Chapter 1464: Chance Encounter with the Curse Tribe

The reason we say this person is a weirdo is.

It's because this person's whole body is covered in runic markings, even his face is etched full of them.

Moreover, this person's race is clearly different from ordinary people, with a dusky skin tone, an extremely sturdy build, and wearing animal skins like tribal people.

Like a special human race.

Ye Liuyun didn't know this person's origin, so he immediately asked Meng Zhangxing.

"Curse Tribe!"

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun's description, Meng Zhangxing actually became somewhat excited.

"That person is the Curse Tribe I told you about, who uses talismans to attack others! We urgently need a genuine Curse Tribe partner to help us enter Heaven-Reaching Valley, which is what they call Death Valley."

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and asked Meng Zhangxing: "This Curse Tribe member's cultivation is not high, only at the fourth layer of Earth Sovereign."

"I'll directly perform a Soul Search on him to gather information, then go find a higher-level Curse Tribe member—how does that sound?"

"Don't! The Curse Tribe is very sinister."

"Either you kill him when he's off guard, or you don't harm him at all; otherwise, once they place a curse on you, other Curse Tribe members will notice and come hunt you down!"

"This has little to do with their cultivation level."

"A fourth-layer Earth Sovereign would be considered a strong expert in their tribe!"

Meng Zhangxing explained.

"Don't worry, my Soul Searching Technique won't hurt anyone!"

After Ye Liuyun said that, Meng Zhangxing then agreed.

That Curse Tribe member was also drawn over by the smell.

After he noticed Meng Zhangxing and the others, he unexpectedly stopped being cautious and instead walked straight over.

He didn't look like he was about to launch an attack.

He approached Ye Liuyun and the others, first bowing politely.

Ye Liuyun, meanwhile, took the opportunity to thrust his soul into the man's Sea of Consciousness, directly initiating a Soul Search.

"This Curse Tribe member's name is Mu Ranxing; he came here looking for a medicinal herb called Rebirth Flower to prolong the life of their clan chief."

While conducting the Soul Search, Ye Liuyun relayed the information to the nearby companions.

At the same time, he also retrieved the Curse Tribe member's curse techniques and their runic script from his Sea of Consciousness, and recorded all that information.

Mu Ranxing approached them because he knew most people would not harm the Curse Tribe.

Because although the Curse Tribe is frightening, they never take the initiative to attack others.

He wanted to trade the ferocious beasts he had hunted these past days with Ye Liuyun for some roasted meat.

By the way, he asked them if they had ever seen that Rebirth Flower herb.

After Ye Liuyun memorized the Curse Tribe's techniques and script, he immediately withdrew from the man's Sea of Consciousness.

Although the time in the soul world was brief, that Curse Tribe member immediately became alert.

"Don't misunderstand, don't misunderstand; my friend here doesn't know about the Curse Tribe."

"He still thought you were going to attack us, which is why he wanted to launch an attack."

"I just explained that to him."

At this point, Meng Zhangxing began acting, explaining to Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun also hurriedly went along with the act, apologizing to that Curse Tribe member.

The two of them played off each other well, and the performance was quite convincing.

Seeing that they seemed harmless, the Curse Tribe member gradually relaxed.

He had never heard of Ye Liuyun's Soul Search technique that could gather information without harming the soul, so he assumed Ye Liuyun was merely using his soul to threaten him a little.

"My name is Mu Ranxing, a Curse Tribe member! I'd like to trade with you for some cooked food."

Mu Ranxing spoke up.

His accent was a bit strange, but everyone could still understand him.

After speaking, he produced two Barbarian Bear carcasses with plenty of meat.

Meng Zhangxing also introduced everyone to him.

Guo Da and Luo Yun both looked bewildered, secretly thinking: "Could it be that Curse Tribe members don't even know how to roast meat?"

Meng Zhangxing also began explaining to him: "The Curse Tribe follows a tribal system, and many of their lifestyles are quite backward."

"So whenever they have a chance to interact with outsiders, they want to try the outsiders' food, learn some preparation methods, and improve them upon returning to the tribe."

Mu Ranxing, seeing their expressions and hearing Meng Zhangxing's explanation, was actually quite pleased to find someone who somewhat understood the Curse Tribe.

"Come sit, let's eat together!"

Meng Zhangxing invited Mu Ranxing.

"Thank you!"

Mu Ranxing also knew to be polite before sitting down.

Ye Liuyun immediately handed him a piece of freshly roasted animal meat.

After receiving it, he first smelled it, found the aroma quite unusual, took a bite, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"It's so delicious! Could you tell me how you made it?"

Mu Ranxing asked excitedly.

"Of course!"

Ye Liuyun nodded, then asked him: "Do you know how to first roast the meat like this?"

Ye Liuyun also gave him a demonstration.

"We can do this!"

Mu Ranxing immediately said.

"Then it's simple."

Ye Liuyun said and began to sprinkle seasoning upward.

Then he took some seasoning and handed it to Mu Ranxing.

Mu Ranxing took the seasoning, smelled it, dabbed a bit with his finger and tasted it, then kept nodding and asked Ye Liuyun, "Is this for sale?"

Ye Liuyun shook his head: "This is a mix of various seasonings, and I've also added quite a few medicinal ingredients!"

Mu Ranxing, hearing this, felt a bit disappointed and wanted to return the seasoning to Ye Liuyun.

"I've given it to you!"

Ye Liuyun said generously.

Mu Ranxing repeatedly thanked him and put away that packet of seasoning.

"Do you understand medicinal ingredients?

"Have you seen a Rebirth Flower?""

Mu Ranxing, hearing him mention medicinal ingredients, recalled his purpose for coming here.

Ye Liuyun shook his head and said: "I haven't seen a Rebirth Flower.

"She is an Alchemist, maybe she can help you! \""

Ye Liuyun then pushed Luo Yun forward.

"Our Clan Chief has been afflicted by a curse technique and needs a Rebirth Flower to prolong life!"

Mu Ranxing directly explained to Luo Yun.

"I have seen a Rebirth Flower, but I don't have it now."

Are you wanting to use the Rebirth Flower to refine a Life-Continuing Pill?

Or just take it directly?

"If you want to prolong someone's life, you don't necessarily have to use a Rebirth Flower; anything that can replenish life energy will do! \""

Luo Yun said.

"We only know this one kind of Rebirth Flower! \""

Mu Ranxing directly said.

"You yourselves are the Curse Clan; can even the Clan Chief be afflicted by a curse technique? \""

Ye Liuyun asked, puzzled.

"The Clan Chief was injured by a traitor."

"That person is not a member of our Curse Clan! \""

Mu Ranxing said.

His words instead reminded Ye Liuyun that outsiders can also learn this curse technique!

Thus, a clone immediately began researching this curse technique inside the Xuan Kong Shi.

But after researching, a conclusion was reached: practicing this curse technique requires a kind of Spiritual Stone.

Only after absorbing its power can one cultivate it.

The curse technique actually attacks the opponent's life force.

If one hasn't absorbed the power of that Spiritual Stone, the caster will also suffer backlash when using the curse technique to attack an enemy, damaging both their lifespans.

That's a contest of whose life lasts longer!
