"The Wilderness!"
Yun Mu let out a short sigh and looked at Meng Lin with a complicated expression. She then said peacefully, "Milk baby, the Wildlands is not just big!
It has a radius of millions of miles and no end in sight.
"In the Wilderness, it is difficult for us humans to survive. Only after we reach adulthood and awaken our star beasts can we have the power to fight against the beasts. However …"
Originally, Menglin thought that this might be a world where martial arts were respected. However, after listening to Grandpa Yun Mu's description, Menglin realized that he had underestimated the status of martial arts in this world.
To be exact, this was a world where martial arts were the most important.
Not to mention the world outside the Wilderness, just in the Wilderness, humans could only rely on their tribal camps to defend themselves.
The reason why every tribe could defend themselves and not be annihilated by the powerful beasts was mainly because of the star spirits!
The star spirits were some special spirit life forms in the world. They were born with the ability to communicate with the stars in the sky. After receiving human sacrifices, some of them naturally became the guardians of the tribe and could help adult humans awaken their star beasts.
Most of the star spirits did not have a physical form and were similar to some spiritual beings.
However, there were also some extremely powerful special star spirits that could take form.
Of course, these star spirits that formed the human tribes in the Wilderness were some very weak star spirits. They needed human sacrifices to become stronger.
Humans could be attacked by the beasts when they went out to gather herbs or hunt. Because these terrifying giant beasts limited the range of human activities, the weak human tribes were lacking in resources.
To a Wilderness tribe, powerful warriors were their lifeline!
Without powerful warriors, even with the protection of the star spirits, they would starve to death due to the lack of food.
The Gigantic Tripod Tribe that Menglin and Yunke were in was unfortunately a small tribe without any high-level warriors.
Warriors were divided into nine levels!
Level one, level two, and level three warriors were considered low-level warriors. Level four, level five, and level six warriors were considered mid-level warriors.
As for high-level warriors, they had to be at least level seven.
Currently, the Gigantic Tripod Tribe was in a state where there was a lack of manpower. There was not a single high-level warrior.
If the Gigantic Tripod Star Spirit was not exceptionally powerful, the tribe would have been annihilated by the beasts outside.
Menglin pestered Grandpa Yun Mu to tell him a lot. As his understanding of the Wilderness deepened, he became fearful and amazed.
Surprisingly, this world was just like the fantasy movies on Earth. It was bizarre.
The fear was that humans were so weak that they could be described as struggling at death's door.
In Grandpa Yun Mu's words, once a human reached adulthood, they could offer sacrifices to the tribe's Star Spirit. Through the Star Spirit, they could communicate with thousands of stars and awaken Star Beasts.
Only after awakening a star beast could one be considered a true warrior. Only then would one have the qualifications to fight against Direbeasts. One would be called a star beast warrior!
However, it was very difficult for a low-level warrior to win against a powerful beast.
Some ferocious beasts could only be dealt with by high-level warriors.
"Grandpa Mu, I will definitely become a high-level warrior when I grow up. I will definitely engrave the name of the Big Tripod Tribe on the Holy Pillar. I …"
"Hahaha!" Before Menglin could finish, Grandpa Yun Mu let out a hearty laugh.
"Lin 'er, you're ambitious. I look forward to seeing you lead our Gigantic Tripod Tribe to fame in the Wilderness."
After leaving the stone house, Grandpa Yun Mu's eyes dimmed.
It was extremely difficult to engrave the name of the Gigantic Tripod Tribe on the Holy Pillar.
The Gigantic Tripod Tribe had been working hard for this goal for thousands of years. However, they were still struggling on the edge of life and death.
There were so many human tribes in the Wilderness that it was impossible to count them all.
However, only a few extremely powerful ancient tribes could engrave their names on the Holy Pillar.
These ancient tribes were the cornerstones of the human race in the Wilderness. Among them, there were many high-level star beast warriors. There were even powerful existences that surpassed a level-9 star beast warrior.
These ancient tribes had a deep foundation. They never had to worry about food. They even had cultivation techniques that they exchanged from the Holy City.
Menglin only regained his senses after Grandpa Yun Mu left.
He was too shocked. He was shocked by what Grandpa Yun Mu had said about the Holy City and the Holy Pillar.
The Holy City stood in the center of the Wilderness. It was the holy land in the hearts of all the humans in the Wilderness. The Holy Pillar was the symbol of the Holy City. It was the faith of the humans in the Wilderness.
According to Grandpa Yunmu, any human tribe in the Wildlands would be recognized by the Holy City as long as they brought a Class 9 vicious beast's skull to the Holy City to offer sacrifices to the Holy Pillar. That tribe would be recognized by the Holy Pillar and receive the protection of the Holy City.
Such a tribe was called the Holy Pillar Tribe.
Only the Holy Pillar Tribe was qualified to pay a certain price to exchange for cultivation techniques in the Holy City.
Cultivation techniques not only allowed star beast warriors to cultivate systematically, but also allowed them to absorb the energy of heaven and earth at a faster rate to strengthen their own strength.
In other words, with a cultivation technique, a tribe could undoubtedly become stronger very quickly. The number of high-level warriors would increase rapidly.
Some of the more precious cultivation techniques could even allow a warrior at the pinnacle of level-9 to advance to a higher legendary level.
"Hehe, the Holy City is like the central government on Earth. Those human tribes are the local forces. I reckon that the Holy Pillar Tribe is equivalent to a municipality or a provincial city in Hua Xia. It's almost a prefecture-level city. Sadly, the Raushezi Big Tripod Tribe that I'm in might not even be a county-level city."
Menglin, who had a slight understanding of the structure of the humans in the Wilderness, was still a little confused.
From Grandpa Yun Mu, he finally understood the basic division of power.
That was, humans would become star beast warriors after awakening the power of star beasts when they reached adulthood. Star beast warriors were divided into level-1 to level-9.
However, what was the deal with star spirits?
What was the deal with awakening the power of star beasts?
Through sacrifice?
Humans could use the star spirits as an intermediary to obtain some kind of blessing similar to the power of stars?
Wasn't this a little too fantastical?
Menglin felt that this wasn't very reliable.
Furthermore, he was only four years old. He was still a baby. What could such a small baby do?
Save the Big Tripod Tribe?
Stop bullsh * tting!
It seemed that humans in the Wilderness became adults at the age of 12. However, there were still eight years before that age.
Menglin, who had read many novels on Earth, knew a little about it. All the main characters who transmigrated would have some kind of heaven-defying cheat. However, what about his own cheat?
Just a little stronger?
What was the use of that?
Also, he was already four years old. Wasn't his penis a little too small?
Would it be small when he reached adulthood?
