Chapter 967: Chapter 950: Clan Sacrifice Begins, War Soldier Welcomes Guests!

By the time the purple and gold misty colors in the Tribal Grand Hall had faded, Xiao Chen had opened his eyes only to find that the Divine King Cauldron had disappeared from the Desolate Lands, replaced instead by dozens of smaller Fortune Divine Objects.

These divine objects varied in size, the smallest only the size of two or three adult fists, approximately a foot in dimension, mostly in the shape of cauldrons. Of course, these cauldrons varied—some had three legs, others four; some were round, and some were square. In addition to these, there were also those in the shape of mountains.

Despite being only the size of two or three fists, they were sufficient to gather the tribal fortune of a mid-rank Battle Division.

There were, in total, fifty-six of these divine objects capable of suppressing the fortune of a mid-rank Battle Division.

Moreover, there were also some fortune divine objects larger than a foot, capable of suppressing the fortune of a higher-ranked Battle Division, totaling twenty-one.

Beyond these, in front of Xiao Chen, there were also five three-foot-tall Fortune Divine Cauldrons. The engravings and scrolls of paintings on these five Divine Cauldrons were even clearer, and ancient seal characters were even imprinted on the surface of the cauldrons.

The five Fortune Divine Cauldrons were capable of suppressing the fortune of a Marquis-ranked Battle Division.

At this moment, Xiao Chen’s aura was somewhat fatigued, his complexion slightly pale, as utilizing the power of fortune to refine the Divine King Cauldron had greatly exhausted him.

Moreover, the number of pieces he had managed to divide was somewhat less than his initial estimate. He had originally thought he could divide more than a hundred, but in the end, he only managed to split eighty-two pieces.

After gathering these fortune divine objects, Xiao Chen did not stand up but began to close his eyes and recuperate from his depletion.

Two days later, in the Tribal Grand Hall.

All warriors of the Gu Yuan Tribe above the fourth level of the Layered Tower Realm were present.

The reason that only those above the fourth level were present was that, following a period of rest and healing, the tribe’s strength had surged remarkably, with many advancing to the Layered Tower Realm.

Despite this, the vast majority of these newly advanced warriors had exhausted their potential, as the Martial Arts Tower imposed limitations on them due to their innate capabilities.

Now in the Gu Yuan Tribe, only those who on advancement to the Layered Tower Realm had innately forged mid-tier grade four or higher could receive further cultivation from the tribe, a requirement that had become a threshold for entering the Elder Hall.

The venerables and powerful beings of today’s Gu Yuan Tribe, together with Xiao Chen’s eight disciples, numbered as many as thirty.

Xue Sha, Shi Ya, Qiu Hu, and Nianhua reached even the Seventh Level of the Layered Tower Realm!

However, reaching this stage meant that for warriors like Qiu Hu and Xue Sha, their Martial Arts path was nearly at an end, as they had only forged a rank seven Martial Arts Tower on advancement; without fate, they would be unable to progress further.

However, even though Shi Ya had forged a rank eight Martial Arts Tower during his advancement, without extraordinary fate and discoveries like the miraculous Spirit Medicine of the Sky Mending Fruit, he too would stop at Stage Eight of the Heavenly Realm.

Although the Gu Yuan Tribe had already cultivated the seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit, Shi Ya had not consumed it; although it would allow his Layered Tower to be complemented up to a ninth-grade level, it would still be a dead end, unable to advance beyond the Ninth Layer of the Heavenly Realm.

He was waiting for the seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit to evolve to nine colors. The nine-colored Sky Mending Fruit had the potential to return the formed to the innate, sufficiently complementing the Layered Tower as if innately forged, and even advancing to the Half-King Realm was not without possibility.

There was even a legend in the Desolate Lands that a warrior who had innately forged an eighth-grade Martial Arts Tower Realm managed to find a nine-colored Sky Mending Fruit by chance, which complemented his deficiencies in the Layered Tower and eventually enabled him to ascend to the King Realm.

Of course, such fate required a long wait, possibly an entire lifetime, for the seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit to advance to a ninth-grade level, requiring an essential transformation. Even Xiao Chen could not guarantee that the seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit cultivated by the tribe could advance to the ninth-grade level.

As for the Stage Eight Realm powerhouses, the Gu Yuan Tribe currently had Mu Qing and Elder Mu.

As for legendary figures, there were Xiao Chen and Lord Qingjiao!

Now, in the Grand Hall, the peak fighting power of the Gu Yuan Tribe had gathered!

Thud, thud, thud!

The numerous warriors initially seated in the hall turned their heads and looked towards the entrance of the Grand Hall.

Xiao Chen appeared, dressed in purple and green battle attire, with a restrained aura and not a trace of energy bursting forth. Behind him were Mu Qing and Nianhua, the two women.

"Greetings to the Tribal Chief!" Suddenly, a booming voice erupted in the Grand Hall.

Xiao Chen gave a slight nod and walked to the throne-like seat at the center of the hall, while Mu Qing and Nianhua sat down one on each side of him.

Gazing across the Grand Hall, with nearly a hundred figures present, Xiao Chen nodded his head. With ample resources, plus the special space-time controlled by Luli, the strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe had increased rapidly.

"Gentlemen, I assume you all understand the purpose of this tribal council." Without delay, Xiao Chen immediately spoke.

At his words, many elders couldn’t help but show joyful expressions.

"If that’s the case, speak up, elders!"

Hearing this, the Grand Elder was the first to stand up and declare, "Tribal Chief, all preparations for the tribal sacrifice, elevation to a legendary tribe, are complete!"

"Reporting to the Tribal Chief, the Gu Yuan Imperial Command has already been delivered to all tribes in the Border Wasteland"

"Reporting to the Tribal Chief, the eight safe passages in the Border Wasteland have been completely cleared, along the route we have identified seventy-three suitable locations for founding a tribe."

"Reporting to the Tribal Chief, the Ancestral Court has already dispatched Elder Ming He to liaise concerning the Gu Yuan Tribe’s take over of the Border Wasteland, all affairs are fully prepared, just waiting for the day of the tribal sacrifice!"

...

Xiao Chen listened attentively to the reports from many elders, making judgments one by one. The days until the tribal sacrifice were not many, and for the Gu Yuan Tribe, this would be the grandest of celebrations, allowing no room for error.

"Lord Qingjiao, during this sacrifice, you will be responsible for the safety of the entire tribe."

"Grand Elder, Third Elder, begin the preparations for the sacrifice!"

...

"Your subordinate obeys!"

This clan meeting had lasted for an entire day, and only when night fell did a loud shouting resound in the Great Hall.

Suddenly, numerous elders left the Great Hall and headed into the tribe.

Several days later.

In the dawn, as the rosy clouds had not yet dissipated, they scattered over the Bronze Ancient City, emitting a rainbow radiance, the ancient city’s walls exuding a cold metallic luster!

Wuu wuu wuu!

The desolate horn sound echoed through the heavens, emanating from the Gu Yuan Tribe, piercing the Sky Vault, and suddenly the entire earth shook.

Boom boom boom!

The city walls of the Bronze Ancient City, a hundred zhangs tall, slowly opened their bronze doors, revealing deep and extensive gateways.

Buzz!

Suddenly, the earth emitted a faint tremor, however, in just a few breaths, this tremor grew a hundred times stronger, even making the surrounding hundred li vibrate noticeably.

Ten li away in the Border Wasteland City, the earth also buzzed. Numerous warriors were startled awake by this sudden tremor, their eyes filled with indelible horror.

"It has begun!"

Almost simultaneously, countless warriors looked toward the direction of the Gu Yuan Tribe.

The earth shook again, this time coming from inside the Border Wasteland City. Some warriors, alerted by the sound, poured out of the ancient city, heading toward the Gu Yuan Tribe.

They wanted to witness the most magnificent era in the history of the Border Wilderness!

Gales swept by, these warriors radiated intense Blood Qi, their momentum robust like tidal waves, connecting like an ocean surging wave after wave toward the Gu Yuan Tribe.

Wuu wuu wuu!

The desolate horn sound still did not cease, charging straight into the heavens, incessant, and in just one hour, the area outside the Bronze Ancient City was densely surrounded by warriors.

These warriors, some were original inhabitants of the Border Wasteland City, some had specifically come for this historic elevation of the Gu Yuan Tribe into legend.

The summoning of the Border Wasteland naturally attracted numerous vagabond warriors, stirring the winds and clouds.

There were seas of people, the several hundred li wilderness that was in front of the Border Wasteland City was now densely packed with warriors from various places of the Entire Border Wilderness Domain, and even some from other regions.

Wuu!

The desolate horn sound became prolonged, no longer as rapid, slowing down, the sound of the horn more profound.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Accompanied by the horn sound, rhythmic footsteps came from within the Bronze Ancient City, like mountains collapsing and tsunamis crashing.

"They’re coming! They’re coming!"

At that sound, the numerous warriors who had gathered around the Gu Yuan Tribe held their breath, their eyes intently looking toward the massive city gate to the east.

In front of the city gate of the Bronze Ancient City, opposite the Border Wasteland City, the air was abuzz, and the surrounding warriors felt that at that moment, the city gate seemed like a giant bloody mouth of an Ancient Ferocious Beast, with an overwhelming pressure rushing towards them.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Loud cries resounded from the city gate, and a troop of Human War Soldiers emerged, their Blood Qi soaring, erupting with an imposing and chilly killing aura.

The War Soldiers emerged from the city gate and quickly formed ranks outside the gate, forming a Ten Thousand War Master!

Each of these War Soldiers possessed a strength not lesser than the perfection of Blood Refining Realm!

The Ten Thousand War Master was divided into ten columns, guarding on both sides of the city gate, each side with five thousand War Masters!

Each thousand War Masters were led by a commander from the Layered Tower Realm.

True killing aura filled the field, Blood Qi like a rainbow!

This scene occurred in front of the four gates of the Bronze Ancient City, astonishing countless warriors!

"Indeed, this is the number one clan of the Border Wilderness, such prowess, this is definitely an elite troop, and I’m not even qualified to be an ordinary soldier among them!"

Gazing at the War Masters of Gu Yuan Tribe, numerous warriors sighed unceasingly, as even the ordinary soldiers possessed the perfection of Blood Refining Realm.

Although some of the warriors still had some way to go to truly open all twelve Heavenly Meridians and form a Circulating Heaven Qi Sea, such a War Master unit was rare across times in the Entire Border Wilderness Domain.

"Indeed, the Supreme Overlord of the Border Wilderness does have deep roots and strength; even I, at the Layered Tower Realm, can only command a thousand War Masters, truly a place with amazingly strong individuals!"

"Quick, look at that command leader of the Ten Thousand War Masters, he likely has a Layered Tower Realm Stage Four level!"

Gazing at the scene before them, continual exclamations of shock spread, each time rendering countless warriors’ minds shockingly trembled.
