However, Zhou Hong's grandfather told him, "Don't worry, as long as you gather 1,000,000 giants, no further training will be needed. You can immediately form the Sword Array."
Zhou Hong didn't quite understand and asked, "Why?"
"Because ten thousand people have already passed the training and formed the Zhuxian Sword Array. These ten thousand people can serve as guides, and the rest will simply follow suit. Your most important task now is to quickly gather the 1,000,000 giants."
"Okay."
Zhou Hong knew time was of the essence and there was no room for hesitation. Moreover, he had to quickly create some commotion. If the higher echelons of the Giant Kingdom knew about it, perhaps they wouldn't send anyone to the human base camp anymore.
Thus, Zhou Hong immediately activated the Zhuxian Sword Array in this city. The place where Zhou Hong activated the Zhuxian Sword Array was the very core of the city.
However, man proposes, and heaven disposes. Zhou Hong had arrived in this giant city, which was inhabited by seven or eight peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouses.
Zhou Hong's Zhuxian Sword Array was no match for peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouses. Activating the Zhuxian Sword Array in this city was akin to walking into a trap.
As expected, the moment Zhou Hong's Zhuxian Sword Array was activated, it was instantly discovered by the peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouses of the city, who rushed in and shattered Zhou Hong's Zhuxian Sword Array.
"Not good." Zhou Hong's expression changed drastically.
"Zhou Hong, run! This city has so many peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouses, you'll have to go to another city," Zhou Hong's grandfather anxiously shouted.
"But how can I run? My aura has already been locked onto," Zhou Hong felt his body becoming extremely stiff. It was clear that he had been locked onto by those few peak Nascent Soul stage giants.
"This is simple. First, enter your inner world. They will instantly lose your target, and then you will instantly reappear. During this brief moment, they won't be able to lock onto you. Immediately burrow underground. Your body is very small compared to giants. If you burrow underground, your target will become very weak, and they won't find you so easily."
Zhou Hong immediately followed his grandfather's advice.
As expected, those peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouses lost track of Zhou Hong.
However, Zhou Hong's grandfather had clearly underestimated these giants.
Just as Zhou Hong burrowed underground, the very next second, a giant hand scooped up the area where Zhou Hong was.
Even if Zhou Hong continued to drill deeper into the soil, he would only end up on the giant's palm.
"Still trying to escape?" A cold snort echoed. The soil around Zhou Hong instantly dispersed, and Zhou Hong revealed his true form. Looking left and right, Zhou Hong had fallen into the palm of one of the giant powerhouses. The Sudana Novel Network.
The giant's palm was like a small basketball court to Zhou Hong. Zhou Hong had nowhere to escape.
"It's over." The last thought that flashed through Zhou Hong's mind was that he had no chance of escape.
Zhou Hong's grandfather was also extremely dejected. Man proposes, and heaven disposes. He had planned to capture another 900,000 giants, but before he could capture even one, Zhou Hong had walked right into a trap and been captured by a peak Nascent Soul stage giant.
"Grandfather? What do we do now? If you have a solution, tell me quickly," Zhou Hong anxiously called out to his grandfather, after all, his grandfather had once been an Immortal King.
"There's no way. Even though I was once an Immortal King, I have no power. In the face of such absolute strength, all plans are useless," Zhou Hong's grandfather said with great frustration.
"Are we really going to just wait to die then?"
Zhou Hong's grandfather remained silent.
However, at this moment, Zhou Hong suddenly remembered that he still had an item he hadn't used.
"That's right, how could I have forgotten about it?" Zhou Hong slapped his forehead. He had obtained a immortal mansion on the Tianyang Continent before. While that immortal mansion had no offensive power, anyone hiding inside would be impenetrable unless they were an immortal.
"Hahaha." Zhou Hong let out a loud laugh.
Zhou Hong's grandfather also finally remembered. He had been too dejected earlier and had momentarily forgotten that Zhou Hong possessed such an item.
The next instant, Zhou Hong flipped his hand, and an immortal mansion appeared before him. Zhou Hong immediately dashed into the immortal mansion.
However, the immortal mansion appeared in the giant's palm, looking like a small toy house.
The giant looked at the small house in his hand with confusion. He could no longer lock onto Zhou Hong.
The other peak Nascent Soul stage giants also gathered around.
"City Lord, where is that kid?"
"He was just in my hand, locked onto and unable to move, but in the next moment, he suddenly took out a house, entered it, and then the connection was lost."
"What kind of house is this? By the way, could this kid be the lowly human mentioned in the king's nationwide arrest warrant issued just now?"
"Most likely. Let me find him." The peak Nascent Soul stage powerhouse who had captured Zhou Hong was called City Lord by the others, indicating his significant status, which explained how he so easily shattered Zhou Hong's Zhuxian Great Array.
However, he found it impossible to break through Zhou Hong's immortal mansion. No matter what method he used, the small toy house placed in his palm remained perfectly intact.
"How is this possible? What is this thing?" Those peak Nascent Soul stage giants were clearly lacking in knowledge.
One of the peak Nascent Soul stage men frowned and said, "I once heard some people who descended from the immortal realm mention a magical artifact called an immortal mansion. Could this be it?"
"Impossible. How could this lowly human possibly obtain such a thing?"
"Let's not worry about that for now. Take him to the King immediately, and then we'll discuss it. If that doesn't work, let the King refine this immortal mansion. Then, capturing him will be a simple matter."
"Alright, let's head to Shangdu."
Those peak Nascent Soul stage giants immediately took the immortal mansion towards what they called Shangdu.
Zhou Hong was currently standing in the living room of the immortal mansion. To Zhou Hong, this kind of immortal mansion was no different from a human residence. However, even though Zhou Hong was hiding inside, he dared not go out, feeling as if he had imprisoned himself, which was truly frustrating.
Zhou Hong had naturally heard what those giants had said. Although Zhou Hong believed that the immortal mansion was not that fragile, he couldn't be entirely sure if they took this immortal mansion to Shangdu, there might be even more powerful giants who could refine the immortal mansion.
"Whatever, that's all I can do now. If I can't escape this calamity, then it's fate," Zhou Hong let out a wry smile. He could feel that the immortal mansion was currently flying at high speed in the sky. Through the sky of the immortal mansion, Zhou Hong also saw a huge finger, which was that of one of the giants, firmly gripping the immortal mansion.
