Chapter 175 Challenging the Primitive Tribe
Wu Heyi stared wide-eyed at this unfamiliar land, a surge of indescribable curiosity and desire to explore welling up within him.
With his powerful divine sense, comparable to that of a Soul King, he could easily cover the entire area within a thousand meters.
However, to his surprise, he couldn't find even a small town in such a vast area.
His gaze slowly shifted to the white, snow-like beach that stretched endlessly like a silver ribbon in the distance, and Wu Heyi's heart couldn't help but tremble.
This beach is pristine and untouched, as if it has never been tainted by human footprints, perfectly preserving the original appearance that nature bestowed upon it.
Wu Heyi took a deep breath, concentrated his mind again, and released his divine sense with all his might, sweeping across the land like an invisible torrent, carefully examining every inch of land it could cover.
After a search, only a dozen or so villages were found in this seemingly desolate place. These villages were scattered like stars twinkling in the night sky.
What surprised Wu Heyi even more was that when he carefully observed the villagers, he found that none of them seemed to have any signs of possessing a martial spirit.
The people here still live a simple, pure, and unpretentious primitive life, far from the hustle and bustle of the world and isolated from it.
Upon seeing this, Wu Heyi quickly squatted down and asked the girl named Ali with a smile in his face, "You must be Ali?"
The girl nodded timidly, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and fear.
Then, Wu Heyi took out a piece of candy from his pocket, handed it to Ali, and said expectantly:
"Ali, can you take this to your tribe?"
Ali first nodded slightly in agreement, but then quickly shook her head, a move so swift it caught everyone off guard.
After a moment's thought, Wu Heyi had already guessed some of the reasons that might have led to Ali's reaction.
But just then, Ali spoke up before he could.
"Mom said she'll take you to the tribe when you wake up, but you need the chief's permission to enter!"
After Ali timidly finished speaking, she lowered her head slightly and nervously fiddled with the hem of her clothes.
She would occasionally glance up at Wu Heyi with her big, watery eyes, as if worried that he might have some displeased reaction.
Wu Heyi looked at the shy young girl in front of him, smiled and nodded to indicate that he understood.
Then he said softly, "Then I'll trouble Miss Ali to lead the way for me."
Hearing this, Ali blushed slightly, gave a soft reply, and turned to walk away.
Along the way, the two walked through dense jungle, their feet crunching on the thick layer of fallen leaves.
After walking for about 20 minutes, Wu Heyi finally saw the primitive tribe in a forest with a sizable clearing.
The people in the tribe were busy with their own tasks. Some of the men were practicing with spears in the open space, and sweat was streaming down their bronze skin.
Some sat together, skillfully processing the meat they had just hunted, filling the air with a rich aroma of meat.
The women, on the other hand, would sit in front of their houses weaving cloth, the colorful threads flying up and down in their hands, as if they were weaving beautiful dreams.
Whether they are working diligently in the fields, sowing, weeding, or irrigating, everyone's face is filled with a simple smile.
The people in the tribe noticed Wu Heyi, who had been brought back by Ali, from afar.
After all, his magnificent attire contrasted sharply with the rough and simple clothing of the tribespeople.
Almost everyone immediately turned their attention to Wu Heyi, including the village chief.
The leader was a burly man with a steady, powerful gait. He strode to the village entrance, greeting Wu Heyi with a smile.
As Wu Heyi approached, the leader asked, "Boy, where did you come from? And where are you headed?"
His voice was deep and resonant, conveying a sense of authority.
Wu Heyi looked up and stared at the burly, muscular man in front of him, and a strong sense of oppression welled up in his heart.
The feeling was like a heavy mountain pressing down on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.
To be honest, since Wu Heyi successfully cultivated to the Soul King realm, there have been very few people who could put such immense pressure on him.
However, the burly man standing in front of him at this moment was undoubtedly one of them!
Wu Heyi took a deep breath, composed himself, and then spoke:
"I have come from overseas and would like to stay at your place for a while. Would you be so kind as to do me this favor?"
Upon hearing this, the leader was slightly taken aback, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
In his long-held perception, the ocean seemed to be a boundless and endless entity.
The vast continent they lived on was considered the only landmass in the entire world.
Here, only those who commit extremely serious offenses are expelled and forced to leave their homeland, heading towards the mysterious end of the sea.
Therefore, when Wu He repeatedly claimed that he came from the end of the sea, the way the leader and his group of underlings looked at Wu He instantly changed subtly.
Doubt, curiosity, and a touch of awe quietly emerged.
However, despite his doubts about Wu Heyi's words, the leader knew very well from the sight of Wu Heyi's magnificent and dazzling attire that even if this man was lying, he was definitely not someone that he and his men could easily afford to offend.
However, in order to maintain the dignity and solemnity befitting a leader, he cleared his throat slightly before slowly speaking:
"It's not entirely impossible for you to temporarily stay in our tribe, but there's a prerequisite—our tribe has always only welcomed truly strong individuals!"
As soon as the leader finished speaking, Wu Heyi, standing to the side, showed no fear, but instead revealed a calm smile, and responded:
"So, according to you, if I want to live in your tribe, I have to defeat your people first?"
At this moment, the leader nodded without hesitation, indicating his affirmation: "That's exactly right!"
Wu Heyi's eyes were sharp as he quickly scanned the people in the village before him, while secretly sensing the aura and cultivation fluctuations emanating from them.
After some investigation, he realized that the strongest person in the village was only a Great Soul Master.
Wu Heyi's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a hint of barely perceptible mockery. He then lightly flicked his fingers a few times and said nonchalantly:
"Since you insist on deciding whether or not to let me stay in this way, then fine, let's have a fight!"
Immediately afterward, he flashed into a fighting stance, ready to fight, and waited quietly for the opponent to launch the first attack.
