Chapter 8

The villagers were petrified, some of them dazed and stunned. Although they had heard before that Little Point's constitution far exceeded that of his peers, they never expected his physical strength to be so monstrous.

"Could it be that he used the mysterious power of the bone script?" someone asked.

"No, I saw it clearly. This is pure physical strength," said Shi Linhu, the leader of the hunting team.

"Boom!"

Little Point Shi Hao threw the bronze tripod to the ground, raising a cloud of dust. He quickly retreated, not being enveloped by the dust. The loud noise made the villagers' hearts tighten again. This was truly a prodigy.

The result was unbelievable. A three-year-old child lifted a thousand-pound tripod. Not only in this mountain range, but even at the farthest ends of the earth, it would be hard to find such a feat.

The villagers were all shocked, even the clan leader Shi Yunfeng was surprised. He thought Shi Hao would not be able to lift the tripod at this age, but he had achieved it ahead of time.

"Is this real? How can Little Point have such strength? I've never heard of such a child."

"Indeed, it's a bit unbelievable. If he weren't human, I would think a descendant of an ancient mythical beast had come!"

The villagers came to their senses and began to discuss. The little guy's performance was like a bolt of lightning, making everyone's hearts race and leaving them deeply shaken.

"Clan leader, have you been to some prosperous regions? Have you seen such a child?"

"Yes, Yunfeng, you've visited many powerful tribes. Have you heard of such a prodigy?" Even some of the elders couldn't sit still, asking in amazement at Little Point's performance.

Shi Yunfeng said, "I once saw a few special children in a large tribe with millions of people. They were extraordinarily talented, astonishing to behold, and very powerful even at a young age. But I think they are slightly inferior to Little Point."

The villagers were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. This was a great gift from heaven to Stone Village! A child who could rival the offspring of ancient fierce beasts, if he grew up, what would he become? Stone Village would flourish because of him.

An elder analyzed, "Those large tribes are so powerful, with many experts. They can definitely hunt terrifying fierce beasts and use the rare blood of ancient mythical beasts to temper and cleanse the bodies of those exceptionally talented children. Otherwise, the gap between them and Little Point might be even greater."

"The realms are boundless, vast and endless. In the territories of those legendary super tribes and some royal domains, there might be even more powerful children. After all, the world is too large, and what we know is just a small corner," Shi Yunfeng said.

This martial arts demonstration delighted the villagers. The children were all very strong, with great potential. As for Shi Hao, he was an unexpected and astonishing surprise.

When the crowd dispersed, several clan elders and important figures like Shi Linhu did not leave. They continued to discuss the topic seriously.

"In the future, if Shi Hao grows up, could he really kill a true mythical beast or a pure-blooded adult lion in a one-on-one fight? Just one of those legendary ancient fierce beasts could easily destroy a super tribe!"

An elder doused the fiery enthusiasm, saying, "Having potential as a child doesn't mean he will become a world-shaking expert. Many geniuses wither in their youth."

Everyone fell silent, then nodded.

Shi Yunfeng frowned, saying, "Speaking of which, Shi Hao was born in our village, which has some inherent disadvantages. Our starting point is low, and we can't provide him with the blood of ancient mythical beasts or legendary mountain treasures and holy medicines like those large tribes."

Shi Linhu said, "It's still manageable while he is young, but if this continues, he will really fall behind the children in those large tribes."

Shi Yunfeng thought for a moment and said, "From what I understand, in those powerful tribes at the far ends of the earth, children with talent usually undergo their first important cleansing at the age of five. They are sealed in bronze furnaces and tempered with various holy medicines and the blood of ancient mythical beasts to increase their potential."

The others sighed softly. After all, this was just a village. How could it compare to those large tribes? They couldn't even find holy medicines or the blood of ancient mythical beasts.

"Let's do our best. We'll try to kill some large beasts, extract some precious blood, and gradually accumulate it to prepare for Little Point's cleansing at the age of five," an elder sighed.

Shi Linhu frowned and raised another issue, saying, "To rival those legendary powerful children, besides laying a solid foundation for the body, the inheritance of cultivation is also a crucial problem."

Clan leader Shi Yunfeng nodded, saying, "I will think of a way."

Everyone was stunned. They all knew that the clan leader had once gone far away with some clan members, entering the doors of many noble families. In the end, he brought back some bone books at the cost of blood and life. Could they rival the inheritance of those super tribes?

Of the dozen or so brothers who went together, only two returned covered in blood, and in the end, only the clan leader survived, but he was left with a chronic illness. He never spoke in detail about what happened back then, and the villagers never asked.

What exactly happened back then? There was clearly another hidden story.

In the following days, Clan Leader Shi Yunfeng was very busy, often refining herbs. The furnace in the courtyard never went out, and the smell of medicine filled the air.

"Grandpa Clan Leader, don't overwork yourself. Take care to rest," Little Shi Hao said, his long eyelashes making him look even prettier than a little girl, and he was very considerate in advising the old man to rest.

"It's fine," Shi Yunfeng smiled and shook his head.

The clan elders and those who knew the truth did not say much to Shi Hao. He did not know that Shi Yunfeng was preparing for his "cleansing" at the age of five.

In the setting sun, the hunting team returned, each person carrying a wild beast on their shoulder. Although some were injured, they were all laughing and talking.

"Uncle, you're back." He tilted his little face, white and tender, with clear and black eyes, and politely greeted the group.

"Here, these are your favorite berries. I picked them specially for you," Shi Linhu handed over a leather bag. When opened, it revealed a bright red interior, fragrant and fresh, with round, smooth berries like shiny red carnelians.

"Thank you, Uncle." Shi Hao's big eyes twinkled as he happily accepted it.

In the evening, the villagers sacrificed the beasts before the willow tree. After the ceremony, several intelligent prey were moved into the clan leader's courtyard.

Soon, the stone courtyard was filled with the smell of blood. Several fierce beasts lay there, covered in blood, and their bodies gradually became shriveled, with runes flashing mysteriously and eerily.

These were bone scripts, now intertwining in the blood, like fine lightning streaks. Shi Yunfeng was casting a spell, using mysterious power to refine and extract the essence from the beast blood, harvesting "blood medicine." After continuous refinement, the beast blood decreased, and each fierce beast finally only dropped a single drop, falling into a jade jar. The blood droplets were clear and transparent, like blood diamonds, shining brightly.

"According to the bone book, if there are enough and sufficiently divine holy medicines and true blood during the cleansing at the age of five, the foundation laid will have a profound impact on future achievements," Clan Leader Shi Yunfeng said softly.

He did not want to waste Shi Hao's talent and did not want him to fall behind the geniuses of the super tribes. He was always thinking about how to accumulate the precious items needed for the "cleansing."

"Better to have less than to have poor quality. Only high-quality true blood will be useful for Little Point. Unfortunately, rare species are too scarce and too powerful to deal with," he murmured to himself.
