Chapter 213 - 201: Dominate Heaven and Earth; Divine Being Breaks Through the Kiln 3
That giant stone statue was just slowly crawling up to its feet from the ground when the first mountain spirit came crashing over.
Xie Lian recalled Hua Cheng had once told him back then when he was in Mount TongLu, those three large mountains were a menace chasing him down, so naturally they shouldn't be underestimated. Xie Lian subconsciously planned to volley up and flip over its head, but he had never controlled such an enormous divine statue before after all, and to manipulate such complicated movements, he couldn't help but mess up, so he didn't manage to jump up but was instead knocked down once again.
Rumble rumble, the heavens shook and the earth quaked. That giant stone statue fell down near the royal capital of WuYong, and crushed an entire street. With just a slight movement, a series of cracking could be heard, and it was the sound of those glamourous residences and palaces being crushed and shattered by that giant stone statue. In the midst of all the shaking, Xie Lian was almost thrown off again, but Hua Cheng firmly grabbed on to his hand and exclaimed, "Come with me!"
He took Xie Lian and hopped onto the head of that giant divine statue with a few steps. Turns out, this giant Flower-Crowned Martial God used a small crown to tie up its hair, looking like a small balcony, and the two hopped onto that crown, finally finding a place to settle, much steadier than standing on the shoulder and in the palm of the divine statue.
They hadn't had a chance to relax when the mountain spirit came at them again, knocking that giant stone statue back a few steps, but fortunately Xie Lian was prepared this time and wasn't knocked down, but he accidentally trampled another series of houses. Xie Lian couldn't help but ache for them, praying for forgiveness in his mind. Controlling that divine statue to clumsily slip away to avoid those houses, Xie Lian wondered in bafflement, "Why do they keep chasing after me to beat me down? What did I do?"
"It's not that they're chasing gege specifically, they'd chase down anyone to beat them down, and gege looks particularly conspicuous right now."
"Such a big creature, he is rather conspicuous..." Before Xie Lian finished his thoughts the three mountain spirits came besieging together, surrounding this giant stone statue, and crushing towards the centre incessantly, trying to crush the statue to pieces. That divine statue couldn't move a limb and Xie Lian couldn't move either. He used all of his strength to have the statue push back but it couldn't move an inch, so it might not be able to defend!
He was just trying to think if there might be another way to escape and involuntarily backed up a step, bumping into a chest. He looked back and Hua Cheng grasped his shoulders, "Let everything go and fight! Don't worry, none of them are your match. There is nothing in this world that can stop you in your step!"
His chest was like the strongest of shields, and suddenly, Xie Lian was filled with confidence, a wave of refreshing currents flowed through his body, and he gave it his all to strike back, breaking through the siege!
Rumble rumble, those three mountain spirits were forcibly pushed miles a mile away, and dust flew, rocks fled, smoke and debris rolled. However, after they were pushed back they immediately came forth again, ready to attack once more. Xie Lian's hands instantly changed into several hands seals, "DO, NOT, BLOCK, MY, WAY!"
That giant stone statue leapt into the air, its feet landing over the head of two of the mountain spirits, then its hand rested on the hilt of the sword hung on its waist – pull out the sword!
