333: First, lose an arm.
Gu Qinghan also realized this and immediately reacted.
He looked at the Scarlet Witch beside him, who currently had a somewhat grim expression, clearly stifled by her inability to join the battle.
"Go interrupt it, and try to find its weakness."
Hearing Gu Qinghan's command, the Witch's expression subtly changed.
She naturally understood that the Earth Vein Giant was almost invincible in close combat.
Gu Qinghan couldn't possibly be unaware of this, yet he still wanted her to charge in.
Was it because she had been too disrespectful to him before, and now he was retaliating?
The Scarlet Witch thought this, but still said nothing, silently stepping forward.
Under the constraints of the rules, Gu Qinghan could issue any command to her.
Even if she was unwilling, her body had to comply.
And to die in battle was considered an honor for a Netherworld Creature.
"What's with that expression? Hurry up and go."
Gu Qinghan saw the Witch's expression and urged her on with some confusion.
The Witch nodded, just about to fly out, when she suddenly felt a surge of power integrate into her body.
Immediately following, eight slender tentacles appeared near her blood-colored wings.
She looked at Gu Qinghan in astonishment, but found that he was no longer looking at her; instead, he was frowning, seemingly deep in thought.
The Scarlet Witch realized that she had misunderstood Gu Qinghan.
He wasn't sending her to her death, but truly wanted her to stall the opponent.
So, she charged out fiercely, quickly approaching the Earth Vein Giant.
Seeing the small insect that had been swatted away earlier fly back again, the Earth Vein Giant let out a muffled roar.
Its large hand, the one not holding a weapon, swung out again, slamming down like a fly swatter.
But this time, the Witch was not swatted away.
Eight tentacles firmly clung to the Earth Vein Giant's large hand, simultaneously stabilizing the Witch's figure.
A mass of extremely viscous blood appeared in her hand, then was thrown out fiercely.
This viscous blood quickly expanded in the air, then formed a large net, ensnaring one of the Earth Vein Giant's arms.
There was nothing else she could do; the Earth Vein Giant's size was too immense, and this was already the Scarlet Witch's current limit.
But the next second, the Earth Vein Giant's head began to emit an earthy yellow light.
This light was actually emitted by its helmet, and under the illumination of this light, the blood-colored net began to shatter inch by inch.
The Witch gritted her teeth, immediately transformed into a bat, and plunged into the Earth Vein Giant's body.
One second later, she reappeared behind it, clutching a hard stone in her hand.
This could barely be considered the Earth Vein Giant's blood, but the most awkward part was that the Witch at this moment couldn't crush this mass of blood at all.
It was too hard!
"Explode for me!"
Suddenly, the Witch remembered the tentacles behind her and immediately manipulated them to exert force together.
All eight tentacles wrapped around the hard stone, tightening at a visible speed.
Crack, crack.
A sound of something breaking came from within the tentacles, and then the Earth Vein Giant suddenly stiffened and staggered to the side.
In the sky, perhaps due to the intensity of the battle causing a change in weather, dark clouds seemed to be gathering.
It was at this moment that Chu Tian rejoined the battlefield.
Golden chains emerged from his body, binding the Earth Vein Giant's blood-net-restrained arm like venomous snakes seeking to claim a life.
That was its left arm, but also Chu Tian's best target at the moment.
After all, although the blood net on it was gradually breaking, it was still under a restraining effect.
At least, the left arm seemed much less threatening than the right arm, which was fused with the mountain-sized hammer.
And Chu Tian's goal was very simple: to first cripple one of this fellow's arms!
"Seal for me!"
Chu Tian roared, the golden chains coiling around the Earth Vein Giant's left arm, like golden patterns swirling.
After these golden patterns appeared, they quickly faded, leaving only a faint golden shimmer.
The earthy yellow light shining from the Earth Vein Giant's helmet, upon encountering these golden patterns, for the first time lost its effect.
Like smoke dispersed by the wind, these earthy yellow lights scattered, unable to release the restraint on this left arm.
The Earth Vein Giant's body had not yet regained its balance, but its combat power was still rising.
Upon realizing this, Chu Tian immediately dismissed the idea of retreating, his entire body glowing with golden light.
Several golden chains appeared again, but they were much thinner than before.
These chains directly wrapped around the Earth Vein Giant's left shoulder, tightening fiercely under Chu Tian's control.
This time, these golden chains did not fade, but displayed unparalleled hardness.
Cracking sounds rang out, indicating that the Earth Vein Giant's body was being gradually constricted.
However, this massive creature's body was slowly regaining balance, and even that terrifying mountain-sized hammer was slowly rising.
Everyone could feel that this fellow was angry!
"Gu Qinghan! Help me out!"
Chu Tian pulled hard on two chains, simultaneously squeezing out a few words through gritted teeth.
A red phantom floated gracefully, the Scarlet Witch arriving before Chu Tian.
She glanced at Chu Tian, said nothing, but immediately began her attack.
Her slender, jade-like hands instantly transformed into sharp claws, as if blood was flowing through them, and she clawed at the stones next to the golden chains.
In an instant, those hard stones were torn apart like tender tofu, allowing Chu Tian's chains to tighten further.
"Master, I temporarily no longer need this power."
The Witch's voice echoed in Gu Qinghan's mind, causing Gu Qinghan, who was concentrating, to raise an eyebrow.
In this address of "Master," there was no longer the previous humiliation and defiance, making it sound much more pleasant.
Moreover, what the Witch was referring to at this moment was clearly the power brought by Deaths Touch.
"Then touch the person next to you, and that power can be used by him."
Hearing Gu Qinghan's message, the Witch immediately turned to look at Chu Tian.
"What are you doing?" Chu Tian was alert.
"Don't move, I'm helping you."
The Witch quickly moved to Chu Tian's side, placing her sharp claws on his shoulder.
However, she had no intention of attacking; instead, a surge of power flowed into Chu Tian's body.
Subsequently, Chu Tian felt eight tentacles appear behind him, and he could control them.
"There's such a good thing?!"
His expression was shocked, but he immediately reacted.
The chains he had originally been holding with his hands were now entrusted to two of the tentacles.
Immense power surged, making the chains tighten more and more, even feeling as if they were about to break.
The Witch also returned to her position, desperately beginning a new round of destruction.
With two sharp cracks, two tentacles broke, as the Earth Vein Giant slightly moved its left arm, snapping the two straining tentacles.
The Witch almost fell, but with her flying ability, she immediately stabilized herself.
Chu Tian himself couldn't fly, and was currently clinging to the Earth Vein Giant's body with his tentacles.
He looked at the Earth Vein Giant, which seemed about to regain control of its left arm, and at its right arm, raised high, a look of determination in his eyes.
"I still have to unseal it, this time at least four or five layers..."
Chu Tian gave a bitter smile, and then several chain phantoms appeared on his body.
Just as he reached out to pull the chains, he suddenly felt a terrifying force approaching.
From the dark clouds gathering in the sky, a black pillar of light, like divine punishment, fell straight down!
