Chapter 4903
Kai and his crew descended smoothly into the vortex, but the moment they entered, they were swarmed by a host of grotesque ghostly faces!
Each face was shrouded in black mist, with claw-like tendrils writhing around them!
“Keep moving!”
Kai activated his Indestructible Golden Body, instantly glowing with golden light. A shield of Supreme Fire flared up around the group!
Xiu Rui’s expression was grim. Though he was at the peak of Immortal Transformation, centuries of confinement had left him weakened and unrecovered!

And this was the Heavenly Realm—a place where even a peak Immortal Transformation cultivator couldn’t act recklessly!
Hu Mazi covered the rear, scowling at the dense cluster of ghost faces as he cursed, “Bloody hell! Got the guts to show your true form? Think this spook show scares anyone?”
With that, Hu Mazi hurled three talismans into the air!
Boom!
A massive explosion shook the vortex, unleashing a surge of raw energy!
A brilliant light erupted, illuminating the surroundings like daylight!
In that instant, Kai’s group saw it clearly—the countless ghost faces were actually growing from a towering figure radiating a deathly aura, wielding a massive war axe!
The tendrils and faces were like hair sprouting from its body!
Standing before this giant, Kai and his companions looked like mere ants!
“What the hell is that thing? Is this the bloke behind the cages?”
Kai swallowed hard, staring up at the mountain-sized figure!
Boom!
Before they could react, the giant swung its war axe, crashing down toward them!
A terrifying aura slammed into them as the tendrils and ghost faces launched a simultaneous assault!
Trapped in the narrow vortex, Kai’s group had nowhere to escape!
Xiu Rui’s eyes widened in fear, already regretting his escape from the cage!
If he died now, maybe he’d have been better off staying locked up. With time, he might’ve been released!
“Stupid sod! Think being tall makes you tough?”
Hu Mazi snarled and thrust his right palm forward!
A blue ice talisman materialized in his hand!
As it shattered, a wave of bone-chilling cold surged outward!
Boom!
In an instant, every aura, every tendril, every ghostly face was frozen solid!
The mountain-like giant froze mid-swing, its axe suspended in the air!
Time itself seemed to come to a halt!
Hu Mazi casually pointed at one of the tendrils!
Crack, crack, crack…
With a series of sharp snaps, everything encased in ice shattered into dust!
Xiu Rui stared at Hu Mazi, jaw slack, completely speechless!
Even Kai was impressed, grinning, “Not bad, Master Hu. You’ve got some serious skills…”
“Obviously! I was nearly a Heavenly Immortal, mate. Sure, I’ve been reincarnated, but all the tricks are still up here,” Hu Mazi said, tapping his temple with a smug grin. “Give me a little time in the Heavenly Realm, and I’ll be back to full power…”
“Then I’d better stick close to Master Hu for protection!” Kai chuckled.
“I’ve got your back—but you’ve got to hook me up with some ladies. You’re a magnet for them, so share the wealth!” Hu Mazi teased.
“Oi!” Kai rolled his eyes.
Xiu Rui, overhearing their banter, was completely at a loss for words.
“Just pulling your leg. I wouldn’t lay a finger on your women,” Hu Mazi said with a pat on Kai’s shoulder. “Let’s move. That thing was just a puppet. No way it’s the one behind these cages…”
Kai nodded, and the group surged forward through the vortex passage!
