Cultivating in the Wizard World-Chapter 267 - 238: Codename: Black Giant

Two years later.

Purgatory Sulfur Plane.

In the massive circular "Incubation Pool" with a diameter exceeding a hundred meters, special magma gleaming with a blood-red hue was slowly churning as if it were a living creature.

And at its very center, a huge pitch-black figure was slowly taking shape.

Jeming stood at the edge of the Incubation Pool, separated by a transparent and high-strength Energy Observation Shield, watching the menacingly shaped Black Giant slowly rising from the pool, his eyes showing a nearly obsessive look of satisfaction.

The modified Magma Giant was pitch black all over, and its black surface was exceptionally smooth, reflecting no light at all.

It seemed as if its entire body was completely wrapped in a layer of black metal.

Even its pair of giant eyes were a pure, non-reflective pitch black.

But if you looked closely, you would find that its black surface was not a static solid.

The layer of "black metal" appeared like a living liquid, constantly in a subtle, irregular state of flow over its surface.

Although its entire body seemed stable, all parts of its surface were moving slightly.

The most bizarre thing was that although it was immersed in searing magma that could melt steel, it continuously emitted a piercing coldness all around!

Jeming was extremely satisfied with this scene before him.

The modified Black Giant in front of him almost perfectly matched his initial design vision!

However, just at this moment, the newly formed, still somewhat sluggish Black Giant suddenly began to struggle fervently!

Its emotionless giant eyes slowly rotated, then fixed their gaze firmly on Jeming, the "creator"!

—It had lost control!

Seeing this, Jeming merely raised an eyebrow slightly, not exhibiting any terrified emotions.

This situation was within his expectations.

It’s perfectly normal for a brand-new, powerful creation to exhibit some primal wilderness at birth.

He merely tapped a few times on a hovering terminal screen beside him, recording a memo: [Remember to enhance the soul and mind control methods of newly modified species next time.]

"Roar!!!"

With a roar filled with a violent aura, the Black Giant leaped out of the boiling Incubation Pool!

Its massive body, carrying an incomparable sense of oppression, stirred the scorching magma and icy chill, launching an attack on Jeming!

But seeing this, Jeming instead smiled.

"That’s great! It’s a perfect opportunity to personally test this thing’s combat capabilities and specific state."

He unhesitatingly deactivated the Observation Shield in front of him.

The Black Giant appeared massive and heavy, yet its movements were exaggeratedly swift!

Even Jeming, facing this Black Giant, could barely perceive just a blur caused by its high-speed movement!

Bang—!

Hardly having any time to react, he had just managed to construct an Energy Protective Shield in front of him when it was struck heavily by the opponent’s overwhelming iron fist!

The tremendous impact, incredibly massive, instantly sent him flying backward!

"Interesting!"

Jeming stabilized himself in mid-air without hesitation and activated the "Acceleration" Witchcraft Artifact.

By enhancing his reaction speed with "Acceleration," Jeming finally managed to catch up with the phantom-like movement trajectory of his opponent.

Flying in the vast sky of the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, looking below at the Black Giant once again charging toward him like a black cannonball, Jeming even had the presence of mind to silently evaluate its condition in his mind:

"Very impressive... Judging by this incredible acceleration speed, it indeed has perfectly inherited the innate temporal talent ability of the Yeti."

With a thought, he voluntarily removed all the Protective Shields in front of him, the muscles in his right arm bulged instantly, wrapped in a layer of solid energy.

Boom—!

Two disproportionally sized fists collided fiercely!

The Black Giant was not only mighty in strength.

In the instant their fists met, a fierce coldness, almost freezing the soul, transmitted from the contact surface of the fists instantaneously throughout Jeming’s body!

At that moment, he felt as though his blood was about to freeze!

His body experienced a momentary rigidity due to the sudden extreme cold, severely hindering his movements!

And it was due to this brief moment of stiffness that Jeming had no time to mount any effective resistance!

"Damn!"

Bang!

The next second, he was struck squarely in the face by the opponent’s other iron fist that followed seamlessly!

Sending him flying back like a kite with a broken string again!

Plop!

This time, Jeming crashed directly into the man-made, ever-flowing sea of lava nearby.

Jeming clambered out of the scorching magma in a sorry state.

Feeling the burning pain on his face, he couldn’t help but grimace and rub his face, summarizing in his mind again: "The power...isn’t bad, this absurd coldness...it seems its ability to absorb heat is far more exaggerated than I expected!"

So far, Jeming was very satisfied with the performance of the black giant.

Why does this black giant exude such bone-chilling coldness, even in the searing magma pool?

And why does it seem unaffected by the external high temperatures?

Because, in essence, instead of "emitting" coldness, it is frantically "absorbing" all the heat in the surrounding environment!

In the Wizard World, there are two mainstream methods of creating "coldness."

One method is to utilize elements associated with frost, death, etc., to actively "release" cold energy.

The other, similar to Jeming’s previous life, adheres to the law of energy conservation, passively creating a low-temperature area by "absorbing" external heat.

The reason the black giant exhibits such bizarre behavior is that it fundamentally remains a "magma giant."

Its internal heat content is extremely high, akin to a walking miniature sun.

The "hybrid engine," reconstructed from the cores of a yeti and a magma giant, continuously absorbs all the external heat!

Even "light," a wave containing energy, is largely absorbed by it.

That’s why its skin appears as that pure black color that can swallow all light!

Achieving this relies heavily on two core technologies.

One is the "Water Element" heat extraction technology and energy cycle. This comes from Jeming’s analysis of the "Water Element Origin."

The other is the "Fire Element" energy conversion technology, which he previously developed while studying the magma giant.

Therefore, the design of this black giant is quite insidious.

When faced with an opponent who knows nothing about it, the opponent, seeing the black giant’s chilling aura, would naturally and unhesitatingly choose to use "fire" attribute attacks to counteract it according to normal battle strategy.

But in reality, any fire attribute attack would only serve as efficient recharging for it!

When the opponent, having suffered a setback, decides to use "water" attribute or frost attribute to create low temperatures for an attack,

the special ability brought by the "Fire Element" energy conversion technology allows the black giant to still absorb the energy released by that coldness!

Even other forms, like lightning or pure energy impacts, most of their energy will be absorbed by its surface, which is as if a "black hole"!

The real strategy to counter this creature should also involve choosing a "heat absorption" method to compete with it for energy in the environment.

This would significantly increase its energy consumption!

Or use the purest physical kinetic energy attacks!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

In the Purgatory Sulfur Plane, the fierce battle continued.

Jeming, relying on his agile skills and rich combat experience, engaged in a thrilling duel with the black giant, while continually summarizing its situation:

"Its immunity to energy attacks is extremely strong! One could even say most conventional energy attacks only serve to recharge it!"

"The combined effects of the talents from both the yeti and magma giant are far better than I anticipated!"

"Although the innate vast energy reserves of the magma giant are somewhat diminished in this creature, its own reserves, plus its ability to absorb external forces continuously, still make its energy reserves exaggerated to the extreme!"

"And this vast energy allows the yeti’s time talent to achieve its maximum effect!"

It’s not as formidable as when the two races collaborated in the Ice and Flame Plane, creating an "absolute domain" around them with a "time pause" effect.

However, this "black giant," supported by its massive energy supply, can super accelerate its own time while also creating a force field around its body that slightly slows down the flow of external time!

So, even though both sides are only at the second level, Jeming, in his normal state without using full power, couldn’t even clearly see the specific movements of this black giant!

Ultimately, after considerable effort, Jeming finally managed to completely defeat the black giant.

"Although theoretically its weakness should be physical attacks, it still retains the high resistance to physical damage typical of elemental creatures... I’m exhausted from hitting it..."

Looking at the creation on the ground, still growling unwillingly, Jeming felt incredibly satisfied.

The super high speed brought by the time domain, along with its near-complete immunity to energy attacks due to its energy absorption traits,

makes it no exaggeration to say that this black giant even poses a significant "first encounter kill" threat when facing official wizards of the same level.

"Now, it’s time to give you a name..."

Jeming walked towards the black giant lying on the ground.

According to the official naming conventions of the Wizard Civilization, this new creation should be named: "Energy-Absorbing·Temporal Disorder·Elemental Hybrid Lifeform."

Jeming found this name to be simply too complex.

Moreover, it could easily reveal information about the black giant.

Jeming thought for a moment, extended his hand, and summoned a floating terminal beside him.

He opened the light screen and inputted a new name for it.

[Codename: Black Giant!]
