The whole Stone Village immediately became lively, with the children running wildly on the square.
The crops on the side had all matured long ago, with all sorts of fruits and vegetables hanging from the vines: cucumbers, eggplants, tomatoes, peppers, and watermelons.
Not far away, two fire rhinoceroses, one big and one small, were munching on the ripe corn.
Rows of corn stood like mighty warriors, each with a "big club" stuck on them!
Shi Teng nodded with great satisfaction, "These corns can be used to make some corn wine, maybe we can even exchange them for other treasures!"
The Old Patriarch said meaningfully, "This is truly a divine rain, all the crops have matured!"
Shi Teng picked a cucumber and threw it to the little guy, then picked one for himself and started munching on it.
This was truly green and pollution-free, with a faint aura of spiritual energy.
Then, he picked a few tomatoes, each as big as a fist, and a faint smile appeared on his lips. "Tonight, I'll make a cucumber salad and scrambled eggs with dragon eggs and tomatoes!"
Shi Teng had been in Stone Village for more than ten days. During the day, he took the children to collect bird eggs and catch savage beasts, having a great time and accumulating a lot of food.
At night, he diligently cultivated beneath the Willow Deity.
Occasionally, the Willow Deity would offer guidance, and his cultivation speed was extremely fast. He could vaguely sense that his second celestial cave was about to break out.
A few days later,
The sky had just begun to lighten, and all the people of Stone Village gathered in the square. Above them, the heads of a cow, a sheep, and a pig were being offered as sacrifices.
Shi Hao stood alone at the very front, with several strange runes drawn on his face.
The Old Patriarch mumbled a spell that Shi Teng couldn't understand, waving his staff and praying to the heavens.
Then, the Old Patriarch's voice rose, "Shi Hao, today is your fifth birthday, and I will help you with your Awakening.
From now on, you will no longer be a child. You must complete the assigned tasks every day to earn food, just like everyone else!"
"Okay!"
Shi Hao replied in a milky voice.
The Old Patriarch walked to the Great Cauldron, which was still steaming, and took out a black bottle from his bosom, pouring a turbid liquid into it.
A wave of fishy smell immediately spread throughout the square.
"This is Savage Beast Essence Blood that I extracted using Stone Village's secret techniques. It can help you with your Awakening!"
Shi Hao scratched the back of his head, a little puzzled, "Grandpa Patriarch, what is Awakening?"
"As a child of Stone Village, at the age of five, you must undergo Awakening, opening your body's meridians and tempering your bones. Some even have the chance to awaken special abilities!"
"Oh!"
Shi Hao responded softly.
Watching the sun rise slowly in the sky, radiating ten thousand rays of light.
The Old Patriarch spoke, "Shi Hao, quickly, enter the Great Cauldron. Now is the best time for Awakening. The rising yang energy, the brilliant light!"
Shi Hao didn't hesitate at all and leaped into the Great Cauldron.
The scalding medicinal liquid made his whole body feel like it was about to peel off, his skin turned red, as if he was about to bleed.
However, Shi Hao still gritted his teeth and endured.
The Great Cauldron contained strange Runes, emitting strands of golden light that then all merged into Shi Hao's body.
Shi Hao let out a roar, his body now filled with power.
With each breath, countless pure spiritual energies continuously gathered towards him.
Ding, Congratulations to the host for signing in at the square, receiving Desolate Ancient Saint Physique *1 [Desolate Ancient Saint Physique: Unrivaled and peerless, the strongest human physique, easy to cultivate, and after reaching Great Completion, can challenge a Supreme Being.]
Shi Teng's face showed a hint of excitement; the Desolate Ancient Saint Physique had arrived at the perfect moment!
"Little guy, you had your Supreme Bone taken away in your youth, and now the Supreme Bone hasn't fully formed yet. As your older brother, I'll give you a fortuitous encounter!"
"System, bestow the Desolate Ancient Saint Physique upon Shi Hao!"
"Boom!"
A deafening roar echoed through the heavens and earth, as if the sky had split open. The newly risen sun miraculously disappeared.
The sky was overcast, with wind and lightning, and rolling thunder!
Everyone's faces showed shock.
The Old Patriarch's eyes widened, his right hand tightly gripping the staff, and he muttered softly, "Heaven bless Stone Village, Heaven bless Stone Village!"
Willow Deity couldn't help but awaken from her slumber.
Unexpectedly, this little guy's Awakening actually caused such a celestial phenomenon.
Shi Teng revealed a faint smile, "Little guy, this is all your brother can do. You'll have to explore the Emperor of Desolation's path yourself!"
A huge vortex formed in the Nine Heavens, with rolling thunder within, sweeping towards Shi Hao.
Boom!
With a deafening roar, the entire Great Cauldron shattered, and the medicinal liquid inside instantly evaporated.
The immense power directly sent the surrounding villagers flying.
Lightning enveloped Shi Hao's body, suspending him in the air.
"Lightning tempering the body!"
Willow Deity's face once again showed a hint of shock. "A natural phenomenon, lightning shaking the eight directions. Could this be the Desolate Ancient Saint Physique, which only appears once every ten thousand years?"
"The human race has no Great Emperors, but the nine great saint physiques fight against the heavens!"
First, there was Shi Teng's Ancient Azure Dragon Physique!
And now, the Desolate Ancient Saint Physique!
This tiny Stone Village actually possessed so many opportunities.
The future of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was destined to be extraordinary!
After a long time,
The electric light merged into Shi Hao's body, and he slowly opened his eyes.
He looked puzzled and said, "Huh? What just happened? I felt like I heard thunder!"
The Old Patriarch was once again filled with excitement, saying, "Heaven blesses Stone Village!"
Shi Teng walked over and gently patted Shi Hao on the shoulder. "Little guy, your brother can only help you this much. The road ahead is up to you!"
Shi Hao nodded, his face full of confusion. "Oh, brother, where is the road ahead?"
"...The road is at your feet, and also in the distance!"
Shi Hao was even more bewildered, but he still felt that his brother's words made a lot of sense.
The Old Patriarch walked over, holding his staff, his tone excited. "Little guy, do you feel unwell anywhere?"
Shi Hao shook his head slightly.
"Then, have you awakened some kind of special physique!"
Special physique?
Shi Hao shook his head again, utterly bewildered!
Shi Teng quickly spoke up, "Grandpa Patriarch, the vast wilderness of this Great Wasteland is boundless. Countless special physiques are things we've never even seen. How would we know? Only in future battles might they reveal their special power!"
The Old Patriarch nodded.
"Little Teng is right. We are, after all, still rather shallow in our understanding!"
While the two were talking, Shi Hao took out the Azure-Scaled Eagle Treasure Technique Shi Teng had given him earlier. He immediately sat cross-legged on the ground to absorb it.
Accompanied by the appearance of green light around Shi Hao.
Purple lightning flickered within the light.
The people were still somewhat puzzled, wanting to step forward and take a look.
Suddenly, a bird's cry soared into the sky, and a huge Azure-Scaled Eagle phantom manifested around Shi Hao, its wings flapping as it took flight.
His face revealed an excited expression, "Hehe, I can fly, I can fly!"
Boom!
As soon as he finished speaking, his entire body slammed into the stone wall beside him, accompanied by a loud crash.
The other villagers didn't yet have a concept of Treasure Techniques.
However, the Willow Deity in the distance was completely shocked. The Desolate Ancient Saint Physique appeared only once every ten thousand years, and it was said that the cultivation speed was a hundred times more effective, advancing a thousand miles in a single day. Truly amazing!
In just a few breaths, Shi Hao had learned a Treasure Technique of the Azure-Scaled Eagle.
Although it was only a simple Treasure Technique, it was still shocking enough!
