Chapter 774 313: The Centennial Dragon Gate Leaping Plan!

The words of Shen Can at the Heroic Spirit Temple, through the communication witch artifacts crafted by the Alliance, quickly spread through multiple layers to the Northern Border of Dai Land and the Southern Border of Yongyi.

On the vast lands surrounding the Giant Mountain Range, from the cities standing tall in Dai Land to the large and small tribes of Yongyi.

Over the ten years since the Alliance was established, the news about the Profound Bird had already spread to every tribe.

At this moment, the decree from the Ancestral Temple Keeper at the Alliance Heroic Spirit Temple transported a portion of the Divine Treasure Martial Artists back to memories from more than ten years ago in the Holy Envoy Race's clan land.

Meanwhile, the Tribe Alliance Leader ordered to better integrate the lands of the Human Race north and south of the Giant Mountain Range by renaming Yongyi, Dai Land, and Cloud River Valley to Yongzhou, Dai State, and Yunzhou.

Thereafter, except for those who needed to garrison key areas and had responsibilities that could not be shirked, the Divine Treasure Martial Artists from the three states began heading towards the Alliance Main City.

Warships and Flying Birds traversed through the mountains and fields, eventually gathering together.

…

At sunrise.

The Witch Priests lined up on either side outside the Heroic Spirit Temple blew the horn.

The Heroic Spirit Temple was still under the radiance of golden light, and the square below the White Jade Platform was already filled with figures.

Huo Shan stood at the front, followed by Hall Masters and Directors of various Alliance Palace Departments, and then the garrison soldiers, city lords, and warders from various places, all with solemn expressions.

"Offer!"

The Witch Priest in a heavy sacrificial robe sang loudly.

Huo Shan led the crowd up the steps of the White Jade Platform, step by step to the outside of the Heroic Spirit Temple.

A gigantic python transformed into a sacrificial offering, its head as large as a mountain was placed on the offering table.

The massive body was divided into many parts and sent into side halls on both sides, offered on the Divine Platforms of those who had fallen in battle.

"Sacrifice!"

Excluding the Divine Treasure Martial Artists from various parts of the Alliance who couldn't attend, those participating in this temporarily held Great Sacrifice reached six thousand people.

More than ten years ago, the Divine Treasure Martial Artists of Yongyi numbered just over two thousand.

Over ten years later, these six thousand included Divine Treasures from Dai State, Yunzhou, and Yongzhou, though perhaps the proportion from Dai State and Yunzhou was not large.

Yet, it represented the expansion of the Human Race Alliance and the rapid development of its overall strength.

The convergence of six thousand Divine Treasures here formed a mighty force, concentrating the fortunes of the Human Race on both sides of the Giant Mountain Range nearly in one place.

Among those present, regardless of which tribe or place they came from, in this Heroic Spirit Temple, they were all of the same clan.

After the crowd finished their worship, Shen Can emerged from the main hall of the Heroic Spirit Temple.

"Who here hasn't seen the Profound Bird Divine Statue?"

His voice thundered, and with the golden glow of the rising sun, Shen Can seemed to truly transform into the guide of the Human Race.

There was a Profound Bird Divine Statue in the Holy Envoy Race's clan land, and likewise in Dabei City of Dai State.

Thus, heavy troops were stationed in Dabei City.

Over the past ten years, the Alliance intentionally guided various tribes' Divine Treasure Martial Artists and some young people to view the Profound Bird Divine Statue.

To make everyone understand that while the Alliance appeared strong, in reality, it was like a castle in the air; without striving for progress, once the Profound Bird awakened, the Human Race faced the danger of extinction.

"Report to the Ancestral Temple Keeper, I've seen it!"

"Seen it!"

The powerful and decisive voices echoed outside the Heroic Spirit Temple.

The reason Shen Can gathered Divine Treasures from various tribes before the Heroic Spirit Temple wasn't a question of inconvenience.

Certain things need ceremony, just like annual sacrifices, where martial artists from various tribes would travel thousands of miles back home for the same reason.

The Alliance had not been established long, and some things required ceremony to leave a lasting impression etched in the mind.

"The Profound Bird is powerful, viewing our Human Race like ants, can mere mortals defy the holy?"

"Eight thousand years ago, Marquis Yongshan gave the answer."

"If it was truly invincible, it would not have been gravely wounded by Marquis Yongshan and not have appeared for the past eight thousand years."

"What Marquis Yongshan didn't finish eight thousand years ago, today our Human Race Alliance will continue with the power of the Human Race from Yong, Dai, and Yun three states!"

"From today, all tribes, cities under my Alliance, according to the size of the tribe, the populace, will draft a corresponding proportion of clansmen, to prepare for establishing the Grand Array at my command."

"This task concerns the life and death of the Human Race at the Giant Mountain Range."

"Building the Grand Array is akin to a battle with the Tier Seven Profound Bird, adhere to wartime military orders."

"Wherever the decrees of the Heroic Spirit Temple reach, no tribe, city, or ranger gathering place shall obstruct."

"From today, anyone who disobeys orders, kill!"

"Any tribe that pays lip service but acts otherwise, exterminate the clan!"

Shen Can's words carried a chilling murderous intent, his gaze like lightning sweeping over those present.

"Before the spirits who fell for the Human Race over the past ten years, the ancestors who, eight thousand years ago, left to repel the Profound Bird never to return, and the forebears who, over thousands of years, relocated to the banks of the Giant Mountain, struggling every step of the way, shall we from this day declare war on the Tier Seven Profound Bird, do you dare?"

"What is there to fear!"

Outside the Heroic Spirit Temple, the heroes responded in unison.

The Human Race has a tendency to follow, and with a leader, it can easily transform into a mighty force.

At this moment, the enthusiasm of the people outside the Heroic Spirit Temple reached a peak, the sound of war drums echoed, and a great flag suddenly unfurled into the sky, fluttering with a fierce sound.

This was the Kui Ox Drum and Tier Five Battle Banner moved by war intent.

In this unaware moment of collective consciousness, they experienced yet another spiritual awakening, making his previous words worthwhile.

A sacrifice facing the rising sun ended, and the gathered Divine Treasure Martial Artists returned to the Alliance Hall.

Taking advantage of the presence of most tribe leaders, city lords, and others, the Alliance began to count capable young warriors and talented youths able to be mobilized from various places.

The all-encompassing Grand Array needed the collaboration of the Human Race from the lands of Yong, Dai, and Yun three states.
