Long Road to Stardom

Chapter 247 Do it yourself

"How can you say that? Everything is fine now."

Lin Xing asked with some confusion.

"My benefactor, you may not know that this continent lacks the power of stars, and devastating disasters will occur every once in a while."

"If we hadn't been saved by our benefactor some time ago, my clan would have died in that disaster."

The old man opened his mouth to explain.

Lin Xing heard a hint of despair in the old man's voice and suddenly didn't know how to comfort him.

"It turns out that there are many people who are more miserable than me. They have been looking for hope of survival for tens of thousands of years, but I just have a crack in my dantian and I don't want to live anymore."

"That's really wrong!"

Seeing that Lin Xing had been silent for a long time, the old man asked, "Benefactor, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Xing pulled back his thoughts and said, "Nothing, I just wrote down what I felt."

"Grandma, don't be too discouraged. I believe there will be a miracle."

"A miracle? I don't believe in this anymore."

The old man said with some self-mockery, but soon returned to normal, "You just woke up, and you kept talking to an old lady like me for so long. I really feel sorry for that. I wonder if you have any requirements for accommodation."

Lin Xing knew that the old man didn't want to talk any more, so he didn't ask any more questions. "Just find me a quiet place."

The old man was not surprised when he heard this, and immediately ordered, "Li Chao, take your benefactor to live in the room behind you."

"Yes, Lord Priest."

Upon hearing this, Li Chao led Lin Xing to a house behind the stone house where the old man lived.

Although the residence is behind the stone house where the old man lives, the distance is still quite far, more than a hundred meters.

On the way, Li Chao couldn't help but ask, "Benefactor, are you really a human?"

"Why do you look like us?"

Lin Xing made an appointment for a while before speaking, "Actually, the difference is quite big. I can't turn into a monster."

"My benefactor, it is not that easy for us to transform into beasts. It is already good enough if one of the hundreds of tribesmen can succeed."

Li Chao sighed slightly when he thought of this.

If the tribesmen had transformed more into beasts every time they prayed, so many of them wouldn't have died every time a disaster struck.

"What are the conditions for beast transformation?"

Lin Xing asked in some confusion, isn't beast transformation an exclusive ability of the beast race, and is there a saying that one cannot transform into a beast?

"I heard from my elders that it was not like this in the beginning. Every member of the tribe was able to transform into a beast. At that time, the beast tribe was extremely powerful, with a total of millions."

"But after the war between immortals and demons, a piece of the sacrificial plate we used for blessing and sacrifice was missing, resulting in only a few of our tribesmen being able to transform into beasts every time we prayed afterwards."

"As a result, every time a disaster occurs, we don't have enough capacity to take care of everyone. Gradually, the number of our tribe members has dwindled, and now there are only a few hundred people left, and less than ten of them can transform into beasts."

Li Chao told everything he had heard from his elders.

"So you need to be blessed before you can transform into a beast."

Lin Xing quickly found the key information from these words.

The journey is not short, but it will eventually end.

When they arrived at the place, Li Chao stopped and said, "My benefactor, this is the place that the priest arranged for you."

"Do you think you are satisfied?"

When Lin Xing heard this, he looked up.

All I saw before me was a simple wooden house surrounded by lush trees.

Although it looks simple, the environment is quiet and makes people feel peaceful and harmonious.

“It’s not a stone house.”

Lin Xing nodded to show her satisfaction. She didn't have any requirements for living conditions, as long as the environment was quiet.

Li Chao heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this. "Then, benefactor, please take a rest first. If you need anything, just ring this bell. I will come right over when I hear it."

"I will deliver meals every day."

After saying that, Li Chao left.

Lin Xing watched him go away, then looked towards the room.

He stood at the door for a while before walking in.

The furnishings inside are very simple, but everything that is necessary is there.

She sat by the window, thinking about her future path.

After staying here for a while, in addition to Li Chao who came to deliver meals to her every day, children would occasionally come over.

Especially after listening to her stories, more and more children came.

That little stone comes to report every day.

She also discovered that everyone here had spiritual roots, but when she taught them to practice human skills, they had no reaction at all.

I think there is a difference in the body structure between the beastmen and the humans.

During this period, she learned a lot of information about the beastmen, but unfortunately she had no ability to change their current situation.

That day, Lin Xing woke up early as usual.

A day passed, and apart from Li Chao bringing her food, no other child came, which made her feel a little strange.

She left the house and looked down, and saw that the people here were no different from usual, but seemed a little busier than before.

As evening approached, a small figure came to where Lin Xing lived and shouted, "Sister Xing, I'm here."

Lin Xing, who was about to take a rest, stood up and opened the door, and asked in confusion, "Little Stone, why are you here so late?"

"Sister Xing, I'm just afraid that you'll worry."

"Sister Xing, look, these are the flowers I picked while I was looking for food today. I'm giving them to you."

Lin Xing took the flower from Xiao Shitou and said with a smile, "Thank you, this flower is very beautiful, I like it very much."

"Oh, right, little stone."

"Just now you said you were going out to look for food. You are so young, how can the adults in the tribe let you leave the tribe?"

"Sister Xing, you don't know that the blessing ceremony will be held in ten days. Everyone must go out and prepare things for themselves."

"Although I am still young, I don't want to miss this blessing ceremony."

"The priest said that this might be the last time it is held."

The more Little Stone spoke, the sadder he became.

Although he was still young, he had experienced the death of several tribesmen, and the feeling of powerlessness filled his heart.

Suddenly a hand stroked his head, "Little Stone, I'll go out with you tomorrow!"

"And I believe, Little Stone, you can definitely transform into a beast successfully."

Little Stone raised his head, looked at Lin Xing with hopeful eyes and said, "Sister Xing, are you telling the truth?"

"Of course, when did I lie to you."

"It's so late, you should go home!"

"Sister Xing will accompany you out tomorrow."

"Got it, Sister Xing, I'll go back first then."

After saying this, Little Stone happily skipped and jumped towards home.

The sky had become completely dark, and there was not a single star in the sky.

She knew that this was caused by the lack of star power on this continent.

The next morning, Lin Xing got up early and prepared some things for going out.

To be honest, after such a long time, she was not used to the days without spiritual power in her body and had to do everything by herself.
