Chapter 3643

The Life Spirit Fruit was the most important thing in this village, just like food in the mortal world.

However, the people living here did not need food, only Life Spirit Fruit.

Once there was no Life Spirit Fruit, they would die.

The children Zi Chen saw were mostly yellow and emaciated because they ate too little Life Spirit Fruit, which meant that they did not have enough food and were malnourished.

Under such circumstances, Zi Chen did not want to waste their Life Spirit Fruit.

Right now, he could slowly adapt to the rules here through cultivation.

He did not need either food or Life Spirit Fruit.

Zi Chen returned to his room, leaned the wooden stick against the door, and prepared to continue his cultivation for the day.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Zi Chen looked up at the door.

The wooden door was pushed open and Shan Ya walked in. Like most of the people here, she wore very little.

Zi Chen gestured for Shan Ya to sit down, but he was a little surprised. Usually, Shan Ya would come before the hunt.

"You can walk now, looks like you've recovered well."

Shan Ya sat down and looked at Zi Chen.

Zi Chen limped to Shan Ya and sat down across from her. The two of them were separated by a wooden table. Zi Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, but it's still a little inconvenient to move. I'll get better slowly."

"Here you go."

Shan Ya took out a Life Spirit Fruit and handed it to Zi Chen.

Zi Chen shook his head and said, "Eat it.

If you don't have enough stamina, you won't be able to hunt a Soul Eater Beast. "

Shan Ya's expression was a little gloomy.

There had been no harvest for many days. If this continued, the people of Kata Village would starve to death.

This was not unprecedented.

Shan Ya was silent. The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing.

After a while, Zi Chen broke the silence and said, "Can you tell me about soul power?"

Shan Ya looked up and glanced at Zi Chen with a complicated expression.

There was no astonishment, only complicated feelings.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for a person who lived in this world to not know about soul power.

Zi Chen wasn't surprised by Shan Ya's nonchalant expression. "I'm very curious about soul power."

Shan Ya stretched out his hand, and a black light swirled in his palm. The black light turned into a rope and slowly extended toward Zi Chen.

"This is the Soul Binding Chain."

Shan Ya explained. The rope was like an agile snake as it began to circle on the table.

Zi Chen stared at the Soul Binding Chain. It was completely composed of soul power, so it could extend at will.

"It can only be used to trap the Soul Devouring Beast. The final attack will be completed by the Soul Shocking Light."

Shan Ya said, "The Soul-shocking Light can't kill the Soul-devouring Beast. It can only make it lose consciousness temporarily."

Zi Chen frowned slightly.

Shan Ya didn't notice Zi Chen's abnormality and continued, "These are the only two soul arts in our Kata Village. However, I'm the only one who knows the Soul-shocking Light."

"What about the Holy Talisman Art?"

Zi Chen asked, "You don't know the Holy Talisman Art?"

"Holy Talisman Art? What's that?" Shan Ya asked in confusion.

Zi Chen didn't answer in detail. Instead, he asked again, "Is it the same in other villages?"

Shan Ya lowered his head and said with some shame, "The other villages have more soul arts than us.

Our Kata Village is the weakest type. "

This wasn't the answer Zi Chen wanted to know. However, from another perspective, Shan Ya actually answered his question.

Here, there were only soul arts. The only difference was the quantity.

"Isn't this the Holy Talisman Realm?

Why is it like this? "

"Or could it be that the Temple Lord's information is wrong? This isn't the Holy Talisman Realm?"

Zi Chen fell into deep thought.

After some time, Shan Ya's voice sounded again, "Can I ask you for a favor?"

Zi Chen came back to his senses and looked at Shan Ya.

"Can we not leave Kata Village?"

Shan Ya said nervously, "Or, can we not abandon Kata Village?"

Zi Chen didn't understand.

"In our place, once a village can't survive, they will merge. However, some merge to survive and grow, while others merge to obtain more bait."

Shan Ya's eyes dimmed. "Currently, only the four of us can hunt in Kata Village. However, there are more than a hundred people here. The nearby villages that want to merge with us want to use us as bait."

Zi Chen wasn't surprised by this. If the strength of both parties wasn't equal, then the weaker party would naturally be bullied.

For example, in Kata Village, there were only four people in the hunting team, but they had to provide food for everyone. This was considered a burden.

Under such circumstances, the people from other villages wanted to merge with them because they wanted the villagers who hadn't awakened their soul power.

Once they were accepted, these people would become bait to hunt the soul-devouring beast.

On the other hand, if there weren't four but forty soul hunters in Kata Village, it would be a different story.

The strong preyed on the weak. This rule existed everywhere.

Zi Chen didn't give a definite answer because he didn't understand what Shan Ya meant.

The next morning, Shan Ya didn't visit Zi Chen. When Zi Chen walked out of his room, he heard some villagers talking.

It was said that they set off early in order to find a good place to hunt today.

After a night of cultivation, Zi Chen's condition improved and his steps became more agile.

According to Zi Chen's estimation, he should be able to recover in about half a month.

After basking in the sun at the door, Zi Chen returned to his room and continued to cultivate. He wanted to adapt to this place as soon as possible.

At noon, there was a sudden commotion outside, mixed with angry roars.

"It's all because of that damn idiot. If it wasn't for him, Shan Ya wouldn't be in trouble!"

It was Hanrui's voice. He seemed to be very angry. "I'm going to kill him!"

Then, there was a wailing sound outside.

By the time Zi Chen heard the news and walked out of the room, everyone in the village had come out and were crying.

The atmosphere was filled with despair.

"What happened?"

Zi Chen looked at Liang Bao in the crowd. His eyes were red and he was very sad.

"You still dare to ask what happened?"

Hanrui angrily came to Zi Chen and grabbed Zi Chen's robe. "It's all because of you!

It was you who killed Shan Ya! "

Zi Chen's head buzzed.

Shan Ya was dead?

The only person in Kata Village who could use the Soul Shock Light was dead?

Then who could catch the Soul-devouring Beast next?

Without someone to act in the end, this village would be completely finished.

The cries around became more tragic.

Everyone was in despair.

Even their eyes on Zi Chen became unfriendly.

"It's you, it's all because of you!

You killed Shan Ya, I want you to die with her! "
