Chapter 290: Bragging in Front of Laozi? Then I

Listening to Amir's words.

All members of the Yingguo Ghost Spirit Clan turned ashen with fury.

Too arrogant!

Even more arrogant than Kim Tae-sung!

Shinomutsu Kyō took a deep breath.

He forcibly suppressed the urge to draw his blade, his eyes locked onto Amir.

"Amir."

"We are nominally allied forces, sharing a common goal."

"I want to know why you ignored my messages."

Hearing this question,

Amir paused.

Then he threw his head back and laughed loudly.

"Hahahaha!"

"Why didn't I reply?"

Amir stopped laughing and looked down at Shinomutsu Kyō with contempt.

"That's a very interesting question."

"It's like an ant asking an elephant why it ignored its chirping."

"What are you?"

"Do you even deserve a reply from me?"

"I haven't gone out of my way to find you and crush you yet—that's already the greatest mercy Brahma has shown you."

"Bakayarō!!!"

Yanagawa Ken'ichi could no longer hold back.

"Captain! Don't waste words with him!"

"Kill them! Kill this arrogant bastard!"

Shinomutsu Kyō gripped Yanagawa Ken'ichi's arm.

He stared at Amir, his tone turning deadly serious.

"Amir, I've made it clear: that Dragon Country man's strength is no ordinary thing."

"He wiped out the entire White Tiger Battalion of Great Cold Nation."

"If we don't unite, how can we complete the Adams family's mission?"

Hearing Shinomutsu Kyō's words,

Amir's face remained as indifferent as ever.

"Heh."

"Don't try to pressure me with the Adams family."

"The Adams elders' orders were simple: just make sure the Dragon Country man never leaves this Ten Nations Battlefield."

"It's just one man. You make him sound like a monster—do you think I'll believe your lies?"

"The Dragon Country man? I don't care about him."

"As for you…"

The air behind Amir began to warp.

Six faint, translucent arm shadows reappeared.

"Since you Yingguo people came to me willingly,"

"then don't leave. Leave your weapons and your lives here."

At that moment,

Rajat, beside him, suddenly noticed something on the cliff edge to the upper left.

He instinctively turned his head to look.

"Lord Amir! Look up!"

At these words,

Everyone present instinctively looked upward.

On the high cliff edge, against the dim sky,

A massive blue fox stood silently.

And on the fox's back,

A figure gazed down at the forty people below.

…

"Hahahaha!"

After a brief silence,

Amir burst into loud laughter.

He turned to Shinomutsu Kyō, his eyes dripping with mockery.

"I have to say, your acting was convincing—I almost believed you."

"Pretending to want to unite against the Dragon Country man?"

"I think…"

Amir's gaze turned icy cold.

"You Yingguo people have secretly allied with the Dragon Country man—and now you're trying to team up to take me out."

At these words,

Shinomutsu Kyō's face darkened.

He didn't understand.

Why were the prodigies from other nations all mentally broken?

Kim Tae-sung was insane, and now this Indian prodigy was even worse.

Shinomutsu Kyō drew his long blade in one swift motion.

"Idiot."

"Everyone, prepare for battle!"

Having finished speaking,

Shinomutsu Kyō turned and faced Lin Mo on the cliff edge.

Watching this,

Amir frowned slightly.

Could this Yingguo man really not be allied with the Dragon Country man?

But it didn't matter.

"Hmph."

Amir sneered.

"I don't care if you're one group or two."

"Since we've met here today, none of you are leaving alive."

No sooner had he spoken,

Amir's body began to twist grotesquely.

Bones cracked in a series of pops.

Muscles swelled like inflating balloons.

Thick, rope-like veins coiled like dragons across his skin.

In the blink of an eye,

Amir's height surged to three meters.

Behind him,

the six translucent arm shadows solidified completely.

A violent wave of pressure erupted from Amir, sweeping across the entire basin.

…

At this moment,

On the cliff above,

Lin Mo rode atop Daibai.

Watching the scene below: the arguing factions, then suddenly uniting against a common foe, and finally that black giant transforming.

He rubbed his chin.

His gaze swept across the Yingguo and Indian camps.

"One, two, three… forty."

Lin Mo smiled.

"This is going to be convenient."

In his skill bar.

【"Earth Shield Technique" muttered disdainfully:】

【"Master, that big guy is such a showoff—I hate it."】

Listening to Xiao Tu's complaints.

Lin Mo nodded in deep agreement.

"Yeah, total showoff."

"Xiao Lei."

Lin Mo gently patted Da Bai's head.

"Get ready. Leave no one alive."

"First, kill that showoff big guy."

Show off in front of me?

Then I'll send you on your way first.

Da Bai let out a low growl, its eyes suddenly blazing with blinding blue light.

The next instant.

BOOM—!!!

The already gloomy sky seemed violently torn apart by some terrifying force.

Countless thick bolts of lightning surged wildly through the heavy clouds.

Behind Lin Mo,

a thunder god's phantom, dozens of meters tall, slowly emerged.

The thunder god's phantom closed its eyes, raising its right hand.

The thunder elements in heaven and earth surged wildly toward its palm.

A spear shimmering with destructive lightning rapidly coalesced in its grip.

……

Kusamura Ichirō stared, mouth slightly open.

"Gao Jie…"

"It's the aura of a Gao Jie!"

Amir glanced at Kusamura Ichirō and sneered.

He looked up.

At the thunder god's phantom.

Not fear, but wild battle lust ignited in his eyes.

"Gao Jie?"

Amir burst into wild laughter.

"Fake gods and spirits—before my Brahma power, all is illusion!"

BOOM!

Amir slammed his foot hard against the ground.

The rocky earth shattered instantly.

Using the recoil, his three-meter-tall massive body shot upward, hurtling toward Lin Mo on the cliff!

Eight arms clenched into fists midair.

"DIE!!!"

Amir roared.

Facing this furious assault,

the thunder god's phantom hovering behind Lin Mo suddenly opened its eyes.

Next,

the thunder god's spear flew free.

Before Amir could react, a blinding blue beam pierced straight through his body.

In an instant,

everything from Amir's chest down to his waist vanished—vaporized!

Then,

the thunder god's spear, having pierced Amir, kept its momentum and slammed into the cliff behind him.

BOOM—!!!

The people in the basin looked up.

The cliff had been completely flattened…

A massive gap now stretched across the endless cliff face.

Amir's head tumbled from midair, rolling a few times on the ground.

His eyes bulged wide, mouth slightly agape.

Arrogance and confidence still clung to his face—even fear hadn't had time to rise.

He stared at the silhouette of the man and fox on the cliff edge, backlit by light.

What happened?

Am I dead?

Impossible…

I'm the top prodigy of Tianzhu Kingdom, a once-in-a-century genius…

How could I possibly fail to even survive one of his attacks…?

His thoughts cut off abruptly.

Amir's eyes lost all light.
