Chapter 1666 - Radiant Golden Bull Fruit

As Liu Wuxie had often been away for long stretches of time, he had rarely had any chance to speak with the two brothers, A'Lei and A'Li.

The moment he heard that A'Lei was looking for him, Liu Wuxie left the main hall and flickered onto A'Lei's shoulder.

"A'Lei, were you looking for me?" Liu Wuxie asked, assuming that A'Lei had run into some difficulty in cultivation.

Over the past year, the two brothers had learned a great deal from the Heavenly Dao Society, including management, trade, problem-solving, and cultivation. They had undergone a tremendous transformation during that time and were no longer the greenhorns they had once been.

"Half an hour ago, the chieftain sent me a message that a strange plant has appeared on Giant Star. It bears enormous fruit and radiates a powerful aura. He asked me to return and take a look at it," A'Lei said, repeating the message exactly as the chieftain had passed it along.

"What kind of fruit is it?" Liu Wuxie asked.

With the massive changes currently sweeping heaven and earth, and the passage between the two realms allowing immortal energy to leak into the mortal realm, countless treasures had begun to appear. Some spiritual fruits that had reached ten thousand years of age had even begun to awaken spirituality and take on humanoid forms.

"It looks like this," A'Lei said as he showed Liu Wuxie the drawing the chieftain had sent over.

"It's the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit!" Liu Wuxie nearly cried out in shock the instant he saw the sketch. He had never expected to encounter the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit, long believed extinct, let alone see it appear on Giant Star.

"Heavenly Lord, what is this Radiant Golden Bull Fruit?" A'Lei asked. Even the Giant Clan's chieftain had failed to recognize it, but Liu Wuxie clearly did.

"There's no time to waste. We'll talk on the way. Call A'Li over. We need to head for Giant Star immediately," Liu Wuxie said. He had no time to explain now, because the appearance of the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit would absolutely stir the greed of countless people. They had to seize it before the news spread.

With the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit, Liu Wuxie felt confident that he could break through to the pinnacle of the Heaven Gaze Realm. By then, he would even stand a chance of defeating a powerhouse at the second-level Heaven Immortal Realm.

He had not forgotten his promise to the divine son that he would travel to the Divine Race within six months and settle their feud. If he intended to enter the Divine Race's headquarters, then he needed absolute strength, or he would not leave that place alive.

"Okay!" A'Lei released a soundwave, and A'Li came running the instant he received it.

With a wave of his hand, Liu Wuxie stored the two giants inside an interspatial pouch to make traveling easier. Along the way, he explained to the two brothers what the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit did.

The Radiant Golden Bull Fruit was an extremely rare spiritual fruit, especially beneficial to cultivators training their physiques. It granted the consumer the strength of a bull. Each fruit contained a vast amount of energy, making them exceptionally suitable for the Giant Clan.

Only massive planets could produce such fruits. Though Giant Star was not technically a supersized planet, its surface area was astonishingly vast, even larger than Indigo Bamboo Star.

A planet's size did not determine its tier; the purity of its laws and spiritual energy did.

A'Lei immediately sent word back to the chieftain, urging him to protect the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit at all costs. They absolutely could not let anyone get there first.

After an entire day of nonstop travel and passing through several teleportation arrays, Liu Wuxie finally arrived on a supersized planet. Everything there was enormous. Even the trees rose over three thousand feet, and every mountain pierced straight into the clouds.

This was the planet where the Giant Clan lived. Besides the Giant Clan, many other lifeforms existed there, and in terms of size, they were no smaller than the giants. Some especially powerful astral beasts were even larger.

As soon as they entered Giant Star, A'Lei and A'Li emerged from the interspatial pouch and led the way. They weaved through the dense forest with ease. Back on their home planet, they could move however they pleased without worrying about their massive size.

Compared to the Giant Star, the mountain ranges found on other planets within the Indigo Bamboo Astral Domain were miniature. The lifeforms on most other planets could leap across half a hill with ease. But on Giant Star, the local creatures did not need to worry about such things.

They crossed the vast forest in two hours, and then a primitive tribal settlement appeared before them. It was the Giant Clan's home.

The return of A'Lei and A'Li drew the attention of their clansmen. Compared to the other giants, the two brothers were much larger and far more imposing than most.

An elderly giant stepped forward. His hair was completely white, and he held a walking staff that was actually an entire tree trunk more than three hundred feet long. This giant stood twice as tall as A'Lei, making A'Lei look like a dwarf by comparison. He was A'Yunshan, the Giant Clan's chieftain, and he looked like a walking mountain.

A'Lei and A'Li hurried forward and bowed with great respect. "Greetings, chieftain!"

The Giant Clan had retained its tribal way of life, with the chieftain ruling over the entire clan. Within the tribe, the chieftain stood like a deity.

"You two have returned!" A'Yunshan laughed heartily the moment he saw A'Lei and A'Li. Despite his age, he showed not a trace of frailty. His voice boomed outward, sending the surrounding trees rustling violently.

Liu Wuxie could not help feeling shocked. A'Yunshan's cultivation was actually comparable to the Quasi-Immortal Realm. Though the Giant Clan could not fly, the strength of their race far surpassed that of humans.

"Chieftain, Young Master Liu came back with us!"

Liu Wuxie remained seated on A'Lei's shoulder and cupped his fists toward A'Yunshan. The difference in size between them was far too great. Even standing on A'Lei's shoulder, Liu Wuxie still had to lift his head to look at the elder.

"Young Master Liu, your presence honors our Giant Clan. We welcome you with all our hearts!" A'Yunshan invited Liu Wuxie into the Giant Clan's main hall to rest.

The hall was enormous, and no human guest had ever visited until now, so every seat had been carved from massive boulders.

When Liu Wuxie sat in one of the huge chairs, he looked like an ant seated in the middle of a herd of elephants, surrounded by giants on every side.

"Chieftain, there's no time to waste. We need to collect the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit as quickly as possible!" Liu Wuxie said, getting straight to the point. There was no time for courtesy. He had come for the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit and intended to use it to break through to the ninth-level Heaven Gaze Realm.

"The Radiant Golden Bull Fruit?" All the giants exchanged glances. Clearly, none of them knew its true name.

When the large fruits had appeared on Giant Star, the chieftain had sent word to A'Lei and asked him to investigate them. The Giant Clan knew almost everything about their own planet, so the sudden appearance of those fruits had naturally drawn their attention.

"Young Master Liu, what kind of fruits are they?" A'Yunshan asked.

The Giant Clan did not even know whether the fruits were poisonous, so how did Liu Wuxie know their origin?

"They have tremendous effects, especially for the Giant Clan. Once consumed, they can bring huge changes to the physique. You'll understand the exact benefits then," Liu Wuxie said. He did not explain in detail because the urgent matter was to seize the fruits first.

Giant Star was not home only to the Giant Clan. Many astral beasts had also already caught the scent of the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit, and they would absolutely come to fight for it.

"Okay. There's no time to delay. We'll leave immediately!" The Giant Clan knew very well what Liu Wuxie had accomplished over the years.

Back during the Myriad Race Ceremony, Liu Wuxie had helped the Giant Clan. He had also helped A'Lei and A'Li improve their cultivation and transform their physiques.

The chieftain gathered all the Giant Clan's elites, including A'Lei and A'Li. He himself had to remain behind and guard the settlement against possible attacks from astral beasts.

Every year, great numbers of astral beasts attacked the Giant Clan's settlement, and many giants died in those conflicts. Their mortal enemies, the Heavenly Howling Moon Wolves, were especially dangerous. Their bodies were no smaller than those of the Giant Clan, and their nature was notoriously vicious.

Every year, giants died beneath those wolves' fangs. A'Lei's father had been one of their victims, bitten to death and devoured until not even his bones remained.

"A'Wu, you will lead the group. Make sure to bring them all back safely," the chieftain said to a middle-aged giant.

That giant was an elder of the clan, and even A'Lei had to call him uncle. His cultivation had also reached the pinnacle of the Heaven Gaze Realm.

"Chieftain, please rest assured. I'll protect them," A'Wu replied with a nod. A strange, massive bow hung across his back, and craftsmen had carved the arrows from tree trunks so large that they could pierce straight through a mountain.

Though the other giants also carried bows, none were as terrifying as A'Wu's. A'Lei and A'Li were no exceptions. After such a long time, they too took out their treasured bows once more.

Liu Wuxie sat on A'Lei's shoulder as the group of more than twenty giants headed toward a primitive and densely packed forest.

The ground lay carpeted with rotting leaves and broken branches, while vines coiled around enormous trees.

A'Wu took out a giant sickle and began hacking a path forward for them. If Liu Wuxie had been traveling alone, he would not have needed to make such an effort and could simply have slipped through. But because of their massive size, the giants had to clear an actual road as they moved.

These vines grew at an astonishing pace, and the path cut open by the giants would close back up again after only a few days. On this planet, whether it was the giants, the astral beasts, or even the vegetation, everything grew with incredible speed.

"Uncle Wu, how much farther is it?" A'Lei asked as he followed behind A'Wu.

"It will take about another day's journey," A'Wu replied, sweat beading across his forehead as he chopped apart a vine as thick as a human arm.

The Giant Clan did not possess true essence or immortal energy. All of their power came from their physical bodies. Repeatedly hacking through those vines had clearly exhausted a great amount of A'Wu's strength.

The group continued onward until evening, before A'Wu finally called for everyone to rest. A'Lei and A'Li took responsibility for patrolling the surroundings, since Giant Star became especially dangerous after nightfall.

Liu Wuxie's figure flickered, and he rose into the air, activating Ghost Pupil to capture everything within a radius of tens of thousands of meters. But the vegetation was too dense in many areas, and some plants had already awakened their spirituality, preventing Ghost Pupil from seeing through them.

The forest was so dense that even if astral beasts lurked inside it, it would be difficult for anyone to detect them.

"Uncle Wu, how did you discover the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit?" A'Li asked. As everyone rested, they took out dried rations with mainly preserved meat. After all, the giants still needed physical food to replenish their strength.

"One of our hunting teams went out a few days ago to gather food and stumbled into a valley. That's where they found the fruits you call the Radiant Golden Bull Fruit," A'Wu said while tearing into a chunk of dried meat.

Suddenly, a loud rustling sound came from the distance, and everyone became instantly alert. They grabbed their bows at once and stood ready to defend. Every giant there was well-trained and had been born a warrior.

Anyone could imagine how terrifying it would be if giants alone formed an actual army.
