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

Chapter 389 I Want to Be a Tiger Lord!

Shen Can is really growing taller.

As the Dharma Image merged into the battle body, the battle body's size also began to grow rapidly, increasing in size accordingly.

The energy emanating from the Dharma form and the blood energy dissipating from the battle body gave rise to countless witchcraft characters.

The two are also merging around them, forming layers upon layers of energy glow.

This meant that many Alliance humans watching from the outside could only see a part of Shen Can; some could only see Shen Can's feet, and some could only see Shen Can's head.

……

One thousand three hundred feet... one thousand four hundred feet... one thousand eight hundred feet...

During the fusion process, Shen Can's body grew larger and larger. Compared to the four-armed Tongbei Clan members who were only eight or nine hundred feet tall at the early stage of the sixth rank, he had now more than doubled in size.

"Legend has it that the powerful races of the Great Wilderness have the ability to chase mountains and seize peaks. It seems that it is true. We are just ignorant and ignorant because we live in the wilderness."

"If a temple's ancestral temple advances to the sixth level and its physical body becomes as solid as a mountain, doesn't that mean we can achieve the same thing when we cultivate to the sixth level, possessing the ability to move mountains and seize peaks?"

Many martial artists stared intently, their breathing quickening.

The alien races said that humans were weak and only fit to be slaves and food offerings, but the temple told them the truth.

Humans, through cultivation, can also possess the power to stand tall and upright.

Cultivation must be done to the point of exhaustion.

……

Soon, Shen Can's body had broken through to a height of two thousand feet, and the rate of increase had not slowed down, climbing towards two thousand one hundred feet.

Such power stems from the combined effect of the battle body and the Dharma form.

Without cultivating the human battle body, the physical body and the Dharma body need a long time to adapt to each other before they can gradually merge together.

This would greatly reduce the height of the physical body.

Perhaps the battle bodies cultivated by other warriors in the Human Alliance are not as tall and majestic as Shen Can's.

However, his physical body is far stronger than that of other human races who have not cultivated battle bodies.

At this moment, Shen Can, who was advancing in his cultivation, was becoming increasingly vigorous. He could feel the Dharma Image merging into his back, like a mighty river flowing into the sea.

Then, great rivers branched out from within the body, which in turn branched into great streams, which branched into tributaries, and the tributaries into streams, spreading throughout the limbs and every corner of the body.

After the Dharma image merges into the body, it does not disappear, but coexists completely with the physical body.

Two thousand three hundred feet, two thousand four hundred feet, until this moment, Shen Can's physical height increase slowed down.

The fusion process was nearing its end, and Shen Can looked like a bloated fat man with several folds of flesh on his stomach.

Her face was also much rounder than usual.

His limbs were as thick as pillars.

Rumble!
The next moment, Shen Can's massive body trembled violently, his spine shaking like a great dragon, and his human origins emerged, instantly transforming him into Lu Wu, Kui Niu, a true dragon, Baxia...

These divine forms, ranging from hundreds to thousands of feet in size, exuded the aura of ancient beast kings and began to collide with Shen Can's physical body.

Boom boom boom!
As if a divine craftsman were forging a divine weapon, after the beast kings' divine forms were attacked, their bloated flesh and blood transformed into energy, making Shen Can's body even more majestic.

His bronze-colored skin revealed veins that twisted and turned like dragons, and his entire body was filled with immense power. His black hair danced lightly, each strand producing a resounding clang.

When the last wisp of Dharma energy merged into his body, Shen Can's massive battle body had reached 2,700 feet.

This is comparable to the height of some fifth or sixth-tier Kuafu when Kuafu passed through the area.

Of course, the Kuafu tribe also possesses supernatural powers, and during battles, they may continue to grow larger, making it impossible to measure their size uniformly.

As Shen Can's body swayed, a radiant glow burst forth around him, and the divine forms of various beast kings and creatures surrounded him, like stars around the moon, at his command.

After a long while, the many strange phenomena disappeared.

Among the mountains, Shen Can's enormous figure also disappeared, leaving behind his original form as a 'weak' body.

At first glance, he seemed no different from before, but with each blink of his eyes, a sense of authority emanated from him.

The figures who had been watching for a long time finally dispersed, each one still looking somewhat lost.

Shen Can did not go out immediately after his breakthrough.

This advancement to the sixth level of the Returning to Truth Realm can be considered a follow-up to the previous one, and a breakthrough that came naturally.

Furthermore, what appears to be a breakthrough is in fact a transformation originating from the very essence of humanity.

Shen Can's seclusion was a process of sorting out and transforming his own essence.

It's nothing that he broke the shackles of the wild beasts by himself; what's truly remarkable is that everyone could break those shackles.

Humans are born somewhat weak, but this is not unchangeable. Humans are determined to conquer nature and have the potential to devour all beasts and dominate the world.

……

Not long after Shen Can broke through to the sixth rank, he was in two other directions in the Juyue Mountains.

Two other figures were also preparing to break through.

One is the Crimson Fire Lu Wu, and the other is the leader of the Kui Niu.

Both of these beast kings are at the mid-stage of the fifth rank. The Kui Niu leader has been at the mid-stage of the fifth rank for hundreds of years, which is more solid than Lu Wu's.

The precious medicines and pills that Shen Can retrieved from the ancient city of Tu Shang were improved by the clan's shamans and used on the two beast kings first.

The True Yang Pill was prepared for Chi Huo Lu Wu, and after the wizard examined him, he was also given a Fire Blaze Pill.

The True Yang Pill is used to advance from the mid-stage of the fifth rank to the late stage, while the Fiery Pill is used to advance from the early stage of the fifth rank to the mid-stage.

To ensure that Chi Huo Lu Wu's foundation wouldn't appear weak after advancing to the late stage of the fifth rank, an extra pill was added to cultivate his essence.

The leader of the Kui Niu tribe, however, directly consumed a Bai Gui Dan.

In a valley, the surrounding area was long since barren of vegetation, with traces of scorching remaining.

Red Fire Lu Wu's entire body shone with a golden-red luster, and the flames flowing down from his body covered the surrounding area.

It hadn't yet consumed the two precious pills; it had sustained a minor injury during its previous battle with the Four-Armed Back Clan.

These days I'm recovering from my injuries.

As the king of beasts in the fire element and a descendant of Lu Wu, it is actually somewhat unworthy of its name.

The true descendants of Lu Wu would certainly not be like it, constantly getting beaten up.

To put it bluntly, it's because my Lu Wu bloodline isn't pure enough.

In the past, the Juyue Mountains were short of food and clothing, and there weren't many Tier 5 beings around. This 'pseudo' descendant of Lu Wu was naturally very powerful.

But now, with the increasing number of fifth-tier humans in the alliance, as well as Kui Niu, ferrets, and even other beast kings that will be promoted later, its thin Lu Wu bloodline seems insufficient.

This made Chi Huo Lu Wu feel a midlife crisis. If things continued like this, the time when he dominated the Juyue Mountains might be called the time when the monkey was king.

"Ouch!"

At this moment, Chi Huo Lu Wu took out two precious pills and swallowed them in one gulp.

The immense medicinal power instantly dissolved within Lu Wu's body, causing waves of blood energy to surge like a tsunami within him.

The fire elemental energy overflowed within his body, transforming into layers of golden flames that enveloped Lu Wu, turning him into a massive golden fireball.

The scorching heat began to burn the surrounding barren, rocky land, and some places had already been burned into a glassy state by the golden fire.

Just as Chi Huo Lu Wu was beginning his advancement, in another waterside area of ​​the Ju Yue Mountains, the Kui Niu leader's breakthrough was nearing its end.

The surging energy of water filled the entire valley, and the enormous phantom of a Kui Niu appeared above the water within the valley.

In the water, the unicorn emanated a black light, with streams of water flowing around it like black dragons.

With each opening and closing of its mouth, the Kui Niu leader sucked in all the water flowing from the sky.

The deep swamp within the valley was completely drained by the Kui Niu leader in the blink of an eye. At the same time, the enormous Kui Niu divine form standing behind the Kui Niu leader became even darker, like ink.

hold head high!
At that moment, the enormous Kui Niu god roared to the sky, and the starlight in the valley for thousands of miles around was instantly shattered.

The leader of the Kui Niu stood there quietly for a long time, until the Kui Niu divine form behind him dispersed into specks of light rain before disappearing from the spot in a flash.

About half a month after the Kui Niu leader was promoted.

In the valley where Chi Huo Lu Wu cultivated, the crimson fire sun he transformed into did not rise, but merely dissipated a portion of the starlight power.

In the sunlight, a blurry, tiger-like wild beast appeared and disappeared, letting out a howl.

Compared to the Kui Niu leader's profound knowledge, Chi Huo Lu Wu was a step behind. Although flames raged across the sky, he still failed to condense a clear ancestral Lu Wu divine form.

Chi Huo Lu Wu opened his mouth and swallowed the sun whole. His aura surged around him, causing rocks to fly through the valley.

Roar!
After his promotion, Chi Huo Lu Wu couldn't help but let out a long roar to the sky.

As a descendant of Lu Wu, its bloodline can only push it to the fifth level.

Based on its own inherent strength, without external forces, it can at most advance to the mid-stage of the fifth rank, and the chance of advancing to the late stage of the fifth rank is very small.

Its bloodline is insufficient, making its combat strength mediocre, merely bearing the name of Lu Wu without possessing the legendary strength of Lu Wu.

Concealing its aura, Lu Wu got up and left the valley. As it crossed the giant mountain, it suddenly paused, looking towards the west of the mountain.

Despite being enveloped by a sky full of starlight, it still felt an intense heat appearing to the west of the Giant Mountain Range.

This intensely yang flame aura is absolutely genuine.

Immediately, Chi Huo Lu Wu thought of something and strode through the starlight towards the west.

……

On the western side of the Juyue Mountain Range, an enormous mountain was cut in half, and the surrounding mountains were also leveled into a wide expanse of land centered on this giant mountain.

Golden rays of light streamed down from the sky, circling twice within the formation before transforming into bursts of blazing flames that danced slowly at the center of the array.

The surrounding area was filled with flashing shamanic runes, as large as stars. A large amount of Yin energy and stellar energy flowed continuously within the surrounding formation, confining the extremely Yang and powerful solar energy that had been drawn in within the formation.

Even so, the scorching heat released by the sun's power, which had transformed into leaping flames, seemed to distort even the void itself.

The solar energy that is drawn down will all converge in the center of the great formation.

In this way, the temperature in the central region will reach its highest, which is also where the sun's power is most intense.

The surrounding area is slightly less desirable.

At the very top of the sky, the sun shines brightly, right at the center of the heavens.

Looking up at the top of the sky, along the straight path from the valley plain to the sun, you can see streaks of golden light falling from the sun.

As the solar energy it had drawn down fell, the temperature rose sharply in the area spanning tens of thousands of miles around the valley.

Part of the mountaintop covered with ice chips melted rapidly in the scorching heat, and torrents of water flowed down from the mountaintop, forming small-scale flash floods in the mountains.

After arriving, Chi Huo Lu Wu stared intently at the sun's true fire falling from the sky, his large golden eyes fixed on it without moving.

At this moment, Shen Can was also outside this great formation that draws in the power of the sun.

The main reason was that receiving the power of the sun was too dangerous. After his breakthrough, he sensed his grand-disciple was busy, so he came over.

Yan Chong used fifth-tier minerals as the base to create this grand array that stretches for thousands of miles, drawing upon the power of the sun.

At this point, the temperature at the very edge of the array was already too high for ordinary creatures to approach.

Each golden flame is extremely strong and yang.

Of course, if it's just for upgrading and modifying the forging workshop, there's no need to use such a large array.

In the center of the formation, there is a sunflower seed.

At this moment, the seed is absorbing the golden power of the sun; the scorching heat of the sunflower is enough to burn everything, yet it makes the seed's vitality stronger and stronger.

This spiritual plant needs to continuously absorb the power of the sun.

Next, Yan Chong will build blast furnaces around the area, surrounding the central formation with these furnaces. This way, he can use the power of the sun for forging nearby, and also temporarily conceal the wonder of the sunflower.

Once the alliance becomes stronger in the future, this kind of cover-up will naturally no longer be necessary.

Upon seeing Chi Huo Lu Wu, Shen Can's figure flashed and he arrived in front of Lu Wu.

"Should we try to improve ourselves?"

The power of Crimson Flame Lu Wu, who had advanced to the late stage of the fifth rank, was completely revealed to Shen Can.

Given Chi Huo Lu Wu's resources, without external assistance, it would probably take him thousands of years to cultivate to the peak of the fifth rank through sheer hard work.

It's true that he's a descendant of Lu Wu, but the bloodline of Chi Huo Lu Wu is too weak. He only has the appearance of Lu Wu. He can fight those weaker than himself, but he's easy to be exposed when he encounters a beast king of the same level.

Lu Wu is a fire-elemental divine beast, whose fire is known for its masculine energy. Among all the fires in the world, the sun is the most powerful and masculine.

Now, this condition happens to be available.

Hearing Shen Can say that, Chi Huo Lu Wu didn't hesitate at all.

If you don't improve, you'll really be dragged down.

He wants to be Tiger too, but who wants to be Fat Tiger?

Seeing this, Shen Can called over his disciple, Yan Chong, and they modified the formation on the spot, moving the sunflowers aside.

Anyway, it won't be a matter of a day or two for this spiritual plant to sprout and grow, so let Crimson Fire Lu Wu cut in line first.

The next day, Akahira Rikugo squatted down in the spot where the sunflower used to be.

The great formation started operating again, and the power of the sun poured down from the sky. From a distance, golden light shone down, and clusters of golden flames rose up in the formation, appearing slightly illusory as they flickered, thus surrounding Crimson Fire Lu Wu.

Yan Zeng nervously controlled the operation of the formation.

This is to enhance the foundation of Crimson Fire Lu Wu, not to roast him.

If anything unexpected happens, he must immediately stop the formation.

Even if he can't stop, his master is there to watch over him.

"Ow!"

Upon contact with the first ball of golden solar fire, Crimson Fire Lu Wu screamed to the sky, his voice cracking.

As a fire-elemental wild beast, it already controlled extremely strong and yang flames. However, when the solar array, which spanned a thousand miles, gathered the flames formed from the power of the sun at Lu Wu as the center point, it still let out a miserable scream.

The golden fire was like a knife, instantly tearing open the skin of Crimson Fire Lu Wu, causing it to sizzle and smoke.

Seeing that Shen Can didn't speak, Yan Chong didn't adjust the witch formation.

In an instant, Lu Wu's screams echoed through the mountains, terrifying the birds and beasts living in the surrounding mountains.

What's wrong?

Are they killing a tiger?

Chi Huo Lu Wu screamed for a month and three days. His body was covered in sores that not a single piece of flesh remained intact. His once golden fur was now completely charred black, and there was exposed flesh and blood.

Under the scorching heat of the sun, a plume of black smoke rose directly from its body.

The screams stopped, but the low moans of pain did not.

Shen Can didn't want to really kill Chi Huo Lu Wu, so he instructed Yan Chong to adjust the formation according to the strength of the sun's power, so that Chi Huo Lu Wu could hold on.

Incidentally, every now and then I would feed Crimson Fire Lu Wu some Originium to replenish his energy.

Three months later.

The low, painful cries of Akahira Rikugo were also gone.

After the true fire of the sun set, it enveloped the body of Crimson Fire Lu Wu, forming a large golden cocoon of flames.
