In a simulated life scenario, how do you defy fate and change your destiny every time?

"The Stone Turtle Tribe?"

Lu Yuan silently kept Feng Huai'an's words in mind.

If he encounters a few fools while hunting in the mountains, he wouldn't mind collecting some interest first.

"Xiao Yuan, this is your first time hunting in the mountains, you must be extra careful..."

Feng Huai'an spoke frankly and explained to Lu Yuan in detail what dangers he might encounter in the deep mountains, and which areas were dangerous zones that he could not enter.

The wilderness is teeming with poisonous insects, snakes, and ants, and one may sometimes encounter poisonous fog and miasma.

When Lu Yuan is accidentally injured or bitten by a poisonous insect, what herbs can he pick to treat the wound and detoxify?

After Lu Yuan memorized them one by one.

Feng Huai'an then took out a hunting knife and a heavy bow with ox horn and handed them to Lu Yuan.

This hunting knife is broad, sharp, and well-forged. It can be used for slashing, cutting, or close combat. It is clearly a rare item.

The heavy bow made from the horn and sinew of the mythical beast, the savage bull.

The bow's surface is also covered with intricate patterns, radiating a terrifying and chilling aura.

"This bow is a rare treasure made by one of our ancestors after hunting a powerful beast."

"Simply draw the bowstring, and you can use your mental power to visualize the arrow, which can not only injure the enemy's physical body, but also damage their soul!"

"Therefore, only Qi cultivators at the Visualization Realm can wield this bow!"

Feng Huai'an handed the large bow to Lu Yuan.

"Xiao Yuan, you can try it out and see how powerful it is."

Lu Yuan didn't stand on ceremony and took the heavy ox-horn bow.

He then aimed at a small hill about a mile away and slowly drew back his heavy bow.

As soon as I tried to visualize the arrow, a metallic aura condensed on the bowstring, forming an incomparably sharp long arrow.

The long arrow was formed entirely from pure spiritual power and metallic energy, exuding a sharp and deadly aura.

Its arrowheads are sharp enough to pierce through metal and stone!
next moment.

The bow shook like a thunderbolt.

With a whoosh, the long arrow shot out like lightning.

The bowstring is drawn and the arrow is released, arriving in an instant!
Since entering the realm of contemplation, Lu Yuan's five senses have become far stronger than those of ordinary people.

He can see even a tiny ant several miles away clearly.

But in Lu Yuan's line of sight.

The small hill a mile away was pierced by the arrow almost instantly and exploded!
"It seems my strength wasn't concentrated enough, otherwise the arrow would have just pierced through the mountain."

But Lu Yuan was not happy; instead, he frowned.

Followed by.

He repeatedly drew the bowstring, constantly improving his archery techniques and skills.

I stopped when I felt a little tired.

But Feng Huai'an stood to the side, looking at Lu Yuan with an extremely strange gaze, as if he were looking at a monster.

It should be noted that although this heavy bow has amazing destructive power, it consumes a lot of mental energy every time an arrow is condensed.

Even with his cultivation level, he could only barely fire ten arrows.

But Lu Yuan shot more than a dozen arrows in a row, and not only did he not run out of energy, he also seemed to have plenty of strength left.

He knew that Lu Yuan was at the peak of Qi Refining and could not be judged by ordinary standards.

But isn't this mental strength a bit too terrifying?
After learning about Lu Yuan's true combat strength, Feng Huai'an was finally relieved.

But before Lu Yuan left...

With a slight thought, Feng Huai'an produced another bone ring out of thin air and solemnly handed it to Lu Yuan.

“Xiao Yuan, it’s very inconvenient for you to carry so much stuff when you go hunting in the mountains.”

"This bone ring was also left by our ancestors. It has its own space inside, which can be used to store various items."

"Thank you, Grandpa Chief."

Lu Yuan accepted the bone ring without hesitation.

Although his simulated mark can also be used to store a large number of items.

But with this bone ring as cover, it won't arouse the suspicion of other Qi cultivators.

……

Lianyun Mountains.

A young man in animal-patterned robes, with a hunting knife at his waist and a heavy bow on his back, swiftly traversed the jungle.

Although the wilderness is barren, there are many birds and beasts in the mountains and forests. Occasionally, you can see a mother rabbit leading a group of baby rabbits foraging in the grass.

Lu Yuan glanced at them briefly, then quietly bypassed the group of wild rabbits and continued walking into the deep mountains.

Although the people of the Great Wilderness live by hunting, they believe in the principle of not harming newborn animals and strictly forbid shooting young animals and pregnant beasts.

This is not only an ancient philosophy passed down from our ancestors, but also the survival rule of the Great Wilderness.

Only by taking resources in moderation and using them sparingly can we leave enough resources for future generations.

Lu Yuan moved with incredible speed, making even the rugged and treacherous jungle seem like flat ground.

Not long after.

He then ventured into the deep mountains.

This place is secluded and lush, with ancient trees reaching for the sky.

Compared to the surrounding area, which is often filled with birdsong and insect chirps, this place is eerily quiet.

Just standing on the edge, you can feel a chilling sense of danger!
The deep mountains are home to many ferocious beasts and exotic birds. These beasts have begun to develop intelligence and are extremely powerful, making them more than ten times more difficult to deal with than ordinary wild animals.

If ordinary hunters were to set foot in this place, no matter how many there were, they would all be wiped out.

But Lu Yuan doesn't need to worry about that.

Although there are many strange beasts in the deep mountains, most of them are only at the Qi Refining stage and can hardly pose a great threat to him.

As Lu Yuan ventured deeper into the mountains, his brows began to furrow.

This area, spanning a hundred miles, is the hunting grounds of the Great Wind Tribe.

Logically, there should be quite a few strange beasts.

But after wandering around for a long time, he didn't find a single trace of the strange beast, or even a single cub!
“Something’s not right; it shouldn’t be this quiet in the deep mountains.”

Lu Yuan looked around and could clearly see everything within a half-mile radius. Finally, he found a blood-stained white hair in the grass.

"This hair is soft and short, belonging to the downy fur of a young animal."

"But it was stained red with blood, which means someone was hunting young animals!"

Lu Yuan's expression gradually turned ugly.

The people of the Great Wilderness lived by hunting.

If they can't hunt enough prey next year, most of the tribespeople may even have trouble getting enough to eat.

This practice of hunting young animals is essentially the root of the Jue Da Feng tribe!
The Dafeng tribe would not engage in such short-sighted behavior that would dig its own grave.

Moreover, apart from Lu Yuan and Feng Huai'an, no one in the tribe has the strength to venture into these deep mountains.

In this way, the other party's identity is already obvious.

"The bloodstains on the fur are still wet, which means the other party is still nearby. I just need to catch up and take a look."

Lu Yuan took the heavy bow off his back and followed the trail.

As the distance gets closer.

He could find a wisp of blood-stained down every few dozen steps, and eventually, he could even see clear footprints on the ground.

"Once we cross this mountain, we'll reach the hunting grounds of the Stone Turtle Tribe."

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes, a strong killing intent surging within him.

But right now.

Suddenly, a voice came from not far ahead.

Lu Yuan concealed his aura, slowed his pace, and swiftly climbed an ancient tree like a nimble ape, gaining a clear view of what lay ahead.

Two middle-aged men dressed in animal-patterned robes were seen counting their spoils in an open space.

On the chest of their animal-patterned robes was a pattern of a stone tortoise carrying a mountain.

This is clearly the totem symbol of the Stone Turtle Tribe!
"The chieftain said we must bring back ten exotic beasts this time, so it seems we'll have to go and fight four more."

A man with a horse-like face said in a deep voice.

"Elder, we have repeatedly entered the territory of the Great Wind Tribe to poach during this period, and we have not even spared the young animals. What if that old man Feng Huai'an finds out?"

Another bald, burly man was somewhat worried. Although Feng Huai'an was old, his combat strength was terrifying; he could fight three opponents at once without being at a disadvantage.

If the two tribes were to completely break off relations, it would be no laughing matter.

"So what if he finds out?"

The horse-faced man snorted coldly, his face showing disdain.

"The Great Wind Tribe's heritage is incomplete, which is why Feng Huai'an has been stuck in the visualization realm for a full thirty years."

"But our clan possesses a complete method, and now that the clan leader is about to break through, we need a large number of exotic beasts and resources."

"Once the clan leader becomes a Qi Refiner at the Spirit Embryo Realm, what will Feng Huai'an be then?"

Upon hearing this, the bald, burly man was overjoyed and no longer had any worries.

However, he seemed to remember something and asked softly.

"Elder, I've heard that the Great Wind Tribe has produced a Qi Refining genius in recent years, who has already entered the Qi Refining Realm at the young age of three. I wonder if this news is true?"

"That's true, but it's a pity he was born in the Great Wind Tribe, so he'll never amount to anything in his life."

The horse-faced man said dismissively.

It's easy to get started with Qi cultivation, but reaching perfection is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, the poor study literature, while the rich practice martial arts.

Besides talent, resources are also of paramount importance in the path of Qi cultivation.

The Great Wind Tribe was dirt poor, and no one knew when that so-called genius would be able to reach the realm of visualization.

After setting aside their prey, the two headed back to the territory of the Great Wind Tribe to hunt again.

Lu Yuan concealed himself with the dense foliage, then held his breath, drew his bow, and aimed at the strongest man, the horse-faced man.

When the two sides were only a mile apart, Lu Yuan drew his bowstring taut and fired an arrow with all his might.

"call out!"

A sharp, piercing sound of wind breaking suddenly rang out.

A golden arrow pierced the sky, shooting towards the horse-faced man like a streak of light.

Its speed is so fast that it has exceeded the limits of what the naked eye can perceive.

The horse-faced man didn't even see what it was before he groaned and went back to sleep.

After all, he was only at the late stage of Qi Refining, and Lu Yuan had a plan to take advantage of the situation.

With his strength, how could he possibly dodge that arrow?
"Great Elder!"

It all happened so fast.

When the bald, burly man saw the horse-faced man suddenly collapse and die, he was filled with fear and helplessness.

How could a master in the late stage of Qi Refining die like this?
It was at this moment that the bald, burly man finally saw clearly what had just flown over.

A long, golden arrow was stuck between the eyebrows of the horse-faced man.

The sharp arrowhead pierced through the skull and exited from the back of the head.

However, the horse-faced man's skull was too hard, and the arrow shaft got stuck in his head.

"It didn't penetrate?"

Lu Yuan stood on the tree watching this scene, looking slightly surprised.

With his current strength, he could easily overturn a mountain with a single swing of his arm.

This heavy bow made from the sinews and bones of a strange beast, when fully drawn, can easily pierce through a Qi Refining cultivator in the Visualization Realm.

Moreover, he had used all his strength in order to kill with one blow, without holding back.

But even so.

They still couldn't penetrate the horse-faced man's head, which shows just how hard his skull was!

"That's right. The Qi cultivators of the Stone Turtle Tribe meditate on the Stone Turtle Carrying the Mountain Diagram year-round, making their bones as hard as a rock."

"And the skull is the hardest part of the human body, so it's normal that I couldn't penetrate it."

"Not to mention, the ancestors of the Stone Turtle tribe are suspected to be related to the legendary Bixi."

Lu Yuan pondered to himself.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the wilderness is barren and lacks resources.

However, many tribes actually have a significant history.

Although the Stone Turtle Tribe is only a small tribe of more than three thousand people, their ancestors were descendants of the Bixi!

Bixi, also known as Baxia, is the sixth son of the true dragon.

This beast resembles a tortoise and is adept at carrying heavy objects, often used to support ancient steles.

In ancient times, people erected monuments and wrote biographies for sages and emperors by placing huge stone tablets on the back of the tortoise, hoping that by relying on its divine power, it could endure for a long time and last for thousands of years.

Therefore, the divine tortoise carrying the stele is also regarded as a symbol of longevity and good fortune.

However, by the time it was passed down to the Stone Turtle tribe, it had already fallen into ruin and had become a stone turtle carrying a mountain.

"So you're the Qi Refining genius of the Great Wind Tribe?"

When the bald, burly man saw Lu Yuan appear, he immediately understood his identity.

But he never expected it.

Lu Yuan looks very young, with a childlike innocence and naivety on his face, but he is so ruthless and vicious!

Without uttering a sound, he delivered the fatal blow!
Lu Yuan didn't say anything more.

But under the terrified gaze of the bald, burly man, he drew his bow and nocked an arrow once more.

The bald, burly man turned to flee.

But as soon as he turned around, before he could make a move, he felt a chilling killing intent coming from behind.

Immediately afterwards, I experienced excruciating pain in my right leg.

He looked down.

A golden arrow pierced through his right knee, forcing him to kneel and pinning him to the ground!
"What kind of monster is this?!"

The bald, burly man was in excruciating pain, cold sweat pouring down his face, and despair filled his heart.

In the blink of an eye.

One of the two Qi cultivators from the Stone Turtle tribe died and the other was injured; they had no power to resist from beginning to end.

Lu Yuan killed Qi Refining cultivators as easily as killing chickens and dogs, without even changing his breathing!
Tell me about the Stone Turtle tribe, and I can give you a quick death.

Seeing that the bald man was still struggling, Lu Yuan shot another arrow, pinning his left leg to the ground.

"You are indeed very strong, but there are no cowards in the Stone Turtle Tribe. Don't even think about making me betray the tribe!"

The bald, burly man spat out a mouthful of blood and vowed never to yield.

Without wasting words, Lu Yuan shot through his left and right hands in succession, pinning him firmly to the ground.

But even so.

Even when the bald, burly man was in so much pain that he fainted, he didn't utter a single word.

"He's a tough nut to crack."

Lu Yuan nodded.

The Great Wilderness is fraught with danger, and it faces crises from the outside world at every moment.

The reason these tribes were able to take root and survive in the deep mountains, where venomous snakes and insects abound, is because of the unity among the tribe members and their unparalleled cohesion.

In the hearts of all the tribe members, the safety of the tribe is above all else.

For the sake of their tribe, they would not hesitate to sacrifice everything, including their own lives!

Although Lu Yuan admired the bald man's backbone, he showed no mercy in taking action.

Knowing he wouldn't get anything out of the bald, burly man, he picked up his heavy bow with ox horns and walked step by step toward the hunting grounds of the Stone Turtle tribe.

As the bald, burly man watched Lu Yuan's retreating figure, his unease and fear reached their peak.

"Wait! Where do you want to go?"

Lu Yuan didn't turn his head, as if he hadn't heard, and continued walking towards the Stone Turtle Tribe.

"Could it be that you intend to..."

The bald, burly man's pupils constricted, and he turned ashen-faced with fright, as if he had thought of something extremely terrifying.

Despite what reason told him.

One person wiping out an entire clan is absolutely impossible.

But he had a premonition.

Lu Yuan may seem young, but he might actually be capable of doing something like this! (End of Chapter)
