"We've been discovered." Hearing Xiao Meng's voice, Xiao Tian could not help twitching his mouth, his expression turning rather unpleasant.
Little Dot's large eyes rolled around as he stared ahead, a strange look appearing on his face.
"Brother, for the Taiyi True Water, let's charge!"
Little Dot said solemnly. Success was found in the details, wealth in danger. To hell with the petty Rain Clan.
"Don't be reckless. These people are Sealed Ones; we're no match for them." Xiao Tian's hair stood on end at once, his eyes widening as he hurriedly grabbed the bear child, afraid he would do something foolish.
"Red, what are you trying to do?" Little Dot noticed that the Big Red Bird was quietly backing away. He immediately grabbed it by the neck. This damned bird was utterly disloyal and wanted to abandon them and flee.
"Master, please spare me. You want to go crazy, but you can't drag me down with you! This isn't how you play! I... I'm still young. I don't want to die!" The Big Red Bird was nearly in tears. How could it still fail to understand? The Rain Clan was this vicious child's greatest enemy. A few days ago, this bear child must have been chased by them until there was nowhere to flee in heaven or earth, before finally encountering it in the air.
And now, this devil actually intended to drag them into the mess and have them face his great enemies with him. The shameless brat even had the nerve to make it sound so righteous.
If it had not known him, the Big Red Bird would certainly have thought he only wanted to seize the Taiyi True Water. But after spending the past few days with him, it knew exactly what kind of creature this damned child was.
He was far too shameless. He wanted to scam everyone he met, not even sparing birds.
Little Dot's face darkened. He nearly could not resist taking out the Golden Bone Scissors on the spot and snipping off this thieving bird's neck.
"Red, as martial cultivators, if we are all as timid and fearful as you, without a fearless heart and unwilling to fight bloody battles, how will we ever advance further and seek breakthroughs in the future?" Little Dot declared with righteous fervor.
Hearing this, the Big Red Bird's heart trembled, as if some great Dao had emerged within it, urging it to join the bloody battle.
But the next moment, it saw the bear child glance sideways at the silver-robed youth beside him, the corners of his mouth curling upward as a trace of cunning flashed through his eyes.
A flash of insight crossed the Big Red Bird's mind, and it immediately sensed that something was wrong. It suddenly understood and nearly spat out three liters of blood. This damned child was far too wicked. Though those words seemed to be directed at it, they were actually meant for the silver-robed youth.
He was using it to trick the young man beside him!
Sure enough, the silver-robed youth immediately revealed a determined expression, his fighting spirit soaring. This was the prelude to joining the bloody battle.
Little Dot secretly observed Xiao Tian and felt that he needed to add a little more seasoning. Thus, he shouted forcefully, "As martial cultivators, our spines shall not bend! Better to take one step forward and die than take half a step back and live! When we meet the strong, fight! When we meet great enemies, kill!"
The instant he finished speaking, he dragged the Big Red Bird by the neck and charged out.
"Master, let go! My neck is about to break! Let go, quickly..." The Big Red Bird was going mad. What did this damned child take it for... a chained warhammer?
"Stupid bird, I know what you're planning the instant you twitch your butt. Don't try any tricks, or I'll twist your neck off right away. After killing our great enemies, I can toss you into a pot and stew you to celebrate." Little Dot warned, baring a mouthful of snowy-white teeth that ground together with a creak.
"I won't run. Isn't that enough? Let go already, I'm about to suffocate..." the Big Red Bird wailed.
"Rain Clan, you're truly shameless! So many of you bullying my big brother alone—what kind of skill is that?" Little Dot howled as he came charging over while dragging the Big Red Bird.
Xiao Meng: "..."
He truly was a bear child hated by gods and men alike. Xiao Meng's face darkened. He found the words "big brother" incredibly grating.
Where had this little brat come from?!
The Rain Clan members were slightly stunned.
"Where did this little bastard come from? Are you looking to die?" an elder shouted sternly, murderous light blooming in his eyes.
"Kill him too. Anyone who dares provoke the dignity of my Rain Clan deserves to have his body and soul destroyed," a middle-aged man said.
Yu Wencheng stared at the bear child. He could not shake the feeling that the child looked familiar.
"Your Rain Clan is certainly imposing," Xiao Tian, the silver-robed youth, said after disguising himself somewhat, then charged out as well.
"Brother, today you and I shall stand united. Together, we'll smash these old bastards of the Rain Clan!" Little Dot said sonorously, looking like a little old man.
Xiao Tian's face twitched for no reason. Something felt off, but he could not put his finger on it.
Xiao Meng tugged at the corner of his mouth. This bear child had really tricked that promising young man badly.
"Kill!"
One man roared. Anyone who dared challenge the Rain Clan's might would be killed without mercy.
"Big brother, how do we split up the nine of them?" Little Dot shouted.
"You little tabby cat, fuck your grandfather! Call me Meng Bro! If you fucking call me big brother again, I'll deal with you first!" Xiao Meng said with a dark face. "I'll take five. The remaining four are yours."
"Meng Bro?"
Little Dot called out, "Are you Da Meng?"
Xiao Meng nearly stumbled and fell to the ground. This damned child really was an oddball.
"Brother, be careful. These people are all Sealed Ones," Xiao Tian reminded him.
Xiao Meng naturally knew that these people were Sealed Ones.
According to the original story, although Hundred Break Mountain was called a mountain, it was actually a small world. In ancient times, the saints had shed tears and spilled blood here, and afterward, this place developed an exclusionary nature, protecting itself by preventing those with overly destructive power from entering.
Over the years, people had concluded that the strength of this rejection was related to one's age and cultivation. Only those under eighteen could enter.
However, Hundred Break Mountain contained great opportunities. Whenever it opened, a small number of people would seal themselves at an enormous cost, all for those heaven-defying opportunities, hoping to obtain sacred medicines, heavenly bones, inheritances of the saints, and more.
But once these people were detected by this small world, they would certainly die miserably and turn to calamity ash.
Since ancient times, at least ninety percent of overage entrants had died every time. Only a very small number had successfully slipped through and eventually left safely.
Yet their current strength far surpassed that of many geniuses. They were extremely terrifying.
"Red, be good. Go hold one person back. Once this is over, I'll take you to apprentice yourself to Little Red," Little Dot said gently and pleasantly.
"Y-you let go first..." The Big Red Bird's eyes rolled back as it struggled to breathe.
"Thieving bird, if you dare run, I'll prepare a big pot for you." Little Dot changed expressions in an instant and snorted coldly. "If you fight alongside us today, you'll get a share of the Taiyi True Water. Otherwise, steamed, braised, boiled—you can wait for it. Oh, right, I've never had chicken stewed with mushrooms. I'll use you to try it then."
"I won't run. Isn't that enough?" The Big Red Bird had completely lost its temper and felt the urge to smash its head into a wall.
"Go. Just hold one person back." Little Dot released it, but his gaze remained fixed on it. Once this thieving bird flew into the sky, there would be no way to deal with it.
Next, battle was on the verge of erupting.
Facing nine people alone, Xiao Meng had little chance of victory—of course, that was only if he did not use the AK-47.
However, he wanted to take this chance to temper himself properly and engage these powerful opponents in real combat. If he used the AK-47 to kill several of them, he would surely scare the rest away.
So he had the bear child and the others come out to hold several people back. This way, he would not simply be overwhelmed, and the battle could serve its purpose of tempering him.
Xiao Tian, who had opened eight Grotto-Heavens, could be considered among the most outstanding human prodigies. Holding one person back was naturally no problem for him.
The Big Red Bird, relying on its own advantages, could also hold one person back for a while. Little Dot would not be under much pressure dealing with two people either, especially since Yu Wencheng's combat strength was not at its peak.
The battle became fierce from the very beginning.
Xiao Meng alone blocked five great experts. He was not seeking victory now; he only wanted to use these people to temper himself.
"Little beast, today you will pay for your arrogance," a middle-aged man said coldly.
The five great experts moved together, transforming into streaks of light as they rushed over in an instant. Endless runes erupted from their bodies, their radiance dazzling.
Xiao Meng curled his lips, lightly stamped his foot against the ground, and charged forward like lightning.
To one side, Little Dot showed no fear. With a long howl, he shot into the air, immeasurable light erupting from his body as he raised his fist and clashed head-on with two Sealed Ones, producing a thunderous boom.
The collision shocked both men. How could this damned child be so powerful?
"You two old turtles, you're not much," Little Dot said, growing even fiercer. He was unlike his usual self. His blood boiled throughout his body, his eyes stood wide, and killing intent surged around him.
He harbored boundless hatred for the Rain Clan and wished he could kill them all.
Both sides wanted the other dead, so they fought with all their strength.
"Shk!"
Suddenly, a volcanic crater appeared above Little Dot's head. Crimson "magma" surged forth as a golden treasure floated within it, releasing dazzling rosy light before abruptly shooting out toward Yu Wencheng.
The Golden Bone Scissors appeared again, like two entwined flood dragons. They radiated sharp light, capable of cutting through anything and breaking anything.
"Shk!"
Caught off guard, Yu Wencheng had one leg severed by the scissors and immediately let out a miserable scream.
"It's you?!"
"It's you..."
