he saw the Frost Giant in front of him go flying. Like a soaring mountain, it was flung high into the air and then crashed into the Frost Giant behind it with a BOOM. The two Frost Giants stumbled backward one after the other and fell off the Icebound Corridor.

’Saved at last!’ Zifeng Jun rejoiced internally.

Jiang Chen said, ”Don’t just stand there, let’s go!”

He grabbed Zifeng Jun’s clothes and shot backward.

Almost at the exact moment Jiang Chen and Zifeng Jun moved, the cracks on the Icebound Corridor spread rapidly to where they had just been standing, and streams of Annihilation Gang Wind howled upward.

That was too close!

The two of them had almost met their end right there!

”Brother, are you two okay?” Purple Wind Frost and Zhao Hongluan rushed over, their faces filled with worry.

Zifeng Jun shook his head. ”I’m fine, it’s all thanks to Jiang Chen for saving me!”

Jiang Chen waved his hand dismissively. ”This is no place to linger. Let’s get out of here quickly!”

The four of them continued onward.

The Icebound Corridor was a twisting, labyrinthine network of intersecting paths.

Along the way, Jiang Chen and his group encountered many other powerhouses. Some were being chased and smashed into meat paste by a Frost Giant’s hammer. One person tried to lure a Frost Giant toward them, but Jiang Chen kicked him off the Icebound Corridor, where he turned into an ice sculpture. Others begged them for help...

Through sheer perseverance, the four of them finally reached the end of the Icebound Corridor on the third day!

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

The four of them hurriedly rushed out of the exit. The moment their feet touched the solid ground of a cliff, all four collapsed. They gasped for air, and after catching their breath, they looked at each other and broke into smiles of relief, having survived the ordeal.

This trip through the Icebound Corridor was another life-and-death experience they had shared.

”We’re finally out!”

”That wasn’t easy!”

”It’s all thanks to Jiang Chen that we made it through the Icebound Corridor safely...”

”I’m never doing that a second time!”

After recovering a bit, all four got up and surveyed their surroundings.

”This is the other side of the Icebound Corridor. My father said... the Ancestral Land has three trials in total. After passing the First Stage trial, the Icebound Corridor, there will be a grand hall for us to rest. And inside that hall, we can also receive our reward for passing the trial!” Zifeng Jun explained.

”The hall is over there!”

Zhao Hongluan spotted the hall’s location.

It was a grand hall constructed entirely from ice.

”That’s right, this is it!” Zifeng Jun’s face lit up with joy.

The four of them hurried toward the hall.

However, when they reached the entrance to the hall, they were met with an obstacle...
