Chapter 325: Chapter 316: Dragon Fall Ridge!_1

"There is no alternate, only a fight to the death!"

The resounding voices, mixed with the will of iron-blooded warriors, echoed incessantly throughout the Great Hall.

"We are willing to fight to the death alongside the Chief!"

"At most, we fight to our death in the Great Wasteland. Would they dare to slaughter our 170,000 members without fear of the backlash of the human fortune, bringing calamity upon their own tribe!"

"This Great Wasteland belongs to our Human Tribe. Does Iron Mo really think he can block out the sky with one hand? The human fate will be evident, those who cause chaos in tribes and help others commit evils will indeed suffer misfortune!"

Xiao Chen did not respond, instead, he returned to his seat. His gaze scanned all the tribal people below. His clear eyes seemed to be able to see through the bottom of a person’s heart. This time, as they met Xiao Chen’s gaze, no one looked away. Their gaze steadfast, their expression resolute.

"Our Gu Yuan Tribe still has a glimmer of hope!"

After a long pause, Xiao Chen abruptly spoke. The Great Hall fell into astonishment.

What!

Everyone looked at each other in disbelief. Did the Chief have a way for the tribe to safely avoid this disaster? Only the three elders who knew Xiao Chen’s respected ideas, and Mu Qing and a few others, exchanged glances and nodded slightly.

"Chief.....!"

Eventually, someone couldn’t contain the excitement in their hearts and asked aloud.

"Are we going to move the entire tribe into the desolate area of the Great Wasteland?"

At this moment, Meng Yue, the thousand-man leader, guessed. His original tribe was near the edge of the desolate area at the south of the Giant Stone Valley. There, surrounded by mountains and bad waters, the vast wilderness is everywhere. Ferocious beasts often rampage, ordinary tribes can hardly survive. Meng Yue’s original tribe, although not close to the desolate area, the harsh survival environment did not allow his tribe to grow beyond six thousand.

Xiao Chen didn’t keep the tribe waiting for long, he continued, "You all should know the history of our Giant Stone Valley, right? Tens of thousands of years ago, the area of Giant Stone Valley was extraordinarily large. As a valley surrounded by mountains, it was one of the top three valleys in the area among the valleys formed in the Luo Long Mountain Range, which spans half the territory of the southeast continent. Not only that, during that era, the human race in our Giant Stone Valley was indomitably strong. There were human powerhouses who opened up ancient routes to other valleys, even reaching remote areas in the Vast Wilderness Continent’s Southern Desolation."

"Does the Chief know the ancient route opened by our human ancestors tens of thousands of years ago."

However, as soon as the words fell, a bitter smile appeared on everyone’s face. During the past tens of thousands of years, the earth underwent drastic changes. The land has become unrecognizable, war has caused the valley to shrink, and even if they knew the route of this ancient road, they wouldn’t be able to pass through using their current strength. Luo Long Mountain Range is a paradise for beasts, even home to Beast Kings. They would probably be wiped out even before they got deep into the mountain range."

At this time, a worn-out beast skin scroll appeared in Xiao Chen’s hand. The patterns of mountains and rivers and meandering rivers were faintly visible on it. It seemed to be a map. It was the one he received from Elder Gu Lin some time ago.

"According to the current strength of our Gu Yuan Tribe, there’s no way we can fight against middle-tier Iron Hoof Tribe, and much less against the four human war tribes of the Giant Stone Valley. Our only option is to move the tribe and temporarily avoid conflict, wait until we become strong enough to retaliate in the future!"

Xiao Chen’s decision was in line with everyone’s thoughts. After all, with tough enemy and weak self, a fight to the death would only result in the destruction of the tribe and the people.

"Our Gu Yuan Tribe resides in the south-central area of the Giant Stone Valley, just tens of thousands of miles away from the southern part of the valley. Therefore, our tribal leader has decided to move the entire tribe to the barren lands in the southern part of the Giant Stone Valley, near the Dragon Fall Ridge in the Luo Long Mountain Range!"

What!?

It’s actually Dragon Fall Ridge!

For all the human tribes in the Giant Stone Valley, the Dragon Fall Ridge is a distant legend. It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, there was a human ancient city in Dragon Fall Ridge. This city was a hub connecting the Giant Stone to other valleys, but the war from tens of thousands of years ago had already destroyed it, and it has long been buried in the wilderness.

Knowing that the tribes people would have doubts, Xiao Chen didn’t waste any time and went on to say, "Dragon Fall Ridge is in a remote place, infested with ferocious beasts, and is now surrounded by towering mountains, easy to defend but hard to attack. I believe that even under the coercion of the battle envoys, the other tribes in the Giant Stone Valley would not be willing to spend vast resources to invade this wilderness!"

"Tribal leader, the Giant Stone Valley has gone through tens of thousands of years of changes and is no longer the same. The area of Dragon Fall Ridge is vast, and now there are few people. We don’t know what it has become, let alone the fact that Dragon Fall Ridge is surrounded by towering mountains. Even if the battle envoy does not launch an attack, it will not be easy for our tribe to migrate there."

Xiao Chen then lifted a piece of worn beast skin in his hand and said, "This piece of beast skin is a map that our tribe had obtained by chance. It points to the Dragon Fall Ridge in the barren south!"

Xiao Chen handed the beast skin to the Grand Elder, the entire hall fell silent. The worn beast skin circulated among the tribespeople. After a long time, Xiao Chen asked, "What do you all think?"

"Tribal leader, Dragon Fall Ridge is already fifty thousand miles away from our Gu Yuan Tribe. There are countless rivers and mountains to cross. This journey might reach up to a hundred thousand miles. Our tribe has many elderly and weak individuals. Adding the risk of being ambushed mid-way, this is indeed a perilous path!"

"I understand your concerns, but we have no way to retreat. Escaping to other regions will also not exempt us from ambush and blockade. We will be driven into the depths of the Luo Long Mountain Range. Whatever we choose, it’s far worse than it is now. Dragon Fall Ridge is our best choice. At least there were signs of humans living there in the past, which is much better than the ancient forest in the depths of the Luo Long Mountain Range!"

Another silence filled the hall. They understood that their decision meant that the Gu Yuan Tribe had become an isolated and helpless entity, removed from the Iron Hoof Tribe’s list, no longer a tribe recognized by the Human War Tribe. The Tribe’s records within the Iron Hoof City would be completely erased, no longer under the protection of the superior states, becoming a dispersed tribe that lives or dies in the Great Wasteland.

Thud!

A heavy sound rung out, causing the Great Hall to tremble slightly. A nine-foot high ancient cauldron was placed in the middle of the hall. It emitted a wild, ancient aura and brought with it an unspeakable momentum."

What is this?

Looking at the cauldron in front of them, apart from the several Grand Elders, everyone seemed puzzled, having no idea what Xiao Chen was up to.

"This cauldron is called the King’s Cauldron, it was cast from countless divine metals from heaven and earth. Tens of thousands of years ago, it functioned as the Clan Suppression Tool of a Human Dominance Battle Division, drawing the fortunes of the clan, suppressing the clan’s destiny!"

What!?

The news exploded in everyone’s hearts like thunder. A divine artifact capable of suppressing the destiny of a clan has appeared here today. What does this mean!?

For every human tribe in the Great Wasteland, owning a Clan Suppression Tool that can suppress the destiny of a clan is something they dream of. This represents the potential for a tribe’s development. They couldn’t help but realize that if a cauldron capable of suppressing the aura of a Human Dominance Battle Division indicated that this cauldron could potentially allow a tribe to upgrade to a Dominance Battle Division. Having this divine artifact, even if their tribal record on the ancient stele was rubbished by the Iron Hoof Tribe, they already had the power to gather the tribe’s destiny and be recognized by the Human Race Group."

After reclaiming the King’s Cauldron, a hint of murderous intent was visible in Xiao Chen’s eyes as he rose and shouted, "Thirty years make a cycle of reincarnation. Today our Gu Yuan Tribe may be down, but I hope you all never forget the humiliation of leaving home today and repay a hundredfold in the future!"
