After a century of worship, I became the ancestor of the tribe.

Chapter 115 Steaming away the swamp, scaring away Xiang Liu, unearthing the plague beast, and finding nothing but fish
This day.

Shen Can gazed into the distance and observed that his clansmen were continuing their cultivation as usual.

With the clan chief and temple deity personally leading the practice, everyone's morale was high.

Under the abundant fire energy, Heavenly Vein Warriors appeared one after another, and the increase in their clan power was as easy as a small dragonfish blowing bubbles.

"The twenty-seventh."

As noon approached, another wave of scorching heat swept across the clan's territory, and Shen Can silently noted the number.

Most of the clansmen who are breaking through now are advancing by using the power of the Thirty-Six Desolate Realms.

Although the potential after promotion is low, a Heavenly Vein is still a Heavenly Vein, capable of undertaking some clan affairs that require them to be stationed outside the clan or to lead others.

In superior tribes, Celestial Warriors are the backbone of the tribe; the more numerous they are, the stronger the overall tribal power.

Shen Can also focused on those clansmen who persisted in improving their strength. The more strength they accumulated in the Mountain Opening Realm, the greater their potential in the Heavenly Vein Realm.

The current environment is equivalent to the emergence of an enhanced version of the Fire Element Source Vein, giving clan members who had no chance of advancing to the Heavenly Vein the opportunity to do so.

This allows clansmen capable of advancing to the Heavenly Vein Realm to increase their strength before continuing their advancement.

It remains to be seen how many people can break the limitations of the Seventy-Two Desolate Powers this time.

For the clansmen who were expected to break through the power of the Seventy-Two Desolations, Shen Can personally taught them another stance training method, and the clan also provided third-tier meat to double their food intake.

Five days later at noon.

A golden fireball appeared in the western sky, streaked across the sky, and fell into the distant mountains and fields.

A deafening roar erupted, sending plumes of smoke and dust soaring into the sky.

Before long, streaks of golden light appeared on the horizon, coming from the west, and a rain of golden fire fell from the sky.

It's scorching hot!
"Quickly, quickly, go underground!"

Upon seeing this, Shen Can roared.

Huotang, realizing what was happening, also called out to his clansmen as they headed towards the underground cavern.

Before long, there were no people left on the mountain where the tribe lived.

Fire rained down in the sky, and it wasn't until it appeared outside the clan's mountain that Shen Can finally saw the enormous golden figure wreathed in flames.

"Three legs, it's a golden crow!"

Passing through the concealed entrance to the underground channel, Huotang and Shen Can looked up at the distant sky.

Its enormous, crimson-gold body was a thousand feet in size, and with each flap of its wings, countless fireballs would fall, igniting the mountains.

After the first golden crow, which was relatively clear, appeared, one after another golden fireballs appeared in the sky in the distance.

In the blink of an eye, it quickly disappeared into the horizon.

But wherever they went, the mountains and fields were already ablaze.

"This is arson."

Huotang also realized what was happening.

Fortunately, the vegetation around the clan's territory had been cleared away, creating a vast, treeless area.

Fire rained down from the sky, and thick smoke billowed up, but because there was no vegetation, it was quickly extinguished.

There were many ventilation openings in the underground culvert, and many tribesmen were gazing into the void, witnessing a terrifying scene.

Meanwhile, the various vassal tribes that migrated into the mountains also witnessed the scene of the golden sun passing through and fire rain falling.

Some of them hadn't even finished digging the underground channels, so they had to dig caves in the huge mountains as their dwellings.

Streaks of fire descended from the sky, crashing against the mountainside and falling into the valley.

……

"The Golden Crow is coming!"

A golden crow spreads its wings in mid-air, its golden eyes seemingly sparkling with fire, illuminating the mountains and valleys below.

Amidst the raging flames, one could see an area where fallen flames failed to ignite.

It rose into the air, rapidly approaching from afar, opened its huge mouth, and spat out a massive fire dragon onto the area where no wildfires had yet broken out.

Even though the fire dragon didn't reach the vicinity of the clan's territory, the heat around the clan's territory mountain surged several times over, just like a volcanic eruption.

The heat penetrated the soil and rocks, reaching deep into the ground, causing the water in the culvert to evaporate rapidly.

After flying over the mountain forest twice, the golden crow finally spread its wings and flew away.

Seeing that the golden crow had circled twice and then left, Huotang breathed a long sigh of relief.

Shen Can also breathed a sigh of relief. If he had known earlier that it was Jinwu who started the fire, he wouldn't have cleared the firebreak so crudely. At the very least, he would have made a show of it and left some areas that could be set on fire.

Fortunately, the Golden Crow was a man of great experience and looked down on everyone, so he didn't bother with him.

Looking into the distance, the golden bird in the sky flew east and south.

Tweet!
At that moment, a high-pitched cry reverberated through the sky.

Two more golden crows spread their wings and flew out from the direction of the Giant Mountain Range, skimming the edge of the Blazing Flame Clan's territory and heading southeast.

Looking deeper into the Juyue Mountains, wildfires raged, and thick smoke billowed.

Boom boom boom!
The earth gradually began to tremble.

Shen Can appeared on the top of the mountain and looked into the distance. The mountains blocked his view, and he could not see anything at all. He could only feel the mountains shaking.

"It's too far. I've already sent people to investigate."

Huotang also emerged from the culvert, looking somewhat tired. He had been startled when the Golden Crow charged toward the clan's territory.

Faced with this terrifying, colossal beast, Blazing Flame had no power to resist.

The tremors continued for several days afterward, and no useful information was sent back by clansmen who went out to patrol inside and outside the tribe.

"Enlarge the ventilation openings as much as possible, so that the clansmen can slip out in batches and spread out as much as possible to find a warm place in the mountains to cultivate."

Seeing that the fire source energy was so strong, Shen Can and Huo Tang discussed it and decided to break up the group and disperse the clansmen.

As long as it can be dispersed into a sky full of stars, even if there is danger, it can only affect a part of it.

Moreover, it's not safe for everyone to stay in the underground channel. If the Golden Crow returns, the burst of energy could easily affect many people.

The order was quickly disseminated, and from the clan's territory to various settlements, figures continuously left the underground channel and headed into the mountains, searching for suitable places to cultivate.

The golden crow only appears once every few years, and it even sets fire to the place itself; such an opportunity may only come once in a lifetime.

In Shen Can's perception, some golden fire energy appeared in the void. Previously, it was all red. This change only occurred after the Golden Crow appeared.

He only tried cultivating for two days, but he already felt the benefits of the golden fire source power. It was even hotter and his spirituality was more abundant than before.

If one can cultivate in this environment for a long time, one's combat power will increase by at least 20-30% after advancing to the Heavenly Vein level.

Such an opportunity cannot be missed.

In addition to the main tribesmen of the Blazing Flame Clan, Shen Can, under the guise of sacrificial rites and temple rites, also bestowed upon the vassal tribes a mid-level Ape Stance Kung Fu.

Originally, he hadn't planned to pass on the Ape Stance Skill so quickly, but time was of the essence, and such a good training environment was rare and hard to come by once it was gone.

The great fire that Jinwu set ablaze in the Juyue Mountains quickly spread into the distance after burning for several days, leaving behind a dark and gloomy forest.

Huotang personally arranged for the clansmen to first be dispersed to the mountains and fields to cultivate, and then began to go to various vassal tribes to promote the dispersed cultivation plan.

At this time, the previously built underground canal came into play. With lakes and marshes drying up and rivers ceasing to flow, the water storage tank in the underground canal became the only water source available.

While the Blazing Flame Clan seized the opportunity presented by this disaster to begin large-scale cultivation, the region south of the North was far from peaceful.

In the miasma-filled swamp connecting the two places, the miasma was burned away by the flames, the low miasma trees were turned to ashes, and the swamp that had trapped people was dried up by the flames.

Chirp! Chirp!
In the territory of Xiaoyang, which is right next to the swamp, a golden crow let out an angry cry, and two golden suns appeared under its wings, which it blasted at the Kuafu giant that was chasing after it.

The owl-like creatures, no longer as ferocious as before, fled in terror from the cave, running in all directions.

The giants trampled through their territory, and no member of the Owl Sun Clan dared to stop them; even the leaders of the various branch clans fled without a trace.

This group of Xiaoyang Clan members were unlucky. They were hiding well when the giants and golden crows started fighting and ended up in their hiding place.

South of the Xiaoyang tribe's territory, on the vast plains, giants and golden crows were also fighting, flattening human tribes' territories and trampling large pits into the fields.

Fortunately, these are all lands of the Sky Clan, and the Human Clan has long since retreated into the mountains and forests or hidden underground.

At this point, it mainly depends on whether our ancestors will protect us.

……

The Kuafu tribe used their stone spears and bone clubs to strike the sky, and the Golden Crow flapped its wings and flew high.

The moment the Kuafu tribe retrieves their weapons, the Golden Crow will fall from the sky and strike with its claw.

The moves were very provocative, which made the Kuafu (a mythical creature) shout loudly in anger.

The two sides pulled and tugged repeatedly, leaving the giant covered in overlapping wounds, while some of the golden crows had lost many feathers.

The giant Kuafu is fighting ahead, while thousands of miles behind, another Kuafu is sleeping with a baby in his arms and mountains as his pillow.

At this moment, the dozen or so golden crows that had been responsible for setting the fires flew back and rushed towards the rear of the Kuafu tribe to hunt down the young Kuafu.

Soon, hundreds of Kuafu and hundreds of Golden Crows started a massive melee on the spot.

Sometimes, the two sides only exchange one move before their positions are already dozens of miles away.

As they fought and moved, the resulting fire and stone coalesced into fiery hurricanes that relentlessly ravaged the land.

In a short time, from south to north, large areas of both the Xiaoyang Clan and the Human Clan were turned into battlefields by the two races.

Faced with the constant falling flames and boulders, illusory human spirits emerged from the forests to begin resisting the dangers posed by the energy waves. However, for the superior tribes, their spirits were simply insufficient to withstand the flames and falling rocks, forcing them to disperse and retreat towards the edge of the battlefield.

However, some tribes were not so lucky. No matter how far they retreated to the edge, Kuafu and Jinwu would reappear in their sights soon afterward, forcing them to keep running.

In a mountain range somewhere in Ji, the sacrificial spirits dissipated in the void like rain of light, and the clansmen were scattering in all directions, trying to avoid the battle between Kuafu and Jinwu that had spread beyond the mountains.

But then a rain of fire fell from the sky, enveloping most of the mountain range and threatening to devour the humans within.

A crimson halberd appeared in the sky, and a golden crow burst out from it, crying out loudly above the mountains, swirling up the falling flames and burning the rocks to ashes.

Seeing his attack dissipate, the enraged Kuafu grabbed a mountain and slammed it backward.

The mountain range was split open by the halberd, revealing a gaunt old man whose body looked lifeless, but whose eyes shone as brightly as the sun and moon.

Holding a golden crow halberd, he points it at the golden crow and Kuafu.

“Chih-ha-ga…”

Kuafu spoke angrily, then suddenly paused, revealing that it was the language of the Kua tribe.

Then it roared, "You old human, you've been following me all this way, how many have you managed to save?"

The old man remained silent, his inner energy rising and falling in a strange and unsettling way.

"Let's see when you die!"

With a cry, the golden crow spread its wings and flew away into the distance.

Kuafu stared wide-eyed at the old man, then turned and chased after the golden crow.

As the Golden Crow and Kuafu disappeared into the distance, the old man's figure vanished in a flash.

Soon, the fighting area that had expanded from the two tribes began to shrink, retreating from Ji to the northern mountains and forests.

At this time, a battle between Kuafu and the Golden Crow entered the northern lands.

Along the way, mountains were uprooted by Kuafu and smashed towards the Golden Crow.

The golden crow kept spewing flames downwards, and the two sides clashed back and forth, splattering drops of blood.

The two sides fought and retreated intermittently.

During the fight, whenever blood dripped, whether it was the blood of Kuafu or the Golden Crow, Kuafu would grab the nearby soil and stuff it into his mouth.

And so, the two enormous creatures ravaged the northern lands. The Golden Crow, seeing the towering mountains to the north, wanted to spread its wings and fly south.

The giant Kuafu did not let it escape. Whenever the Golden Crow exposed its back to Kuafu, Kuafu would pluck out one or two feathers.

Before long, the area around the anus was almost completely plucked bald.

The golden crow, enraged, began to howl. Now that it had no hair on its rear end, it would be ridiculed when it returned to its tribe.

Ignoring the towering mountains, they turned and engaged Kuafu in battle. The two roared and howled, their clashes sounding like thunder.

Entering the mountains, Kuafu was like a fish in water, grabbing a mountain peak here and uprooting a hill there, smashing it so that the golden crow in the sky roared angrily.

……

Far away, where the two colossal objects clashed, Shen Can and Huo Tang hid in a corner of the mountain, watching the massive figure's earth-shattering power from afar.

At this point, two months had passed since the first golden crow appeared.

Looking around, some scattered green grass has already sprouted in some of the forests that were scorched by the flames.

"When will my Blazing Flame Tribe be able to produce such a powerful warrior?"

Huotang dwells among the rocks, its eyes filled with awe and longing for powerful creatures.

Shen Can squinted as he examined the Golden Crow and the Kuafu Giant, wishing he could capture these two enormous figures in his own eyes.

Witnessing a battle between powerful races up close is a rare and precious opportunity.

The golden crow breathes fire, turning the sun into a blazing inferno; the giant raises his hand, solidifying mountains; one side controls the flames, the other the power of the earth.

The origin of human witchcraft was discovered through observation in this way.

The battle between the two colossal creatures did not extend northward to the Blazing Flame Clan's territory, but instead continued northeastward, towards the direction of the Great Wild Marsh.

The Great Wilderness Lake to the east of Zhiyan is part of the Great Wilderness Lake in the eastern part of Yongyi.

At this time, some Kuafu and Jinwu were still fighting in Yongyi, but some of the pioneers of the two tribes had already arrived at the Eastern Great Swamp.

As the golden crows struggled to fly high above the swamp, trying to avoid the thick moisture, the giant Kuafu plunged into the swamp one after another, drinking deeply.

After a hearty drink, they roared to the sky.

Then, one giant after another roared across the vast mountains and fields.

Upon hearing the commotion, the Kuafu tribesmen who were still dragging their feet in battle quickened their pace, leaving behind a scene of devastation in the mountains and plains.

After hundreds of enormous giants entered the swamp, the water level visibly began to drop.

These giants had stomachs like bottomless pits; some stood upright with their mouths open, and a stream of water flew up from the swamp and poured into their mouths.

The fish, shrimp, and aquatic beasts in the water were also swallowed whole by the giant.

While Kuafu was drinking water, the Golden Crow tribe could have easily escaped the battle and flown far away across the marshland.

But these golden crows flapped their wings high in the sky, forming a golden sea of ​​fiery clouds that rapidly evaporated the water in the great swamp.

The water in the swamp began to bubble, and some fish and shrimp immediately turned belly up, their skin turning bright red.

Seeing this, the giants burst into laughter, swallowed the cooked fish and shrimp whole, and then challenged the golden crow high in the sky.

Finally, when the giant Kuafu was off guard, two golden crows swooped down from the fiery ocean in the sky, their sharp claws piercing through the two smaller Kuafus, before carrying them up into the sky.

Kuafu, who had been laughing loudly, suddenly flew into a rage, and giant spears shot into the air, piercing through the fiery clouds in the sky.

The golden crows had already dispersed, and all the giant spears had missed their mark.

The golden crow cried out in the sky and soared into the air towards the captured Kuafu, taking a piece of flesh and blood from him each time.

Before long, the two little Kuafu were devoured by the Golden Crow.

This sparked another major battle between the two sides.

……

Deep within the ravines of the Great Swamp, the colossal Nine-Headed Willow awakens from its slumber.

A terrifying aura emanated from the giant serpent's body, causing the underwater world to tremble.

As the only alien king of the Eastern Great Swamp, Xiang Liu sensed the changes around him and burst out of the water with the power of the vast water.

Nine heads looking up...

"Ow..."

Then, he cried out halfway through.

Before Xiang Liu could even close his nine mouths, his body sank into the water and raced wildly into the distance.

Forget it, forget it. It's a large-scale war between human clans, so it, as an alien beast, won't get involved.

……

To the southwest of Daze lies a swamp filled with a foul stench.

The flames of the falling golden crow quickly evaporated the moisture.

Here, on the edge of the great marsh, the stench was scorched by the flames, and black plague worms, unable to withstand the heat, crawled out of the mud.

But as soon as they emerged, they burst open like beans, with a crackling sound echoing all around.

Click!

Deep in the swamp, a massive figure covered in bulges was also awakened by the heat.

The mud and water that had gathered around it evaporated, causing the bumps on its body to burst open, releasing countless plague worms that rolled out, and it lost its life in its slumber.

The plague beast, whose body was teeming with plague worms, suddenly regained consciousness and began to burrow downwards.

But the mud and water here had long since dried up. As it dragged its body forward, the bulges on its body kept breaking apart, and dead plague insects fell down one after another.

……

As the water level of the Eastern Great Marsh dropped, the water in the Great Wild Marsh, which was an appendage of the Great Marsh, quickly flowed back into the Eastern Great Marsh.

In just one day, only a few scattered pools and puddles remained in Ono Sawa, where countless aquatic beasts and fish struggled and jumped.

As the water level dried up, the ruins of an ancient building, hidden underwater, were revealed in the northwest of Ono-zawa.

On the west side of the Great Lake, Huotang and Shen Can stood in front of a water beast trapped in shallow water, and looked out into the distance of the Great Lake.

Looking around, there were so many fish, shrimp, crabs, and beasts that they were countless.

After a moment of hesitation, Huotang turned and rode towards the approaching Lieshan Kui.

Soon, a flare shot into the sky and exploded.

However, the signal arrow was sent back, and the tribesmen were not clear about the specific situation, so they had to come back to confirm.

Huotang mounted Lieshan Kui and turned to leave.

"Ah Chan, don't move."

"I'll go back to the tribe and call for help."

　Some writers are experiencing writer's block; they need to move on to the next plot point and work out the subsequent storylines. One update will be posted at noon.
