Chapter 9 Pushing the Mountain
The strength of the innate human race was fully demonstrated in this devastating battle.
Those people who could kill him with just a snap of his fingers were now beaten to pieces by him with one punch, without any power to resist.
As Jiang Shan said, how great would it be if we could 'awaken our bloodline' early?
But cause and effect have a sequence. It was because he was chased to the edge of the abyss by the man called Shanyan and thrown into the abyss that he became a congenital human.
His situation was not what Yuan Xin had called "blood awakening". As a visitor from another world, how could he have any blood to speak of?
If you don’t get thrown into the abyss, you won’t have this adventure. If you don’t have the adventure, you can’t become an innate human, and without the power of an innate human, you can’t fight back.
But since Yuan Xin said so, in order to conceal his identity as a time traveler, Jiang Shan went with the flow and regarded his transformation into a congenital human as "bloodline awakening", which was just right.
Of course, he did have this regret in his heart - if he had had the adventure earlier, tonight would not have ended like this - Yuan Xin would die.
Yuan Xin saved his life. Even though Yuan Xin himself said at the time that he saved him because he heard those Cheng Tang soldiers say that Jiang Shan was a noble of Kunwu, it was an established fact that he saved his life in times of crisis and it would not be changed for any reason.
Jiang Shan had a good impression of Yuan Xin. Not only because he saved his life, but also because Yuan Xin spoke openly, did not drag Jiang Shan into the whirlpool, and let him leave.
This can be said to be aboveboard.
When facing danger, some people will subconsciously look for a shield to take the place of being hurt, using various means, such as moral kidnapping, deception, trickery or hysteria.
Yuan Xin is obviously not such a person.
He was in great danger, being chased by 'hunting dogs' along with a half-grown child. When he met someone who needed saving, he was willing to lend a helping hand in a hurry. He also did not use people as shields to deal with the pursuit of the hunting dogs.
He did not treat Jiang Shan as a nobody just because he was "weak as a kitten" before, and was willing to explain to him and tell him about the danger.
How can such a person not be upright?
If possible, Jiang Shan didn't want to see such a person die.
But Yuan Xin's injuries were too severe. He was besieged by many people and fought for his life many times in a desperate situation. Even his body made of copper and iron was riddled with holes.
He was able to hold on until now and even killed an enemy, which shows that he is strong enough.
But he was dying.
In the extremely keen perception of Jiang Shan, who has become a congenital human, Yuan Xin's life is like a candle flame that is about to go out, extremely weak in the flickering.
"I know I shouldn't, but I still want to ask you."
Yuan Xin whispered, "Zhongyu is the eldest son of the king. I have been entrusted with a heavy responsibility, but I have to stop at the end. If I die, I will not be able to rest in peace. I beg you to help me send Prince Zhongyu to Huangyu Village."
He reluctantly raised his hand and tremblingly handed Jiang Shan a blood-stained bead, looking at Jiang Shan with hope: "The road to Huangyu Village is inside."
Jiang Shan looked at him and silently took the beads from his hand.
Yuan Xin grinned and murmured, "Buried in the mountain stream, with green mountains by my side and streams around me, ancestors, I return to your embrace."
Before he could finish his words, his hands dropped down and he was lifeless.
The boy next to him, Zhongyu, had already started crying.
Jiang Shan had expected that Zhongyu was a prince; the target of those people was Zhongyu, not Yuanxin. Yuanxin was the king's guard, so Zhongyu's identity must be very important.
It’s a pity that Yuan Xin didn’t make it to the end and failed to complete his mission.
Jiang Shan looked at the smile on Yuan Xin's face and his closed eyes, exhaled lightly, switched to his innate human body, dug a hole next to Yuan Xin's body, and buried Yuan Xin.
Jiang Shan grabbed Zhong Yu, jumped onto the cliff on one side of the mountain stream, and put him down; then he looked around for a moment, bent his knees and jumped to the other side.
Looking at the hundred-meter-high cliff in front of him, Jiang Shan took a deep breath, took two steps back, roared, and lunged forward, slamming his shoulders against the cliff like drumsticks.
The stone cliff cracked and cracks spread.
Jiang Shan exhaled, took two steps back, roared like thunder, and slammed the stone cliff with his huge body again; the hundred-meter stone cliff could not hold on and collapsed with a loud bang!
The stone cliffs collapsed with a loud bang, completely burying the mountain stream.
Jiang Shan looked at the disappearing mountain stream and whispered, "I hope your soul will return to your ancestors and enjoy eternal peace."
The difference between the true body and the original body of the innate human race is that the true body is suitable for combat and cultivation; while the original body is suitable for daily life.
Manifesting his innate human true form, Jiang Shan's perception became extremely sharp, as if heaven and earth were one; this state was obviously suitable for practicing martial arts and fighting.
When switching back to the original body, the strength will not be affected, and the strength will not be reduced because the original body is only 1.88 meters tall; but the feeling of being one with the world will disappear, as if there was a layer of gauze between them, no longer clear, but very hazy.
His true body was tall, even as an infant, it was ten meters tall. It was foreseeable that his true body would become taller and taller, one hundred meters, one thousand meters, ten thousand meters, towering over the sky.

Such a huge body is undoubtedly not suitable for daily activities.
In contrast, the original body is quite ordinary.
After burying Yuan Xin and pushing down the cliff to flood the mountain stream, Jiang Shan took Zhong Yu back to the barren mountain and rested in his cave for a night.
Jiang Shan had already learned from Zhong Yu the wonderful use of the bead that Yuan Xin gave him.
In fact, it is very simple. Just place it under the sun and the bead will project a map. The end of the route shown on the map is the entrance to Huangyu Village that Yuan Xin mentioned.
But this bead is not just a map.
It is also the key to enter Huangyu Village - Huangyu Village is hidden in a secret place, and without the key, the door cannot be found.
When he woke up in the morning, Jiang Shan carefully looked at the map to Huangyu Village in the sunshine and found that Huangyu Village was not far from the barren mountain where the cave was located in a straight line!
Fifty miles at most.
Zhongyu told Jiang Shan that Yuanxin had been taking him around in this area for the past few days. Yuanxin was afraid that he would lead these people to the entrance of Huangyu Village and expose the existence of Huangyu Village, so he planned to take the hunting dogs to circle around and see if he could divide them so that he could defeat them one by one.
Unfortunately, his plan failed. Those people had no intention of dispersing.
Instead, he was caught and trapped in a deserted mountain. If Jiang Shan had not seized the opportunity and was able to counterattack, he and Zhong Yu would have surely died.
Jiang Shan decided to set off immediately and go to Huangyu Village to fulfill Yuan Xin’s last wish.
In the wild mountains, there was no need to worry. Jiang Shan switched to his innate human body which had grown three meters taller overnight. He put the silent and depressed Zhong Yu on his shoulders, taught Zhong Yu to hold his backpack, and then took big strides, following the instructions on the map, and headed straight towards Huangyu Village.
Jiang Shan is now thirteen meters tall. This is because the eggshell fragments stored in his stomach have been digested a little. He is ten feet taller than when he fought last night. He is stronger, his physique is more solid, and he walks faster.
Fifty miles away, with his tall stature and powerful strength, he didn't need to take a detour or climb the mountain. He could just walk in a straight line. Even if he walked at a leisurely pace, he would reach the destination in less than a quarter of an hour.
