Chapter 2 The Altar

Tang Xuanming didn't need to answer any more, Pihu had already seen the answer from his expression.

He looked at Tang Xuanming carefully, shook his head, and said: "No wonder you were abandoned by the tribe, that's why!"

Tang Xuanming was confused and thought something terrible would happen. Unexpectedly, Pihu turned around and left with a look of sympathy on his face.

The whole person seemed to have fallen into a fog. Tang Xuanming was confused and puzzled, but here he had no one to talk to, so he could only bury all his questions deep in his heart.

While his thoughts were swirling, he stayed there in a daze, occasionally looking at the pattern on his palm and showing a silly smile. Unknowingly, the originally quiet tribe began to make noise again.

The practice, which was like a religious ceremony, ended at some point. The lively and innocent children began to fight again. Even some adults who looked wild and tough were joking with each other. The original solemn atmosphere disappeared.

A girl with braids and a shapely figure like Tang Xuanming came to him curiously, as if looking at a rare animal. Tang Xuanming stared back not to be outdone.

If he looked at a girl like this on earth, he would either be called a pervert, or the girl would look away shyly.

But now that the script was no longer in Tang Xuanming's hands, the girl became more and more interested when she saw his appearance. She circled around him twice, which made Tang Xuanming almost unbearable before she said, "Where are you?"

What about people from a tribe? I have never seen you so thin. Your tribe must be very pitiful, right?"

The corner of Tang Xuanming's mouth twitched. Can I say that I live in a civilized era where there has long been no division of tribes? I am many times more advanced than you. In my opinion, you are the only ones pitiful?

he can not.

Therefore, he could only hesitate, not knowing what to say, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while.

"Oh, he turns out to be an idiot."

The girl felt a little bored, and her big bright eyes turned around on him, and she found interest again.

He grabbed one of Tang Xuanming's arms, stared at the pattern on the palm of his right hand, and asked doubtfully: "What is this? It seems to be an altar for the royal family to worship heaven. Why do you have such a pattern on your hand?"

Before Tang Xuanming could answer, she had already figured out the answer on her own.

"Looking at your naturally thin appearance, you must be unable to practice the Ant King Method, and you are envious of the practitioners' power, so you drew such a pattern on the palm of your hand."

The girl was naturally lively, and Tang Xuan was a little confused. He didn't understand what the royal family she was talking about? What was the altar? What did the Ant King's Law represent?

But he caught the information coming out of the girl's mouth and asked: "Do I have to be like you to practice the Ant King Method?"

The mermaid lines and clear abdominal muscles inadvertently revealed by the girl in front of her made even a grown man like Tang Xuanming a little ashamed.

"So you can talk!"

The girl's focus was not here. She seemed a little surprised when she received Tang Xuanming's response.

Tang Xuanming's attention brought the girl back to her senses. Tang Xuanming's thin appearance made the girl feel a little depressed. She comforted her in a low voice: "It is difficult for you to practice in your situation. The most basic introduction.

You can’t even pass the checkpoints.”

"It would be great if another supreme power appeared in the human race and created an entry-level method suitable for our practice."

The second half of what the girl said was very low. Tang Xuanming didn't hear it clearly, but he didn't ask further questions. His focus was entirely on the first half of the sentence.

"As long as you are strong enough, you can practice their seemingly lofty cultivation methods."

He only got such a piece of information from the girl's words, so he asked nervously: "What are the entry standards?"

The girl looked at Tang Xuanming's longing eyes and felt a little embarrassed. She seemed not to want to hit him, but she couldn't get around Tang Xuanming's repeated questioning. She helplessly pointed to a stone tripod that was more than two meters tall in the open space in the village.

"Lift him up, and you will be qualified to practice the Ant King Method!"

"Are you kidding me? I saw children as young as seven or eight years old practicing. Can they lift that stone cauldron?"

The stone cauldron is smooth and must have been used frequently. The surface is covered with a layer of patina, full of historical vicissitudes, and there are some complicated and unspeakable patterns on it.

If it were placed not in the open space in front of the village, but in a museum, Tang Xuanming could appreciate it very well and listen to the tour guide describe its vicissitudes of history.

But if you want him to lift the stone cauldron, you can't do it even if you kill him.

Just by visual inspection, that stone cauldron weighs more than 800 kilograms. A normal person would not be able to lift it.

Sure enough, the girl's subsequent words broke some of his illusions.

"Children aged seven or eight have learned some simple body-building methods of the tribe since childhood, and with some special prescriptions, it is not too difficult to lift this stone cauldron..."

"what are you doing?"

"Drink...wake it up for me..."

Under the stunned look of the girl, Tang Xuanming walked to the side of the stone cauldron, hugged one of the cauldron's legs, exerted all his strength, and his face turned red from holding it in. Unfortunately, the big cauldron still could not move.

"Puch!"

The girl smiled rudely, her big watery eyes narrowed into slits.

puff!

Tang Xuanming exhausted all his strength and squatted on the edge of the stone cauldron dejectedly. He looked desperately at the big cauldron in front of him. According to his estimation, this big cauldron might weigh more than a thousand kilograms.

Even though he summoned all his strength, he could not shake the stone tripod even a bit.

His depressed look made the girl a little uneasy, and he consoled her: "Don't be too depressed, Uncle Pihu is very kind. Although he looks fierce, he won't ignore you when he rescues you. It's better to raise you as a member of the tribe."

You can afford it.”

"Ha! There are no freeloaders in the tribe. No tribe would want such waste."

A cold voice suddenly sounded, and Tang Xuanming looked around and saw a young man as strong as a leopard.

Although he was called a boy, he was already over 1.8 meters tall and had strong muscles like a leopard. If it weren't for his childish face, Tang Xuanming would have thought he was meeting a bodybuilder.

The young man did not hide the disdain in his eyes, and there was also a hint of hostility hidden deep in his eyes.

When Tang Xuanming saw the young man looking at the girl next to him, he felt a knot in his heart and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"So you are considered a love rival, are you so jealous?"

"Pihou, what are you talking about? We are all of the same race, why do you say such vicious words?"

"Grandpa Wu Zhu can't practice normally. If he hears your words like this, he will definitely be beaten."

The young man's expression changed slightly, but he still said forcefully: "Grandpa Wu Zhu is of course different. Every time my uncles are injured, he treats them. Although he can't practice, we still respect him very much. How can you

Comparing it to this unknown person?"

The boys and girls were still quarreling with each other, and this youthful spirit made Tang Xuanming smile bitterly.

He looked at the big cauldron under the moonlight, and couldn't help but look at the pattern in his hand, which the girl called the royal altar, and fell into silence.

"I've all gone back to rest and recuperate my energy. I'll have to train normally tomorrow."

Pihu's rich voice rang in everyone's ears, and his voice was calm, suppressing all discussions and quarrels.

His status was very high, and everyone walked back to their respective houses obediently, the kind of house made of simple stones.

The young man named Pihou glanced at Tang Xuanming unwillingly, and finally did not dare to disobey Pihu's order, so he turned and left.

The lively and lovely girl glanced at Tang Xuanming worriedly, and then at Pihu carefully. After all, she didn't dare to say anything and left obediently.

The crowd that originally gathered dispersed quickly, and only Tang Xuanming stood blankly at the edge of the square. He had nowhere to go.

"Come with me, boy!"

The size of the Pihu always exerted great pressure on people. Tang Xuanming was like a little chicken next to him, obediently following him after hearing his words.

He followed Pihu to a secluded corner. Just when he was worried about something unexpected happening, Pihu's figure always reminded him of King Billy and made him feel a little tight in his anus.

How did Pihu know that the kid behind him would have such confusing thoughts in his head? If he knew, he would definitely slap him to death.

While Tang Xuanming was thinking wildly, this man with a strong aura pointed out his hand and said, "You can live here temporarily."

Tang Xuanming followed his hand and found a simple stone house. The inside was simple and clean. A huge stone lay on one side. The top was smooth and flat. It seemed to be a bed.

"Where is the owner of the house?"

"died!"

Pihu's voice was emotionless and flat. His words were like greetings to each other from ordinary people on earth. Tang Xuanming couldn't help but feel a chill and was deeply aware of the dangers of this world.

Pihu ignored him, turned around and strode away. His majestic body made few footsteps in the night, like a large predatory beast.

Tang Xuanming lay on the stone bed with anxiety and uneasiness, thoughts rolling around crazily in his mind.

"A child of seven or eight years old can carry a stone tripod weighing thousands of kilograms. You can imagine how powerful an adult barbarian is, and the obvious owner of this room is obviously an adult. Such a character will die..."

With a huge sense of crisis in his heart, he couldn't help but raise his right hand and carefully stared at the altar pattern in his hand, all his energy concentrated in it.

boom!

There was a huge roar in his mind, and he suddenly came to a strange place.

Surrounded by endless fairy mist, an ancient palace appeared in front of him.

The entire hall seems to be carved out of jade. Looking around, the entire earth is glowing slightly.

Complex patterns are carved on the walls around the temple, including patterns of real dragons roaring, phoenixes soaring, and unicorns walking.
