Chapter 368: Chapter 358: Inheriting the Battle Name Blood Robe Marquis (Second Update)_1

At Xiao Chen’s command, several elders soon left, leaving only Xiao Chen and Blood Sha in the great hall. Blood Sha was curious as to why Xiao Chen had chosen to keep him alone, but he didn’t speak up, waiting respectfully for Xiao Chen’s next instruction.

"My blood brother, you have been with our Gu Yuan Tribe for several months already. It is unpredictable in this vast wilderness. Who would have thought that the Gu Yuan Tribe would be forced into such a predicament, driven to a distant corner thousands of miles away in the Great Wilderness, and further necessitating a great battle with the demonic tribes entrenched in this Dragon Fall Territory."

Blood Sha sighed at Xiao Chen’s words. No one could have expected things to develop this way. In order to satisfy his personal desires, the Iron Hoof War Division’s envoy falsely accused the innocent and forced the Gu Yuan Tribe to establish themselves independently, freeing them from the Iron Hoof War Division’s control.

"However, my blood brother, you are a true man. During these past few days, the entire Gu Yuan Tribe, from top to bottom, has seen your actions clearly. We are very fortunate indeed to have you join our Gu Yuan Tribe!"

"The chieftain needn’t say anything. Originally, Blood Sha was just a wanderer without a home. My only wish was to save my wife. I only had the chance to turn things around because I had the good fortune of receiving the chieftain’s help. Moreover, I have already sworn to join the Gu Yuan Tribe and pledged my allegiance in front of the blood of past generations of the tribe. I am just performing my duties, and dare not claim any credit!"

"Blood brother, you know about the fact that Shi Ya and Qing Er became inheritors of martial arts, don’t you?" Xiao Chen continued, "I obtained three great inheritance battle soldiers that day, apart from Qing Er’s Inheriting Divine Weapon Purple Snake Sword and Shi Ya’s Inheriting Divine Weapon Earth-shaking Hammer, there is one more Inheritable Divine Weapon, the Blood Saber, and now I intend to give this divine weapon to you!"

Wham!

A flash of red light in Xiao Chen’s hand revealed a three-foot-long war saber. The saber was blood-red, with the appearance of fresh blood flowing within it. The saber body even emitted a humming sound, and a strong smell of blood rushed towards them—it had undoubtedly drunk the fresh blood of many foreign races.

"This...." Blood Sha was slightly stupefied, and after a moment he reacted, "The chieftain can’t do this! What kind of merit do I have to be able to receive this inherited divine weapon!"

"This Blood Saber is an inherited divine weapon of the Blood Robe Marquis. When I got this saber, the previous owner, the fourth-generation Blood Robe Marquis, had already been killed in the vast wilderness for tens of thousands of years!"

"Blood brother, it is considered a heroic gift when a treasure sword is given to a hero. This Blood Saber strongly resonates with you. Ever since it came to my hands, there have been no strange signs or reactions for several months. The saber began to hum and buzz the moment I saw you. Doesn’t this just indicate that the divine blade is picking its master?"

"This......" Blood Sha looked at the blood-red saber in front of him. You can’t say he didn’t want it. Being a martial artist from the great wilderness, who didn’t know that whoever slaughtered a million on the foreign battlefield would receive the fortune of the human race, accumulated his own battle name, and from then on, benefitted from the fortune of the human race, eventually improving their cultivation at a rapid pace.

However, it was extremely difficult to slaughter a million on the foreign battlefield. Not to speak of the entire wilderness, even among the many human warriors in the Giant Stone Valley, only a handful could receive the fortunes. Not only was strength needed for such a slaughter, but it also had to be underpinned by a great faith.

Of course, there was another way to acquire inheritance battle honors, through inheriting the battle honors of past warriors. Nonetheless, both of these paths represented the great strength of the warriors who inherited battle honors.

"Chief, I absolutely can’t accept this. The inherited battle honors are priceless," finally, Blood Sha refused Xiao Chen again.

"Blood brother, now we are members of the same battle division, how can you still be so distant? Besides, based on the merits that you have made since joining our Gu Yuan Tribe, you deserve this inherited divine weapon. After all, without someone to wield it, even this divine Blood Saber would be nothing more than a piece of scrap metal!"

Boom!

Eventually, under Xiao Chen’s dominance, Xue Sha kneeled on one knee and respectfully accepted the blood-colored war saber from Xiao Chen’s hand.

"Xue Sha will surely not disappoint the expectations of the clan leader and the tribe!"

As for handing over the inherited divine blood-sword to Xue Sha, Xiao Chen also went through some considerations. Xue Sha had sworn a blood oath and, under the witness of many tribal elders, joined the Gu Yuan Tribe, becoming a member of the Gu Yuan Tribe. A pledge is a warrior’s creed in life. The Great Wasteland is not the world of rampant desires as in later generations, where relationships are full of cunning and scheming. In the Great Wasteland, a pledge links to divine punishment in profound ways; it is a kind of mysterious and unknown power. Whoever betrays their pledge will suffer divine punishment, and even continuous bad luck until death.

Warriors in the Great Wasteland value pledges greatly. It is crucial to a warrior’s cultivation. If one keeps their beliefs intact, their cultivation will be smooth. If a pledge is abandoned, their spirit will be tarnished, leading to a mental disorder.

"Blood Brother, I’m entrusting this blood saber to you now. The war with the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range is imminent. Our tribe is somewhat lacking in top-level warriors compared to the demon race. Now that you have reached the peak stage of the late Blood Refining Realm, and have opened nine meridians, you should first take some pills upon returning, using their power to open up the tenth Heavenly Meridian. Then, refine this weapon, the Blood Saber. This might make things a bit easier. After all, inheriting a divine weapon isn’t without challenges. You need to break through these challenges by yourself, Blood Brother!"

Afterward, Xiao Chen told Xue Sha some things he knew about refining inherited divine weapons. However, as an inherited battle soldier, each weapon has been drenched in the fresh blood of a million different races; passing the test is extremely difficult.

After Xue Sha left the Great Hall with the war saber, Xiao Chen also left and returned to his temporary residence, the Blue Stone House.

The three great demon kings of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range are all equivalent to human warriors one step away from the Heavy Tower Realm, having opened all twelve demon meridians, forming a Circulating Heaven Qi Sea. Xiao Chen himself has only opened up the tenth meridian and is also at the peak of the Blood Refining Realm. However, there is a world of difference between them. To be on the safe side, Xiao Chen also wants to enhance his own strength.

The Blood Refining Realm is for opening the Twelve Heavenly Meridians of Circulating Heaven, forming a cycle of continuously generating Combat Qi, which lays the foundation for the next realm, the Heavy Tower Realm in Martial Arts. While the Twelve Heavenly Meridians can be opened sooner or later, the later meridians are more difficult to open, requiring a manifold increase in resources.

Sitting cross-legged on the stone bed, silently operating his techniques, Xiao Chen’s entire consciousness sunk into cultivation. A faint green light flowed all over his body, his blood and Qi surged like a tidal wave. Regardless of how violently the blood and Qi inside his body surged, it was sternly restrained within his meridians, flowing along them in cycles, accumulating strength to break through the barrier of the next meridian.

Boom!

A surge of blood Qi erupted from Xiao Chen’s body, a green glow completely engulfed Xiao Chen’s figure, and after a long time, the glow faded.

Xiao Chen, who was sitting on the stone bed, slowly opened his eyes. Although his face was slightly pale due to the turbulence of blood and Qi, his eyes were brighter than ever before.
