Chapter 316 — The Ginseng Baby Flips Its Hand and Crushes the Great Dao

"It's said that contestant Shi Zhuo's Steel Rock Snake has trained its earth escape skill to the masterful level, able to fuse perfectly with the earth, making it almost impossible to detect. Contestant Shi Zhuo once used this very move to kill a King-tier fierce beast on an Overlord-level creature's territory and escape unscathed, so in theory, their movements are extremely covert."

The two commentators immediately seized on the anomaly and began introducing Shi Zhuo's battle record to everyone.

But no matter how they talked him up, once discovered, it was discovered. Soon, on the screen, the ginseng baby stopped releasing its sweet vapor, and its green eyes gazed deep into the earth.

Then, it lightly hopped down from the rock, bent over, and pressed its palm to the ground!

Combo skill, Earth Fiend!

Rumble rumble.

The next moment, a scene that silenced every viewer appeared.

As the ginseng baby pressed its palm to the ground, the earth around it, centered on it, instantly began to shake violently.

With a "boom," on the screen, the ground behind Shi Jin and the ginseng baby split open, and a wooden colossus grew out of it.

Then, a mass of earth-brown matter swept over this wooden colossus, and its volume was still wildly multiplying and growing.

In just two seconds, amid astonishing transformation, this wooden colossus born behind Shi Jin and the ginseng baby expanded to a height of a hundred meters, and limbs began to extend from its body, along with a head, becoming a majestic hundred-meter earth-brown colossus!

The colossal wooden idol's height had already made it the focal point of the entire screen.

The appearance of a super-tier combination skill over a hundred meters tall plunged the space before Shi Jin and the others into genuine chaos, as though the Iron-eating Beast had just cowed the entire arena.

Earth Chain + Hardening + Plant Control + Lush Growth — a super-tier combination skill. An earth fiend sustained by absorbing the power of the earth itself had appeared!!!

Many people's expressions went blank.

What the hell... what is that!!!

That Ginseng Baby... what did it just do!!!

Countless hearts screamed silently.

They compared, in defiance of all reason, the Ginseng Baby's tiny frame with that colossal wooden god.

Meanwhile, at the scene.

Deep underground.

Shi Zhuo cautiously drove his Steel Rock Snake forward, but in the next instant their faces changed abruptly as they felt the tremendous upheaval in the earth.

He sensed danger.

But by then it was too late. A deterrence of transcendent mastery pierced straight through the earth, plunging deep into the underground, and the Steel Rock Snake's pupils shrank violently as it was frozen in place.

The next moment, the ground shook even more violently.

From the audience's viewpoint, after the earth fiend was summoned, the Ginseng Baby straightened up and gave its palm a light turn.

And with that turn, the earth fiend moved as well — its enormous arm... swung down swiftly, its palm driving straight into the earth.

The entire palm was like five mountain peaks, immense beyond measure, shrouding everything, covering everything. Then it touched the ground — and in that instant the earth split apart, countless rocks and clouds of dust bursting into the air. The solid ground seemed no more than soft mud before the giant hand of the earth fiend, and amid a rumbling "boom," moments later every mouth in the crowd fell open in shock!

BOOM!!!

The Ginseng Baby turned its palm and crushed the great earth.

Even those not present felt as though they had witnessed the carnage firsthand.

This — this is just...

The picture blurred, wreathed in smoke.

When people could see clearly again, all they saw was Shi Jin and the Ginseng Baby, and behind them the earth fiend, still posed like a god.

Its arm and palm had already withdrawn from the earth. And what was more — unlike when it had plunged into the ground, the earth fiend's palm now clutched an enormous serpent, its face a mask of utter terror!!!

"ROAR!!!"

The Steel Rock Snake's whole body was pinned; it thrashed with all its might, but to no avail — its strength was utterly overwhelmed!!

At the same time, a figure emerged pale-faced from the Steel Rock Snake's body. Once out, he gaped in shock at the hundred-meter earth fiend before him, at Shi Jin not far away with arms crossed, watching him calmly, and at the Ginseng Baby, also with arms crossed — and sank into boundless bewilderment.

His mind simply shattered.

Who am I, where am I, what... is going on here, what on earth... just happened...

He was indeed the first contestant to encounter Shi Jin — but the tragedy was that before he even saw Shi Jin, he had been suppressed...

Outside.

Countless spectators gaped once more, staring at the scene in incomprehension. The teachers and students of Modu University rose to their feet as one, eyes glazed, mouths running with "holy shit," utterly robbed of the capacity to think!

The teachers and students of the Ancient Capital and Imperial Capital universities felt only that this Ginseng Baby was more dreadful, more terrifying than they had imagined. The spectators online and the two commentators were all shaken to the core, their understanding of power shattered yet again.

Don't tell them... that this was created by that Ginseng Baby — this thing, is this really the Ginseng Baby???

When Shi Zhuo had set out, many had sweated for Shi Jin's sake; now, watching the Steel Rock Snake pinned and helpless, and Shi Zhuo pale as death, frozen stiff with fright on the spot, they felt only that this world had gone mad — this Ginseng Baby could not only heal, its combat power was even more terrifying!!!

How could every one of Shi Ying's pet beasts be such a monster! Even the teachers and students of Imperial Capital University, who trusted Gao Xuan utterly, such as Yin Huan and the others, now changed expression, a hundred million worries added — Captain Gao, Captain Gao should be fine, right...
