Chapter 23: Imminent Danger
The power of the Life Stone was too soft and too small, it was not enough to fully activate the dead special bodies in Huang Quan's body, and only a small part of them could be slowly revived.
Of course, as the time spent under the light of the Life Stone increases, more special bodies will recover, but many will still be in a state of death or dormancy.
Of the countless special bodies in Huang Quan's body, only about half of them can be used now. But that doesn't mean he's half as good as he is.
Many powerful special abilities and secret methods require the use of a large number of special bodies in order to burst out with transcendent power. As long as a few or even one of these bodies are in a state of death, the power of the secret method will be greatly reduced, or even completely ineffective.
Huang Quan can only pick up some of the most basic martial arts skills according to his physical condition now. Those abilities that really allowed him to shock the major star fields were not needed now.
He looked at the Stone of Life and asked, "Where did this Stone of Life come from?" ”
The Great Elder glanced at Huangquan and said, "All the Life Stones originate from the Holy Land. From the Holy Land to the various shelters, the shelters will select the right people to form a settlement, and distribute the Life Stones to explore on their own. This stone of life has been handed down by our ancestors for a full hundred and fifty years. ”
"Holy Land?" Huang Quan thought about another new term and asked, "Have you been there?" ”
The Great Elder smiled bitterly, "How is that possible? Those of us who grew up in the rainforest are no longer qualified to enter the Holy Land, we belong to the polluted generation. And even if it wasn't polluted, we didn't know where the holy place was, only very, very far away, even farther than the farthest sanctuary. Even without disqualification, we would not have been able to reach the Holy Land. ”
"Very far away......
Huang Quan didn't know the very distant concept in the Great Elder's words. The civilization of the settlements is very primitive, and many precise disciplines have disappeared, after all, mathematics and astrophysics have nothing to do with hunting wild beasts.
If you look at the map of the Great Elder, you can see that there are concepts that cannot be learned from him.
Huang Quan temporarily put the questions about the Holy Land in his heart and continued to look at the Life Stone.
There is no doubt that this so-called holy place behind the settlement must have an exceptionally advanced civilization system, at least surpassing the empire in terms of the use of holy radiance.
In essence, the empire is still in the stage of passive use, and it can't control the Holy Radiance energy at all, and it can't even do the mother stone that divides the imperial capital.
And the holy land of this world has been able to make life stones containing the power of the Holy Radiance, and distribute them in batches.
Huang Quan had to admit that although the power of the Life Stone was soft, it was a remarkable technique that could be used by strong ordinary people without particularly obvious damage. The power of the true Holy Radiance was too violent, and only a heaven like Huangquan could withstand it.
"I'll go with you to the new camp, but in the new camp, give me a separate room next to the Life Stone."
The Great Elder's face changed: "Until now, I have completely believed that you are not a spy sent by the cannibals. ”
"Why?"
"A true cannibal would never want to approach the Stone of Life. When they see the Life Stone, they will only go crazy and want to smash it and destroy it, but you are ...... to the Life Stone Close, I've never seen anyone like that. ”
"Is it rare?"
"Yes, the process of receiving the power of the Life Stone is painful. If it weren't for the natural paladin, the pain would be unbearable, and it would be almost like being torn. ”
Huang Quan understands this. No matter how soft the stone of life is, the principle of human body transformation is the same, and it also needs to form a special structure in the body.
According to the results of Imperial research, the strength of this body is higher than that of spider silk, and the strength of the original tissue of the human body is unknown how many times, so the strength to withstand and explode can be dozens or even hundreds of times greater.
However, this body is formed very quickly, and it usually grows within a few days. In this process, the original tissues of the human body are torn apart, and new muscles are grown, which naturally does not taste good.
At this time, there was a faint bell outside, nine times, and the time to set off was up.
The Great Elder sighed and said, "This tree was planted by my own hands, and it is about to be moved before it grows. A long time ago, I had a dream that the tree of life I planted would grow into the largest tree in the rainforest. Alas, dreams are dreams after all. ”
Huang Quan did not speak.
The Great Elder took out the axe, slashed at the root of the small tree!
When there was a bang, sparks splashed everywhere. The axe bounced back, and there was only a shallow trail on the small tree.
The Great Elder cut more than a dozen axes in a row, and he was so tired that he was out of breath, so he cut down the small tree. He peeled off the branches and leaves, gathered away the trunk of the tree embedded in the Life Stone, and began to sprinkle oil on the room.
Huang Quan seemed to hear a faint cry in a trance, and his ears moved slightly, and he found that the sound was actually coming from the roots of the trees. The severed trunk seemed to be sobbing, but it was much weaker.
There are strange things about these trees, Huang Quan thought. In fact, something that can carry the power of the Life Stone, no matter what it is, even if it is just an inorganic stone, it must be extraordinary.
The Great Elder and Huang Quan left the room.
A young hunter greeted him, saluted the Great Elder, and sat down. The Great Elder stroked his head and said, "Don't leave anything for the cannibal, and come back alive." We are waiting for you in your new home. ”
The young hunter's face was a little pale, but there was still courage in his eyes, and he exclaimed, "I will go to your new homeland to find you." ”
He had a fire starter by his side, and by noon tomorrow he was going to light every fire in the settlement and reduce the whole camp to ashes.
He was the last person left behind in this settlement migration.
In the Great Elder's room, all the boxes had been moved. The people in the settlement gathered in the square, waiting for the Great Elder.
Some of them had significantly larger backpacks than others, and they were the burdenbearers of the settlement, mainly made up of elderly hunters and samurai. They are too old to take part in fierce battles, but they are still much more powerful than women.
"Let's go."
The Great Elder's voice was low, and there was no impassioned speech, no oath to death, as if he were talking about a trivial matter, rather than announcing the beginning of a death crusade.
One by one, hundreds of people left the camp and embarked on an unknown journey.
Samurai and experienced hunters have set out to rid their way of man-eaters and dangers in the rainforest.
And Huangquan and Yao, as the most high-end combat power in the settlement, enjoy privileges. This privilege is that you don't have to carry anything, just your own weapons. They have to preserve every ounce of their strength to deal with the danger that is coming.
Huang Quan and Yao walked side by side, his demeanor relaxed, and he talked to Yao from time to time.
"The point of this pose is to exert force at the waist, keep the body in a horizontal forward position, and at the same time tighten the elbows. Before you have mastered the power of the Life Stone, it is best to wrap your elbows in a thick piece of skin, otherwise your elbows will wear out in a few moments. ”
Haruka listened as if he understood or not, constantly posing, and was corrected by Huang Quan. But on the way to migration, she couldn't practice enough and mastered it slowly.
And Huang Quan didn't care so much, he poured all the power methods into her in one go, and she didn't care if she understood it or not, and she didn't need it.
Now that time is pressing, and cannibals may appear at any time, Huang Quan must hurry up and train her.
Haruka was indeed gifted in the use of the power of the Life Stone, and on the second day of training, a hazy glow erupted from her elbow.
Huang Quan reached out and touched it, it felt like he had pinched an invisible balloon, it was tough and elastic, and he couldn't pinch the body of his elbow without a little force.
"Very good." Huang Quan rarely gave her a positive evaluation.
Haruka rejoiced, and the light on his elbow vanished.
Huang Quan's face was blank and he shouted: "Keep practicing!" If you don't practice, you are not allowed to rest. ”
"But the team is gone."
"Catching up, they're going very slowly." With Huang Quan's ears, the settlers were far from being out of his vigilance.
Haruka grimaced and said softly, "Then you won't be able to eat dinner." ”
"You practice hard and finish these three hundred postures early, and you can still catch up with the meal."
Looking at Huang Quan's expressionless face, Haruka could only repeat those postures over and over again.
Although the training was hard, it was much better than looking at Huang Quan's face. He straightened his face, revealing an invisible killing intent, which could literally freeze people.
