The boundless mountain range was barren. Within the great wastelands, tigers roared and apes cried. Vicious birds flew across the sky. However, Stone Village, under the shroud of the divine chain-like green mist, was quiet and peaceful, as if it was separated from the great wastelands by a different world.
The disc-sized silver moon sprinkled down mercury-like moonlight onto the earth, dyeing the entire earth with a silver luster.
It was already deep into the night, and the villagers of Stone Village had already entered the land of dreams. At this time, a figure appeared outside the house, walking alone towards the withered willow that was emitting a gentle light.
The withered willow was still silent, and just like that, it stood at the entrance of Stone Village. The only weak willow branch on the willow tree was swaying in the wind, and its branches and leaves were sparkling and translucent, as if they were carved from green jade. On top of it, it emitted a gentle light that enveloped the entire Stone Village.
Ye Xuan walked in front of the willow tree alone. Looking at this scorched black tree with only a dozen or so meters in diameter remaining, the depths of his eyes continuously flickered with a sharp light.
The closer he got to this withered willow, the more Ye Xuan could feel that this withered willow was not ordinary. Although it was silent, it seemed to be the only thing in the world, and was worshiped by the gods. It was extremely mysterious.
Ye Xuan would never forget the first time he came to Stone Village. The first time he saw the willow tree, he saw a terrifying scene in his spiritual sense. There were countless galaxies, and there were hundreds of thousands of worlds. Among them, there seemed to be countless ancestors offering sacrifices, and there were tens of thousands of spirits worshiping it. It emitted an aura that could suppress the ages.
"Senior, thank you for helping me last night!" Ye Xuan stood in front of the withered willow and solemnly bowed towards it.
The gentle wind swayed the willow branch, and it was silent. The withered willow seemed to have no consciousness, and did not respond to Ye Xuan's words or actions.
Straightening his body, Ye Xuan muttered to himself for a moment, and his right hand turned over. Suddenly, an ancient jade box appeared in his hand.
When the jade box appeared, Ye Xuan felt the space around him tremble. An invisible energy emanated from Withered Willow's body.
Sensing the changes in the air, Ye Xuan understood. He then opened the jade box in his hand and saw a small jade-like grass. The shape of the grass was quite peculiar, and it looked like a true dragon that soared through the nine heavens. There was a small vermillion fruit in the dragon's mouth, as if it was the dragon's pearl.
The Spiritual Dragon Dew was not a precious medicine of this world, but a floral spirit from the world of "Swallowed Star", which had a very magical effect.
"This is a token of my gratitude. Willow Deity, please accept it!" Ye Xuan placed the jade box on the altar and said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
Chi!!!
Suddenly, the willow branch, which was originally emitting a gentle light, emitted a bright light. Its entire body was sparkling and translucent, and the originally charred withered willow seemed to be emitting an infinite vitality.
"You're not from this world, are you?" A gentle voice suddenly sounded in Ye Xuan's mind. "You've sealed your cultivation. No wonder you can stay in this world for so long."
"Senior, you're really insightful. I'm indeed not from this world." Ye Xuan admitted it very straightforwardly.
Since Willow Deity had already seen through his cultivation situation, there was no point in hiding it in the face of such a powerful being's magical power. It was better to admit it openly.
"The energy you cultivate is very peculiar!" Willow Deity said again. "It's a cultivation system that I've never seen before."
"There are three thousand worlds in the universe, and each world has its own cultivation system. Could it be that Senior has seen all the worlds?" Ye Xuan said with a slight smile.
"That's true!" Willow Deity said indifferently.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, the green mist on the withered willow was like a chain, and it directly wrapped around the jade box on the altar. The "Spiritual Dragon Dew", which was a plant spirit, was swept onto the withered willow's body. Divine light flashed, and the "Spiritual Dragon Dew" was directly refined into a drop of liquid that flickered with golden light. Then, it was absorbed into the withered willow's body.
"This precious medicine of yours is very useful to me at the moment." After absorbing the "Spiritual Dragon Dew", Willow Deity's voice once again appeared in Ye Xuan's mind. "Tell me, what do you want? My current abilities are limited, but I can still teach you some of the Primordial Descendant's precious techniques."
"Thank you, Senior. However, Junior doesn't want the precious techniques. Junior wants Senior to guide Junior's cultivation." Ye Xuan shook his head and said.
"You're very smart!" Willow Deity's voice seemed to have a hint of a smile, as if it was satisfied with Ye Xuan's request. Then, it said, "I've said it before, your cultivation system is very special. With your current physique, it has already surpassed that of ordinary Primordial Vicious Beasts when they were young. Even compared to the Primordial Vicious Ten when they were young, it is not much inferior. So, if you want to cultivate using the cultivation method of this world, I suggest that you first develop your physique to the limit. "
"Although the precious techniques are indeed very important, if your physique is strong enough to break through the void, then even if you only cultivate a single secret realm, it is enough for you to dominate the world."
"Senior, may I ask, how was the physique of the Primordial Vicious Ten when they were young?" Ye Xuan asked after thinking for a moment.
"The Primordial Vicious Ten can fight against Immortal Kings when they are adults, and when they are young, they can already lift millions of kilograms of Godly metal." Willow Deity patiently guided.
"Thank you, Senior, for your guidance!" Ye Xuan bowed towards the withered willow.
"If you can lift millions of kilograms of Godly metal, then you can break through to the Grotto-Heaven Realm," Willow Deity added.
"Yes, I understand, Senior!" Ye Xuan nodded.
"Alright, you can go. I want to break down and absorb the laws of the world contained in this precious medicine of yours, so I need to sleep. Don't look for me for the time being!" Willow Deity said.
"Yes, Senior!"
After Willow Deity finished speaking, the dazzling divine light on the withered willow gradually dissipated, and it returned to its original gentle light. The willow branches swayed in the wind, and it was silent.
Looking at the withered willow that had returned to its original state, Ye Xuan bowed towards the withered willow again, and then turned around and walked towards the chief's courtyard.
The moonlight was like water, and a light breeze blew gently. Everything returned to normal.
The night passed uneventfully!
Early the next morning, when Ye Xuan finished cultivating, he found that Shi Yunfeng had already prepared breakfast. The fragrance of meat and milk filled the whole house.
Seeing that Ye Xuan had gotten up, Shi Yunfeng fed Tiny Tot some milk and called out, "Ye Xuan, you're up. Come, it's time to eat breakfast!"
"Yes, Patriarch!" Ye Xuan didn't stand on ceremony. He walked to the side and scooped up a bowl of milk, some coarse biscuits, and beast meat, and placed them on the table.
After finishing breakfast, Ye Xuan suddenly said, "Oh right, Chief, I see that the materials are almost ready. I plan to make a trip to Little Lonely Mountain Town today to sell those things and forge a few weapons."
