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

Chapter 337 Ten Years!

Below the Alliance Hall of Heroes, the new Alliance Hall was put into use for the first time, and tribal chiefs, elders, and rangers all arrived early.

There were quite a few people who came this time; the tribal chiefs and elders totaled more than three thousand.

The reason for having elders is that some chieftains are still stationed in the camps of Yongyi and Dai, and are unable to attend to other matters, so they can only send the elders from their own tribes.

Fortunately, the main hall is spacious enough to accommodate thousands of people, and there are also sorcery instruments with amplification functions around it.

The hall was filled with rows of tables, with the leaders, elders, and wandering knights of the Divine Realm seated at the front, and the chieftains of the superior tribes who had come from behind.

The vast majority of these people came just to take a look and see what was going on.

Cang Lin's cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Heavenly Vein Realm, but he was not particularly outstanding among the chieftains of many superior tribes.

He comes from the Azure Bird tribe.

Speaking of the Azure Bird Tribe, its history dates back to before the Blazing Flame rose from the mountains and forests.

My grandfather said that back then he was on friendly terms with the old clan chief of the Zhiyan clan.

By the way, his grandfather's name was Canghe.

The Cangniao tribe submitted to Zhiyan early on, and being obedient, they followed orders and did whatever they were told before Zhiyan was promoted to a high-ranking official.

The tiny bit of knowledge revealed by the Blazing Flame Tribe has enabled the Azure Bird Tribe to make rapid progress in recent years, making it one of the top tribes among the superior tribes. The tribe has three Heavenly Vein Ninth Level warriors and more than a hundred Heavenly Vein warriors.

It can be said that the current goal of the Cangniao tribe is to achieve the success of the Bo tribe.

This time, the alliance issued a decree to all directions, announcing the decree to open up new lands. Cang Lin vaguely sensed that the opportunity for the Cang Niao tribe had arrived.

If we can seize this opportunity, we might save hundreds or even thousands of years, the efforts of two or three generations, and establish a legacy for the Bo clan.

At this moment, among the many chieftains of superior tribes, Cang Lin's gaze swept to his side and he saw a middle-aged, robust man.

The middle-aged man also glanced at Cang Lin, "Nephew, how is Elder Cang He?"

"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Lin. Grandpa is doing well, but he still misses you very much."

Lin Zhong chuckled. If that old man Cang He hadn't been nagging him, he wouldn't have renamed his grandson Cang Lin.

That old bastard deserves to die.

"Such a big thing happened in the upper part, why didn't Canghe come if he was alright?"

Lin Zhong looked puzzled; this was unlike Cang Lin's style.

Speaking of the 'grudge' between his Yanglin tribe and the Cangniao tribe, it wasn't really a big deal; it was just that old Canghe was making trouble for himself.

Canghe failed to seize the opportunity herself and instead blamed him.

He's held a grudge for over a hundred years. If this continues, the old man will have his name engraved on his tombstone when he dies.

“Grandpa has stepped down from his position as clan leader, so it’s natural for me, the younger generation, to take care of things.”

Cang Lin naturally wouldn't mention that Cang He not only came, but also went to drink with Elder Zhi Yan.

Looking across all the tribes in Yongyi, not to mention the superior tribes, there aren't many people in the Bo tribe who can get to drink with the old chieftain Zhiyan. Coincidentally, his old man is one of them.

Lin Zhong chuckled and said nothing more.

Even the old crane couldn't beat him back then, and now even a junior can't compete.

Back then, on the banks of the Zhushui River, in front of many small tribes, he was the first to stand up and honor Zhiyan as the superior, making Yanglin, a small tribe without even a Heavenly Vein, a superior tribe.

Cang Lin remained silent, as Cang He had already given him instructions when he came this time.

As soon as the upper level opens its mouth, he must be the first to speak, and he absolutely cannot let Yang Lin steal the spotlight again.

While the superior tribe may not be able to compete with the Yanglin tribe in terms of overall strength, it must not fall behind the Yanglin tribe in the struggle for the Bo tribe.

However, despite the rivalry between the Cangniao and Yanglin tribes, the two of them subconsciously linked their own tribes with Zhiyan in their words and thoughts, acknowledging that Zhiyan was the superior of their two tribes.

Cang Lin clenched his fists. This time, he was determined to defeat the Yanglin tribe. This was his grandfather's biggest worry.

Every time Grandpa woke up in a fright, he would curse, "Yang Lin deserves to die!"
Back then, they were just a hair's breadth away from being able to compete with the Cangniao tribe. Otherwise, how could the Yanglin tribe be compared with the Cangniao tribe? The Cangniao tribe was the number one vassal tribe under the Zhiyanbo tribe.

It's a pity, it was just a little bit short.

During the same period of development, the Cangniao tribe was indeed incredibly powerful. Among the superior tribes of Yongyi, there were not many with more than a hundred Heavenly Vein warriors, not to mention that more than thirty of them were in the late stage of the Heavenly Vein realm.

The Yanglin tribe is stronger than the Cangniao tribe, with five Heavenly Vein Ninth Level warriors, and twice as many Heavenly Vein warriors as the Cangniao tribe.

The most deserving vassal tribe under the command of the Blazing Flame Earl.

Along with Yanglin and Cangniao, there were several other tribes, including Yashan, but they have long since fallen behind the development of the two tribes.

At this moment, whispers gathered in the hall, sounding like thousands of ducks quacking incoherently.

"The Alliance Leader has arrived!"

A guard's shout rang out from outside the main hall, and the sound inside immediately ceased.

Volcano stepped into the main hall, glanced around, and then walked towards the main seat.

His seat was on a white jade platform, about ten feet off the ground, which gave him a perfect view of everyone in the hall.

"Greetings, Alliance Leader."

After settling down at the volcano, the clan leaders inside the hall rose.

"Everyone, take a seat."

Volcano waved for everyone to sit down, and after a brief exchange of pleasantries, he said, "I've gathered you all here for the matter of land reclamation."

Since the Yongshan tribe allied with other tribes to launch southern and northern expeditions eight thousand years ago, our human race has never been able to establish new lands for habitation.

Today, the Human Alliance resumes its expansionist endeavors.

"This time, the Alliance Temple of Heroes will bestow nine Raid Tokens."

As the volcano opened its mouth, many clan leaders inside the hall muttered to themselves, wondering why it was bestowed from the Temple of Heroes.

However, some clan leaders didn't think much of it. The order to go to the Holy Envoy Clan's territory to learn about the Black Bird came from the temple of the Blazing Flame Ancestral Temple.

It's normal for the most powerful shaman in Yongyi and Dai to become a temple deity in the Alliance Heroes Temple.

The volcano did not explain why the decree was bestowed from the Temple of Heroes; the various tribes would naturally understand once the reclamation order was brought back.

“Each pioneering token has an array, which, once activated, can create a protective barrier within a five-mile radius.”

"The formation of the Bobu Reclamation Order has reached the fourth-order superior grade."

As the volcano opened its mouth, a commotion erupted inside the hall.

Many clan leaders who only intended to come and take a look were also stunned. Why didn't they mention earlier that the reclamation order also had protective measures?

For a time, many people thought that they could give it a shot.

Within a radius of five miles, the ancestral temple, clan storehouse, and core clan members can all be protected.

The formation is too large and consumes a lot of energy; everyone present understands this.

"The formation within the superior-grade reclamation token is of the middle grade of the fourth rank."

The sound of the volcano continued, and then the grade of the formation within the superior-grade reclamation order was mentioned again.

As he spoke, a massive map of the northwest region of Dai was unfurled inside the main hall.

The map divides a large area in the northwest and west of Dai into nine sections. This area is the former territory of the Dai people that was destroyed by the Tu Lou.

From north to south, the outermost area consists of five regions, which are the territories of the Bo tribe.

Behind the five Bo tribe territories are four superior tribe territories.

The territory of a Bo tribe can be cultivated into wilderness covering an area of ​​30,000 li, while a superior territory can be cultivated into wilderness covering an area of ​​10,000 li.

Volcano pointed to the map and looked at the several regional warriors sitting together who wanted to establish a tribe.

"Lord Jiang, you choose first."

After examining the landscape map, Jiang Shu quickly selected the location for rebuilding the Bo tribe in the outermost protruding area of ​​the map.

Subsequently, the three leaders of the inheritance sites, Yuezai, Fugu, and Zhenyue, all stood up and selected their preferred locations on the map.

After the four representatives were chosen, Huoshan looked at the other clan leaders in the hall.

“There is another tribe in the north of Dai. Who is willing to move their entire clan to Dai to reclaim and expand the land for the human race?”

As the volcano opened its mouth, the many clan leaders in the hall did not respond immediately, but instead showed signs of contemplation, with some even looking at others.

Volcano didn't seem to care and continued, "In the eastern part of the Bobu territory, there are four areas where high-grade tribal territories can be established. Who is willing to migrate to the Dai territory?"

"Yang Lin..."

"Azure Crane..." "Seeking Jade..."

As the volcano finished speaking, three figures stood up in the hall.

Cang Lin glanced at Lin Zhong; his palms were sweating.

Lin Zhong was stunned for a moment, wondering if he was getting old.

Then, both of them looked at another person.

Chieftain of the Xunyu tribe.

Compared to the Cangniao and Yanglin tribes, which are both vassal tribes of the Zhiyanbo tribe, the Xunyu tribe comes from the Yu region and was originally a superior tribe under the Bifangbo tribe.

"Reporting to the Alliance Leader, the Changyuanbo tribe is willing to migrate to Dai land to cultivate the land for the Alliance."

As everyone looked at the three chieftains of the superior tribes, Lord Changyuan stood up and spoke.

The chieftain of the Changyuan tribe had a head of white hair, and his tribe was originally within the territory of the Aoshan tribe.

It is conceivable that it was already extremely difficult for him to advance to the Divine Treasure level, and it would be virtually impossible for him to cultivate a second Divine Treasure and make his own tribe the successor of the Bo tribe.

As Lord Changyuan stood up and spoke, eight of the nine Reclamation Tokens were gone, leaving only one High-Grade Reclamation Token.

Each of them selected their respective tribe's migration location on a map of mountains and rivers.

Not long after, the Qiushe tribe, a superior tribe from Jidi, also spoke up and snatched away the only remaining superior-grade reclamation token.

The remaining tribal chiefs in the main hall were somewhat disappointed. It wasn't that they were unwilling to move, but since it involved the relocation of their entire tribes, they wanted to think it over more.

Some people's expressions didn't change much. Reclaiming land wasn't easy. Let's see how this first batch of tribes fares. If they do well, then it's not too late to try and get a second batch of reclamation qualifications.

Some of the chieftains, as elders of the alliance, also knew that there was a Cloud Valley in the northeast of Giant Mountain, where the human race had suffered a great disaster, and there were many places where they could migrate and develop their tribes.

And so on.

……

"The nine pioneering orders have been selected. The nine clan leaders may accompany me to the Temple of Heroes to request the pioneering orders."

Volcano put away the map, ignoring everyone's thoughts, and got up to walk out of the main hall.

Opportunity is fleeting; if you miss it, so be it. It won't wait for anyone present to make up their mind.

"If any of you clan leaders have nothing else to do, you are welcome to come and take a look."

Many clan leaders filed out of the main hall and headed toward the Temple of Heroes.

The Temple of Heroes, perched high above, requires climbing a white marble staircase to reach from the Alliance Hall.

The nine clan leaders who had obtained the pioneering orders followed behind the volcano and arrived at the square outside the main hall of the Temple of Heroes.

Clang!

A rosy glow illuminated the main hall of the Temple of the Heroes, and a decree burst forth from the temple gates, slowly unfurling in the air.

"Now, with the spirits of all the heroes of the alliance as witnesses, I hereby issue an order to the five departments of Jiang Yang, Yue Zai, Zhen Yue, Fu Gu, and Chang Yuan to open up new lands."

With this decree, all mountains, rivers, and lakes within a radius of 30,000 li shall fall under the tribal territory and be protected by the Human Alliance.

"With the spirits of all the heroes of the alliance as witnesses, I hereby command Yanglin and Cangniao..."

"..."

……

The golden edict shone brightly, stretching across the exterior of the Temple of the Heroes and enveloping the entire main hall in golden light.

This was generated by Shen Can using his powerful divine sense. All the tribal chiefs who were attracted to it felt as if they heard a voice ringing in their ears, penetrating their minds.

This scene greatly reinforced the impression of Valhalla in the minds of the tribal chiefs.

Subsequently, the nine clan leaders entered the main hall of the Temple of Heroes in turn and presented the decree for pioneering the land.

After receiving the decree to reclaim the wasteland, the people of Dai returned to Dai, while the several tribes of Yongyi began to pack their bags.

The alliance provided significant support to the first tribes to pioneer the land, and did not restrict any tribe from gathering scattered people.

If you have the ability, recruit as many as you can.

The alliance will send warships and airships to help relocate these gathered scattered people.

In addition, with the need to build cities in Dai, for a period of time, more than half of the alliance's focus shifted to Dai.

Fortunately, during the previous campaign against the Earthworms, a large amount of spoils were collected, enough for the alliance to develop steadily for a period of time.

In addition, given that none of the people previously sent to the Piercing Chest Clan, the Mujiang Clan, and the Cloud River Valley had returned, the Alliance dispatched a second batch of personnel to investigate the various locations once again.

With few large-scale conquests for the time being, each tribe used the merits they earned in the Dai region to exchange for cultivation methods for the first three levels of martial arts.

The younger generation has begun to turn to perfecting and unifying martial arts techniques.

Even some middle-aged martial artists couldn't resist abandoning their original cultivation methods and starting to practice the unified cultivation method.

……

In the southern border of Yongyi, deep in the waters.

The enormous statue of the Huan Tou tribe stood in the water, with the surging waters submerging half of its body.

This is no longer the original ancestral home of the Huan Tou tribe, Xuan Tan Yuan Island.

As early as when the Huan Tou tribe's high priest repeatedly performed sacrifices and received prophecies of bloodshed, the Huan Tou tribe began to migrate as a whole to deeper waters.

Although they migrated to deeper waters, the Huan Tou tribe was not content with their migration and thus took precautions during the move.

"Chieftain, it seems the human race has not been fooled."

In front of the statue, on an island made of lotus leaves, stands a blue-green hall.

Inside the hall, figures with human faces and bird beaks gathered together.

They had already planned a good show during their migration. As long as the human race dared to launch a large-scale attack on Xuan Yuan Tan, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses from their prepared contingency plan.

Unfortunately, after waiting for several years, although a group of humans managed to reach the Xuan Yuan Pool, these few individuals were not worth triggering the backup plans they had left behind.

The bird beak on the face of the Huan Tou clan chief has been turned into jade, and even his wings have a jade-like glow.

"Chieftain, if the humans don't come, we can't just stay here and wait. The probability of our people getting injured is 20% to 30% higher than before."

Although the Huan Tou tribe loves water, they cannot live in deep water areas; they prefer wetlands where water and land intermingle.

The clan chief of Huan Tou glanced at the heads of each branch, then got up and walked outside.

"Come with me to see the High Priest and see if the bloodshed of my Huan Tou tribe has subsided."

The humans never came again, so much so that even the Huan Tou tribe is now somewhat confused about where the bloodshed that has befallen their people came from.

"Wait."

Unfortunately, the Huan Tou tribe warriors were turned away, as the Huan Tou High Priest told them to continue waiting.

……

Time flies in the Great Wilderness, especially for Shen Can, who is at the fifth level.

After annihilating the Fei Yi and capturing all the beast kings of the Giant Mountain Range, he stayed in the clan to begin his cultivation, occasionally handling the rituals of the Alliance's Temple of Heroes in his spare time.

When you calm down and focus on your practice, time slips away like sand through your fingers.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Catacombs.

Amidst the deafening roar of a fierce battle, a fifth-tier monster was instantly blasted to pieces by Crimson Fire Lu Wu. Before the fragments could even fall, they were gathered up by a shimmering pool of water.

By the time the other fifth-tier monsters rushed over, Crimson Fire Lu Wu had already disappeared.

The place where it disappeared seemed to ripple with water. The monsters that rushed over searched repeatedly, but could not find a trace of it. They cried out in anger for a long time before finally returning to the cave.

At the edge of the jungle outside the cave, where Red Fire Lu Wu disappeared, starlight slowly fell as night fell.

Then, a ripple of energy from the array appeared, and like a barrier, a crack appeared in the night sky.

Through the gaps, one could see a golden and iron city standing inside the array, with various figures moving about inside.

In the center of the city, in a nurturing ground built from fragments of spirits, grows an old tree that is as gnarled and twisted as a dragon.

The stump at the base of the old tree is very large, with layers upon layers like a small mountain, making it clear at a glance that this tree has gone through countless life-and-death trials.

Each time it withers, new buds sprout from the roots, and a fist-sized fruit hangs on the treetop, shimmering with dazzling light, like a small moon illuminating the entire city.
