Chapter 766 - 309: 10 Years!_2

"This time, the Alliance Heroic Spirit Temple will bestow nine Pioneer Orders."

As Huo Shan spoke, many clan leaders inside the hall murmured in their hearts, why were they being bestowed by the Heroic Spirit Temple?

However, some clan leaders didn’t think much of it, considering that the previous decree to visit the clan land of the Holy Envoy Race and understand the Profound Bird also came from the Ancestral Temple Keeper of the Blazing Flame Ancestral Temple.

As the most powerful Great Witch of Yongyi and Dai Land, it was normal to serve as the Ancestral Temple Keeper at the Alliance Heroic Spirit Temple.

Huo Shan didn’t explain why the orders were bestowed by the Heroic Spirit Temple, but once the Pioneer Orders were brought back, they would all naturally understand.

"Each Pioneer Order contains an array which can manifest a protective area with a radius of five li upon activation."

"The array in the Bo Division’s Pioneer Order reaches the tier of Tier Four High-Grade."

As Huo Shan finished speaking, the hall erupted into chatter.

Many clan leaders who had only intended to observe were now stunned, wondering why they hadn’t been informed earlier about the protective measures associated with the Pioneer Orders.

Many people were now considering the opportunity to vie for them.

A radius of five li is sufficient to protect the Ancestral Temple, the clan treasury, and core members.

Everyone present understood that such a large array would consume significant resources.

"The array within the Top-grade Pioneer Order is at Tier Four Middle Grade."

Huo Shan’s voice continued, further detailing the tier of the arrays in the Top-grade Pioneer Orders.

Just then, a grand map of the northwestern Dai territory opened within the hall.

In this map, the northwestern and western vast regions of Dai territory were divided into nine distinct areas, precisely where the Dai Land Human Race once lived, before being destroyed by Earth Ant.

The outermost of these areas from north to south were five regions belonging to the Bo Division.

Behind the five Bo Divisions were four Top-grade Tribe regions.

Bo Division lands could pioneer a wild area spanning thirty thousand li, while the Top-grade Tribe lands could cover ten thousand li.

Huo Shan pointed at the map and looked at several Dai Land Earth Martial Artists eager to establish a Bo Division.

"Lord Jiang, you choose first."

After examining the Mountain and River Map, Jiang Shu quickly decided on a prominent region on the map’s edge to rebuild the Bo Division.

Subsequently, Yuezai, Fugu, and Zhenyue, three leaders of the Inheritance Land, stood up to mark their desired locations on the map.

After the four from Dai Land had chosen, Huo Shan looked toward the other clan leaders in the hall.

"To the north of Dai Land is another Bo Division land. Who is willing to migrate with their entire clan to the Dai Land to pioneer new territory for the Human Race?"

As Huo Shan spoke, many clan leaders in the hall didn’t immediately respond, hesitating as they glanced at one another.

Huo Shan paid no mind and continued, "In the east of the Bo Division land, there are four areas available for Top-grade Tribe lands. Who is willing to migrate to Dai Land?"

"Yanglin..."

"Cang Hex..."

"Xunyu..."

With Huo Shan’s words, three figures stood up briskly in the hall.

Cang Lin glanced at Lin Zhong, whose palms were already sweaty.

Lin Zhong hesitated, wondering if he had grown old.

Then, both of them looked toward another person.

The Tribe Leader of the Xunyu Tribe.

Compared to the Cang Bird and Yanglin tribes, which were vassal tribes of the Blazing Flame Bo Division, the Xunyu Tribe hails from the Yu Region, originally a Top-grade Tribe under the Bi Fang Bo Division.

"To report to the Alliance Leader, the Changyuan Bo Division is willing to relocate the entire tribe to Dai Land for the Alliance’s pioneering efforts."

While everyone turned their attention to the three Top-grade Tribe leaders, Lord Changyuan rose to speak.

Lord Changyuan had a head of white hair, with his tribe once falling within the sphere of influence of the Original Ao Mountain Bo Division.

It was clear that reaching Divine Treasure status was already extraordinary for him, not to mention raising a second Divine Treasure, making it nearly impossible for his tribe to become a legacy Bo Division.

With Lord Changyuan’s rise to speak, eight of the nine Pioneer Orders were taken, leaving only one Top-grade Pioneer Order.

Everyone marked their tribe’s migration locations on the Mountain and River Map.

Not long after, Hill Snake, a Top-grade Tribe from Ji Land, also spoke up and seized the last remaining Top-grade Pioneer Order.

The remaining clan leaders in the hall felt somewhat at a loss, though it wasn’t due to a lack of interest. Moving an entire tribe warranted careful consideration.

Some showed no particular reaction, cognizant of the difficulties in pioneering; they’d wait to see how the first batch of tribes fared, before vying for the next round of Pioneer Orders if it proved successful.

Some Lords, as Alliance Elders, were aware of Cloud River Valley in the northeast of Giant Mountain, where Human Race members who had suffered a great calamity resided, offering numerous potential clan development locations for migration.

Waiting is wise.

...

"The candidates for the nine Pioneer Orders have been finalized. The nine clan leaders may accompany me to the Heroic Spirit Temple to collect the Pioneer Orders."

Huo Shan rolled up the map and, without minding everyone’s thoughts, got up and headed outside the hall.

Opportunities appear in a flash; if not seized, they’re gone, leaving no time for second thoughts.

"Those clan leaders who aren’t otherwise occupied may also come and see."

Many clan leaders filtered out of the hall, heading towards the Heroic Spirit Temple.

Perched high, the Heroic Spirit Temple required a climb up a staircase of white jade from the Alliance Hall.

The nine clan leaders who secured the Pioneer Orders followed closely behind Huo Shan, arriving at the square outside the main hall of the Heroic Spirit Temple.

Ding ding!

Glorious rays illuminated the interior of the Heroic Spirit Temple as a decree surged from within, slowly unfolding in the air.

"Today, with all Alliance heroic spirits as witness, the Alliance decrees the Bo Division Pioneer Orders to Jiang Yang, Yuezai, Zhenyue, Fugu, and Changyuan.

Holding this order, the surrounding area of thirty thousand li of mountains, rivers, and lakes is secured as tribal lands under the protection of the Human Race Alliance."

"Today, with all Alliance heroic spirits as witness, the Alliance decrees the Top-grade Pioneer Orders to Yanglin, Cang Bird,..."

"..."

...

The golden decree shone brightly, towering over the Heroic Spirit Temple, enveloping the entire main hall of the temple in its golden glow.
