Chapter 144 Twin Cyclops Giant_2
```
"This is, a Cyclops!?"
Vina gasped and then exclaimed at the sight of the creature before her.
Qin Xiao also saw the figure of the other clearly, it was a giant, its body covered with black and white hair, and, surprisingly, it had two heads on its shoulders. Its massive body stood over ten meters tall. Both heads had just one eye, emitting an intimidating radiance; a mixture of black and white light continuously radiated from its body.
Qin Xiao said, "This isn't a Cyclops, it's an extremely rare variant among Cyclops, the Twin Cyclops Giant!"
"What!"
Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, Vina was visibly shocked.
She had learned about the Twin Cyclops Giant in her sect.
It was a very powerful soul beast!
They were born two meters tall, and when their Cultivation Level reached one hundred years, they could grow to over five meters tall, which was considered an adult Cyclops. Only then would their growth rate slow down a bit.
When their Cultivation Level reached a thousand years, the Cyclops' height could surpass eight meters. If it reached ten thousand years, their height could even grow beyond fifteen meters.
However, in terms of appearance, Cyclops are somewhat unique among soul beasts; apart from the single eye on their forehead and being much taller than humans, they almost have no other differences from humans.
In the process of soul beasts' cultivation, ten thousand years is a massive threshold. Once they cross it, the strength of soul beasts increases dramatically. Some soul beasts mutate upon breaking through ten thousand years.
The mutation of a Cyclops isn't a certainty, but only a possibility. Moreover, there is more than one direction for the mutation. But the strongest of them is the Twin Cyclops Giant before us.
The Twin Cyclops Giant is an extremely rare embodiment of both Light and Darkness. Its strength is such that it can enter the ranks of top-tier soul beasts.
"The height of this Twin Cyclops Giant before us is about ten meters, so it should be considered among the ten-thousand-year soul beasts, right?"
"A ten-thousand-year Twin Cyclops Giant, with such strength, even Soul Sage level experts would shake their heads."
Vina felt a wave of fear looking at the terrifying behemoth before her.
Ordinary ten-thousand-year soul beasts already required a Soul King to lead a Soul Hunting Squad to cope.
A ten-thousand-year Twin Cyclops Giant definitely takes this limit up a notch.
If facing it one-on-one, at least a Soul Sage level expert could weigh their chances. For a group battle, it would also take a few Soul Emperor level experts leading the team to confidently say they could subdue such a fearsome soul beast.
And now...
It was just her and Qin Xiao...
The only chance to kill this soul beast was to try to make it burst from being overfed...
"You stand behind me," Qin Xiao suddenly said to Vina.
Vina was startled and instinctively looked towards Qin Xiao.
But she saw that he had already boldly stepped in front of her, leaving only his back view.
"You, you..."
Vina opened her mouth, her expression tense.
She really wanted to say, run for it.
But standing behind Qin Xiao's tall figure, she felt incredibly safe.
It seemed that the soul beast before her wasn't too big a problem after all.
This young man could handle it...
Though she found it absurd, she couldn't help but believe it unconsciously.
In any case, she was conflicted.
"You can do it!"
She couldn't bring herself to speak words of defeat and could only muster the courage to encourage Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao didn't turn around, merely responding to Vina without looking at her, "I will."
"Roar!"
At that moment, the Twin Cyclops Giant let out an angry roar.
The tiny humans before it, they dare not run?
This annoyed it greatly.
Everyone knows that the game of one chasing and the other fleeing is the most fun.
It liked to see the look of despair on humans' faces just before their death.
With a single step, it could cover thirty to fifty meters.
The hundred-meter distance between it and Qin Xiao was closed in just two steps.
Then, from its single eye, black and white lights burst forth, forming a terrifying shockwave and blasting towards Qin Xiao.
"Earth Shield!"
Qin Xiao calmly uttered two words.
Terrifying spiritual power suddenly gathered the Earth Element from between heaven and earth and forcefully accumulated it in front of himself, forming a thick, yellow wall of earth over one meter thick and three to five meters high, protecting him and Vina behind it.
"Boom!"
The next moment, the black and white shockwaves powerfully hammered the yellow earth wall, which only flickered a few times before blocking the attack.
Twin Cyclops Giant: "???"
```
What's going on?
A human as insignificant as an ant, actually wasn't blasted into dregs?
Vina's beautiful eyes were wide with astonishment. She hadn't seen Qin Xiao release a Soul Ring, nor had she seen him activate a soul bone. That meant... this ability was one he concocted himself?
"You, you couldn't possibly have reached... the 'Unity of Heaven and Man' level, could you?"
She instinctively thought of a possibility.
...
Meanwhile.
In an ancient grand tree hundreds of meters away, Poison Not Dead, in his shock, violently plucked a strand of his beard.
But he felt no pain.
The shock had numbed his nerves.
A distance of several hundred meters couldn't affect his vision at all, so he could clearly see what was happening afar.
"Unity of Heaven and Man, this kid has definitely grasped that realm; I'm not mistaken."
"What a monster. It took Long Aotian several years, and it took me several months, but this kid... less than a day?"
"No, not even a day; the night isn't even over. It's only been half a day's time... This talent... awesome!"
Since there was no one around, Poison Not Dead voiced his inner thoughts.
And furthermore...
"This kid's Unity of Heaven and Man seems quite impressive. He can actually control other elements between heaven and earth, creating various skills out of thin air?"
Throughout history, there were several from the Body Sect who had grasped the Human-Spirit Fusion Combat Technique.
Basically, none of them had broken free from the limitations of their own Martial Soul, and their skill effects were more or less related to it.
But someone like Qin Xiao, there wasn't another one.
"A true genius always stands out from the rest."
After his astonishment, Poison Not Dead was full of admiration.
At the same time, he was even more convinced of his resolve to keep Qin Xiao in the Body Sect.
...
"Poison Not Dead must have seen my performance, right?"
"Yeah, he must be extremely shocked; I just wonder if his jaw has dropped."
Qin Xiao muttered to himself.
There was no doubt, this scene was also something he intended for Poison Not Dead to witness. Moreover, within the range of his spiritual sensing, he had also detected Poison Not Dead's presence.
He was certain that this ten-thousand-year Twin Cyclops Giant was led here by Poison Not Dead as a means to train him.
However.
This was also in line with Qin Xiao's own plans, turning the situation to his advantage.
Displaying his strong capabilities and talent to win over Poison Not Dead, to make Poison Not Dead support him even more firmly.
His reason for doing this was quite straightforward; it was to solidify Poison Not Dead's resolve to pass on the Body Sect to him.
After all, with Shrek Academy as an enemy, the complex relationship between the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy and Mingde Hall won't be easy to take over. Only the Body Sect represented a powerful force he could control in a short time.
"Roar!"
The Twin Cyclops Giant, seeing that its attack did not succeed, grew even angrier.
It raised its fists, intending to shatter the earthy yellow light shield in front of it.
"Qin Xiao..."
Vina's pretty face was filled with tension.
Qin Xiao remained calm, "Don't worry, I'm here."
As he spoke, he suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, "Lightning, come!"
Crack.
A bolt of white lightning as thick as a bucket directly tore the sky, illuminating the heavens and the earth.
"He can even... summon thunder?"
Poison Not Dead was shocked once again from afar.
The Thunderous Force was no joking matter, it was extremely violent and also inflicted certain damage to one's spiritual power.
Ordinarily speaking, Qin Xiao's spiritual attribute should have been restrained...
What about now?
The situation was completely opposite.
The victor seemed to be Qin Xiao.
His spirit was so powerful that he could even restrain the thunder?
Poison Not Dead suddenly felt his own educational level was insufficient, as his mind, besides 'damn', 'incredible', and 'mind-blowing', could not find better adjectives to describe his feelings at the moment.
