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

Chapter 280 The Threefold Transformation of the Glazed Form Technique (Supplement 1)
The explosion of the jade disc occurred directly above the Aoshan Grand Formation. Its power tore through the fifth-order formation of Aoshan, turning the Aoshan tribe into ruins. There was no need for Zhiyan to make any further moves.

And so, Mount Ao was gone.

What shocked the warriors of Yongyi more than the disappearance of Aoshan was the way Aoshan was destroyed.

The news of the massive fissure stretching for hundreds of miles and the near-ruin of the Aoshan tribe's territory spread quickly.

People nearby said that on that day, they saw a sun rise from the ground and a sun set in the sky, and the two suns collided.

Later, the rumors became increasingly outrageous, claiming that a Blazing Flame Warrior summoned the sun from the sky and caused it to fall, instantly shattering Mount Ao.

The deterrent effect of the rumors was beyond imagination.

……

The Blazing Flame Clan.

The Dragon Horned Wild Beast landed in the clan's territory, carrying a nearly extinct Aoshan Turtle on its back, and went straight to the ancestral temple to pay respects to Shen Can.

"My Lord, these are the supplies that the clan chief sent back."

The dragon horn opened its mouth and spat out nearly three hundred storage pouches.

These shamanic pouches contain resources from the Bifang, Tianzheng, and Aoshan tribes.

Although Bi Fang had been emptied by Shen Can before, during the subsequent suppression, a large amount of resources were recovered from its clansmen.

As for Aoshan, protected by a fifth-order grand formation, its clan treasury was not completely destroyed, and it still managed to gather quite a few good items.

After Shen Can scanned the witch pouches with his divine sense, he kept a few of them.

"Keep the Aoshan Turtle and these few witch pouches. As for the rest, hand them over to the clan elders and put them into storage."

The shaman's bag he left behind contained shamanic artifacts, cultivation techniques, some source stones, and other items. The remaining resources were stored in the treasury as supplies for the tribe's development.

Longjiao nodded, put away the shaman's bag, and left the ancestral temple.

Shen Can, through his clone, already knew about the situation of the Aoshan tribe.

Not only were the clones injured, but even with the protection of the witch array on the old tortoise, the clansmen in the tortoise city were also affected during the energy impact.

Therefore, I need to rest for a while.

Unexpectedly, after waiting and waiting, the High Priest of the Holy Envoy Clan went to Yongyi to create a clone instead of going to a nearby place.

This grand shamanic ritual is interesting.

And then there was that final flash of blue light, which carried away the remnant soul of the Holy Envoy Clan's High Priest.

Is it really the power of the Holy Spirit?

According to Kui Ling, the Xuan Niao clan has a seventh rank, so the power of the Holy Spirit shouldn't be so weak.

If even the Star Avatar couldn't be killed, the Holy Spirit is far too weak.

This time, it was a lucky accident that helped Zhiyan gain fame. The old Xuan Turtle alone could not have caused such a commotion at Aoshan.

Battlefield ruins are a testament to strength; they are immovable and untouchable. Anyone who takes a look will know that this was the work of Zhiyan.

It can be regarded as killing the chicken to scare the monkey.

Then, Shen Can opened a magic pouch and poured out a tortoise shell.

The tortoise shell was devoid of any life, and its surface was covered with densely packed witchcraft, forming the foundation of the fifth-order grand formation of the Aoshan tribe.

As for the old Aoshan Turtle that Longjiao carried back, it was the guardian beast of the Aoshan tribe.

After the jade disc exploded, the old tortoise survived thanks to the great array separating it from the outside world, thanks to its shell.

An old tortoise at the peak of the Divine Realm—that's a valuable item for sacrifices.

As for saving it, Shen Can had no intention of doing so. This old tortoise had lived in Aoshan for thousands of years, and the possibility of subduing it was extremely small.

The old tortoise wasn't very big, only about two zhang in size, but its beastly physique allowed it to change its body at any time; this was just the old Aoshan tortoise in its shrunken form.

After enveloping the Aoshan Turtle with his divine sense, Shen Can discovered that the old turtle's appearance was somewhat similar to the turtle shell that served as the foundation of the fifth-order Aoshan Grand Array.

Besides being covered with shamanic script, the base of the tortoise shell array also bears strange characters in some places.

The text was permeated with a strong sense of bloodshed, and even though the tortoise shell array base had fallen silent, the blood-stained text still appeared crystal clear.

The tortoise shell formation base is an inanimate object, while the Aoshan guardian beast resembles a tortoise shell. After inspecting it, Shen Can made up his mind.

This tortoise shell is not only the base of the array, but also has the ability to change the wild beasts of the tortoise race.

……

The priest plundered the lifespan of a fourth-tier peak-level Aolong Turtle descendant for 4,397 years.

While the old tortoise was still breathing, Shen Can immediately sacrificed it.

These days, he has been developing magical techniques in the tribe, which has greatly depleted his beast essence, and he is about to run out of money.

Fortunately, although the High Priest did not die, only a remnant soul remained, and the problem of the clan being sealed off was thus resolved.

A group of tribesmen had already entered the Giant Mountain Range and begun hunting wild beasts.

A peak fourth-tier wild beast, with the bloodline of the Aolong Turtle, its remains can be used for many things besides being consumed by the clan's guardian beasts. For example, its shell and bones can be used for weapon forging.

After offering a portion of the meat on the altar, Shen Can then collected the corpse of the old Aoshan tortoise.

Now he has established a clan storehouse here at the ancestral temple.

The items stored inside were things he planned to use to reward meritorious or talented members of his clan in the future.

After a busy day, Shen Can returned to his residence and sat down at the desk.

On the table was a scroll made of animal hide, inscribed with the words "Three-fold Condensation of the Lapis Lazuli Method".

The derivation of this method has consumed more than 30,000 years of lifespan, but it has yielded considerable results.

After deduction, Shen Can discovered that the three-phase condensation method was completely feasible.

After the third transformation, the blood energy is indeed much more solidified, and it will show a kind of crystal-clear light.

But that's far from enough for him, because his blood energy still has room for further refinement after the third transformation.

This was only confirmed after more than ten deductions.

This reminded Shen Can of the difference between advancing to the Heavenly Vein level with thirty-six Desolate Power and advancing with seventy-two Desolate Power.

Three turns are not his limit at all.

However, this method, the "Three-Turn Condensation Glazed Technique," can now be used by martial artists at the peak of the Divine Realm.

The effect is much better than the original version, and the training will be much smoother.

Shen Can is currently cultivating according to the revised method. He plans to first condense his blood and qi to the third level, and then, based on his own changes, further deduce the method.

It's no wonder that Yongyi hasn't produced any fifth-tier beings for so many years; fifth-tier beings simply consume too many resources.

Simply condensing one's blood and qi to the point where it can solidify into a physical form is enough to support at least twenty or thirty peak-level Divine Realm warriors.

Originally, the most powerful clan in Yongyi was the Tianzheng clan, which had more than twenty Divine Realm warriors, and only two peak Divine Realm warriors including the clan's guardian beasts.

But in reality, the resources consumed by twenty early and mid-stage Divine Treasures are probably less than those of a single peak Divine Treasure attempting to reach the fifth rank.

He took out a magic bag and poured out about 50,000 various source stones.

At this moment, Shen Can's pores opened wide, and he transformed into a glutton. A large amount of source stones instantly shattered into dust, and the rich source power, like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea, was swallowed into his body one after another.

After these source energies entered the Heavenly Vein, they quickly began to form a cyclical pattern, entering the Divine Treasury again and again, and then flowing from the Divine Treasury back into the Heavenly Vein.

Shen Can continued to draw source energy into his body without stopping, letting the giant waves formed by the source energy crash against his celestial veins.

During the process of striking the Heavenly Vein, some of the blood and energy seeped into the flesh and blood, and the internal organs, bones, and battle bones were all absorbing the blood and energy.

At the same time, the multicolored, glowing blood energy continuously impacted the edge of the divine treasure, shattering one edge barrier after another and transforming it into newly opened divine snow areas.

As he refined his blood and qi, his spiritual treasures also expanded further.

Day two.

Shen Can awoke from his cultivation, having devoured all 50,000+ source stones. He estimated that with another 50,000 source stones, he could condense the third stage.

According to the normal three-stage crystallization method, he only needs about 100,000 source stones to condense the first stage.

However, during his first transformation, he had already consumed over 300,000 source stones. This was mainly because a large portion of the source power was absorbed by his flesh and bones.

It was precisely because his flesh and bones had absorbed half of the source stone's power that he was able to support the condensation of his blood energy without any worries. This transformation was different from the natural progression of cultivation. He already knew during the deduction that the length of time it took to condense blood energy depended on his own endurance.

Those with strong endurance can naturally shorten the time significantly, while those with weak endurance will need to prolong the process.

Now that the second transformation is about to be completed, it has already consumed 400,000 source stones.

The source stone, which was very durable in the Heavenly Vein Realm, became less useful after he advanced to the peak of the Divine Treasury Realm.

The amount of energy contained within a fingertip-sized Originium varies, with some having more and some having less.

Based on the blocks themselves, it's not possible to clearly show exactly how much energy is needed.

He has not yet encountered any higher-grade Originium, nor has he found any in the clan treasuries of the major tribes.

After sweeping and cleaning the ancestral temple, he headed towards his residence.

He is now very free, cultivating, deducing, and resting. As for other matters, the clan elders take care of them and rarely bother him.

As for Huoshan's work in Yongyi, he wasn't worried. With his clone overseeing things, he could cover up even if things went terribly.

Now, with the addition of the "chicken" Aoshan, it should be able to intimidate some people.

As for the situation in Daidi, I wonder what it's like.

After defeating the High Priest of the Holy Envoy Clan, Shen Can sent the Four-Colored Deer north to Daidi to deliver a message to the old clan chief, Huotang.

A month later.

Shen Can, who was meditating in a seated position, was surrounded by the five elements of blood energy, his entire body was crystal clear like the glow of the sunset, and a vast, faint yet powerful pressure instantly emanated from the hall.

The air within a radius of thousands of feet around the side hall seemed to freeze.

The blood energy surged like a giant wave, still crashing against the barrier of the divine treasure. The crystalline blood energy, like a materialized dragon, flowed through the celestial veins and poured into the divine treasure.

After being refined three times, the blood energy, just as predicted, exhibited a faint, mysterious, and glazed color.

……

Daidi, Xingchen Mountain.

Outside, the stagnant mudflats are shrouded in black mist, but inside, the landscape is lush and green, with vibrant farmland thriving in the valley.

People practicing cultivation can be seen everywhere.

Compared to twenty or thirty years ago, the number of humans living in the mountains has increased several times, now reaching more than 1.7 million.

Inside a cave, Huotang slowly walked out, a long-lost smile appearing on his face.

Since receiving the news from his clan, his gaping mouth has never closed.

After years of worry, I can finally relax.

That's a fifth-tier item.

As noon approached, a figure flew in from outside the mountain; it was Huo Zhang, who had been staying in Daidi for nearly ten years.

Ten years later, although he did not advance to the Divine Realm, his aura became more refined, and his essence, energy, and spirit were in a state of flux.

He was accompanied by Tian Dan and Shi Jun.

In recent years, the two have remained at Potian Mountain, where they have established a new mountain for inheritance, relying on the caves and grottoes of Potian Mountain.

Because the Dongze Tulou clan was quietly wiped out, other branches of the Tulou clan all want to get their hands on this area, and they are currently fighting each other.

This gave the human race tremendous room for development.

The basic tempering method is neutral and easy to learn, and it spreads very quickly. Unless you are really not cut out for cultivation, as long as you are willing to cultivate and eat more meat, you can feel your energy increasing every day.

"Old patriarch."

Upon arriving at the fire stand, the group bowed in greeting.

"Alright, I have good news for you. The crisis within our clan has been resolved. The Holy Envoy Clan, which tried to blockade us, has been completely defeated by our clansmen."

Upon hearing this, all three showed joy.

"The reason I summoned you here is to ask you to return to the tribe."

"Huo Zhang, you have found the relics of the Zhenjianbo tribe in Daidi, and you have also opened up the inheritance mountain at the old site of the Zhenjianbo tribe. Your accumulated merits are enough to advance to the Divine Treasure. You should return to your tribe and prepare to advance to the Divine Treasure."

"Tian Dan and Shi Jun, you two participated in the discovery of the Potian Mountain Relics and have been developing the Potian Heritage Mountain for many years. You can return to your clan to report your merits."

"This time when you go back, you will escort back a batch of ants."

……

Huo Zhang and his two companions rested for a day at Xingchen Mountain, and under the cover of night, they piloted their flying boat towards the Eastern Great Swamp.

There were more than thirty earthworms on the flying boat, and a group of over a hundred tribesmen were also returning to the tribe.

Now that the Holy Envoy tribe blocking the gate has been repelled, the tribespeople who have been staying in the Dai region for a long time will begin to return to the tribe in turn to visit their relatives, and new tribespeople will be sent to take their place.

The group, navigating their tortoise-shell boat, spent over twenty days arriving at the Yongshan Ruins within the Great Wilderness Marsh. They were then picked up by their waiting tribesmen and returned to their tribe without stopping.

The people who guided everyone along the way recounted the great battle with the Holy Envoy Clan.

"Oh dear, I should have known better than to go to Daidi. I've missed the chance to fight a fifth-tier opponent!"

"Haha, Commander Tian, ​​don't think that just because you're a commander and I'm a centurion, I've actually fought against a fifth-rank officer."

"Commander, me too!"

Amidst laughter and banter, the flying boat traversed mountains and valleys, returning to the tribe's territory.

Having not returned for several years, the group was momentarily stunned upon seeing the enormous spirit tree in the center of their clan's territory.

"Goodness, how much meat could you stew from such a big tree?"

"Alright, stop with the glib talk. The clan chief isn't here. Let's go pay our respects to Miao Tao and deliver the earthworms we brought back to him."

Huo Zhang spoke up, explaining that the old clan chief had given instructions that the Living Earthworm was something the temple had specifically requested.

Upon arriving at the side hall of the ancestral temple, Huo Zhang and the other two bowed in unison.

"Are you all back?"

Shen Can was also very happy to see the three of them return.

"Tell me about the Daidi matter quickly."

Huo Zhang took out a jade slip and presented it to Shen Can with both hands.

"The temples and shrines, everything we did in Daidi is recorded in this jade slip."

Shen Can immersed his divine sense into the jade slip and found that it contained a lot of information. He didn't look at it in detail and put it on the table for the time being.

"After such a long journey, I need to go back to see my family and get a good rest for a few days."

"As for the earthworms, they can be temporarily placed in the square outside the ancestral temple."

Huo Zhang and the other two bid farewell to Shen Can and quickly returned home.

Shen Can arrived outside the hall, carrying a second-tier earthworm, and headed towards the ancestral temple.

After some rituals, the earthworm was carved with shamanic symbols and transformed into a sacrificial offering.

The priest deprived the second-tier earth ant of 198 years of its lifespan.

Afterwards, Shen Can sacrificed all thirty-odd earthworms that Huo Zhang had brought.

Although each one only has a lifespan of one or two hundred years, their sheer number makes up for it. Their combined lifespan is even greater than that of a peak-level Divine Treasure Dragon Turtle.

Therefore, it would be more appropriate to use a large number of low-level wild beasts for sacrifice.

It wasn't unexpected that earthworms could be used in sacrifices to gain longevity. Although I had caught earthworms before, I hadn't taken them to the ancestral temple for sacrifices.

I'm trying this out because I haven't used it before and I'm not comfortable with it.

Actually, Xiaoyang could also be used, but most of the Xiaoyang were used to awaken the sacrificial spirits, and were not sacrificed to death by him alone.

Now, the method of deduction requires a large amount of lifespan.

An additional group of earthworms is equivalent to having an additional channel to steal one's lifespan.
