I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself Chapter 108 61: Great Sacrifice of the Whole Tribe, Manifest

"Go outside and clean it up before bringing it in. Do you want the ancestors to eat a mouthful of hair?"

Huo Yuan called out, leading a group of people rushing out of the ancestral temple. By the ti they returned, everything was cleaned up, and they carefully and solemnly placed the offerings on the altar.

After the children left, Shen Can, seeing Huo Chang's eager expression, said, "Then let Uncle Huo Shan hunt a few more wild beasts, and prepare plenty of other ga as well."

"Okay, I'll go prepare right away."

Huo Chang ca and went in haste.

The entire tribe, except those on patrol and stationed outside, began to busy themselves following Huo Chang's instructions.

Even the subjects there started making preparations.

Offerings ranging from basic wheat, rice, and wild fruits to witch dicine and cured at would be contributed by each household.

The celestial vein martial artists in the tribe also began to move, with scouts spread over a hundred miles around to prevent rogues like Bai Lang and Luoxue from causing trouble again.

Every day, Huo Shan returned with a few big fish in the ironwood ship, which were raised in the fish ponds dug out within the tribe.

Through the consumption of offerings these days, Shen Can thought that the residual spirit of the ancestors might be starved, otherwise, they wouldn't devour the offerings so voraciously.

If that's the case, if quality can't be enhanced, then amplify in quantity.

Have a full al.

For a ti, the entire tribe was preparing for this great sacrifice.

Only Shen Can, after cleaning the ancestral tablets and the nine cauldrons and eight sacrificial vessels, squatted at the highest point of the clan mountain, inhaling and exhaling water elent source power.

He had found from the classics obtained from Xiaoyang that the vein ford by the small blood river was the prototype of the 'spirit vein.'

Of course, in the great wilderness, it's not called a spirit vein, but a primordial vein or source vein, essentially aning the sa thing.

In the Bo Tribe Territory, there must be a primordial vein.

The primordial vein gathers heaven and earth source power and consequently alters the environnt of the clan land, allowing it to grow witch dicine with longer dicinal life and spirit rice of better quality.

Previously, in the old clan land, the maturation period of wheat planted within ten miles varied by several months, all related to source power.

Of course, this doesn't an there was a primordial vein in the old clan land, but it indicates that even without a primordial vein, the source power contained in the soil of the sa area has relatively strong and weak distinctions.

If, on the foundation of a primordial vein, a wizard proficient in cultivating spirit plants is added, it becos nearly possible to ignore the changes in weather for the cultivation of herbs and grains.

Flood and drought can easily destroy small tribes, while the upper and Bo Divisions have strong resilience to risks, allowing them to pass down through generations for a longer ti.

It can be said that having this spirit vein prototype gives the Blazing Fla Tribe a foundation similar to the Upper and Bo Divisions.

Similarly, the primordial vein can also be destroyed, for instance, by pollution, the simplest example being the spirit rice fields of the Upper Lake Division.

The small paddy field where the Upper Lake Division can grow spirit rice is equivalent to a miniature primordial vein.

The soil from that paddy has been dug back by the Blazing Fla, yet no improvent has been made, and Shen Can has handed it over to his disciple Huo Yunn to work on it.

Huo Yunn ca up with a reverse approach, not removing the filth inside and trying to grow poison instead—would that work?

For a disciple with ideas, Shen Can has always been supportive.

Even poison has its place; he doesn't mind.

The paddy field's transformation into a dicinal field has already been planted with witch dicines used to prepare Mafei Powder.

Just as Shen Can anticipated.

Over these days, the grass and trees on the clan mountain have grown lush, as if they sprung out of the earth all at once.

Looking out, the clan mountain is full of vibrant greenery.

It wasn't that green before, but now, this green is filled with more vigorous liveliness.

Upon seeing this, without Shen Can needing to instruct, Huo Yunn was busy searching for areas rich with vitality across the mountain to cultivate herbs.

Additionally, many martial artists within the tribe and among the subjects have noticed an evident faster increase in Qi strength.

Though it's not enough to break through realms imdiately, it significantly speeds up the ti consud to advance.

...

Nearly a month of bustling activity.

Finally, all kinds of offerings were prepared.

The day before the great sacrifice.

Outside the ancestral temple.

Huo Chang, examining the offerings, asked, "Acan, is it enough?"

Shen Can looked at the seventeen mounds of rice, a desolate beast flesh mountain, a fish mountain, and a fruit mountain piled outside the ancestral temple.

Extending from the ancestral temple all the way to the foot of the clan mountain.

"It's enough, year after year of sacrifices, it's not just this one al."

"Alright then."

Huo Chang nodded, "I'll go check on the three water beasts and arrange people to get ready."

"Co to eat."

Grandpa Huo Xian walked out from the ancestral temple, calling Shen Can and a dozen other figures.

"Thank you, Grandpa Huo Xian."

Huo Yuan spoke up, and the other children of his age chid in.

There were twelve of them in total, and starting tomorrow, they would be the temple guards of the ancestral temple.

Shen Can did not select from the martial artists but directly chose this group of young boys to train from scratch.

"Ancestral Temple Keeper, you eat."

The older Huo Yuan refrained from calling him Brother Can today.

"Eat your fill. Tomorrow will be tiring."

Huo Xian served food to everyone, "Eat well and check your horns; tomorrow, blow them as loud as you can."

...

Woo woo woo!

Just as dawn broke.

Outside the ancestral temple, twelve teenagers puffed out their cheeks and blew into the horns vigorously.

The sound echoed throughout the clan land, reaching even the subject territories outside the tribe.

The tribe mbers had long woken up, with even the babies dressed in their robes. As the horn sounded, they erged from their hos one by one.

In the direction of the subject territories, tens of thousands ford a long line toward the clan land, following behind the Blazing Fla Clan People, ascending step by step toward the ancestral temple.

Many held baskets, hampers, jars, and pots, and as the tribe mbers reached outside the ancestral temple, they passed these storage containers back and forth, delivering them to the ancestral temple's entrance.
