Unknowingly, it had already been half a year since Ye Xuan returned to Stone Village.
Stone Village was still as peaceful as before. Within the desolate mountain range, there were no signs of human habitation within a circumference of a hundred li. Even the powerful ancient vicious beasts did not dare to linger outside the village, because in the past half a year, several powerful Archaic Descendants had already disappeared from this area. This place was treated as a forbidden area by the vicious beasts.
Of course, the main reason why the vicious beasts did not dare to enter was because of Ye Xuan. In order to baptize the little guy and the children in the village, Ye Xuan often ordered the Black Vulture Eagle to hunt the powerful vicious beasts in the desolate mountain range, leaving behind their true blood and precious bones for future use.
Early in the morning, the gentle morning sun shone through the mountain mist and illuminated the village, enveloping the entire mountain village in a golden hue.
At this time, in the village, countless villagers had already woken up early. They all stood in the village's cleared open space, watching the village's children and youths practice martial arts in the middle.
All of the children and youths were naked from the waist up. Although they were still young, their muscles were solid, and each of them looked like the cubs of vicious beasts. Their bodies were terrifyingly strong.
Hu! ~ ~
Hah! ~ ~
Ha!!! ~ ~
Shouts came from the mouths of the children and youths, echoing above the village. Sweat splashed everywhere, and every one of them held weapons that weighed at least two hundred jin in their hands. They did not seem to be strenuous at all, and when they were brandished, the sound of wind whistled through the air.
The little guy, Shi Hao, was also within this group of people. In his hand was a two meter tall, arm-thick staff polished from the bones of vicious beasts. This bone staff was at least three hundred jin in weight, but in his hand, it was like a toothpick. As he brandished it, afterimages of the staff could be seen everywhere, scaring the surrounding children to the point where they did not dare to approach him.
Peng!!! ~ ~ ~
A muffled sound rang out. A child who looked to be only six or seven years old lifted up a one-meter-tall boulder and threw it. The boulder flew for more than ten meters before landing heavily on the ground, creating a large crater. Sand and stones flew in all directions, dust rose up, and the ground trembled.
"Good, worthy of being I's child, able to throw four to five hundred jin rocks at six or seven years old, just like I when I was young, haha!" A middle-aged villager in the crowd laughed heartily when he saw the six or seven year old child throw the big stone. His face was full of pride.
"Haha, Shi Yong, what are you bragging about? I watched you grow up. When you were six or seven years old, you couldn't even lift a hundred kilograms!" Another villager exposed him mercilessly.
Rumble!
The ground trembled and sand and dust flew into the air. The surrounding villagers all turned their gazes in that direction and saw a child about eight or nine years old standing beside a bronze tripod. He was panting like an ox and sweating profusely. His arms were trembling slightly, but he had a smile on his face.
There were several large cauldrons in the middle of the open space. The bronze cauldron was the smallest among them, but it still weighed more than a thousand pounds. There were pictures of birds and beasts on it, and it was overflowing with an ancient aura. The walls of the cauldron were very thick and gave off a kind of heavy atmosphere. The cauldron walls were very smooth due to being grabbed and lifted by people all year round. They were polished to the point that they looked like the surface of a mirror, and there were patterns of the Vermillion Bird divine beast imprinted on them.
"Good! I didn't think that such a small Stone Flood Dragon would be able to lift this thousand jin cauldron. In the future, it might even be able to defeat those Archaic Descendants outside the mountain range!" All the villagers couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when they saw the little Stone Flood Dragon being able to lift a thousand jin cauldron at such a young age.
"Haha, good! Not bad! I'll get your mom to make you a Golden Feather Goose in the morning!" Shi Feijiao laughed happily when he saw his son giving him so much face.
"I'll give it a try too!"
With someone taking the lead, the other children were all eager to give it a try. A skinny child about the same age as the little Stone Flood Dragon also walked out and walked towards the cauldron.
"Haha, frisky monkey, you're so skinny. Be careful not to get crushed by the cauldron!" some villagers said out of goodwill.
"Frisky monkey, if you can lift the bronze cauldron today, your lunch today will be your favorite Golden Leg of Lamb!" the frisky monkey's father, Shi Wu, said loudly.
The frisky monkey's eyes lit up when he heard his father's words. He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva when he thought of the delicious Golden Leg of Lamb. Afterwards, he walked under the bronze cauldron and squatted down to support the bottom of the cauldron, then exerted force.
"Rise!"
Following the frisky monkey's deep cry, the five hundred jin cauldron slowly rose from the ground under the villagers' gazes.
"Good, go, frisky monkey!"
"Amazing!"
The villagers cheered happily when they saw the frisky monkey could actually lift the five hundred jin bronze cauldron.
In the great wilderness, there was nothing more worthy of the villagers' respect than experts. Moreover, the frisky monkey and the others were still children of the village. They could lift a five hundred jin cauldron at the age of nine. When they grew up, they would become the village's protectors.
Ye Xuan had also woken up early and was standing among the crowd. He couldn't help but smile in relief when he saw Frisky Monkey and the little Stone Flood Dragon, who weren't even nine years old yet, being able to lift a five hundred jin cauldron.
Unlike the original plot, due to Ye Xuan's existence, they would often hunt powerful archaic species back to the village. Whether it was the flesh of the archaic species or the bone powder refined from their precious bones, they were all extremely rare in the outside world. Even the heirs of large clans with tens of millions of people rarely had the chance to eat the flesh of archaic species and soak in the bone powder refined from their precious bones in medicinal baths.
Although it was only about half a year, eating the flesh of archaic species and soaking in the bone powder refined from their precious bones in medicinal baths not only greatly increased the strength of the children, but the villagers also received great benefits. Other than Shi Linghu and Shi Feijiao, another three villagers had broken through to the Blood Transformation Realm, greatly increasing Stone Village's strength.
"Haha, what do you think? Ye Xuan, you also feel that these little fellows aren't bad!" Shi Yunfeng, who was standing to the side, saw that Ye Xuan also revealed a gratified smile and laughed.
Compared to half a year ago, Shi Yunfeng had eaten the top quality Snow Jade Ginseng that Ye Xuan gave him. In addition to the proper nurturing, Shi Yunfeng's internal injuries had already completely healed. He had recovered his Heavenly Passage Realm strength, and his entire body seemed to have become ten years younger. The wrinkles on his face had also decreased by a lot.
"En, they are indeed not bad. I presume that within a ten thousand li radius, there are very few people of the same age that can compare to them." Ye Xuan nodded with a smile.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Shi Yunfeng also nodded his head. Then, his eyes and words were filled with gratitude. "It's all thanks to you that they can become so powerful. If they didn't frequently consume the flesh and blood of Ancient Descendants, as well as soak in the medicinal baths of Ancient Descendants' true blood and precious bones, they wouldn't be able to reach this level!"
