This section of the mountain path was extremely barren. There were only hard rocks along the way, and he would feel a piercing coldness as he walked on it.
"This Ancestral Origin Mountain Range is so mysterious. Half of it is a natural creation, and the other half is a result of the methods of ancient powerhouses." Lin Tian walked on the mountain path as he thought to himself, "Why did these ancient powerhouses do all this? Just to trap the tribes in the Ancestral Origin Mountain Range? Or to leave a place for the younger generation to gain experience? "
Lin Tian's expression changed slightly. He had traveled five thousand kilometers, and he could vaguely see a skinny figure staggering forward under the cold moonlight. Lin Tian was rather surprised. He had not seen another living person since he had entered this section of the mountain path. He had never thought that there would be a person staggering forward today, and that person did not seem to have a very high cultivation.
On the long horizon, that person limped along the road, not making the slightest sound. It was a shocking sight.
"Just who is this person?"
Lin Tian became rather wary. Not only was this section of the mountain path barren, the pressure was also a dozen times greater than the previous section. In such a terrifying environment, even large protruding rocks were rarely seen, let alone a barbarian with a low cultivation base.
Lin Tian became more and more surprised as he probed with his spiritual sense. This person was wearing a beast hide, and his hair was rather exuberant. At a glance, he did not look any different from a primitive savage, but his eyes were clear, indicating that he had gained intelligence. The savage held a stone staff in his hand as he slowly advanced on the mountain path. His breathing became more and more rapid, as if he would collapse at any moment.
"Is this really a savage tribe?" Lin Tian frowned slightly. He really could not understand. This savage's cultivation was at most twice that of a peak existence. Let alone the Ancestral Origin Mountain, even if he wandered to any part of the ancestral origin, he would die for no reason. However, the traces of time left behind by the savage's ancestral origin Qi were over a thousand years old. How had he lived here for so long?
Lin Tian concealed himself and followed closely behind the old savage, carefully advancing forward.
"Awoo!" The skinny old savage suddenly stopped, his hair standing on end as he roared angrily at the night sky. In a split second, the earth-shattering sound shook the desolate mountain road. The earth trembled slightly, and gravel rolled down from the top of the mountain.
The rocks of the Ancestral Root Mountain Range were absolutely not something that could be shaken by someone at the limit of double strength. Lin Tian clearly sensed that the old savage's strength had actually risen to the initial limit of quintuple strength in that instant!
"That's impossible!"
The difference between one time limit and five times limit could not be described as the difference between heaven and earth. There was no one in the world who could cross such a distance in a short period of time. Even if the other party had deliberately concealed his fivefold limit, with Lin Tian's strength, it was impossible for him not to see through it.
After walking for another few hundred miles, there was a black forest in front of a huge rock. The Black Forest was filled with a dense mist, and any ordinary living being that came into contact with it would be corroded into white bones. Ordinary creatures wouldn't dare to come within a hundred miles of this place. But when Lin Tian looked over, he immediately understood that many of the creatures on this mountain road were residing in this place.
On the surface, the Black Forest seemed to be filled with a corrosive mist, but perhaps it was because of this that many creatures were living in peace and contentment. When Lin Tian probed with his Divine Sense, he discovered that there was a dense vitality hidden within. Lin Tian was rather curious. Just how did the creatures living in this forest enter and exit this place? It seemed that there was probably a secret passage that led inside.
As expected, the old savage circled the area several times as if to confirm that no one was following him. After several hours, the old savage finally relaxed. He moved a huge rock to the side, revealing a dark passage. Following the old savage into this passage, Lin Tian felt that the deeper he went, the denser the vitality became.
After walking several thousand feet underground, Lin Tian suddenly ascended and finally reached the surface. There wasn't much difference between this place and the underground. Sunlight couldn't be seen all year round. The only difference was that the trees were tall, but the temperature was extremely high. After following the old savage to the center of the Black Forest, Lin Tian found out the source of the heat. There was actually a pool of extremely hot spring water here.
Unlike ordinary hot springs, this spring water was not only in a boiling state for a long time, but it was also red and terrifying.
Many savages walked in with their prey in the forest. After skinning them, they soaked the meat in the spring water. In just a few seconds, the meat was cooked and emitted a rich meaty aroma. Those savages sat by the spring water and swallowed the meat in large mouthfuls. After that, they didn't even bother to wipe off the grease at the corners of their mouths before worshipping the spring water.
This spring water was heating the Black Forest and cooking food. It was obvious that these savages were worshipping it as a god.
The most amazing thing was that there were many divine stones flowing out of the spring water. Many adult savages scooped up the divine stones and slept peacefully under their heads. Invisibly, large amounts of ancestral origin energy with rich energy entered the savages' bodies and nourished them.
"Earth Ape Spirit Men?" These four words popped up in Lin Tian's mind. He had learned from Emperor Qing Mang that there was an extremely powerful primate living in the Ancestral Origin Mountains.
These creatures were called Earth Ape Spirit Men. On the surface, they looked very similar to uncivilized savages, but in reality, they were fundamentally different. They usually relied on hot springs, lava, and other high-temperature things to survive. The place they lived in produced something called Ancestral Stone. This Ancestral Stone could expand their meridians without limit. It was precisely because of this that the Earth Ape Spirit Men could unleash countless times their original strength. However, things could only move in the opposite direction when pushed to the extreme. The price of expanding their meridians without limit was that they couldn't control this energy forever.
Thus, most Earth Ape Spirit Men could only double their cultivation in their lifetime. Moreover, their bodies were frail, and they aged easily.
"Enemies!" Lin Tian and Lin Can appeared, attracting the attention of many Earth Ape Spirit Men. Not only that, but there were also powerful divine senses coming from the depths of the Black Forest. They wanted to see the two of them clearly.
"There's actually an existence with a limit of five times their original strength." Lin Tian raised his eyebrows. This level of cultivation was indeed very weak in the Ancestral Origin Mountains, but when combined with the Earth Ape Spirit Men's innate attributes, they could probably unleash eight times their original strength for a short period of time. This Earth Ape Spirit Man's cultivation had probably reached the end. He didn't know how much potential it had used up and how much it had declined.
"It's an expert from the Ancestral Soul Tribe!"
The aged savage from before roared in rage. Given his cultivation level, he was considered a leader among the Earth Ape Spirit Tribe.
"Everyone, don't be nervous. We just happened to be passing by and would like to ask you some questions," Lin Tian said in a low voice.
