After Yu Lingzhu and I approached the herdsmen, we saw an old man coming out of the crowd and said, "I wonder where you two want to ask where you are going?"

I pointed in the direction ahead and said, "Hello old man, we want to go to the Arctic Snow Mountain, I don't know which direction to go, right?"

The old man said: "The direction is basically correct, but you still need to deviate a little to the west, otherwise you will have to walk for more than ten days." ”

I took out a lot of food from the spatial ring and said to the old man, "Thank you so much, old man. If you don't dislike it, I have some food rights here to repay. "I did this because when I got closer, I saw that the herders were all hungry.

The old man was obviously a little moved when he saw the food in front of him, but he said with some embarrassment: "How can this be done? ”

I saw that the old man was still wary of us, so I said to the old man, "Old man, I don't know if you have heard of the Kunlun faction?"

The old man asked a little puzzled, "Isn't that a place where a group of immortals cultivate?"

I smiled and said, "Hehe, how can there be immortals in the Kunlun Sect, there is no cultivation of immortals in this world for a long time now." ”

The old man said with some displeasure: "You kid is young, how can you talk about things you don't know?"

When Yu Lingzhu heard the old man's words, he lowered his head and chuckled. I turned my head to look at Yu Lingzhu and said, "Hey, don't laugh at it, you can also say a few words." ”

Yu Lingzhu smiled and said softly, "Yes, Uncle You." Then he slowly walked up to the old man and said, "Grandpa, what he said is the truth, there are indeed no more people who have cultivated to become immortals now. "In the end, it is a beautiful woman with a scholarly temperament, when Yu Lingzhu approached the herdsmen, these herdsmen were not nervous at all.

The old man still said with some disbelief: "How can it be? I have heard since I was a child that there are immortals living in Kunlun Mountain, and there is also an immortal called Guantian Daoren who has saved the people of the world." ”

I said to the old man: "The one you are talking about is not an immortal, I thought at first that the old man of the Heavenly Daoist was an immortal, but he himself said that he was not. Of course, even though he is not an immortal, he is also very powerful. The Heavenly Daoist is almost 190 years old this year. ”

The old man exclaimed, "One hundred and ninety years old! That's not a fairy!"

I smiled and said, "Hehe, okay, you always say that he is, I also hope that the old man of the Heavenly Daoist can cultivate into an immortal." ”

The old man suddenly asked, "No, young man." How do you know these things?"

Yu Lingzhu laughed even more when she heard this, and she quickly covered her mouth with her hand and turned around. I saw Yu Lingzhu's appearance and walked behind her speechlessly, tapped her shoulder with my finger and said, "Miss Lingzhu, can you explain it to this old man first and then laugh?"

Yu Lingzhu controlled his emotions for a moment, turned around and pursed his lips to look at me slightly, and said to the old man: "Old man, this young man in front of you is the disciple of the Heavenly Daoist you said, and he is from the Kunlun faction, so he knows about the Kunlun faction." ”

The old man said in a panic: "Ah?!! how is it possible? He looks so young, could it be that he is also an immortal?"

I sighed and said, "Uncle, I'm not a fairy, I told you for a long time just to hope that you believe that we are good people." ”

Nie Qi and the others saw that I had been talking to Yu Lingzhu for so long, and they also walked over with the Wind Chasing Beast, and Nie Qi asked me, "Uncle You, what's wrong?"

I looked back at Nie Qi and said, "No, this old man has already shown me the way." I just want to ask them a little bit more about it, and I want them to know now that we're good people. ”

Nie Qi said with some conceit: "It's just a group of ordinary herdsmen, just give them some food and gold and silver as a reward." We still have important things to do, so let's not waste time on them. ”

I said with some displeasure: "I just want to know what is wrong with them, the grassland people have always been open-minded and fierce. Look at these people in front of you, if it weren't for the catastrophe, would it be like this?!"

When the old man heard my words, he said to me, "This young man, whether you are a disciple of the immortals or not, based on what you just said, we believe that you are a good person. ”

I heard the old man's words, and quickly distributed the food taken out of my spatial ring to these herdsmen. Then I asked the old man, "Can you tell me what is wrong with you?"

The old man sighed deeply and said, "Young man, even if I tell you, you can't control it, our Mengjia tribe has encountered the devil... ”

"What kind of devil??what have they done to you?" I asked.

The old man said, "Alas... This group of demons is too strong, they suddenly attacked our tribe, and all the beast soul warriors of our tribe fought with their lives to let this person escape... ”

"Beast Soul Warrior??What is Beast Soul Warrior?"...

Through the old man's story, I learned that the grassland people had their own unique methods to enhance their own strength. The children of the steppe ethnic group are martial and receive systematic training from the age of two or three, and whenever a child in the tribe reaches adulthood, the whole tribe will hold a coming-of-age ceremony for them. The so-called coming-of-age ceremony is actually a test, and only a rare and outstanding teenager can pass the test.

Teenagers who pass the test will be provided with a short knife and some food, and then they will be sent out to face an even more severe test. The length of this test varies from person to person, and can range from months to years. Of course, more of them lost their lives.

There is only one test for these teenagers, and that is to go to the depths of the grassland to find a powerful beast with a little aura in its body, and it is better if it is a spirit beast or an evil beast. They need to engage in a one-on-one life-and-death struggle with the beasts they have found, and the victorious boy eats all the beasts he kills with his own hands.

Finally, the boys will bring the heart of the beast back to the tribe, and the high priest of the tribe will inject the soul of the beast into the body of the boy through a totem pole unique to the steppe people, and then the boy will have more power than the beast that was killed. From then on, these people with the power of beast souls can strengthen themselves by constantly eating the hearts of beasts.

This is what the old man called the Beast Soul Warrior. The Beast Soul Warrior has the highest status among the grassland peoples and is respected by all herdsmen, and the natural responsibility of every Beast Soul Warrior is to protect his tribe with his life.
