But everyone in the tribe believed it, including Xiong Ye.
Xiong Ye believed in the Beast Deity and felt that the Beast Deity was real, but at the Beast Deity Ceremony, he said that he was willing to give half of his life to him …
Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye and smiled.
In his previous life, when the apocalypse started, he was still a university student. He was good at his studies, and the education he received from a young age had filled his heart with all kinds of grand and righteous ideas.
At that time, he felt that in the face of such a natural disaster, everyone should unite and fight together.
Then reality slapped him hard in the face.
His [Plants] ability was awakened very early. At that time, the environmental pollution was not serious, and the plants he sprouted were all edible. He also tried his best to grow plants for everyone to eat, exhausting his ability every day.
Then he was caught and sold, and locked up again, forcing him to grow plants every day.
The ones who betrayed him were his junior who "liked" him, and his good friend.
In the apocalypse, there were actually many touching things. Many people gave up their own lives to let others live, but he did not encounter it.
He did not have such thoughts either.
What he saw was more of the naked human nature at the juncture of life and death.
After all, that was the real apocalypse. In the end, almost all humans were dead.
At that time, he never thought that he could still live leisurely, and even get married, until he transmigrated.
In the first one and a half months after transmigrating, he had no intention of integrating into this tribe. In the end, one day, Xiong Ye suddenly gave him a piece of Lesotho dragon meat, and Shi Li suddenly reneged on the marriage. Xiong Ye's original life trajectory took a turn, and so did his.
He liked this kind of accident.
Xiong Ye was still grateful to the Beast Deity, and his words were exceptionally simple. "Thank you, Beast Deity! I will definitely find the best sacrifice for you in the future! "
Zhou Ji: "…" The Beast Deity did not exist. If he had the time, he might as well find some food for him to eat …
Although Zhou Ji thought so, he did not show it. Instead, he prayed devoutly like the people around him.
He had always thought that Xiong Ye chose him to anger Shi Li, but now it seemed that was not the case. In that case, he would treat Xiong Ye better in the future.
He would not make the same mistake as Shi Li.
If someone treated him with a sincere heart, no matter what, he would not hurt him. He would only work hard to protect this heart and this person.
He wanted Xiong Ye to treat him like this for the rest of his life.
Everyone prayed for a long time. Gradually, they couldn't keep kneeling anymore. At this time, a priest wearing a robe made of several colors of dinosaur skin said: "The Beast God Ceremony is over. In the new year, the Beast God will bless our tribe and let us live better and better lives!"
"It's getting better! It's getting better and better! "The people in the tribe stood up excitedly.
Everyone believed in this, especially the elders in the tribe.
After all, the big bear tribe didn't have a good life before.
It was the previous priest who led them to worship the Beast God and taught them a lot of knowledge. That was why their lives were getting better and better. Now, their tribe even had 400 people!
Four hundred, right? Back then, when the priestess taught them how to count, they didn't learn it well … Anyway, there were many of them!
Not only were there more people, but there were also fewer accidental deaths. Although a lot of people had died in the salt exchange team not long ago, this number was nothing compared to before. They had only encountered accidents.
It would definitely get better and better in the future.
The Beast Deity would protect them.
"After participating in the Beast God Ritual, my wounds don't hurt anymore!"
"Me too!"
"My injured leg used to be sore and uncomfortable, but it doesn't hurt anymore."
"I feel that my spirit is especially good!"
…
The people in the tribe were all very happy.
They actually felt the same way in the past, but that was mainly psychological. This year …
Zhou Ji knew that the energy was indeed beneficial to them.
So, they felt that their bodies were getting better. This was real and not fake at all.
Thinking of this, Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye. "Do you feel anything?"
Xiong Ye said, "I'm hungry." After Zhou Ji suddenly fell sick, he hadn't eaten anything. So hungry!
Zhou Ji: "…"
Zhou Ji reached out and touched Xiong Ye's head. Previously, Xiong Ye had received the most benefits when he was by his side. But since Xiong Ye didn't feel anything, so be it.
Xiong Ye frowned when his head was touched.
He didn't like people touching his head, as if he was still a child …
But … seeing Zhou Ji looking at him with a gentle gaze, Xiong Ye felt that it was okay to be touched.
His partner had just fallen seriously ill, so he should pamper him more.
Thinking of this, Xiong Ye became happy again. "Zhou Ji, there will be delicious food later. Let's go eat!" The prey they caught yesterday would be taken out for everyone to eat today! Everyone would be able to eat to their fill!
"Okay." Zhou Ji nodded. He still hadn't finished absorbing the energy in his body, so he wasn't hungry at all. But he was very willing to watch Xiong Ye eat.
While the people in the tribe were very happy, only Lion Li watched all this coldly from the sidelines.
The forest they were in now was the Wild Forest. In the Wild Forest, many tribes didn't even have priests.
Although there were priests in their tribe, they weren't priests who had learned in the Beast Divine Temple and received the recognition of the Beast Deity. Instead, they were priests who had randomly learned the inheritance.
Such a forest was not favored by the Beast Deity at all.
Such a tribe would not be taken seriously by the Beast Deity.
Therefore, in the next year, this tribe would not have good weather at all. Instead, they would encounter many dangers.
Of course, he was different. He was someone favored by the Beast Deity and was different from the others.
As Lion Li thought of this, he faintly felt that he was above everyone else.
When he participated in the Beast Deity Ceremony just now, the energy in his body had increased by a lot. He originally thought that he would need to cultivate for at least a year before he could become a low-level beast warrior. Now, it seemed that he wouldn't need that long!
Thinking of this, Lion Li looked at the people in the tribe with disdain.
The people in this tribe had no idea how vast the outside world was.
Outside the Wild Forest, every tribe had priests. The people in these tribes knew how to grow crops and knew how to make some exquisite tools. They also divided the beastmen into many grades according to their strength, or rather, the color of the crystal core in their bodies.
Ordinary beastmen were beastmen whose crystal cores did not have any color. They were usually classified according to their beast shape and were the lowest in terms of strength.
Some beastmen lived for a long time, ate well, or experienced many battles. The crystal core in their bodies would slowly turn yellow, and they would become low-level beast warriors.
In their tribe, Xiong He, Xiong Qi, and Xiong Ye could basically become low-level beast warriors. In fact, Xiong He might already be a low-level beast warrior. As for the others, if they were lucky, they could also become low-level beast warriors.
After becoming low-level beast warriors, the size of their beast shape would naturally reach the peak of their race. For example, Xiong He and Xiong Ye would slowly reach a ton in weight after becoming low-level beast warriors.
In the outside world, some strong people would carefully nurture their children from a young age. They would hunt animals that grew beast pearls similar to the crystal cores in the beastmen's bodies for their children to eat … The children raised that way would often already be low-level beast warriors by the time they awakened at the age of ten.
It was still very easy to become a low-level beast warrior, but it was not so easy to become a mid-level beast warrior. And the sign of becoming a mid-level beast warrior was that the crystal core in the body had turned orange.
Generally speaking, in the outside tribes, the tribe leader was at least a mid-level beast warrior. Their beast shape would be at least twice the size of a low-level beast warrior!
When the crystal core in the beastman's body turned red, they would become high-level beast warriors! There were very few people like this. Some people liked to challenge the strong and would always find powerful dinosaurs to fight. Only by walking out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood could they become high-level beast warriors. There were also some people who were lucky enough to eat something and become high-level beast warriors.
Of course, to him, becoming a high-level beast warrior was nothing.
His goal was to become a beast king.
Above high-level beast warriors was the beast king. When the crystal core in a beastman's body had accumulated a lot of energy and turned purple, he could become a beast king.
A beast king's beast shape was ten times the size of an ordinary beastman. Their battle strength was also very strong. Wherever they were, powerful dinosaurs would not dare to come. Because of this, the tribes outside would find a beast king to rely on and give tributes to the beast king in order to obtain the beast king's protection.
And in his previous life, he was a beast king.
Not only that, unlike other beast kings who relied on luck or unparalleled talent to become a beast king with great difficulty, he had a way to become a beast king!
Lion Li felt that the cultivation method in the cave must have been left behind by the Beast Deity. It was a gift from the Beast Deity!
His talent was not bad, but in the outside world, it was not good at all. Even so, with that cultivation method, he would be able to become a low-level beast warrior in another two to three months!
Lion Li could not see the crystal core in his body, but he could judge his strength from the size of his beast shape. He knew that at this moment, the crystal core in his body should not have any color yet.
But it would definitely slowly take on color.
One day, he would become a beast king again and possess a beautiful purple crystal core!
The more Lion Li thought about it, the more excited he became.
Zhou Ji followed Xiong Ye to the dining area. While waiting for his meal, he urged the purple crystal core in his body to absorb the remaining energy.
The color of his crystal core was getting darker. He did not know if it would turn black in the end.
Thinking about this, Zhou Ji looked at Xiong Ye again.
What should he do to give the energy in his body to Xiong Ye? His strength was already strong enough. Now, he actually wanted to make Xiong Ye a little stronger.
This way, Xiong Ye would be able to help him hunt more delicious prey …
Alright, he actually wanted Xiong Ye to be a little stronger, a little stronger. This way, Xiong Ye could be safe and accompany him forever.
After Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji sat down, many people in the tribe came to talk to them.
"Xiong Ye, your mating ceremony today was really amazing!"
"Xiong Ye, congratulations."
"Zhou Ji, congratulations!"
…
The people in the tribe all gave their blessings to Xiong Ye and Zhou Ji being together. But after giving their blessings, they could not help but mutter in private, "Zhou Ji is so weak, why did Xiong Ye still find him?"
"With such a partner, Xiong Ye will have to work hard in the future!"
"Zhou Ji's luck is really good!"
…
Releasing his spiritual energy, he realized that the people in the tribe were envious of Zhou Ji every day. His luck was pretty good.
Thinking about this, Zhou Ji also realized that his spiritual energy had already recovered to the level before he died in his previous life. His spiritual energy could once again cover an area of one thousand meters around him.
This spiritual energy was a good thing. Not only could it be used to investigate information, but it could also be used to control others. To those whose strength was lower than his, he could scare them to death with just a pressure.
But he was not interested in using it.
He just wanted to live his little life in comfort.
While Zhou Ji was thinking about this, everyone had already started eating meat, and the most popular was a kind of white meat. Everyone fought to eat it, and Xiong Ye also snatched a big piece back. "Zhou Ji, this meat is especially delicious. It doesn't have much taste, quickly try it."
"What meat is this?" Zhou Ji asked.
Xiong Ye said, "It's not dinosaur meat."
Hearing Xiong Ye say that it was not dinosaur meat, and he did not smell anything unpleasant, Zhou Ji wanted to try this meat. But just as he was about to take it, Xiong Ye's next words came out. "It's the meat of a centipede!"
"Centipede?" Zhou Ji's expression froze, and he was a little puzzled — there were centipedes in the tribe. Although they were a little bigger than the ones he had seen in his previous life, they were only the size of a finger. How could there be such a big piece of meat?
Besides … if it was really centipede meat, he was not interested. He was not Hong Qigong.
"That's the kind of centipede!" Xiong Ye pointed at the shell of a centipede hanging on the mountain wall not far away and said, "This is the first time I've seen a centipede, and it's also the first time I've eaten its meat!"
Zhou Ji followed Xiong Ye's gaze and saw the shell of a centipede like the giant millipede he had seen yesterday hanging on the mountain wall where "trophies" such as the bone spurs of dinosaurs were hung.
The shell of the millipede was placed neatly together with the horn of the pentagonal dragon that they had hunted a few days ago.
"This was hunted by the chief and his men, but I haven't seen it yet … I wonder if I'll be able to see them in the future. I want to hunt one too." Xiong Ye's face was full of yearning. "Zhou Ji, the shell of this centipede can be exchanged for a lot of salt!"
Zhou Ji had no interest in the white meat in front of him at all. He had seen a lot of these things yesterday, and he was already traumatized!
But if Xiong Ye liked it … "You'll definitely see it in the future." He could bring Xiong Ye to the forest to have a look and let him catch it.
As for him … he could just watch from the tree.
"I think so too," Xiong Ye said and handed the meat to Zhou Ji. "Quickly try it."
"I'm still a little unwell. I don't want to eat meat. I'll just eat some fruit," Zhou Ji said.
It was indeed not good for a sick person to eat too much meat as it would make their stomachs bloated. Xiong Ye did not force Zhou Ji to eat and started eating by himself.
While he was eating, a ten-year-old black child walked over while eating meat. He stared at Zhou Ji with eyes full of curiosity.
When Xiong Ye saw this, he took a piece of centipede meat and gave it to the child. "Did you not get this meat? Here, have a taste. "
The child happily received it. "Thank you, Big Brother!"
"You're welcome. Eat more and become stronger. This way, you might be able to hunt centipedes in the future to eat," Xiong Ye said.
"I will. I want to be as strong as Big Brother!" the child said.
Zhou Ji asked, "This is?" There were many children in the tribe. He knew that this child lived in a collective cave, but he did not know who he was. After all, he had never paid attention to him.
Xiong Ye said, "This is my younger brother's fur. Doesn't he look like me?"
This was actually Xiong Ye's younger brother? Zhou Ji looked over curiously. He did not think that this person looked like Xiong Ye.
However, the energy in this person's body was a little chaotic. It looked like … he was about to condense a crystal core.
