The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries

The Old Clan Chief had a sense of propriety; he didn't probe into how Shi Jian conjured these Vicious Beasts. He simply hurried to call some of the adults in the village over.

When the villagers came to the square and saw the Vicious Beasts covering the ground, they were all stunned.

"Clan Chief? Where did these Vicious Beasts come from?" Some men excitedly stroked the fur of the Vicious Beasts, then asked Shi Yunfeng!

The Old Clan Chief didn't hide anything: "These were all hunted by Little Stone in the great mountains today. Don't ask too many questions. Quickly extract the Vicious Beast true blood, and prepare the great cauldrons and medicinal herbs!"

"When those little brats wake up tomorrow, they'll be in for a treat!"

Everyone looked at Shi Jian in surprise upon hearing this. They all knew that Shi Jian's Aptitude was outstanding, far superior to their own children. However, none of them had expected Shi Jian to be so powerful. Any one of the Vicious Beasts on the ground would be difficult for a dozen men from their village to take down.

"Little Stone is truly amazing. My mischievous son, who is the same age as Little Stone, is still playing with mud and urine..."

"How can your mischievous son compare to Little Stone? Little Stone trains in the square every day before dawn, waking up even earlier than the hunting party..."

Sounds of praise from the Stone Village people came from within the crowd. Shi Jian's diligence was well-known. With his effort and Aptitude, it was only natural for him to be outstanding. Shi Jian was considered the 'child of another's family' in Stone Village.

Listening to these praises, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Shi Jian's mouth. It sounds good, I love hearing it, say more!

The men of Stone Village quickly processed the Vicious Beast carcasses. Watching them handle the bodies, Shi Jian suddenly remembered the precious technique he had obtained from the Azure Flood Dragon. He then took out the original vicious bone he had taken from the Azure Flood Dragon. Various runes were inscribed on the vicious bone.

"Clan Chief, this is a precious bone I obtained from the Azure Flood Dragon when I hunted it. It records the Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique!"

"Keep it safe!" Shi Jian handed the vicious bone to the Old Clan Chief.

"Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique? Heaven bless our clan! With one more precious technique, the strength of our Stone Village will increase by several points!" The Old Clan Chief excitedly took the vicious bone. He had heard of the Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique; a large tribe had once dominated the great wilderness relying on this precious technique.

Now that Stone Village also possessed the Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique, the foundation of Stone Village had strengthened by several points. If they could comprehend this precious technique, it would be much more convenient for Stone Village to hunt Vicious Beasts or fight with others in the future.

"Child, your Aptitude is the highest. Take this precious bone first. It's not too late to give it back to me after you have comprehended the precious technique on it!" The Old Clan Chief returned the vicious bone to Shi Jian, hoping he would learn the Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique first.

"I've already learned it. You just keep it safe!" Shi Jian replied. This Azure Flood Dragon's precious technique was not profound; he had comprehended the bone script on it after reading it a few times.

Only after hearing him say this did the Old Clan Chief put away the vicious bone. With so many Vicious Beasts suddenly, and even an original vicious bone, the Old Clan Chief was almost ecstatic. He excitedly directed everyone to make all sorts of preparations. He was just waiting to give the little brats in the village a big surprise when they woke up tomorrow morning.

Shi Jian also helped out, and after everything was done, he originally wanted to return to his room to Cultivate, but the Old Clan Chief called out to him.

"Little Stone, I have nothing more to teach you with your current strength, but you can try to communicate with our Stone Village's Sacrificial Spirit!" The Old Clan Chief's gaze turned towards the thick, charred willow tree at the village entrance. Then he took out another bone.

"Decades ago, on a night of thunder and pouring rain, countless mountains were struck down by lightning. At that time, the Sacrificial Spirit of Stone Village, the willow tree, bathed in lightning, pierced through the entire sky and descended!"

"Along with its descent came this crystalline bone!"

When Shi Yunfeng mentioned these things, his face still showed a look of shock. He had witnessed the scene of the willow tree bathing in lightning and descending from the sky when he was young, and he still couldn't forget that scene.

He deeply knew that the Sacrificial Spirit of Stone Village, the willow tree, was extraordinary. For decades, he had been using this bone to worship the Sacrificial Spirit, trying to establish a connection with the old willow tree, but the old willow tree had never responded to him.

Shi Yunfeng estimated that his own Aptitude was too poor, and the old willow tree looked down on him. But Shi Jian was different. Perhaps he could make the old willow tree look at him with high regard.

After Shi Jian heard the Old Clan Chief's words, his heart stirred. Of course, he knew what this bone was. The legendary — Original True Understanding!

The complete Original True Understanding was almost equivalent to a Quasi-Immortal Emperor Scripture. It was a Cultivation Technique that pointed directly to the Dao.

However, the Cultivation conditions for the Original True Understanding were also very high. Only by reaching the extreme of Blood Refinement and tempering one's spiritual will to be harder than iron could one comprehend the Original True Understanding.

Although Shi Jian knew that the Original True Understanding was in the Old Clan Chief's hands before, he had not asked the Old Clan Chief for it. His Cultivation had not yet met the conditions for Cultivating the Original True Understanding, so it would be useless to take it. Moreover, asking for it suddenly would be too abrupt. So, the matter was put on hold.

Now, the Old Clan Chief directly handed the Original True Understanding to him. Shi Jian took the translucent white bone fragment.

The Old Clan Chief saw him take the precious bone and then instructed again: "When you comprehend this precious bone, you must be careful. The runes on it are too complex; ordinary people will vomit blood after just one glance. Don't stare at it for too long when you look, or you will hurt yourself!"

"Okay!" Shi Jian gently rubbed the precious bone in his hand, then solemnly replied.

The Old Clan Chief nodded, then said seriously: "Before comprehending this precious bone, it's best to first worship and inform the Sacrificial Spirit. Our Stone Village's Sacrificial Spirit is extraordinary. It has always silently guarded the village, and it doesn't respond to our usual sacrifices!"

"However, if it's you, perhaps the Sacrificial Spirit will respond!"

The Old Clan Chief said, then looked towards the dark willow stump at the village entrance again. Shi Jian followed his gaze, and a few points of solemnity grew in his heart.

The people of Stone Village didn't know the origin of this Sacrificial Spirit, but how could he not know? This was Willow Deity! An unrivaled Immortal King giant from the Immortal Ancient Era, known as the Ancestral Sacrificial Spirit, possessing battle power that shook the past and present. She played an indispensable role in Shi Hao's rise to become Heavenly Emperor Huang.

However, the current Willow Deity was severely injured, and most of her memories were lost. Facing such a Rank of existence, Shi Jian also felt a bit flustered.

However, he had not yet had any contact with Willow Deity since his Transmigration. Shi Jian's original plan was to lie low. Lie low until Heavenly Emperor Huang rises. Then he would directly copy everything and create a beggar's version of Heavenly Emperor Huang. With this thought, he had always acted discreetly. He also didn't dare to have too much involvement with Willow Deity.

However, now that there was a chat group, he could change his approach. This was also an opportunity to contact Willow Deity.

"I remember, Clan Chief!" Shi Jian put away the precious bone, then spoke solemnly.
