The Life Soul Fruit is the most important thing in this village, just like food in the secular world.
It’s just that the people living here don’t need food, only the Life Soul Fruit.
Once there is no Life Soul Fruit, you will die.
Most of the children Zi Chen saw were sallow and thin, because they ate too little Life Soul Fruit, which was equivalent to insufficient food and malnutrition.
Under such circumstances, Zi Chen was certainly not willing to waste their Life Soul Fruit.
Now I can completely adapt to the rules here through practice.
Whether it's food or Life Soul Fruit, he doesn't need it.
Zi Chen returned to the room, leaned the wooden stick against the door, and prepared to continue practicing for the day.
A knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Come in."
Zi Chen raised his head and glanced at the door.
The wooden door was pushed open and Shan Ya walked in. Like most people here, she was wearing very little.
Zi Chen motioned Shan Ya to sit down, feeling a little surprised in his heart. Shan Ya usually came here before hunting.
"You can already walk on the ground. It seems that you are recovering well."
Shan Ya sat down, looked at Zi Chen and said.
Zi Chen limped to the opposite side of the mountain and sat down. The two of them were separated by a wooden table. Zi Chen smiled and said: "It's not bad, but I still have some inconvenience in my movements. It will get better gradually."
"for you."
Shan Ya took out a Life Soul Fruit and handed it to Zi Chen.
Zi Chen shook his head and said, "You can eat it. If you don't have enough physical strength, you won't be able to hunt the soul-eating beast."
Shan Ya's expression was a little sad.
There has been no harvest for many days. If nothing continues, all the people in Kata Village will eventually starve to death.
This is not without precedent.
Shanya was silent, and the atmosphere in the room was slightly depressing.
After a while, Zi Chen broke the silence and said, "Can you tell me about your soul power?"
Shan Ya raised his head and glanced at Zi Chen, his eyes a little complicated.
There is no consternation, only complexity.
Logically speaking, it is impossible for a person living normally in this world to not even know about soul power.
Zi Chen was not surprised by Shan Ya's unsurprised expression and said, "I'm very curious about soul power."
Shan Ya stretched out his palm, and there was black light flowing in his palm. The black light turned into a rope, slowly extending towards Zi Chen in front of him.
"This is the soul-binding rope."
Shan Ya explained that the rope was like a spiritual snake and began to circle on the table.
Zi Chen stared at this soul-binding rope. It was completely composed of soul power, so it could be extended at will.
"It can only be used to trap the soul-eating beast, and the final blow is completed by the soul-shaking light."
Shan Ya said: "The soul-shaking light cannot kill the soul-eating beast, it can only temporarily make it lose consciousness."
Zi Chen frowned slightly.
Shan Ya did not notice Zi Chen's abnormality and continued: "These are the only two soul arts in our Kata Village, but the soul-shaking light is currently only mastered by me."
"Where's the Holy Talisman Technique?"
Zi Chen asked: "Don't you understand the Holy Talisman Technique?"
"Holy Talisman Technique, what is that?" Shanya asked in confusion.
Zi Chen did not answer in detail, but asked again: "Are other villages like this?"
Shan Ya lowered his head and said with some shame: "The soul arts in other villages are more than ours. Our Kata Village is the weakest."
This was obviously not the answer Zi Chen wanted to know, but from another perspective, Shanya actually answered his question.
Here, there are only soul arts, the difference is the quantity.
"Isn't this the Holy Talisman Realm? Why is this happening?"
"Or is it that the information obtained by the palace master is actually wrong, and this is not the Holy Talisman Realm?"
Zi Chen fell into deep thought.
After an unknown amount of time, Shan Ya's voice sounded again, "Can I ask you a favor?"
Zi Chen came back to his senses and looked up at the mountain pass.
"Can you please not leave Kata Village?"
Shan Ya said nervously: "In other words, can we not abandon Kata Village?"
Zi Chen was very puzzled.
"In our place, once villages cannot survive, they will merge. However, some mergers are for survival and growth, while others are for the purpose of obtaining more bait."
Shan Ya's eyes dimmed, "In Kata Village right now, there are only four of us who can hunt, but the population here is over a hundred. The nearby villages that want to merge with us actually want to use our people as
Bait.”
This was not surprising to Zi Chen. If the strengths of the two sides were not equal, then the weaker side would naturally be bullied.
For example, in Kata Village right now, there are only four people in the hunting team, but they have to provide food for everyone, which is a drag.
In this case, when people from other villages asked for a merger, they naturally focused on the many villagers who had not awakened their soul power.
Once accepted, these people will become bait when hunting soul-eating beasts.
On the other hand, if there were not four soul hunters in Kata Village, but forty, it would obviously be different.
The law of the weak and the strong exists no matter where it is.
Zi Chen did not give a definite answer because he did not understand the meaning of Shan Ya's words at all.
Early the next morning, Shan Ya did not come to see Zi Chen. When Zi Chen walked out of the room, he happened to hear some villagers talking.
It is said that in order to find a good place, they set out early in the hope that they would gain something today.
After a night of practice, Zi Chen's condition improved a little, and his pace gradually became more flexible.
According to Zi Chen's estimate, he should be back to normal in about half a month.
After basking in the sun at the door, Zi Chen returned to the room and continued to practice, trying to adapt to this place as soon as possible.
At noon, there was suddenly a loud noise outside, mixed with angry roars.
"It's all that damn idiot. If it weren't for him, nothing would have happened to Shanya!"
This was Han Rui's voice. He looked very angry, "I'm going to kill him!"
Immediately afterwards, a wailing sound came from outside.
When Zi Chen heard the news and walked out of the room, everyone in the village came out, crying.
The breath of despair flooded the surrounding area.
"What happened?"
Zi Chen looked at Liang Bao in the crowd. His eyes were red and he was very sad.
"How dare you ask what's going on?"
Han Rui came to Zi Chen angrily and grabbed Zi Chen's robe, "It's all because of you! It was you who killed Shan Ya!"
Zi Chen's head buzzed.
Shanya is dead?
In that Kata village, the only person who could use the soul-shaking light died?
Then, who can catch the Soul-Eating Beast next?
Without someone who finally takes action, this village will be completely destroyed.
The crying all around became even more tragic.
Everyone is desperate.
Furthermore, the way they looked at Zi Chen also became unkind.
"It's you, it's you! It's you who killed Shanya, and I want you to be buried with him!"
Han Rui was very strong and shook Zi Chen vigorously.
