Chapter 2211: Request!
Zhou Yu came back to his senses.
He said lightly:
"Nothing."
Black Spirit quickly asked:
"Ancestor, I see that you seem to have never been here. May I ask, ancestor, where did you come from?"
Of course, Zhou Yu was not going to tell her the truth.
He said lightly:
"I’m indeed not from the Eastern Realm."
The so-called Eastern Realm refers to the entire eastern region of the Desolate Origin Realm.
This is recorded on maps.
"I came from another place and accidentally arrived here due to an unexpected event during a long-distance teleportation array."
Upon hearing this, Black Spirit quickly said:
"Senior, then you definitely need a place to recuperate next."
"Our She People happen to have a place, an ancestral ground where the Heaven and Earth Primordial Power is very abundant. If ancestor does not mind, you can rest in our ancestral ground."
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow, looking at Black Spirit.
"You really want me to stay?"
"Tell me your purpose."
Black Spirit didn’t expect Zhou Yu to be so keenly aware of her thoughts.
Black Spirit gritted her teeth and then said to the people beside her:
"All of you go out."
Upon hearing this, all the white-robed She People and the Fire Spirit obediently left.
After everyone left, Black Spirit got up and knelt before Zhou Yu.
"Junior brazenly asks the ancestor to save my She People."
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Oh?"
"What do you mean?"
"What happened to your She People?"
Black Spirit immediately said:
"I dare not hide it from the ancestor."
"About three years ago, the Scorpion Clan, who have been good friends with my She People for generations, were wiped out by a mysterious force in a short time."
"And a year and a half ago, another neighboring race of my She People, the Fox Clan, also encountered the same situation."
"Junior’s cultivation is too low to find out what force wiped them out."
"Now, about a year and a half has passed."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the next target of that mysterious force is my She People."
"To deal with this mysterious force, junior was forced to use the secret technique of the tribe, which is why my cultivation was temporarily raised to the Peak of Nascent Soul Realm."
"I have initially grasped the Ancestor’s Power."
"But even so, junior has no confidence in being able to protect my She People."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Ancestor’s Power?"
"What is that?"
Black Spirit quickly said:
"Ancestor’s Power is a gifted divine power of my She People."
"However, to activate Ancestor’s Power, one must reach beyond the Nascent Soul Realm and completely transform into the ancestor’s form, which is my current form, to barely activate Ancestor’s Power."
"But even then, it’s only barely."
"Are your ancestors Human Race?"
Zhou Yu was taken aback and then curiously asked.
Black Spirit looked confused.
"Human Race?"
"Senior, junior doesn’t know what Human Race is."
"Junior only knows that the ancestor of my She People looks almost identical to senior."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu was stunned.
Could it be that the ancestor of these She People is actually Human Race?
In other words, these She People are also part of the Human Race?
After a brief contemplation, Zhou Yu thought it was possible.
Because when he was in Fengyuan City before, he had read some ancient books introducing other realms.
According to the ancient books, whether it’s the Desolate Origin Realm or the Cold Origin Realm, there are Human Race present.
It’s just that the main body of Human Race is still in the Heavenly Origin World.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu was already seventy to eighty percent sure that these She People, even if not Human Race, have a close connection to Human Race.
Zhou Yu spoke again:
"Among the other two races, what is the highest level of cultivation?"
Black Spirit quickly said:
"Nascent Soul Realm Early Stage."
Zhou Yu nodded.
At this moment, he had a clear idea.
No matter what that mysterious force is.
It wiped out a race with the highest cultivation only at Nascent Soul Realm Early Stage, making it so mysterious.
This is enough to show that the so-called mysterious force itself is nothing special.
However, Zhou Yu did not show disdain.
Instead, he asked:
"Why do you think I can protect you?"
Black Spirit quickly said:
"Junior doesn’t know the senior’s strength, but senior’s appearance is the ancestor’s appearance."
"The ancestor is the strongest being in the legend of my She People."
"Ancestor, you must be able to protect my tribe."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu showed a non-committal expression.
Although these She People may have some relation to the Human Race.
But Zhou Yu is no saint.
He has no reason to take unnecessary risks now.
The life and death of the She People have nothing to do with him.
Perhaps sensing Zhou Yu’s thought or feeling the indifference emanating from Zhou Yu.
Black Spirit quickly said:
"If ancestor can help my tribe, junior is willing to offer the supreme treasure of my tribe to help senior heal."
"Supreme treasure?"
"Are you talking about that pill medicine?"
Zhou Yu asked lightly.
Black Spirit quickly said:
"Yes, ancestor."
"My tribe has a divine pill called Earth Flame Pill."
"It has been passed down since the ancestor’s era."
"It has been nurturing in the Earth Flame at the center of the island."
"This divine pill has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. I believe it can help senior recover quickly."
Black Spirit seemed to have made a great decision to say these words.
However, Zhou Yu was not interested in this.
To Zhou Yu, these people were too weak.
So the things they consider supreme treasures may be worthless to Zhou Yu.
However, the underground lava pool in the center of the island left a deep impression on Zhou Yu.
He thought for a moment and then said:
"Present this so-called divine pill. I want to see it."
"If it’s useful, I will stay."
"If it’s useless, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
"The She People have their destiny. I don’t want to get caught up in cause and effect for no reason."
Upon hearing this, Black Spirit showed a look of excitement.
"Thank you, ancestor, for making this possible."
"Junior will go get the divine pill right away."
"However, retrieving the divine pill requires some procedures, which may take a few days."
"Why doesn’t ancestor first go to our ancestral ground to recuperate, and I’ll present the divine pill to ancestor as soon as I retrieve it."
Zhou Yu nodded.
"Okay."
Upon hearing Zhou Yu agree, Black Spirit quickly ordered someone to take Zhou Yu to the ancestral ground.
The so-called ancestral ground is actually in a valley beside the underground lava pool.
This valley’s underground is the intersection of the island’s spirit veins.
The Heaven and Earth Primordial Power here is indeed more abundant.
But for Zhou Yu’s current cultivation, this amount of Heaven and Earth Primordial Power is barely adequate.
Of course, Zhou Yu didn’t mind.
His recovery mainly relies on his spiritual pills and medicines.
After the She People left, Zhou Yu checked the surroundings and found nothing unusual.
He then sat cross-legged, took out a spiritual medicine, swallowed it, and began to quickly refine it...
