When dealing with stuck parts like your drain plug, sometimes "cranking" on it with a big wrench won't work to get it loose.
Instead, get the wrench on the bolt, hold it tight with one hand (like you are trying to loosen it), and HIT the end of the wrench with a hammer (in the direction needed to loosen the bolt). Keep doing this a few times, if needed, and the impacts might break it loose. Just make sure you have a good grip on everything, don't let the wrench go flying, and make sure the wrench is tight on the bolt too, so it doesn't round off, or fly off etc.
My second suggestion is heat from a torch. I know you don't have one, but it really makes a difference!
