I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself Chapter 69 - 40: Two Years of Development, 100 Desolate Powe

Inside the cave.

As Shen Can raised his hand, the sound of flowing water echoed, and mist transford into a river that fell at his feet, sweeping up the Jifu from the pool and surging out of the cave together.

With a raise of his hand, the waters roared, and the long river migrated, leaving Cang Hex and another stunned.

"Gentlen."

Huo Shan greeted the astonished clan leaders.

"The Young Master appreciates your dedication to his affairs."

Saying this, he pulled out a stack of beast hides about the size of a palm from his embrace.

The beast hides were intricately carved, with shimring patterns on the surface, instantly captivating Cang Hex and the other’s attention.

"Witch Talisman?"

Both tribes possessed such items, but with rely insignificant effects.

"The Young Master knows your tribe’s struggle with Witch Cultivation; this is the Witch Testing Talisman."

"With it, you can asure who in your tribe has the natural aptitude for Witch Cultivation, sothing you seem to need."

"This talisman requires special Divine Beast Blood as a catalyst and can only be drawn by a Tier Three Wizard."

As Huo Shan spoke, Cang Hex and Ape Peak’s breaths beca rapid, trembling as they received the Witch Testing Talisman.

Holding the talismans, Cang Hex understood why Huo Shan presented them rather than Young Master Fu; it seed perfectly normal.

The Bo Division Young Master eting them already was gracious enough.

They accepted what was given without the cold deanor.

anwhile, they noticed Huo Chang standing aside without a talisman.

It was clear enough; having known the Bo Division Young Master earlier and being appointed to place slaves, benefits were already secured.

"The Witch Testing Talisman is ti-sensitive; once you return, use it imdiately, or its effect will greatly diminish."

"Thank you for the reminder, sir."

Cang Hex expressed gratitude, thinking that as Huo Shan bestowed gifts on behalf of Young Master Fu, next ti it’s wise to bring so native specialties for Huo Shan.

"Quickly then, the Young Master’s affairs mustn’t be delayed; if you act with sincerity, witchcraft and Cultivation Techniques await."

With the talismans asuring aptitude for Witch Cultivation, once Witchcraft Cultivation thods were obtained systematically from Lingyu Bo Division—.

Cang Hex and Ape Peak couldn’t help but fantasize.

The ancestral desires, spanning generations, saw hope in their era.

They knew the Lingyu Tribe wouldn’t provide Lingyu Witchcraft nor did they yearn for Abyssal rgill Technique; the young divisional wizards from the Upper Division surely possessed alternative Witchcraft Techniques.

Even what the Young Master disregards will suffice for their tribe’s inheritance.

...

Half a day later.

In a valley outside the cave.

Cang Hex and Ape Peak handed over the delivered slaves to Huo Chang.

"Clan Leader Huo truly has good fortune," remarked Ape Peak.

"Indeed, the ancestors are watching over us," Huo Chang did not refute, showing no reaction to the envy in Ape Peak’s tone.

"I’ll organize the slaves now; gentlen, we’ll et again next ti."

Watching Huo Chang leading his clan soldiers, escorting the slaves away.

Cang Hex and Ape Peak exchanged glances.

"Old bird, is this your initial visit strategy?"

"Mutual exchange, really."

Cang Hex chuckled, "When did Ape Peak start launching surprise attacks? Must be your wife whispering strategies to you."

"Exactly."

Ape Peak acknowledged, "Fortunate to listen and strike first, or else today you’d flaunt victory while I’d face sha."

Recalling this, Ape Peak angrily spoke, "Zhushui, trickery from your earlier words!"

"I’ll go back and have the tribe build a dam upstream of Zhushui, cutting off your water!"

Saying this, Ape Peak rallied his tribe mbers.

"Let’s return to the tribe."

Eagerly looking forward to using the Witch Testing Talisman within the tribe.

Cang Hex stood on a rock, sowhat bewildered; wrongfully, it should have been Ape-Frog flaunting today, yet he was chastised instead.

"Let’s go too!"

...

Blazing Fla Division, Ancestral Temple.

Downing a bowl of peach wine, its sweetness lingered.

After two bowls, Shen Can lost interest.

The bird eggs inspected, unable to hatch, yet containing potent energy.

These inclusions indicate both divisions wished desperately to join the ’division’.

The given Witch Testing Talisman was an improved version of the Witch Rune Beast Hide Scroll previously used to select Huo Chong.

It works.

The outco depends on the luck of these two tribes.

He truly gives them things, as they don’t have a systematic witchcraft inheritance anyway.

In short, both tribes can develop, but they’ll only end up trailing behind Blazing Fla, and with ti, they won’t even see Blazing Fla’s shadow.

With the settlent of four thousand people, Huo Chang has a lot to keep him busy.

Shen Can, on the other hand, finds himself with so free ti.

After thinking for a bit, he carried the wine jar and headed towards the cave where the Little Dragon Fish resided.

The benefits from taking down the Lingyu Tribe are substantial; every step forward may yield great benefits, but there’s also the risk of encountering great dangers.

Therefore, he can’t stop his martial arts cultivation from now on.

Once these four thousand people settle down, together with one thousand forr Upper Huang mbers outside the clan division, Blazing Fla will have five thousand people.

In the future, except for so herbs and high-quality grains, the tribe won’t have to focus on ordinary grain planting anymore.

Moreover, this is just the beginning; the two tribes from Ape Mountain will continuously send slaves, and Shen Can feels that with only thirty to fifty thousand mbers, the Blazing Fla Division can beco a pure cultivation tribe.

"Blub!"

In the cave, the Dragon Beard Carp sensed Shen Can’s arrival and surfaced from the depths of the pool, its nose sniffing, eyes instantly glued to the wine jar.

"Want a drink?"

Shen Can opened the wine jar.

This is Tier Two wine and can be used as a cultivation resource.

The Dragon Beard Carp nodded, opening its mouth and blowing bubbles.

"How about catching a few water dwelling wild beasts for ? I’m not picky; Tier Two or Tier Three will do."

This little fish could lead Tier Three monster fish from the deep water to seek help, suggesting it’s quite capable.

The Dragon Beard Carp tilted its head, deciding it was feasible.

The Ironwood Ship has already been repaired, and with Huo Shan and the clan mbers on guard, they can enter the Great Marsh for hunting.

The question is to find the Flood Dragon’s tracks in the Great Marsh.

By the water’s edge, man and fish drank wine and ate stead bird eggs and sparrow at.

"Deal."

"Blub."

Shen Can extended his hand to shake the fish’s fin, reaching a friendly agreent with the Dragon Beard Carp.

Three days later at dawn, the Ironwood Ship sailed out of the cave, entering the Great Marsh through the pre-dug water channel.

The Dragon Beard Carp swam ahead.

On the Ironwood Ship, Shen Can stood with his hands behind him.

Huo Shan and other clan mbers were distributed across the Ironwood Ship.

As it was the first voyage after repair, Shen Can boarded the ship to enter the Great Marsh, also to check the sturdiness of the repaired Ironwood Ship.

...

In the following days, the Blazing Fla Division got busy.

Settling slaves, hunting outside, such was daily life, simple and unadorned.

In the blink of an eye, two years passed.

In the vast cave where the Dragon Beard Carp resided.

Thunder Sound howled, emanating from Shen Can’s body, a fierce scorching aura surged within the cave.

In the pond, the Dragon Beard Carp exposed half its head above water, its eyes fixed on Shen Can practicing his punches, occasionally swallowing a few fruits.

A quarter-hour later, Shen Can stopped punching.

His entire body was drenched in sweat, emitting intense heat.

Sacrificial Master: Shen Can

Martial Arts Realm: Power of Ninety-Nine Desolations

Sitting at the stone table carved by the pond, he grabbed a cooked big fish head and began to gnaw on it.

He’s been stuck at the Power of Ninety-Nine Desolations for a month.

The growth of Qi Strength beca increasingly difficult, like a wall blocking the flow of Qi Strength.

The fish head, half a丈 in size, was completely devoured by Shen Can, bones and all.

To the point where the Dragon Beard Carp kept looking at the table, then down at its reflection in the water.

So big, now it’s gone, blub...

After eating, Shen Can resud his punching practice.

After consuming the Tier Three fish head, waves of heat emanated from his stomach, spreading throughout his body.

As Shen Can punched, the Thunder Sound roared like a beast, and the scorching sensation of Qi Strength swept his entire body.

His hands began to feel tingling and increasingly intense, as if sothing was about to grow out.

The heat waves repeatedly washed over his arms, his sweat hairs bristled, his skin bulged, and scales shaped like Kui Patterns manifested on his arms.

One piece, two pieces...

Until Kui Patterns covered both arms.

Qi Strength surged like a rainbow, traversing through both arms.
