When Hai Yue carefully examined the map, she couldn’t help but point at a human skull shaped mark on the map and ask,
What is this Nine Dragon Cave?
Obviously, none of the descenders were ordinary folk. When they saw the blood-colored skull mark on the beast skin, a hint of alertness rose in their hearts.
This Nine Dragon Cave is where a group of bandits—none of whom are good people—live on the Nine Dragon Mountain. My Liujia Village has to make an offering to them every three months, like every other village in a thousand kilometer radius. We can only live under their exploitation.
Once everyone heard this, their hearts stopped.
A trifling bandit group had control over a territory of a thousand kilometers?
Once again, the descenders experienced the terrifying vastness of the origin world.
You all should leave quickly, these Nine Dragon Cave bandits aren’t someone you can provoke. Outsiders like you are meaty fish in their eyes. Many people from groups that came before you have been captured by them,
said a deep and crude-sounding voice.
It came from the other side of the public square, and it was full of vigor and vitality. When Li Yunmu and the others looked in the direction from which the voice had spoken, they saw a group of tall and muscular men entering the village.
They were holding thick wooden spears and had animal hides fastened around their waists. This group with an air of savageness to it had around twenty people and was led by a large, one-eyed man.
His height was surprisingly almost equal to that of the three meter tall Men Shen, while the strength emitted by him instantly almost made the eyeballs of Man Tian jump out.
According to the elder’s words, these people belonged to Liujia village’s hunting squad, which now returned back to the village. The leader of the squad was called Liu Qingshi, a thirty year old son of the village elder.
Behind him, the other members of the hunting squad were carrying an enormous beast which was more than ten meter long and dripping blood.
Sssss.
The group of descenders couldn’t help but take in a deep breath.
At first, they hadn’t bothered to put the possible threat of the hunting squad into theirs eyes. After all, what sort of people were they? They were Overlords who formed the top layer of the flux disciple hierarchy in all of the six continents, so how could they worry about a trifling hunting squad. But now, the powerful presence coming from the members of the hunting squad filled their hearts with agony.
Motherfckers, can this really be just a hunting squad of a village which belongs to the lowest rung of the society? The presence emitted by these people was sufficient to cause the descenders to grow apprehensive of them.
Especially the leader of the hunting squad Qingshi. His vigor suppressed Men Shen, this three meter tall human. Yet even though Liujia Village had a formidable hunting squad under the leadership of Qingshi, they were still oppressed and had to pay taxes.
Zhao Mei couldn’t help but sincerely ask the group of hunters,
The Nine Dragon Cave’s brigands, how formidable are they?
Seeing her sweet smile, one member of the hunting squad instantly forgot everything and revealed all the information he had about the strength of mountain bandits,
Extremely formidable, they have more than a hundred people, and each one of them can beat three of us. Above them are the nine heads, which are known as nine dragons. The most formidable among them is the Black Dragon, and even captain Qingshi isn’t his opponent.
Yes, Old Tiger words are truthful. In the depths of the Nine Dragon Cave, there is a transfer channel. Previously, the villages around here had joined hands to rebel and were successful. But afterwards, the Black Dragon opened the transfer channel and requested the help of a group of martial experts who then suppressed us.
Yes, those damned bandits have some backer. Every one of those experts had cultivated flux energy, so you should leave quickly, for if they meet you, you won’t be able to leave anymore.
The squad members all urged the descenders to swiftly depart.
Transfer channel?
Although everyone was apprehensive about the strength of the natives here, all of them sighed in relief upon hearing what the members of the hunting squad had to say..
Even if the villagers described the Nine Mountain Cave’s bandits as very formidable, they couldn’t be too fearsome if Qingshi could rival most of the leaders, the dragon heads.
As the villagers had said, their only worry was the backer of these bandits, so Li Yunmu and the others weren’t too anxious. That evening, they decided to stay in Liujia Village, especially after hearing that the trifling Nine Dragon Cave had a transfer channel.
Everyone had the same idea at that moment. They didn’t mention it, but talked with the people of Liujia Village, enquiring about the origin world. From this, they soon understood that their current location was the most backward and desolate region in the origin world.
None of these villagers, including Liu Qingshi, had cultivated any flux energy, not to mention deadly flux skills. Although there were people among them who had physical strength that surpassed even that of Hai Yue, this didn’t mean that they were more impressive than the descenders.
That night, everyone gathered in Hai Yue’s hut as if having agreed to do so. In the center of the room, they lighted a fire, which then reflected upon the solemn expressions of every descender.
According to the information they had received from the villagers, they were too optimistic, but they also weren’t full of despair.
Currently, everyone was completely clear about the reason why every villager of Liujia village whom they had run into had called them young masters and misses. And it was a really simple one.
It was all because of their slim bodies. When in this world, apart from Men Shen who was three meter tall, even Mammoth Barbarian Wuhang would be seen a young master until he changed his body when in a fight.
The elder had said that descenders’ innate control over their body stature was a mark that they were descendants of martial experts. Among ordinary people, very few would have a height less than two meters under the terrifying sixty-six times greater gravity of the origin world.
In the eyes of people here, height was the mark of a person’s strength. Under ordinary circumstances, the more muscular a person was, the greater his strength would be. Those who had a height of two meters were considered to be at the lowest rung in terms of strength.
Those who had a height of 2.5 m were considered to be experts, while those who surpassed 2.7 m could fight for the position of the captain of the hunting squad.
Liu Qingshi’s name was famous in the villages in the vicinity. He was close to 2.9 m tall and possessed the strength of eight oxens. In the area of a thousand miles, apart from Nine Dragon Cave’s ninth head Black Dragon, he could be considered as the most formidable.
According to the classification of strength among ordinary people in this world, the power of nine oxens was the limit of physical strength for those who weren’t cultivators.
In other words, the Nine Dragon Cave’s nine heads should be between eight and nine oxens. Among them, the most formidable was Black Dragon, who definitely had the power of nine oxens.
An ox’s power was equivalent to five hundred kilograms. So nine oxens were equivalent to 4.5 tons. So when they attacked, their fists contained several tens of tons in power.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of every person in the group of descenders turned gloomy, for they found it unimaginable. Based on this information, the strength of ordinary people in this world was just too terrifying.
