Liang Baiyin's face was flushed red. She took several steps back, looking at Zhou Leng with confusion.

Zhou Leng's entire body was fiery red, continuously expanding. In no time, he had grown a full meter taller and was still growing.

Finally, his height exceeded three meters.

His well-sculpted body was exposed to the air, as if finely carved and polished from marble.

Every muscle was clearly defined, not as coarse as a giant's, nor as bulging as a dwarf's, more graceful, more aesthetic.

His skin reflected sunlight, like refined copper, like steel.

His eyes were exceptionally bright, like two large lamps in the night.

Every muscle seemed to contain its own heartbeat, gently pulsating.

The surging aura and giant's pressure spread in all directions.

The entire body seemed as if it was about to explode.

Snap...

Finally, even the last piece of clothing was torn apart.

Mountain and River Origin cried and laughed as he took out his own clothes and wrapped them around Zhou Leng's waist.

The giant saw this scene and immediately understood.

This human has triggered the Giant Body of Wonders.

From now on, this person's body will gradually catch up with giants of the same realm, until it nearly equals them.

Zhou Leng's height temporarily reached 3.2 meters.

His body continuously shattered and reformed.

Zhou Leng closed his eyes, gritting his teeth, his face showing an expression of pain.

Because even in the midst of an illusion, even protected by the power of ancestral protection, the body experienced unbearable intense pain.

Muscles, bones, blood, even meridians and dantian were being reshaped.

Soon, Zhou Leng became mentally disoriented.

More fragments of giant memories emerged in his mind.

Those memory fragments were like fine needles, flying through his brain.

Occasionally, some extremely grand scenes would flash by.

A gigantic brass pendulum, with a round secret-patterned pendulum hanging from a long rod, suspended at the far end of the starry sky.

The brass pendulum swung from side to side, causing the heavens and earth to shake, galaxies to revolve, swaying with it.

An incomprehensibly tall giant, ablaze with fire, carrying a massive sun, surrounded by planets, striding through the void, constantly moving forward.

A vast divine spirit shadow, with a single slap, obliterated an entire star system to ashes.

In the end, Zhou Leng suffered to the point of conjuring various hallucinations.

Countless tiny giants wielding axes, saws, chisels, and spades hammered and clattered on his body.

These tiny giants wreaked havoc for a while, replaced by new giants, who placed bricks, stones, and wood strips on his body's damaged parts, using bone ash to patch them up.

Finally, there were tiny giants holding electric sanders, buzzing as the grinding wheels finely polished his body, sending sparks flying everywhere.

Dong...

The melodious sound of an ancient bell rang out.

This round of ancestral protection ended.

Zhou Leng slowly opened his eyes, feeling the power in his body.

The internal heat flowed like streams of lava.

The meridians and blood vessels in his body had been greatly expanded.

The total amount of true qi increased, the flow of qi blood strengthened, as if both heart and organs were cast in steel, resounding with thunderous rumbles.

"How do you feel?" Molten Hammer lifted head for the first time to look at Zhou Leng.

"Not bad..." Zhou Leng's voice was deeper, echoing like in a vast underground palace.

No one left, all eyes were fixed on Zhou Leng.

Some giantesses were constantly sizing up Zhou Leng.

Lou Fei Qiong and Jax were filled with endless emotion, never expecting Zhou Leng to soar to such heights.

Many martial clan races never managed to trigger the Body of Wonders in their entire life.

At this moment, an eight-meter-tall giant walked in, followed by two innate giants.

Many giants bowed their heads in salute, as this was Mountain River Celestial Peak, the renowned Grandmaster Giant, future leader of the Mountain and River Tribe.

Mountain River Oak spoke, "Uncle."

Mountain and River Origin nodded at his father.

The Shanhe Brothers' heads didn't reach Mountain River Celestial Peak's waist.

Amidst this group of people, the towering Mountain River Celestial Peak seemed like feeding pigs in a pigsty.

"You may leave now." Mountain River Celestial Peak looked around at the others.

A giant with bronze hues sprinkled all over his body shouted, "Human, what is your name?"

"Zhou Leng." Zhou Leng looked towards that person.

"Thank you for inviting His Majesty the King of Armor." The giant laughed heartily, giving Zhou Leng's shoulder a hearty slap before striding away.

"I've remembered your name, I owe you a great debt!"

Another giant spoke, gave Zhou Leng's shoulder a slap, and then left.

This ancestral protection's power was equivalent to five or six normal instances, saving several years for all the giants.

Mountain River Oak hurriedly explained, "This is a shoulder-patting ceremony, signifying recognition of you. The force is a courtesy, similar to your humans' Water Splashing Festival."

Zhou Leng nodded.

Next, many giants passed by, giving Zhou Leng's shoulder a slap before leaving.

Other tribes also expressed their gratitude, even the demons and beastmen.

After Jax expressed his thanks, he walked to the door, glanced back at Zhou Leng's massive body, his eyes flickering.

He hoped Zhou Leng would be stronger, to provide a better excuse for his previous failure.

But Zhou Leng was a bit too strong, starting to worry about breaking the previous agreement.

The Trup family not only trades with Giants but their trade volume is twice that of Dwarves.

After everyone left, Mountain River Celestial Peak walked to Zhou Leng's side and asked, "Have you encountered the heroic spirit of His Majesty the King of Armor?"

Zhou Leng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Mountain River Celestial Peak bent down, reached out and patted Zhou Leng's shoulder, and said, "Very well, from today on, you are the Frost Giant Duke of our Giant Race."

Mountain River Oak and Molten Hammer gasped in surprise, grinning happily.

Giant Duke itself is an extremely high status, above which is the Giant Chief.

Being further titled as 'Frost Giant Duke', the status becomes even more exceptional.

"You're staying at the Dwarf Embassy?" Mountain River Celestial Peak asked.

"Yes."

Zhou Leng glanced at this eight-meter-tall giant.

Ordinary Giants have green skin, Innate Giants have bronze skin, this Grandmaster-level Mountain River Celestial Peak has slightly greenish-silver skin.

"Tomorrow we'll host a simple conferring ceremony for you, or, in a few months, we'll have a grander ceremony." Mountain River Celestial Peak said.

"The simpler the better, preferably not announced at all." Zhou Leng said.

Mountain River Celestial Peak looked at Zhou Leng and said, "Alright, you're a very smart child, you'll go further than others. Let's talk as we walk."

Several people followed Mountain River Celestial Peak outside.

Liang Baiyin walked along, occasionally glancing at Zhou Leng, blushing, then curiously looking at the Mountain River Celestial Peak, as tall as a three or four-story building.

Mountain River Celestial Peak has come to Rucheng multiple times, she had seen him before.

Mountain River Celestial Peak walked a few steps, suddenly asked: "Are you interested in marrying one of our Giantess?"

"What?" Zhou Leng hadn't considered it at all.

"If not marry, just leave a few seeds, leave one and I'll give you a billion Long Guoyuan, seven or eight should be enough."

Zhou Leng suddenly understood the main reason for the Giant Race conferring him.

Others looked at Zhou Leng and laughed, Liang Baiyin also smiled.

"I don't want to for now..." Zhou Leng said.

"Alright, when you want to, contact us. No need for money, something else would do, anything within the Giant Race can be discussed." Mountain River Celestial Peak said.

Zhou Leng looked towards Mountain River Origin.

Mountain River Origin shrugged, Giants are just so direct, you'll get used to it.

Zhou Leng expressed understanding, after all, he's a... man.

"As customary, being the Frost Giant Duke, you will gain a piece of territory, a mine vein, and a 'Dragon Skull'. The first two need time, the latter you can't use yet, come to claim the Dragon Skull once you advance to Innate."

"Dragon Skull…" Zhou Leng's face showed joy.

Dragon Skull is an extremely important treasure to the Giant Race, a kind that lies between Pill and Treasure Medicine, overall it resembles a Pill.

It is strictly controlled by the Giant Royal Court, even Dwarves can't obtain it without rendering great service, let alone Humans who are further detached.

The refining process of Dragon Skull is very peculiar.

The entirety of a Giant Dragon's power essence is refined into its skull.

Then paired with various treasures and divine medicines from Giant World, finally forming a small dragon head treasure.

The usage method is also special, by cutting open the back, connecting the dragon head between the shoulder blades on the spine.

Afterwards, slowly absorb the Dragon Skull's power.

Dragon Skull is generally the full power of Innate or even Grandmaster Giant Dragon, it immensely enhances a Giant.

It is the number one Treasure Medicine for Giants.

All current single Pills of humans can't compare.

Molten Hammer and Zhang Xinglie looked envious; they both worked hard all their lives but couldn't obtain such a treasure.

Mountain River Celestial Peak continued, "The salary of Frost Giant Duke will be distributed as usual. When the time comes, you can discuss with Origin and Oakwood to find a suitable treasure for yourself."

"Thank you, Uncle." Zhou Leng said.

Originally thought to leave the Armor King's Palace empty-handed, but unexpectedly gained so much.

"It's your own merit. If you hadn't entered the top two hundred of the Giant Trial, you wouldn't have gained all this. Next, you should conduct targeted cultivation, don't waste the Ancestral Protection. Your body…"

Mountain River Celestial Peak pinched Zhou Leng's body, causing him to wince slightly from pain.

"Hmm… indeed a bit weak, no, you're human… how are you so much stronger than expected? Oh, that's right, you're a Dwarf Duke, must have Steel Skin, hmm… and other powers…"

After examining, Mountain River Celestial Peak started slapping Zhou Leng's body, probing his physical power.

Each slap left a big red mark.

Friends around not only didn't sympathize with Zhou Leng, but watched with wide-eyed eagerness.

A body worthy of inspection by a Giant Grandmaster must be extraordinary.

Zhou Leng helplessly let his body sound out with slaps.

After finishing the slaps, Mountain River Celestial Peak stared at Zhou Leng, slightly furrowing his brows and said, "Your body is a bit unusual, it's potential is extraordinary, very extraordinary."

"Compared to me?" Mountain River Oak asked.

"You don't match up." Mountain River Celestial Peak said bluntly.

Mountain River Oak pouted, completely disbelieving.

"Dad, you're saying Zhou Leng has become different after obtaining the Giant Body?"

"He has some kind of power I can't describe inside, currently merging with the Giant Body."

Zhang Xinglie said, "Maybe it's a blessing from the King of Armor."

Mountain River Celestial Peak appeared skeptical but said, "Possibly. Hmm… can't say for sure now, when you can defeat Origin, come to me, I'll arrange for you to try the 'Giant Ancient Road'."

"Huh? He can defeat my brother?" Mountain River Oak was surprised.

"If he can't defeat, there's no point in going to Giant Ancient Road."

Mountain River Origin and Molten Hammer fell silent, that's the Giant Ancient Road, is Zhou Leng's potential this frightening?

"What is Giant Ancient Road?" Zhou Leng asked.

Mountain River Celestial Peak said, "The place the Starry Giants have walked through."
