Chapter 45 Hu Liena: May I ask, which is stronger, the Primordial Immortal Court or the Joyful Union Sect?
It had huge, avian claws that gleamed with a metallic sheen, broken golden feathers that resembled spears, and several broken horns that exuded a terrifying aura.
In particular, a large yellow dog passing by was gnawing on a crystal-clear leg bone in a corner, exuding an aura comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
The crunching sound made Qian Renxue's scalp tingle.
"That dog is actually eating soul bones?!"
At this moment, Qian Renxue's worldview was completely shattered.
She remembered the angel soul bone she had absorbed, a priceless treasure passed down through her family for countless years, which was usually nurtured with the best soul tools.
But now she discovers that her prized heirloom might just be a dog's chew toy in this village!
"What kind of place is this...?"
At this moment, where was the slightest bit of the arrogance of the young master of the Spirit Hall in Qian Renxue's eyes?
She watched the villagers sitting on the doorstep, eating from the skulls of some ancient species as bowls.
Then I looked at those children who were wielding beast-tooth daggers that were comparable to the artifacts of the Douluo Continent, and were playing with wood.
And there was the shriveled eyeball hanging on the wall, used for warding off evil spirits, which appeared to be from a soul beast hundreds of thousands of years old...
For a moment, I couldn't help but shiver, feeling utterly terrified.
At this moment, Qian Renxue finally understood why Tang Hao, a level 99 peerless Douluo, was slapped away.
In this village built from the bones of ancient ferocious beasts, level 99?
I'm afraid he can't even beat that big yellow dog gnawing on a bone!
"Miss Qian, stop daydreaming."
Seeing Qian Renxue's bewildered expression, the old village chief assumed she was frightened and quickly explained with a smile:
"These are all game that the village kids hunt to practice on weekdays. The fur is used to make clothes, and the bones that are harder are used to pave roads or make tools."
"The remaining useless bone fragments will be given to Big Yellow as snacks."
"Life in the wilderness is like this, nothing fancy, I hope you'll forgive my poor living conditions."
Listening to the old village chief's Versailles-esque explanation, Qian Renxue's lips twitched uncontrollably.
Practice?
prey?
Useless broken bones?
She stared at the faint glow of a torso bone gleaming among the pile of useless broken bones, and swallowed hard.
That's a top-grade torso bone that could drive even a Title Douluo crazy!
"Sir, you...you're too modest..."
Qian Renxue's voice trembled slightly as she answered. At that moment, she had a strange feeling that she had not come to the mortal world, but had accidentally entered the heavenly realm.
Moreover, it's the kind of place where people don't even care about treasures.
Please excuse my poor performance! Please, my ass!
Qian Renxue felt her heart pounding.
"Don't be shy, Miss Qian. Feel at home in Shi Village."
Old village chief Shi Yunfeng glanced at Qian Renxue, who was still unaware of what was happening beside him, and then turned back to smile kindly:
"You are a guest recognized by the Spirit Master. Although we people of Stone Village are rough, we will never be stingy when it comes to our guests."
As he spoke, the old village chief turned to look at Shi Linhu, the burly man who had just thrown Tang Hao out, and gave the order:
"Lin Hu, we must not be impolite to our distinguished guests."
"Go and prepare that little beast we just hunted today. We'll light a fire and treat our distinguished guest to a simple meal tonight."
"Alright! Don't worry, Chief!"
Shi Linhu responded cheerfully, then turned and walked towards the back of the village.
Hearing this, Qian Renxue finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"A small animal? A simple meal?"
"Hmm...it seems that although the standard of living in this village is high, the people are indeed simple and honest."
"Alright, I'm a bit hungry too. It'll be good to try some wild game from this other world."
However, the very next second that this thought had just crossed her mind, she felt as if the ground beneath her feet was shaking.
"Boom! Boom!"
Qian Renxue subconsciously turned her head to look, but she froze on the spot after just one glance.
Behind Stone Village, a burly man named Shi Linhu was seen dragging a huge creature with one hand as he walked towards them!
It was a giant rhinoceros, fifty meters long, covered in crimson scales, and with two ferocious heads!
Although it was completely dead, its corpse still exuded a terrifying and malevolent aura!
The aura was so strong that even the six-winged angel martial soul within Qian Renxue's body trembled.
"This...this is..."
For a moment, Qian Renxue felt her scalp tingle, her teeth chattered wildly, and her voice trembled uncontrollably.
"This aura definitely surpasses that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast!"
"Even...even more than two hundred thousand years!"
In the Douluo Continent, 100,000-year-old soul beasts are overlords, creatures that even titled Douluo must avoid!
But now, this terrifying creature is being dragged by one hand and thrown on the ground like trash?
And they even call this thing a "little beast"?!
You call this a casual meal?!
"Thump!"
At this moment, Shi Linhu also threw the ancient remnant species descendant named Two-Headed Fire Rhinoceros heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Then, somewhat embarrassed, he scratched his head and gave Qian Renxue a simple, honest smile:
"Hehe, Miss Qian, I'm really sorry."
"I wasn't very lucky today. I didn't encounter any decent big ones, and I only managed to catch this young rhinoceros that hasn't grown up yet."
"The meat might be a little dry, but please don't mind, just have a bite."
"Not...not underage? You'll just have to make do with this?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue looked at the corpse, which was taller than the gate of the Papal Palace, and felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
She thought of her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, the peerless Douluo of level 99, who once spent nearly forty-nine days preparing, not just bathing and changing clothes, to hunt a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
Then look at this honest-looking uncle in front of me, who's saying he's had bad luck.
Qian Renxue was completely distraught. For some reason, looking at the villagers in front of her, she even felt a pang of inferiority...
...
Meanwhile, on the other side...
The Upper Realm, the Hehuan Sect.
Outside the mountain gate, beside a quiet pavilion.
Hu Liena had been kneeling here for three whole hours. Her originally delicate knees were now red and swollen, and her forehead was covered in sweat. But she dared not move at all, nor did she dare to use her soul power to protect herself. She could only rely on her willpower to endure it.
Because she knew that this was both a test and an opportunity.
Just when she was about to collapse from exhaustion.
"Giggle..."
A burst of silvery laughter suddenly rang out, followed by a fragrant breeze that made one's bones melt and one's body tingle.
Hu Liena forced herself to lift her head.
A stunningly beautiful young woman, dressed in a pink tulle dress and possessing an incredibly curvaceous figure, was gracefully walking towards them.
The sheer fabric was almost transparent, subtly outlining her breathtaking curves, and every smile and frown seemed capable of stealing one's soul.
"Oh, what a stubborn little girl."
After the beautiful young woman walked up to Hu Liena, she extended a delicately manicured finger and gently lifted Hu Liena's chin, her eyes sweeping over her with seductive allure.
"This allure is innate; she's a promising talent."
"Since you are so sincere, the manager of the outer sect will agree to meet you."
As she spoke, the beautiful young woman turned around, her slender waist swaying gently.
"Get up and come with me."
"Remember, once you enter the sect, don't look at what you shouldn't look at, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"Otherwise, they won't even know how they died."
"Yes! Thank you, senior!"
Hu Liena was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly struggled to her feet. Ignoring the sharp pain in her knees, she respectfully followed behind the beautiful young woman.
Along the way, Hu Liena was like a country bumpkin visiting a grand garden, her eyes wide with amazement.
The pavilions and towers within the Hehuan Sect were all made of pink jade, and red lanterns hung everywhere. The air was even filled with a sweet fragrance that made people blush.
And occasionally, one could see some scantily clad female disciples practicing some kind of dual cultivation technique with some handsome men in the flower bushes. The sight made Hu Liena blush and her heart race, and she quickly lowered her head.
"Um...senior..."
After walking for a long time, Hu Liena finally couldn't suppress her curiosity and cautiously asked:
"This junior dares to ask a question."
"I had the privilege of hearing about a place called the Primordial Celestial Court before."
"May I ask, senior, what kind of place is the Primordial Immortal Court? How does it compare to our Joyful Union Sect?"
Upon hearing the words "Primordial Celestial Court".
The beautiful young woman who had been striking seductive poses in front of him suddenly stopped in her tracks, her expression changing drastically!
