Chapter 333 - 145: Completing the Inheritance, Building the Blood Bone Purgatory!
Blazing Flame Division.
After the northern migration, although the tribe hasn’t officially stated changing its name, internally it’s already referred to as Blazing Flame.
There wasn’t any obstruction to this; everyone was originally gathered from the remnants and already knew they were part of a tribe.
Under the sunlight, the hills undulate like beasts, casting a dusky glow, with stone strongholds along the mountain and stone halls and towers below.
A Cyan Simurgh circles overhead, visible throughout the mountain range, where stone steps have been carved, and agile figures jump and climb up and down.
This is the newly built clan land of Blazing Flame, resembling a massive fortress of defense.
However, Shen Can is not in this clan land; he is now at the primary clan land within the Giant Mountain Range.
Over the years, there have been significant changes within the primary clan land.
The Witch Hall, due to its expansion, relocated out of the Clan City to a small mountain east of it.
Presently, there is one Tier Three Wizard, thirty-nine Tier Two Wizards, one hundred and eighty Tier One Wizards, and two thousand seven hundred and ninety-eight Witches.
The Witchcraft Technique taught by the Witch Hall encompasses the Five Elements, including medicine, Witch Talisman, forging, and other major categories.
Over the past year, Shen Can has completed the clan’s Five Elements Witchcraft inheritance, allowing cultivation up to Tier Three Peak.
As for advancing from Tier Two to Tier Four, he’ll consider it after he breaks through.
Besides Five Elements Witchcraft, the clan added a wind magic, brought back by Little Dragon Fish with Little Cyan Simurgh Bird from the Yongshan Ruins.
The Martial Hall relocated outside the Clan City to the west, situated in a small valley.
Martial Hall gathers three thousand six hundred young Martial Artist trainees, who complete trials after reaching the Celestial Vein Realm, then join the Clan Soldiers as Decurions. Outstanding performances allow promotion to Centurion.
Those who achieve merit can be quickly promoted to Thousand Captains.
The Celestial Craft Hall, adjacent to the Ancestral Temple, remained in place but expanded four to five times, with stone halls towering and lofts lofty.
Shen Can, returning from outside, appears in a valley four hundred miles outside the Clan City.
The valley looks ordinary from outside, lush with vegetation, leading deeper into the valley.
At the valley’s end is a downward cave, traversing through a long passage filled with the smell of blood, leading to a massive underground cavern.
The cavern is natural, combined with post-opening excavation, extending across ten miles, with translucent shining jade embedded in the upper rock walls.
The jade’s light illuminates the bloody path below, filled with blood and severed limbs.
The smell of blood and rot invades the mouth.
The cave winds, filled with stone pillars.
Moving a few more steps inside, one can hear sobbing sounds echoing like crying.
Further inside lay the piled Xiaoyang Corpses, Tier Two and Tier Three, stacking into a corpse mountain.
Some bones have merged with the rocky mountain, giving an initial frightening appearance.
Threads of blood energy swirl from these bones, manifesting hideous Xiaoyang faces, colliding against the upper rock wall.
Then, wave-like runes appear on the rock wall, creating a boundary glow, holding back the fleeing blood shadows.
In the cave’s deepest part stands the broken skeleton of a Tier Four Wild Beast and the separated head of a Tier Four Human Race Divine Treasure.
The beast is the Three-winged Desolate Bird of Muo Xiao, the human an apostate from the Sacrificial Banner.
These two Tier Four beings emit a heavy bloodthirsty pressure, piling with the countless Xiaoyang Corpses.
At this moment, Huo Shan is amidst these corpses, eyes wide as the crying resounds incessantly in his ears.
According to the predecessors in the Dai Land, their tribe has the Ten Thousand Beasts Prison to temper the Martial Artist’s will.
The Ten Thousand Beasts Prison still contains remains of Tier Four Evil Beast or even Disaster Beast, birthing various anomalies, which only the strong within Tier Three can enter.
For now, even Shen Can does not know where the Evil Beast is, but since learning about the Ten Thousand Beasts Prison, he started collecting a large amount of Xiaoyang Corpses.
Compared to the tribe of the Dai Land predecessors, Blazing Flame has a considerable gap, but this isn’t irreparable.
Both temper the will; Wild Beast and Xiaoyang have different paths to the same goal.
"Acan, I am ready."
At this moment, Huo Shan speaks.
"Buzz!"
Behind the Tier Four skeleton is a three-meter stone pillar, hollow inside, a stone chamber containing a Sacrificial Artifact.
The buzzing sound arises from the Sacrificial Artifact, with waves sweeping up, sharply stirring the blood energy within the surrounding bones.
The bloody mist envelops the entire cavern, and numerous Xiaoyang form from the blood shadow, roaring and rushing toward Huo Shan.
The slain Xiaoyang Martial Artists, each carrying their lifetime grudges, reviving like real beings.
The grievances gather like tides, turning the whole cavern into a Ghostly Realm.
Kill! Kill! Kill!
The sounds of killing ring in Huo Shan’s ears, and he clenches his fist, punching forward, obliterating the stabbing Xiaoyang grudges.
Yet, around him are blood shadows, each fiercely ominous, some extending claws from flowing blood water, attempting to grab him.
...
Shen Can stands at a distance, observing all the transformations.
He wishes to test how effective this Blood Bone Purgatory crafted with Sacrificial Spirit, Xiaoyang Corpses, and Tier Four Lifeform bones is.
Merely presenting a corpse mountain and blood sea only evokes the most rudimentary sensory change.
Some old soldiers seasoned in battles wouldn’t be much affected by such sights.
To further temper the will, additional techniques are needed, like sharper killing force, terrifying scenes, or even stimulating a Martial Artist’s personal flaws.
