Dawn of a New Era

Chapter 35: Tree God

Only the details can see the real chapter.

Looking at the piercing ball, he suddenly realized that his seemingly powerful swordsmanship was only built on the surface of a warrior-level physical fitness, but in fact it was vain and unstable.

Martial arts is not like learning, it's not that if you understand it, you will master it.

Memory is just memory. If you want to become your own, you need to practice it over and over again, and finally form muscle memory, which becomes the instinct of the body. There is no shortcut in this regard.

The impetuousness in his heart faded away, and he quickly calmed down.

Immediately, he stabbed at the ball again with a sword!

...

A small island more than a hundred kilometers away from here.

This small island was much larger than the small island where Chen Shouyi was located, with a radius of five or six kilometers. The island was rich in products and full of green trees.

In particular, one of the big trees stands out from the crowd. It is about several hundred meters high, and its jade-like leaves are like a huge canopy covering nearly one-fifth of the island's area.

Under the big tree, a group of hundreds of tribes is stationed here.

This is a fairly primitive tribe, and civilization is still in its infancy.

Young and middle-aged adults with higher status are mostly covered with animal skins, while young people and women are basically naked.

Of course, the meaning of animal skin here has also transcended clothes, and is a symbol of force and status.

However, this tribe survived quite well. The males are powerful, the females are ruddy, and the proportion of young people is extremely high.

Under the protection of the tree god on the island, there are neither terrible beasts nor dangerous natural spirits. The whole tribe is thriving and full of strong upward momentum. The new population born every year is far more than the death.

Since five years ago, under the oracle, at the cost of paying more than 30 tribesmen, he assisted the tree god to kill a giant beast on the island.

They haven't had a clansman who died abnormally for two full years.

until yesterday!

Before night fell, two of their clansmen who went out to fish did not return after going out again.

The night of this world is dangerous, and there are tree gods on the island, and no natural spirit can harm them.

But as soon as they reached the ocean, this area where the tree god's great power could not be extended for the time being, I am afraid that there would be no life left.

For this matter.

Early in the morning, the wizards of the tribe gathered all the tribesmen to sacrifice to the tree god before they went out to hunt and gather.

The wizard was old and wrinkled, and for his age he was already thinking about the afterlife.

In this world, death is not the end of life.

In the process of communicating with the tree god, when he seemed to be half awake, he had vaguely seen countless dead clansmen continuing their lives there, and they were happy and peaceful afterwards.

After communicating again, the message from the tree god also proved this to be the case.

The behavior of offering sacrifices to the tree god is not only a manifestation of his transcendent status as a tribe, but more importantly, it can win the favor of the tree god.

Naturally, such activities must be carried out when conditions permit, and if conditions are not met, then conditions must be created.

The 'Tree God' is quite huge, not to mention the huge canopy, the tree alone has a diameter of more than ten meters. No one knows how many years this tree has lived. Its bark is like dry earth, with cracks everywhere. , giving people a vicissitudes and ancient feeling.

According to their status and age, members of all tribes formed several circles around the tree god.

In the innermost circle are the chiefs of the tribe and some of the strongest warriors, followed by teenagers who are still growing up, and finally women and children. As for younger infants, naturally they will not be brought here.

As such a primitive tribe, and a still ignorant 'tree god' who has just developed divinity.

Sacrifice is naturally not a complicated ceremony,

Not to mention any formal prayers, but even so, the solemn atmosphere is not lacking.

The aging old wizard danced like a madman, dancing with hands and feet, and uttered strange shouts that even he couldn't understand.

Soon, a beast the size of a goat with its four legs bound was carried by four strong men to the vicinity of the tree.

The sacrificial priest took out a black stone knife that looked like it was polished by black stones, and cut its throat with a knife while it screamed pitifully, a large amount of blood gushed out, and the blood just fell to the ground.

A kind of clear and faint light rises from the ground where the tree roots are densely intertwined.

The beast, which was still twitching, suddenly tilted its head, completely silent, as if its soul had been absorbed.

The surroundings became silent, and all the barbarians looked in awe and fear, and even the ignorant children closed their mouths with unease.

In the light, the old wizard had sat down with his eyes closed, his head tilted, and he seemed to have lost consciousness.

But no barbarian dared to disturb the communication between the wizard and the tree god.

After a long time, the old wizard finally opened his eyes. He seemed to have been greatly frightened, and his face was terrified and distorted:

"Danger from the North!"

...

Chen Shouyi didn't realize all of this.

He practiced continuously for four or five hours.

For the fast-moving ball, he was able to stab two or three times with ten swords at the beginning, and in the end, he basically hit four or five out of ten.

Of course, Chen Shouyi also knew that it was only the first practice that he could make such great progress. As for every point of improvement after that, he needed to spend more energy.

It's like an exam, from 20 to 30 points to 40 to 50 points is the easiest, with a little effort, and even a little more carefulness in the exam, you can do it, but from 70 to 80 points, to 90 points, That is by no means a short-term effort and you will be able to do it.

The further you get to the back, the harder it is to move forward every step of the way!

...

Feeling the hunger in his stomach, Chen Shouyi finally stopped.

After returning to the entrance of the tunnel, within half a minute, the soreness of the muscles has been quickly calmed down by the innate ability of natural healing.

He opened his briefcase and had just pulled out the cooked beef and bread for lunch.

Shell Girl flew over with a light body, pointing to the extra pile of gold dust in the distance, and shouted loudly:

"Gems! Gems! Gems!

Chen Shouyi had lost his initial excitement about Jinsha, but in order not to discourage Shell girl, he went over to take a look.

There are about three taels, plus the leftovers from the previous few days, it is already more than a catty.

According to the estimated weight, he immediately took out three small glass beads from his pocket as a reward.

Shell girl took it with a happy face, and shined on the sun like a money fanatic, then flew into the air again, hovering over a patch of grass for a long time, watching Chen Shouyi vigilantly like a thief, while he was not paying attention, she Quickly flew into the grass.

Under the cover of the grass, her squatting body and her slender hands dug open a small pit, exposing the shells buried inside.

She opened the shell and put three glass beads inside.

The glass beads here are filled to the brim, exuding a jeweled look.

As if afraid of being blinded by the light, she narrowed her eyes slightly.

Looking at this 'huge' treasure chest full of gems, I just feel fascinated and completely unable to control myself.

After a long while, she came back to her senses, quickly closed the shell, and covered her again with soil.

She pretended to be nonchalant, swayed in front of Chen Shouyi, and soon, full of motivation, looked around for gold sand.

Chen Shouyi, who was eating lunch, raised his head and looked at her busy figure speechlessly.
