In the ancient Great Wilderness land, ferocious birds Exotic Beast are rampant. It was late at night, pitch black, and the scenery was invisible. But there is no tranquility in the mountains. The beasts roar, shaking the mountains and rivers, causing thousands of trees to tremble, and leaves to rustle and fall.
Among the mountains and valleys, ferocious beasts are rampant, Ancient Relic Beast appears, and all kinds of terrifying sounds come and go in the darkness, threatening to tear the world apart.
Azure Mountain Range, a soft light loomed, it was like a little Zhu Huo swaying between the endless dark night and the mountains, and it would go out at any time.
As we gradually approached the group of light, we could see clearly that there was half a huge dead tree. The trunk was more than ten meters in diameter and was completely charred black. Except for half of the main trunk, it only has one weak branch left, but it is exuding vitality. The branches and leaves are as crystal clear as carved green jade, and soft light spreads, covering a village.
This is a Lightning-Struck Wood. It encountered lightning from Tongtian many years ago. The huge crown and vigorous vitality of the old Willow Tree seemed to have been destroyed. Today, only a section of tree stump eight or nine meters high is left on the surface, which is surprisingly thick.
On the charred tree stump, there was only one willow branch shining brightly, filling the air like a divine chain of green clouds. It shrouded and protected the entire village, making this habitat hazy, like a fairyland, and seemed very mysterious in this vast wilderness.
This is Sacred Guardian belonging to this ancient village, a very special kind of existence. It is not easy to survive in Great Wilderness, there are many races, and the remnants of the ancient times are everywhere. The human race and some relatively weak races will choose to enshrine some mysterious and powerful beings and worship them.
Sacred Guardian and the protected tribe have a relationship of mutual achievement. The tribe relies on the power of Sacred Guardian to survive and develop. Sacred Guardian gained devotion and faith. Faith Power has many wonderful uses in practice. The more powerful the force, the stronger the Sacred Guardian it enshrines.
The scale of the village under the Azure Mountain Range is not that big. With dead trees and green willows as Sacred Guardian, it doesn't seem to be very strong.
In the ancient Stone Village, every household in the village is a stone house. In the dead of night, the place is peaceful and quiet, as if it is isolated from the darkness of the outside world and the roar of beasts.
"Woo..."
A strong wind blew by, and a huge dark cloud crossed the sky, covering the entire night sky and blocking the only stars. The mountains became even darker.
The ferocious bird song came from high in the sky, piercing through gold and cracking rocks, and it actually originated from that dark cloud. If you look closely, it turned out to be an incredibly huge bird, Shrouding the Heavens covering the moon, and it was unknown how many miles long it was.
The giant bird flew over Azure Mountain Range, looking down at the earth below. Its eyes were like two Blood Moon wheels. It was fierce and fierce. It stared at the old willow tree for a moment, and finally flew to the deepest part of the mountain range.
Among Great Wilderness, there are countless ferocious birds of different species, and occasionally ferocious and violent ones, killing without limit. Without the protection of strong Grand Sacrifice spirits, the weak tribes and races will be in danger.
"Boom..."
Deafening thunder suddenly sounded, and the rumbling thunder frightened Divine Bird. The whole Great Wilderness was trembling, and the ground shook, as if the end was coming.
The crashing thunderstorm was rapid, and the sound of falling raindrops was dense and terrifying. It was continuous and gave no one a chance to breathe. It seemed like a vast river was pouring down, and it was extremely violent.
Heavy rain, lightning and thunder, scattered lightning bolts, thicker than the mountains, falling from the sky, like Thunder Dragon with teeth and claws, splitting more than a dozen mountains into powder in an instant, no longer existing, the void was blackened, and the air was filled with a faint smell of burning.
"What's going on? Why is there such a big thunderstorm suddenly?"
In the ancient village, several majestic figures came out and looked up at the sky under Sacred Guardian Willow Tree, hoping to discover something.
"Brother Yunfeng, I have a bad feeling."
Several strong men in the ancient village were discussing, and a group of people's eyes focused on a middle-aged man, Shi Yunfeng, the patriarch of the village. When he was young, he left Stone Village to wander around, and he was considered a well-informed person.
"Tonight... this thunderstorm is a little unusual, making people a little breathless."
"It's very wrong. I've never seen such a quiet Great Wilderness rainy night. Those ferocious wolves in Nanshan like howling the most. They howl in the middle of the night, but now they are so quiet."
"I was woken up several times tonight and felt chills in my skin and bones."
Next to Shi Yunfeng, several gray-haired old people started talking. Although their hair and beards had already turned white, they were still energetic and their faces were glowing red. These were old people in the village who had experienced many things.
"We have Sacred Guardian guarding us. The village will be safe and sound. You don't have to worry too much."
Shi Yunfeng looked at the huge Lightning-Struck Wood at the end of the village and said firmly. Several old people nodded, and many backbones of the village discussed for a long time with no results, and finally left with a heavy heart.
"Today is indeed too unusual. It's not like a thunderstorm falling from the sky, but more like the legendary... tribulation."
Shi Yunfeng sent everyone away and came to Sacred Guardian Willow Tree in the thunderstorm. He raised his head and looked up at the sky. There seemed to be a thick layer of black clouds condensed there, which was so thick that it could not be dissolved, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"Boom..."
With a loud bang in the sky, the terrifying thunder light made Azure Mountain Range as bright as day. Shi Yunfeng saw a horrifying picture. A huge Sea of Thunder appeared on the sky. The mighty power of God covered the heaven and earth. Everyone on All Beings on the earth trembled and kowtowed in submission.
"This is..."
Shi Yunfeng's body couldn't help but tremble, and he felt an inexplicable fear. At this moment, the charred dead wood glowed, and the weak wicker exuding the gleaming green glow swayed gently in the thunderstorm. A wonderful force fell, and Shi Yunfeng felt much better.
Shi Yunfeng is fine, but under this divine power, countless Azure Mountain Range creatures are terrified. Whether they are ordinary wild beasts or powerful Ancient Relic Beast, they are trembling. Divine Soul are uneasy and do not dare to express their anger.
Even Pureblood among the ferocious beasts bowed their heads and looked up at the sky with awe in their eyes. They were nothing more than weak ants in front of the mighty Heaven.
The thunder was so terrible that the villagers were awakened, and the cries of children could be heard in many stone houses. The men guarded the women, hugged their wives and children, and whispered comfort, trying to eliminate their fear.
"Buzzing..."
On Lightning-Struck Willow, a wicker stick is like a green cloud Divine Chain, filled with halo, releasing soft light, guarding the village, making the place hazy, like a fairyland, undisturbed by thunderstorms.
"What the hell is this..."
Shi Yunfeng in front of Willow Tree stood frozen on the spot, his face turned pale. He saw Sea of Thunder surging, and the thunder was rolling, turning into a legendary creature. Spirit, True Dragon, Phoenix, Qilin... The person's scalp felt tight when he saw it, his body was stiff and his two limbs were trembling, and he had no strength to even move.
Sea of Thunder was vast, and there were all kinds of strange phenomena. He vaguely saw a Dao Body shadow floating in it, and he thought of a rainy night more than ten years ago.
He was still a young man, and it was also a thunderstorm day like this. A willow tree covering the sky was bathed in a sea of thunder, and lightning as thick as a mountain was swirling. Thousands of willow branches turned into blazing divine chains, piercing the endless sky, terrifying to the sky.
This Willow Tree seems to be fighting against something, showing a terrifying power. In the end, Willow Tree was chopped down, leaving only a blackened tree stump, which fell on Stone Village and took root.
After that night, their village's original Sacred Guardian, a strange stone escaped, and Lightning-Struck Willow became their village's new Sacred Guardian. However, the name of the village has not changed, it is still called, Stone Village.
Originally, Shi Yunfeng had somewhat forgotten this memory, but tonight's thunderstorm reminded him of this past event involuntarily. Although the two pictures are separated by decades, they are very similar. Both are unparalleledly shocking and equally shocking.
"Boom..."
The sound of surprise Heavenly Thunder sounded again, Shi Yunfeng's pupils were condensed as he stood frozen on the spot, and a black shadow fell from the thunderstorm, hitting Stone Village heavily.
Shi Yunfeng only heard a buzzing sound, his ears were almost deafened, and his vision was even blurry. He fell down and sat there for a long time before regaining some consciousness. After he stood up reluctantly, he saw something extra under Willow Tree at the end of the village.
"This is, Stone Statue?"
He carefully walked away Past, and saw a large stone leaning against the roots of the lightning-struck dead tree. It looked like a statue, with a vague outline of a human figure. He seemed to be holding a Nine-Story Stone Pagoda in his arms, which looked very extraordinary.
"Buzzing..."
Willow Tree Suddenly there was movement. On top of the charred wooden pile, a bright green branch swayed gently, and the buds were in bud, releasing a soft light.
Little bits of light rained down on Stone Statue. Shi Yunfeng felt that there seemed to be something different about this Stone Statue, but he couldn't tell exactly what it was.
"Willow Deity, you mean, stay?"
Shi Yunfeng spoke carefully, and the willow branches swayed as if in response. The former seemed to have received some kind of hint, nodded and left the place.
Great Wilderness The thunderstorm that night quickly subsided, and nothing happened to the ancient Stone Village. However, after this night, Great Wilderness Stone Village Under Sacred Guardian Willow Deity, there is an additional Stone Statue embracing Divine Tower, accepting the worship and enshrinement of Stone Village together.
"Ziling, look, First Ancestral Land, this is the ancestral land of the Shi Clan."
Outside the Azure Mountain Range, a couple came to Stone Village after going through hardships. The man was stalwart, the woman was pretty, and she was holding an infant baby in her arms.
The couple's faces were full of exhaustion. After seeing the miraculous lightning strike Willow Tree, their eyes suddenly lit up and a sense of hope arose.
"Mom, I'm cold..."
Weak and unconscious murmurs sounded, and the surprise on the couple's faces instantly turned to distress. In the woman's arms, a thin baby curled up, dying, as if it would die at any time.
"Hao'er, my poor Hao'er."
The child's mother couldn't help wiping away tears. This was their child, who was once extremely healthy, smart, and cute. He was born with Supreme, but he was assassinated by relatives of the same race and took away his child's Supreme Bone.
The originally healthy and lively child is now so thin and small, his eyes have no luster, his former agility and wisdom are gone, his body is deteriorating, and he may die at any time.
"Father, mother, cough cough..."
The weak child reluctantly opened his eyes. After seeing his parents, he subconsciously opened his little hands and smiled heartlessly. The family affection and warmth made him feel comfortable. But his condition worsened again, his face became paler and paler, he kept coughing, he often shivered, and his whole body was cold.
"Who are you?"
A powerful voice sounded, Shi Yunfeng came to the entrance of the village, his eyes full of vigilance. Having traveled before, he could see that the couple's cultivation was extremely high.
"Old man, I wonder if this is the ancestral land... and you?"
This couple had some bad premonitions after seeing Shi Yunfeng. The old man had some cultivation, but not much, and it was really too low. It is said that this is the ancestral land of their Stone Kingdom, and it is said that they have a lot of background. How could this be?
Shi Yunfeng recalled some past events recorded in the clan, nodded and said, "Ancestral land? What you are talking about should be the branch that our ancestors left Great Wilderness countless years ago to open up. After calculation, Stone Village is indeed the ancestral land, and I am the current clan leader of Stone Village, Shi Yunfeng."
"My name is Shi Ziling. This is my wife Qin Yining. Our child Shi Hao was assassinated and had his bones taken away. I heard that the ancestral land has supreme heritage..."
Shi Ziling spoke quickly. The couple went through all kinds of hardships to find the ancestral land in order to use the ancestral land's heritage to save their children. Now they finally see hope. Could it be that...
"The heritage of the ancestral land? Sorry, we can't save this child."
Shi Yunfeng's face showed bitterness, "After the strongest group of ancestors went out through the thorns, Stone Village gradually declined, and the inheritance was also broken. Now we are just struggling to survive among Great Wilderness..."
Shi Ziling and Qin Yining listened to Shi Yunfeng introducing the current situation of Stone Village, and their hearts gradually fell to the bottom. They spent so much money to find the ancestral land, but they didn't expect such a result. Could it be said that it was God's will to kill people.
"Why, God, what's wrong with my Hao'er..."
Shi Ziling looked up to the sky and roared, causing the heaven and earth to shake in all directions. He was filled with grief and anger, unwilling and unjust for his child.
"Ziling, don't be like this, we still have a way, there is a way..."
Qin Yining grabbed her husband, her eyes were red, and she had already made a decision in her heart. Her origins are also extraordinary, but in order to be with Shi Ziling, she basically broke off the relationship there. But now for the sake of her own children, she can only go there once.
"But Hao'er's body..."
Shi Ziling calmed down after the madness, but considering the child's health, he was afraid that he would not be able to endure the long journey.
"Buzzing..."
At this time, the crystal willow branch swaying in the breeze glowed, and the child in Qin Yining's arms suddenly became much more peaceful, and his condition seemed no longer to deteriorate.
"Willow Deity, thank you for saving this child."
Seeing this, Shi Yunfeng quickly thanked Sacred Guardian, and Shi Ziling and Qin Yining also had a glimmer of hope on their faces. Although Stone Village is in decline, this Sacred Guardian is very extraordinary, and their child can still be saved.
After a brief discussion, the couple asked Shi Yunfeng to temporarily take care of their child, while they traveled to other places to find ways to completely save the child.
"You Little Rascal, you haven't been weaned yet! You're such a pitiful little thing. I want you to drink something next. Animal milk should be fine!"
Shi Yunfeng held the little child and came to Willow Tree. The crystal clear blue light gradually turned blood on the child's face. At this moment, the child suddenly opened his eyes, and then a small hand touched Stone Statue who fell on Willow Tree.
"Click..."
A sudden crisp sound startled Shi Yunfeng, and then he saw a surprising scene. The Stone Statue that was touched by Little Rascal had a few cracks, and they expanded rapidly.
A ray of purple light shot into the sky, and the Stone Pagoda in Stone Statue's arms suddenly split into Purple Radiance and fell on the Little Rascal, causing a fundamental change in his state. He seemed to be more alive and alive again.
Yesterday, I saw some book friends mentioning the recent progress and plot issues. I originally wanted to write two extra chapters of Shrouding the Heavens, Jade Pool and Big Dipper. Path to Immortality or something like that, but continuing to write the ending of Shrouding the Heavens does seem to be a bit watered down, and the starting point has been tightened recently, so writing Jade Pool or something like that is easy to cross the line, so let's go directly to the new main line! I will write the extra plot later when I have the opportunity, and I won't miss it anyway.
