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

Chapter 152 I have already hidden my divine power, so let's fight without restraint!

The five elements of blood energy surged into Shen Can's dantian, instantly expanding it to a range of sixty feet.

At the same time, the instant his blood energy burst through his dantian, Shen Can clearly felt the shockwave coursing through his entire body.

Whether it's flesh and blood, bones, or especially the nine celestial veins, the backlash originating from the blood and qi rebounded back along the celestial veins.

Under this powerful counterattack, if the martial artist's own strength is insufficient, their Heavenly Meridian will be torn apart, along with their flesh and bones, which will also be torn apart and shattered.

Fortunately, his celestial meridians were wide and his bones were extremely strong. The blood energy that surged back washed over his entire body, causing his body to light up with beast patterns.

The outward manifestation was that the body trembled violently the instant the divine treasure was struck.

Shen Can used his divine sense to examine his own body, and with each breath, he drew the turbulent blood energy back into his dantian, where it gathered into a five-colored torrent and fell back into his dantian.

According to his deduction, the most taboo thing when opening the dantian is to run out of energy, which will only interrupt the advancement process.

A rumbling sound rang out as the Five Elements Blood Qi once again washed over the dantian. The shattered fragments of the dantian were devoured by the Blood Qi and quickly transformed into energy replenishment, continuing to wash over the surrounding area of ​​the dantian and constantly expanding its range.

According to the records of the Giant Tree Lord, when he opened up his dantian, he created a divine treasure with a range of twenty-nine zhang.

According to the records of the Luoshui Bo clan, the Luoshui Bo clan leaders of all generations advanced to the Divine Realm, with the one who opened up a Dantian of sixty-nine zhang (approximately 33 meters) the largest.

The larger the divine treasure is opened up, the stronger its foundation naturally is.

Shen Can mobilized his Heavenly Meridian Blood Qi three times in a row as he fell down, and the area of ​​his Dantian expanded to a hundred feet.

Click!

A crack appeared at the edge of the dantian, showing a tendency to spread towards the body.

Shen Can wasn't in a hurry; he focused his blood energy on the crack.

In the blink of an eye, the range of his dantian reached over 120 zhang, and the dantian began to shake violently, as if it were about to collapse.

Shen Can was prepared for this. The five-colored blood energy in his dantian quickly circulated, and the five colors of metal, wood, water, fire and earth quickly generated each other and transformed into the green wood element energy.

The vitality originating from the blood and qi of wood instantly filled the dantian, and the vast vitality began to repair the cracks.

Feeling the stinging pain in his dantian lessen, Shen Can breathed a sigh of relief.

The Five Elements theory was indeed not a waste of time.

The cyan blood energy, like fine wine, repeatedly washed over the newly opened dantian, causing large cracks to shrink rapidly, while smaller cracks were completely repaired.

Around the dantian, a five-colored area emerged, which was the newly opened divine treasure wall, similar to the celestial vein wall.

After the divine treasure was opened up, the nine celestial veins had a place to converge, forming a complete cycle of the heavens.

Blood energy slowly flows down from the Heavenly Vein, constantly cleansing the Divine Treasury, while the blood energy within the Divine Treasury surges into the Heavenly Vein, creating a scene of endless life.

However, once the advancement is complete, the seemingly turbulent blood energy becomes thinner after being consumed and dispersed, and even the newly opened divine treasures cannot be completely covered.

Shen Can opened his eyes and swallowed the source stones and witch medicine in front of him in large gulps, quickly refining them into blood energy that surged into his celestial veins and divine treasures.

Soon, the azure blood energy engulfed the entire divine treasure, and the resulting cyclical energy began to nourish the flesh and bones.

Roar!
As the blood and energy washed over the bones, the beast patterns lit up.

In a daze, a Kui Niu appeared within the animal pattern, exuding an aura of majesty.

Besides the Kui Niu, four other wild beast marks appeared, but compared to the Kui Niu, they were only illusory.

The next realm of the Divine Treasury is the Beast Form Realm. Shen Can was not surprised to see the Kui Niu mark appear in his body.

Although his advancement experience did not mention that the mark of a wild beast would appear after opening the divine treasure.

However, his cultivation situation is quite different from that of these Divine Treasure Warriors.

The reason why the Kui Niu mark is so clear is simply because when he transformed into a Kui Niu, he saw the appearance of the Kui Niu in a dreamlike scene.

As for the other four types of wild beasts, what we see are the divine forms of wild beasts with ordinary bloodlines. If we want to truly solidify the imprint, we would probably have to observe the ancestors among the four types of wild beasts.

A continuous stream of wood-based blood energy washed over Shen Can's body, and after just three days, he felt that his advancement was almost stable.

There was no severe injury as described by the middle-aged sacrificial spirit elder. Similarly, in the experiences of Luoshui and the Giant Tree Lord, there are records of breakthrough injuries.

It wouldn't be accurate to say he wasn't injured at all, but the injuries he sustained during the breakthrough were minor and he recovered quickly.

There are many reasons for this situation, but Shen Can believes there is only one main reason.

The physiques of others at the same level are too poor.

When the divine treasure is attacked, the violent energy rebounds upwards, shaking the heavenly meridians and flesh, and tearing apart the dantian and divine treasure. How could one not explode and die?

Even if the dantian can be kept intact, the force of the backlash can tear apart the celestial meridians. If the celestial meridians are broken, how can one gather blood energy to continue the attack?
In short, having the power to open up the divine treasure, one's own weakness cannot withstand it.

If the power is too weak, the divine treasure cannot be opened.

In light of this, Shen Can reflected on his cultivation process.

Prior to this, he had not realized that tempering his physical body, condensing the power of the 108 Desolations to advance to the Heavenly Vein from the Mountain Opening Realm, and then giving birth to the Kui Niu Divine Form, with beast patterns growing on his bones and flesh, were all unexpected.

It was precisely this unexpectedness that allowed him to easily withstand the backlash from advancing to the Divine Realm.

Of course, physical strength is only one aspect; there are also the Five Elements Hidden Treasures Breaking Method derived from it, as well as many witchcraft medicines and source stones.

However, the latter two are both external forces; ultimately, the martial artist's own physical strength is still crucial.

In short, they observed the cultivation of wild beasts but failed to cultivate their physical bodies.

That's the real problem.

This forced Shen Can to focus his attention on his Wild Beast Battle Body.

It seems that the experiment on cultivating the Wild Beast Battle Body that I wanted to do before needs to be put on the agenda.

The Wild Beast Battle Body gave him a powerful physique similar to that of a wild beast; he is a living example of that.

Rumble!
With a single thought, the blood energy within Shen Can's recently calmed divine treasure surged forth, rushing into his celestial veins and circulating throughout his entire body.

Its speed was as fast as lightning, and the animal patterns on its golden bones lit up instantly.

The surging vitality of blood burst forth from his body, releasing a vast and ancient beastly aura.

As the beast patterns lit up, Shen Can's bones expanded with a series of explosions, and his entire body grew at a visible speed.

During this process, he looked inward and discovered that among the five beast patterns that had been unified and merged, the one belonging to the Kui Niu had absorbed the most blood energy, which immediately overwhelmed the other four beast forms.

As the Wild Beast Battle Body unfolded, the blood energy overflowing from its body converged into a plume of bloody smoke, shooting straight up to the top of the training ground, piercing through the cover of earth and stone, and surging onto the ground.

Above them was the Spirit Tree, and the Azure Phoenixes, trembling with fear from the surging blood energy, fell from the tree in all sizes.

Then, the adult pheasant hurriedly grabbed the chick and flew quickly toward the distant houses.

We have to move! This time we absolutely have to move!

……

Shen Can, who manifested his beast battle form, carefully sensed the changes in his body and found that the Kui Niu-like state accounted for 70% of the entire battle form's divine form, while the other four beasts were suppressed to 30%.

Boom!
A thunderous sound, like a grand bell, rang in my ears once again.

In the blink of an eye, Shen Can's eyes turned bloodshot.

Many wild beasts have blood-red eyes, and the spiritual fluctuations they release are chaotic and disordered, indicating a lack of clear consciousness.

However, Shen Can's thoughts were not confused by his envy; instead, they were clearer than ever before.

The thumping sounds in his ears didn't stop. It was as if an ancient and terrifying beast, the giant Kui, had descended into his senses, trying to drag him into chaos.

"town!"

In an instant, an immense and unparalleled battle intent surged forth from the divine treasure, sweeping across the entire body along the celestial veins, washing away the hidden chaos and bloodlust within the beast patterns.

……

Aoshan Bobu.

At the ancestral temple, the stone drums resounded.

It shook the world once again.

The old man with the cane reappeared, his eyes fixed on the stone drum with a gloomy and uncertain look. "Go and invite the clan leader here. This matter is not over yet!"

……

The Blazing Flame Section.

The beast retracted into his body, and Shen Can felt the changes within him. He was relieved to find that his flesh and blood had not been corrupted by the beast transformation.

The blood energy within the Divine Treasury is even more intense, and compared to when it was in the Heavenly Vein, it can circulate throughout the body, constantly cleansing the flesh and blood.

The foundation that martial artists accumulate by observing the cultivation of wild beasts is equivalent to planting the 'seeds' of wild beasts.

When a martial artist reaches the Divine Treasure Realm, their blood and energy become even more intense. With continuous tempering of their physical body, the 'seed' of wild beasts will 'sprout'.

According to the records of the Luoshui clan throughout history, one of them only began to transform into a beast sixty years after advancing to the Divine Realm, and was occasionally affected by the violent and bloodthirsty aura of wild beasts.

Shen Can himself was affected as soon as he advanced, mostly because of the Wild Beast Battle Body.

……

As Shen Can left the cultivation grounds and arrived at the ancestral temple, he was blocked by the little dragonfish.

It has been waiting for several days.

"Give me a bite, quick, I can't wait to nibble on you."

The little dragonfish sniffed Shen Can's face intensely, its two large, dark golden eyes suddenly constricting.

"I have rendered service to the tribe, I have brought rain to the tribe!"

"Let's talk about it in a few days."

"Give me a bite, give me a bite quickly."

……

"You said it, I'll come back in a few days."

The little dragonfish left unwillingly, clearly sensing the commotion caused by Shen Can's breakthrough.

Didn't you see that all the phoenixes on the spirit tree have moved away? Sleeping in the tree is too nerve-wracking; they tremble constantly from the depths of their blood. Even birds can't stand it anymore.

Shen Can did not stay in the clan for long before setting off south to Ji.

The fact that Ji Di has openly established a clan this time has caused quite a stir, and it is unknown whether it will trigger a large-scale attack by Xiao Yang.

……

The Three Fire Departments.

As more and more scattered tribes came to join them, the city of the tribe expanded further, and it seemed that the number of tribesmen gathered was about to reach one million.

Outside the city gates built of black stone, crowds surged.

In the distance outside the city, a troop of cavalry escorted a black chariot away.

On the city wall, Huotang and Huoning stood with their hands behind their backs, watching the chariot disappear into the end of the wasteland before turning their gaze away.

"What number is this?"

"That's the eleventh one."

Huo Ning spoke up, saying that since the clan's sacrificial ceremony was announced to all directions, Xiao Yang had not come in the past few months, but the tribes of Ji and Luo had appeared every now and then.

The one who just left was from the Tieyangbo tribe, which, of course, is an outdated tribe.

The purpose of their visit was said to be a formality, but Huo Ning felt that something was amiss.

There are too many visiting tribes, either top-tier tribes or outdated tribes.

Logically speaking, the Sanhuo tribe's territory was located on the east side of the Guimu River, belonging to the area of ​​the Jishanbo tribe.

If a clan is established here, all members below the Bo tribe must be subordinate to Jishan. It is necessary to go to Jishan to determine the names and titles of superiors and inferiors.

If it were a Bo tribe, like Yanran, it would be equivalent to taking a piece of Ji land directly from the Jishan Bo tribe, which would be equivalent to standing on equal footing with Jishan.

Currently, the Sanhuo tribe is situated in the area between Jishan and Yanran, and it is the largest tribe that has been established in the Xiaoyang region over the past few years.

The tribe also possessed bronze chariots, making it an extremely powerful and superior tribe overall.

However, the envoys from Jishan and Yanran were very friendly when they arrived.

There was no mention of your Sanhuo tribe being established and subordinate to my Jishan, nor was there any threat from Yanran, so you might as well submit to Jishan.

Whenever they arrived at any of the tribes that followed, they would inquire about everything, trying to find out the true nature of the Three Fire Tribes.

As the chariots drove away, scattered figures could still be seen heading towards the Three Fire Clan City.

These are all here to join the Sanhuo tribe. As for how many of them are spies from other tribes, it's not clear.

After the Spirit Sacrifice's intervention last time, the Blood Witches and Blood Warriors should not dare to come again.

"Chieftain, I don't understand this at all."

Huo Ning pondered for a moment.

Huotang is currently staying in the Sanhuo tribe under the name of a clan elder.

"I don't understand it either. Xiaoyang isn't attacking. This situation is a bit strange."

Huotang spoke softly, revealing that while the Three Fires Tribe appeared relaxed, its internal security had been extremely tight over the past few months.

People from the Juyue Mountains kept coming to join the tribe's army or hide among the tribe members in the city.

But the scene now is surprisingly calm.

……

under night.

Huo Tang was cultivating in the Three Fire Ancestral Temple when Shen Can pushed open the door and entered.

"Ah Chan".

Huo Tang, who had been awakened, lowered his guard when he saw Shen Can standing in front of him.

"Chief, have these past few months been difficult?"

Shen Can immediately noticed the worry on Huo Tang's face.

When he entered the Sanhuo tribe, he saw that the number of tribesmen had almost doubled.

It seems that during the months he was away, the tribe not only escaped attack, but its strength almost doubled.

Huo Tang smiled wryly. If Xiao Yang attacked, he really wouldn't be afraid.

The quieter it is, the more you feel like someone is plotting something.

Shen Can immediately prescribed a dose of medicine for Huo Tang, and with a wave of his hand, he said, "I've already advanced to the fourth level, so go all out!"

what!
Huotang was stunned for a long time, then burst into laughter.

"Hahaha……"

"Our Blazing Flame Division now has a fourth-tier expert!"

"Hahaha……"

Huo Tang didn't ask Shen Can how he broke through to the fourth rank, because even if he told him, Shen Can probably wouldn't understand.

It's not important to him right now; what's important is that he's gained confidence.

Having a fourth order is worlds apart from not having one.

"I'll go get the wine!"

After laughing heartily, Huotang hurriedly left the ancestral temple and soon returned carrying two wine jars.

"Come on, Ah-Can, let's go all out!"
