Lin Yu and Su Yao fixed their eyes and saw that the huge figure was actually a giant made of rock. It was more than two times their height, exuding a simple and powerful aura. The giant's eyes glowed with orange - red light, like two burning flames. Sensing the approach of Lin Yu and Su Yao, it let out a dull roar, raised its fist as big as a millstone, and smashed it towards the two of them.
Lin Yu reacted extremely quickly. He immediately pulled Su Yao and dodged to the side. The giant's fist hit the ground, and the passage shook violently in an instant, with rocks splashing everywhere. After stabilizing her figure, Su Yao immediately cast a water - based spell. A thick water dragon roared towards the giant. The water dragon hit the giant, splashing a large amount of water, but the giant only swayed slightly and didn't seem to be greatly affected.
Lin Yu knew that ordinary attacks had little effect on this giant. He injected all his spiritual power into his sword. The sword body was instantly ablaze with raging fire, and strange runes faintly flickered in the flames. With a loud shout, Lin Yu leaped into the air and slashed at the giant's leg. This sword strike contained all his strength. With a "poof" sound, the sword blade cut into the rock of the giant's leg but got stuck and couldn't penetrate any further.
The giant, in pain, waved its arm angrily and swept towards Lin Yu. Lin Yu quickly let go of the sword hilt and leaped backwards, narrowly avoiding this blow. The giant then lifted its leg and stomped down towards Lin Yu. Lin Yu rolled on the spot and hid to the side.
Su Yao continuously cast spells from the side to interfere with the giant, trying to create opportunities for Lin Yu. First, she used the Ice Cone Spell to shoot at the giant's eyes. The giant had to raise its arm to block. Taking this opportunity, Lin Yu picked up his sword and rushed towards the giant again. This time, he aimed at the joint where the giant's arm connected to its body and chopped down with all his might. With a shower of sparks, one of the giant's arms was actually cut off and crashed to the ground.
The giant let out a pained roar. With its remaining hand, it grabbed a huge rock from the ground and threw it at Su Yao. Su Yao couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the rock on her shoulder, falling to the ground. Seeing this, Lin Yu was extremely anxious. He rushed towards the giant regardless of everything and launched continuous attacks on the giant's head. Although the giant was huge in size, under Lin Yu's flexible attacks, it gradually became a bit overwhelmed.
Just when Lin Yu thought he was about to successfully defeat the giant, the giant suddenly glowed brightly all over, and the broken parts of its body began to heal rapidly. Lin Yu was shocked and realized that this giant probably had a special recovery ability. At this time, Su Yao also stood up. Ignoring the injury on her shoulder, she cast a spell again. This time, she combined the water - attribute spiritual power with the earth - attribute spiritual power to create a sticky mud that firmly trapped the giant's lower body.
Lin Yu seized this opportunity and used his most powerful martial skill. A flame sword qi flew out from the sword and slashed straight at the giant's neck. With a loud bang, the giant's head was chopped off, and its body crashed to the ground, turning into a pile of rubble.
Lin Yu and Su Yao heaved a sigh of relief and continued walking along the passage, supporting each other. At the end of the passage, a magnificent palace appeared. The palace gates were wide open, and a soft light filled the interior. They entered the palace and found a huge stone platform in the center of the palace. A golden - glowing sword was stuck on the stone platform, which was the ancient sword they had been desperately searching for.
Just as Lin Yu and Su Yao were about to step forward to pick up the sword, a cold voice suddenly sounded in the palace: "Do you think you can get this sword so easily?" As the voice rang out, a group of warriors in black armor emerged from all around the palace and surrounded Lin Yu and Su Yao. These warriors exuded a powerful aura, and their eyes were cold and empty, as if they had no souls.
Lin Yu and Su Yao tightly gripped their weapons and got ready for battle. Lin Yu whispered to Su Yao, "It seems this is going to be another tough battle. Be careful." Su Yao nodded slightly, her eyes showing determination. They didn't know the origin of these mysterious warriors or how to break through the encirclement to get the ancient sword. But at this point, they had no way back and could only fight with all their might...
