Chapter 12

Chapter 12 – Mysterious Bone Scripture

The villagers could no longer contain their happiness and laughter . This was an unexpectedly pleasant surprise . No one could have thought that the Green Scaled Eagle would deliver them a fierce beast . These types of vicious birds were all intelligent and wise .

In the following days, the Green Scaled Eagle unceasingly presented them with fierce beasts . From flying pythons to gigantic elephants, all kinds of fierce beasts from the mountain range were delivered .

After only a month, the three little tykes fattened up like balloons . They were almost two meters long, and their food consumption was also extremely shocking, increasing day by day .

“The eldest is called Da Peng, the second is called Xiao Qing, the youngest, Zi Yun . ” These were the three names given to them by the children .

TL: The literal definitions of the names are Big Peng (Chinese Mythical Creature), Little Green and Violet Cloud .

Needless to say, these three Green Scaled Eagle were all very intelligent, extraordinarily magical, and they all excelled at understanding human nature . No matter what was said to them, they would understand; the only difference was that they simply couldn’t speak the language of humans .

Especially the youngest, Zi Yun, as it was the most intelligent . At the same time, it was also particularly powerful . After just reaching one meter long, it decided to flap its wings and run out the village . It came back after shredding a few tiger wolves, leaving the villagers stupefied .

“Little Zi, come quick . ” Shi Hao ran in front . Zi Yun eagerly chased from behind . This made all the other children very envious . This mystical sparrow was extra amiable towards the little guy .

“Chirp, Chirp!” Zi Yun ran towards the front, using a scaly wing to help the little guy massage his back . It’s very hard to associate this with the behavior of a vicious Green Scaled Eagle .

“What a suck-up, isn’t it just because the little guy is teaching you Bone Text?!” A group of kids angrily pouted .

The little guy took another approach, and insisted on teaching the three Green Scaled Eagles the Bone Text researched by humans . This mutated Zi Yun was actually very enthusiastic in learning; it was smarter than humans and gradually became increasingly close .

Xiu!

The little guy raised his arms, and the symbols on them lit up . Both arms were covered densely in a net-like pattern, and they were brilliant and resplendent . After pointing in a direction, a small scarlet sparrow flew toward a large tree trunk and instantly burned it .

Pa, Pa!

Zi Yun used both wings to clap, letting out a Pa sound, as if it was applauding . A pair of large vivid eyes blinked, incessantly chirping and expressing his excitement .

“Wa, this little bird is so refined . Only a month old, and it knows this much already . Much stronger than a month old human . ” A group of kids shouted .

Kengchi kengchi . The other two Green Scaled Eagles Da Peng and Xiao Qing also ran close, head-butting the little guy . Wise vicious beasts thirsted for power much more than humans, especially after learning that these Bone Texts could help accelerate their growth .

In these past few days, the little guy Shi Hao also gained a lot . Because the Green Scaled Eagles were a descendent of the Archaic beasts, their bodies naturally contained tons of precious bones and shockingly powerful mysterious symbols . He was constantly observing them .

These ancient and precious bones gave birth to powerful and mysterious patterns exclusive to one type of species . The stronger the archaic descendants were, the stronger their desire to hoard the power of their own mysterious symbols became as well . Otherwise, others would use all their strength to try and gain these powers . These three hatchlings were special, and they were raised by the villagers, so they were much rarer than primitive mysterious symbols . Their symbols far surpassed that of an ordinary human-researched bone text, and to not spread out the secret, they were only called treasured symbols .

It’s possible that these types of mysterious symbols were comparable to a strong man-made bone scripture, but all creatures with natural-born mysterious symbols were extraordinary .

Stone Village’s two ancestral artifacts were both made from the carcasses of two super high-leveled archaic descendants . Only after undergoing some polishing and smelting did they become the treasures they are now .

During this period, Shi Hao always hung out with the three hatchlings and was able to break through a few barriers . Chief Shi Yunfeng was also very happy that they were always together .

Especially Zi Yun, as he underwent the phenomenon of Ancestral Inheritance . Even if it only inherited a small part of the original Archaic devil bird’s imprint, it was still extremely terrifying and had an astonishing amount of prospect . The mysterious symbols in its body would definitely be worthy enough to be called a “Mysterious Bone Scripture . ”

If this news got out, this would definitely arouse the other tribes’ temptations .

At dawn, a red sun rose from within the fog, and a soft and comforting light spread out . The mist in the mountains began to develop a red hue as it flowed ever so slowly .

The air was very fresh, and dewdrops tumbled along the grass and vines . A group of robust males were planning to once again leave Stone Village to go hunting .

“Uncle, you have to be careful in the mountains . ” The little guy Shi Hao was leading the three hatchlings in making noise as he eagerly ran to send them off . He raised his little face that had two bright eyes, and sent his regards to them one by one . He went to bed early and rose up early as well .

The group of male at the prime of their lives laughed heartily . They came towards him and pinched his little face that was blushing like a big apple before heading off towards the mountains with big steps .

“Little Zi let me see again, what exactly is happening with the mysterious symbols forming within your body . I still don’t really understand . ”

After the event, the little guy extended his white and tender hands and intimately embraced Zi Yun’s neck . It made it rather relaxed, exposing the treasured bone’s imprints so that he could easily look around .

“Chirp, Chirp… . ” Da Peng was a bit discontent, and so it scooted over while head-butted his palm .

“Da Peng stop that, I’ll examine your mysterious symbols afterwards, Xiao Qing I’ll help you catch a fish later as well . Don’t disturb us right now . ” The little guy embraced their necks in a similar fashion to appease them .

In reality, the three hatchlings were a head taller than Shi Hao right now . Whether it was the past or present, he was always the little guy in the village .

“WOW, so this is how it works, it’s so complicated similar to constellations . ” The little guy looked at the mysterious symbols that appeared on the surface of Zi Yun’s treasured bone . His eyes were wide open and he finally understood much more .

“Chirp chirp!”

Da Peng and Xiao Qing were also quite curious and looked at the mysterious symbols on their brother’s body . Their eyes never blinked, and it was almost like they wanted to memorize and work hard to digest all the information in their head .

“Da Peng, Xiao Qing, let me look at your treasured symbols . ” The little guy turned around and put his attention on the other two Green Scaled Eagle .

He unceasingly felt about while making contact with their treasured bones . Sparkling light emerged and mysterious symbols formed, and even their scales were adorned in a splendid fashion .

The little guy pondered deeply, perfecting what he acquired over many days and then shut his eyes and muttered: “So it’s like this, complicated mysterious patterns interweaved like so . Evolving and shining, the mysterious strength would emerge forth… . . ”

Xiu!

The little guy’s left hand lit up a bit, and a glistening crescent moon rushed out and rapidly flew towards the distance . It snapped a towering tree right in half, and the tree fell to the floor, rumbling and filling the air with dust .

“Wa! The little guy, he succeeded . He succeeded in studying the Green Scaled Eagle’s innate skills . That’s their treasured symbol right there, so strong!” Not far away, a group of kids saw and were instantly alarmed .

“Stop talking!” The chief appeared . Naturally all this commotion made him appear, and had to shut all the kids up so that they did not disturb Shi Hao who had gained a sudden insight and was currently pondering .

“Little Zi, let me see again . I pretty much understood the imprints from Da Peng and Xiao Qing . ” Shi Hao held Zi Yun’s neck, eyes bright as if he suddenly understood so much more .

Zi Yun let out a long chirp and his revealed his brilliant splendor on his body appearing divine . Although it was still young, it already gave off an atmosphere that was high and mighty, moving the hearts of the villagers .

Mysterious and complicated, the ever-changing mysterious symbols on the surface made its purple scales appear sparkling and translucent . It was extremely magnificent!

The little guy’s eyes shined brightly, and as if they were shining jewels, he stared at the treasured symbols . After a long while, he raised an arm . A burning light was moving on his arm and rushed into his palm before shooting out .

Qiang!

That light shot out like an unsheathed sword and made a metallic sound . A divine and bright disked moon flew out . It was embedded in a huge 56 meter tall boulder as it spun in place . Kacha! That huge boulder was instantly cut in half .

The cut was smooth, and after a rumble, the top half of the boulder weighing over a thousand jin fell to the floor . Rubble flew up and dust rose .

In the distance, the group of people who were watching became petrified . How strong was this power? A bright disk-like moon was able to chop straight through a boulder that was as hard as metal, completely startling everyone .

“Such an incredibly strong mysterious symbol! This purple hatchling indeed inherited the archaic devil bird’s imprint fragments, once again proving that fact . ” Chief Shi Yunfeng emotionally said . “The little guy really is formidable . After only a month, he was unexpectedly able to feel out this ancient treasured symbols’ secrets, how shockingly talented”

Zi Yun, Da Peng and Xiao Qing were all surprised . They were all young, and still couldn’t activate their innate symbols’ strength yet . They were all excited after seeing the result .

“Grandpa chief, I think I understand . ” The little guy’s eyes lit up and happily yelled out .

Shi Yunfeng quickly came over, complimenting and said: “The primitive symbols you just used, it absolutely could be called ‘Mysterious Bone Scripture’ . It is extremely rare and powerful beyond belief . Don’t use it unless you absolutely have to . ”

The little guy blinked his big eyes before scratching his head and asking, “How strong can it be? It’s not even perfect yet, I feel like a tree and a palace should appear on that disk-like moon, but I can’t do that yet . ”

“At the very least, right now you should be as strong as your uncle Linghu and Feijiao, ‘Mysterious Bone Scripture’ was a treasure that all tribes absolutely desired . ” The chief solemnly said .

The little guy acknowledged it and consciously nodded, and then giggled innocently . Today, he trained relentlessly and was a step closer to perfection . Even the chief was in admiration, unable to be of any help .

At sundown, the horizon was doused in red, and the group of hunters returned . There weren’t that much prey and there were also people being carried home .

“What’s going on, what happened?” The villagers rushed out nervously .

“Relax, no one lost their life, but Pi Hou’s father suffered heavy injuries . He was shot near the liver by an arrow . ” Shi Linghu showed an ugly face .

“How’d this happen?” A few elders appeared and inquired .

“It was caused by the Wolf Village ten li out . We haven’t seen a trace of them in half a year . We don’t know the reason why, but they came into our hunting area and fought over our prey and almost shot Pi Hou’s father dead . ”

1 Li = 500 meters, 1 Jin = 500 grams .
