Ruler Shanhai stood in the air, his eyes filled with disbelief.

This puppet was so powerful. No wonder Duan He and the others were blocked outside.

“Sir, this fella’s brute strength is too strong. We can’t fight him head-on,” Duan He shouted.

That puppet was too fast. It was too late for him to warn Ruler Shanhai.

“It’s just a small puppet. I don’t believe that he can overturn the sky.”

Ruler Shanhai’s eyes shone with a cold light as he waved the sword in his hand. Nonetheless, the sword wave did not get close to the puppet and turned into nothingness.

“What’s going on?” Ruler Shanhai was stunned.

Duan He explained, “Sir, the puppet can’t walk out of the cave, and we can’t attack it from the outside. If we attack from the outside, there’ll be a mystical formation that’ll block all our attacks.”

Seeing Ruler Shanhai suffer a loss, Duan He was even more astonished.

He had originally thought that this formation would only be able to withstand the attacks of those in the second step, but he did not expect that it was the same case for a powerhouse in the third step. Was this place not too mystical? One had to know that a third-step conferred Ruler was the strongest powerhouse in the Great Wide World.

“There’s such a thing?!” Ruler Shanhai looked around.

He had lived in seclusion here for countless years, and he was quite proficient in formations.

Even so, after searching for a long time, he could not find any traces of a formation.

Nevertheless, there was clearly something that had blocked his sword wave.

Ruler Shanhai was slightly excited. The more mystical this place was, the more precious the things inside were. His strength had not improved for thousands of years, and he was very eager to improve his strength.

Now was the chance!

Ruler Shanhai’s body turned into many afterimages in the air. This time, he did not pay any attention to the Rock Giant but went into the cave.

As long as he entered the cave, there was no need to pay any attention to this guy.

The Rock Giant had obviously seen through his opponent’s thoughts and did not stop him. His lips curled into a mocking smile.

“Bang!” Ruler Shanhai’s body slammed into the cave entrance.

“How’s this possible?” Ruler Shanhai’s eyes were filled with shock. The cave entrance was empty, but it was impossible to enter.

“If you want to enter, you have to defeat me!” A loud voice filled the air.

At the same time, a huge fist smashed toward Ruler Shanhai.

“Boom!” Ruler Shanhai hurriedly flew up.

A huge hole was created in the ground but when the Rock Giant raised his fist, the ground became flat again. This shocked Duan He and the others who were watching the battle from afar.

Among them, only one of them exchanged a blow with the Rock Giant. That person was heavily injured and had to rely on pills to stabilize his body. The others were all fighting the giant from 100 meters away. Seeing that something was wrong, they hurriedly dodged to save their lives.

If it was not for Ruler Shanhai, they would not have known that sneaking in would not work either.

The few of them looked at each other with lingering fear in their hearts.

Not long ago, they had discussed that the 4 of them would stall the Rock Giant while the other would sneak in. Now, they saw that this plan was stupid. If someone ran to the entrance of the cave and could not get in, it would be difficult to get out. Once the puppet made a move, death would be the only outcome.

The few of them were drenched in a cold sweat. Fortunately, this plan was not carried out.

Ruler Shanhai leaped up and dodged the Rock Giant’s punch. His expression was cold as he swept the longsword in his hand downward.

A powerful sword intent burst out and slammed into the Rock Giant’s back.

“Clang! Clang!” Only a few pieces of rock debris bounced off the Rock Giant’s back.

These small pieces of rock debris were nothing compared to his mountainous body.

“So powerful!”

Ruler Shanhai was shocked. He knew very well how powerful his sword was.

Such a sturdy sword was unable to harm this Rock Giant in the slightest. This guy was too terrifying.

The Rock Giant raised its head. From the bottom to the top, a surge of saber-light attacked. The long stone blade cut through the space, creating many large holes.

Ruler Shanhai felt that he was firmly locked onto, and his expression changed slightly.

“Mountain-moving!” He shouted coldly, and his longsword suddenly swung.

The sound was like thunder. Even though Ruler Shanhai had used his full strength, the difference in strength between the two was still enormous.

Ruler Shanhai’s body was like a kite with a broken string floating in the air, and the Rock Giant suddenly jumped up. The giant was already more than 100 meters tall and now that he jumped, he was a few hundred meters off the ground. He suddenly waved the stone saber in his hand, and from top to bottom, he cleaved down with force.

‘Oh no.’ Ruler Shanhai’s expression changed.

He felt a strong sense of danger. This saber was very powerful and if he fought it head-on, he would be injured.

Without hesitation, he retreated and flew 100 meters away.

The Rock Giant in the air suddenly stopped, and his huge body fell to the ground.

“So mighty.”

Duan He’s expression was changing. He had not expected this puppet to be so formidable that even the third-step powerhouse, Ruler Shanhai, had no choice but to take shelter.

If that was the case, would they still have a chance?

Ruler Shanhai did not look too good either. He had originally been full of confidence, but he had not expected to receive such a blow right off the bat. He was a mighty powerhouse of the Great Wide World but now, he could not even enter the cave entrance of this big tomb. Just what kind of place was this…

Shocked beyond belief, Ruler Shanhai thought about how to break out of this situation.

At this moment, Ruler Shanhai suddenly raised his head and shouted coldly.

“Who are you!”

The 5 second-step powerhouse also raised their heads. They were hostile as they looked at the 2 people who had suddenly appeared in the sky.

‘Who are they, and when did they come?’

The others looked at each other, unable to answer this question.

These 2 people were Ou Yangming and Wutong. After observing for a while, the young fellow had gained a rough idea of this place. That Rock Giant was the puppet that guarded this big tomb. If he wanted to enter the tomb, he had to defeat it.

The various wonders of this place also surprised Ou Yangming.

No matter what, this was a good place. There might be some unexpected gains inside.

“I asked you a question. Why aren’t you answering?” Ruler Shanhai’s eyes were filled with anger.

He was the Ruler of the Shanhai Continent, and the Barbarian King Mountain was also his territory. His position here was like that of an emperor in the secular world, but someone refused to listen to him at this time.

The aura of the third-step powerhouse swept out, instantly enveloping Ou Yangming and Wutong.

Duan He and the others hurriedly retreated. They did not feel it when they were fighting just now, but they finally felt the terror of the third-step powerhouse.

This pressure was not directed at them, but they felt suffocated.

“Ruler Shanhai, could it be that you plan to make an enemy out of me?” Ou Yangming said indifferently. His and Wutong’s expressions did not change.

They were like rocks in a storm. No matter how violent the other party’s aura was, they were not moved at all.

“Who are you?” Ruler Shanhai’s gaze was filled with shock.

He had not expected that his aura would not have any effect on these 2 figures.

“What do you think?” Ou Yangming’s body also revealed a mighty aura.

This aura was even more violent than Ruler Shanhai’s, instantly pushing back Ruler Shanhai’s aura. Duan He and the others were dumbstruck.

The young fellow was an almighty being.

Ruler Shanhai suddenly felt suffocated. Looking at Ou Yangming’s appearance, his body trembled as he said in disbelief, “You… You’re Ruler Ming…”

There were not many almighty powerhouses in the third step of the Great Wide World. As an experienced powerhouse, Ruler Shanhai knew every single one of them. Only the recently rising Ruler Ming and the mysterious Ruler Ying had not been seen by him.

This young fellow was so young, and he was also a mighty figure.

He was surely one of the two.

The characteristics of Ruler Ying were very eye-catching. It was obvious that he did not match up to the person in front of Ruler Shanhai, so there was only one possibility left.

It was Ruler Ming who had wreaked havoc with the Phoenixes, defeated Ruler Ying, and killed 2 Demon Kings not long ago.

Ruler Ming’s fame resounded throughout the Great Wide World. Everyone knew who he was. Ruler Shanhai lived in seclusion on the Barbarian King Mountain, but one could often hear legends about him.

Duan He and the others were similarly shocked. This was a supreme powerhouse that was even greater than most supreme powerhouses.

Seeing that the other party’s expression was calm and did not deny it, Ruler Shanhai took a deep breath and said, “Greetings, Ruler Ming.”

Facing Ruler Ming, Ruler Shanhai did not dare to be careless even if he was an existence on the same level as the other party.

There were also differences between the strong and the weak in the third step. Ruler Ming was undoubtedly one of the best. Given that he killed 2 Demon Kings by himself, in the Great Wide World, there was not a single powerhouse who could compare to him. Ruler Shanhai knew that he could not.

“Greetings, Ruler Ming.” Duan He and the others hurriedly bowed as well.

This was Ruler Ming! He was a famous almighty powerhouse in the Great Wide World. His name was like a clap of thunder.

Wutong had a smile on his face as he looked at Ou Yangming in front of him.

That little fellow who had once been in the Spiritual Realm had finally grown into a giant in the Great Wide World. Even mighty powerhouses could not help but tremble at the sound of his name.

“There’s no need to be so polite.” Ou Yangming smiled. He looked at the somewhat perturbed crowd and said, “You’re not allowed to spread the news about me.”

The way he emphasized the word “don’t” was enough to show his attitude.

Ou Yangming believed that the others should understand it well. It did not matter if his tracks were exposed or not. As long as he did not get involved with Chi Ming, the other party would not be able to do anything to him.

Despite that, he could not let others know that the old man and the others were here.

Wutong was at most just a cover. If Chi Ming was determined to search the others, it would still be very dangerous.

“Yes, sir.” The few of them trembled and hurriedly said.

Ou Yangming smiled and did not continue to pay attention to them. He took a step forward, and the Rock Giant appeared again.

Duan He wanted to remind him, but he held back in the end.

He did not know Ruler Ming’s personality. Besides, if Ruler Shanhai could escape from that giant, Ruler Ming would not encounter any problems.

Looking at Ou Yangming’s back, their eyes were filled with anticipation.

Could Ruler Ming deal with that fearsome giant?
