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

Chapter 285 Lu Wu: Is this how humans operate?! (Seeking monthly votes)

Chi Huo Lu Wu glanced at Lei Yu Xuan Que, and the Xuan Que was instantly struck as if by lightning, its feathers standing on end.

It was so frightened that it dared not utter another word.

Although it was Lu Wu's close beast, it dared not disobey Lu Wu.

In Lei Yuxuanque's eyes, the human tribe in front of him was already affecting the Giant Mountain Range.

With the human race's power growing, they will inevitably march on the Giant Mountain.

The human race already looks terrifying; if we wait any longer, it will become even more difficult to deal with.

Lu Wu's lantern-sized eyes gazed at the starlight in the sky. Although the Crimson Fire Lu Wu was a wild beast, it was also a descendant of a strange species from the mountains and seas, and had been spiritually gifted since childhood.

Although they couldn't understand how the falling starlight was triggered, they could vaguely guess that the starlight was related to the surging source energy within the great formation.

This is gathering the power of heaven and earth.

This method was unheard of.

The source energy gathered here at this moment, though not as great as that within its cave, is still a rare gathering place of source energy in the mountains.

The Juyue Mountain Range stretches across the land like a giant dragon, seemingly majestic and vast, but for a fifth-order being like it, it is insufficient to sustain its cultivation.

The source power of heaven and earth is too weak.

In fact, eight thousand years ago, the situation was not like this in the north and south of the Juyue Mountains. The source of heaven and earth energy was many times more abundant than it is now.

Eight thousand years ago, a rift valley opened up in the eastern part of the Juyue Mountains, like the gaping maw of a gluttonous beast, devouring the source energy of both the north and south of Juyue.

That rift valley was incredibly strange; no one knew how it was formed.

The surrounding area is filled with towering trees that block out the sun, seemingly a vibrant and thriving place, yet it is inhabited by terrifying 'spirits'.

Even it would find it difficult to withstand.

Decades ago, it attempted to enter the rift valley in search of precious medicine, but was injured by the monsters inside. It was then ambushed by another fifth-tier fat relic and almost met its demise.

Because of the loss of the source of heaven and earth energy and the lack of fifth-order resources, it can only covet bodies of the same order.

Because of that rift valley, very few beings in the Giant Mountain Range have been able to break through to the fifth rank in the past eight thousand years.

That fat relic is alright; besides directly refining the source power of heaven and earth, after it releases the plague, it can also absorb the 'plague' energy released by living beings infected with the plague to cultivate itself.

The snow demon is mysterious, and it doesn't know much about it either.

It alone, a descendant of Lu Wu, who controls the Lu Wu Divine Fire, finds even a single fifth-tier resource incredibly difficult to obtain.

As for leaving the Giant Mountain Range and fleeing to another place, that's not realistic. The vast wilderness is home to too many strange species. A fifth-tier being crossing the wilderness would easily become someone who delivers food a thousand miles away.

Staying in the Giant Mountain Range, there is still a Yuanmai land available. Although the source energy is not quite enough, it is still much stronger than outside.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Chi Huo Lu Wu wouldn't have believed that there was a great array that might be drawing starlight and transforming the source power of heaven and earth.

For several days, Crimson Flame Lu Wu lingered on the outskirts of the Blazing Flame Clan's territory. It was powerful and did not touch the great formation, so it did not attract the attention of the Blazing Flame Clan.

After several days of close observation, it became increasingly certain that the great formation was drawing upon the power of the stars to transform into the power of the five elements.

Even though the Five Elements Source Power in the formation seems very thin now, what it values ​​is this method of changing the concentration of Source Power.

"Humans are physically weak, yet they possess such extraordinary abilities."

Chi Huo Lu Wu traveled all over the five regions of the Great Mountain, and met the Huan Tou Clan and the Mu Jiang Clan. Although these clans had their own traditions and unique abilities, the array that could guide starlight was probably the first time he had ever seen it.

under night.

In the northeast direction of the great formation, Crimson Fire Lu Wu transformed into a size of about ten feet, his eyes flickering like flames.

Suddenly, flames surged from its body, and a scorching heat swept in all directions.

Its powerful body revealed its outline, its crimson flames like glass, its brilliance like the blazing sun.

The Thunder Feather Black Sparrow, which was flying towards this side from more than ten miles away, was swept away by the surging energy. After crashing to the ground, its feathers popped up and its whole body trembled like a leaf.

It didn't want to tremble, but it couldn't help it.

"Your Majesty!"

It looked up in the direction of the Crimson Fire Lu Wu, and the enormous body of Lu Wu transformed into a great sun.

This is the peak state of Crimson Fire Lu Wu. It has been by Lu Wu's side for so long, and has only seen Lu Wu manifest a few times.

The crimson flames emanating from Chi Huo Lu Wu illuminated all directions, causing the entire formation to tremble violently. Large swaths of crimson-gold radiance collided with the green light of the clan-protecting formation.

Shen Can stepped out of the great formation, his terrifying blood energy sweeping out like a vast ocean.

Being sneaked out of the tribe by a fifth-tier wild beast was quite thrilling.

As Shen Can raised his hands, his hands trembled repeatedly, his left hand clenching into a fist and his right hand opening into a palm.

The five elements intertwine between his hands, as if mountains and rivers are contained within his fists and palms.

The punch collided directly with the Crimson Sun, and cracks instantly appeared on the Crimson Sun.

The Mountain and River Palm followed the crack in the Crimson Sun and shattered it, transforming into a palm print depicting a vast landscape of mountains and rivers, which slammed into Lu Wu.

Bang!
A golden light shone from the unicorn's horn, colliding with the palm print. Then, its massive body trembled violently, and it was blasted away.

Boom!

This strike was earth-shattering, unleashing a blinding burst of divine light.

As Chi Huo Lu Wu staggered backward, his body smashed through the hills hundreds of feet high behind him, sending flame-laden earth and rocks flying through the air.

The burst of energy landed on the great formation, causing the entire clan-protecting formation to manifest countless magical runes that flickered and began to operate rapidly.

The Thunder Feather Sparrow, which had fallen earlier, was fleeing rapidly into the distance with its ruffled and blood-dripping wings, but it was still hit by the burst of energy that followed and fell down again.

Lu Wu's eyes widened, and his whole body exuded an unparalleled and vast aura. As a descendant of Lu Wu, his bloodline was among the best in the world.

In its eyes, the human figure opposite it was robust, surrounded by beast patterns, and its blood and energy shone like a vast ocean.

Is it a descendant of Lu Wu, or is the human in front of us a descendant of a wild beast king?
For a moment, Chi Huo Lu Wu was somewhat dazed.

It even sensed a trace of Lu Wu's aura from Shen Can.

He didn't bleed often; the most recent time was decades ago when he was ambushed by the Fei Yi after emerging from the underground cave.

That operation was somewhat hasty, and it's understandable that not all the precious blood was collected.

Cultivation resources are rare, and it takes a lot of time to replenish even a single drop of precious blood. If it is taken by another fifth-tier cultivator, it is equivalent to using one's own precious blood to help them cultivate.

Chi Huo Lu Wu rose from the rubble pit, and the shattered crimson flames around him gathered back onto his body.

The scorching flames spread out into a vast area.

Seeing that Lu Wu didn't seem to be planning to fight to the death, Shen Can was somewhat surprised.

He had already recognized him; this was Lu Wu, one of the three fifth-tier beings from the Giant Mountain Range.

Back then, Chi Hu's mother collected a drop of Lu Wu's precious blood, which he used to comprehend Lu Wu's divine form.

Now, the main character has arrived.

The large, lantern-like eyes of the Crimson Fire Lu Wu reflected Shen Can's figure, as well as the massive witch array behind him that was flashing with green light.

"Is the grand formation behind you drawing upon the power of the stars to transform into the five elements' source power?"

Lu Wu spoke, his voice booming like thunder.

Upon hearing this, Shen Can understood why Chi Huo Lu Wu had appeared.

It seems that even within the Juyue Mountain Range, cultivation resources are lacking.

He had previously thought that Yongyi's source energy was too scarce, making it difficult to advance to the fifth rank. Now it seems that the old beast king in the mountains is the same.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that after hearing about Lu Wu's fall, he led his people into the mountains and searched the place where Lu Wu had fallen, but they could not find any of Lu Wu's precious blood.

Only the mother of the dragon tiger found a tiny bit of it.

When the golden crow Kuafu passed through, the precious blood it shed when it was injured was licked up by them along with the grass and pebbles.

Given the scarcity of resources, one's own precious blood cannot be discarded casually.

"good."

Shen Can spoke.

It's great that a fifth-tier Lu Wu is short of resources. No wonder his lantern-sized eyes are so hazy; he's hungry.

Given the sheer size of the Giant Mountain Range, there are quite a few fourth-tier medicinal herbs and wild beasts.

But for Lu Wu, these things could only fill his stomach; they couldn't significantly improve his cultivation.

Upon hearing this, Chi Huo Lu Wu's eyes lit up.

If this formation were used to build a similar structure for its cave dwelling, wouldn't that mean the source energy within its cave dwelling could continue to increase?

When it saw the blazing array, it didn't even think about fighting.

Especially after exchanging blows with Shen Can, this human was like a giant beast from the mountains and seas, his blood and energy surging like the blazing sun.

If a real fight were to break out, the human race would be protected by a powerful formation, and it might be vulnerable to another sneak attack by the Fei Yi.

As a fifth-tier being, the cost of a fight is too high.

As for what Xiao Xuanque said about triggering a beast tide, it might work if there wasn't a fifth-order grand formation, but if there is a grand formation, especially a fifth-order grand formation, then forget about it.

It wasn't that it cared about the lives of the wild beasts in the mountains, but rather that stirring up a beast tide wouldn't have much effect.

Thinking of the little sparrow, Chi Huo Lu Wu realized what was happening and looked into the distance. He saw the Thunder Feather Black Sparrow with its head stuck in the mud, its rear end facing the sky, its feathers bristling, and its two claws twitching and trembling together.

A series of mournful cries echoed from the earth.

Seeing this, Chi Huo Lu Wu glanced at Shen Can, then quickly flew through the air to Xuan Que and used his beak to lift it out of the soil.

Then a fourth-tier precious herb flew out, and the Thunder Feather Black Sparrow opened its mouth and swallowed the herb in one gulp.

Shen Can also saw the unfortunate Thunder Feather Black Sparrow. This black sparrow had reached the late stage of the fourth rank, which was not weak.

Unfortunately, they encountered a fifth-tier battle. If they hadn't been far away, they would have been reduced to a bloody mist long ago.

Shen Can was somewhat surprised that Chi Huo Lu Wu would actually care about a fourth-tier wild beast.

It is still a wild beast with feelings.

very nice.

Immediately, Shen Can transmitted his voice to the clan.

Then, Shen Can raised his hand and pinched the previously shattered mountain rocks together, turning them into a high platform.

Furthermore, it swept away the oppressive aura that permeated the surrounding area.

"Guests from afar, please."

Chi Huo Lu Wu, who was watching over Xuan Que from a distance, looked up at Shen Can.

It seems that the Juyue Mountains are its territory.

It looks like it's changed hands.

The thought flashed through Chi Huo Lu Wu's mind in an instant, and without giving it much thought, it glanced at the size of the platform, shrunk its body, and landed on the platform with Xuan Que.

Not long after, a flying boat flew out from the Blazing Flame Clan's great formation.

The flying boat carried Fire Emblem, Flame Spirit, Osmanthus Rabbit, Spirit Clan members, and a group of wizards.

As soon as the great formation was activated, the innate spirit race immediately sensed Lu Wu's aura and instantly shrank behind Gui Tu.

Although Lu Wu concealed his aura and shrunk his size, the aura of a fifth-tier beast king still emanated invisibly.

As they approached the high platform, the clansmen on the flying boat also felt the pressure imperceptibly. Even though Shen Can dispersed much of it, sometimes the pressure comes from the mental level and cannot be dispelled by means of any means.

Fortunately, the clansmen had experienced the siege of the Holy Envoy Clan. Although the Holy Envoy Clan was nothing to Shen Can, it was a tremendous training opportunity for the clansmen.

After the clansmen quickly disembarked from the flying boat, they set up a large cauldron, prepared meat dishes, and placed wine and drinks in front of Shen Can and Lu Wu.

Other tribesmen quickly erected bronze lamps on the high platform, and pieces of warm, red firestone emitted light like orbs of light, illuminating the surroundings.

Shen Can tossed a jar of old wine to Lu Wu.

"No fight, no friendship. My human race loves making friends. This is a local specialty, please enjoy!"

These wines are all ancient blood wines, soaked in precious herbs. They cannot be brewed by Zhiyan. They were obtained by plundering the Qingyang and Bifang tribes of Yongyi.

These are among the best batches, reaching the fourth tier of quality.

"This little animal was injured partly because of me."

Then, Shen Can pointed to the injured Lei Yu Xuan Que and said, "Yan Ling, help this young friend heal his injuries."

Decades later, Yan Lingqing surpassed his teacher and also advanced to the fourth-order Great Witch Realm.

"Yes, Master."

……

Click.

Red Fire Lu Wu swallowed the wine jar whole, along with the wine and the shattered pottery jar.

Its gaze fell on Yan Ling, who was busy healing the wounded Thunder Feather Black Sparrow.

Shen Can didn't care and didn't correct Lu Wu's drinking method. He threw five jars of wine to Lu Wu in a row.

He had an idea as soon as he realized that Lu Wu had no intention of fighting to the death.

The tribe had already received Shen Can's message. The temple's intention was clear: to show the indigenous people in the remote mountains what witchcraft was.

Show off, show off to the fullest.

Yan Ling took out a precious pill with tiny specks on its surface and a faint halo of moonlight, and put it into Lei Yu Xuan Que's mouth.

Lei Yu Xuan Que originally wanted to struggle, but after sensing the gaze cast down by Chi Huo Lu Wu, it immediately became obedient.

The tribe's shaman began examining Xuan Que.

Gui Tu led dozens of medicine-pounding rabbits to surround Lei Yu Xuan Que, and the positions where they stood were marked with formations by wizards.

Once the formation was complete, beams of moonlight were imprinted down from the sky, each beam corresponding to a medicine-pounding rabbit below, which danced with the moonlight.

Guided by the medicine-pounding rabbit, streams of moonlight converged towards the Thunder Feather Black Sparrow.

Above the Xuanque's head, a blurry, hazy phantom of a full moon appeared.

The gurgling moonlight, like flowing water, covered the black sparrow's battered body. The wounds where feathers had fallen had already been treated with a cool, refreshing medicated ointment by the shaman.

Under the moonlight, the ointment melted quickly and seeped into the wound.

The black sparrow let out a soft cry of comfort.

Immediately, I realized what it meant—how could it do that!
The precious pill he had taken earlier, under the moonlight, quickly transformed into streams that flowed throughout his body.

The rabbits hopping around seemed to possess a mysterious power that could draw the medicine to the wound.

I never realized how amazing bunnies were before.

I will never eat rabbit again.

At this moment, Lei Yu Xuan Que was thinking the same thing.

……

The changes within Lei Yu Xuan Que's body were all detected by Chi Huo Lu Wu's divine sense.

Rays of moonlight descended from the sky, accompanied by streaks of starlight swirling around them, creating a mysterious and wondrous sight.

This is not a natural phenomenon, but rather a result of human intervention.

It could clearly sense that the injuries inside the black sparrow were rapidly healing.

Normally, such injuries would take more than ten years to heal, but now the speed at which the injuries in Xuan Que's body are healing is dozens of times faster than normal.

Although it was partly due to the precious medicine it gave him, Chi Huo Lu Wu could see clearly that the precious medicine it gave him was far inferior to the pill that the human had stuffed into the mouth of the Xuan Que.

Fortunately, I didn't intend to take action when I arrived.

Without any protective array, if he were injured, he would have no choice but to return to his lair to lick his wounds and also have to guard against sneak attacks from the Fei Yi.

In contrast, Shen Can was injured, but he was protected by a powerful formation and had his clansmen assist him in healing.

Perhaps this method would be less effective on a fifth-tier being, but even if it only doubles the healing speed, it would still be enough to turn the tide for a fifth-tier being.

Fighting against such a well-established human race is a losing battle; if it drags on, you'll only suffer losses.

It can fight, has formations, and can heal. Compared to it, Chi Huo Lu Wu feels like he's just a raw meat eater.

Borrowing the power of the stars to transform the five elements' source power.

Use the power of the moonlight to aid in healing.

Is this how humans operate?
It had seen many humans in the north and south of the Giant Mountain Range, but this was the first time it had encountered humans and felt such great danger.

……

Seeing Chi Huo Lu Wu stuff several jars of wine into his mouth, Shen Can knew that Chi Huo Lu Wu was contemplating himself.

This is the downside of having a brain. Look at the Holy Envoy Clan; they were reckless from the beginning and didn't waste their own time at all.

"Come, try our clan's Hundred Herbs Soup. Although its medicinal power is not strong enough for creatures of our level, it's still a treat."

Chi Huo Lu Wu glanced at the cauldron and suddenly said, "We can put some animal meat in it."

As it spoke, it opened its mouth, and a jade-like storage artifact flew out, from which a piece of dried-up beast meat flew out, and a chilling aura emanated from it.

"This is the meat of a fifth-tier monster; ordinary flames cannot cook it through."

Shen Can glanced at the piece of beast meat, which was about a foot in size. Its surface was dark and covered with claw marks.

Seemingly noticing Shen Can's gaze, Chi Huo Lu Wu slightly turned his eyes away, avoiding Shen Can's gaze.

The reason there are so many claw marks on the meat is because it was taken out frequently, but in the end, it couldn't bear to eat it.

It is meant to be kept for when one is injured, to replenish one's blood and energy.

As it was handled back and forth, it became covered in claw marks.

Although this piece of meat comes from a spirit and contains a strong yin and cold energy, which is somewhat incompatible with its extremely yang nature, it can still be eaten after the yin and cold energy is burned off.

There was no other way this time; I felt like I couldn't hold my head up high unless I produced something impressive.

At the same time, Akahira Rikugo also felt that this was not a good idea.

It had a sudden inspiration and quickly said, "This piece of meat is too cold. The claw marks on it were made when I used the Yang Fire to dispel the cold."
