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

Chapter 43 The Idea of ​​Relocating the Clan to Their Homeland (Please continue reading)

"Ah-Can, you're saying this is a knife from the Lingyu tribe?"

Huo Tang was startled.

a long time.

"It really is a Lingyu."

He thought of the giant wave-riding ship that the Shi Fu people had mentioned before, used to capture people and animals.

The remnants of the Lingyu tribe on this water beast indicate that it had narrowly escaped their capture.

This further confirms that the Lingyu tribe hunted aquatic beasts and captured members of other tribes.

"Ha... In the eyes of those above, we're probably all savages, where would we get any sense of kinship?"

Huotang suddenly chuckled self-deprecatingly. The legends about the upper Lingyu tribe passed down through the tribe for hundreds of years left him with a somewhat indescribable feeling.

Shen Can stroked the broken knife, carefully examining the mutated witch script on it.

Stealing someone's skills is definitely the fastest way.

It turns out that the essence of Wuwen remains unchanged despite its variations. Although the characters may appear to have changed, their meaning remains the same, making them even more suitable for the blade to which they are attached.

"Buzz!"

Then, he lightly touched the broken knife with his hand.

The black, gold-flecked broken blade suddenly gleamed with a dark light, and wisps of moisture gathered around the blade before slicing outwards.

Rumble!

The water jet pierced the air and slammed into the solid top of the cave, causing a rumbling sound as rocks rained down.

This caused him and Huotang to flee in panic.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?!"

The commotion startled the firefish inside the ear canal and the firefish guarding outside; one went outside and the other darted inside.

"The earth is shaking!"

Firefish covered its head and shouted, "Brother Acan, Elder Uncle, Grandpa Fire Salt, run!"

"Pfft! Pfft!"

Huo Tang wiped the dust from his mouth, pulled back the squeaking firefish, and looked at Shen Can. "Ah Can, is this witchcraft?"

Fortunately, Shen Can restrained himself the moment he noticed something was wrong, and not many stones fell, so the ancestral temple cave was unharmed.

Otherwise, if we bury our ancestors, other families will laugh at us to death.

Shen Can, covered in a layer of water and not a speck of dust, reappeared in the cave.

Instead of answering Huotang's question, he handed the knife to Huotang, saying, "Clan leader, try infusing this knife with your blood energy."

Huo Tang took the broken sword, and a wisp of blood energy surged from his palm onto the blade.

"Buzz!"

Driven by the blood energy, the runes on the blade lit up, as if wrapped with a wisp of blood-red light.

Huo Tang stared wide-eyed at the strange phenomenon on the knife until the bloody light dissipated before he came to his senses.

"We really are savages."

"Uncle Chieftain, where have we been wandering?" Firefish's eyes revealed their clarity.

"This child." Huotang suddenly smiled.

He handed the broken sword to Shen Can and said, "Is this a witch weapon forged by the upper part of the Lingyu clan for the Heavenly Vein warriors?"

"Most likely so."

Shen Can nodded and then said, "It's a bit puzzling that even the witch weapons forged by the Upper Realm can break. It seems that the Upper Realm isn't omnipotent after all."

"The tradition has been passed down for so many years. Generations of us have listened to other people's legends, so it's not surprising that there are witch soldiers."

Huotang also composed himself, "We will have our own witch soldiers in the future."

Once he came to his senses, he shifted his focus to the purpose of this harvest.

"Ah Can, do you think the beast blood you brought back this time will allow Volcano and Fire Qi to advance to the Heavenly Vein level?"

"Not for now. Since it's a different kind of blood, it should be able to be preserved for a longer time. My two uncles, Huoshan and Huoqi, haven't reached their limit in terms of Qi in the Mountain Opening Realm yet."

"Is it still increasing?"

Huo Tang was startled, then subconsciously turned around, a hint of sadness appearing in his eyes.

However, this hint of sadness was fleeting.

"Good, these two are really lucky. They've come across a good time, and I'll have to personally hunt beasts to support their cultivation."

"If you can still increase your strength, then keep increasing it. If you advance to the Heavenly Vein like me, that's all you'll ever be."

Then, Huotang changed the subject and said, "The anesthetic you prepared played a significant role in hunting aquatic beasts in the eastern marshes this time."

Some tribesmen suggested that it would be better to focus on hunting aquatic beasts, and some even suggested that the tribe be relocated there.

In the Great Wilderness, no tribe has any attachment to their homeland. If they can survive a natural disaster, migration is a common occurrence.

"Chieftain, how many jars of anesthetic were used this time?"

"All sixty jars we brought have been used."

Shen Can nodded. He then asked about Huo Tang's hunting of the water beast, which further confirmed that the medicine's effectiveness was still somewhat low.

"Moving to a place near water is no problem, but I'm afraid there will be another flood that day." This is what Huo Xian said.

A flood caused the Ōno Marsh to overflow for two thousand miles.

He also heard Huotang say that the upper part of the Lingyu came by boat to hunt, and he immediately became worried.

"Uncle, how could there be so many floods? Besides, the Lingyu tribe has already captured almost all the nearby tribes."

With a plague raging and various tribes dwindling, the Lingyu tribe could not recoup its costs even after sending a fleet of ships across thousands of miles to save the remaining tribes.

If they were to scrape away the topsoil like that, they'd be exhausted. It's like planting crops; you have to wait for the next harvest, which could take decades or even centuries.

Huotang explained that he also favored the migration of tribes.

"If it leads to better development, I agree with relocating the tribal homeland."

Shen Can expressed his agreement, having successfully hunted three-tier wild beasts twice in a row, both of which were aquatic wild beasts.

In addition, since the effects of Mafeisan have become apparent, although the efficacy is slightly reduced, the dosage can be increased.

This is the tribe's advantage; it would be foolish not to use it.

He comprehended the Lingyu Water Control Manual, which showed that having water gives one a greater advantage.

Furthermore, according to Huotang's description, the land near the water is not entirely swampy; there are still mountains and forests to the north, where wild beasts of the mountains and forests live.

As for how to cultivate land near water, one can look for aquatic wheat and millet, or even simply fill in the water to create farmland.

These are minor matters as long as they benefit the tribe's development.

"I think we should thoroughly investigate the area around the water and find a suitable place to settle down. Once everything is feasible, we can then prepare to migrate."

"Ah-chan is right. There's no rush to migrate. I'll continue to lead people to find out what's going on along the eastern marshland. If there are any dangerous places, it would be dangerous for us to migrate rashly."

Just as Huotang was about to leave, Shen Can stopped him.

"Chieftain, you should eat the meat of the third-tier wild beasts. There's still some fish meat left from that strange fish last time. As a third-tier martial artist, if you want to advance further, necessary external supplements are essential."

Before Huo Tang could refuse, they said, "We will have martial arts techniques. Right now, you and Uncle Huo Kui are the only two with the Heavenly Vein in the clan. We can afford to support them."

Besides, once we've used up the anesthetic, we can just catch more.

Seeing that Shen Can was still clutching his sleeve after he finished speaking, Huo Tang said, "Alright, I'll eat it, let go."

"Um, Chieftain, I'd like you to fight Uncle Volcano."

"Hmm, how about we leave the tribe and fight secretly?"

"Let's invite our two clan uncles, Huo Kui and Huo Qi, to come along."

The next day.

Several figures stealthily left the tribe and ran to a valley more than ten miles away.

"Chief, I will not hold back."

Volcano clenched his fist. Ah-Can was holding him back from advancing to the Heavenly Vein realm, but he had already figured out the trick.

If you want to become stronger as a Celestial Vein Warrior, you must now work hard to increase your Qi.

After so much training, Volcano feels he can now fight two versions of himself from the time of the Flood.

Huo Qi also had his own insights. When he wasn't soaking in beast blood, he felt that his qi strength hardly increased at all.

Although the attempt to soak in beast blood failed, he was able to feel an increase in his internal energy over the next six months.

"Ready, fight! Winners get meat, losers get barbecue."

Inside the valley, on a huge rock, Shen Can sat cross-legged.

A piece of animal hide was laid on his legs, ready for recording data, along with a small flag.

"beat!"

"Boom!"

A rumbling sound echoed through the valley, with rings of sound colliding and crashing against the rock walls, continuing intermittently for most of the hour.

Shen Can was the first to emerge from the valley, a rolled-up animal hide tucked under his arm and a small flag in his hand.

Four figures with bruised and swollen faces followed behind him.

Under the cover of night, the four of them bypassed the tribal city and crossed the mountain behind the tribal mountain to return to the tribe.

"Ouch, Brother Huotang, you promised you wouldn't hit my face." Huotang muttered, covering his left cheek.

"You're so foul-mouthed, and you even hit my eye."

Huotang had dark red rims around his eyes and was rolling around with a ball of medicine in his hand.

Inside the ear canal, Shen Can lay on the table, sorting through the data.

"The volcano has about forty-nine levels of power. It fought to a draw with Uncle Huo Kui, who had just advanced to the Heavenly Vein, but it couldn't defeat Huo Tang."

……

under night.

Outside the pond in the eastern marshland where the water beasts were hunted, the water gurgled and splashed.

In the shallow water, where aquatic plants grow abundantly, a dark shadow appears among them.

The figure swam in the shallow water, slowly rising from the water, revealing a pair of upright legs.

On the shimmering fish head, a pair of arms stretched out and quickly emerged from the water, revealing a middle-aged human face.

Its nostrils twitched as it walked to the outside of the previously dug pond, its eyes surveying the half-filled artificial river.

As he muttered incantations, the fine scales that had rolled up on his body quickly disappeared into his body, and he transformed back into human form.

A torrent of water flowed around him, swirling and churning.

"There are also tribes nearby."

A look of surprise appeared on Fu's face.

After circling the pond and sniffing around, he stood in the knee-deep water, twisting and turning, as fine scales grew out, and then he bent over and submerged into the water.
