The end of this quasi-emperor peak is coming

Chapter 179 Perfect Stone Village
Shi Village is located in the vast mountain range, surrounded by high peaks and valleys, with towering mountains.

The morning glow in the early morning is bright and shining, sprinkling on the earth like broken gold, and the warm morning glow bathes people's bodies.

The young man stretched lazily, sat down under an old willow tree that was scorched by lightning, and continued to study the special patterns carefully. In front of him was a group of children who were exercising, ranging from four or five years old to teenagers, there were dozens of them.

Their faces were full of seriousness. The older children were full of energy and the younger children were also drawing very well, humming and laughing as they exercised.

Next to this group of children, a middle-aged man with muscles as strong as a tiger or leopard, wearing an animal skin coat, glanced at each child with a sharp gaze, gave pointers from time to time, and nodded with satisfaction.

"When the sun rises, everything begins, and the vitality is at its most vigorous! Although it is not as good as swallowing the mist as the legend says, exercising in such a mist has great benefits and can replenish the vitality of the human body!
As Luo Shu said, a day's plan starts with the morning, and a year's plan starts with spring. Every morning is a good time to exercise your muscles and strengthen your body!
Only by cultivating an excellent physique and mastering some skills can you survive in this vast mountain range!" The middle-aged man warned the children with a serious face.

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!" A group of children responded loudly, full of anger.

There are many ferocious beasts in the mountains, and there are even prehistoric creatures that block out the sky and the sun. Their huge bodies are comparable to the mountains, they swallow the sky and howl at the moon, their giant wings cover the sky, and poisonous insects lurk. There are extremely terrifying crises everywhere.

"I understand!" A little kid who was obviously distracted and a beat slow shouted in a baby voice.

This is a very young child, probably only one or two years old. He has just learned to walk a few months ago and is also exercising his body.

Apparently he had come here on his own and mixed in with these older kids. He wasn't supposed to be in this team at his age.

"Hehehe! Use the nunchakus quickly..." The little guy made sounds while waving his tender little hands vigorously, imitating the movements of the older kids. However, because he was too young, his movements were crooked and his steps were unsteady.

Maybe even he didn't know what nunchakus were, but he still shouted out in a baby voice, with white milk stains on his lips, making everyone laugh.

The man under the scorched tree heard the voice, looked up, and also smiled at the little guy.

This was originally an ordinary Shi Village, with basically nothing special about it. Everyone in the village had the surname Shi, except for the scholar who had drifted into the village decades ago, who had a different surname.

I heard that the scholar in blue used to be from a family of scholars, but later gradually fell into decline, probably because in that era many people were rich in martial arts but poor in literature, and scholars were far inferior to martial artists.

The scholar in blue came to Shi Village more than ten years ago. At that time, he was very poor. It was said that he wanted to seek refuge with a distant relative. On the way, he encountered a ferocious beast in the vast mountains and was rescued by the old village chief and others.

The family of the scholar in blue had already passed away. In order to thank Shicun for saving his life, he stayed here to teach the children in the village to read.

Not to mention the surrounding area, there are so many people in the entire Cangshan Mountain Range who can read that almost everyone in Shi Village agrees with the blue-clothed scholar staying.

It’s better to make yourself suffer than to make your children suffer!
"Huh... ah, I'm tired!" The little one let out a long breath, sat down on the ground, and watched the older kids exercising with a disgruntled look on his face.

But after only a short while, he was distracted. He stood up and staggered towards the five-colored bird that was jumping in the distance. He stumbled and fell several times, but he didn't cry. Instead, he got up angrily and continued to chase.

The young man in blue watched this scene with a smile.

"Emperor Huang Tian... please don't slap me to death!"

"You and I have a deep connection..."

Luo Yan muttered to himself.

The figure in the long river of time instantly sent him to this era. After successfully passing the immortal calamity, he found the way back to the underworld and came to Shi Village.

Luo Yan had no choice. Looking at the entire ancient history, it was all evolved from the desolate world.

Maybe Emperor Huang Tian was watching him from some corner...

If you want to live longer, Shicun is a very good choice!

And Shicun is not simple either.

The willow tree beside him is a giant Immortal King, and the flying five-colored bird is the soul fragment of one of the Ten Evils, a loser who crossed the Sea of ​​Boundary.

Luo Yan looked as calm as an old dog on the surface, but he was actually very panicked.

I just want to survive the immortal tribulation, what have you done to me?

Thinking of this, Luo Yan said to Jiao Liushu beside him: "Old Liu, I am also forced to do this. If you have someone above you, remember to ask for mercy for me..."

The only green branch swayed in the wind.

"Okay, let's wrap up!" With a loud shout, all the children cheered, rubbed their sore hands and feet, and finally dispersed, each rushing home to prepare for dinner!
The old people smiled and stood up from the boulder. The sturdy adults scolded their children and walked quickly towards their homes carrying bone sticks and broadswords.

Luo Yan picked up the iron bowl appropriately, stood up from under the willow tree, and walked towards the village entrance consciously.

At the head of the village was the courtyard of the old village chief Shi Yunfeng, which was built of huge stones and next to a huge charred willow tree. Luo Yan only walked a few dozen steps before he saw the huge stove.

Life in Shi Village is similar to a big pot meal. Due to the shortage of food, children are basically given priority to eat to ensure nutrition and growth. Then adults are given priority to maintain a strong body to deal with external enemies and for hunting.

Finally, there are some elderly and frail people who don’t eat much and basically give the food to the children and the strong men in the village first.

When the old village chief saw Luo Yan coming with the bowl, he put down the work in his hands and handed it over to a few young people.

"Brother Luo Yan, the little one is almost two years old now. What do you think about his schooling..." Shi Yunfeng asked kindly, and began to worry about the little one's future. The little one is now one and a half years old, and the children in the deserted village have already developed spiritual intelligence.

Luo Yan's voice was gentle, like a spring breeze: "It's nothing, I only taught some common characters. Since the little one has the ability to think, then let's follow the old village chief's idea and teach him together."

Shi Yunfeng showed a gratified smile on his face: "Then I'll trouble you, little brother Luo Yan!"

Luo Yan said modestly: "It's no trouble, this is what I should do! I only know two big characters."

A strong man expressed a different opinion: "Alas, what you said is wrong, little brother Luo Yan. How many people dream of being able to read and write? Just look at us rough guys, how can we compare with little brother Luo Yan?"

This was true. Luo Yan was a standout in the entire Shi Village. His thighs were not as thick as the arms of the adults in the village. He looked frail, unable to lift or carry anything. He was just like a scholar in a storybook.

"It's time for the little one to drink milk!" A group of older children started to make a noise in front of the big pot, causing several elders in the village to laugh and scold: "You little naughty monkeys were all his age!"

"We weren't still breastfeeding when we were one and a half years old... hehe!"

Faced with the older children's teasing, the little one's bright black eyes narrowed into crescent shapes. He smiled innocently without caring, scooped up the milk with a wooden spoon and ate it sweetly.

Seeing that the little one was eating with great relish, the old village chief took the opportunity to say to him, "From today on, you will learn to read with Uncle Luo, so don't be too naughty!"

The little kid seemed to understand, but not quite. It seemed that in his impression, learning to read was a very distressing thing, because the older children always showed painful expressions when they went to school, especially when they were called out, they showed more resentment than when they were beaten.

"Can I not learn it?" the little guy asked weakly.

"No!" Shi Yunfeng said firmly.

The little guy showed a distressed expression, but soon became distracted.

After breakfast, several elderly people in the village came to Shi Yunfeng's yard together. Although their hair and beards were white, they were still full of energy. There were also several young and strong men staying in the yard.

"Brother Luo Yan, there have been big guys passing by late at night recently. Something must have happened deep in the mountains. The noise is too loud. You are weak, so don't run too far!"

"That's right! Brother Luo Yan, you must be careful. There may be ferocious beasts and giant insects passing by in the next two days. I was awakened by the fright last night, and my skin and bones are cold!"

Several old men spoke one after another, and they reminded Luo Yan one by one.

Luo Yan nodded to show that he understood.

After thinking for a while, the old clan leader Shi Yunfeng said, "I think it might be something incredible that may have appeared in the depths of the Great Wilderness. It has attracted the attention of the surrounding wild beasts and ancient species, and they have all rushed over! During this period, people who go hunting in the mountains must pay attention to safety, and evacuate immediately if they find any powerful species!"

Several young and strong adults nodded. They did have some experience, otherwise how could they survive in this mountain range full of ferocious beasts.

"Do you think it's possible that a mountain treasure has appeared?" An old man widened his eyes in shock.

When Luo Yan heard this, he realized that the mountain treasures they were talking about were the precious bones of some ferocious beasts. The patterns on them recorded the precious techniques contained in the ferocious beasts themselves. After learning them, one could become as powerful as the ferocious beasts.

Hearing the word "mountain treasure", many people showed strange colors and their eyes were extremely hot, but they just thought about it for a moment. That kind of treasure is far beyond their reach. At the very least, it was born in the depths of the mountains and no one can get in!

"Chief, we haven't been into the mountains for some time. We must go into the mountains in the next two days. The stored food is running out." A strong adult man walked into the yard. He was the leader of the hunting team and would be the next chief of Shi Village, Shi Linhu!
Shi Yunfeng frowned and said uneasily: "But things have been a little bit uneasy recently!"

"But there is really not much food left! The kids still need to grow and can't go hungry!" He was extremely tall, more than two meters tall, carrying a big sword weighing more than 300 kilograms on his back, and he was as strong as a human bear.

"This is indeed a big problem. We can't let the kids go hungry. This is the time when they are growing!" an old man agreed.

Shi Linhu said: "Although it was not peaceful at night, there was nothing unusual during the day. I should be fine if I bring some people with me and be careful."

"Brother Luo Yan, what do you think?" Shi Yunfeng asked with his eyes closed.

When his name was suddenly called, Luo Yan felt like he was back in class. He originally just wanted to listen quietly at the side.

"Ah? Me...me? I think what Brother Shi Linhu said is correct!" Luo Yan continued talking. He would not say much because Emperor Huang Tian was watching him!
The old patriarch Shi Yunfeng did not say much, but called a group of young men to gather at the entrance of the village, and came to the lightning-struck tree and prayed earnestly to the old willow tree.

"Spirit of sacrifice, please bless our people and let the children hunt juicy prey and return safely! We will worship and provide for you with a pious heart for generations to come."

The clan leader and the elders prayed earnestly, and all the young and middle-aged men also worshiped solemnly. Luo Yan was also praying, but what he prayed was different from that of the people in Shi Village.

"Lord Liu, you know me. I nourish you with my spiritual energy every day, so you must say more nice things to me!" Of course, Luo Yan knew that Lord Liu might not know what he was thinking. These words were purely spoken to Emperor Huang Tian, ​​who might be paying attention to Shi Village in the dark.

This is the era in which he evolved. No anomaly can escape his eyes. Luo Yan naturally cannot think that he has that ability.

In the world of Shading the Sky, he dared to call himself invincible, but here...

The fairyland is intact, with true immortals everywhere, immortal kings as numerous as dogs, and quasi-immortal emperors often appear...

Although it was a bit exaggerated, in Luo Yan's eyes that was pretty much what it meant.

Without the eternal protection of Emperor Huang Tian, ​​Luo Yan could not be so arrogant.

Not long after, the strongest group of people in the village, carrying huge bows and bone sticks, walked into the mountains and swamps, and soon disappeared at the entrance of Shi Village.

After watching the hunting team leave, Luo Yan first taught the children a few commonly used words as usual. As expected, the children showed painful expressions again. Learning was indeed a painful thing, even in Shi Village.

The little guy who was interested at first, after going through some torture, obviously began to show an expression of pain.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. An hour later, with Luo Yan saying "get out of class is over", the children suddenly became full of energy, no longer looking lifeless as before.

Shi Yunfeng sighed, obviously he knew these children were not cut out for it. After the children had rested for a long time, he led them to the grass at the entrance of the village, sat down cross-legged and began to teach them bone writing.

Luo Yan sat under the willow tree, transmitting a small amount of spiritual energy into the tree while reminiscing in his heart. In a blink of an eye, he had been here for hundreds of years.

Although it was a drop in the bucket compared to the time he had experienced before, in this terrifying era, Luo Yan felt that every day was a year. He didn't know for sure that one day he would be beaten to death by an Immortal King who suddenly appeared.

His strength is not weak. After passing the Heart Immortal Tribulation, he has reached the late stage of True Immortal. Although he has just entered the late stage, he is more than twice as strong as before.

"Pfft!"

While he was still reminiscing, the only branch of the lightning-struck willow tree behind him suddenly moved.
