The rich and mellow monkey wine was passed around in large bowls, eliciting bursts of laughter and cheers.
The villagers sang and danced around the bonfire, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere.
Shi Hao sat by the campfire, with Huo Ling'er's pretty face flushed beside him. Looking at the warm and lively scene before him, he felt a sense of satisfaction and peace.
Just as the joyous atmosphere reached its climax, and the sun was about to completely sink behind the western mountains...
suddenly!
From the direction of the village entrance, a very slight yet incredibly clear spatial fluctuation came!
"Ok?"
Shi Hao frowned slightly, sensing it immediately!
Immediately afterwards! The hundreds of emerald green branches of the Willow God swayed gently, as if warning something!
Swish!Swish!
Two figures appeared silently outside the entrance of Stone Village, like ghosts!
That's... an old man and a young man!
The old man had white hair and beard, a dignified face, and wore a purple robe symbolizing the noble status of the Celestial Race. His eyes were like the stars and the sea, unfathomable!
It was Yun Xi's grandfather, the old Venerable of the Celestial Race—Yun Canghai!
The younger one was dressed in a purple robe as white as snow, with an ethereal and otherworldly temperament and an unparalleled beauty, like a fairy from the moon palace descending to earth. She was none other than Yun Xi, the goddess of the Celestial Race who had parted ways with Shi Hao not long ago!
They actually came?! And they even went straight to Stone Village?!
Shi Hao looked at the two figures, and especially when he saw the crescent-shaped jade pendant in Yun Xi's hand that was emitting a faint purple halo, echoing the one in his own arms, he instantly understood!
The Spirit Pendant!
They actually tracked themselves all the way here using the connection between the spirit pendants?!
This secret treasure of the human race is indeed unique!
Just as Shi Hao was feeling surprised.
Yunxi and Yun Canghai, standing at the village entrance, were completely stunned as they looked at the seemingly ordinary little mountain village before them!
Especially Yun Canghai!
This Celestial Race powerhouse, who has lived for many years, is knowledgeable and experienced, and has long since entered the Venerable Realm!
The moment his divine sense cautiously swept over the village!
His usually placid old face was instantly filled with disbelief, horror, and deep fear!
What did he see? !
The willow tree at the village entrance looks unremarkable, even somewhat charred...
In his divine perception, it was not a willow tree at all!
That was something... indescribable! It seemed older than the entire universe! A supreme being more vast than all the stars in the heavens!
He quietly took root there, as if he were the center of all the heavens and the myriad worlds! He was the source of the great Dao of the universe!
The mere wisp of aura emanating from that person made this Venerable Realm cultivator feel as insignificant as an ant! It was as if the other party could wipe him and the entire Celestial Race from the world with a single thought!
A forbidden existence! It is absolutely a forbidden existence that has long since vanished and only exists in the oldest myths!
and also!
The villagers in the village who seemed simple and honest...
Their bodies actually contained extremely vigorous blood and qi power!
Many young adults, and even some women, possessed such strong blood and qi that they were faintly approaching the late stage or even the peak of the Blood Transformation Realm!
In the village square, that giant blue eagle was leisurely strolling... It was clearly a different species with the bloodline of the Heavenly Roc! Its strength had probably already surpassed that of a king or noble! It had almost reached the threshold of a Venerable?
And that golden monkey fighting a featherless monster bird… that aura! That mark between its brows! Could it be… the legendary ancient ferocious beast, Zhu Yan?!
A monster! A demon!
This is hardly some remote and backward little mountain village!
This is clearly a den of dragons and tigers hidden in the mundane world!
A terrifying forbidden area that would deter even the most powerful beings, including those at the Divine Fire Realm!
"Pfft!"
Yun Canghai felt his legs go weak and he almost collapsed to his knees!
He looked at his granddaughter Yunxi, who was equally stunned by the scene before her, his voice trembling, "Xi...Xi'er...we...we seem to have...come to the wrong place..."
After a brief moment of shock, Yunxi's gaze involuntarily fell upon the campfire.
When they saw that familiar figure being affectionately fed roasted meat by Huo Ling'er, with a mischievous smile on her face.
A complex emotion instantly welled up in her beautiful, amethyst-like eyes...
There was resentment, unwillingness, anger, and a trace of... bitterness that even she herself was unwilling to admit?
Shi Hao naturally saw Yun Xi and her grandfather's arrival, as well as the wonderful expressions on their faces, and was somewhat surprised.
Unexpectedly, they actually came knocking on our door? And with that Spirit Rhinoceros Pendant no less?
Looks like things are getting interesting!
Sitting next to him, Huo Ling'er followed his gaze and saw the familiar yet unpleasant purple figure at the village entrance.
Her large, fiery eyes narrowed instantly, and like a kitten guarding its food, she reached out her small hand and once again... fiercely pinched the soft flesh on Shi Hao's waist!
"hiss--!"
Shi Hao gasped in pain, knowing without looking who had pinched him.
Got it!
This is just great!
The two fat women, are they going to start fighting?
But why did Yunxi and the others come looking for us?
Could it be because of the divine arm guards he stole from Yunxi at Baiduan Mountain?
At this moment, Shi Hao recalled the relevant plot of the original work.
This divine arm guard seems quite important to the Celestial Race?
Chapter 92: Willow God's Surprise, Yunxi Was Also Carried Back to the Village!
At the entrance of Shicun Village, the afterglow of the setting sun bathed the entire land in a warm golden hue.
However, for Yunxi and her grandfather Yun Canghai, who had just arrived here...
Their feelings, however, were the complete opposite of this heartwarming scene; they were filled only with a chilling shock and an incredulous horror.
The scene before me was simply too...unbelievable!
There was no sacred and vast ancestral land atmosphere as imagined, no ancient palaces towering into the clouds, and no pervasive chaotic aura or divine pressure.
What came into view was just a small, even somewhat rudimentary, mountain village nestled in a corner of the wilderness.
If it weren't for the strange willow tree at the village entrance, which was completely charred black yet exuded vitality and a faint holy aura, and the incredibly rich spiritual energy and medicinal fragrance that permeated the village, they would almost think they had come to the wrong place!
"This...this is...Stone Village? The first ancestral land of the Stone Kingdom?" Yunxi's beautiful amethyst eyes widened as she stared at the scene before her, which was so different from what she had imagined, and she was momentarily lost in thought.
Meanwhile, Yun Canghai, the giant of the Celestial Race who came from the Ancient Divine Mountain, was knowledgeable and had already entered the Venerable Realm for many years, was now as if he had been frozen in place, his whole body stiff, his face filled with unprecedented horror and fear!
The moment he stepped into this area, his divine sense instinctively swept towards the most conspicuous charred black willow tree!
However, it was only for the instant that divine sense touched that willow tree!
boom! ! !
An indescribable, boundless, and terrifying will, seemingly superior to all the heavens and myriad paths, rebounded directly back like the awakening of a cosmic ruler who had been dormant for billions of years, carrying an indescribable majesty!
"puff!"
Yun Canghai felt as if his soul had been struck by an invisible giant hammer. His mind was in excruciating pain, his vision went black, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot!
He quickly withdrew his divine sense, his face turned ashen, and his gaze toward the willow tree was filled with endless awe and fear!
what is that? !
That was definitely no ordinary sacrificial spirit!
That aura...that will...
Ancient! Vast! Sacred! Unfathomable!
It was many times more terrifying than the ancient ancestor who slept on the Heavenly God Mountain that he had seen!
This is absolutely a living, forbidden being!!!
Thinking of this, Yun Canghai felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to the top of his head! His back was instantly soaked with cold sweat!
All his previous contempt for Shi Hao, all his scheming, and even the resentment he felt because his arm guards were stolen, vanished at this moment!
joke!
With such an unimaginably terrifying being in charge, let alone a mere Venerable One, even a true god would have to think twice before descending!
No wonder! No wonder that little monster is so monstrous! No wonder he dared to be so unscrupulous!
It turns out that behind him stood such an all-powerful and supreme being!
At this moment, Yun Canghai had only one thought in his mind—keep a low profile! He must keep a low profile! He absolutely could not anger this being, otherwise, the entire Celestial Race would probably suffer as a result!
Just as Yun Canghai was deeply shaken and trying to calm his almost collapsing state of mind, the village's bonfire party was also slightly interrupted by their arrival.
"Huh? Why are there two people at the village entrance?"
"They don't look like people from our Great Wilderness."
"That little girl is so beautiful! She looks like she stepped out of a painting!"
The villagers peered curiously towards the village entrance, their gazes soon settling on Yunxi, who possessed an ethereal air and stunning beauty.
Immediately, some of the bolder kids, like Mi Hou, started yelling at Shi Hao:
