_1 262: Chapter 256: Memorial!

_1 At the top of the tribal stone tower, a green figure stood against the wind, watching the fading light in the depths of the Great Wasteland, his eyes resolute.

Below the stone tower, within the tribe, all the tribal people had resumed their usual routine.

Groups of warriors were gathering at the city gate, preparing to venture into the Great Wasteland to hunt for food.

Meanwhile, the women hurriedly moved along the newly constructed Qing Shi Road, carrying rough tools and chunks of meat, busy with their tasks.

Some young toddlers ran out of their homes like they were crazy, playing chase on the streets, while kids around ten years old looked at the Blue Stone Courtyard on the hill in the distance with envy before they hurriedly headed towards the martial arts venue.

They were at the age for martial arts initiation, and there are specialized warriors in the tribe to teach them.

The elders, leaning on their canes, walked through the tribe, discussing among themselves who among the younger generation had potential, early signs of talent, who has broken through to the Bone Tempering Realm, joining the warriors, or which warrior from which family set off for their first hunt and what kind of prey they had captured.

Many of these elders had retired from their roles as Guardian Clan Soldiers.

Whether it was due to declining vitality or serious injuries, they had already contributed everything they had to the tribe.

In their hearts, there was no longer a desire to compete against other tribes.

Their greatest hopes were for the continuation of the tribe, the well-being of their families, and that the playful children in the tribe could inherit their will, practice diligently, join the warriors, fight the battles in the Great Wasteland, kill the enemies, protect their tribal homeland, and defend the land under their feet!

Xiao Chen stood atop the stone tower, watching this scene for a long time without any change in his expression until he heard a gentle voice behind him.

“Brother Xiao, I don’t know why you summoned Qing Er here!”

He turned back to look at the woman standing before him.

She wasn’t wearing any makeup, her long hair casually draped over her shoulders, ruffled by the gentle breeze.

It was hard to imagine this delicate-looking woman could also be so strong and determined.

The women of the Great Wasteland, even if they were just ordinary women, were no less tenacious than men.

“Qing Er’s strength has improved again, and you have opened up five meridians now, haven’t you?”

“That’s all thanks to the Terrestrial Tier technique book Brother Xiao brought back.

Otherwise, it would have taken me several months to open up another meridian, and the resources I would have used would have been several times what I used before!”

“Hmm,” Xiao Chen agreed.

Ever since Xiao Chen attained the inheritance of the Purple Snake Tribe from the Purple Snake Venerable, he had passed this practice on to Mu Qing.

Furthermore, this massive inheritance contained more than ten Terrestrial Tier martial techniques, among which were two ranked at the middle level of the Terrestrial Tier, namely “Flame Burning Soldiers Art” and “Purple Blood Technique”.

Xiao Chen also allowed the strong ones among the tribe’s chief leaders to choose one Terrestrial Tier Lower Level technique for cultivation.

But to practice the techniques above the middle level of the Terrestrial Tier, they needed to contribute significantly to the tribe to earn the opportunity.

To ensure the safety of these techniques, Xiao Chen personally stored those at the middle level or above of the Terrestrial Tier.

The ancient Gu Yuan Clan’s technique hall had been placed on the upper floor of the stone tower, right next to where Xiao Chen rested.

After his return this time, Xiao Chen had appointed a Technique Elder to guard the collection, not to be left unattended without good reason.

“Follow me!”

Xiao Chen didn’t say anything else.

He took flight, heading to the eastern part of the tribe.

In response, Mu Qing nodded, her figure turning into a streak of green light following close behind.

Two newly built great halls stand in the east of the tribe—built from green stone, they exude a sense of simplicity.

Each hall is several tens of feet high.

On the square in front of the great halls, there is a large, towering stone archway, carved with a variety of terrifying, fierce wild beasts, exuding a stark wild air.

One of the great halls is situated in the exact east of the tribe, and the other to the southeast.

At the moment, Xiao Chen’s destination is the slightly smaller hall to the southeast.

Instead of flying directly into the great hall, he landed outside the archway.

Mu Qing, who followed close behind, was puzzled as to why Xiao Chen had taken her to this great hall.

Not just her, but everyone in the tribe was curious about the purpose of these two great halls.

For all the people in the Great Wasteland, the most important events of the year are the rituals and wars.

The rituals are to honor their ancestors.

Although they do not worship gods or Buddha, they never fail to pay homage to their ancestors year after year.

However, the hall dedicated to their ancestors is located on Soul Mount of Loyalty in the north of the tribe.

Though puzzled, Mu Qing didn’t ask, sensing that Xiao Chen’s mood seemed to have become somewhat solemn.

Boom!

The massive stone gate that was ten meters tall opened with a rumble.

As Xiao Chen stepped into the great hall, Mu Qing was astonished to find that the fifty-meter-long hall was empty, surrounded by stone lamps carved into wild beasts, the flames flickering intensely within.

In the center of the great hall, there is a platform that covers ten meters and is three meters high.

It was made entirely from bronze, depicting numerous giant snakes with wings, howling at the sky.

The snakes represent the fierce beast from the wilderness myth, the Purple Winged Sky-Swallowing Python.

Below the platform is a giant Blue Stone Tripod.

On the wood incense in the tripod, flames flickered, emitting a pleasant fragrance that soothed the spirit.

Atop the high platform, there is a tall, twenty-meter-long stone tablet covered with purple snake patterns.

On this tablet, two huge ancient characters were embossed.

Purple Snake!

Unable to decipher the meaning of these two characters, Mu Qing listened as Xiao Chen’s voice echoed in the vacant hall.

“The martial arts collections I’ve brought back belong to this Purple Snake tribe!”

Xiao Chen’s voice was grave as he narrated the history of the Purple Snake Battle Domain to Mu Qing.

Of course, he didn’t mention anything about the Foreign Void Road.

“These ancestors of the Purple Snake Tribe deserve our respect and worship.

It’s no wonder Brother Xiao ordered the construction of such a grand memorial hall.

In Qing er’s view, in inheriting the will of our forefathers, we must never forget our roots to forge ahead.

All the people of our Gu Yuan Tribe will surely honor and remember this act annually in our rituals!”

Picking up the thick wood incense beside him, Xiao Chen paid his respect ceremoniously before saying, “Exactly.

Since our Gu Yuan Tribe has inherited the heritage passed down by the Purple Snake Tribe, we can’t be ungrateful.

My motive for building this grand hall is to remind our people to remember the blessings bestowed upon us by the Purple Snake Tribe.”

Swoosh!

At this moment, a purple light flashed in Xiao Chen’s hand, emanating an overwhelming aura.

It was the Inheritance Battle Sword from the Purple Snake!
