Several giant metal arms blocked out the sun as they smashed down on Huang San's head. Huang San's mouth fell open; it was over. Just as the arms were about to crush him, a black shadow flashed in front of him. Bang! Bang! Bang! Four loud bangs rang out, and Huang San watched in shock as four metal puppets were sent flying away like sandbags. He then felt something tighten around his neck as he was picked up by someone. The scene in front of him kept retreating, and the metal puppets soon disappeared without a trace.
Huang San panted heavily, and only then did he have time to look around. He saw the person who had saved him, a man who was about his age.
"Bro, bro, thank you for saving my life. Huang San will never forget this," Huang San gasped for breath, his forehead covered in sweat. He even pulled up his pants.
Lu Yin looked at the fatty who was lying on the ground without any strength. His eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.
"What is your name, bro?
If you can easily defeat the First Divine Gate Guardians, then I'm sure you're not a nobody. I'm Huang San from the Bloodburn Realm, "the fatty said politely as he struggled to get up.
Lu Yin just looked at him, but he still didn't say anything. He didn't understand what was going on, so he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb.
The fatty blinked. "Bro, I'm Huang San from the Bloodburn Realm."
Lu Yin still didn't say anything, and he just looked up.
The fatty waved his hand in front of Lu Yin's eyes, attracting his attention. "Bro, I'm Huang San."
Lu Yin looked at him calmly.
Huang San was speechless. "Bro, are you a mute?"
Lu Yin remained calm.
Huang San's face turned bitter. "I can't be that unlucky. I finally met an expert, but he's a mute. How sad."
Lu Yin raised his foot and walked up.
Huang San hurriedly followed. "Bro, even if you can't speak, you can at least make a few gestures. Where are you from?
Which ancestor's master are you from?
Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue? "
Lu Yin's expression changed. What?
Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue?
"F * ck, Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue?
Progenitor Xue?
That fatty can't be talking about a Progenitor, right? Impossible! There aren't any Progenitors in the universe. It should be a title for a powerhouse, "the monkey cried...
Lu Yin thought of this as well, and he looked up once more as he slowly walked up.
"Brother, don't tell me you can't even hear me? I can't be so unlucky to run into someone who's both deaf and mute," the fatty wailed and chased after him.
"Brother, you really can't hear me?
Or are you messing with me?
There's no need for that. I'm just a puny Explorer who doesn't have much power, so I'm not worth toying with. Why don't you say something? "
"Brother, you're not bad, but you're not even half as good as me."
"Brother, let's become sworn brothers."
…
The fatty was clearly someone who could not sit still, and he kept chattering in Lu Yin's ear. Although most of it was nonsense, Lu Yin still managed to learn some information, such as that the fatty was an Explorer, that he was going to look for his fiancée, and that this place was called the Daosource Sect.
Through his words, Lu Yin realized that he had never heard of any of the places mentioned by this person, and he even included some strange terms.
"Brother, which expert did your imprint belong to?
Imprinter?
World Imprinter?
Or a Cosmic Imprinter? "
"Bro, you really can't hear me?" Fatty's voice rose an octave.
…
Finally, he confirmed that Lu Yin really could not hear him, and he began to bemoan his fate. "I was born in the Bloodburn Realm's Huang family, and the Huang family was originally an Imprinter family. They had made great contributions during the Ancient Continent's war, but after the Imprinter ancestor died, the family weakened. So what if it was weak to begin with? I didn't have much of a goal, and I just wanted to muddle along and wait for death to come. But then, I met Xiaojing, and from then on, I fell in love. My Huang family and Xiaojing's Yan family actually had a marriage contract that had been passed down for generations.
"However, the Yan family looked down on my Huang family. Did you know, bro? The Yan family now has an Imprinter, and they're a genuine Imprinter family. If my Huang family was still an Imprinter family, then this marriage contract would still be valid, but now … Sigh, talking about it makes me cry.
"The most infuriating thing is that the Autumnfrost family interfered. Autumnfrost Qing, that shameless bastard, actually chased after Xiaojing, and the Yan family couldn't wait to climb up to the Autumnfrost family. The Autumnfrost family is one of the strongest families in the entire Bloodburn Realm, and they have a World Imprinter in their family. That's a World Imprinter we're talking about! Even when my Huang family was at its peak, we couldn't compare to them.
"But I won't give up. I'm determined to marry Xiaojing. That's my lifelong dream."
…
The fatty spoke for more than an hour, and Lu Yin listened to him. He didn't know anything about Imprinters or World Imprinters, but that didn't matter. As long as he interacted with the fatty for a long time, this guy would definitely spill everything out like candy.
"Bro, it's been hard on me. When I was three years old, I saw a woman's skirt being blown up by the wind, and I went up to help her pull it down. I don't know which bastard pushed me, but I directly dove into her skirt. I was only three years old at the time, and the woman was in her forties or fifties. How could I have taken a liking to her?
I was called a pervert, and from then on, I became famous. People called me the Little Prince of Dove Skirts, and even now, legends about me are spreading around the city.
"When I was four years old, I used my pocket money to buy a book about the Divine Art of Genesis. The secret manual stated that it required a virgin boy's urine to cultivate. I decided to show my filial piety to my father, so I personally gave him a cup of virgin boy's urine. After that, my father hung me up and beat me for three days.
"When I was five years old, I fell in love with a very pretty girl of the same age. I mustered up the courage to confess, and I succeeded. I was so excited at the time, and I still remember it to this day. But that bastard turned out to be a boy. Isn't it a lie for a boy to be so pretty? Even now, that guy still pesters me and insists that I have to take responsibility.
"When I was six years old …"
…
Lu Yin looked at the fatty strangely. Was this guy making up stories or telling the truth? If it was true, then his experiences were legendary, and it was already pretty good that he was still alive.
"Seventh Bro, it's not easy for this fatty to survive. Take him along," the monkey sighed.
The monkey pitied the fatty.
There was a whoosh as a First Divine Gate Guardian charged out from the forest and slapped the fatty. The fatty was stunned, as the guardian had been hiding too close to him, and it was also very fast. The fatty could tell at a glance that the guardian was not the agile type.
Fortunately, Lu Yin was right next to the fatty, and he reached out to pull the fatty over. He then kicked the First Divine Gate Guardian five meters away, which shocked the fatty.
When Lu Yin had saved him earlier, the fatty had been too scared to notice what had happened. Now that he saw it clearly, he said, "Bro, you used your foot to kick it. That's really powerful."
The First Divine Gate Guardian charged forward again, but Lu Yin dodged to the side to avoid its attack. He then pressed down on the First Divine Gate Guardian's head with a single palm. There was a thump, and the First Divine Gate Guardian's head was sent flying.
From start to finish, it had not even taken more than ten seconds.
The fatty's mouth fell open, and he stared at Lu Yin in a daze. "Bro, you're definitely not some nobody. That's a guardian from the Fifth Mainland's Daosource Sect's First Divine Gate. Even many elite disciples from large families are no match for it in a one-on-one fight, but you killed it in just a few seconds without using an imprint or any battle techniques."
The Fifth Mainland?
Lu Yin's eyes flashed, and he continued to walk forward in silence.
The fatty licked his lips and followed him with a smile. "Bro, you must have made preparations before coming to the Daosource Sect. Where are you going?
Oh, I forgot, you can't speak or hear. How about this, Fat Bro will follow you. Bro, you're such a nice person, so you won't mind, right? "
Up ahead, another First Divine Gate Guardian was wandering around.
Lu Yin paused and looked at the fatty.
The fatty blinked. "Bro, what's the meaning of this?"
Lu Yin looked at the First Divine Gate Guardian, and then back at the fatty. He just stood there.
The fatty's face turned bitter. "Bro, you're not planning on letting me go, are you?"
Lu Yin walked to the side of the path and leaned against a tree. He just watched the fatty. The fatty had said so many strange things along the way, and Lu Yin did not understand them. However, since they were related to battle, Lu Yin wanted to see how the fatty fought.
"I understand. Bro, you want to see if I'm qualified to follow you. Fine, Fat Bro will go all out." The fatty gritted his teeth and slowly approached the First Divine Gate Guardian.
The First Divine Gate Guardian quickly discovered the fatty, and it suddenly charged over, causing the ground to tremble.
The fatty's face paled as he watched the First Divine Gate Guardian approach. His eyes widened as a blurry phantom appeared behind him. As the phantom appeared, the fatty's aura changed, and an indescribable deterrent force appeared. "Myriad Elephant Fist!" the fatty shouted as he punched out. A strange energy coiled around his arm, and the roar of a hundred beasts could be heard as he collided with the First Divine Gate Guardian's fist.
Bang!
Shockwaves shot out in all directions, crushing the trees on the side of the path. The First Divine Gate Guardian was actually forced back a dozen steps by the fatty's punch. The fatty took the opportunity to attack again, and the phantom behind him became even more blurry. "Myriad Elephant Fist!" The fatty roared again, and his face turned red. He viciously punched the First Divine Gate Guardian's head, sending it flying. The fatty's body slammed into the First Divine Gate Guardian's body, and both of them fell to the ground. At the same time, the phantom behind him dissipated.
Lu Yin watched this scene in shock. What had just happened?
He could see through the fatty's strength, but when that phantom had appeared, the fatty's strength had increased significantly. His strength had also increased significantly in an instant, as if he had become a completely different person.
With the fatty's strength, it should have been impossible for him to cripple a First Divine Gate Guardian with a single punch, but he had done so. Could it be that the phantom behind him was the imprint that Lu Yin had just mentioned?
Lu Yin slowly walked over and looked down at the fatty.
The fatty grimaced and smiled bitterly. "Bro, I've already done my best and defeated a First Divine Gate Guardian. Can I follow you?"
Lu Yin stretched out a hand, and the fatty took it. Lu Yin pulled him up and rubbed his fists. The fatty's fists were now red and swollen. It seemed that those two punches had taken quite a toll on him.
Lu Yin was very curious about this place, and he felt as if he had stumbled upon a new path of cultivation. Lu Yin felt as if he had discovered a new path of cultivation.
The fatty's explosive power could only deal with one First Divine Gate Guardian. Lu Yin led the fatty up the mountain, and Lu Yin was the one who dealt with almost all of the First Divine Gate Guardians that they encountered.
The fatty was very curious about Lu Yin. Someone who could easily defeat a First Divine Gate Guardian without using an imprint, battle techniques, or even an innate gift had to have a terrifying physical body.
