Chapter 760: Chapter 599: My Path
Hua Gang was dumbfounded. He clung tightly to the Sacred Rock, barely believing his own eyes! What on earth was this guy named Long Yi doing! The victor was obviously him, he had been the irrational one, so why had Long Yi suddenly handed over the Sacred Rock to him? Was he scared? Impossible! Long Yi’s face was always calm, devoid of any trace of fear!
But why! Why? Was he moved by his own ambition? Or was he playing a game on him? Is this not the Sacred Rock?
Hua Gang didn’t understand, or should I say, he was utterly confused. But he also decided not to understand it anymore. He quickly began absorbing the power inside the Sacred Rock. When he felt the force of the black rock filling his body, he knew that Long Yi had not lied to him. This was the real Sacred Rock! Unbelievably powerful! But when he lifted his head, Long Yi had already left.
At this moment, Long Yi was rushing straight to the Six Sister’s witch’s hut, but before he could step in, Six Sister had already come out.
"Alright, Master Long Yi, let’s go!" Six Sister said.
"Go? Where?" Long Yi was originally planning to leave, but Six Sister beat him to it. Did she have an appropriate target?
"I don’t know. However, Master, now that you have the power of the black rock, will you continue to stay here?" Six Sister retorted.
"In theory, I should definitely leave. However, I still have a small task left uncompleted," Long Yi nodded and explained.
"What is it?"
"I am quite interested in the magic of the Mountain Giants, I plan to learn their magic before leaving, it would be an additional self-protection ability."
"As per your plan then, you will not have to waste your time anymore," Six Sister shook her head and replied, "The power of the Mountain Giants comes from the force of the rock, you can learn this power because it is not inherently of the Mountain Giants. However, their magic is an innate ability in its entirety, you cannot learn it no matter what, because it is not magic, but a natural reflex. Even if you ask them, they would not know how to teach you. They were born with this ability."
"So that’s how it is! No wonder I’ve tried many times and yet couldn’t figure out what the magic spells cast by these Mountain Giants actually were," an enlightened Long Yi exclaimed.
"However, you should not be discouraged. If you wish to, you can also replace it with various rock-based magic spells. In this world, rock-based magic spells have been greatly enhanced," Six Sister informed Long Yi.
"In that case, it seems we can really leave now. But as a witch doctor, isn’t it inappropriate for you to leave just like that?" Long Yi commented with a smile.
"Master Long Yi isn’t aware. The witch doctor they know in this tribe isn’t actually me, but the automaton puppet I created. This puppet can also draw the power of rock from the earth and has the same medical knowledge. As long as it stands on the ground it will never break down or tire."
"I see, you’ve thought of everything!"
Long Yi had to marvel, indeed she had been alive long enough!
Like Little Zi, Six Sister also hid inside Long Yi’s body, then Long Yi went off to bid farewell to Stone Fist.
Stone Fist was also looking for Long Yi at this time.
"Long Yi! You crazy kid! The hard won power of the Sacred Rock, and you gave it to Hua Gang? That kid is showing off the power of the black rock everywhere! It’s making me furious!" Stone Fist roared as soon as he spotted Long Yi from a distance.
Long Yi stopped, smiled slightly and said, "I was originally an outsider. It wasn’t appropriate for me to come over suddenly and take the Sacred Rock. Although I don’t know much about Hua Gang, he seems to be pretty ambitious. If I hadn’t shown up, he would have gotten the Sacred Rock smoothly, right? Therefore, I gave it to him."
Long Yi indeed appeared nonchalant.
"Hey, it’s not that bad that you gave it to him. Though I don’t like his character, I admit, he’s much stronger than me. But the power of the black rock is very precious. You obtained it with great difficulty, only to give it up, isn’t that a loss?" Stone Fist was amazed by Long Yi’s insouciance.
"It’s not a loss, it doesn’t matter," Long Yi chuckled and replied, "Moreover, I believe I might be able to obtain the black rock power from other channels."
He didn’t say it explicitly, after all, he had already obtained the power of the black rock. If in future at some other place, he was found to really have the power of the black rock, it’s easy to clarify.
However, Stone Fist clearly did not believe Long Yi’s words.
"Ah, forget it, brother. You really are a difficult person to understand," Stone Fist shook his head and said, "It’s almost time for lunch. Why don’t you come and have a meal at my house?"
"Sure!"
Long Yi was about to say goodbye to Old Stone Fist so it seemed the perfect time for a farewell meal.
The huge double-layered stone house of Old Stone Fist was the Fist’s home. As the tribe elder, his house was not any more luxurious than others.
There was nothing special about lunch in the stone house, the rough beast leg was still Long Yi’s favorite main course.
Hearing that Long Yi had given the Sacred Rock to Hua Gang, Old Stone Fist also expressed disbelief. However, he didn’t say much more because he found that Long Yi was really an enigmatic kid. Since Long Yi wanted to give it away, he must have a good reason.
"Uncle Old Stone Fist, I heard from Hua Gang, that actually quite a number of people in the tribe look forward to being caught by slave traders?" Long Yi casually asked after finishing his meal.
