I've Been AFK for Ten Million Years-Chapter 246: Would you be willing to stay in our tribe?
Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Would you be willing to stay in our tribe?
"Weak? Courage!"
Ren Changsheng forced a bitter smile; he was no Primordial Innate human. Besides, even if Ren Changsheng could transform his body to such a size, he didn’t fancy strutting around as a giant in the Primordial era.
"Come over, follow me back to the tribe. There are many monsters in these wild mountains, and with your small frame, they would eat you straight away!"
Although the two Innate human tribesmen looked down on Ren Changsheng’s feebleness, they weren’t about to stand by and watch him get eaten by monsters. They grabbed Ren Changsheng like picking up a chick and threw him over their shoulders. With the huge python’s corpse in tow, they strode out of the wild mountains.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
As the two Innate humans walked, the ground trembled beneath them. Countless little monsters scattered away where they passed.
Ren Changsheng even suspected
that the reason they made their bodies so huge was to intimidate these little monsters, and finally, after a bumpy journey, they stepped out of the wild mountains.
Outside the wild mountains.
There were forests again, but the ancient trees here were somewhat smaller. Additionally, smoke was rising among the trees, the cooking smoke of the human tribe.
"It’s Pin and Mu returning!"
"Such a huge python, Pin and Mu are truly powerful!"
...
As they entered the smaller forest, excited voices broke out, and from a distance, Ren Changsheng saw figures coming out to meet them.
These people looked quite more normal.
Many of the women, looking at Pin and Mu, had admiration in their eyes, and Pin and Mu, receiving these adoring gazes, appeared even more proud.
"This is intentional!"
On Mu’s shoulder, Ren Changsheng thought to himself that it must be deliberate. Their purpose was to attract the attention of these women by not shrinking their bodies.
"Pin, the Priest has summoned you!"
At this moment, a man came up to them and said.
"Priest!"
Pin and Mu’s expression shifted subtly. After a moment, their bodies began to shrink to a few zhang in size. Although still large, it was much less so compared to the original hundred zhang, and Ren Changsheng was able to get off Mu’s shoulder.
"Follow me to meet the Priest; he will arrange your lodging. If you already have a tribe, then return to it!"
Mu said to Ren Changsheng.
"Thank you!"
Ren Changsheng bowed his hands in thanks.
Shortly after, Ren Changsheng followed them toward where the Priest was located, curiously looking around on the way.
Is this the Innate human race?
Initially, Ren Changsheng thought everyone belonged to the Innate human race, but soon he realized that there weren’t many Innate humans among the tribe!
Apart from Pin and Mu, Ren Changsheng didn’t see other Innate humans. Moreover, he felt a different aura from these people, the aura of the Shaman race.
The alliance between humans and the Shaman race naturally led to intermarriage, with many human Disciples carrying Shaman bloodlines, and the Shaman Disciples naturally also carrying human bloodlines.
One quarter of an hour later.
The two appeared before a small cave dwelling.
"Greetings to the Priest!"
Pin and Mu stood outside the dwelling, respectfully calling out.
"Come in!"
"Cough, cough..."
A light coughing sound came from within. Upon hearing this voice, they hurriedly entered the dwelling, and Ren Changsheng followed suit.
Inside the cave dwelling.
An elder sat upon a beast-skin; his aura seemed somewhat weak, yet just by glancing at him, Ren Changsheng’s eyes instantly brimmed with intense light.
Very strong!
The elder’s aura was very strong, at the very least, beyond that of a fifth-rank Primordial God.
"Mr. Priest, are you feeling any better?"
Mu urgently inquired.
Looking at the Priest, anger was evident in Mu’s eyes; clearly, the Priest’s aura was so weak due to sustained injuries!
"Mu, it’s good that the two of you are back!"
The Priest nodded subtly at the pair, then as if something sprung to mind, he suddenly said in a heavy tone: "Be cautious, you two; the Demonic race has been quite restless lately, and many of our Human Tribe have been captured. Instruct your disciples to venture out less frequently!"
The Priest spoke.
"Yes!"
Mu and Pin promptly responded.
"Eh!"
But at this moment, the Priest’s eyes fell upon Ren Changsheng, and as this person’s gaze settled, Ren Changsheng felt his entire body turn transparent, as if all secrets were laid bare under those cold eyes.
"A person from the small world!"
Light exploded in the Priest’s eyes. With just one look, he had discerned Ren Changsheng’s identity as coming from the small world.
"You..."
Ren Changsheng’s eyes flickered faintly, and, within him, the Divine Power of the Primordial Gods began to stir secretly.
Ren Changsheng couldn’t be sure whether the Priest in front of him might strike.
"Mr. Priest, this youngster was found by us in the Wasteland. We were afraid he’d be devoured by monsters, so we brought him along!"
Mu hastily explained.
"Devoured by monsters?"
The Priest swept a glance over the two, his eyes filled with a strange look. Devoured by monsters? Ren Changsheng here was a seventh-rank Primordial God, far stronger than Mu and Pin. Neither Mu nor Pin had been devoured by monsters, so how could Ren Changsheng?
"People from the small world, it has been many years since one has appeared in the Primordial Wilderness!"
Something seemed to come to the Priest’s mind as he looked into Ren Changsheng’s eyes, his gaze suddenly becoming fervent, which filled Ren Changsheng with suspicion and uncertainty.
"What’s your name?"
As if recalling something, the Priest asked Ren Changsheng in a deep voice.
"I am Ren Changsheng!"
Ren Changsheng slightly bowed his hands in greeting.
"You need not worry. The human tribes of the small world and those of the primordial wilderness are all of the same Human Tribe. When Nüwa, the Saint, created our humanity, she sent a part of the Innate Human Tribe into the small world. However, due to the rapid pace of the Time Law in the small world, you no longer carry the aura of the Innate Human Tribe!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, the Priest said solemnly.
"I see!"
Ren Changsheng understood in his heart. No wonder there were so many human tribes in the small world; they were indeed originated from the Innate Human Tribe.
"Our Tianyuan tribe belongs to the tribes on the outskirts of impoverished realms, Ren Changsheng, would you be willing to stay within our tribe? We are willing to offer you countless resources for your cultivation!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, the Priest suddenly said with sincerity.
"I want to know, why do you wish to keep me?"
Ren Changsheng’s gaze fell upon the Priest. Although the Priest was very strong, Ren Changsheng was no pushover either; if they really fought, Ren Changsheng was confident he could extricate himself unharmed!
"Because of your potential!"
Looking at Ren Changsheng, the Priest said in a solemn voice.
"Potential!"
Ren Changsheng paused slightly, potential? Could it be that the human tribes from the small world had even greater potential than those Innate Human Tribes of the primordial wilderness? Ren Changsheng found that hard to believe!
