I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Chapter 777 314: Campaign Against the Wood Ginger Tribe!

  • Next Chapter

Deep within the Giant Mountain Range, the Alliance's warriors, equipped with grand chapter vehicles, water dividing rulers, mountain measuring rails, nebula discs, and other witch artifacts, began measuring this majestic mountain range.

On towering mountains, sundials and star instruments were set up to observe the variations of starlight between day and night.

Among the many from the Human Race, the Snow Mink Beast King was the most excited, sensing that this greatly aided its understanding of formations.

With the Snow Mink Beast King by their side, the wild beasts of the entire Giant Mountain Range were no longer a threat.

The Alliance warriors and witches organized into dozens of teams, each responsible for measuring a specific area and then bringing back the data from that area.

Next to the Alliance Heroic Spirit Temple, in a side hall, a sand table of five hundred yards long and over thirty yards wide was displayed inside the hall.

The Giant Mountain Range lay like a great dragon, with the dragon's head to the east and the tail to the west, the mountain branches on both sides resembling claws protruding from beneath the dragon's body.

Hmm, a multi-clawed dragon.

The dragon-shaped outline of the entire mountain range was roughly sketched; the next step was to fill in the details, which would take several years to complete.

This Dragon Gate Leaping Plan, led by Shen Can, concerns the safety of the entire Human Race in the Giant Mountain.

Elsewhere, the Alliance was also preparing to commence the conquest of the Wood Ginger Tribe, aiming to cut off the Profound Bird's wing while gathering resources for building the grand array.

For the upcoming actions by the Alliance, Huo Shan had also sent Shen Can an operational plan.

Although Shen Can didn't involve himself much in the Alliance's specific conquests, he still made sure to be somewhat informed, so he could make accurate judgments if any unexpected events occurred.

The Alliance was well-prepared for the conquest of the Wood Ginger Tribe, also guarding against the Guanxiong Tribe.

Furthermore, the restoration of the Cloud River Valley was ongoing, and the pursuit for the 'Holy Emissary Tribe' within the Cloud River Valley had not been abandoned.

The determination that the Cloud River Valley also housed the 'Holy Emissary Tribe' stemmed not only from the fact that the Human Race and the Alien Tribes in the Giant Mountain Range worshipped the Profound Bird.

Another more crucial reason was the massive entry of Desert Patrol Envoys into the Cloud River Valley, investigating lost Human Race tribes.

In the process of exploration, they discovered that even though the former Human Race tribe lands were occupied by wild beasts, they had been looted before the beasts took over.

Wild beasts do eat meat, but they don't consume cultivation techniques, nor do they typically eat grains.

Within the ruins of the large tribes that once existed in Cloud River Valley, the warehouses were emptied, and the cultivation method classics were taken away.

It must have been the 'Holy Emissary Tribe' that visited; otherwise, no matter how rampant the wild beasts were, they couldn't have emptied the warehouses and taken the classics.

If only a few tribe ruins showed this situation, it would be alright, but all the tribe ruins found by the Desert Patrol Envoys showed the same scenario.

Even after being occupied by wild beasts for years, the difference between a violent destruction and an orderly clearing was still discernible.

All these aspects indicated that during the outbreak of a massive plague in the Cloud River Valley, a force had completely looted the ravaged tribes.

Back then, the Blazing Flame Bo Division only acquired resources from a few Bo Divisions like Bi Fang, which already significantly boosted their tribal power.

So one could imagine how much more the force that looted all the great tribe resources and classics from the Cloud River Valley gained.

Apart from the Cloud River Valley, the Xuankong Marsh had turned into a barren land, with almost no living creatures, and it was unclear what it went through.

The Guanxiong Tribe was also enslaving the Human Race; this tribe had a large hole in their chests, requiring someone to pass a rod through the hole for transportation, carried by the Human Race at both ends.

This was similar to how Earth Ants enslaved their Ant Slaves.

As for why the Alliance acted against the Wood Ginger Tribe first and didn't immediately handle the Guanxiong Tribe,

The main reason was that this tribe was too primitive, living in regions swarming with snakes, worms, rats, and ants. The current reports from the Desert Patrol Envoys' exploration of the Guanxiong Tribe were limited, revealing only a few Human Race tribes on the outskirts.

Now, the entire north and south of the Giant Mountain Range were home primarily to three major Alien Race groups: the Huantou Tribe, the Wood Ginger Tribe, and the Guanxiong Tribe.

In other deserted areas, there may be scattered living of the Human Race or small Alien Tribes, but the Alliance currently lacked the resources to launch a large-scale search.

Fortunately, the Alien and Human Races in the north and south of the Giant Mountain Range had been extremely isolated for thousands of years, with no external forces interfering.

As for the Huantou Tribe, this race retreated into the deep waters, making large-scale conquest risky.

Currently, the Yongzhou South Border Camp has become the initial practical training ground for newly enlisted war soldiers.

War soldiers recruited from various places are temporarily sent to the Southern Border Marsh to engage with the Huantou Tribe for a few years of training.

Additionally, young warriors from various tribes also particularly loved venturing into the south, using the Huantou Tribe as a grindstone for their own training.

Now, the Huantou Tribe has become the training ground for the Alliance's 'new recruits'.

Given the significant role played by the Huantou Tribe, the Alliance temporarily shifted its focus to the Wood Ginger Tribe.

Shen Can was engrossed as he examined the returned information on the Wood Ginger Tribe.

The Sacrificial Spirit Tree took the Human Race as sacrifices. In any Human Race tribe that frequently used wild beasts as sacrifices, the Sacrificial Spirit Tree would wither.

Once the Sacrificial Spirit Tree in a tribe withered, the tribe would face attacks from nearby other tribes.

Medicine People were selected from the strongest newborns in the tribe, and from an early age, fed with witch medicine.

Only those with the purest internal aura could trigger the Sacrificial Spirit Tree's response and then be led to the Sacred Land for cultivation.

"It seems that all the Sacrificial Spirit Trees in Human Race tribes are of the same kind and resemble the Giant Wood Spirit Tree in the Wood Ginger Tribe's clan land."

"It's unclear why only the Human Race is used as sacrifices."
