Chapter 1584: Chapter 1622: Spy Within a Spy
A feeling that the world is vast yet there’s nowhere to hide, akin to facing cosmic might, surged in his heart.
Jiang Fan’s body trembled uncontrollably.
It was fear stemming from his body’s instinct.
But his eyes showed no fear, he didn’t even spare a glance at the Giant Emperor.
Instead, he stared intently at the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.
In his eyes, the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was a hundred times more hateful than the Giant Emperor!
He clenched the nine-colored crystal tightly and coldly said, "Come to hell with me!"
The nine-colored crystal might not be able to kill the Giant Emperor, but it was enough to kill the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner!
The Spear Giant Emperor had already seen Jiang Fan planning to hand this object over at the Great Wine Sacrifice before the battle began.
Now, he fixed his eyes and immediately sensed the terror within, his pupils contracted violently.
"He holds a dangerous treasure, back away!"
The Gangfeng Giant Emperor instantly used Instantaneous Movement to retreat upon hearing this.
The Spear Giant Emperor also hurriedly used Instantaneous Movement to dodge.
Unexpectedly.
He suddenly found his feet tangled by something, hindering his movement.
Looking down, he saw a group of paper figures emerging from the ground, grabbing his feet!
These paper figures were all vividly lifelike.
They looked exactly like the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner!
"Jiangshan First-class Building Owner? What are you doing?"
The Spear Giant Emperor shouted in anger and surprise.
In response, a shattered blade filled with a holy aura pierced into his back.
The one holding the broken blade was indeed the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.
He still wore a gentle smile and said, "Of course, to kill you."
As he spoke.
The crystal-clear, milky white Holy Light-emitting broken blade transformed into a ray of light with a puff, stabbing into the Giant Emperor’s body.
In an instant.
White Holy Light shot out from the Giant Emperor’s eyes, mouth, nose, and ears.
Then, from the pores and skin cracks, white Holy Light sprayed out everywhere.
It seemed as though the Giant Emperor’s body was suffering destructive damage, causing him to let out a painful roar:
"The Heavenly Realm Quasi-Boundary Device... Angel’s Blade..."
"You... deceived us..."
His body shuddered, and the terrifying force ripped the space apart.
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner’s arm holding the Celestial Blade was instantly shattered into the void.
But ignoring himself, he used Instantaneous Movement to bring Jiang Fan away.
Sparing them from being caught in the dying thrashes of the Spear Giant Emperor.
The Spear Giant Emperor’s shrill screams became sharper.
The space centered on him tore into black cracks, crisscrossing, making it look like a long-dried rice field.
His mad struggles, each movement of his limbs, unleashed overwhelming destructive force.
The cursed sundial on his forehead spun rapidly, cursing in all directions.
Yet, this did nothing to stop the erupting Holy Light from spraying out from every part of his body.
The forty-meter-tall golden giant instantly became a Holy Light Giant.
Finally, with a boom.
The Holy Light Giant disintegrated, transforming into countless small golden feathers drifting all around, and soon dissipated.
Only a fractured Holy Light broken blade with more cracks fell silently to the ground.
A Giant Emperor was thus slain by a broken blade.
And not a single bone was left, the form and spirit were utterly annihilated.
Not even a wisp of a remnant soul remained!
Boom!
In the distance.
Amidst the terrifying destructive shockwaves, the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner fell out from Instantaneous Movement with Jiang Fan.
Jiang Fan was alright, only a small part of his body was shattered by a residue wave.
The Heavenly Clothes Divine Water within him was mending it.
Aside from severe pain, there were no lethal injuries.
But the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was different.
He had not only lost a leg to the void, but his chest was also hit by the Giant Emperor’s curse.
A blood-red spear pierced through his chest.
The spear contained dreadful Curse Power, constantly draining his vitality and flesh.
Even after swallowing a Heavenly Clothes Divine Water, it was to no avail.
It only temporarily alleviated the Curse Power within the spear.
Jiang Fan looked at his severed arm and leg with eyes filled with bewilderment when they should have been full of hatred.
"What... is going on with you?"
Clearly, he had already betrayed Central Earth and joined the giant faction, so why did he betray the Ancient Giants in the end?
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner grasped the huge spear on his chest, trying to pull it out, but it wouldn’t budge.
It seemed to have grown into his body, draining him dry.
He resignedly said, "So be it, this is the best outcome."
Ceasing resistance, he sat weakly on the ground, letting the spear consume his flesh and blood.
Lifting his head to look at Jiang Fan’s young face, he smiled slightly, making eye contact with Jiang Fan.
Understanding his intent, Jiang Fan activated the Mute Zen Bead.
In his mind, the voice of the Building Owner immediately came:
"If I truly joined the giant faction, the Three-Star Space Giant King would not have been lured to the Continent and killed by you."
Jiang Fan’s mind buzzed for a moment.
The one who told the Three-Star Space Giant King that there was a portal to the Hell Realm on the Continent could only have been the "human traitor" Jiangshan First-class Building Owner.
But he had intentionally concealed the Continent’s risks.
This allowed Jiang Fan and others to easily handle a formidable enemy.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have just been the Bodhisattva who fell.
Jiang Fan’s eyes slightly trembled, uncertainly sending a mental message: "Your actions of betraying Central Earth were to gain the giants’ trust?"
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner weakly nodded his chin:
"What ultimately decides the outcome of a war is at the Sage Realm level."
"Only by killing a Giant Emperor can we gain an edge in the final war between the two realms."
Jiang Fan deeply understood.
Winning at the Nascent Soul Realm and Divinity Transformation Realm only provides a temporary reprieve.
The real sword hanging overhead is the Giant Emperors with their world-ending powers.
As long as they lived, victory was out of reach.
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner’s voice grew weak:
"The Giant Emperors of the Heavenly Realm dread the Great Wine Sacrifice, fearing to descend easily."
"Especially those of our Taicang State, they dare not face him."
"To kill them, they must be tricked into descending."
"Thus, under orders from the Great Wine Sacrifice, I spared no cost to gain their trust, offering them the idea from centuries ago, of the Ten Sins of Central Earth betrayal..."
Upon reaching this point, the Jiangshan First-class Building Owner proudly laughed:
"Having tasted the Ten Sins of Central Earth, they arrogantly believed they could recreate the miracle of the past."
"So, they readily agreed."
"Now, they must taste the loss of three Giant Emperors at once."
Jiang Fan immediately understood everything.
It turned out, everything was a scheme by the Great Wine Sacrifice.
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner was the chosen one to execute the plan.
Jiang Fan took out half of the Soul Awakening Divine Nails and said, "Then you gave me the Soul Awakening Divine Nails, and said there would be a great return, what did you mean?"
The Jiangshan First-class Building Owner fixed his gaze on Jiang Fan, eyes full of boundless hope:
"If you enter the nine apertures with this and eventually transform into a deity, you’ll certainly kill many giants."
"Wouldn’t I profit then?"
"I’ve never made a losing deal in my life."
"Hahaha..."
