730. The Gap Between Me and This Giant Is Enormous / 731. The Black Crocodile

Kid, your time is up. Die!

A savage expression appeared on the Giant’s face, his eyes filled with bloodlust. At the same time, dense demonic energy radiated from him, turning the entire room black.

Izayoi knew the situation was dire. He quickly fled into the distance, using an acceleration movement technique in hopes of shaking off the Giant.

However, at that moment, the Giant seemed to use a secret acceleration technique as well. His speed surged in an instant, swift as lightning, and he caught up directly.

The Gap Between Him and This Giant Was Far Too Great

Izayoi was stunned by the sight. He had not expected the Giant to use such a method. But it was already too late. The Giant threw a punch.

Boom! The Giant’s fist smashed viciously into Izayoi’s chest. His chest caved in at once, and blood poured out.

Izayoi felt the pain in his chest spread throughout his body. The Giant’s demonic energy was eroding his body.

The Giant threw another punch. Izayoi had no way out. He knew that if this continued, he would undoubtedly die. But he was unwilling. He did not want to die.

But it was already too late. Izayoi hurriedly deployed a protective barrier.

At that moment, however, the Giant stopped attacking, because he discovered that his attacks had not harmed Izayoi in the slightest. Instead, they had boosted Izayoi’s strength, leaving the Giant furious.

The Giant looked at the surrounding environment. He knew that everything was because of the ruins before him.

He could not help roaring in rage. It was all because of him, because of his own actions.

Facing the Giant’s overwhelming strength, Izayoi felt helpless. "Looks like I can only use my full strength against you!"

Izayoi’s aura suddenly erupted. A powerful force surrounded his body, and now he was finally capable of contending with the Giant.

Izayoi thought to himself, Even if I use my full strength now, I can’t clash head-on with this Giant. I need to sever one of his arms first. That will make things much easier.

With that thought in mind, Izayoi began gathering power. He knew his strength was not enough to confront the Giant directly. He could only rely on skill.

Then, his figure flashed and vanished from where he stood, while the Giant caught sight of Izayoi’s figure.

Hmph! Let’s see where you can run to now!

The Giant snorted coldly, then smashed his fist into the ground. The earth shook violently, and bricks across the floor shattered one after another. At that moment, Izayoi appeared behind the Giant.

The Giant immediately sensed the danger coming from behind.

Get lost! The Giant turned and punched behind him, but the punch struck empty air. He realized that it had missed completely. It was not Izayoi’s attack, but his own fist that had struck nothing.

The Giant was shaken. He had not expected this human kid to evade his attacks through clever technique. But what could that change?

He would not allow this human kid to escape. Thinking this, a scheming smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

When Izayoi saw the Giant’s crafty smile, he immediately understood what the Giant intended to do.

Izayoi snorted coldly, and his body suddenly vanished. When he reappeared, he had already severed one of the Giant’s arms.

Disbelief appeared on the Giant’s face. His right arm had been cut off. He was a Giant!

This human kid had actually cut off his arm. No wonder he had been able to evade his attacks just now.

Your attacks are useless against me now!

The Giant was enraged. He had not expected to be reduced to such a miserable state by a human kid. He felt humiliated. The Giant’s fist then smashed fiercely toward Izayoi.

The Giant’s strength was too great. With a single punch, the entire castle was nearly destroyed.

Damn it! Izayoi cursed inwardly, then threw a punch of his own. He knew this could not continue.

The Black crocodile

The difference in strength between himself and this Giant was simply too great, so he had to rely on strategy. Otherwise, he would truly be in danger. Bang! With a dull thud, their fists collided once more.

"Damn human brat, you broke my arm! I want your head!" the Giant said furiously.

Izayoi sneered. "You want my head? Then take my life first. Let’s see whether you have what it takes."

As he spoke, terrifying slaughtering demonic energy burst from Izayoi’s body and charged straight at the Giant before him. The Giant was horrified and hurriedly dodged.

"Haha, now you know fear? Too late. My magic will devour your soul and make you sleep forever in darkness," Izayoi said.

The Giant roared, "Kid, you dare threaten me? You’re courting death!" As he spoke, he raised his arm and smashed it fiercely at Izayoi.

Hmph! Izayoi gave a light snort. A longsword suddenly appeared in his hand, radiating intense icy light as it slashed viciously at the Giant before him.

The Giant was so frightened that he quickly fled. Izayoi continuously released white spheres of light to attack from behind, while the Giant fled desperately. He did not know what to do. The human before him was too powerful.

He was no match for him at all, and this fellow’s techniques were far too strange, leaving him unable to cope. He could only keep running.

The spheres struck the Giant’s body, immediately covering his arm with dense wounds and leaving him in an even more wretched state.

Izayoi sneered. "This is only an appetizer. Next, I’ll show you what true despair is!"

As his voice fell, streak after streak of ice descended from the sky, instantly blanketing the entire space. The Giant was frozen within it, and the ice continued melting into him. He struggled desperately, but it was useless.

Seeing this, Izayoi smiled.

Hmph, so what if you’re frozen? My attacks are far more powerful than this. I’ll make you wish you were dead. As he spoke, Izayoi unleashed another barrage, and countless spheres of light danced through the air.

Pfft! Sphere after sphere landed on the Giant’s body. By now, the Giant was covered in blood. He fled frantically into the distance, opened a hidden passage, and quickly entered it.

When Izayoi saw this, his heart tightened. He rushed over at top speed, wanting to stop him, but the other side seemed to have anticipated his movements and had prepared to escape. In an instant, he vanished from Izayoi’s sight.

Seeing this, Izayoi gritted his teeth in hatred. He had actually let the other side escape. Damn it. If he had not been careless just now, the Giant could never have gotten away.

But now he had no way to pursue him, because the Giant had already fled. He could only wait until the other side left his sphere of influence before hunting him down.

"Kid, I will have my revenge! I will never let you go!" The Giant’s furious roar echoed from within the hidden passage, but aside from coldness and chill, there was no other sound.

Izayoi thought angrily to himself. He quickly jumped into the hidden passage and chased forward with all his strength. He had to catch up as soon as possible.

However, during the pursuit, he discovered a problem. He could not find any trace of the Giant at all. Just then, a crocodile pounced at him and launched an attack. It was enormous and had a strange appearance.

Hand Slightly Raised

This was a black crocodile. It swung its tail and lashed it toward Izayoi. The crocodile was too powerful; Izayoi was completely no match for it. When the tail struck Izayoi, it felt as though he had been hit heavily by an iron hammer. His body flew backward, slammed into a wall, and fell to the ground.

Izayoi felt as if every bone in his body was about to fall apart.

Pfft! A mouthful of blood sprayed from Izayoi’s mouth. Terror filled his eyes as he stared at the crocodile before him.

Cruel light gleamed in the crocodile’s eyes as it walked toward Izayoi step by step, a cold and vicious smile appearing at the corner of its mouth.

Izayoi’s head buzzed as though it were exploding, and terror filled his gaze.

Izayoi took a medicinal pill to heal his injuries, then charged at the crocodile again. However, he was sent flying once more, blood spewing from his mouth. Izayoi lay on the ground, despair in his eyes.

At last, he understood what true power was.

This time, Izayoi could no longer get back up. He lay motionless on the ground, his face filled with despair.

Izayoi knew he was doomed. He was unwilling to accept it. His life was about to end in this world. He thought of many things, of all those wonderful memories.

At that thought, powerful strength erupted from within him. Izayoi rose to his feet and charged at the crocodile before him again.

The crocodile was sent flying by Izayoi’s blow, blood splashing from its body. Izayoi’s fist was covered in blood, and several fragments were embedded around his wrist.

His body was covered in wounds, and he had already lost all feeling in it. Izayoi’s body trembled violently, but he still endured. He was not dead yet.

Izayoi’s eyes were filled with madness as he charged at the crocodile again. His body was covered in blood, yet he persisted. He was not dead yet.

His eyes were filled with madness. His body was covered in blood, yet he persisted. He was not dead yet.

Izayoi rushed before the crocodile and pounced at it with bared teeth and claws, trying to bite it. But then he felt the scene before his eyes swaying. He looked at the blood on his hands, his eyes widening in disbelief at what was before him.

Bang! His chest was kicked by a foot. His body flew away and crashed into the wall behind him. Blood sprayed from his mouth, and Izayoi lost consciousness.

Just then, Izayoi woke up again. He had now discovered the crocodile’s weakness. He swung the sword in his hand, tracing beautiful sword arcs as he stabbed toward the crocodile.

This sword was the one that had fallen from Izayoi earlier. It was now in his hand. His figure flashed and vanished. When he reappeared, he was already above the crocodile’s head. Then he raised his sword and slashed down fiercely.

A trace of panic appeared in the crocodile’s eyes. It hurriedly dodged, evading Izayoi’s attack.

However, it was slower than Izayoi. One of its horns was cut off by Izayoi’s sword. The crocodile immediately howled in pain, its body twisting endlessly. Then it turned around, opened its fangs, and bit toward Izayoi.

Izayoi hurriedly dodged, but his body was still struck by the attack. A long wound was torn open across his abdomen, and blood flowed out continuously.

But he was not dead yet! He was unwilling to accept this!

Then he raised the sword in his hand again and charged at the crocodile. His body spun through the air, and his legs kicked the crocodile’s head.

The black crocodile’s head was shattered by Izayoi’s kick, and bright red blood splattered across the ground.

His Flow of Vital Energy Slowed

A group of Crocodiles charged toward Izayoi from both sides. Their auras were extremely powerful; it was clear that they were stronger than Izayoi. Izayoi was greatly alarmed, but he remained calm. When the Crocodiles were about to reach him, Izayoi slightly raised his arm, and a flame emerged from his palm.

That flame landed directly on one crocodile, while the other crocodiles opened their mouths and spat flames as well.

Boom! The flames collided with an ear-splitting roar and a tremendous explosion. Fire scattered in every direction, and Izayoi took the opportunity to evade. Otherwise, being struck by those flames would have been troublesome.

Bang! Several Crocodiles that Izayoi had dodged fell straight to the ground.

Seeing this, the Crocodiles roared furiously.

Roar! As the roar rang out, Izayoi’s ears began buzzing wildly.

Such a powerful aura!

Izayoi frowned. He knew that the Crocodiles before him were definitely much weaker than the previous ones, but he still did not dare underestimate them. After all, there were simply too many of them, and it would be difficult for him to withstand them alone.

Roar! A group of Crocodiles pounced at Izayoi. The water currents around their bodies began to spin, and a terrifying pulling force swept toward him.

Hmph! Izayoi snorted coldly and swung both fists, directly sending the group of Crocodiles before him flying.

Just then, one crocodile rammed Izayoi directly, sending him flying. Then another crocodile crashed into him, forcing Izayoi back again and again.

Izayoi was completely dazed. He had no idea what had happened. That collision just now had been far too powerful.

Roar! Two more Crocodiles rammed into him. This time, Izayoi had no way to dodge. His chest had been smashed into a bloody mess.

Fortunately, he still held on. Though injured, he had not lost his fighting ability.

At this moment, Izayoi also understood clearly that he was facing danger.

Izayoi fled into the distance, secretly releasing several hidden cages as he ran. He believed that the Crocodiles would definitely fall into the trap when they came after him.

The Crocodiles were quite foolish as well. They did not notice the cages and chased straight after him.

Soon, they approached the cages. Once the cages sensed prey, they all dropped at once, trapping every crocodile inside.

Izayoi strolled over leisurely and laughed. "Weren’t you all so arrogant? What now? This little thing trapped you? Didn’t you say you were going to eat me?

Upon hearing Izayoi’s words, the Crocodiles became restless and violent, struggling nonstop inside the cages.

Unfortunately, their bodies were trapped beneath the cages, and they had no way to escape. They could only twist their bodies constantly inside the cages, letting out nauseating hisses.

Izayoi looked at them and could not help laughing. "What? You know fear now? But it’s too late. I won’t let you live."

As he spoke, a sword of light suddenly condensed in Izayoi’s hand. He directly thrust the light sword into the Crocodiles’ heads.

However, just then, he discovered that some Crocodiles had escaped from his cages. He was greatly shocked. Soon, the Crocodiles charged at him madly and began biting him.

Blood flowed heavily from Izayoi’s arms, thighs, and calves. The blood dripping onto the ground was a terrifying sight. Izayoi truly had not expected this to happen.

They Would Definitely Take the Opportunity to Tear Him Apart

Izayoi was seriously injured now. He knew he had to take out the precious high-grade medicinal pill he had kept for a long time in order to recover from his wounds. So he took a porcelain bottle from his robes, poured out a pill, and swallowed it.

After taking it, Izayoi felt the flow of vital energy in his body slow down, while his previously weakened body gradually recovered.

This healing pill was something Izayoi used to save his life.

He was not sure how effective it would be, but he could no longer worry about that now. He could only heal his body first and deal with everything else later.

The Crocodiles still wanted to attack him. Seeing this, Izayoi quickly summoned a powerful protective barrier. The barrier could defend against all attacks and would give him time to recover.

He sat cross-legged and began absorbing the dense spiritual energy of heaven and earth here to heal his injuries.

After a long time, Izayoi finally recovered from all his injuries.

He stood up and moved his limbs around. Feeling that he had mostly recovered, he prepared to leave.
