Su Ye declined the invitation. He wanted to keep a low profile now and preferred not to attract too much attention; after all, he was not the Child of Destiny.
Staying under the radar was the true path to success.
The disciples of the Heaven Mending Pavilion and the War Goddess of the Deer-Hunting Academy did not press the issue. They hailed from ancient pure lands and knew that being overly persistent would only prove counterproductive.
At this moment, at the center of the storm, all eyes were fixed on Little One, who was still bathing in the Seven-Colored Divine Light in the air. He was tempering his spirit and comprehending the Seven-Colored Dao while bathed in that divine radiance.
Everyone gazed at Little One with burning eyes, each look more fervent than the last. The already extraordinary milk baby would become even more transcendent after being baptized by the Seven-Colored Divine Light.
Furthermore, the sensation caused by Little One breaking the record with a single leg was even more terrifying, spreading at an astonishing speed. The first to be shaken was the Void God Realm.
In the higher regions of the Void God Realm, many major powers had established their own cave dwellings. Upon learning the news from the stone tablets in the sky, these factions were left shocked and in disbelief.
"This milk baby is truly invincible. Once he rises in the future, he will surely be peerless."
"He broke three records in a single day. While the first two were a bit shameless, the last one was achieved through raw, genuine strength."
"His explosive power on one leg alone surpassed Shi Yi; his physical body must have reached the ultimate realm."
"Do not overlook that Da Wa either. Although he is not as good as the little one, being able to break Shi Yi's record with both legs is enough to be called world-shaking."
At this moment, many major powers dispatched experts to investigate the origins of the big and small milk babies, hoping to recruit them into their own camps.
Where there was a desire to recruit, there was naturally a desire to eliminate.
Take the Rain Clan, for example. They sent even more people to investigate the identity of the little one. They were not afraid of someone breaking Shi Yi's record; what they feared was a seven or eight-year-old existence, as someone of that age would touch upon the most sensitive existence in their hearts.
Initial Land.
Little One squeezed his way out of the crowd. He did not like the feeling of being the center of attention, as the gazes directed at him from all sides were too intense, making him feel a bit afraid—as if these people wanted to eat him.
"Bang."
Seeing the Big Gold Dog drooling at him, Little One kicked it directly. This dog actually dared to drool over him.
"You go and break that record of mine. The way these people are looking at me is too creepy."
Little One walked up to Su Ye and said this. Breaking the record felt great, but the aftermath made him feel very uncomfortable, and he wanted Su Ye to take his place.
Su Ye rolled his eyes at him. He had finally managed to distance himself; how could he possibly stick his head out again? After thinking for a moment, he said, "What are you afraid of? As long as you are more ruthless than them, they will be the ones who are afraid. In a while, some Beast Kings will arrive. If you suppress and eat all of them, these guys won't look at you with such burning eyes, but with fear instead."
"Beast Kings?"
Hearing this, Little One blinked his large eyes, his expression filled with anticipation.
He was not satisfied with just breaking Shi Yi's record.
That only meant he had surpassed his little brother in terms of physical body, but it could not determine their true combat power.
Now, he wanted to know his little brother's true strength, and the best way to do that was to use those Beast Kings as a benchmark.
"Let's not worry about the Beast Kings for now."
Little One took out three pieces of precious bone and looked at Su Ye with hopeful eyes. "I have already obtained three of the four pieces. If I get one more, I can obtain a complete precious technique."
"You want me to help you get that last piece of precious bone?"
"Yes."
Little One nodded and said, "You go and get that one, and I will let you study it for free. I know your eyes are special and you only need one look to master the original runes on the bones, but I have one here that you haven't seen yet. As long as you fetch that last piece, I'll let you see this one."
There were four pieces of precious bone in the passage of the Initial Land, forming a complete magic array. Little One had obtained one at the start, Su Ye had obtained one as compensation, and just now, Little One's one-legged record-breaking had affected the passage, granting him the third piece. Now, only the last piece remained; once obtained, one could acquire a complete and powerful precious technique.
Su Ye felt conflicted. This was a calculated trap—a trap Little One had set for him. Right now, the most eye-catching and dazzling person here was Little One, but if he were to break this dazzling person's record, he would inevitably be pushed to the forefront of the storm.
Little One saw that Su Ye was wavering and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He had understood the technique the other party had told him earlier; he knew that once he did it, it would inevitably cause a stir, but he had chosen to go through with it anyway. Now, the other party would surely make the same choice.
"This precious technique is no ordinary one; it involves space and possesses the ability of spatial displacement. If mastered well, one might even comprehend spatial teleportation. I just did a rough calculation; the teleportation distance isn't too far, only about a dozen meters, but if used in the middle of a battle to complete an instant teleportation, it would surely be world-shaking. And this is just a fragment; if it were complete, it would be even more powerful."
Little One toyed with the precious bone in his hand, acting very casual, as if he were talking to himself, yet also as if he were deliberately saying it for Su Ye to hear.
"Sigh."
Su Ye let out a sigh. This bait was something he could not refuse. He looked at Little One and said, "Even if I break the passage and shatter your record, do you think others will look down on you?"
"No."
Little One said with a serious little face, "But they will value you even more. You want to stay out of this? That's impossible. We share the blessings and face the hardships together."
"But I haven't enjoyed any blessings."
Su Ye looked at Little One with a somewhat resentful expression.
"How haven't you? Didn't I share this peerless precious technique with you?"
Little One said earnestly, his large eyes looking very innocent. Soon, he thought of something and grinned, "If you don't want to break that passage, you can break my record for the Greatest Plunderer instead."
"Forget it, I'll just break the passage."
Su Ye didn't even think about it, directly rejecting that proposal. He walked toward the passage of the Initial Land, looking at the large bluestone in front of him with a helpless expression. It wasn't that he wanted to go against this passage, but that the Bear Child was hell-bent on it.
Boom.
A deafening roar erupted as the passage, which had only just been restored, collapsed once again.
An ancient stone tablet manifested, displaying a single line of text: Shatter the Initial Ground passage...
Gaze after gaze turned toward them, filled with astonishment and shock; shattering the Initial Ground passage was simply too easy for them.
Many had attempted it just moments ago, yet none could even shake it, but these two Milk Babies were truly more formidable than the last, destroying it with effortless ease.
But is it really alright for you to keep destroying them one after another?
Su Ye ignored the strange looks from the crowd, tossing the precious bone in his hand directly to the Bear Child. He looked at the surrounding people, his expression somewhat helpless as he said, "Don't look at me like that. I was forced into this. This fellow has already obtained three precious bones, and now he wants the final one to complete the set of four and seize the full Ancient Precious Technique, so he forced me to help him gather them."
"Four precious bones?"
The crowd seized upon the most critical piece of information: that the little Milk Baby now possessed four precious bones, not just one or two.
Not far away, the smile on Little One's face froze. He hadn't acted himself not only to make things difficult for Su Ye, but also because he didn't want others to know he possessed four precious bones. Yet, Su Ye had blurted it out, instantly pushing him into the limelight.
At that moment, pairs of greedy, burning eyes locked onto Little One.
