The Protagonists' Chat Group: Beyond the Boundaries

Chapter 53: Little Hao: When You Reach My Age, You’ll Understand.



Eighteen thousand jin of Divine Power from a child under four years old—what a Prodigy! Eight thousand jin of Divine Power was already considered the Blood Moving Realm, but after his baptism, Shi Hao immediately surpassed this Realm!

A group of people cheered and surrounded him, pinching and poking him! This was truly too shocking. Although Shi Jian was equally terrifying, he was the type to quietly achieve great things. The people of Stone Village had never been clear about his strength. However, Shi Hao had undergone his transformation step by step under everyone's witness. That was why everyone was so excited.

"Do you feel any discomfort?" The elders in the village asked Shi Hao, worried that he might have developed hidden problems during his transformation.

"I feel full of energy, with endless strength…" Shi Hao replied with a tender voice. Only then did the village elders and other villagers feel relieved. The people in the village were very simple, their emotions sincere, and whatever they thought was displayed on their faces. Although a bit rough, they gave off a warm feeling. Seeing Shi Hao grow up, everyone in the village was very happy.

After confirming that Shi Hao's strength improvement had no hidden dangers, the old village chief then sternly admonished the children of Stone Village: "You have successfully undergone the baptism, and your strength has surged, but remember not to be arrogant. You must know that there are many terrifying powerhouses in this world…"

"Little Hao is stronger than you, and Shi Jian is even stronger than you… You need to forge ahead vigorously, but also maintain a heart of reverence for the world!"

The other children in Stone Village also made terrifying progress. Having undergone multiple medicinal baths before, and now having been baptized with the Suan Ni, several children's Physical Body strength had also reached four to five thousand jin. This level was already enough to join Stone Village's hunting team. Their future prospects were limitless.

However, these children were a bunch of mischievous monkeys; with their improved strength, if they weren't disciplined, they might cause big trouble. That's why the old village chief wanted to warn them: "In ancient times, there were divine apes whose Physical Body strength alone reached one hundred and eight thousand jin, and Shi Jian once reached such a Realm!"

"Your achievements are not worth mentioning compared to Shi Jian. In the future, you must Cultivate even harder, understand?"

The group of children instantly petrified. They only had a few thousand jin of strength, while Shi Jian had already achieved one hundred and eight thousand jin. What an astonishing fact was this? Moreover, using runes and pure Physical Body strength were two different matters. The few children whose strength had improved relatively quickly instantly became obedient. Their raised tails immediately drooped. They couldn't even compare to Shi Hao, let alone Shi Jian. Seeing the mischievous monkeys become obedient, the old village chief revealed a smile.

"Little Hao, Stone Monkey, Dashan… When you go hunting in the forest from now on, you few should follow along. With your strength, you are enough to hunt giant beasts!" The old village chief called out a few names, allowing them to join the hunting team.

Needless to say, Shi Hao's eighteen thousand jin of Divine Power was enough to overpower giant beasts. The others basically also had four thousand jin of strength, already possessing combat power! Their future foundation had been laid; next, they should see some blood.

Only through the baptism of blood could they become true powerhouses. And they couldn't just keep disciplining them; too much discipline would only cultivate cowards. They also needed appropriate encouragement and recognition. Letting them join the hunting team was a form of recognition for them.

"Good, join the hunting team, hunt Vicious Beasts!" The children whose names were called were excited, their eyes filled with longing for the hunting team. In the villages of the Great Wilderness, the hunting team had always been a symbol of honor. Those who could join the hunting team would be revered by others. These children were naturally excited to hear that they could join the hunting team. Those who didn't join the hunting team secretly resolved in their hearts to Cultivate diligently and strive to be selected by the old village chief for the hunting team next time. The old village chief coaxed these children as if he were playing with monkeys.

After the baptism was completed, Stone Village suddenly became quiet. And Shi Jian was also preparing to leave Stone Village. However, before leaving Stone Village, he still had to make some preparations.

He obtained a refined Asura Puppet from Fang Han; that Asura Puppet possessed extremely terrifying power, equivalent to sixty or seventy fierce horses in physical strength! He then handed this Asura Puppet and its control method to the old village chief. Although Stone Village had Willow Deity, it wasn't like Willow Deity could handle every small problem, right? With this Asura Puppet, Stone Village also gained a bit more confidence.

In addition to the Asura Puppet, Shi Jian also obtained some Stone Talisman Spiritual Liquid from Lin Dong; this stuff not only had Cultivation functions but could also heal injuries… It was also a good item. Shi Jian filled a large jar for the old village chief.

Besides that, there was also the "Three Years of Runes, Five Years of Cultivation" that he had previously promised the old village chief. Shi Jian had already written a thick book. After his battle with the Suan Ni, his understanding of runes had deepened. Therefore, he "thickened" some content on the original basis. Thus, what he handed to the old village chief was the "thickened version" of "Three Years of Runes, Five Years of Cultivation."

The old village chief was moved to tears: "Little Hao, when you travel outside, you must be careful. If you're free, come back and visit. This will always be your home!" The old village chief spoke solemnly to Shi Jian, and Shi Jian nodded. He would definitely come back often. After all, Willow Deity was still here.

"Child, be careful on your journey, and be sure to protect yourself…"

"If you suffer any grievances outside, just come back. If we can't help you, Willow Deity can!"

All the clansmen came to bid farewell to Shi Jian, from the village elders in their seventies to babies still nursing; a crowd of people came to see Shi Jian off. They repeatedly urged Shi Jian to be careful. Shi Jian nodded in response to each one.

Shi Hao was even more reluctant, hugging Shi Jian's thigh. He was the closest to Shi Jian. When he still needed care, he lived in the old village chief's house. After he got a bit older, he lived with Shi Jian. Now that Shi Jian was leaving, Shi Hao was naturally reluctant.

"I want to go out and train with Big Brother Shi…" Shi Hao shouted.

"Your strength is too weak. Come find me when you're stronger…" Shi Jian smiled and patted Shi Hao's head, but Shi Hao still hugged him tightly, refusing to let go.

"You're the only one who learned the runes I taught. You still have to teach those mischievous monkeys. If you leave with me, who will teach them?" Shi Jian continued to persuade him.

Shi Hao remained silent, only hugging Shi Jian tightly. Feeling this little guy's dependence on him, Shi Jian, in desperation, had to use his ultimate move: "If you follow me, you won't have beast milk to drink!"

Shi Hao's eyes instantly widened, and the strength in his grip began to loosen. Though he was small, he was sensible. He knew Shi Jian couldn't take him when he went out, but he was too reluctant to part with Shi Jian. That's why he had been holding onto him, unwilling to let go.

Now, Shi Jian's words shattered the last line of defense in his heart. If he followed Big Brother Shi and couldn't drink beast milk, he would have to reconsider. At his age, beast milk was paramount.

Seeing Shi Hao loosen his grip, the originally sad and parting crowd in Stone Village suddenly burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, Little Hao, when you heard you couldn't drink beast milk, you didn't want to go with Shi Jian, right?"

"Are you staying in Stone Village just to drink beast milk…"

Everyone teased Shi Hao, but Shi Hao didn't get angry listening to their voices.

"When you reach my age, you'll understand!!!"
