I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Chapter 332 - 145: Completing the Inheritance, Constructing the Blood Bone Purgatory!

A year after the great war, the scattered Xiaoyang Race Soldiers were no longer in a panicked state of fleeing endlessly.

The three major branches were greatly defeated, leaving behind many scattered soldiers. Naturally, they couldn’t be ignored.

Each of the three branches sent out some Celestial Vein Martial Artists to gather the remnant soldiers.

In the vast mountains and rivers, beyond cities and tribes, there were mostly wilderness and lakes, making it easy to hide and traverse.

While gathering the remnant soldiers, they also brought back news about the changes in the Ji Land situation.

The Yanran Division returned to the northwest clan land of Ji Land, and Lord Jishan relocated to the west bank of the Guimu River.

Within the vast area of the eastern Ji Land, there was no powerful Great Bo Division holding the ground.

This situation indeed took the Xiaoyang Race by surprise.

This opening up essentially allowed the two major branches, Muo Yan and Qiu Yin, who retreated into the eastern jungles, to move southward to the Luo Region and Yu Region.

Did the Jishan Bo Division take the wrong Witch Medicine?

Or were they too frightened by the defeat?

No, this great war was clearly a victory for the Human Race.

...

On the upper reaches of the Luo River, the mountain stream was lush with water grass, rarely visited by people.

A group of Xiaoyang crossed the Luo River here, climbing onto the mountain stream, quickly crossing the mountains on both sides, and entering the jungle.

On a small mountain, Muo Feilong gazed into the distance, the vast forest shrouded in a faint mist.

"Let’s go."

Then, Muo Feilong disappeared into the mountains.

Among the more than a thousand Xiaoyang he gathered, there were five in the Celestial Vein Realm, along with himself, a Celestial Vein Ninth Layer Martial Artist, enough to roam the area as long as they didn’t confront the powerful Upper-class Tribes.

Having experienced numerous great wars, Muo Feilong naturally wouldn’t seek death.

After the defeat at Heyang, he was detained in the camp, initially thinking it was just about Heyang’s defeat, but unexpectedly, there was an attack on tribe land by the Human Race.

The method used to attack the tribe land was precisely the method he used against the Human Race at Heyang.

And it almost happened simultaneously, causing heavy losses within the tribe.

The Human Race had stolen his method!

Were it not for the sudden defeat, Muo Feilong felt he might have been executed by the Vein Master.

Over the past year, he carefully reflected on the defeat at Heyang, questioning why the Human Race succeeded in their own tribe land while he failed.

It wasn’t that the method Muo Long offered was ineffective, but his previous application was problematic, and because the Human Race was prepared.

The Jishan Human Race and his Xiaoyang had long been embroiled in intense conflict, their tactics sharp and quick to learn.

Since that was the case, why should he stay in Ji Land?

Breaking into smaller groups, attacking one by one, striking and then retreating.

If he couldn’t handle the Human Race in Ji Land, couldn’t he handle the ones in Luo Region and Yu Region?

...

Lushui.

A tributary to the southwest of the Guimu River.

The banks of Lushui were lush with water grass, the river gurgling, with Wild Beasts resembling moose grazing on the water grass on both banks.

On the water, warships bobbed with the waves.

Looking around, it was a scene of tranquility and peace.

Amid the undulating hills on both sides of the water bank, one could see houses densely packed, sprawling across a hundred miles.

This was the new clan land of the Jishan Bo Division.

At first glance, it appeared too ordinary, lacking the towering majestic mountains of the old clan land, and the dragonscale-like ancient trees.

This was intentionally done by Lord Jishan; if he couldn’t stop the Xiaoyang, it had to look like it couldn’t be stopped.

After all, his focus needed to shift to recuperation and nurturing, attempting to cultivate the next generation leader for the Clan Division while he was still alive.

Of course, should anyone think of being presumptuous because the clan land looks ordinary, the Jishan Clan would certainly teach them what fists and feet mean.

Deep within the clan land, under an ancient tree, Yuan Zhenyue stood with hands behind his back, looking out over the new clan land.

"Zhenyue, you’ve just broken through, you should take care to recover."

Before long, a Jishan Clan Elder came from afar, seeing Yuan Zhenyue at the ancient tree.

With Lord Jishan absent, there were countless trivial matters in the migration of such a big Bo Division, even the clan elders were kept extremely busy.

Thus, the Jishan Clan Elder temporarily took over from Lord Jishan to handle some matters.

The elder looked at Yuan Zhenyue, a smile creasing his aged face.

"The fortunes of our Jishan have risen. We’ve triumphed over Xiaoyang, and you’ve advanced to Divine Treasure. With decades of recuperation, once the young ones grow up, our Jishan will flourish again."

Having said that, the elder patted Yuan Zhenyue on the shoulder.

"You’ve just broken through, with your Divine Treasure Celestial Vein damaged, take care to recover. Our clan has me, this pile of old bones.

As for the Clan Chief, he has some unfinished business, he’ll return when done.

Besides, now that Xiaoyang is defeated, even Muo Xiao was defeated, the clan is stable and without worries, you don’t need to fear."

Yuan Zhenyue smiled at the elder.

How could he not worry!

The Clan Chief was gravely injured and incapacitated, his urgent appointment was something worth lauding.

If the Clan Chief doesn’t return soon, he’ll be fully recovered.

The elder, suspecting nothing, urged Yuan Zhenyue to rest, then headed back to the distance.

Besides migrating the Clan Division, the clan was also gathering the remnant people in Ji Land.

Regardless of gender, they were gathering them, with male settlers joining, and females allocated to clan members.

The reason for no longer selecting tribe women from vassal tribes was to avoid past situations.

The dignified Bo Division was once constrained by vassal tribes through marital ties.

Taking advantage of the opportunity for recuperation and growth, this situation must be swiftly rectified.

...

The developments in the Jishan Bo Division naturally also alerted Yanran and Blazing Flame; now the two divisions were crossing the river with Jishan.

Yanran was similarly gathering the remnant people, reducing the marital ties ratio between tribes and vassal tribes.

It was Blazing Flame, gathering all remnants, not having this inducement, yet still taking the lessons from past experiences to heart.
