Chapter 800 (2/2)

Back then, Xiao Fei’s father had already reached Foundation Forging . But the altar had been destroyed during the battle, and so his power had been greatly restricted . After bringing down several powerful invaders, he ended up dying on the battlefield .

Long Chen nodded inside . Perhaps the only ones who could kill a rank three Celestial who had reached Foundation Forging, even with his power greatly restricted, would be experts on the level of Xue You, Yu Changhao, and Huang Junmo . Furthermore, they would have to first advance to Sea Expansion .

The fact that Xiao Fei’s father had been able to fight such experts with his power restricted showed how powerful he had been . He was worthy of being acclaimed as the Xiao tribe’s number one expert .

Furthermore, from the old tribe leader, he had heard that the Heavenly Daos here were extremely strong . The stronger the person, the more restricted their power would be without the protection of the altar .

It was no wonder the aboriginals would need to hide from the invaders despite having so many experts . The Heavenly Daos restricted them to the point that their lives were in constant danger .

“Following the battles, more and more people died, and so the hatred on both sides grew deeper . As a result, the invaders treat us as prey, while we also treat them as prey to be killed,” said the old tribe leader .

In order to get stronger, the aboriginals began to explore the various trial regions . Those places had immense rewards inside, and they understood the Immemorial Path better than anyone else .

It was just regretful that their disciples weren’t strong enough . Their disciples might be Celestials, but they were just rank one Celestials . Many of the better trials were too difficult, and attempting them would just be suicide . Furthermore, anyone whose cultivation base was greater than the Xiantian realm would be sensed by the laws and killed .

Rank two Celestials were rare amongst them . As for someone like Xiao Fei who had the talent to become a rank three Celestial, they were as rare as phoenix feathers or unicorn horns . That was why they had so eagerly hoped for Xiao Fei to awaken his power .

When the Immemorial Path was closed, they would send some disciples in search of trials and resources, and other disciples in search of yuan spirit stone deposits for excavation .

“Long Chen, this map contains detailed markings about all the trials we know of . Both the difficulty and what you’ll find inside are indicated . But no one knows what rewards you’ll get for pa.s.sing . It’ll be up to your own luck . ” The old tribe leader handed Long Chen a map .

Long Chen couldn’t help being delighted . This map was incredibly detailed, and the greatest thing was that it was a map of the complete Immemorial Path .

“Oh, the Immemorial Path isn’t just a single line?” Long Chen was startled . The Immemorial Path wasn’t a straight path . It had the shape of a cross .

“Yes . The Immemorial Path has the shape of a cross . The greatest trials are at the center, and it is where the secrets to reaching immortality or G.o.dhood lie . However, the place has been destroyed . The center is the true core of the Immemorial Path, but there is divine energy that prevents anyone from entering,” said the old tribe leader .

“No one can enter? No one at all?” asked Long Chen .

“That place took the most damage, and there are strange laws that destroy anyone that gets close . ”

Long Chen immediately thought to himself that it would be too stifling to not go there . When he had the time, he would definitely go and take a look .

“Long Chen, this is just a token of our Xiao tribe’s appreciation . ” The old tribe leader handed him a spatial ring .

Long Chen looked inside and jumped . “Are these yuan spirit stones?”

Inside the spatial ring, there were countless fist-sized spirit stones . They were s.h.i.+ning brightly, but they weren’t see-through . There was some yellow energy circulating within them . That was the world’s purest energy .

“This is one hundred thousand yuan spirit stones . It’s ninety percent of what our Xiao tribe has acc.u.mulated over the years . Long Chen, you can’t decline,” said the old tribe leader .

“This is definitely too much . I can’t accept it . ” Long Chen hadn’t expected to be gifted this much . No matter how thick his face was, he couldn’t accept basically all their money .

“Long Chen, you must take this . First of all, for us, only Foundation Forging experts can use these yuan spirit stones, while we only have three Foundation Forging experts . The remaining yuan spirit stones we have are enough for us to get by for many years, and once the Immemorial Path closes, we’ll once more go in search of mines . There’s no need for you to worry about it . ” The old tribe leader patted Long Chen on the shoulder .

Long Chen was moved . Although he had helped Xiao Fei awaken, and so he had a.s.sumed the Xiao tribe would give him some kind of reward, he hadn’t expected it to be so great . In fact, it was too much for him to accept .

“With Xiao Fei awakening as a rank three Celestial and awakening his bloodline, as well as the ancestral diagram, we don’t know how else to thank you,” said the old tribe leader .

“Then I’ll shamelessly accept . But you must accept a small gift from me as well . ”

Long Chen also fetched out a spatial ring and gave it to the old tribe leader . When he looked inside, it was his turn to be startled .
