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

Chapter 457 No Return

The sudden turmoil within the ruins city terrified the creatures that traded there, and many fled towards the city's outskirts.

Anyone who dares to make a move in the Ruins City is definitely not an ordinary person.

Vast stretches of energy engulfed large areas of the ruins city, and some unfortunate creatures were affected by the energy waves before they could even run a few steps.

Many creatures screamed and flew out, crashing in all directions; whether they lived or died was up to fate.

Click!

In the northeast corner of the city of ruins, Niu Hun led three sixth-level alien races in an attack, and a terrifying energy mist immediately surged forth.

The shamanic array, resembling an inverted bowl, lit up with a dazzling light, and countless brilliant shamanic runes shone, opening up a section of the sky.

As a city with a trading function, various races and beings engage in trade or barter with other beings, so not all humans are within the protection of the witch array.

A significant portion of the human race interacted with other races both inside and outside their settlement.

The various alien races led by Niu Hun did not take these humans who had gone out to travel seriously. Their goal was to break through the human settlement's defenses, storm in, and wipe out the human race in one fell swoop.

Therefore, most of the humans who were outside the protection of the witch array and not far from the camp were directly covered by the terrifying energy and died before they could even make a sound.

Of course, other races that were exchanging goods near the human settlements were also affected.

"combine!"

The Weaver Girl appeared in the encampment, her hands forming intricate hand seals, and countless rays of starlight transformed into stars of varying sizes that fell within the great formation.

The great formation, which was under attack and was already on the verge of collapse, suddenly had stars fall into it, with hundreds of stars of different sizes embedded in various parts of the large bowl.

The formation, shaped like an inverted bowl, immediately became stable.

Amidst the surging energy, the overturned bowl stood like a lighthouse amidst the giant waves, impregnable and unshakeable, a sight that startled Niu Hun.

Without hesitation, Niu Hun shouted, "Tear apart the formation with me!"

As he spoke, he transformed into his true form, a bull-headed python as large as a mountain, with two enormous bull horns gleaming with dark light, which converged into beams of light and blasted towards the great formation.

As Niu Hun transformed into his true form, the Bone Ridge Clan Chief also transformed into a creature resembling a mountain of white bones, and together with Niu Hun, they blasted towards the same location of the great formation.

Beside them, the chieftain of Gangshan tribe transformed into a giant of mountain rocks, holding a stone spear hundreds of feet in size.

The Qiulin tribe transformed into a body resembling both a snake and a dragon.

The four figures were all targeting the same location, shooting towards it with terrifying energy.

Boom!

At that very moment, the towering cannon within the formation roared to life.

A terrifying burst of energy erupted from the cannon's muzzle, and the cannonball, made from a sixth-order spirit and a sun stone, hurtled toward Niu Hun with lightning speed.

Although the patriarchs of the three clans, including Gushan, were not in the same place as Niu Hun, they naturally gravitated towards Niu Hun in order to attack the same location of the great formation.

The sorcerer's cannon shot out a thousand feet outside the formation before colliding with the energy of Niu Hun and several other sixth-tier powerhouses. Boom!

The energy was so violent at that moment that it engulfed Niu Hun and the others, and also engulfed the human race's witch formation.

"Moo!"

As a sixth-tier peak being, Niu Hun sensed something was wrong the moment the witch cannon was activated.

Lowering its head, a pair of bull horns lit up, and dazzling orange-red witchcraft flowed out, transforming into a witchcraft tornado that blocked the bull's body.

Unfortunately, the cannonballs fired from the witch cannon were incredibly powerful. The violent energy after the explosion spread like wildfire, instantly destroying the witch-inscribed tornado in front of the bull.

The energy released from the collision of the extreme yin and yang forces struck the bull's entire body.

The two bull horns that were hit first broke off, and the bull was blasted backward.

Then, more energy tore through his ox-snake body, and the extreme cold spread out, quickly freezing most of his body.

However, the power of extreme yang was not to be outdone, and it held its ground on the other half of the body.

The two extreme forces clashed mercilessly, using Niu Hun's body as their battleground.

Large patches of scales fell off the cow's body, scattering like flying knives.

At the same time, muffled groans and screams rang out around Niu Hun.

The Bone Ridge Clan Chief's body made cracking sounds as his lean, slender frame bent over under the impact of the energy and was blasted hundreds of feet away.

Flames clung to the hem of his clothes, climbing upwards, and blood and bones fell off in a soft, burning motion.

Chief Qiulin was clearly not as lucky as Chief Gulin. The two horns that Niu Hun broke off carried two energies, one extremely yin and the other extremely yang, and blasted into his body.

Chief Qiulin screamed in agony as he was tormented by the dual torment of ice and fire. His massive body crashed into the ground, and a gash hundreds of feet wide was torn open by the bull's horns. Before his internal organs could even begin to flow, half of them froze and the other half burned away.

The Gushan clan chief fared somewhat better; he was also swept away by the energy and crashed into the ruins, luckily avoiding the eruption of Yin-Yang power.

All of this happened very quickly. The bursting yin and yang energy swept out like a whirlwind, flattening all buildings and mountains in its path.

As for the other creatures in the city, apart from the first wave of unlucky ones, the rest had already run away.

In the Great Wilderness, you may lack strength, but you cannot lack insight, and you certainly cannot lack stamina.

On the human side, the great formation cracked and sputtered, breaking apart with countless fissures.

But after the cannon fired, a tortoise-shell-shaped defensive array rose up inside the bowl-shaped magic array.

In the blink of an eye, fine cracks began to appear on the tortoise shell defensive array.

However, within the formation, the Weaver Girl continuously cast spells, and starlight emerged from the tortoise shell defensive formation, the cracks disappeared, and the formation quickly stabilized.

Seeing this, Yan Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. Firing in front of his own witch formation meant he had to withstand a considerable energy impact.

There was no other way. With so many late-stage and peak sixth-tier beings attacking, the witch formation couldn't possibly hold them off. It was better to fight to the death.

In fact, Yan Jiang had no idea what had happened.

In just that short time, the entire city of ruins had descended into complete chaos.

At this moment, amidst the bursts of energy, only the incessant screams of Prince Bizhen could be heard.

"Come on, come on, whoever runs away is a bastard!"

Amidst the bursts of energy, Prince Bizhen stood upright, one of his front paws gripping a bronze halberd, the other a bronze spear, his roar echoing in all directions.

The sound was so loud that even creatures that had run outside the city felt their eardrums bulge.

Shouting, Bi Zhen thrust his bronze spear forward, aiming at Jue Ling Shi.

This spear is swirling with wind, rain, thunder, and lightning; it moves with lightning speed and is invincible.

The Spirit Envoy dared not fight at all and was running frantically, already with six or seven bloody holes in his body.

These holes were created in the span of a few breaths during the fight; he was no match for Prince Bizhen at all.

While the Crown Prince of Zhangshui was still struggling to comprehend the Dao of Thunder, Crown Prince Bizhen had already mastered the four Dao of Wind, Rain, Thunder, and Lightning. With a single move, he stabbed the Spirit Envoy, causing him to bleed profusely.

"Ang ang ang!"

Seeing that the Spirit Envoy was still running, the True Prince followed closely behind.

Sensing the approaching killing intent, the Spirit Envoy was terrified. His rapid escape was already causing blood to gush out of his body, but he could only mobilize more blood energy to turn into blood fire and speed up his escape.

As for stopping and blocking, let's forget about it.

The true prince was incredibly swift; his bronze spear pierced through the Spirit Envoy once more, as fast as lightning.

Blood light burst from the Spirit Slayer's body as he tried to break free of the bronze spear, but it was too late.

Prince Yuanzhen wielded another bronze halberd, imbued with the four great Daoist principles of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, slashing down and directly cleaving the Spirit-Slaying Envoy in two.

The moment the bull's head and the snake's body split apart, they were enveloped by the Daoist principles of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and all life was strangled to death.

The death of the Spirit Envoy frightened the Spirit Envoys and the Xun Spirit Envoy, who were working together to besiege the Silver Horned Beast King.

No one expected that one of them would be taken down so soon after the battle had just begun.

After Prince Pinzhen killed the Spirit Envoy, he rushed towards the direction of the Silver Horned Beast King.

But as soon as the Silver Horned Beast King glared, the True Prince turned around and charged towards the human settlement, his halberd and bronze spear falling down amidst wind, rain, and lightning.

With a series of "plop plop plop" sounds, the heads of the Gangshan tribe and other creatures that were besieging the human race were lifted into the air, and blood gushed out in all directions.

Just as Bi Zhen was about to give chase to the fleeing Niu Hun, he discovered that a streak of light had already followed Niu Hun away.

He sensed Shen Can's presence from the stream of light, and then Bi Zhen stopped moving.

"Boring, that's it."

With the bronze halberd and bronze spear placed behind his back, Bi Zhen put his hands on his hips and looked down at the surrounding area.

He wanted to help Silver Horn out again, but Silver Horn wouldn't allow it.

Really, it's just one or two snakes, why make such a clear distinction?

He doesn't want the spoils of war.

After glaring away Prince Bizhen, who was trying to come to help, the Silver Horned Beast King roared, and a giant silver-horned beast, over 30,000 feet in size, appeared in the sky.

Roar!

-

The behemoth roared, opened its mouth and swallowed everything in front of it, including the Wrinkled Spirit Envoy and the Dam Spirit Envoy, who had already fled but were held in by the powerful suction and swallowed by the silver-horned behemoth.

Within the mouth of the silver-horned behemoth, silver rays of light and purple lightning transformed into a sea of ​​thunder, surging wildly.

The two spirit envoys, Zhou Ling and Xun Ling, who were swallowed, let out a miserable scream. They tried to struggle but their blood energy was too weak to be mobilized by the thunder.

Then, the silver-horned behemoth's huge mouth closed, its fangs, as sharp as celestial blades, chewed, a scream accompanied by a cracking sound, and blood flowed from the corner of its mouth.

"I thought some old thing was spying on me, but it turned out to be just two or three little bull snakes."

Above the ruins city, within a cloud, a bluebird perched on a golden horn, its head tilted to one side.

"Looks like you've come all this way for nothing, buddy."

Within the clouds, the Golden Horned Beast King, like a golden, shimmering blue crystal beast, held the surrounding clouds at bay.

"Ah Yin was right to call me here; it's better to be careful than to make a big mistake."

The Golden Horned Beast King spoke softly, "This time it was just a group of small bull snakes, but next time it might be an evil spirit."

"Damn disgusting thing," the bluebird cooed twice.

"Looks like I need to be careful. Those bull-snake tribe guys are everywhere, and they're a nuisance to birds."

Outside the ruins city, the one chasing Niu Hun was naturally Shen Can's giant beast clone.

At this moment, Yan Jiang, who was inside the formation, also breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, today's battle was completely unexpected; we were caught off guard.

Of course, upon seeing Niu Hun's appearance, he realized who had launched a surprise attack on the human race.

Temple Tiao had told him about this bull-headed, snake-bodied fellow.

After the battle, more than half of the ruins city was reduced to ruins, with various energies such as wind, rain, thunder, lightning, extreme yin, and extreme yang spreading throughout the ruins.

Prince Bizhen examined the tortoise-shell-like formation and said softly, "Not bad."

Of course, the extremely Yin and Yang-like Witch Cannonball is even better, but the Witch Cannonball is clearly the human race's trump card. The True Prince plans to discuss this with Shen Can in private.

After saying this, Bi Zhen headed towards the direction of the Silver Horned Beast King.

"The Bull-Snake Clan really underestimates us. They only sent three guys like this; they're not even enough to fight us."

The Silver Horned Beast King was speechless. He had prepared everything, thinking there was a powerful opponent lurking in the shadows. He was so scared that he even called his own brother.

I didn't expect that to be it?

The fact that three near-seventh-level cultivators dared to make a move made him a little unsure.

Could this be a striker?

It's not that these three members of the Bull-Snake Clan are weak; they are near the seventh rank and come from the Bull-Snake Clan, so their combat strength is indeed stronger than others of the same rank.

Unfortunately, we ran into the two of them.

Leaving aside himself, just look at Bi Zhen, that little dragon turtle. He has already comprehended the four Daoist principles of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning. It can be said that he has comprehended the most types of Daoist principles in their circle of near-seventh-level cultivators.

Not only did they comprehend a large number of Daoist principles, but their physical bodies were also extremely powerful. These three near-seventh-level members of the Bull-Snake Clan were simply courting death.

"You won't even give me one more."

Bi Zhen felt a little disappointed that she had only managed to kill one enemy.

"If you hadn't been waiting outside, you wouldn't have gotten a turn at all."

The Silver Horned Beast King was speechless; the little dragon turtle's talent was truly enviable.

"That makes sense. It seems like you can actually get into fights by keeping watch outside."

Once Yuan Zhen thought about it, he stopped worrying about it; at least he had managed to get one.

"Send a message to my elder brother; the Bull-Snake Clan will probably not let this go."

Bi Zhen spoke, then looked around again, but couldn't find the bluebird anywhere.

The bluebird disappeared the moment the battle began.

As an auspicious beast, don't be fooled by its mid-stage sixth rank; it's not something that can be easily captured.

Auspicious beasts are wondrous and possess many unique abilities, making them incomparable to others. For example, the Bluebird is incredibly fast and can even break through restrictions, allowing it to escape unimpeded.

The Silver Horned Beast King nodded. Although the human race was also attacked by the Bull Serpent Clan, in his view, the Bluebird was the Bull Serpent Clan's main target, and the human race was secondary.

Then, the Silverhorn Beast King spoke up, "Are the humans alright?"

"There's a protective formation, so it's not a big deal."

Crown Prince Bizhen shook his head. "However, the days ahead will probably not be so peaceful."

"It's a good thing my brother Huocan isn't here. If he were, these bulls and snakes would be even more excited if they found him."

"Sixth-tier auspicious beasts are hard to find, and seventh-tier ones are like wild spirits, impossible to find. Pure human races that have the potential to advance to the seventh tier are no less capable than sixth-tier auspicious beasts."

"A seventh-tier pure human—" The true prince paused, his thoughts drifting away.

"Goodness, why did I suddenly think of Brother Huocan being bathed and placed on the altar?"

"No, we have to send him a message: try not to show up again, lest he get caught and kept as a pet."

Bi Zhen's words made Yin Jiao nod. In fact, in the eyes of some major clans, these beast kings and dragons were also sacrifices offered to their ancestors.

After all, when people worship their ancestors, some of the sacrifices are only made in name to the ancestors, while the real beneficiaries are all the living beings, big and small, within the clan.

We offer sacrifices to our ancestors, and then it's the living beings' turn to share.

In ancient clan rituals, for example, they would capture seventh-ranking beings as offerings, to honor their ancestors and also to distribute to their descendants.

But compared to that, what our ancestors could actually eat is more important.

"Oh, you're back."

As they were talking, Prince Bizhen saw a human youth approaching from the distance.

Upon hearing the sound, the Silver Horned Beast King looked over and revealed a hint of confusion.

"You wouldn't believe it, would you? This is Brother Huo Can's clone."

Prince Pinzhen looked at the giant beast clone and spoke softly to the Silver Horned Beast King.

The Silver Horned Beast King sensed the fifth-tier aura emanating from the boy, yet there was also an inexplicable strangeness about him.

Pin Zhen's words didn't seem like a lie to him; this guy was born with extraordinary abilities and could sense auras that others couldn't.

-

"I also told you to stop wandering around aimlessly, lest you get captured and kept as a pet by the Bull-Snake Clan."

99

The behemoth approached Pinzhen and Yinjiao, two near-seventh-tier beings, and looked them up and down.

"Brother, it seems you were prepared all along, knowing you couldn't just wander around aimlessly. If you cultivate to the near-seventh level, you'll be as rare as Brother Silver Horn's Bluebird."

At that time, wouldn't that attract the seventh-tier members of the Bull-Snake Clan to capture you, then raise you and provide you with the best resources to help you advance to the seventh tier?

"However, your clone is too good; it possesses some divine abilities and will be coveted by the Bull-Snake Clan just as much."

After the giant beast clone arrived at the City of Ruins, it did not show itself, but unexpectedly, it was recognized by Bi Zhen at a glance.

But that's normal, this guy is a bit strange.

The giant beast's clone had gone after Niu Hun, who had already been killed. As for related memories, none were found.

When Niu Hun was killed, his soul was destroyed along with his shattered body.

"I'm going to find Brother Zhangshui. The Ox-Snake Clan is powerful, but they're not powerful enough to control everything. If they dare to come again, I'll make sure they don't leave alive."

After saying that, Bi Zhen headed towards the ruins.

Silver Horned Beast King nodded. As the younger brother of a seventh-tier beast king, his elder brother, Golden Horned Holy Beast King, formed an alliance with other seventh-tier beast kings not only for further cultivation but also to have helpers in case of danger.

If the ones who came to capture the Bluebird were of the seventh rank, then this great battle would not have ended so easily.

"It has affected the human race."

The Silver Horned Beast King looked at the giant beast clone and said, "The Bull-Snake Clan is very powerful. Be careful from now on. Call me if you encounter any danger."

Thank you.

The giant beast's clone nodded in thanks.

While the Bull-Snake Clan was capturing Bluebirds, they were also capturing humans, which greatly improved the relationship between the Silver Horned Beast King and the humans.

The giant beast's clone returned to the human settlement.

Yan Liu was leading his men out of the tortoise shell formation to besiege the remaining fifth-tier beings of the Gangshan and other clans.

As for the broken remains of the sixth-order beings of these races, they have all been collected inside the pagoda.

Although Bi Zhen killed these people, he didn't want their remains; he just wanted to fight.

Another group of humans were tidying up the surrounding ruins, collecting the remaining human bones and blood.

However, under such an energy burst, the remaining blood and bones were already broken beyond recognition, and some were merely bloodstains on the soil and rocks.

The main reason was that the Bull-Snake Clan acted too suddenly, and the humans outside didn't have time to react.

The formation blocked the first attack, and Yan Jiang immediately used a move that "killed a thousand enemies but lost eight hundred of her own," detonating the witch cannon shell outside the formation.

However, to be fair, beings at the late and peak stages of the sixth rank possess incredibly strong physical bodies. They withstood the Yin-Yang Witch Cannonballs without dying; it was only after Prince Bizhen and Miaotao's clones took action to eliminate them.

At this moment, not only are humans gathering resources, but all the other races that had previously fled abroad are now rushing back in droves.

Most of the city has been reduced to ruins, but there are all sorts of resources in those ruins.

They were so focused on escaping that they left behind some treasure ships, flying boats, and houses.

Now that the fighting is over, they naturally have to come back to collect their belongings, and they've even started fighting each other again.

However, these creatures did not approach the direction of the human race; instead, they avoided it by a great distance.

However, just as many creatures were scrambling for resources from the ruins, treasure ships flew out from the human defensive array.

Then, it dragged up the remaining creatures of the Gushan, Gulin, and Qiulin tribes, and then disappeared into the mountains with a rumble.

Many creatures looked up at the vanished fleet and immediately realized what was happening.

Humanity is going to be wiped out!
