The tall willow tree, towering to the sky, and the huge canopy, against the scorching sun, cast a huge shadow on the open space in front of the village. More than a dozen young boys and girls, sitting cross-legged in the shade of the tree with their eyes closed, breathing, their bodies glowing faintly, and two or three sturdy middle-aged men around them stepped forward from time to time to give guidance.

About two hours later, more than a dozen boys and girls opened their eyes, stood up, stretched their waists, moved their muscles, and had simple smiles on their faces. "My spiritual power is a little stronger, hehe!" a chubby teenager said happily, "I'm about to break through to the phantom realm, haha" The slightly sturdy, carbon-complexion teenager said proudly, seeing that his age is the oldest among these teenagers, but he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, "Wow, Brother Little Tiger, you are so powerful!", "Yes, Brother Little Tiger is mighty!", more than a dozen teenagers exclaimed loudly, "Haha, you also have to hurry up and cultivate, don't be too far behind me, haha", "Hmph!" , Brother Little Tiger, you are less proud, Brother Yucheng has already reached the late stage of the Phantom Realm, you are far behind!" a very cute little girl who was twelve or thirteen years old pouted and said, with a look of disdain.

When everyone heard the name Yucheng, they all shook their heads and smiled bitterly, but they were a little excited and proud, "Yes, that stinky boy is simply a demon!" Everyone laughed and scolded, although they were envious but not jealous, "Brother Yucheng is not comparable to you, hum!", when it came to the little girl in Yucheng, her face was full of admiration.

"Hmm, you little girl, why are you so biased towards Ye Yucheng? Could it be that you like him?" Hahaha!" Brother Little Tiger said jokingly, "You, you are talking nonsense, I'll tell Uncle Tiger, spank you, hum!" The little girl pouted and said with a flushed face, "You stinky girl, why are you still shy, hahaha!", "No, no!" The little girl said while covering her face and running towards the village, the teenagers laughed when they saw the little girl like this, and the middle-aged man standing on the side couldn't help laughing.

"It's going to be the Tianling Academy selection competition in a month, I don't know if this rabbit cub in Yucheng can be selected!", a middle-aged man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist said with his eyes shining, "This kid in Yucheng is quite talented, and we haven't had such a good seedling in Yecun for many years! I really hope that Yucheng can regain the reputation of the first village in our Lingxiu Country!", the middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and tiger eyes said, "Hey! There are eighty villages in Lingxiu Country, and there are demonic geniuses every year, and it is not easy to regain the reputation of the first village!" I think that our Ye Zu covered the sky with one hand, and he was extremely powerful, not to mention that this Lingxiu Country was also the strongest among all nations, but unfortunately he was seriously injured by the plot of Mu Zu of that Mu Country, and finally fell here, and now it is our generation, hey, but this kid in Yucheng is not simple! Being able to win the first place in the Ten Villages Competition makes me have more high hopes for him. An old man with gray hair and fluctuating spiritual power said, "Village Chief!" The two middle-aged men said together, and the village chief waved his hand, "What about Yucheng?" "With Ye Long and Ye Leopard, they went out to hunt in the mountains, but they should also come back at this hour every day, hey! I saw five or six majestic and majestic strong men wearing animal skins, carrying fierce beasts comparable to a hill towards the village, the village chief stepped forward to greet them, and the two middle-aged men took the hunting team's prey, and said a few words with the hunting team, "What about Yucheng?" the village chief asked, the hunting team looked at each other, and then looked behind him, " Yucheng went to hunt down a silver-horned rhinoceros, he told us to come back first, and he quickly followed, and that silver-horned rhinoceros was also in the early stage of the Phantom Spirit Realm, and it was not Yucheng's opponent at all, so we didn't stop him. Ye Long, the leader, said, "Hehe, this kid is getting bolder and bolder, okay, let's go back, rest well, I'm waiting for him here" The village chief shook his head but smiled with relief. Everyone sang loudly with their prey on their shoulders and happily returned to the village.

The fiery sunset put away the last rays of light. The bright moon rose slowly, sprinkled the vast earth with a silver white, under the thick willow tree, the silver-haired old man looked pale, his face was dignified, the two sparse white eyebrows were tightly locked together at this time, and the slightly dry pupils looked into the distance, looking very anxious. "Village Chief, Village Chief, hasn't Yucheng come back yet?" Ye Long, Ye Bao and more than a dozen other people asked nervously one after another, the village chief did not speak, and nodded slowly, "Everyone bring weapons, let's go into the mountains to find it together!" Ye Long said in a loud voice, "No! It's too dangerous in the mountains at night!" The village chief shouted, "Although Yucheng is not of my race, he has been entrusted by people to live with us since childhood, and we have long regarded him as our child, and now that he is in danger, we can't sit idly by." Ye Bao shouted in a rough voice, "Do you want to kill all the clansmen" The village chief said angrily, Ye Bao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, sighed deeply, and everyone was silent for a while. They all know that it is not that the village chief is ruthless, Yucheng has lived with the village chief since childhood, and the two of them have the deepest feelings in the village, just like the two fathers, but the fierce beasts are out at night, and there is no shortage of spiritual beasts with strong spiritual power, and with their strength into the mountain, not only can not save Yucheng, but it is also difficult to save their lives, the village chief focuses on the overall situation, rationally suppresses sensibility, and is not reckless, although the village chief does not say it, but everyone can feel the pain in the heart of the village chief. "Ye Long, Ye Hu, you two are the strongest, bring the ancestral weapon and follow me into the mountain, and the rest of the people will wait to return to the village!" The village chief's tone was unquestionable, and the others were silent, sighing and walking towards the village! Some people beat their chests and stomped their feet to complain that they were not strong enough to save Yucheng. The village chief stopped talking nonsense and led Ye Long and Ye Hu to rush towards the vast mountains

"Village Chief, this is where we hunt during the day, and Rain City is chasing the silverhorned rhinoceros in that direction. Ye Long said with his finger as he spoke, "Go", the village chief shouted, and the three of them followed the traces left by Yucheng and the silver-horned rhinoceros all the way, and suddenly the three of them stopped, and a cold current poured into the bodies of the three people, making the bodies of the three of them tremble, "Be careful" The village chief shouted, and the three of them burst out with strong spiritual power and stared ahead vigilantly, a huge spirit beast exuded a terrifying murderous aura, slowly forcing towards the three of them, and every time they landed on the ground, a deep pit would appear, and the towering and thick giant trees around them were all trembling, shaking the mountain! "Retreat!" The village chief shouted, the three of them urged the spiritual power to turn around and flee, the mountain shook like a roar, the mountain shook the ground, the void exploded, and then threw out a hundred-foot nose, with a whirring sound of breaking the wind fiercely pumped towards the village chief and the three, where the elephant trunk swept, it was instantly razed to the ground, so powerful even the strong people in the later stage of the true spirit realm were difficult to resist, the three of them suddenly felt a cold air rushing to their backs, making the three of them tremble, and then turned around and desperately urged the spiritual power to resist this terrifying blow, bang! The ferocious elephant trunk collided violently with the spiritual power of the village chief and then exploded, the elephant trunk shook violently and retracted, and the three of them turned around and fled without hesitation. Although this blow was ferocious, the combined strength of the three of them was comparable to that of the Spirit God Realm, and the three of them were not injured, but they were also frightened. The earthquake mountain elephant is the king of beasts, the power is incomparable, ** hard as iron, only the blow just now can feel the power of the earthquake mountain elephant, I am afraid that the strength has reached the late stage of the spirit god realm, and one step forward can be reborn and evolve into a divine beast! It can be seen that the earthquake mountain elephant does not have much killing intent, otherwise the three village chiefs will be difficult to escape.

"Although the power of the ancestral weapon is huge, but I have not yet been able to exert the greater power of the ancestral weapon, the beasts are rampant at night, extremely ferocious, we can't compete with it with our strength, no, we can't take any more risks, for so long, I'm afraid Yucheng will also return to the village!" The village chief said decisively, Ye Long and Ye Hu are the main forces of the village, he can't let them follow him on the adventure anymore, the village chief wants to go to Yucheng alone, presumably the two will not agree, in desperation, the village chief decisively withdrew, this is the best choice at present, so the three of them urged their spiritual power to speed up and run back to the village.

"Village Chief, you haven't eaten for three days and three nights, so let's eat some. Ye Long and the others persuaded, "I can't eat it!" The village chief's face was haggard, looking even older, tears were in his dry eyes, and his voice was trembling slightly, "We've been looking for three days, haven't we seen Yucheng's corpse yet? Ye Hu choked up and persuaded, "Yes! Yes!" Everyone echoed, although Ye Hu said so, but his heart was empty. "No! No, Brother Yucheng is the most powerful, he won't die!" The little girl cried and shouted, her delicate little face was full of tears, and she was flushed, and the village chief heard that a flash of light flashed in her eyes, but then it dimmed again, "Even if you don't see Yucheng's corpse, but Yucheng's hope of survival is very slim, everyone knows the danger in the mountains, not to mention that it has been three days and three nights, maybe Yucheng's bones have not been left." The village chief let out a cry of pain at the thought of this, and finally passed out without holding on.

After the villagers looked for more than ten days, there was still no news of Yucheng, and finally everyone gave up looking, and set up a mound for Yucheng under the hill in front of the village, and the whole village went to the grave of Yucheng to worship, the village chief was sick due to excessive sadness, and did not go to the grave of Yucheng to pay tribute to him, since Ye Yucheng passed away, Yecun was put on a sad atmosphere, the village did not have the excitement of the past, and everyone was silent in sadness.
