At the entrance of Stone Village, a thick and completely scorched black willow quietly towered there. A single willow branch emitted a divine chain-like green multicolored light that enveloped the entire Stone Village. A halo of light pervaded the air, making it seem like a paradise within the wastelands.
The closer he got, the more Ye Xuan could feel the enormous pressure coming from the willow. At the same time, he also saw that a lot of the scorched old bark on the willow had fallen off, and there were a few more protrusions on the trunk, as if something was about to drill out.
"Senior!" Walking in front of the willow, Ye Xuan looked at the willow and said, "I wonder why you called me here?"
"I'm going into seclusion. In the next year or so, I will enter a deep sleep!" Willow Deity's voice appeared in Ye Xuan's mind.
"Senior, you want to enter a deep sleep?" Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows. He remembered that Willow Deity mentioned it the night before yesterday, but he didn't expect it to bring it up again. "Did something happen?"
"Don't worry, it's a good thing for me. After absorbing the world's laws from your precious medicine, I've gained some understanding." Willow Deity said indifferently, "However, if I enter a deep sleep, Stone Village might be in danger. This place and I can be considered to be fated, so I hope you can protect Stone Village while I'm asleep. When I wake up, I can teach you an ancient vicious beast's precious technique!"
"Many thanks for senior's good intentions, but I also live here, so naturally, I will do my best to protect the village from harm!" Ye Xuan didn't agree and said with a slight smile.
"Alright, I'm going to sleep!" Willow Deity didn't say anything else. As soon as it finished speaking, the willow branch that was originally emitting the green glow of the divine chain began to dim down, as if it had become an ordinary willow, no longer as mystical as before.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan's eyes flickered a few times. He cupped his hands towards the willow, then walked towards the chief's courtyard.
"Patriarch, Willow Deity said that he wants to hibernate for a period of time." After entering the house, Ye Xuan immediately found Shi Yunfeng and said.
He felt that it was necessary to inform the people of Stone Village. After all, the Willow Deity could be said to be their Guardian Spirit, the guardian deity that protected them in the great wastelands. If he didn't tell them, he feared that when they saw that the Willow Deity no longer protected them, they would panic. That was why Ye Xuan first found Shi Yunfeng and explained the situation.
"You can communicate with the Willow Deity?" Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Shi Yunfeng was astonished.
Although the Willow Deity was their Guardian Spirit, ever since the Willow Deity took root in their village, it never communicated with them, nor did it accept any offerings. If it wasn't for the fact that it would use its divine powers to protect the village at night, the villagers would have thought that the Willow Deity didn't want to become their Guardian Spirit.
They didn't expect that their own villagers couldn't communicate with Willow Deity, but Ye Xuan could communicate with Willow Deity not long after he arrived.
"Yes!" Ye Xuan nodded.
"Did something happen to the Willow Deity? Why did it suddenly go into hibernation? "Shi Yunfeng worriedly asked.
"Senior said that it is about to break through, so it needs to hibernate for a period of time!" Ye Xuan briefly explained to Shi Yunfeng.
"The Willow Deity is about to break through? That's a good thing, a good thing! " Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the worry on Shi Yunfeng's face disappeared, and he immediately revealed a smile, "Oh right, did the Willow Deity say how long it's going to hibernate for?"
"Senior said that it will probably need to hibernate for around a year. But chief, don't worry, during this time, I will do my best to protect everyone." Ye Xuan said to Shi Yunfeng.
"Then I'll have to trouble you!" After Shi Yunfeng heard this, he solemnly bowed to Ye Xuan.
"Chief, no need to be so polite. No matter what, I live in the village, this is what I should do." Ye Xuan smiled and waved his hand.
"Okay, then I won't be polite!" Shi Yunfeng nodded, then said, "You stay at home and help me look after the Tiny Tot, I will go out and inform everyone about the news of the Willow Deity!"
After saying this, Shi Yunfeng quickly walked out of the house and went to the village to inform the villagers of the news.
In the past, with the protection of the Willow Deity, even at night, the villagers could sleep peacefully and comfortably. But now that the Willow Deity was hibernating and had lost its protection, they couldn't be careless anymore. After all, this was the Wasteland, any vicious bird or beast that appeared could bring a great disaster to the village.
Therefore, after some discussion, the elders arranged for the villagers to have three people keep watch at night every night. This way, they could ensure that the village was vigilant enough. Even if there were really ferocious birds and beasts invading, they would be able to respond in time.
Ye Xuan did not participate in this matter, but he discussed it with Shi Yunfeng and decided to build the house he wanted to build at the entrance of the village. This way, if there were really ferocious beasts invading, he would be able to react quickly and not let the ferocious beasts bring harm to the village.
The next day, early in the morning, the morning sun shined brightly, passing through the thin morning mist between the mountains to the ground, making the entire village look like a dream.
However, the villagers woke up early in the morning and gathered in the open space in the village. They looked at Ye Xuan who was standing in front of the crowd with fiery eyes.
The reason for this was because last night, the villagers heard from Shi Yunfeng that Ye Xuan wanted to teach them martial skills. Although they didn't know what a martial skill was, it was said that it was a type of fighting technique. After learning it, it would make it easier for them to deal with the beasts in the Wasteland, and it would also make their bodies stronger.
That was enough. If they wanted to survive in the Wasteland, they just needed to be strong and strong and be able to hunt more prey. Now that Ye Xuan wanted to teach them martial arts techniques to achieve this goal, how could they not be excited?
As for whether or not Ye Xuan's words were true, the villagers never doubted it. This was because ever since Ye Xuan came to the village, everyone could see what he did. Not to mention, they all knew his cultivation. He could even kill an Archaic Descendant, so if this kind of expert wanted to teach them martial skills, they naturally couldn't ask for more.
However, in the beginning, Ye Xuan didn't teach them any profound martial skills. He only had them stand in the horse stance for an hour, then he taught them the Five Tiger Fists and a movement technique called the Clear Breeze Three Fold.
The Five Tiger Fists and Clear Breeze Triple Fold were both shallow techniques that Ye Xuan had obtained from the world of The Smiling, Proud, and Arrogant. However, even though the techniques were shallow, for the villagers of Stone Village who only knew how to practice blindly, they were already considered difficult techniques.
Just like this, in the morning, Ye Xuan went to the village to teach the villagers how to cultivate and answered their questions. As for the rest of the time, he stayed in the house alone, moving his blood and Qi, condensing the divine light, absorbing the divine essence of the world, and slowly cultivating …
