Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 106 Ancient God's Blood and True Law

The team that had gone out to train in Shi Village was quickly returning to the village. The group of teenagers in the team kept staring at the mysterious outsider walking with Uncle Zhu.

"Skinny Monkey, who do you think is stronger, that guy or Uncle Pillar?"

One of the boys quietly asked a slightly older companion beside him.

The man called "Skinny Monkey," who was actually not skinny at all but as strong as a small mountain, kept glancing at his Uncle Zhu and the outsider before finally sighing as if he understood.

"I think Uncle Zhu definitely can't beat them. Didn't you see Uncle Zhu keeping smiling at them?"

"What's wrong with laughing?"

The boy asked in confusion.

The skinny boy glanced at him and snorted:

"Uncle Zhu only smiles like that when he sees the clan elders, which means he's chickened out."

"Mr. Meteor, please excuse my rambling. These are just a few kids talking nonsense without any sense of prophecy."

At the front of the line, the middle-aged man, with a dark expression, gave Zhou Yang an awkward smile.

Zhou Yang, using the pseudonym "Meteor," smiled and shook his head.

"It's alright, that's just how a young person should be."

"Mr. Meteor is right."

The middle-aged man, Shizhu, smiled and agreed.

His expression shifted, as if he was struggling with something.

After a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind and cautiously spoke to Zhou Yang:

"Mr. Meteor, you are a powerful cultivator and must have come into contact with many cultivation sects. I wonder if I could ask you for a favor?"

"Of course, we're not asking you to help for nothing. Our village will prepare a generous gift in gratitude for you."

"Oh?"

Zhou Yang looked at him but didn't agree to anything. Instead, he asked curiously, "Tell me first, what kind of help do you want me to give?"

Seeing that he didn't refuse outright, the middle-aged man's apprehension subsided slightly, and he continued:

"I just heard Mr. Meteor mention that he's going to Luoshui City. I wonder if you could help me by bringing someone there?"

"Bringing people? Is it that boy named Shi Dong?"

Zhou Yang's mental energy constantly surrounded him, and he had long since noticed that the middle-aged man paid special attention to a boy in the group.

"Mr. Meteor has keen insight; it's that child."

The middle-aged man nodded and sighed:

"Xiao Dong was the only person in the village to awaken using the complete 'Ancient God Blood,' he should have shone brightly, it's just a pity."

The middle-aged man continued to sigh as he spoke, but Zhou Yang was no longer listening to what he was about to say.

He astutely caught a key word in the other person's words—'Ancient God Blood'!

This is exactly what he is looking for during this cultivation mission!

"Awakening of the Blood of the Ancient Gods"

Zhou Yang murmured to himself, but his face remained expressionless.

"Brother Shi just said that Xiao Dong was supposed to shine, but what happened later? Did something go wrong?"

He asked casually.

"It's a pity, really."

The middle-aged man, Shi Zhu, sighed again before beginning to explain:

"Xiao Dong's father is the most talented person in our generation. Although he awakened with a 'fragment of divine blood,' he awakened an extremely rare 'brain treasure,' which makes him qualified to become a spirit tamer."

"He was thus noticed by a master in Luoshui City and successfully joined a cultivation sect in Luoshui City."

"Later, when Xiao Dong was born, his father spent a lot of his savings to exchange for a chance for him to fully awaken his divine bloodline."

"We originally planned to bring Xiao Dong into the sect for training after his awakening was complete, but who knew..."

He shook his head repeatedly as he spoke, sighing:

"Who knew that after that incident, there was no news of his father. It has been almost ten years now. I heard that the sects in Luoshui City are constantly fighting and killing each other. I'm afraid..."

He didn't continue, but Zhou Yang already understood what he meant.

But he was also a little curious.

"Since Luoshui City is so dangerous, why do you still want me to take him there?"

"It is for the purpose of practicing the true Dharma."

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "Xiao Dong has awakened his complete divine bloodline. He must cultivate the true method to unleash the full power of his divine bloodline. And this true method is only passed down by the major sects in Luoshui City."

"It's just that Luoshui City is far away and the road is fraught with danger. There are only a limited number of Star-level Awakened in the village, and we also have to be on guard against attacks from savage beasts at all times. It's really impossible to risk traveling for a child."

He looked at Zhou Yang with a somewhat uneasy gaze.

"I overheard you mentioning that you were heading to the nearest city, which is why I took the liberty of asking for your help."

"The true method... and that ancient god's blood, it actually has a distinction between 'complete divine blood' and 'residual blood'."

As he listened to his narration, Zhou Yang's interest was piqued.

This sounds like a cultivation system unique to this world.

Based on Luo Feng's experience with the Blood Luo World mission and his own mission requirements, perhaps the true secret of this world is hidden in this so-called "Ancient God Blood".

He was in a great mood after learning about the information related to the mission.

After a moment's thought, he nodded in agreement.

"I can take him with me, but to be honest, I don't know anyone in Luoshui City. I can only take him there; I'm afraid I can't help him with anything else."

The reason he agreed to the middle-aged man's request was mainly to better conceal his whereabouts.

As an outsider, one's words and actions inevitably differ slightly from those of the local inhabitants, and acting alone is likely to attract attention.

Having a controllable "local" nearby as cover would greatly reduce the risk of exposure.

"Thank you, Mr. Meteor. That's good. The rest is up to the child's fate!"

Upon hearing Zhou Yang's definite answer, the middle-aged man was extremely excited and repeatedly bowed in gratitude.

Zhou Yang followed the team as they walked out of the mountains and forests.

Even the weakest of these teenagers possessed the strength of the first stage of awakening (Planetary Level 1), making them extremely fast travelers.

In about an hour, they were completely out of that dense ancient forest.

A small village nestled against the mountain came into their view.

Zhou Yang declined the middle-aged man's offer to stay and entertain him, but took a detailed map of the area surrounding Luoshui City from him.

He then left without lingering, using his mental energy to envelop the boy named Shi Dong and instantly soaring into the sky.

The middle-aged man watched his departing figure, a look of relief appearing on his face.

"As expected, he's a Silver Moon level cultivator. Sigh, I hope Xiao Dong can successfully join a sect on this trip."

Luoshui City in the Great Yu Kingdom is an ancient city in the world of "Ruins Ancient Temple".

As the center within a radius of tens of millions of kilometers, the city of Luoshui alone has a city wall that is 300 meters high and stretches for a long time, with no end in sight.

At the city gate of Luoshui City, a group of fierce soldiers in scale armor guarded the gate and collected "tribute money" from passers-by.

A black-haired young man dressed in animal skin clothing and carrying a dark spear walked forward with a slightly thin boy.

After handing a purple, round coin with a square hole to the soldiers at the city gate, the two entered the ancient city gate of Luoshui City with great ease.

I apologize, everyone. Judging from the subscriptions, the recent plot has been too bland. I bow in apology and will finish it as soon as possible. If you find it boring, you can skip the following chapters.
