182: Chapter 182: Historical Stele 182: Chapter 182: Historical Stele Mada Blood Moon is no ordinary being.
Aside from her intrinsic strength, based on her status, if she is willing to assist, it is believed that Zhou Tian would hardly suffer within the sphere of influence of the Blood Moon Lord.
Thus, if Zhou Tian utilizes his relationship with Mada Blood Moon properly, he would not encounter much trouble internally within the camp.
Mada Blood Moon could surmise Zhou Tian’s thoughts, and she was neither fulfilled nor surprised by Zhou Tian’s performance.
After pondering, she said: “Although I should not ntion assisting you to my husband, based on my judgnt, I can offer you so guidance.”
“Please enlighten , Mada!” Without any hesitation, after hearing Mada Blood Moon’s words, Zhou Tian imdiately sought her advice.
After all, Mada Blood Moon used to be a high-level figure in the Beastman Empire, even if she doesn’t exert any power, simply guiding Zhou Tian would be enough to save him from so missteps.
“It’s good that you have such ntality.
For a long period, don’t think about separating from the Blood Moon Territory.
Opportunities and dangers on the mainland are not as simple as you think; if you don’t want to miss out on those events, you need to find a strong backing to participate.
My husband is not the strongest lord in terms of strength, but his character is one of the best among all territories.
In addition, I can assist you secretly, so you won’t suffer under my husband.” Having said this, Mada Blood Moon paused for a mont, then added: “However, necessary preparations should not be neglected.
Although I advise you not to rush to independence, you should also make so contingency plans.
I can see your situation, although your strength is good at your level, it is built on your current status.
If your position is taken by other monsters, you might end up being reduced to an ordinary monster.”
Zhou Tian knew that Mada Blood Moon’s words were not false.
In fact, this has been his trouble all along.
Upon hearing Mada Blood Moon’s words, he imdiately asked; “Mada, please tell what I should do to avoid such a situation.”
“The simplest thod is to strive to secure your position.
As long as you remain the leader of your Beastman tribe, no one can shake the foundation of your strength.” Upon saying this, Mada Blood Moon continued, knowing her words carried little weight: “Of course, there are other solutions to this issue I ntioned, but I need to remind you that, although the thod I propose can prevent you from being tied to your current position, it entails significant risks.
If you succeed, it is well and good.
But if you fail, you will lose more than just your strength.”
“There’s no such thing as a free lunch in the world.
To gain sothing, one must pay the corresponding price.
As long as I can avoid the situation where all I have is taken away by others, I’m willing to take risks and try Mada’s thod.” If it were sothing else, Zhou Tian might not be willing to take such a risk, but this issue was a thorn in his side, and he had long wanted to address this weakness.
Therefore, even though Mada Blood Moon didn’t reveal the specific thod, it was enough to tantalize Zhou Tian.
Seeing Zhou Tian’s determination, Mada Blood Moon nodded approvingly and then continued, “It’s best that you have such resolve.
While I am here, the Lord usually won’t harm you, but there’s nothing absolute in the world.
If you have a conflict of interest with the Lord one day, even if I protect you, the Lord may still harm you.
Therefore, it’s good that you prepare in advance.” After talking casually about her husband in front of Zhou Tian, Mada Blood Moon added, “Usually, our monsters’ strength is absolutely connected to the territory.
The size of the territory determines our strength.
However, there are exceptions to this.
As far as I know, there are two ways for us monsters to maintain our original strength after losing the support of the territory.”
“What are the two thods?” Upon hearing Mada Blood Moon’s words, Zhou Tian instantly got excited.
Prior to this, Zhou Tian had wanted to decouple his strength from the Beastman Territory, but he didn’t have any solution.
Now, hearing that Mada Blood Moon had two solutions to his problem, how could Zhou Tian not be excited?
Observing Zhou Tian’s reaction, Mada Blood Moon shook her head and said directly: “From what I know, if you want to decouple your strength from your clan’s territory, the first thod is to seek the Historical Stele.”
“A stele?”
“Yes, precisely a stele.” Possibly deciphering the puzzlent in Zhou Tian’s eyes, Mada Blood Moon began her explanation straight after Zhou Tian’s expression gave way to it: “In our world, there exists a mysterious force.
No one knows the extent to its power, but since the surfacing of this entity, it has never once involved itself in the events of the continent.
However, this entity has a peculiar habit—it claims itself as a witness to the continent’s history, and what it enjoys doing most is inscribing what they know onto steles.
Any monster that cos across such a stele becos the first to undergo transformation by the special energy emanating from it.
This energy solidifies a monster’s strength to the level they were at upon encountering the stele and no matter how large or small their territory becos or even if they’re devoid of any domain, their power will not vary.”
Upon hearing Mada Blood Moon’s words, the face of an almost forgotten figure flashed across Zhou Tian’s mind.
Zhou Tian had never thought in such depth.
Now, upon hearing Mada Blood Moon’s words, so things that he previously didn’t pay attention to seed to command his attention in this mont.
If it hadn’t been for Mada Blood Moon, Zhou Tian truly wouldn’t have recalled so things that felt off from the past.
Back when Zhou Tian was a Beastman, the strongest puppeteer of the beginner’s area clearly had the strength to unify it, but in the end, he never did so.
Furthermore, even though he had only occupied a tiny territory, his prowess surpassed Zhou Tian’s after unifying the beginner’s area.
This situation, which seed odd to Zhou Tian initially, had now beco clearer upon listening to Mada Blood Moon.
No wonder the puppeteer back then, despite possessing the power to unify the beginner’s area, held sway only over a small territory, effectively being a covert ruler.
No wonder Zhou Tian discovering a space under the puppeteer’s territory along with a stele could alert the Blood Moon Lord; it turned out the puppeteer had such an extraordinary encounter back then.
Of course, those thoughts rely flashed across Zhou Tian’s mind.
Indeed, upon comprehending the first thod Mada Blood Moon suggested, Zhou Tian flatly rejected trying to resolve his problem that way without a second thought.
Indeed, just finding a single stele could solve Zhou Tian’s gravest concern, which to any eye would not be difficult.
However, Zhou Tian also harbours his own ambitions, and as per Mada Blood Moon’s words, although finding a stele could cure the issue of his power being tied to the size of his territory, if Zhou Tian really chose that approach, his power would hit a definite ceiling.
Whatever strength Zhou Tian possesses now, he will possess indefinitely in the future.
If things truly co to such pass, his dreams would forever remain beyond reach.
Upon such thinking, Zhou Tian would never resort to the power of these steles to solve his problem, even if that ant maintaining his current situation.
