Chapter 375: Giant Slaying
The cauldron towered at a hundred meter high with seven legs and sixteen handles. It was created by smelting a million pound of bronze with beast runes imprinted on top. Flames channeled through this spirit treasure with the name of “Moon Mountain Cauldron”. It had appeared in the cultivation world before.
This was a third-ranked treasure with terrifying power and had killed two Giants before.
A weapon that had been missing for one hundred years showed up again today. The significance behind this was incredible. The Grand Southern Prefecture couldn’t produce a third-ranked weapon. It must be a great power from another region.
The Divine King swept his sleeve and a golden dragon flew out to attack the cauldron. It coiled around the treasure and pushed it away into the horizon.
“Even a monstrous weapon like that is here... I’m afraid the enemies have Giants at eighth-level Heaven’s Mandate.”
Giants had this title because they were at the top of the Jin Dynasty like pillars upholding the world. This was usually the ancestor level as well.
There were disparities among Giants. However, lower-ranked cultivators weren’t privy to this knowledge and thought all Giants were insuperable.
The aura on some ancestors that have lived for centuries was boundless. A few disciples would never be able to see one in their lifetime and felt that they were immortals. Thus, how could they dare to gauge the ancestors’ power?
The truth was that the most common Giants were at the seventh level of Heaven’s Mandate. Ninety percent of all Giants were at this level.
At the eighth level, they would be considered a “Super Giant”. This type of being meditated towards the supreme grand dao and rarely participated in power contention. They were few in numbers and much stronger than ordinary Giants.
At the ninth level, they were called “Paramount Giant”. There were even less of them and the majority all lived in seclusion in preparation for the Heaven Tribulation. They would only show themselves in times of true perils in the world.
Of course, there was also the “Supreme Giant”, or the “Historical Giant”. These were the historical geniuses at the ninth level with peerless battle potential. One would be hard-pressed to find them in the current generation.
