With a thought, those few items were wrapped up by a willow branch and vanished from where they had been.

The Stone Clan Elder's expression changed. Thinking Nuwa intended to seize them by force, he immediately prepared to activate a secret technique to recall the Black Cauldron and flee.

Unfortunately, he discovered that he had already lost all sense of the Black Cauldron, and they themselves had been immobilized in place, utterly unable to move.

The Stone Clan Elder was horrified. How could this Willow Tree be so powerful?

Immediately afterward, regret and despair welled up in the Elder's heart. He had misjudged this Willow Tree. The Stone Clan truly might be doomed.

However, just then, the Stone Clan Elder suddenly discovered that he could move again. The Black Cauldron and the Animal Skin medicine prescription reappeared before him.

At the same time, a cool voice rang out in his mind.

"This white bone is rather interesting. Lend it to me for a few days of study, and you may reside in the valley."

Hearing this, the Stone Clan Elder was overjoyed. He repeatedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Lady Willow Spirit, for your mercy. The Stone Clan will never forget this! Shi Yun, Shi Fang, hurry and lead the clanspeople here. Lady Willow Spirit has agreed to protect us. Hurry, hurry!"

"Yes, Elder!"

The young man who had been called out was delighted as well, and he hurriedly ran toward another mountain peak.

In just a few days, the valley designated by Nuwa had been turned into a small village.

Nuwa, meanwhile, examined the white bone while occasionally observing these never-before-seen lifeforms.

She gradually discovered that these lifeforms were rather interesting... She had caught a cold and was coughing so hard the world spun around her. Damn it! How annoying! Please send flowers and recommendation votes!

Nuwa naturally did not know much about the great treasures of the Great Desolation World.

Through the white bone provided by the Stone Clan, she gained a rough understanding of the cultivation methods of the Great Desolation World.

This white bone was extremely strange. It could engrave inheritances of techniques.

Not only could one cultivate the techniques recorded on it, some could even possess a new body of flesh and blood, once again displaying their divine might.

Nuwa guessed that this white bone had originated from an ultimate powerhouse, whose cultivation realm had perhaps reached the level of a half-step Immortal Emperor.

However, this bone was far too ancient. Its vitality was completely gone, leaving behind only a few records of techniques.

Its name seemed to be the Primordial True Explanation, but it was incomplete. The cultivation methods recorded within were also rather basic, with no particularly profound techniques.

If one called it precious, it was passable, but that was about it.

Through this white bone, Nuwa also learned the names of the realms in this world.

Blood Transference, Heavenly Passage, Spirit Transformation, Inscription... and so on.

Nuwa did not take any of these too seriously. The important thing was the immortal path of the Great Desolation World.

The Immortal Ones were called True Immortals, while the Immortal Kings were called Immortal Kings!

The Primordial World also had the True Immortal Realm, but its True Immortals differed from those of the Great Desolation World. They merely shared the same name.

Based on Nuwa's deductions and calculations, the True Immortals of the Great Desolation World—in other words, the Immortal Ones—should be roughly equivalent to Golden Immortals of the Primordial World.

As for the Immortal Kings of the Great Desolation World, who were also called Immortal Kings, they might be able to match Grand Unity Golden Immortals of the Primordial World.

Above them, the Immortal Emperors were very likely at the level of Grand Unity Golden Immortals!

The origins and essences of different worlds varied, which also created all kinds of differences. It was not necessarily true that either side could absolutely crush the other.

However, in terms of their respective combat strength, Nuwa's estimate should not be wrong.

After learning the names of these cultivation realms, Nuwa finally figured out who her potential enemies were: the owners of the Thunder Marks.

Without a doubt, they were two Immortal Kings!

The green willow's primordial spirit swayed among the branches. Nuwa muttered to herself, "The original body's identity is far from ordinary. It actually provoked more than one Immortal King!"

Unfortunately, the former Willow Tree Body contained no relevant memories. Nuwa knew nothing about the Willow Tree's past.

But it was not a major problem. She was now in the Mystic Immortal Realm, and the gap between her and them was steadily closing.

Although, as her realm and strength increased, Nuwa could no longer advance one level every few days as she had before,

with a few hundred years, she would certainly be able to advance to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. She might even break into the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm in a short time and perhaps reach the level of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal!

By then, everything would come to light!

Not long afterward, Nuwa returned the white bone to Stone Village. It was of no use to her.

Before entering seclusion to break through, she also took some time to properly observe these strange yet familiar lifeforms.

Someone had brought back a wild deer. Someone had joined with someone else. Someone else had given birth to a little one...

This was a race born with the form of an Innate Dao Body, yet innately frail!

And yet these weak lifeforms could overcome one difficulty after another through their tenacity, unity, and optimism.

Nuwa even learned from their conversations that this race was the greatest race in the outside world. It was truly inconceivable!

If such a race existed in the Primordial World, it would definitely be food for those at the very bottom, and would find survival nearly impossible!

No, that might not necessarily be true!

Perhaps, relying on the various qualities they were displaying now, a race like this could also shine brightly in the Primordial World.

It was just a pity... the Primordial World had no such potential race... What a pity...

Nuwa sighed regretfully. In the years that followed, she no longer paid much attention to Stone Village and devoted herself wholeheartedly to cultivation.

Unless a powerful enemy capable of destroying the village attacked, she basically would not intervene.

In truth, there was nothing for her to intervene in. Even if some reckless lifeform came here, it would be scared away upon seeing her towering Willow Tree Body that blotted out the heavens.

Nuwa never interfered in the village's internal affairs. As for offerings and the like, she had never used them either.

The entire village gradually changed from calling her Lady Willow Spirit to the mysterious Willow God passed down from generation to generation!

Under her casual protection, Stone Village also grew stronger with each generation.

After several generations, a few exceptionally talented youths were born among them. They comprehended the cultivation methods within the bone and advanced rapidly onto the path of cultivation.

These were all members of the new generation. Proud and ambitious, they were unwilling to remain hidden in the Vast Mountain Range. They wanted to venture outside and seek the glory of their ancestors!

Some villagers were unwilling to leave, saying that their current lives were quite good. The two sides broke into conflict.

In the end, under the leadership of a monstrous youth in the Formation Realm, most of the clanspeople who had embarked on the path of cultivation left Stone Village together.

The conservative villagers who remained once again became the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled they had been at the beginning.

At first, the Stone Village clanspeople who had left would return from time to time, bringing them supplies or news.

For example, their Stone Clan had slaughtered its way across the outside world and established a great nation—the Stone Kingdom!

However, as time passed, the descendants of those clanspeople rarely returned.

Gradually, Stone Village in the Vast Mountain Range became the ancestral land of legend, while the Stone Clan outside nearly severed its inherited ties with it.

Until one day, the peaceful Stone Village welcomed an uninvited guest... Please send flowers and recommendation votes...

In the Vast Mountain Range, a husband and wife were moving swiftly through the forest.

From their attire, it was obvious that their identities were extraordinary. They were certainly either wealthy or noble.

However, both husband and wife were wounded and bloodstained, as if they had just gone through a fierce battle.

As they hurried through the forest, the couple looked extremely anxious, repeatedly glancing at the woman's arms.

The woman was holding a baby who was still swaddled.

The infant was on the verge of death. There was blood on his chest as well, and his little face was deathly pale, making him look as though he had already stopped breathing.

"Xiao Hao, hold on! Xiao Hao!"

"We're almost at the ancestral land! We'll be there soon!"

"Ziling, why haven't we arrived yet? Quickly check the map Father left behind. Did we take the wrong path?"

Amid the woman's anxious urging, they finally saw a towering Willow Tree in the distance.

"We're here! It's over there—that's the sacrificial spirit of our ancestral land!"

Shi Ziling cried out in delight. Inscription after Inscription appeared across his body, and in the next moment, he carried his wife and child through the air at high speed.

A few breaths later, the couple finally reached Stone Village.

Their father had once returned to the ancestral land with their grandfather. Because of that, they had been able to obtain a map leading back to their ancestral land.

Thump—

As soon as Shi Ziling reached the outskirts of the ancestral land, he knelt directly on the ground and shouted, "Unfilial descendant Shi Ziling requests an audience with the clanspeople of the ancestral land!"

His voice was loud, naturally drawing many of the Stone Village clanspeople over.

The Stone Village clanspeople could also tell that this clansman before them was likely a descendant of someone who had once left Stone Village.

The Old Village Chief of this generation looked Shi Ziling and his wife up and down before asking, "What were the names of your parents?"

"Shi Zhongtian!" Shi Ziling replied.

Upon hearing this name, the Old Village Chief froze for a moment, then smiled. "So you're the descendant of that little madman. You parted when you were young, and now so many years have passed. You even have a son this big. Hmm, little fellow, what happened to you?"

Only then did the Old Village Chief notice that there was also a little baby in the woman's arms.
