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

Chapter 148 Gathering troops in Ji, re-establishing the clan!
After leaving the Giant Tree tribe, Shen Can also gave up the idea of ​​going to other declining tribes.

Instead, they pondered the possibility of finding the Luoshui Bo tribe, as mentioned by the giant sheep.

You know what, that's actually quite likely.

Like those in the Divine Treasury Realm, the longer they live, the weaker their combat power becomes in their old age, let alone an old man who uses such strange methods to maintain himself.

Each time a bloodline is granted, there is a high probability that the combat power will decrease.

The giant ram had no idea that he had blasted away the bloodstains left by the divine treasure of the Luoshui Bo tribe.

The blood seal had a very strange aura at the time, and now that I think about it, it seemed very strong, but he killed it with just a few punches.

At that time, Shen Can's martial arts realm was still at the seventh level of the Heavenly Meridian, but after using the combat power of the Wild Beast Battle Body, it was comparable to the ninth level of the Heavenly Meridian.

The mark left by a Divine Treasure Realm cultivator could be easily destroyed by someone at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm; it was indeed quite weak.

Of course, this is relative.

The shattered blood seal would actually be quite formidable against someone like Jiang Zhen or Jiang Yuan, who were at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm.

Outside the Giant Tree Clan headquarters, Huotang watched from afar as Shen Can walked out.

"How about it?"

"It went more smoothly than expected."

Shen Can spoke up, then continued, "The Giant Tree Chieftain treated the experience gained from advancing through the Divine Treasure as a business transaction."

Huo Tang was somewhat surprised by these words.

However, considering the predicament of the Giant Tree Clan, it becomes understandable. Without the presence of a Divine Treasure Realm expert, the clan's experience in advancing to the Divine Treasure Realm truly becomes a secret for others to pry into.

If the giant tree still possesses its strength, it will naturally have no fear of those who might spy on it from all directions.

Since we can't hold onto it, we might as well exchange it for some resources.

"However, these advanced Divine Treasure Warriors all had a bit of luck involved. They either took advantage of favorable timing and location or used rare and precious materials, such as the inner core of wild beasts or beast blood."

"I have seen the method of advancement of the Giant Tree Lord. While making use of the essence of wood, he also prepared as many witch medicines and source stones as possible before he was able to advance to the Divine Treasure."

The experience is not diminished by being a rubbing. After his promotion, the Giant Tree Earl recorded in detail his breakthrough process and the preparations he had made beforehand.

A large amount of source energy is indeed needed beforehand to ensure that one has enough blood energy to break through the divine treasure during the breakthrough process.

In the absence of a primordial vein in the tribe, the more witch medicine and Originium, the better.

Lord Giantwood also specifically mentioned that refining source power and witch medicine is somewhat slow, not as convenient as the source power released by the formed primordial vein.

In addition, a large quantity of healing potions should be prepared so that if the injuries sustained during the attack on the divine treasure become too severe, some can be repaired in time.

Regarding how to circulate blood energy when attacking the Divine Treasury, Lord Jumu also wrote some insights, mainly about condensing blood energy into a bundle.

This is based on experience, not yet at the level of becoming a secret technique.

The two did not linger and headed towards the Sanhuo tribe.

Previously, due to the large number of Xiaoyang Clan members hunted down, Shen Can hid the Antelope Beast, the Azure Phoenix Soldiers, and Luo Feng in the Three Fire Tribes for safety reasons.

Now, he plans to ask Luo Feng again.

As the bloodline successor arranged by the old man of the Luoshui clan, Luo Feng should know more about the old man.

……

The Three Fire Departments.

On the wasteland, a massive black iron city sits, stretching for dozens of miles, with its four city gates each a hundred feet high.

At the city gate, martial artists came and went in a constant stream, with over a thousand people entering and leaving in a short period of time.

Inside the city, houses stood in rows, watchtowers were like a forest, and people were everywhere.

Over the past year, the Three Fire Tribe has successively annexed several tribes, and its population has exceeded 500,000.

With such a large population, the daily consumption is enormous, requiring many warriors to be sent out hunting every day.

Outside the city, rows of fields stand side by side, and many figures are working in the fields.

Squads of tribal soldiers moved in and out of the city. Giant crossbows gleamed with a cold light on the city walls, and large banners fluttered in the wind.

……

under night.

The moonlight was like water, and from a distance, the city of the Three Fire Clan looked like a giant beast lying on the ground, with torches standing tall throughout the city.

On the city wall, you can still see fire dragons moving about; those are the tribal soldiers patrolling the city.

Two figures headed towards the Three Fire Clan City; they were Shen Can and Huo Tang, who had returned from the Giant Wood Tribe.

However, as he walked, Shen Can stopped.

"Chief, you find a place to rest outside, I'll sneak into the city and take a look."

"what happened?"

Huotang's expression froze.

He thought a lot about it. He had met Huo Ning when he came before, and he could trust the clansmen.

"I used Luoshui's name to kill so many Xiaoyang, and the Three Fire Division has Luofeng's young master's token."

Some things don't need detailed investigation; just a few clues are enough to make people guess.

Huotang nodded, then quickly retreated and disappeared into the wasteland.

This time, when he came to Ji from his clan, he did not descend directly to the Sanhuo clan's territory. Instead, he had Cangluan hide in the mountains three hundred miles away, and then secretly had his clansmen contact Huo Ning.

Having learned from the experience of the Yuanshan tribe, he had long anticipated that the Sanhuo tribe would be a mixed bag.

Huo Ning is indeed capable, but his opponents are not simply those who are capable.

Even he would find it difficult to distinguish the hidden martial artists from among so many people.

Shen Can's figure moved like a ghost, silently entering the Three Fire Clan City.

After advancing to the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm, perhaps due to the continuous cleansing of his flesh and blood by his blood energy, his divine sense has been further enhanced, now exceeding seventy feet.

His powerful divine sense enveloped the surrounding area, passing through every house in the city, hiding his figure in a dark corner, and listening to the sounds from every house he passed.

……

Three hundred miles outside the city of the Three Fire Clan.

Huotang entered the mountains and eventually arrived at the cliff where the Azure Phoenix resided.

The Azure Phoenix carved out a cave to live in, hidden among the dense cliff trees.

After the fire tower let out a whistle, the Azure Phoenix quickly peeked out and flew out.

At this moment, hidden in the distant mountains, a hawk with piercing eyes saw a phoenix taking flight.

Under the cover of night, the azure phoenix with its wings shimmering with a bluish light is quite conspicuous.

Even though Cangluan quickly led Huotang into the cave, she was still captured by Xiaoyang warriors.

"Has anyone gone into the mountains these days?"

"No, I didn't go out of the cave."

The Azure Phoenix shook its head. After hiding here, it even gave up hunting and ate the Yuanxue Pills specially made by the Blazing Flame Tribe.

"Has something happened outside?"

Through the gaps in the branches at the entrance to the rock wall, the fire could see the surrounding mountains and forests, but under the cover of night, the lush green mountains and fields offered no view.

"Let's fly around and take a look, heading north."

Then, the Azure Phoenix burst out of the cave, with the Fire Clan on its back. Blood energy surged around it, and crimson and blue light mixed together. It quickly transformed into a stream of light and rushed out of the mountain range, heading north.

Boom!

Then, a patch of vegetation and rocks in the mountains burst open, and a hawk and a black-feathered falcon rushed out.

The warrior Xiaoyang flipped and jumped onto Cangjun, following behind Cangluan.

"Don't get too close!"

……

"What about people!"

On the back of the falcon, after chasing for a thousand miles, Mu Zhang looked around but could no longer see the blue light.

At the same time, the wind howled like thunder above the falcon, and the phoenix spread its wings and swooped down like a sharp arrow.

not good!

The instant the wind and thunder roared, Mu Zhang urged the falcon down without hesitation.

Although it is quite strong, if it falls from such a height, it will be severely injured, if not killed.

The azure-gold eyes of the Azure Phoenix reflected the Azure Falcon and the Owl Sun Warrior on its back. Its wings whipped up countless wind blades as it fell first, forming a blue torrent in mid-air.

Clang!
On the back of the Azure Phoenix, the Fire Clan's blood energy surged, and the crimson longsword pierced through the sky, its fighting spirit and blade becoming one.

The blade energy swept across the sky for hundreds of feet, descending upon the head of the Xiaoyang warrior without reservation.

"what!"

Mu Zhang was terrified. His blood surged violently, and he jumped off the falcon. The blade grazed half of his body, and his arm instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist.

Before the falcon could even scream, it was cleaved in two by the falling crimson blade in mid-air, its body exploding into a ball of crimson fire under the impact of the blade's energy.

Mu Zhang jumped to the ground and rolled out, groaning continuously. His black fur stood on end, and he repeatedly raised his hands to unleash punches upwards.

Clang!
As the blade of light fell from the sky, a giant crimson fire ape burst forth and struck it, causing its entire body to explode with cracking sounds. It flew out like a meteor and then fell back down, shattering into countless pieces.

The Azure Phoenix swept past Mu Zhang, and then a swift, blade-like wind severed its limbs, leaving only its shattered upper body.

Huo Tang quickly concealed the owl-like sun before him and disappeared from the spot.

……

For half a month, Shen Can stayed in the city of the Three Fire Tribe.

Sure enough, it was quite a lively scene.

Within the entire clan city, the strongest in name is Huo Ning, who possesses the cultivation of the seventh level of the Heavenly Vein Realm, a level he rapidly achieved in the last two years.

In Shen Can's perception, there were at least two people at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm in the city, and he didn't know if there were any other people at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm.

The reason he discovered these two was because they were somewhat arrogant, thinking that no one could detect their presence.

"Are they waiting for me to come to them?"

Huo Ning had built a huge underground chamber in the center of the clan city, which was guarded by members of the Blazing Flame Tribe.

Although these tribesmen are elite, they are no match for a ninth-level Heavenly Vein warrior; they would probably have been exposed long ago.

After discovering the Antelope Beast, the Azure Phoenix Soldiers, and Luo Feng, she remained so obedient; she was simply waiting for him.

Besides these two martial artists at the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm, Shen Can also discovered a Blood Martial Artist hiding in the city.

Blood warriors will do anything for profit, and most of them are involved with the Xiaoyang Clan.

These blood warriors are very well hidden; the rotting aura on their bodies is mostly concealed by some kind of witchcraft.

Shen Can did not make a move. These people were all mixed in with the clan city, and making a move would be extremely easy to alert them.

……

Clan Hall.

Huo Ning is currently cultivating.

"who!"

Suddenly, Huo Ning woke up and grabbed the spear placed in front of him. He breathed a sigh of relief after recognizing Shen Can as the figure in front of him.

Immediately, his gaze turned towards the direction of the palace gate.

"I entered the city secretly, and no one noticed."

Shen Can spoke up, and it was clear from Huo Ning's change that Huo Ning also knew that the clan city was not very safe.

“Temple, I have been too presumptuous. There are too many uncertain outsiders in the clan city right now.”

Huo Ning spoke, a wry smile on his face; he felt he was losing control.

How many people are there in our tribe?

"1,300 people."

"In addition, I have two thousand Blood Sea Guards that I secretly developed, one thousand of whom are in the clan and the other thousand have been given to Huo Zhan."

The mine slave warriors under his command had all taken the Owl Yang Blood Pill; including the thousand I gave him, the total number was five thousand.

In front of Shen Can, Huo Ning honestly revealed the power he could absolutely control.

"Since our last parting at the Yuanshan tribe, I have begun to annex various tribes. However, with the appearance of the bronze chariot, many rumors have emerged about the Luoshui tribe."

Later, other young masters from Luoshui did come to my door, but fortunately I was prepared and managed to drive them away.

Later, I discovered that spies were constantly infiltrating among the tribespeople I had gathered.

Previously, an elder from the Jishanbo tribe also came to me to ask who was in control of the bronze chariot.

I said I had only met Young Master Luo Feng, and I didn't know who he was.

For some reason, this elder from Jishan did not press me too much.

Elder Jishan also told me that the Xiaoyang Clan had their eyes on the bronze chariot, and that if we encountered any danger, we could seek help from the Jishan Lilong Guard.

After speaking, Huo Ning looked at Shen Can.

"Temple Master, what do we do next?"

Shen Can did not respond to Huo Ning's words.

At this point, all that's missing is knowing the identity of the Blazing Flame Tribe.

The arrival of the Jishan Elder also demonstrated the attitude of the Jishan Earl's tribe.

Just like the rise of the Yanran tribe, if Jishan really wanted to suppress Yanran, Yanran would not be able to rise within a hundred years.

This is a lost territory occupied by Xiaoyang, where a powerful new clan has risen to prominence, which is actually recognized in Jishan.

After a moment, Shen Can spoke up, "Everyone wants to know who we are, so we can't keep it a secret forever."

"From now on, you just need to be a good clan leader of the Three Fires Tribe and keep things as they are."

"Take orders."

Hearing Shen Can say that, Huo Ning immediately felt relieved.

After leaving the clan hall, Shen Can secretly sneaked into the underground secret room and met Luo Feng.

"You're going to Luoshui too!"

In the secluded, dark room, when Shen Can inquired about the strength of Ancestor Luo Shui, Luo Feng's eyes burned with divine light.

He had followed Shen Can in driving the chariot and killed a ninth-level martial artist of the Xiaoyang Heavenly Vein.

Naturally, he knew Shen Can's true strength. Not to mention martial arts, his witchcraft was effortless. He cultivated both martial arts and witchcraft, so his strength was only greater than he had ever seen.

With his Heavenly Vein at the ninth level and unparalleled combat power, his inquiry into the strength of the Luoshui Ancestors must be for the method to advance to the Divine Treasury.

This had happened once before.

Yan Wanyun of the Yanran tribe has already been there once.

"take me!"

"I want to be on top of the chariot, watching it crush into that decaying land!"

"You need a lot of resources to advance to the Divine Treasury, and I know where the clan treasury is!"

"I also know an old guy who has a magical medicine!"

At this moment, Luo Feng's face flushed again, and he was too excited to contain himself.

"You have to take me there! We'll break in through the front gate!"

"I guarantee those good-for-nothings won't dare to stop you."

"Yes, yes, there's also a bronze chariot in the clan's treasury."

“Those old guys are terrified of death, and their fighting strength has long been extremely weak. You will definitely be able to break in.”

……

"Woo!"

"Woo!"

Finally, Shen Can stuffed a rag into Luo Feng's mouth, fearing that if he continued to talk like that, Luo Feng would explode and die.

Luo Feng let out a sob and stared wide-eyed at Shen Can.

"Don't worry, I'll take you there."

Shen Can once again witnessed the weakness of the Luo Shui Ancestor in Luo Feng's presence, which gave him confidence.

……

After questioning Luo Feng, Shen Can once again left the Three Fire Clan City quietly.

When they found Huotang, they also saw the remains of Xiaoyang, who had been chopped into human pigs by Huotang.

"You really figured it out! There's a Blood Warrior in the Three Fire Clan City who's in contact with Xiao Yang, waiting to find you!"

Shen Can also told Huo Tang about the situation inside the clan city.

After listening, Huotang said, "In that case, let's establish our clan's territory in Ji openly and honestly."

"If you want an identity, we'll give you one."

"It will also save people from constantly worrying about your identity and going to the north to find our tribe."

……

"Chieftain, this is what I think."

Shen Can tugged at the somewhat excited firelight.

They are broadly divided into the Jidi clan, which attracts attention, and the Jidi tribe hides the Blazing Flame main tribe in the Giant Mountain Range.

He then went to Luoshui, obtained the classics and advancement resources, and quietly advanced back to the Juyue Mountains.

Then, we'll give Xiaoyang a surprise.

Even if we don't kill a fourth-tier Owl Sun, but severely injure one, the battle situation in Jidi will change dramatically.

Well, it can be roughly divided into these four steps.

Of course, in order to take these steps well, Shen Can felt that he still needed to calm down and reflect.

After all, he's not using the Wild Beast Battle Body right now, and his Heavenly Vein Wisdom is still a bit short of that of Mu Tuo, who lived for over two hundred years.

That won't do; there's still plenty of room for improvement within the Heavenly Vein Realm.

Don't underestimate this old man; if pushed too far, he might bite.

Only when there is nowhere else to go can we use the Wild Beast Battle Body to amplify our combat power and have a better chance of reaching Luoshui.

At that time, he might just be able to use his strong and vigorous body to make those withered and rotten old guys green with envy.

Huo Tang readily agreed with Shen Can's suggestion.

Then, Shen Can said, "Let's go back to the tribe first and ask for help!"

The establishment of a clan is not something that can be done casually; naturally, there must be an ancestral temple, and coincidentally, there are two sacrificial spirits in the territory of the Blazing Flame Clan.

Please send one of you to oversee this region.

To avoid being wiped out when establishing a clan.

In the following six months, warriors from the Blazing Flame Clan territory continued to pass through the Owl Sun Clan territory and enter the Three Fire Tribes.

Shen Can returned to the Blazing Flame Ancestral Temple. Every day, besides consuming large amounts of witch medicine and source energy to enhance his blood and qi, he also made offerings to the sacrificial spirits and beasts, to the point that his Luan Blade was almost sparking.

The lifespan of the depleted wild beasts was increasing at a visible rate.

……

The Blazing Flame Department, Ancestral Temple.

Rumble!
A surge of energy emanated from the ancestral temple, and one after another, azure phoenixes fell from the spirit tree with a crackling sound, still trembling after hitting the ground.

It felt as if a beast king had been resurrected in the ancestral temple.

Inside the ancestral temple, remnants of witchcraft and fragments of Originium were scattered in all directions by the violent baleful energy.

Shen Can transformed into the form of a wild beast and stood in the middle of the ancestral temple.

Its enormous body, exceeding ten zhang in size, was almost touching the roof of the ancestral temple. With each breath, it seemed as if there were thunderous sounds emanating from its veins.

The nine celestial meridians within his body surged like a great river, and the churning blood and qi rolled like giant waves.

Through his relentless cultivation, the width of his Heavenly Meridian has increased threefold compared to six months ago, and his blood energy has increased five or sixfold.

Looking inward at the Heavenly Vein, one can see countless cracks appearing on its walls, being repaired little by little by the surging blood energy.

However, the injuries sustained during training are insignificant compared to the combat power gained.

As for the extra waste in cultivation, it's not even worth mentioning.

Luo Feng said that the Luo Shuibo tribe's treasury is full of source stones, and the old man also has precious medicines.

Without relentless dedication to training, how could one improve so quickly?

Without strength, how could those old guys provide him with the resources to advance to the Divine Treasure?
A moment later, Shen Can returned to his human form.

Looking down at his crotch, he thought he should prepare a few more pairs of leather pants; he still needed to consider his appearance after a fight.

"Senior, can this be considered peak combat power below the fourth rank?"

The figure of the middle-aged elder appeared in the sacrificial vessel beside him, looking at Shen Can's bare body.

After Shen Can returned, he was awakened again through a beast sacrifice at any cost.

"I don't know, I've never seen anyone like you before."

"Even the most powerful clan leader in the history of my tribe did not possess your fighting prowess during the time of the Heavenly Vein."

After a long silence, the middle-aged man spoke again.

"You've gone south to Yongyi to re-establish your clan. Are you abandoning the Dai region in the north?"

"No, we still have to go to Daidi."

Shen Can gently shook his head and said, "Perhaps Xiao Yang is not a big problem. The real enemy of my Zhiyan clan's rise is probably those old fogies in Yongyi!"

If that's the case, my tribe will need the resources from the Dai land to support the clan and allow Yongyi to be plowed again.

The middle-aged man remained silent.

Shen Can changed into a robe and walked towards the clan hall.

Now that my training is complete, it's time to head to Ji.

　I'm posting two updates today. I woke up this morning with a headache and didn't feel well all day, so I'll just post two updates totaling 11,000 words.
