Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 619 - 594: Pua Tribe

The Ganges Truth Tree is extremely enormous. As Wang Xu gazed from afar, it seemed to fill the entire world.

It was like comparing a person to a star.

In front of the Ganges Truth Tree, Wang Xu appeared incredibly insignificant.

"Let's go, it won't be long before we can reach my 'Pua Clan'."

Over these decades of journeying together, Wang Xu gradually got to know the big man and others.

They all came from a tribe called "Pua Clan," which is just one of the many insignificant tribes in the Ganges Realm of Truth, overshadowed by far more powerful tribes.

Because of their weakness, Pua Clan can only reside on the fringes of the Ganges Realm of Truth.

The central region of the Ganges Realm of Truth is filled with immensely powerful tribes, only they can communicate with the Ganges Truth Tree and receive its blessings.

As for the Pua Clan on the fringes, they struggle to survive, and the younger generation of the tribe, once they come of age, often rely on going out to train to become stronger, as the tribe cannot provide them with enough cultivation resources, forcing them to fight and compete on their own.

But the consequence is that many young people in the tribe die, with only a few safely returning.

"The Elder said that the humanoid form is the most noble and sacred existence; be it fierce beasts or innate forms, they pale in comparison to the humanoid form, which is the most perfect creation between Heaven and Earth. There is nothing more perfect than this!"

The big man, Puahu Yu, described the humanoid form this way.

The other disciples and juniors nodded in agreement.

"Humanoid... most perfect?"

Wang Xu, who has lived for almost a Law Era, had never felt this way before.

But hearing humanoids being praised so highly, Wang Xu felt a slight sense of delight.

Yet he still harbored a trace of doubt in his heart.

In the Chaos, humanoid form is just an inconspicuous form. For example, the Zhenfu Domain Master, although humanoid in appearance, his unusual form and long tail differ greatly from what is defined as humanoid.

Even the six Supreme Controllers, although they appear as elderly humans, are different from the true humanoid form.

"Why is the Ganges Realm so eager for the humanoid form? Are humanoids really as good as they say?" Wang Xu wondered to himself.

Wang Xu learned not only these things.

The intangible powers of Heaven and Earth puzzled Wang Xu for over ten years, and this naturally became what concerned him the most.

"Are you talking about the Constant Spirit?" Puahu Yu seemed surprised by this. To them, the existence of the Constant Spirit is as common knowledge as the earth and sky.

But then he remembered that Wang Xu was a solitary spirit, who had never read any ancient books, so his bewilderment was understandable.

"Constant Spirit..." Wang Xu muttered.

"The Constant Spirit is the most fundamental power in Heaven and Earth. Only by absorbing the Constant Spirit can we survive, can we have enough vitality," Puahu Yu said. "The Constant Spirit is also the only power we can cultivate. If enough Constant Spirit is accumulated, one's power can become much stronger."

Wang Xu nodded.

The role of the Constant Spirit is similar to the Primordial Qi in Chaos.

Though they are called differently, they both sustain the lives of Life Spirit Cultivators, and accumulating enough can also make one much stronger.

"Have you ever practiced any Secret Technique?" Wang Xu asked.

"Secret Technique? You mean Secret Technique," Puahu Yu shook his head. "Secret Technique is a transcendent treasure, exceedingly rare. We're just a small tribe; how could we have the privilege to cultivate Secret Technique?"

"No privilege to cultivate Secret Technique?"

This time, it was Wang Xu who was astonished.

He had thought that in the Ganges Realm, Secret Techniques would be common, and that all Ganges life forms would cultivate to become very strong.

However, reality was different from what he imagined. Here, life forms hardly had any contact with Secret Techniques and had only heard about their existence but never practiced them.

"Wang Xu, if you want to cultivate Secret Technique, I'm afraid our Pua Clan will disappoint you." Puahu Yu said with a hint of pleading, "Such treasures as Secret Technique are only available in the 'Second Layer.' Our Third Layer tribe is too weak, and even if we obtained it, we wouldn't dare to cultivate it, or it would bring great disaster to the tribe!"

Third Layer, Second Layer.

This is the current regional status of the Ganges Realm of Truth.

The Third Layer refers to small tribes like the Pua Clan, living on the fringes, weak and belonging to the lowest level. The most obvious feature is that the clan leaders of these tribes are often in the Ancestor Realm, represented by the four-fingered "Ganges Ancient Spirit."

The Second Layer was created by the five-fingered "Ganges Emperor Spirit." The blessing they feel is much more intense and obvious than that of the marginal tribes, and their strength is naturally very strong.

The First Layer is said to be established by the legendary supreme beings, the only ones qualified to reside in the core area, almost relying on the Ganges Truth Tree. Every Ganges life form born in the First Layer is innately powerful, and occasionally "Innate Emperor Spirits," such transcendent beings, are born there.

Only tribes in the Second Layer are privileged to cultivate Secret Techniques.

Even if a tribe in the Third Layer managed to obtain a Secret Technique by chance, they wouldn't dare to cultivate it. Otherwise, if discovered by tribes from the Second or First Layer, armies would immediately besiege them and wipe out the entire tribe, seizing the Secret Technique!

This shows the level of rarity of Secret Techniques in the Ganges Realm, far beyond the reach of ordinary life forms.

"The rules of the Ganges Realm are truly so cruel," Wang Xu lamented upon learning this.

I thought that mutual devouring was cruel enough, but it turns out the beings of the Ganges Realm are even more cold-blooded than I imagined. For the sake of a secret technique, they can let the entire tribe be buried along with it.

Such cruelty, it is outrageous!

"Don't worry, I'm just asking, I'm not really planning to cultivate the secret technique."

When Wang Xu said this, Puahu Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Scattered spirits are rare as it is, let alone a scattered spirit with three fingers. If this were to take human form, its strength would surely increase significantly, possibly reaching the level of a clan leader. Such an individual is too precious, enough to elevate the strength of the Puahu tribe to a higher level; they absolutely cannot let him slip away!

They traveled for several more years, crossing deserts and oases, and finally saw signs of the tribe.

"Wang Xu, look! That's our Puahu tribe!" Puahu Yu exclaimed excitedly.

"Hu Yu! You Long! He Ya! Xu Milu!"

At this moment, someone within the tribe had already spotted them, running vehemently towards them.

Wang Xu gazed afar.

It was a group resembling a primal tribe, surrounded by crude wooden and stone palisades with sharpened spikes for defense against enemies. Though the palisade was nearly ten meters high, Wang Xu could see at a glance that it was too loose, and if a truly formidable enemy invaded, they would not be able to resist.

Running towards them was a youth clad in green, with a purple rune mark on the forehead similar to the other members of the Puahu tribe.

"Lie Mi!"

Several people waved vigorously, their expressions excited.

When tribespeople meet, naturally there is immense joy. When Lie Mi noticed Wang Xu, he couldn't help but exclaim, "This is a scattered spirit!"

"Yes, his name is Wang Xu. In the Fierce Beast Forest, he saved our lives!" Puahu Yu said.

"A scattered spirit... A scattered spirit with three fingers. His strength is already comparable to an elder, isn't it? If he takes human form, wouldn't he be on par with a clan leader?" Lie Mi looked Wang Xu up and down in astonishment.

"Lie Mi, what are you standing there for? Wang Xu is an esteemed guest and should not be neglected!" Puahu Yu feared that Lie Mi's scrutiny would anger Wang Xu and quickly spoke up.

Lie Mi also snapped out of it and quickly said, "Yes, yes, this esteemed guest, please follow me, I will take you to the Puahu tribe!"

Following the group into the Puahu tribe, Wang Xu's towering ice crystal body instantly drew the curious gazes of many within the tribe, and whispers spread.

They scrutinized Wang Xu while he observed them in return.

Like primitive humans, these "people" all wore fierce beast pelts to cover the essential parts, and the houses were built simply with the most common grass, crude and simplistic. Yet the people here were simple and honest, as if it were a peaceful utopia outside the dust of the world.

Whoosh!

A gust of strong wind blew by, and a dark shadow approached swiftly, arriving in front of Wang Xu.

"Haha! Am I seeing things? A scattered spirit?! And a three-finger scattered spirit at that!"

The exclamation came from an elderly man in exotic attire, whose dress reminded Wang Xu of the wizards in the primitive tribes back on Earth, almost identical.

"Greetings, Elder An Xi!"

Not only Puahu Yu and others but also other members of the tribe all bowed and paid respects, except for Wang Xu, whose Flame Eye gazed down at the elder, unmoved.

"Hu Yu, who might this be..." Elder An Xi asked eagerly.

"Reporting to Elder An Xi, his name is Wang Xu, a scattered spirit from the Fierce Beast Forest. When we ventured into the Fierce Beast Forest for training, it was thanks to his aid that we survived," Puahu Yu recounted truthfully.

"A scattered spirit from the Fierce Beast Forest?" Elder An Xi's eyes shone even brighter, "That's wonderful! This... Wang Xu, right? Would you be interested in joining our Puahu tribe? If you are willing to join, we are prepared to offer you the best cultivation resources, the finest truth weapons, and also..."

"You mentioned... truth weapons?" Wang Xu raised his hand to interrupt Elder An Xi.

Currently, if there was anything he was most sensitive to, it was just two words—truth.

He had come to the Ganges Realm to seek the Seed of Truth, and only by obtaining it could he potentially create a truth weapon to combat the impending war between Chaos and the Ganges.

So when Elder An Xi mentioned truth weapons, Wang Xu immediately inquired.

"Oh? You're interested in truth weapons? That's great! Our tribe possesses three truth weapons, and if you're willing to join, I can have an extra one forged for you. Of course, if you wish, I can give you my truth weapon!" As he spoke, Elder An Xi waved his hand, and the tribespeople behind him brought forward a large bone stick.

This bone stick was about two meters long, as thick as an ordinary human body, and emanating an indescribable aura, which captivated Wang Xu.

"Is this a truth weapon?"

Wang Xu grabbed the bone stick from the tribesperson's hands; its weight was immensely heavy. Had Wang Xu's power not currently rivaled the Saint Venerable Realm, he would likely need significant strength to wield it.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Wang Xu swung it around freely a few times, but did not feel anything particularly special about it.

"Elder An Xi, I can join your Puahu tribe, but I want to ask you a question. I hope you can answer honestly," Wang Xu said.

"Really? That's wonderful! Don't mention just one question, even if it's ten questions, it's no problem!" Elder An Xi was so elated at Wang Xu's willingness to join the Puahu tribe that he almost jumped for joy.

"I want to ask you, do you know about the 'Seed of Truth'?" (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote with your recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
