Seeing Chu Feng's grim expression, Mi Tian showed no sign of remorse and continued to shout, "Anyone with 'De' in their name deserves to be struck by lightning!"
Chu Feng, expressionless, said, "Let the heavens try to strike me. If they dare, I'll tear them open!"
"Boom!" In the sky, thunder rumbled as two dark clouds collided, emitting dazzling light. Silver lightning bolts intertwined, and electricity surged wildly.
Chu Feng immediately fell silent. "See that?" the Six-Eared Macaque exclaimed, growing excited. "Even the heavens have been troubled by people of your 'De' generation! Those with 'De' in their names never come to a good end!"
Chu Feng said, "Shut up. This is just a coincidence, simply rain and thunder. Go quickly and bring in your clothes!"
"Alright, forget it," Mi Tian said. "Although that name is inauspicious, let's let it go for now. We should find a place to discuss how to cooperate." In truth, he was naturally displeased, having been inexplicably chased and soundly beaten with a large club by this 'savage.' He still hadn't finished coughing up blood from his throat. The reason for his quick compromise was that the great fortune he had mentioned earlier was too significant. He needed to find collaborators, as he and his sworn brothers couldn't handle it alone at the moment.
"Come on, let's go into my tent-cave dwelling for a secret discussion!" Mi Tian said. He didn't want to be stared at. Even though he had used secret techniques to conceal his injuries and was no longer bruised and swollen, his mouth still hurt and his nose ached slightly when he spoke.
Nearby, many people had stopped, all looking at them in surprise. These two were fighting to the death just moments ago, and now they were getting along so well? People showed expressions of shock, realizing, "Another demon king has arrived; he's a formidable one."
Mi Tian took Chu Feng's hand. Although he had just cursed those with 'De' in their names, saying they were no good, he was now trying hard to win Chu Feng over, clearly seeking his help.
Chu Feng said, "Let go of my hand. You're a male ape; what kind of behavior is this, holding my hand? You're not a heavenly immortal; I don't have any special preferences!"
Upon hearing this, the Six-Eared Macaque's six ears trembled. He really wanted to lash out and smash Chu Feng's head open with his staff. Given his untamed nature, it was rare for him to humble himself and show respect to a worthy individual, only to be rejected. "Do you know that I'm someone who only speaks with fists, not reason?" he hissed. "I've tolerated you for a long time today!" He indeed had a violent temper, but he lowered his voice, didn't get angry publicly, and ultimately endured it.
Chu Feng was surprised and doubtful, but became increasingly sure that Mi Tian's plan couldn't do without him. It seemed he was truly needed.
"Tell me, what's the situation exactly?" he asked directly.
"A great fortune has been obtained by those above," Mi Tian explained. "Initially, only the most outstanding among Divine Kings were allowed to go. Later, someone proposed that Divine-level powerhouses could also share. Eventually, all parties became aware and stepped forward to vie for it. After various compromises, the conditions were broadened to Saint-level, and it seemed to get stuck at the Sub-Saint level." Mi Tian was unwilling to accept this; he was currently in the Golden Body realm, which annoyed him. He knew deeply what that great fortune meant and that he couldn't miss it.
"Obtained from the battlefield?" Chu Feng asked.
"Yes!" The monkey nodded and silently pointed in the direction of the First Mountain Under Heaven.
"Then let your family step forward," Chu Feng said. "Have an old monkey come and knock over all those who oppose and allow you to join. Wouldn't that solve everything? What use am I to you?"
Mi Tian bared his teeth; this 'savage' spoke so unpleasantly. How many people dared to call the patriarchs of their family "old monkeys"? They would probably be slapped to death. This guy dared to say anything and had even beaten him up. Mi Tian said, "Do you think our Six-Eared Macaque race is truly invincible and can oppose all other families? That plan was the result of compromises from various parties. Many families participated in the negotiations. Moreover, our family is also a beneficiary; my elder brother, Mi Hong, is on the list, one of the elite Divine Kings. Even if our clansmen want to support me, they cannot show too obvious favoritism. I mainly have to rely on myself!"
"So what do you want to do?" Chu Feng asked.
"Of course, we need to act immediately, create the conditions, and then let the family speak for us!" This monkey was very arrogant and ambitious, insisting on sharing the fortune reserved for high-level evolvers. He had recently been contacting the most powerful individuals in the Golden Body realm, wanting to act together to beat two or three Sub-Saints on that list half to death. The rest could be handled by the elders of the clan.
Chu Feng was speechless. This monkey was truly confident and domineering. If they really crippled two or three Sub-Saints on that list, it probably would work. If they could achieve such a feat of defeating higher-ranked opponents, what more could anyone say? If others still disagreed, the beaten Sub-Saints might as well be removed from the list.
"The families behind those Sub-Saints who are targeted are also the main forces opposing our inclusion," Mi Tian continued. "If we successfully block them, hmph, I'd like to see what face they'll have left to share in that great fortune!"
"Are you sure that an evolver at your Golden Body realm can take down a formidable opponent at the Sub-Saint level?" Chu Feng asked. He knew very well that those on that list were absolutely the cream of the crop in the Sub-Saint realm. Their strength in their own realm must be terrifying.
"That's why I came to you," Mi Tian explained. "Individuals like you and me are formidable among the formidable. If we find four or five more, we're guaranteed to take them down. Besides, it's not limited to direct confrontation; ambushes are also an option!" Cold light flashed in the monkey's eyes.
"What about integrity? Does a sneak attack count as success?" Chu Feng asked him.
Mi Tian said, "Naturally. They are one realm higher than us, and if we knock them down and beat them half to death, who would dare to make an issue of it then? Even the old figures behind them would have to shut up!"
As they spoke, they arrived near Mi Tian's tent. Of course, some important matters they discussed on the way were communicated secretly through telepathy. Some information absolutely could not be leaked at this time.
This tent was very large; once inside, it was incredibly spacious, opulent, and grand, like a palace. Especially in its deeper parts, there were spirit fruit orchards, flower gardens, and pavilions.
"Come, let's go into the depths of the cave dwelling for our secret discussion!" the monkey suggested.
"No, if I enter your territory and fall into your trap, what then?" Chu Feng refused. "We'll stay in the main tent!"
Mi Tian, embarrassed and annoyed, said, "Am I that kind of person? You're being overly cautious!" In fact, he really did want to use the terrain to beat up this 'savage' first; their alliance could wait. Unfortunately, this Cao De didn't give him the chance.
Chu Feng said, "Tell me about the specific situation."
"Do you know the complex history of this battlefield?" Mi Tian asked.
"No," Chu Feng replied.
"Back then, this place was the Fourth Forbidden Zone Under Heaven," Mi Tian began. "When a decree was issued from this forbidden land, none dared to disobey; all submitted. Its might was so great that it suppressed all races."
Chu Feng gasped, "This battlefield was once a forbidden zone?" He knew that there were about twenty forbidden zones in the Yang Realm, but he didn't know their specific rankings.
"At that time," Mi Tian continued, "the various races were pushed to their limits. Ultimate powerhouses emerged, leading the masses to this place. Back then, let alone talismans that could help people enter reincarnation with their memories, even more powerful items were revealed. Of course, the allied forces suffered even more terribly in that battle; they were almost completely annihilated, with blood and shattered bone fragments everywhere!"
For the Yang Realm, it was a catastrophe. The various races were almost wiped out. It was truly a moment of life and death for the major powerful races of the Yang Realm.
"The hateful thing is that some powerful races stood by and never participated!" Mi Tian said resentfully.
Clearly, the Six-Eared Macaque race must have participated that time; otherwise, he wouldn't have this attitude.
"They didn't even consider: if they truly didn't act and merely observed with cold indifference," Mi Tian argued, "after that battle, if the Fourth Forbidden Zone ultimately triumphed, could the remaining powerhouses in the Yang Realm, those barely surviving, ever stand tall again?"
That battle, at first, went smoothly. After all, even talismans were forcefully extracted, along with other fortunes. However, when the leader of the Fourth Forbidden Zone revived, the situation reversed. Even the ultimate powerhouses in the allied forces were eliminated!
"At the end of the battle, for some unknown reason," Mi Tian continued, "the First Mountain Under Heaven was also dragged into it. Ultimately, the First Mountain Under Heaven was severed at its roots, crashed into the Fourth Forbidden Zone, and shattered into pieces."
Although he didn't say much, this information was astonishing, leaving Chu Feng dumbfounded. The implications of these events were vast.
"In the prehistoric era, only two or three beings knew about this matter," Mi Tian explained. "Among them was our clan's ancestor, because our clan's innate divine ability is unparalleled in the world!" He pointed to his own ears, and at the same time warned Chu Feng not to speak ill of him behind his back, "otherwise, I'll hear everything clearly and come settle accounts with you!"
Chu Feng was speechless. The Six-Eared Macaque's ears were simply invincible. "Damn it," he thought, "no wonder they say 'the law does not pass six ears' – it truly makes sense!"
"What are you muttering about?!" Mi Tian glared.
According to Mi Tian, the First Mountain had been severed for over a hundred thousand years, but no one outside knew, because people still saw a standing mountain. Only the Six-Eared Macaque clan knew it was fake. It wasn't until two or three hundred thousand years later that the mountain body suddenly vanished, leaving only its foundation. People then wondered how the First Mountain Under Heaven had been severed. The entire prehistoric era was shrouded in mist. Only in recent ancient times was the truth revealed. Before that, the Six-Eared Macaque clan had been terrified, fearing extermination. No matter how they looked at it, knowing that secret had made them very uneasy. Fortunately, in recent ancient times, other clans also learned of it, and they finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
"No wonder Old Gu didn't know!" Chu Feng muttered to himself. This was a secret only revealed in recent ancient times.
Then, Mi Tian's eyes lit up with fervor. He said, "Just imagine, the First Mountain Under Heaven and the Fourth Forbidden Zone Under Heaven both shattered here, transforming into dozens or even hundreds of small secret realms. How many great fortunes must there be?!"
Back then, the First Mountain Under Heaven had countless great medicines on its slopes and was also rich in origin gold. As for the Fourth Forbidden Zone Under Heaven, it goes without saying: there were talismans that allowed people to reincarnate with their memories, and even more, various heavenly medicines, secret techniques, scriptures, and countless other fortunes.
Since recent ancient times, after the truth was revealed, many people came to explore. Some managed to find secret realms, but 99% of them ultimately died. Only a few individuals gained something and escaped, barely surviving. The selection of this location for the three-sided battlefield is not without reason. As the three sides clash, they are also performing blood sacrifices here to activate the secret realms and unearth all the ancient fortunes.
Thinking carefully, the benefits from the First Mountain Under Heaven and the Fourth Forbidden Zone were truly immense. At the same time, he secretly marveled, "Is the First Mountain Under Heaven truly this powerful? It truly lives up to its reputation as the mysterious power that nurtured Li."
Mi Tian said, "No one expected that extraordinary figures resided on the First Mountain Under Heaven back then. And no one knows why they suddenly intervened." Of course, that battle also left behind historical mysteries. In the end, it's unknown whether the First Mountain Under Heaven and the Fourth Forbidden Zone were mutually destroyed or if they merely went into seclusion.
After Chu Feng learned about this past and its secrets, he was filled with emotion.
"What is this fortune this time?" Chu Feng asked him.
"Our faction, during a skirmish on the three-sided battlefield, accidentally opened a small secret realm," Mi Tian revealed, "and found a Dao Fusion Grass!" This kind of item was coveted not just by them, but even by Celestial Venerables. If not for powerful figures suppressing the situation, allowing Divine King-level junior evolvers with infinite potential to first seek enlightenment, it would have been seized by the Celestial Venerables long ago.
"Is this item truly extraordinary?" Chu Feng asked.
"Of course!" The monkey nodded gravely.
Then, he patted Chu Feng's shoulder, saying, "Therefore, we must participate this time to create an opportunity for ourselves. We can only succeed; failure is not an option!"
Chu Feng's expression changed repeatedly. He said, "Your backing is so strong. If we truly succeed, it's an opportunity for you. But I have no background. What if it's all for nothing?" This was not impossible; spots were extremely scarce. Every name on that list was the result of competition among various races.
"Don't worry," Mi Tian said, patting his shoulder. "Once we succeed, our achievements will be clear for all to see. No one would dare to be so shameless!"
Then, to reassure Chu Feng, Mi Tian gritted his teeth. He said, "If you have concerns, I'll give you an opportunity. My younger sister, a peerless beauty... you understand. I think highly of you. You can try to win her over. If our brotherhood could be further strengthened by family ties, wouldn't that be a wonderful story?!"
Chu Feng's face instantly changed; he was truly terrified and almost fell backward off his chair onto the ground. He really wanted to say, "Give me a break. With your thunderous mouth, scratching your ears and cheeks, and sitting improperly, squatting on the chair while talking to me, how can you even dare to introduce your sister to me? She probably looks similar. No, thank you!"
Mi Tian's six ears twitched in unison. Finally, he stared at Chu Feng, his expression grim. He said, "Do you know that our clan's hearing is unparalleled in the world? At close range, if someone harbors too much resentment in their heart, we can hear their thoughts!"
