Lu Shuang knew even less about Shen Nong's problem than Shen Nong. Seeing Lu Shuang's confused and shocked look, Shen Nong knew that he understood nothing.

Shen Nong sighed softly, "You should have a good rest and don't move around."

Lu Shuang nodded and said she understood.

Even after Shen Nong left, Lu Shuang couldn't calm down for a long time. Is there really a powerful force in his body?

Lu Shuang's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and he fell into a deep sleep soon. He was seriously injured before, and even with Shen Nong's wood-type ability to recover and the ability to choose, his energy was very limited now.

It will take a few more days of good rest to fully recover its energy.

Not long after Shen Nong left Lu Shuang's place, he heard a tribe member outside the mud house reporting, "Priest, Bao Qiu is back, and he wants to see you."

Bao Qiu? Wasn't he out there trading with the Yu tribe? Why is he back now?

"Let him in."

In order to allow sufficient light into the house, Shen Nong always opens the wooden door of the earthen house during the day.

The tall figure blocked the sunlight shining into the earthen house. Shen Nong looked up and asked, "What happened?"

At Shen Nong's signal, Bao Qiu sat on the chair and told Shen Nong everything he had encountered in the Wushan tribe.

In particular, he described the abilities of the priests of the Wushan tribe in great detail.

The more Shen Nong listened, the more his brows furrowed.

He had doubts when he sensed the power in Lu Shuang's body before.

Now Bao Qiu's words directly confirmed his suspicion.

In the Beast World, there really are natural elemental powers just like in the StarCraft.

He tapped the system and asked, "Is there any connection between the Beast World and the interstellar space I traveled through?"

The system helped Shen Nong to check, and a prohibition sign popped up on the interface. It stared at the sign for a while and replied: "I don't have permission to view it."

Shen Nong was stunned. No permission to view?

The system rarely gives him such a response, which makes Shen Nong even more suspicious. Is there really some connection between the Beast World and the interstellar space?

At the moment, based on what Bao Qiu said, the wood-related ability has been confirmed.

There is also a water-related ability. Although Lu Shuang didn't seem to notice it, he had truly felt it before.

After finishing the business, Shen Nong asked Bao Qiu to take him to see the four children rescued from the Wushan tribe.

The door of the hut was closed, and only the window was half open, providing a faint light into the dark hut. Four children huddled in the corner.

From the moment they entered the Mu Tribe, they were full of curiosity about this place.

Because there are many things in every place of this tribe that they have never seen before, even the place where they are now is something they have never seen in the Wushan tribe.

Although they were extremely curious, they did not dare to look around too much.

After the only powerful orc they were familiar with left, they dared not move around.

It was not until the wooden door of the earthen house was pushed open that the strong light from outside shone into the house, dispelling the coldness and darkness inside.

The four children looked up at the same time; just one glance made them unable to look away.

The sunlight outside shone on the visitor, and the children felt that this person seemed to be emitting light.

The person was much more beautiful than the most beautiful flower they had ever seen, and the smile on his lips made them feel like the spring sunshine.

The fear and trepidation they felt when entering a strange place for the first time suddenly dissipated when they saw this person. They even couldn't help wanting to get close to this person and want him to touch their foreheads.

But they quickly dismissed this idea. The person in front of them was as white as a cloud, while they were dirty.

Shen Nong looked at the skinny child, slowly squatted in front of them, then exchanged four pink peach-flavored candies from the mall and whispered, "Come and have some candy."

Bao Qiu looked at the four round candies placed in the priest's outstretched palm and couldn't help swallowing.

He had also eaten this candy once. After the caravan was established, the priest asked Hu Xiao to give it to them.

What he ate at that time was also of this color, and the taste is still unforgettable.

Bao Qiu tried his best to make his words sound normal and reminded Shen Nong, "Priest, they are timid and won't accept it. I gave them broth in the Yu tribe before, and they waited for a long time..."

Before Bao Qiu could finish his words, Shen Nong felt a slight itch in his palm. It was the children taking the candy from his hand.

Because I was careful to avoid touching his palm, some of the candies were not picked up immediately and slipped on his palm, which made him feel a little itchy.

"You took it already?" Bao Qiu asked in surprise.

Shen Nong smiled and said, "You look too fierce."

Bao Qiu touched his face and looked at Shen Nong again, who looked quite fierce.

The sweet candy melted in their mouths, which was sweeter than the sweetest fruit they had ever eaten. The four children held the candy in their mouths, not daring to move their tongues, for fear that they were dreaming and would wake up if they moved.

Shen Nong's legs were numb from squatting, so he stood up and said to Bao Qiu, "Wait until Yucao and the others come back from herding the sheep, and then let them go find Yucao."

These four children are about the same age as Yucao’s group of kids. It would be better for them to be with people of the same age.

"Priest! Priest!"

Shen Nong heard someone calling him, so he poked his head out of the earth house and asked, "What's wrong with Tu Dong?"

Tu Dong finally found someone, stood there and took a deep breath, finally catching her breath. But her breath was still a little unstable, "Lu Shuang asked me to come find you, saying that she has something important to tell you."

Shen Nong was stunned. Important thing?

After Lu Shuang fell asleep, she seemed to have returned to her childhood in a hazy state.

He sat in the old priest's arms, listening to the old priest's hoarse voice telling him about the ancestors of the Water Tribe.

It has been so long since then, and he was very young at that time. All he thought about every day were the rabbits in the mountains, the birds in the trees, and the insects on the ground.

The old priest said a lot, but he remembered nothing.

But one thing the old priest said left a deep impression on him, because after saying that, the old priest let him go out to play.

He remembered those words in this dream.

"Our ancestor priests have the ability to control water, and the Water Tribe is also one of the ancient tribes of Beast City."

When he was a child, he had no idea what this sentence meant. Later, when he took over as priest, the old priest no longer talked to him about his ancestors.

He naturally forgot about it.

When Shen Nong arrived, he saw Lu Shuang lying on the bed, dancing with excitement, "Priest, I know what that power is!"

Shen Nong walked to his bedside and gently held his hand, "Don't move, I'm listening."

Lu Shuang felt the priest's warm hand pressing down on her arm, but the force was very weak and she could easily break free. But Lu Shuang obediently did not move, and then repeated to Shen Nong what she had heard from the old priest when she was a child.

However, Lu Shuang was still a little uncertain and said, "That power disappeared after I woke up, and I don't know how to wake it up again."

"Priest, Tu Dong said that you used magic to restore my legs. I have never felt that power before." Lu Shuang expressed his guess, "Could its appearance this time be related to your magic?"

Shen Nong did not doubt whether Lu Shuang had remembered the words wrongly. After all, many years had passed and he was still a teenager at that time.

Lu Shuang's words actually further confirmed that the power in his body was the water-based ability.

Hearing Lu Shuang's guess, Shen Nong looked at him carefully and said, "Close your eyes."

Lu Shuang knew that the priest must have some method. He said "Oh" and closed his eyes.

Shen Nong placed his fingertips on Lu Shuang's brow, releasing the spiritual power in his spiritual core to explore whether there was a spiritual core in his brain.

Spiritual perception can establish a connection with Shen Nong's brain. Although he cannot see inside Lu Shuang's brain with his eyes, he can directly feel everything that the energy perceives in his mind.

This is clearer than seeing with your eyes.

Shen Nong searched repeatedly in the location where the spirit core should be, but in the end he found no trace of the spirit core.

Could it be that he guessed wrong?

Just when he wanted to retract his spiritual power, he suddenly sensed a bulge in a corner of Lu Shuang's head.

Shen Nong controlled his spiritual power to sense that area and found a tiny light blue spiritual core there.

However, there was no spiritual power in the spirit core, and the whole thing looked dull and lifeless.

There are also people in the Beast World who possess the same spiritual cores as the Star People. These two worlds have something in common.

After thoroughly confirming it, Shen Nong suppressed the fluctuating emotions in his heart and withdrew his hand, "Okay."

Lu Shuang opened his eyes and scratched the place where Shen Nong's fingertips had touched. It was so itchy that he almost couldn't help but scratch it.

"Priest, have you found anything?"

Shen Nong nodded, "But I don't know how to draw out your energy..."

Speaking of this, Shen Nong suddenly remembered the marrow cleansing pill sold by the system.

Lu Shuang's spirit core was obviously of poor quality, and couldn't even absorb power to advance. To put it bluntly, it was just a decoration, invisible and intangible.

The marrow cleansing pill can cleanse the essence and marrow, improve one's aptitude, and is a must-have item.

He asked the system directly. After all, this thing was not cheap, and one would have to endure severe pain after taking it. If it didn't work, it would be a waste and he would suffer in vain.

The system couldn't tell whether this would work or not. I had never heard that the Marrow Cleansing Pill could make the spirit core stronger.

However, what the host said makes sense, but no one has done this before.

They are all honestly transforming their physical qualities and being reborn.

It didn't dare to jump to conclusion and directly clicked on the data of the Marrow Cleansing Pill and let Shen Nong see it for himself.

Shen Nong read the dense data at a glance, analyzed it quickly in his head, and finally came to a conclusion.

In theory, it is possible, but you won’t know until you try it.

Shen Nong pondered for a moment and decided to give the choice to Lu Shuang.

"I have a pill here. If you take it, there's a 50% chance that you can use that power for your own benefit, but there's also a 50% chance that it will have no effect at all."

Shen Nong stared into Lu Shuang's eyes and recited the system's response to her word for word. "However, regardless of whether you succeed in the end, your body will suffer inhuman pain and torture. It will be painful, like your bones are broken and reassembled, your tendons are severed and reconnected, and your body will feel like it is being bitten by thousands of ants."

When she heard the first part, Lu Shuang wanted to nod her head immediately, but the latter part made Lu Shuang calm down.

His neck was stiff. Lu Shuang knew that as long as he pressed it, he could bring back the ancestral power that had disappeared for a long time.

But just hearing about that kind of pain makes my scalp tingle.

Moreover, the priest said, it is possible that one may suffer that much and still not succeed in the end.

Lu Shuang was in a dilemma.

Shen Nong was also somewhat puzzled. The power he felt that day was not small. It was impossible for a spirit core like Lu Shuang to contain such a powerful power without activating it.

When he searched for the Deer Frost Spirit Core, he also tried to find that power, but found nothing.

That power was like a flash in the pan.

"Priest, forget it..."

Lu Shuang's voice was so soft that Shen Nong almost thought he was hallucinating. "Why? Afraid of pain?"

Lu Shuang shook his head. This was the lost power of his ancestors. But now there was no Water Tribe, and he was no longer a priest of the Water Tribe.

He said dejectedly: "This is the ancestral power of the ancient water tribe... I... am not it anymore... It has no meaning anymore..."

Shen Nong understood what Lu Shuang meant. He reached out and brushed the loose hair on Lu Shuang's forehead to the side. He looked into Lu Shuang's eyes and asked, "You really don't want it?"

Lu Shuang was slightly stunned and pursed her lips without saying anything.

"If you want it, go get it. If there's a chance, why give it up?" Shen Nong's voice was gentle, "It's not meaningless. That's the power your ancestors lost. Bloodline is a connection that cannot be changed no matter which tribe you are in."

Lu Shuang's eyes were red, and he opened his mouth, "Priest..."

Shen Nong smiled and said, "If you succeed in the end, I will teach you how to use this power."

Lu Shuang couldn't help it anymore. He raised his upper body, hugged Shen Nong's waist tightly, and cried loudly.

Shen Nong felt so stiff after being hugged like this, and a feeling of discomfort surged in his heart.

He subconsciously raised his hand and placed it on the boy's head, wanting to push him away, but in the end, amid his sad cries, he just rubbed it gently.

"Wuwuwu, Priest." Lu Shuang sobbed, thinking of Tudong who had always taken care of him, he quickly shook his head, "Priest, Tudong is very good...I can't compete with her."

Shen Nong was confused. "What does this have to do with Tu Dong?"

Lu Shuang said in a muffled voice: "Those who can be taught by the priests are all the next priests selected by the priests. Although the priests will select several people, they will finally choose the one who learns the best..."

Shen Nong interrupted directly: "Do you still have such rules in the beast world?"

He really doesn't know.

Lu Shuang's mood was fluctuating greatly at this time, and she didn't pay much attention to Shen Nong's strange words.

Shen Nong pinched his brows. Tu Dong’s misunderstanding had lasted too long. He had to find another opportunity to make things clear.

Lu Shuang could make it clear right now, "I'm not teaching you as a priest, don't worry."

Lu Shuang raised her head and asked in confusion: "Not as a priest?"

Shen Nong was silent for a moment, then replied: "Well, I guess I am a teacher."

"Teacher?" Lu Shuang was becoming more and more confused.

Shen Nong could only roughly explain the teacher-student relationship to him. Lu Shuang's eyes sparkled as she listened, and she directly called Shen Nong, "Teacher!"

Shen Nong said disdainfully: "Don't shout too early, wait until you succeed."

He looked at Lu Shuang's little face which was slightly red with joy, "Now I'll ask you again, do you want to try it?"

"I think."

Lu Shuang's voice was trembling. He couldn't bear the thought of such pain. But his attitude was extremely firm. He wanted to give it a try.

"No matter what the final result is, I will try."

Shen Nong patted Lu Shuang's head gently and said, "Try again when you are better."

It just so happens that he wants to take advantage of this time to go to the Yu tribe again.

He must exchange the iron ore from the Wushan tribe, and this matter must be resolved.
