Wild Giant

Wild Giant is a colossal Western Desert being whom Meng Hao transforms into a neo-demon through Righteous Bestowal. It becomes his mount, a heavy assault combatant, and one of the guardians entrusted with the Crow Divinity Tribe's survival.

Biography

Righteous Bestowal and Holy Snow City

The Wild Giant enters battle as a ninety-meter attacker wielding a three-hundred-meter sword. It has explosive physical strength but no cultivation base, limited sentience, and no developed speech. Meng Hao catches its descending sword and decides that killing such a creature would be wasteful. He repeatedly applies Righteous Bestowal, gathering ambient life qi and pouring Demonic Qi into the giant's head. Its instinctive resistance gives way to desire for that qi; green ferocity clears from its eyes, thought awakens, and it voluntarily yields. Western Desert Dragoneers consider this impossible because Wild Giant honor and blood ordinarily reject subjugation even by Grand Dragoneers. (Chapter 356)

The newly recognized neo-demon carries Meng Hao and Hanxue Shan into Holy Snow City and becomes Meng Hao's conspicuous personal mount. Its needs are simple but demanding: when it wakes to find no food, it roars the one word it can reliably say, “Meat,” until fed. Gu La is assigned as its caretaker. The giant transports Meng Hao through the city in long leaps and helps turn the supposedly anonymous alchemist into an unmistakable public figure. (Chapters 356–366)

Western Desert and reunion

After Holy Snow City falls, the Wild Giant and Gu La are buried in a Heavenly Pit until Meng Hao remembers and retrieves them. The giant then carries both men across the borderlands and can reshape its huge silhouette into a hill so passing tribes fail to notice them. A teleportation separates it and Gu La from Meng Hao. Gu La uses possession of the rare creature to establish himself as a rank-seven Dragoneer in the Crow Soldier Tribe, but that apparent ownership does not change the giant's allegiance. It recognizes Meng Hao immediately, responds to his voice and touch, and is reluctant to leave him even when he temporarily sends it back with its caretaker. (Chapters 389–391, 397, 413–418)

Five Poisons battles and transmogrification

While Meng Hao cultivates, a Five Poisons Dragoneer tries to seize the Wild Giant for its valuable blood and prestige. Thirty-two giant spiders cover it in hundreds of webs and injure it before Meng Hao intervenes. Its inability to break every binding shows that raw strength alone does not make it invulnerable to specialized neo-demon control. After being freed, it joins Meng Hao's horde as the Five Poisons war escalates. (Chapters 433–435)

The Wild Giant thrives in open battle. It charges ahead with Meng Hao riding on its frame and collides with a neo-demon horde thousands strong. When Meng Hao's mass Righteous Bestowal causes unprecedented simultaneous transmogrification, the giant becomes burlier and can pull a lightning bolt from the sky into its hand as a whip. It later enlarges to three hundred meters, channels its entire body's strength into one grotesquely expanded arm, and hurls Meng Hao over an army so the rest of the horde can form around him like a demonic arrow. This is the actual transfer of force associated with the giant: a physical throw that amplifies Meng Hao's speed, not a transfer of power through the lightning whip. (Chapters 438–442)

The giant also carries the mutated Thorn Rampart vine coiled around its body until Meng Hao deploys it. It continues through the Western Desert migration even when the violet rain suppresses cultivators toward mortality and its body is too large for a bag of holding. Its role shifts from mount to enduring member of a people on the move. (Chapters 450, 478–515)

Guardian of the Golden Crow Tribe

When Meng Hao leaves, the Wild Giant and Big Hairy retain his instruction to protect the Golden Crow Tribe. More than a century later, they still fight the Heavenly Pursuit invasion without fear of death. The giant loses an eye and becomes covered in wounds but refuses to abandon the defensive line. Meng Hao's return lets it join the tribe's counterattack, charging alongside cultivators, neo-demons, and Sacred Ancients against the army that nearly destroyed them. Its last supplied appearances therefore fulfill the loyalty created by Righteous Bestowal: it protects Meng Hao's people even when he is absent and no immediate command compels obedience. (Chapters 548, 550–552)

Appearance and personality

At ordinary scale the Wild Giant stands about ninety meters tall, carries a sword more than three times that height, and resembles a moving hill or small mountain. Its musculature can expand until it reaches three hundred meters, with a single arm growing to more than half the body's mass. Initially its eyes shine green and its behavior is almost purely animal. Righteous Bestowal awakens clearer thought and obedience, though its speech remains limited and its appetite for meat dominates peaceful scenes. It is restless in seclusion, eager for battle, and emotionally direct. Recognition of Meng Hao survives separation and another Dragoneer's claims, while its century-long defense of the Golden Crow Tribe shows that its loyalty persists beyond food or immediate coercion. (Chapters 356–359, 389, 413–418, 433–442, 548–552)

Abilities and cultivation

Righteous Bestowal and neo-demon transformation

Before Meng Hao's intervention, the giant cannot cultivate and relies on physical power roughly comparable to the great circle of late Foundation Establishment. Righteous Bestowal gathers life qi, grants the Demon Sealer's approval, and infuses Demonic Qi so a living creature can become Demonic. For the Wild Giant, the process expands sentience and changes voluntary allegiance rather than merely imposing a control seal. It still depends on Meng Hao's bestowal and later mass transmogrification for supernatural development; it does not independently learn a human cultivation system. (Chapter 356)

Colossal strength and endurance

The giant can swing a three-hundred-meter sword, quake the ground with a charge, leap hundreds of meters, and carry multiple passengers across long distances. Its body endures migration, suppression by violet rain, large battles, severe wounds, and the loss of an eye. Strength is not the same as invulnerability: powerful spider webs can bind it, concentrated attacks injure it, and its enormous body cannot fit inside a normal bag of holding. (Chapters 356–359, 389, 433–435, 478, 548–552)

Size and muscle transformation

During transmogrified combat, the Wild Giant grows from ninety to three hundred meters. It can redirect blood and muscular force into its right arm until the limb becomes disproportionately massive. By throwing Meng Hao at that point, it converts stored bodily force into acceleration, launching him across more than a thousand meters of defended battlefield. The maneuver temporarily specializes the body for one throw rather than granting Meng Hao the giant's strength permanently. (Chapters 441–442)

Lightning whip

After the neo-demon horde transmogrifies, the giant reaches into the sky, catches a descending lightning bolt, and shapes it into a whip. The scene establishes an elemental weapon that extends its reach and battlefield threat. The corpus does not show the whip transferring cultivation or lightning power into Meng Hao; the later power transfer is explicitly the momentum of the giant's physical throw. (Chapters 441–442)

Hill camouflage

The Wild Giant can change its outer form into a hill, hiding Meng Hao and itself from passing Western Desert tribes. The disguise is useful for avoiding attention but remains stationary terrain mimicry rather than full human shapeshifting. Once movement or combat begins, the enormous body becomes conspicuous again. (Chapter 389)

Mount and coordinated assault

It follows silent riding instructions, carries Meng Hao above battlefield obstacles, and serves as the first stage of combined neo-demon maneuvers. In the demonic-arrow assault, the giant supplies the initial launch while mosquitoes, crows, crocodile, lizard, and Black Bat form aerodynamic and defensive layers around Meng Hao. Its value lies in coordination with a Dragoneer and horde, not independent tactical complexity. (Chapters 359, 389–390, 438–442)

Thorn Rampart carrier

A blood-colored mutated vine can remain wrapped around the giant until Meng Hao orders deployment. Once released, the vine burrows into the earth and raises a huge field of protective thorns around the Crow Divinity Tribes. The plant belongs to Meng Hao's cultivated neo-demon resources; the giant transports it but does not personally generate or command the Thorn Rampart. (Chapter 450)

Relationships

• Meng Hao: Demon Sealer who awakens its sentience, rider whose commands it follows, and master whose tribe it protects through a century of separation.
• Gu La: Caretaker responsible for feeding it; his temporary public claim of ownership never supplants the giant's recognition of Meng Hao.
• Hanxue Shan: First passenger whom the newly subdued giant lifts onto its palm and carries toward Holy Snow City.
• Big Hairy: Fellow neo-demon guardian who fights beside it in the Five Poisons war and the defense of the Golden Crow Tribe.
• Golden Crow Tribe: Community entrusted to its protection after Meng Hao's departure.

Items

• Enormous sword: Three-hundred-meter physical weapon used before and immediately around its Righteous Bestowal; Meng Hao catches it bare-handed during their first clash. (Chapter 356)
• Lightning whip: Bolt of heavenly lightning shaped into a whip after transmogrification. (Chapter 441)
• Thorn Rampart vine: Mutated defensive neo-demon carried around its body until Meng Hao commands the vine to deploy. (Chapter 450)
