Chapter 838: Chapter 837: [Heart-Wrenching and Impatient]

[PS: The first update today is here! Please subscribe!!!]

Desolate Stone Village has an unfortunate story, a mysterious legend, this cruel inheritance of Bloodline Power is cursed by the Demon God, and no one can eliminate it; it is an imprint of Curse Power within the blood. Once, Desolate Stone Village was guarded by Shi Hu, but now it is in ruins. Some people tried to break this Curse Power through cultivation, which led to the overnight death of thousands, and since then, no one dared to embark on the Cultivation Path. The only choice was to live a life of farming and hunting, because nobody wants to bring about the innocent deaths of loved ones and friends due to their own actions. It’s too selfish and irresponsible; nobody wants to endure such pain, preferring a life of birth, old age, sickness, and death with discipline. The cost of breaking the Curse Power made the villagers of Desolate Stone Village generations fearful of Cultivation Path.

Over a hundred villagers from Desolate Stone Village unknowingly stood behind Ye Tianchen and the old village chief, Grandpa Shi. The old village chief might genuinely not have noticed, but as a Martial Artist, Ye Tianchen naturally felt the arrival of these hundred villagers and sensed their dissatisfaction and anger.

It’s conceivable how cruel this Bloodline Power inheritance could be. Those who survive have never enjoyed parental love and often become orphans at birth. Moreover, they must be prepared that after marriage, upon their child’s birth, they or their spouse might die; such sorrow is too painful and suppresses the pain in their hearts, lasting a lifetime. This pain is worse than living death; sometimes, the living are often less fortunate than the dead.

”Brother, can you feel the dissatisfaction in our hearts?”

”Can you understand the anger in our hearts?”

”We must cultivate, we must definitely cultivate!”

”We can’t continue to sit and wait for death like this; if we go on like this, it’s just waiting to die. Why not gamble everything?”

”Either way, death is inevitable, and each of us bears immense pain in our hearts. How many days and nights have we suffered under this agony? Is there any meaning in living like this?”

”Yes, from the moment each of us was born, we either lost a father or a mother, or lost both parents at once, becoming an orphan forever without parental love. Everyone has suffered such hardships, then as we start our own families, we must face the worry of losing the love of our children upon their birth. It’s too painful, and Desolate Stone Village cannot continue like this. If it does, Desolate Stone Village will eventually be buried in history.”

”So, we’ve decided to let these five children in the village cultivate, even if it means all of us dying overnight, as long as they succeed in cultivation and grow to break the Curse Power, we will die without regret!”

The villagers standing behind Ye Tianchen and the old village chief spoke with excitement. Ye Tianchen could feel their determination to break the curse, their refusal to continue bearing pain even if it means death; they’re too excited, too urgent, too unstoppable. Their will to survive and no longer endure grief is moving.

By today, Desolate Stone Village only has over a hundred people left, and merely five children remain. If things continue, when these hundred adults die, only five child disciples will be left. Because not every person can bear the fear of death, the anguish of leaving their child lonely and helpless, or have the courage to let their child be born, facing death themselves.

”Brother, this is the determination of all the villagers of Desolate Stone Village; we hope you can help us!” The old village chief sincerely looked at Ye Tianchen and said.

”Since you’ve all made your decision, from tomorrow morning, I’ll teach these five children the Cultivation Method. I don’t understand the Bloodline Power within them, nor do I know if what happened 100,000 years ago will happen again. I can only do my best, and you’ll need to prepare mentally!” Ye Tianchen said seriously.

”Brother Ye, we thank you, we appreciate you. For you to impart the Cultivation Method to these five children is a tremendous gift to us. You are a benefactor to Desolate Stone Village, and we’ve chosen this path, bearing such consequences!”

”Yes, tonight we’ll prepare coffins, we’ll arrange for funeral matters; this represents our will and determination.”

Looking at these hundred villagers from Desolate Stone Village, feeling their sincerity, sensing their pain beyond measure, Ye Tianchen also strengthened his resolve. He must help the villagers of Desolate Stone Village; even if he lacks the power to break the Curse Power, he must do everything possible to prevent the tragedy of 100,000 years ago from happening.

If these five children start cultivation, and all over one hundred adults in Desolate Stone Village die, it will be a tragedy for the village, and it would become Ye Tianchen’s biggest burden of responsibility. That night, Ye Tianchen was unable to sleep; he was pondering, his mind filled with questions about the Bloodline Power of Desolate Stone Village. Tomorrow morning, he must teach the last remaining five children of Desolate Stone Village cultivation. What will happen?

The night was cool like water, Ye Tianchen lay on the roof of the thatched hut, looking at the moon in the sky, with a hint of anxiety on his face. He didn’t know how to teach these five child disciples cultivation. Although, with courage, determination, and great fortune, he had obtained the ”Yijin Jing,” reputed to be the first cultivation scripture of the Martial Arts World, and even acquired the supreme treasure, the ”Holy Heaven Prison,” but in terms of cultivation, across the entire Martial Arts Great World, he was just a small character. He hadn’t yet become a powerful figure, and there were still many doubts he had regarding the Cultivation Path. Besides, he had never taught disciples before and really didn’t know how to teach others the cultivation method.

Clearly, Ye Tianchen couldn’t simply pass down the scripture of ”Yijin Jing” directly to these five children. These five children had never cultivated before and were almost like ordinary mortals. Teaching them the Yijin Jing would only lead to their reckless cultivation, which is extremely dangerous. Moreover, each person has different talents and strengths. Choosing the Divine Arts most suitable for their cultivation is the best and fastest path. These are the basics that Ye Tianchen naturally thought of. Realizing this made him even more troubled. He had just arrived at Desolate Stone Village and knew very little about the five children, even his knowledge about Little Shitou was limited. What strengths do these children have, what talents, suitable to cultivate which kind of Divine Arts within the Yijin Jing—these are things Ye Tianchen would need to consider and observe. More importantly, what will happen when he starts teaching the five children cultivation tomorrow? What about those villagers?

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen mobilized a surge of Martial Arts True Power, condensing a claw behind him to grab. A silhouette dashed out from behind him, glared at Ye Tianchen fiercely and said, ”You knew it was me, yet you attacked? Do you want to die?”

”How would I know it was you? What if it was an assassin from the Blood Killing Organization? I obviously had to make the first move!” Ye Tianchen said lightly.

”Hey, is this how you repay kindness? I, Shuanger, have helped you Ye Tianchen a lot, yet you treat me like this now?” Shuanger glared fiercely at Ye Tianchen and said.

”I didn’t hurt you, did I? Still want to make a fuss?” Ye Tianchen asked gloomily.

”Insensitive fool, I am really too lazy to bother with you!”

Though Shuanger said she was too lazy to bother with Ye Tianchen, she didn’t leave. Instead, she sat next to Ye Tianchen, looked at the moon, and couldn’t help but mutter to herself, ”I heard from my master that some planets in this Martial Arts Great World are naturally formed, but some are man-made...”

”Hm? Man-made? Impossible!” Ye Tianchen was taken aback and asked in disbelief.

”How long have you been in the Ancient Martial World? Earth used to be a place of cultivation prosperity. Among the entire Ancient Martial World, aside from the ever-flourishing Emperor Star, Earth at its peak was probably the only one that could compare. This Martial Arts Great World is so mysterious, with too many unknowns and so much to explore. I really want to know...” Shuanger spoke, revealing a longing expression.

”There must be some story behind this, right? Tell me about it!” Ye Tianchen asked with a smile.

”Hmph, considering how cold you were to me just now, I’m in a bad mood and don’t want to talk!” Shuanger snorted, pretending to be angry.

”If you don’t want to say, then forget it, I’ll go back to sleep. There are a lot of things to do early tomorrow!” Ye Tianchen stood up, preparing to leap down.

”You... stop, I’ll tell you, alright? Really, you are so lacking in humor...” Shuanger eventually mumbled, her voice smaller than a mosquito.

Ye Tianchen looked at Shuanger, somewhat stunned, making Shuanger want to punch him. She was genuinely unsure if this guy had no emotional intelligence or was just plain dumb. She was clearly pretending to be angry, hoping Ye Tianchen would say a few nice words to coax her. Yet, the guy actually turned and left, almost exploding her lungs with rage.

”Speak!” Ye Tianchen sat down again beside Shuanger and said.

Shuanger gave Ye Tianchen a look, somewhat resigned, letting out a sigh before speaking, ”I only heard my master mention this once. During the Ancient Times, when this Martial Arts Great World was just forming, it was pitch black, with no planets or stars. The first to appear were the Ancient Alien Race, incredibly powerful, born from their Original Land. They developed and gradually expanded, claiming territories...” (to be continued.
