Chapter 428: Chapter 414 Guess! (One more)_1

The essence of destiny is like a hierarchy, each level being at least ten thousand times higher than the previous one. Let alone the difference between the Luck Pillar and Ying Long’s manifested destiny, which spans several levels. The difference between them is as vast as heaven and earth. How could it possibly be claimed as one’s own?

Even if this Ying Long’s destiny has been weakened by tens of thousands of years of consumption, a wounded divine dragon is still a divine dragon. It cannot be defeated and subjugated by mere ants. This is not a mere disparity at the level of life; it’s entirely incomparable.

Observing his disciple’s stunned expression, the old man didn’t take it seriously. After all, such a thing would be nothing more than a pipe dream for anyone, an occurrence as rare as a thousand years.

When the boy was conscious again, the old man chuckled and said, "Fengyu, have you ever thought that the Gu Yuan Tribe might also be a tribe with a deep fortune, possessing unknown divine objects in the clan to assist them in capturing the remaining Ying Long’s destiny?"

What?!

Fengyu was taken aback. The vast Great Wasteland held countless inheritances, buried deep within. Countless nomadic tribes have flown high in the sky because of such ancestor inheritances, suppressed the Eight Desolate Lands, established their tribes, expanded their territories, even establishing a Yun Tribe. This was not uncommon in the long history of the Great Wasteland. So why couldn’t the Gu Yuan Tribe obtain such a divine object?

"But ....!"

Now, Fengyu still found it hard to believe that the Gu Yuan Tribe would have such good luck.

"Master, tens of thousands of years ago, our Human Ancient City dominated the Desolate Wilds, covering hundreds of millions of miles. Its influence radiated to several nearby domain groups. The grade of this destiny reached the peak level of Ying Long’s destiny. Even from the highest level of Golden Dragon’s destiny, it was just one step away. If the Holy City still stood, after thousands of years of development, it might have evolved into a Golden Dragon’s destiny by now!"

Fengyu’s face still bore a hint of disbelief. He didn’t believe that an inferior Human War Tribe would stumble upon such a windfall. This must be due to a very deep fortune.

"Even if the Holy City was destroyed and Ying Long’s destiny was struck down, leaving only a trace buried deep beneath the earth, Ying Long is still Ying Long. If the Gu Yuan Tribe can gather Ying Long’s destiny, the divine object they would gain must be of high quality. If not, when Ying Long awakens, the low-ranking battle tribe wouldn’t be able to carry such a high-level destiny. The recoil could completely destroy the Gu Yuan Tribe. Could it be that the Gu Yuan Tribe really gained such a divine artifact through a twist of fate?"

"The Golden Scale Fish is ready!"

The old man avoided Fengyu’s question and instead looked at the boiling jade pot. At this moment, the ancient wood was burning, the spiritual springs within the jade pot were bubbling, and the translucent pale yellow fish meat was rolling inside, permeating a rosy aura that was tantalisingly delicious.

Then, the old man took out two jade chopsticks, handed one to Fengyu, and eagerly fished out a piece of translucent fish fillet. The translucent fish meat melted in the mouth, and the rich Primal Energy burst into the belly, with a rosy glow spilling from the corners of the mouth.

The fish meat entering the stomach immediately converted into a fiery Qi flow, soaking into every corner of the body, releasing a magnificent Blood Qi. Perhaps this Blood Qi was negligible to their current strength, but that sensation made all pores open up and brought clarity through their bodies.

In half an incense stick’s time, a pot of Golden Scale Fish and the crystalline, creamy white fish soup had been consumed by the two.

The old man contentedly patted his belly before speaking again, "This Golden Scale Fish is a variant species from the Desolate Wilds. However, the Golden Scale Fish strains in this lake have significantly diluted bloodlines. Although Golden Scale Fish does not cultivate, it is flourishing with Qi and blood. It is an excellent tonic for cultivation. There was once a Human Warrior who was fortunate enough to acquire a purebred Golden Scale Fish. His cultivation soared, breaking through to the peak of the Blood Refining Realm overnight. His blood’s vitality was majestic, not inferior to a genuine Blood Refining Realm Extreme Martial Artist. However, because of his insufficient willpower and mentality, his breakthrough was restricted, unable to break the limit and advance to the level of Zhong Lou Realm Martial Artist. Are such chances in the Desolate Land that scarce?"

Indeed! The Desolate Wilds span an unknowable distance. Their Border Wasteland Region was just a small domain among the tens of domains in the Eastern Wasteland’s Southern Region, and their position in the Border Wasteland Region was equivalent to the status of Border Wasteland Region among the numerous domain groups in the Southern Region.

"Could it be the bronze tripod atop the sacrificial altar?"

Suddenly, this sentence slipped from Fengyu’s lips. When he rode on the Azure Bird, sweeping over the ancient city of the Gu Yuan Tribe from ten miles away in the sky, he saw a bronze tripod sitting at the top of the altar in the center of the tribe. At that time, it was just a cursory glance, and he didn’t pay much attention to it.

Thinking about it now, this tripod was placed atop the highest altar; it must certainly be an important object that maintains the Tribe’s destiny.

There’s an ancient saying about the tripod stabilizing the mountains and rivers. Considering the gravity of a heavy object like a tripod, comparable to Mount Tai, with weight that was as heavy as the earth itself. If divine objects were crafted in the form of a tripod, their status must be incredibly high.

Upon seeing the puzzled look on the elderly man’s face from his baseless words, Fengyu hurriedly informed the old man about seeing the bronze tripod on the Gu Yuan Tribe’s sacrificial altar.

"You’re saying that there’s a big tripod on the sacrificial tower with exotic animal patterns on it? Could you see any inscriptions clearly?"

"The warriors of the Gu Yuan Tribe are too vigilant. I just [swept over their territory] from a distance and almost got caught. I took a quick look, but only saw the word ’sacrifice’."

The old man was silent. The entire ancient mountain fell into quiet, except for the rustling from the occasional gust of wind that blew through their battle robes.

"The Tripod is an ultimate heavy instrument that suppresses the destiny of mountains and rivers. The first Human Emperor of our human race once drove away the Hundred Clans and established a stable reign over the great wilds by collecting all the divine gold around the world and casting nine bronze tripods. These helped pacify the land of the human race. This is the origin of our Human Clan’s stable reign of mountains and rivers. These nine divine tripod artifacts are still located on the ancestral land of our human race, suppressing the destiny of the entire human realm. The luck of all the tribes of our human race comes from these nine divine tripods!"

Suddenly, the old man’s eyes concentrated, two sharp lights flashed in his eyes, the originally old posture disappeared without a trace. At this moment, it was as if a lion had awoken, and the surrounding air suddenly solidified. A bird that was just flying over the sky was instantly immobilized and dropped to the ground.

"The destiny of our ancient city passed down is of a very high grade. To occupy and claim it for themselves, their tribal divine objects must certainly be high grade as well. Moreover, divine objects now in the great wilds are rare. The insignificant Gu Yuan Tribe, with its shallow foundations would have a hard time collecting divine materials to forge a heavy instrument. It’s as difficult as climbing to the heavens. They’ve definitely inherited the ancestor’s legacy!"
