"That was not the fourth heaven of the Layered Tower Realm, but the fifth heaven of the Layered Tower Realm," someone announced.

Amid the exclamations of countless warriors, a distinct voice rose above the rest, causing a sudden halt in the crowd’s shouting.

Indeed, it was the Lord of the Border Wasteland, whose tribal strength made them look up in reverence!

Warriors of the fourth heaven of the Layered Tower Realm were enough to support a superior battle division, while those of the fifth heaven could bring such a division to its peak; yet, in their eyes, a fifth heaven warrior of the Layered Tower Realm was merely a War Master.

Though the Gu Yuan Tribe now had vast numbers of Towering Realm warriors, and even the Entire Border Wilderness Domain had no small number, totaling thousands.

However, it must be bluntly said, throughout the Border Wastelands and even across the entire Human Realm, every warrior who reached the Towering Realm was at least an intermediate level Martial Arts practitioners.

Speaking for the Border Wasteland, among millions of human tribes, there were only about ten thousand in the Towering realm, and achieving such a state was truly one in ten thousand.

With these numbers, those who could advance to the Towering Realm were exceedingly few; it was only because of the Gu Yuan Tribe’s ancestral ritual and the gathering of many strong ones that the number of Towering realm stalwarts appeared large.

At that moment, at the entrance facing the Border Wasteland City, a bustling crowd parted, creating pathways where warriors of well-known aura made their appearances.

These warriors were segmented into groups large and small, but the three people leading the groups were well recognized by the many warriors of the Border Wastelands.

Bai Ze, Crystal Stone, Sky Lake.

Now, the three high-grade war divisions of the Border Wilderness Domain; at this moment, the tribal leaders like Venerable Bai Ze and others walked out of the crowd, followed by a host of elders from their tribes.

The three high-grade war division leaders exchanged glances and all saw helplessness in each other’s eyes. Usually, they would traverse through the skies, but today, at the Gu Yuan Tribe, even though they were ten li outside the ancient city, they still had to descend to the earth and walk the distance.

Outside the Bronze Ancient City, within hundreds of miles, no one dared to travel through the skies!

They had even arrived at the Gu Yuan Tribe two days early just to wait for this very moment.

Today, the Gu Yuan Tribe would become the supreme overlord of the entire Border Wilderness, and even if they harbored different thoughts, they had to set them aside. Offending the majesty of the Border Wasteland Lord could mean more than just their own personal issues.

The Gu Yuan Tribe could even knock their respective tribes down to the mortal realm, and even as high-ranking tribal leaders and powerful venerables, they wouldn’t have the slightest ability to resist!

Following the three high-grade Marquis Divisions were the superior Profound Clear War Tribe and the superior Zilun Combat Division; now, only these two superior war divisions in the Border Wilderness Domain retained a complete inheritance.

Following the two superior war divisions were now the medium-grade war divisions of the Border Wilderness Domain.

Beyond these, there were also leaders of ranger gatherings, powerful individual rangers such as the Lord of Thorn Castle, and strong rangers like Jian Feng Venerable and Feng Ying Venerable.

At this moment, all these individuals stood before the Bronze Ancient City.

Woo woo woo!

The desolate horn became more urgent, sounding nine consecutive times, piercing through the Vault of Heaven.

"Bai Ze of Border Wasteland, has come to pay homage to the Lord of the Border Wasteland, Gu Yuan Marquis Division," Bai Ze Clan Leader proclaimed with cupped fists towards the direction of the Bronze Ancient City.

"Granted!"

In front of the Bronze Ancient City, ten thousand War Masters instantly roared towards the sky, and a fierce blood qi surged, bursting forth with an imposing and chilling aura.

Then the leader of the Bai Ze Marquis Division, along with two elders trailing behind him, proceeded towards the Bronze Ancient City.

"Border Wasteland Sky Platform, has come to pay homage to the Lord of the Border Wasteland, Gu Yuan Marquis Division."

"Border Wasteland Crystal Stone, has come to pay homage to the Lord of the Border Wasteland, Gu Yuan Marquis Division."

"Border Wasteland Sky Lake, has come to pay homage to the Lord of the Border Wasteland, Gu Yuan Marquis Division."

...

"Border Wasteland Profound Clear, has come to pay homage to the Lord of the Border Wasteland, Gu Yuan Marquis Division."

...

"Granted! Granted! Granted!"

The continuous shouts erupted, ten thousand war masters bellowed in unison. It was merely before one city gate, but in the next moment, at the four city gates, all the war masters roared towards the sky; the soaring momentum pierced into the sky vault, sweeping across a hundred miles!

One after another, the tribes of the Border Wilderness Domain, having completed their homage outside the ancient city, were granted permission by the War Masters before they could enter the Gu Yuan Tribe.

Up until this day, they needed to look up to Gu Yuan, fully prostrating themselves at the feet of the Gu Yuan Tribe!

"Border Wasteland ranger Jian Feng, hearing of Gu Yuan Marquis Division’s promotion to legend and imperial command to oversee the Border Wasteland and distribute fiefs among various tribes, has come especially on this grand sacrificial day to seek fiefdom from the Lord, to gather tribal folk, and establish a lineage," Venerable Jian Feng proclaimed.

Once the tribal leaders from medium-grade divisions and above had entered the Bronze Ancient City, the voice of Venerable Jian Feng filled the air.

"Approved!"

As the roars of the Ten Thousand War Master fell, Jian Feng Venerable again bowed respectfully and then stepped into the ancient city.

Following that, ranger warriors knelt respectfully at the city gate, all wishing to receive divine objects from Gu Yuan Tribe for establishing their clans!

"From Thorn Castle and Boundless Mountain, hearing the decree of the Lord of the Border Wasteland, we specially come to pay homage, hoping to receive the Lord’s grace and divine objects, to gather fortune and establish our territory!"

Soon, these ranger warriors and leaders of ranger forces were permitted to enter Gu Yuan Tribe.

"Yu Xue Marquis Department from Snow Peaks Realm, congratulates Gu Yuan Tribe on being elevated to Legendary Marquis Department."

"Qinghui Marquis Department from Ten Thousand Spirits Domain, congratulates Gu Yuan Tribe on being elevated to Legendary Marquis Department"

"Cang Mountain Marquis Department from Ten Thousand Mountains Domain, congratulates Gu Yuan Tribe on being elevated to Legendary Marquis Department"

...

The elevation of Gu Yuan Tribe to legendary status, dominating the Border Wasteland, has indeed caused a tremendous stir in the surrounding domains, influencing the nearby human race territories profoundly, naturally deserving attendance only by those qualified as Marquis Battle Divisions!

"Qinghui Marquis Department from the Central South Domain, congratulations to Gu Yuan Tribe on receiving the title, elevated to Legendary Marquis Department!"

At this moment, from behind the dense crowd, a voice pierced through the mixed noises, directly reaching every warrior’s ear.

What!

The presence of marquis departments from surrounding domains to observe the ceremony had already thrilled the warriors gathered around the Bronze Ancient City, for this was an unprecedented prosperous age in the Border Wasteland.

The Border Wasteland had been silent for too long, so long that other domains scarcely paid attention.

But now they heard that a Legendary Marquis Department had come all the way from the distant Central South Domain to attend the ceremony!

Legendary Qinghui Marquis Department!

In the crowded crowd, a passage was cleared, and the figure of an elder emerged from behind, the elder being Qingyu, the master of the Bronze Tower.

Just outside Bronze Ancient City, countless warriors, shocked beyond measure, witnessed all the people in Gu Yuan Tribe donning splendid battle garments or armor today.

Outside the Stone Garden where the Border Wasteland Divine Cauldron was placed, stood a massive sacrificial altar!

The altar was divided into five levels, each nine zhang high, but covered an area of one li!

At this point, around the altar, stood four enormous bronze cauldrons, with wild flames burning within. Warriors of Gu Yuan Tribe continuously poured incense pills made of spices and precious monster blood into them.

As these incense pills made with spices and monster blood fell into the cauldrons, visible purple-green smoke erupted from the fiery flames, morphing into clouds of auspicious purple-green mist, enveloping the entire altar!

Xiao Chen, alone in his purple and green battle garment, a pale purple-gold cape draped over his shoulders, embroidered with mountains, rivers, ancient forests, and adorned with the sun, moon, and stars above.

Upon closer inspection, one would notice that the cape’s embroidery depicted the geographical appearance of the entire Border Wilderness Domain. This cape was meticulously embroidered over a month by Mu Qing and other women of the tribe.

Below the altar, a hundred War Soldiers surrounded it; each warrior possessed the prowess of the Towering Realm, now clad in green armor and wielding long spears, displaying extraordinary might.

Moreover, not far below the altar stood two people, Venerable Minghe, the Grand Elder of Ancestral Court, and Elder Shi.

Both had earlier come to negotiate affairs with Gu Yuan Tribe, but they had not left since the upcoming sacrificial rituals were too intricate and complex, at least ten times more so compared to previous tribal ceremonies of Gu Yuan Tribe.

Similarly, it had been ten thousand years since the last Legendary Tribe emerged in the Border Wilderness, let alone being conferred by the East Emperor to govern a region, which warranted such a grand and complex ritual.

Even Venerable Minghe and his colleague had to consult ancient scripts in Ancestral Court for a long time and brought those scripts to Gu Yuan Tribe to discuss with the elders extensively to manage today’s grand ceremonial rite!

In front of the altar, the many tribes and rangers that came to participate in the grand ceremonial rite of Gu Yuan Tribe had already found their designated positions, led by the warriors of the tribe.

"The time is almost right for the Clan Stele to be called," came the voice of the Grand Elder soon after.

In front of the Ancestral Court’s perpetual flame, stood the Clan Stele, cast entirely of Nine Suns Divine Bronze, which marked the records of various clans, with Gu Yuan Tribe’s name embossed upon it.

However, on the Clan Stele now, the name of Gu Yuan Tribe was ranked first, its prestige overshadowing the sum of all other marked clans.

Boom, boom, boom!

Just then, the earth roared again, and Bronze Ancient City shook, startling countless people, especially those warriors near the altar what had come to watch.

Because the twenty li radius around the altar suddenly rose from the ground, while the walls of Bronze Ancient City on all four sides fell, reducing what was initially three hundred zhang high walls to less than ten zhang in just moments, raising the land around the altar by a hundred zhang.

Thus, the densely packed warriors outside Bronze Ancient City were able to see the entire scene of the altar. Although they could not enter Gu Yuan Tribe, they still had the opportunity to witness the grandest ceremony in the history of the Border Wasteland!

"By Imperial Command," Xiao Chen’s voice echoed through the sky, "Gu Yuan governs a region, and all parts of the Border Wasteland are conferred and promoted under Gu Yuan’s command, today marking the beginning of the tribe’s elevation. We hereby respectfully invite the Border Wasteland’s Legacy Clan Stele into our Gu Yuan!"

Accompanied by Xiao Chen’s resonant cry, thunder roared across the Vault of Heaven once again!
