Chapter 103 The Temptation of Returning to the Village, We Are Invincible
"Haha, I'm back again!"
Shi Hao was filled with joy, let out a roar, and ran off like a madman.
Having been away from home for nearly two years of study, and having recently experienced a major ordeal, although I escaped unharmed, I still feel a sense of inexplicable fatigue and exhaustion.
Now that I'm finally home, I feel genuinely happy and joyful, filled with a sense of bliss.
Even from several hundred meters away, the "paradise on earth" was already clearly visible, much to the astonishment of Shi Liu and the two birds that had followed Shi Hao.
This place is so peaceful, with lush green grass, azure lakes, auspicious birds and rare animals, and a small village nestled in front, emanating wisps of spiritual energy and the fragrant aroma of herbs.
Far from the hustle and bustle of the world, this place brings peace to the soul, as if one has received a spiritual baptism.
"So many miraculous herbs!"
Shi Hao originally intended to rush into the village, but he stopped abruptly in front of a large field of medicinal herbs at the village entrance, his eyes shining brightly.
Although most of the medicinal herbs had been harvested, the remaining roots and stems seemed to outline the vibrant scene that had once existed, captivating the heart and soul.
Whether it was the stone glaze, the great red bird firefly, or the mysterious bald bird that emerged from the giant cocoon of Baiduan Mountain, they were all almost petrified.
"Ah, Zhaoyang, don't tell me this is the spiritual herb you said you dug up from Baiduan Mountain?" Shi Liu couldn't help but scream.
This medicinal herb field is several times larger than her father, the Human Emperor's, medicinal herb garden!
I know you dug up a lot of medicinal herbs. Before, you seemed to be giving away medicinal herbs like they were free, but I didn't say you brought the entire Hundred Herbs Garden home, did I?
"What has blinded me, Zhaoyang? I'm crying." Shi Liu covered her face and wept. What happened to the poor relatives in the countryside? It turned out that she was the poorest one.
Shi Zhao pinched her cheap best friend's cheek without any politeness. "Why are you pretending to cry in my arms? Not a single tear has fallen, but you're drooling. Be more reserved, sister."
At the same time, the bald peacock, whom Shi Hao named "Er Tuzi" (Second Bald), stared intently at the willow tree at the village entrance, its legs trembling as if it were about to collapse in fear.
That patch of medicinal herbs was indeed astonishing, but the most frightening thing was the tree next to it!
The willow tree is lush and green, with dozens of branches hanging down and swaying gently, rippling with soft green light and halos. Its presence makes this world different, adding a sacred aura, transcending the mortal world.
"Second brother, what are you trembling about? You're really embarrassing your elder brother." The big red bird gave the bald bird a wing slap.
"Don't talk nonsense! There's a super huge one up ahead, towering into the heavens, vast and endless! It's terrifying!" Baldy was terrified, almost wetting himself.
It was once the Great Venerable Peacock, and it was even close to reaching the realm of igniting divine fire. What kind of powerful beings hadn't it seen?
However, an accident happened later, and he lost all his cultivation and ended up in this state. But his knowledge is still there. Now, when he sees this willow tree at the entrance of the village, he gets goosebumps all over his body.
"What nonsense are you spouting?" the big red bird asked suspiciously.
"I'm talking about that tree, do you see it? It's sacred!" Baldy's voice trembled, he could hardly believe his eyes.
It trembled and grabbed Shi Hao, saying, "You brat... what's going on? Why didn't you tell me what... what his/her background is? I'm scared to death."
At this moment, the big red bird also sensed something was wrong. It carefully sensed the ancient tree and found that although it was incredibly peaceful and full of soft light, it still instilled awe in the bird and dared not act recklessly there.
"Zhaoyang, what's going on?" Shi Liu couldn't help but ask.
"This is the Willow God, the village's sacred spirit, who protects the peace of Stone Village. You should worship and pay homage to Him," Shi Zhao said.
The sight of one person and two birds was truly astonishing. What kind of village is this that deserves the protection of such a powerful deity, who has become the local spirit?
Shi Hao had already run into the village, but before he could see his old friends, he met up with three little green-scaled eagles that had grown up.
The three Azure-scaled Eagles stayed in Stone Village, sleeping at the roots of the Willow God, worshipping him daily and receiving many benefits, which made their bloodline increasingly pure.
"Little one's back!" The sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking quickly alerted the villagers, who all rushed out to greet them, men, women, and children alike, all very excited.
"Good lad, you've been gone for two years! We've missed you so much!"
A group of childhood friends rushed forward, piling up on top of Shi Hao and finally burying him.
A group of people laughed and joked, their eyes moist. They had grown up together since childhood, and their relationship was filled with the most sincere and simple feelings.
Later, the adults came to see him one by one, showing him great care and affection.
Shi Zhao watched quietly, then introduced Shi Liu to the villagers, and led the group to worship the Willow God. This was considered a successful completion of their mission.
"A pool of Taiyi True Water, and what's in that? Did you even bring out the Fountain of Immortality? There are also several quasi-saint herbs and saint herbs. Goodness, this is even more terrifying than the Primordial Divine Mountain! You've emptied out Hundred Broken Mountains!"
Er Tuzi was so surprised by what he saw that he became somewhat numb.
"Wait a minute, that battle outside Hundred Broken Mountains that shook the eight regions back then, could it also be related to you?!" The bald man accidentally guessed the truth.
During that battle, there was a moment when the Demon Tree and a Divine Willow Tree each filled half the sky, like gods and demons facing off, a moment that will be unforgettable for all time.
Shi Zhao glanced at the bald bird and smiled without saying a word.
"Silly bird, only thinking of that now?" The God-Slaying Stone, hanging from Shi Zhao's hair as a decoration, chuckled and said, "Back in the day, Xiao Zhao and I defeated a demon!"
'
..."The group was speechless; this stubborn rock was quite an oddity.
"Why don't you say that you and she are still invincible together?" the big red bird said disdainfully.
"No hair..."
Before the God-Slaying Stone could finish speaking, Shi Zhao casually tossed it away.
As the sun set, Shi Village held a lavish banquet, mainly to welcome Shi Hao home, and the atmosphere was very festive and lively.
It was at this time that the clan leader, looking at the little boy who was already over ten years old, formally proposed that from now on everyone should call him by his full name, Shi Hao.
In the rules of the Great Wilderness, this means that he has truly grown up.
The day after returning to the village, Shi Zhao personally cooked and hosted a small banquet.
But on the third day, looking at the restless Xiao Shi, she gradually fell into deep thought.
On the fourth day, Shi Hao was kicked out by her in a disgusted manner.
"Two hundred thousand miles further east in the Western Frontier lies Falling Phoenix Ridge, the property of the Rain Clan. There is a rare treasure there; if you have nothing else to do, go and retrieve it."
Shi Zhao opened a teleportation channel and stuffed the mischievous kid and the God-Slaying Stone, along with a few other troublemakers, into it. As for where they landed, that was up to fate.
