Overlooking the rapidly receding landscapes on the ground, Frank recalled the distant past. When he was young, Chen Zhan once carried him and flew through the air. To this day, he can still feel the excitement of his first flight into the sky. The past is gone... The Tiger King flew like lightning, crossing the meandering mountains and passing through fluffy white clouds. Half an hour later, it brought Frank deep into the mountains, about five or six hundred miles away from the Sin City. At this time, it gradually slowed down, descended from the high altitude, and flew forward close to the tall trees. Sometimes, it even had to run through the jungle. Frank was initially very surprised, but gradually understood why it was so. Whenever the Tiger King crept carefully, it meant that the nearby area was a dangerous zone. Several times, when it just plunged into the thick forest, a huge shadow would appear on the ground, and a terrifying dragon would fly across the sky... This place was uninhabited and had a primitive appearance. In the long past, only a few powerful individuals from the Free City had set foot here. After traveling in this way for half an hour, the Tiger King completely gave up flying and landed on the ground, beginning to travel through the mountains and forests. Deep in the mountains, there were the cries of apes and roars of tigers. There were both fierce beasts and strange magical beasts, and all kinds of monsters emerged one after another. As time passed, Xiaoyu gradually became uneasy. If Frank hadn't constantly shaken the jade ruyi in his hand, it would have stopped long ago. Even so, it still dawdled. After crossing more than ten mountains and passing through a hundred miles of mountain forests, Xiaoyu finally brought Frank into the most primitive area. Here, the trees were dense, blocking out the sky and the sun. Almost no one had ever reached here. In this primitive area, Frank gradually felt something was wrong. It was unusually quiet here, without the slightest sound. It was completely unlike the places they had passed before, where there were birds chirping and beasts roaring. This mountain range was deathly silent, and not a single bird or beast could be seen in the vast forest. In this empty and deep mountain, Frank felt a little creepy, but he didn't want to give up halfway and forced the Tiger King to continue forward. Gradually, a strong fishy smell drifted into his nose. He frowned and guessed that there must be some evil beast lurking ahead. The unique smell it emitted made the nearby birds and beasts dare not approach. After traveling a little further, Xiaoyu completely refused to move and even lay on the ground. No matter how Frank forced it, it wouldn't budge. It wasn't until it saw that Frank was going to hang the jade ruyi around its neck that it jumped up with a "swish" and then unwillingly moved forward. After walking a few miles, the mountain terrain gradually became open, and the trees became fewer and fewer. Huge and terrifying footprints began to appear on the ground, each footprint being more than two zhang long. It wasn't until now that Frank understood what kind of evil beast was ahead. It turned out to be the legendary ancient giants. This area of the mountains was completely silent, and all the birds and beasts kept their distance. However, the footprints of the ancient giants were so dense. It was very likely that the front was the giants' habitat. He felt a chill run down his spine. When he was in the western border of the Chu State, he and the little princess once happened to encounter a giant. At that time, if he hadn't had the Houyi Bow in his hand, he would have probably died under the feet of the giant. Now, although his power had greatly increased, he was still far from being able to deal with a giant. Frank was from the East. Ten thousand years ago, he had never heard of such giant humans. It wasn't until after his rebirth that he heard about them. Adult ancient giants were generally about fifteen zhang tall, and the shortest ones were also ten zhang. Each giant had an extremely strong physique and was extremely fast. If a third-level sub-dragon fought against him, it would definitely not be his opponent. It was rumored that a strong adult giant could even fight against a thirty-zhaong dragon alone. Frank patted Xiaoyu's head and said, "Colorful Tiger, are there ancient giants ahead?" Xiaoyu nodded. "Is there one giant?" Xiaoyu shook its head. "Two?" Xiaoyu still shook its head. "Could there be many?" Xiaoyu nodded. Frank took a deep breath. The strength of an adult ancient giant was already close to that of a dragon. If there were many giants, he couldn't imagine it... He hesitated for a while and finally gritted his teeth and decided to move forward. At this time, the Tiger King refused to lead the way in front anymore, but Frank forcibly grabbed one of its ears and made it follow. The fishy and foul smell became stronger and stronger, making one feel nauseous. One person and one tiger cautiously crept forward. The mountain terrain became flatter and flatter. Ahead, a vast and open valley emerged faintly. Through the swaying tree shadows, one could see a beautiful small lake in the valley. The blue lake water was as smooth as a mirror. The valley was about eight or nine square kilometers. There were mountains all around, but they didn't completely enclose the valley. The trees in the valley were sparse, and even the grass was scarce. The ground was trampled as hard as stone by the giants. A small river meandered through the valley, passed by the mirror-like small lake, and then flowed out from the other end of the lake, slowly flowing out of the valley. When Frank grabbed Xiaoyu's ear and entered the valley, he was terrified. In the center of the valley, there was a hundred-zhang-tall mountain of white bones. The gloomy white bones were terrifying and the faint white light was frightening. On the mountain of bones was a large hall, which was more than ten zhang tall. The palace was built with unknown materials and was completely black and shiny. The main entrance of the hall was actually a huge mouth of a demon, hideous and terrifying. Looking closely, the entire palace seemed to be built based on the head of an evil demon, giving people terrifying feeling. Frank felt his scalp go numb, and his whole body felt chilly. His spine was emitting cold air. He was both shocked and frightened. Besides being uneasy, Xiaoyu also kept looking around vigilantly from time to time. "So many bones piled up into a mountain. How many lives of living beings were needed for this! This is simply a hell on earth! Colorful Tiger, did you know about this place long ago?" Xiaoyu nodded. "Let's go. Take me closer to have a look." The Tiger King Xiaoyu was a little scared. After looking carefully in all directions, it unwillingly spread its wings and flew forward with Frank. When they approached the mountain of bones, Frank was secretly astonished. Those white and gloomy bones were incredibly huge. Even the small pieces of bones were taller than him. The ground around the mountain of bones was shining white. It was actually bone powder several feet thick. It could be inferred that the mountain of bones had a history of several thousand years. Otherwise, some of the bones wouldn't have weathered into bone powder. He asked Xiaoyu to fly around the mountain of bones and found that the mountain of bones wasn't completely formed by piled-up bones. Under the white bones was a low stone mountain, and the hall was located on top of it. The gloomy white bones were piled up and covered later. Frank discovered that some of the white bones were still attached with bloody pieces of flesh, indicating that these were newly piled up. The strange stench made one feel nauseous. The valley was already filled with the fishy smell of the giants. Coupled with such a strange smell, it was simply unbearable. Even Xiaoyu couldn't help wrinkling its tiger nose. Frank was truly disgusted. Suppressing the urge to vomit, he observed the hall on the mountain of bones. The pitch-black and gloomy hall emitted a strange and demonic black light. The hideous and terrifying mouth of the demon was pitch-black. In a trance, it seemed that there were strange howls coming out, as if they were the ghostly sounds and demonic voices from the underworld... Suddenly, the ground trembled slightly, and two tall figures appeared faintly in the mountains in the distance. Frank was startled. He knew that the giants had returned. Before he could give an order, Xiaoyu quickly flew towards the distant mountain forest along the ground. After fleeing into the forest, it still wanted to continue running, but was forcibly stopped by Frank who grabbed its ears tightly. It had no choice but to stop, but its eyes were filled with terror. "Colorful Tiger, be good and don't move around." Frank and the Tiger King hid at the foot of the mountain and watched from afar. They saw two giants of different heights walking into the valley from the mountain forest in the southwest. The heavy footsteps landing on the ground made dull sounds. Their entire bodies were covered with thick body hair, which was as dense and long as animal fur. The taller giant was sixteen zhang tall. His left hand held a stone stick that was seven or eight zhang long. In the eyes of ordinary people, it was undoubtedly a huge stone pillar, but in his hand, it was just a lightweight weapon. On his right shoulder was clearly a flying dragon that was seven or eight zhang long. The flying dragon was already dead. Its wings were spread out, and its head and tail drooped weak, swaying with the giant's footsteps. The other giant was about thirteen zhang tall. He also held a long stone stick in his hand, and on his shoulder was a ground dragon. The giant carrying the huge ground dragon was just like an ordinary person carrying a dead fox. Frank was extremely shocked. Both the flying dragon and the ground dragon were extremely powerful, but in the eyes of the giants, they were just food to satisfy their hunger. It was truly terrifying. "Good heavens!" He exclaimed and then turned to ask Xiaoyu, "Didn't that flying dragon know how to fly? How could it be hunted by the giants?" Xiaoyu looked at the giants in the valley, its eyes filled with terror. After hearing Frank's question, it struggled to pick up a stone on the ground with its two front paws and then pushed it forward forcefully. "You mean the giants knocked down the flying dragon with stones." Xiaoyu nodded vigorously. "No wonder you, this colorful tiger, are so afraid of this place. So that's why." The two giants walked from afar to the mountain of bones and put down the prey on their shoulders about ten zhang away from the mountain of bones, piling them together. Then the two giants sat down on the ground. After about an hour, the ground trembled gently again. Three more giants returned, each holding a huge monster that was three or four zhang long. Frank and the Tiger King Xiaoyu hid in the mountain forest and watched the situation in the valley dry. Before the sun set, the giants returned to the valley one after another. There were a total of eleven giants living here. The tallest one was seventeen zhang tall, and the shortest one was an underage giant, only over eight zhang tall. The rest were all between ten and sixteen zhang. After piling up the prey together, these giants all knelt down towards the hall on the mountain of bones. Each of them emitted a series of muffled sounds from their mouths, seemingly praying for something. Then these giants stood up and walked towards the prey. The scene that followed was extremely bloody. The giants began to divide and eat the prey they had caught. They truly ate raw and drank blood. Frank quickly turned his head. Xiaoyu also turned its head. Its expression was extremely vivid, seemingly unwilling to see the bloody scene. "Colorful Tiger, don't you also eat raw and swallow alive? Why do you have that expression?" Xiaoyu growled at him lowly, seemingly objecting. When the giants finished their dinner and the sky had darkened, half of the prey had been eaten, and there was another large pile of white bones in the valley. Several giants got up and threw those bones onto the mountain of bones. Although Frank already understood the origin of the mountain of bones, he didn't know why the giants piled up the bones into a mountain, nor did he know what kind of place the gloomy hall on top of the mountain of bones was. From the bone powder at the bottom of the mountain of bones, it could be inferred that the earliest piled-up bones were several thousand years old. That meant that the giants had lived here generation after generation and never migrated, which caused the bones to pile up into a mountain. Just now, all the giants kowtowed towards the hall on the mountain of bones. It could be guessed that the reason why they had never migrated must be related to the strange and demonic black light-emitting hall on the mountain of bones. "Colorful Tiger, where did you find the divine bone you brought back last time? Could it be the palace on the mountain of bones?" Xiaoyu nodded. "Well, so it is. What's so strange inside?" Xiaoyu stretched out a pair of furry tiger paws and gesticulated for a while. At the same time, terror flashed in its eyes. Although it was intelligent, it couldn't speak after all. Frank was completely confused and didn't know what it wanted to express. He only knew that it was definitely not a good place. The sky became darker and darker. The giants in the valley picked up the prey on the ground and walked towards the mountain forest in the west direction. Vaguely, one could see a large cave at the foot of the mountain there, which should be the place where the giants rested at night. Frank felt a little hungry. He asked Xiaoyu to lead the way and stay away from the valley because the strange smell there was too strong to give him the slightest appetite. After staying away from the strange smell area, he took out the food he bought from the bag behind him and began to enjoy his dinner. Xiaoyu had turned into the size of a kitten and was lying on the grass, staring at the chicken leg in his hand without blinking, its face filled with longing. "Colorful Tiger, even if I give you all the food in my bag, it's probably not enough to fill the gap between your teeth. Later, go and hunt a wild boar or deer yourself. But I'll follow you to prevent you from running away and leaving me here." Xiaoyu moved closer, licked its mouth, and looked at Frank pitifully, while constantly sniffing the meat fragrance in the air. "Not only a colorful tiger but also a greedy tiger." Frank tore the roast chicken apart and handed half of it to it. Xiaoyu lay on the grass and ate with great relish. But in the blink of an eye, half of the roast chicken was gone. After eating, it started to lick its mouth and look at Frank. After waiting for a long time and seeing no response from Frank, it directly aimed at the bag of food on the grass. Finally, it couldn't resist stretching out a furry little tiger paw forward. "Greedy Tiger, are you addicted to eating? The kitchen of the Divine Wind Academy will sooner or later be ruined by you." Xiaoyu's eyes lit up when it heard this. It happily nodded at Frank, as if expressing its gratitude. Frank saw its expression and knocked it on the head, saying, "I didn't expect that my casual words would remind you. Remember, when you are caught, don't tell them that I instructed you." Then he laughed: "The greedy and colorful tiger steals and eats wantonly in the kitchen of the Divine Wind Academy... Hehe, it's really something to look forward to!" One person and one tiger were immersed in bad fantasies. One imagined the funny scene of the Divine Wind Academy dealing with the thief who stole and ate, and the other began to weave a beautiful dream for its own appetite. An hour later, it was completely dark. Frank urged the Tiger King Xiaoyu to walk towards the valley where the giants lived. There were only a few stars in the night sky. The world was pitch-black. Band-like black clouds surrounded the mountain of bones and the hall, as if they were demonic qi. Looking at them made one's heart and gall tremble. At this time, the caves in the west direction were completely dark. Frank forced Xiaoyu to fly there, but when it was two hundred zhang away from the caves, it refused to move forward no matter what. Frank listened carefully, and dull breathing sounds came into his ears. The giants seemed to have all fallen asleep. "These big guys are all asleep. This is easier to handle. Colorful Tiger, take me to the palace on the mountain of bones." Xiaoyu very unwillingly flew towards the mountain of bones in the valley. In the pitch-black night, the hundred-zhang-tall mountain of bones emitted faint ghostly fires and a gloomy atmosphere. The palace on the mountain of bones appeared exceptionally terrifying in the night, like a huge demon sticking out a hideous head from countless bones. Xiaoyu carried Frank and dive down from the air, flying towards the main entrance that resembled the huge mouth of a demon. There were nine steps below the main entrance of the hall, and each step was shining. Frank's face was filled with shock. Each step was actually covered with divine bones, and the faint light was emitted by the divine bones! "Good heavens! Divine bones paved the ground. It's simply unbelievable!" Xiaoyu landed on the steps and vigilantly stared in the direction of the main entrance. Frank carefully examined the divine bones on the ground and found that these scattered bones were just the remains of a god. They were dismantled and paved on the nine steps. Under his careful observation, he found that a pair of hand bones was missing. "Could this be one of the two ancient gods who fought fiercely in the Ruins of the God War? How could his remains be dismantled and paved here? Was it to have everyone who entered and exited the hall trample on it? To have such a deep hatred with a god..." Frank felt a sense of unease. The person who had such a great hatred with a god was definitely no ordinary person. He immediately thought of the other ancient god in the great war. "Could it be the other ancient god? No, the two ancient gods exploded and died together. It couldn't be done by the other god." The hideous and terrifying main entrance of the hall was pitch-black inside, without the slightest light. Streams of cold air emanated outward, and a faint and indistinct strange howl could be heard. A chill rose in Frank's heart. He felt a little scared and didn't know what kind of place the hall in front of him was. Whether to enter or not, he hesitated for a while...
