"What's going on outside? Why haven't they let my servant in yet?" Behind the water curtain at the entrance of the Haotian Secret Realm, a voice spoke, dark and heavy like the Old Serpent. Zhao Yang recognized the voice as that of the Divine Serpent Saint Child.
"The person inside, is this idiot your servant?" the elder questioned sternly.
"Yes, he is indeed my servant," the Divine Serpent Saint Child replied, impatience creeping into his tone.
"Why would you take an idiot as your servant?" the elder pressed on.
The Divine Serpent Saint Child retorted angrily, "What business is it of yours if I take an idiot as my servant?"
"He has an unknown identity and is using someone else's name!" The elder was equally furious; being reprimanded by a younger person in front of others was a blow to his pride.
"Ha ha." A strange laugh echoed from within. "You guessed correctly; you are from the Azure Cloud Palace, one of the Five Major Sects, aren't you?"
"I am indeed Elder Sidu Yuanzheng of the Azure Cloud Palace!" Sidu Yuanzheng replied, a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
"Good, ha ha." Another strange laugh came from within, followed by chaos behind the water curtain. Heads began to fly out of the Haotian Secret Realm, along with entire bodies being thrown out. They all wore clothing marked with the insignia of the Azure Cloud Palace.
"You are seeking death!" Sidu Yuanzheng shouted in rage, pointing at the Divine Serpent Saint Child inside the Haotian Secret Realm, his voice chilling. "No matter who you are or which sect's Holy Son you claim to be, you must die."
"Ha ha, I heard that your Azure Cloud Palace brought in over twenty thousand people this time. I can choose not to take any treasures or seek any opportunities for fortune; I will kill until every last one of your Azure Cloud Palace members is gone. Besides your Holy Son, everyone else is nothing but trash to me," the Divine Serpent Saint Child threatened.
Moments later, more corpses were thrown out, piling up into small hills. The sounds of screams from within sent chills down people's spines.
"Who exactly are you to target my Azure Cloud Palace like this? What is your purpose?" Sidu Yuanzheng's anger and confusion deepened.
"Are you an idiot? It's obviously because you won't let my servant in! Today, I have truly witnessed the intelligence of an elder from one of the Five Great Sects of Zhongzhou," the Divine Serpent Saint Child mocked.
Countless cultivators outside couldn't help but laugh aloud. Elder Sidu Yuanzheng of Azure Cloud Palace was furious to the point of nearly choking. He growled fiercely, "So you are the Divine Serpent Saint Child! Good, we shall see!"
Sidu Yuanzheng meant that he would wait until the Divine Serpent Saint Child came out to ambush him. He had not expected his sect's elites to be so easily defeated; they fell like cucumbers being sliced. In reality, it wasn't that Azure Cloud Palace's disciples were weak; it was just that those who had entered last were merely cannon fodder. The earlier entrants, including their Holy Son, had long since ventured into the Haotian Secret Realm in search of treasures.
"You are the Divine Serpent Saint Child?!" A thunderous shout rang out as an elder wielding twin swords descended from above, his aura fluctuating strangely. "Why did you kill my two disciples?"
"Isn't this person Elder Twin Sword from Twin Sword Sect?" someone exclaimed in surprise. "I've heard he has reached a pinnacle in cultivation and is a top expert at Divine Transformation Stage. He has only shown himself twice in the cultivation world: once while hunting down a black-clad demon king and another time while pursuing an elder from Hidden Gate. His twin flying swords create dazzling displays and work together seamlessly—almost unsolvable—which is why he is called Twin Sword Elder."
"Who are your two disciples? I have to kill thousands in a day, at least five or seven to relieve my boredom. How would I know who your disciples are? It's ridiculous." The voice from within the Haotian Secret Realm was filled with impatience and disdain.
"If you kill anyone from the Twin Sword Sect, you won't be able to escape even if you sprout wings!" The Twin Sword Elder roared in anger.
"Then come in if you have the ability! Stop wasting time!" The voice from the Haotian Secret Realm grew increasingly impatient.
"Fine, just wait!" The Twin Sword Elder suddenly spread his arms and retreated into the air, then rushed toward the entrance of the Haotian Secret Realm at lightning speed.
Bang! The Twin Sword Elder was sent flying over a hundred meters, crashing to the ground and coughing up blood.
The crowd gasped, thinking to themselves, "The Twin Sword Sect is nothing but a joke, daring to force their way into a secret realm created by immortals."
"Idiot." Laughter echoed from within the Haotian Secret Realm, the Divine Serpent Young Master seemed quite pleased. "I admit you made me laugh; I thought you could actually get in. You scared this Holy Son for a moment."
"I'll say it again: if my servant doesn't come in soon, I'll kill everyone in my sight right now. A bunch of worthless trash thinks they can compete for treasures in the Haotian Secret Realm? Dream on." The Divine Serpent Saint Child emphasized once more.
Sidu Yuanzheng was furious and helpless. The Haotian Secret Realm had a strong repulsion against cultivators above the Foundation Establishment Stage; the higher the cultivation level, the greater the backlash and damage inflicted. He had secretly transmitted a message to those inside the Haotian Secret Realm, instructing them to find an opportunity to eliminate the Divine Serpent Saint Child and his servant. He was confident in defeating the strongest genius at the Foundation Establishment Stage at the door.
"Are you still not going in?!" Sidu Yuanzheng scolded Zhao Yang.
"Can I go in now?" Zhao Yang yawned. He had somehow found a chair and sat down to watch for quite some time. Stretching lazily, he dragged his chair toward the Haotian Secret Realm under everyone's gaze.
"Wait, you can't go!" The Twin Sword Elder's voice sounded weak.
"What now?" Even Zhao Yang was getting annoyed this time.
"You are the Divine Serpent Saint Child's servant; I will kill you first to avenge my two beloved disciples!" The Twin Sword Elder's voice was chilling but somewhat feeble; the backlash from forcing his way into the Haotian Secret Realm had severely injured him internally.
Screams echoed from within the Haotian Secret Realm as people from Azure Cloud Palace were killed once again.
Sidu Yuanzheng trembled, staring at Zhao Yang and said, "Are you still not going in?!"
"No way, he can't leave!" The Twin Sword Elder opposed vehemently.
"Looking for death!" Sidu Yuanzheng shouted as thunder roared in the sky. A purple aurora suddenly shot out from the lightning, piercing through Twin Sword Elder. Following that, a gigantic hand descended from above, smashing Twin Sword Elder into a pulp, obliterating his Divine Soul. It took five or six slaps before Sidu Yuanzheng felt satisfied, causing the ground to collapse under the force.
"This old guy with a beard is so powerful!" Zhao Yang was taken aback, quickly dragging his chair and darting into the Haotian Secret Realm.
Once inside the Haotian Secret Realm, Zhao Yang looked around in wonder, filled with curiosity like a child from a slum entering the city for the first time. He completely ignored the disdainful gazes from outside the water curtain entrance of the Haotian Secret Realm and the many cultivators inside who were watching him, including the grinning Divine Serpent Saint Child. He knocked on the wall a couple of times as if searching for something.
"Don't press the red switch above your head; that's the entrance mechanism. It allows us to observe what's happening inside the Haotian Secret Realm at any time. If you press it, cultivators inside won't be able to leave until they reach Core Formation Stage, and we won't be able to guide you," a guard outside the Haotian Secret Realm kindly reminded him, fearing that this Idiot would press the red switch.
"Oh, you mean this?" Zhao Yang jumped up and pressed the switch above his head, his innocent smile revealing a set of white teeth, appearing incredibly pure and joyful.
All the cultivators inside and outside the entrance of the Haotian Secret Realm were stunned, staring at Zhao Yang, at a loss for words. They felt an impulse to tear Zhao Yang apart and devour him.
"You beast!" Sidu Yuanzheng's voice thundered as he cursed someone. His anger surged as he pointed at the guard and said, "You knew he was an Idiot and still reminded him to press it!"
Another earth-shattering Giant Palm came crashing down, turning the guard into mush.
Zhao Yang beamed brightly as he watched the entrance of the Haotian Secret Realm slowly close. His handsome face appeared on the large screen formed by water, showcasing a smile reminiscent of a Colgate toothpaste advertisement. Amidst countless curses, he waved goodbye to everyone.
