A Terrifying Village

Standing at the entrance of Stone Village, you can see only a small part of the village.

Inside the vast Stone Village, the Stone Village were following Shi Yunfeng's instructions to cut off the complete wings of birds, sever the complete claws of beasts, and pull out the thick tendons from the bodies of Ferocious Beast.

Those were all Ferocious Beast Ferocious Beast. The key was their sheer number.

"So many Ferocious Beast? Am I still half asleep?"

Some adults were shocked, for they were all terrifyingly powerful figures renowned throughout the land.

The child who jumped down from the dragon came from the LuoFu Great Marsh and was named Jiao Peng. Although small, he was sharp and domineering, and sneered, "I'm taking this willow branch. And the corpses of those Ferocious Beast. If you're not satisfied, come and try."

"Willow branches are one thing. But can your LuoFu Great Marsh handle so many Ferocious Beast corpses?"

"Then let's have a fight, a duel to the death. Do you dare?"

"What's all the noise about? Quiet down. Don't try to steal other people's things or kill their spirits all the time. Before you deal with someone, you should think about whether you can kill them." Under the adults' soothing words, the restless children quieted down and obediently followed the adults into the Stone Village.

Inside Stone Village, adults were methodically butchering the Ferocious Beast's carcass, extracting Ferocious Beast blood and vital body parts. A group of children, instead of playing, were happily carrying disproportionately large chunks of Ferocious Beast meat, bustling about the village. They were startled to see so many people enter.

Stone Village is located on the edge of the Great Wilderness, separated from the outside world by mountains hundreds of miles away. Within these mountains roam poisonous insects and ferocious beasts, and few people dare to venture into Stone Village. Let alone so many people arriving at once.

"Why are there so many people here?"

The Stone Skin Monkey was taken aback. He looked at Jiao Peng and the others, as well as people from other races. Some of them were even riding mutated Scale Horse and Unicorn. Their scales shimmered silver, and their unicorn horns were crystal clear, making them exceptionally magnificent.

"That's Unicorn. I heard Uncle Lin Hu say that this kind of mountain beast is extremely fast. It can travel 10,000 miles a day. Last time, a few of them saw it in the Great Wilderness and chased it for several days, but they didn't even catch a hair of it," Shi Dazhuang said.

The idea that Unicorn can travel 10,000 miles a day is indeed hard to entice the people of Stone Village these days.

"Look, there's a dragon coiled in the sky, over twenty meters long and as thick as a water vat. The giant even has wings. Such a powerful and ferocious Ferocious Beast... it must taste delicious, right?"

"Er Meng, you glutton. Is this thing for eating? It's for making medicine. Even if it's not a pure-blooded Primordial Remnant, its blood is still very precious."

The powerful figures outside the village were petrified, somewhat stunned. Such a powerful dragon-giant was meant to be eaten. Used for alchemy. What kind of village was this?

"It does look delicious. But it definitely doesn't have the aroma of Suan Ni meat," Shi Hao added in a childish voice, wiping his drool.

Listening to the words of the children from Stone Village, the major human races near the Great Wilderness, such as the Purple Mountain Clan, the Lei Clan, and the Jiao Clan, went mad.

This village is known for its people eating Ferocious Beast and using Ferocious Beast to make medicine. They even mentioned the Suan Ni).

"Little boy, how old are you?" an adult asked Shi Hao.

"She's almost four years old."

"Four years old, child. What's the name of your village?"

"Stone Village."

"Could we come in and rest for a while, and have some water?"

"Sure."

"Thank you so much. You're such a good child. How come there are so many Ferocious Beast in your village?"

"The Suan Ni died of old age. Some time ago, these Ferocious Beast fought fiercely over the Suan Ni. Some died, and those that weren't killed by us. That's why there are so many Ferocious Beast now."

"So that's how it is." The people continued to enter, their eyes fixed on the old Willow Tree. They paid close attention to the old Willow Tree. However, even though they secretly transmitted their thoughts to it, the Willow God paid no attention to them.

The houses in Stone Village are made of stone, and the streets are paved with bluestone. Everything looks quite ordinary, no different from other villages in the Great Wilderness.

"Hey, those cauldrons are very old, they seem to be from a very long time ago."

Several Giant Cauldron in the village, deliberately left bare, are engraved with birds, beasts, fish, and insects, their rustic and natural appearance attracting the attention of many.

"This is what we use to train our strength in our village."

"Train your strength? What about your spirit mediums?"

Soon, the topic shifted to Willow God.

What's wrong with it?

"I'm asking why your village has a sacred spirit, so why don't you try to compete for the Mountain Treasure?"

While these people were gathering information about Stone Village, their accomplices arrived at their side.

"Uncle Cang, I've already investigated. Only the old Clan Chief and a child who is only a few years old can use runes in the village. The village's spirit only appeared a few decades ago. It's not a guardian deity that existed in this lineage since ancient times."

"Since that's the case, let's just rob them. So many Ferocious Beast, why not take them if they're free?"

What do you want to do?

Shi Hao, Stone Skin Monkey, Er Meng, and the other children felt a chill.

"Naturally, it's about taking away the Ferocious Beast from your village and killing the sacrificial spirits that kill you."

"Big brother, we live a peaceful and tranquil life, and we even let you in for a drink of water. How could you do this?" Shi Hao questioned.

"Only force tells the truth. A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. Having so many good things is your greatest sin." A gifted child threw a punch at the Stone Skin Monkey.

"Awoo!"

The Stone Skin Monkey's contracted Ferocious Beast, the Old Bei, let out a wolf howl and charged towards the group.

"You dare bully us? You're asking for it."

Shi Hao and the others reacted and began fighting the outsiders who had intruded into Stone Village. The commotion attracted the attention of the village adults.

"Someone is causing trouble."

Shi Hu grabbed his Stone Axe and stood up. He wanted to help Shi Hao and the others, but Ye Feng stopped him.

"Uncle Shi Hu, let Shi Hao and Pi Hou handle it. Children have to grow up eventually," Ye Feng advised.

Ye Feng had noticed these outsiders as soon as they entered Stone Village.

"But...they are all children." Shi Hu looked at the Clan Chief Shi Yunfeng with concern.

"They are children, children of our Stone Village. Shi Hu, don't worry, with Old Bei here, these people are no match for them," Shi Yunfeng calmly reassured him.

Shi Hu hesitated for a moment, standing still with unease, gazing at the battle ahead.

Stone Skin Monkey, Er Meng, and the others, though still unable to open the first gate of the Eight Gates Technique, have made initial progress in their training these past few days. Their strength has grown to rival that of a Moving Blood Realm expert. Under their attacks, and with the help of the Old Jia wolf, all the outsiders were defeated.

"Kill them."

Ye Feng's voice carried from one end of the village to the other.

"Ah?"

Shi Hao, Stone Skin Monkey, Er Meng, and the others looked at Ye Feng in surprise.
