Chapter 517
The Tianhuang tribe occupied an entire vast plateau.
The center of the tribe is an exceptionally high hill.
Thousands of tall innate humans gathered.
When Li Yuan and Jiang Shi arrived, more than ten hunting teams had already been sent out from the tribal center.
"Jiang Lie, I've been waiting for you!"
In a hunting team of more than a dozen people, a man holding a stone axe saw Jiang Shi and nodded.
In the Tianhuang tribe, strong and brave men who have the ability to lead a team out will be called "hunters".
The existence of every 'hunter' is very important to the entire tribe.
Jiang Shi also nodded, looked back at Li Yuan, and motioned him to go and wait in the hunting team.
He himself walked towards the center and, like other "hunters", received baptism from the tribal witch.
Li Yuan understood, greeted the group of people, and slowly approached.
The dozen or so people that Jiang Shi was going to lead were the hunting team that had carried Li Yuan back.
Seeing Li Yuan jumping around, several tall soldiers couldn't help but nod slowly.
In a dangerous environment, only those with strong recovery abilities can survive.
A burly man patted Li Yuan on the shoulder with such terrifying force that Li Yuan's feet were driven into the ground like nails.
However, Li Yuan originally possessed a great god-level immortal body, so his physical strength was naturally extraordinary.
He just kicked the mud and easily pulled his foot out.
"Good boy, you're in good shape!"
The burly man pounded his chest in approval.
Over the past few days, Li Yuan has become familiar with the etiquette of the Tianhuang tribe, so he smiled and pounded his chest as a kind response.
However, when the soldiers in the team learned that Li Yuan would also go out hunting, they were a little surprised.
"No, no! You're too small, you'll be torn to pieces!"
An experienced old warrior shook his head, worried that Li Yuan didn't understand, and explained to him some of the horrors of the primitive beasts.
Compared to those terrifying giants that are often tens or hundreds of meters long, Li Yuan's body is too small.
Moreover, they heard that the acquired human race's cultivation system was still imperfect and could not defeat the powerful primitive beasts.
Looking at Li Yuan's weak appearance, he can't even be considered a cultivator of the acquired human race. He is obviously a mortal!
The sturdy man also advised:
"The Tianhuang tribe admires the wisdom of the acquired human race."
"But when it comes to fighting against primitive behemoths, we humans are more experienced."
The man's words were a little clumsy, but they were undoubtedly a kind reminder, hoping that Li Yuan would not "seek death himself".
The innate human race can obtain powerful divine energy by believing in the totems of innate gods and chaotic gods and demons.
But the acquired humans are different. They can only explore the path of cultivation on their own, which is undoubtedly extremely difficult.
In the hunting team, the female warrior also strictly prohibited it: "Hunting will kill people, you...don't go!"
Her young child was torn to pieces by the giant beasts in the primitive mountains when he participated in hunting for the first time.
She watched helplessly, but was unable to do anything to the giant beast, which walked away in a swagger.
A shadow has been left since then.
I don't want to see such a cruel scene again.
Faced with the hunting team's dissuasion, Li Yuan just smiled.
He spoke to them in a somewhat awkward tone:
"I appreciate your concern. But you have the divine essence... I am not weak either."
Li Yuan walked to the side and searched on the hill, and found a huge rock about three or four meters square.
Then, he lifted it up with one hand.
Seeing that, it seems effortless.
Like a big mountain, carrying a tiny, insignificant stone.
The warriors of the hunting team were a little dazed, and even other hunting teams came to pay attention.
Warriors like them could also do this by mobilizing the divine energy in their bodies. However, it was impossible for them to be as nonchalant as Li Yuan.
Li Yuan put the boulder cart down steadily, and the wheels hit the grass, making a dull sound.
The burly man who had tried to dissuade Li Yuan earlier was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter:
"Hey! I made a mistake!"
"This kid is so strong that he's comparable to a dragon or an elephant!"
"If we are lucky this time, we will definitely get a lot of rewards!"
The other warriors of the hunting team also nodded.
In this primitive and dangerous world, burdens are not the biggest concern; the only thing to worry about is meaningless sacrifices.
Because the innate human race believes that life is a gift from God, and everyone should die meaningfully.
The female soldier in the team wanted to say something but hesitated, but looking at Li Yuan's gentle and firm eyes, she sighed silently and did not stop him.
She knew that Li Yuan wanted to do something to repay the kindness of the Tianhuang tribe.
At this time, Jiang Shi led an old man with colorful wrinkles on his face closer.
The old man was a little skinny and hunched, but he was still three meters tall.
He was leaning on a cane, wearing a fine fur coat, and adorned with all sorts of bone ornaments.
Her long hair was also tied into a thick braid, tied with various tooth-grinding objects, and draped behind her head.
Although he looks old, his eyes are bright and seem to be burning with flames.
"His name is Li Yuan, and he is the acquired human we brought back."
Jiang Shi introduced himself to the old man with a look of deep respect and awe.
Looking back, Jiang Shi also introduced the old man's identity to Li Yuan.
"Li Yuan, this is the shaman of our Tianhuang tribe."
Seeing the hint in Jiang Shi's eyes, Li Yuan subconsciously bowed and saluted. Then, as if realizing something, he changed his posture, pounded his chest, and bowed.
Seeing that somewhat 'strange' action, Jiang Shi couldn't help but wipe his sweat silently.
The status of witches and shamans in the Xiantian tribe is extremely high.
He is regarded by the innate human race as a messenger who can communicate with the chaotic gods and demons, guide the tribe to survive, and protect the tribe's legacy.
It has great significance for any ethnic group.
Faced with the apology in Li Yuan's expression, the old shaman just smiled.
"Good boy, you have come all this way, you have worked hard."
There is deep wisdom in the shaman's eyes, as if he knows everything.
This glance seemed to see through everything behind Li Yuan and everything in the distance.
The smile on his face seemed to be both relieved and sad.
The shaman was leaning on a cane in one hand and dragging a clay bowl full of red paint in the other.
He put his cane aside and dipped his wrinkled fingers into the special paint in the clay bowl.
Then, he leaned over and gently pulled up Li Yuan's hand, and drew a few obscure symbols on his forearm.
Another deep red mark was left between Li Yuan's eyebrows.
"May the heavens protect you, and may the light of the Chaos Gods and Demons shine before you."
The shaman chanted softly, and then recited an ancient and obscure spell.
"Child, follow the hunting team and start from the primitive forest..."
"See this world, witness our story, and record this... forgotten time."
The shaman stretched out his hand and touched Li Yuan's head. There was both kindness and sigh in his eyes.
Li Yuan had lost his memory and was confused by the shaman's words.
But Jiang Shi next to him secretly pulled him aside, signaling Li Yuan to just listen and not ask nonsense questions.
Anyway, in their opinion, witches and shamans often speak obscure words that are incomprehensible.
But time will eventually prove it.
This is also a symbol of their wisdom.
