Synopsis

Chapter 1 - Prehistoric Tribe

One second ago, Ye Xi was at his home, collapsed on the floor from a sudden heart attack. A second later, when he opened his eyes, he was all tied up and thrown in the middle of a bunch of naked cavemen.

 These cavemen had unkempt hair and bodies covered in filth. Some of them were wearing filthy pieces of animal hide or grass skirts around their waists, but some of them were completely nude, not wearing the smallest scrap of clothing.

 They were dancing around a bonfire, making strange shouts like they were celebrating something.

 Ye Xi looked down in confusion.

 He discovered that he was in a wretched condition, with a shabby grass skirt that was incapable of covering his entire body around his waist.

 But that was a minor affair. What he found most bizarre and confusing was that he had become very thin, so thin that his belly was shriveled and his skin was clinging so tightly to his ribs that he could count them. As for his legs, they were as thin as pieces of firewood.

 Ye Xi was utterly struck dumb.

 Why was he here? Why had his body become like this? Where had all of these savages that seemed to have lived deep in the mountains come from?

 And most importantly, why was he tied up? Had he been captured and taken to some tribe in Africa?!

 Hwooo!

 A spark from the fire, blown by the wind, scalded his body and shook him from his stupor.

 He was too close to the bonfire, only a few centimeters away. The flames burned fiercely, so hot that he was on the verge of panic. And those cavemen were continuing to throw wooden sticks onto the pile.

 This wasn't to torture him. Rather, a large beast was being roasted on the fire. Ye Xi didn't recognize it, but it was much larger than a wild boar. It had the characteristics of a tiger and a leopard, but the tail was short.

 Ye Xi looked around.

 He discovered that two other small and thin people had been tied up nearby. He suspected that they were women, but they were so thin and dirty that he really couldn't tell.

 "Atuka! Benifanlu!!"

 "Kawasawa!"

 An extremely hairy and muscular man suddenly pointed at Ye Xi and began to savagely and excitedly roar at him.

 Ye Xi raised his head to look at him.

 The man's bronze eyes glared at him, and a savage, fierce, and bloodthirsty energy swept over his face. To be looked at by these eyes was to be looked at by a butcher with a knife, and one couldn't help but tremble in fear.

 But Ye Xi suppressed the instinct and opened his mouth. "You…"

 The first word had barely left his mouth when Ye Xi felt an intense dizziness.

 The original memories of this body began to flash through his mind.

 It was like someone had slammed a brick into the back of the head, dealing a fatal blow, and his mind was having his life flash before his eyes right before he died. The only difference was that he did not completely fall unconscious. A part of his mind was still taking in his surroundings.

 As Ye Xi's mind reeled, another strong man carrying a stone axe walked up to Ye Xi, picked him up like he was a little chick, and carried him into a corner.

 With all those memories flashing through his mind, Ye Xi temporarily lost control of his body.

 His mind felt like it was sealed in a lake. While he knew that he was being carried, he could not control his body, not even move a finger. He could only helplessly struggle in the waters of the lake.

 Unable to resist, he was hung up on a wooden pillar, and then someone gripped his left foot…

 He was about to be executed, killed like some chick or cub.

 No, hurry and wake up!

 Ye Xi's soul roared as it struggled, and cold sweat seeped out of his forehead. As he lingered on the precipice of death, his mind burst through the seal, and he awoke from the chaos to shout, "Waaait!"

 He wasn't speaking in Chinese. Ye Xi had already learned the language of the cavemen from his memories.

 The man stopped his hand just as he was about to swing the stone axe, but then he continued to bring it down as if he had heard nothing!

 Ye Xi cried out in panic, "I have important information to tell you!"

 The stone axe stopped.

 "Talk," the man said in a curt and commanding tone.

 Ye Xi stared into his eyes and firmly said, "No, this information is too important. I can only tell it to your chief or shaman."

 The man with the stone axe chuckled in scorn.

 "Food," Ye Xi immediately shouted, not waiting for the man to speak. "It's about an undiscovered food!"

 The man turned grave, and his hawkish eyes stared at Ye Xi.

 Ye Xi kept his face calm and allowed him to stare.

 "You wait." The man somewhat believed his words and turned to walk toward the crowd by the bonfire.

 Ye Xi mentally breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared the most was that the man would think he was lying, not care for whatever nonsense he was trying to say, and just finish him off. Then, his new life would come to a hasty end.

 Ye Xi recalled the memories he had just received, and he felt his blood surge, his mind in disarray.

 He had not been captured and taken to some African tribe. He had transmigrated!

 The original name of this body was Loose Grass, and he was thirteen this year. His father and mother were both dead, leaving him an orphan. Not too long ago, the Wolftooth Tribe that he was part of had fallen to the Blackpond Tribe. The warriors had all been killed while everyone else had been captured. Only seven others, including Loose Grass, had escaped.

 While the seven of them were fleeing, they unfortunately ran into members of the Mud Mountain Tribe, and they now faced the tragic fate of slaughter. Perhaps because he had been too frightened or simply starving, Loose Grass had died.

 What made Ye Xi unable to calm down was not merely the savage and bloodthirsty tribal conflict.

 Rather, it was that this was a prehistoric world where dinosaurs, giant insects, and other savage beasts coexisted!

 In the ancient history of Earth, there were three famous geological periods that each had a respective hegemon. The Carboniferous Period was dominated by giant insects, the Jurassic Period was dominated by the dinosaurs, and the Paleogene Period was dominated by savage beasts. The three hegemons that had ruled different periods on Earth were living in the same time and on the same continent in this world!

 And the humans, who had arisen on Earth in the relatively safe Quaternary Period of the Cenozoic Era, when all the giant insects, giant beasts, and dinosaurs had gone extinct, were forced to struggle for survival on this exceptionally more dangerous continent!

 Ye Xi looked up at the sky.

 A large white celestial body, much larger than the Sun he was so familiar with, radiated a blinding white light. Not far from this white celestial body was a somewhat smaller red celestial body, seemingly also a star that radiated heat.

 These two stars seared the continent, causing the temperature to soar.

 He was in an extremely dangerous situation.

 Not only did he have a chance of being butchered, he was also badly dehydrated. Despite being exposed to the scorching sun, he had failed to secrete any sweat.

 Ye Xi licked his lips.

 He was very thirsty, so thirsty that he had even cast aside his restless stomach.
