Witch Wind

Chapter 109 City Natives
Three days had passed since Sophie was captured alive.

The wind was howling in the sky, and a cloud was flying rapidly. Xing Tianli did not hesitate to use up his magic power, riding the clouds and mist, holding up Beihe Cangyi, and flying at full speed in the sky.

On the west coast of Black Borneo, there are thirteen large ports, including Black Pearl Harbor, White Giant Clam, Red Coral, Pink Hawksbill Turtle, etc. In the past three days, Xing Tianli had been working non-stop, and along with Beihe Cangyi, who was also working non-stop, they visited various ports one after another along the coastline.

The procedure was exactly the same. The clouds fell directly from the sky and landed directly in front of the political and military chiefs of the port.

The political officials and garrison commanders of these ports were either members of the Beihe family or the Nanshan family, or the retainers of the two families. Xing Tianli brought Beihe Cangyi with him, descending from the sky in such a "ghostly" manner that everyone bowed down in worship.

As soon as Beihecang showed up and revealed his identity, Xing Tianli didn't care about anything and directly used witchcraft and incantations to control the lives of these officials. To be on the safe side, Xing Tianli extended this method of control to the level of the 'squad leaders' of the garrisons in various ports and ordinary minor clerks in the government system.

With the "righteousness" of Beihe Cangyi, the eldest son of the Beihe family, coupled with the "ghostly power" displayed by Xing Tianli, and the fact that his own life and property were completely under the control of Xing Tianli, these large port cities fell completely under the control of Xing Tianli.

In particular, Xing Tianli sent three hundred Xing Tian brothers to guard each port city, and also asked the Ingis, Saint Norman, and merchants, mine owners, large plantation owners, etc. from the vassal states of the two countries to gather a large number of armed guards to station in the ports.

Basically, after three busy days, the entire west coast of Black Borneo was under control.

Even if there was an emergency order coming from Dongyun, the officials of these ports would only obey Xing Tianli's orders and would never even look at the orders from the mainland.

After finishing all this, Xing Tianli left the exhausted Beihecang back to Black Pearl Harbor to recuperate. He then took his three thousand brothers and Sophie and set off from White Clam Harbor, deep into the jungle of Black Borneo.

In the sleeves, pieces of battleship armor alloy steel were constantly melting, and strands of Taichu Qi were continuously injected into the Tongtian Yuling Banner. Tens of thousands of armored soldiers and evil spirits showed up in broad daylight, stirring up wisps of gloomy wind, holding up the three thousand Xingtian brothers and their contracted beasts, and pressed against the treetops of the jungle that were tens of feet high, heading towards the depths of the jungle.

Starting from the White Clam Port, in the first thousand miles, you can see settlements of all sizes, as well as large fields and plantations opened up in the jungle.

There are gold mines near some large rivers, where hundreds of thousands of miners, under the watchful eyes of armed guards, are busy extracting gold from the river sand. Next to each mine, miners like ants are diligently mining cartloads of ore and continuously sending them to the rough processing workshop.

Gradually, the deeper we went into the jungle, the more these scenes of "mass production" that symbolized "civilization" disappeared.

Once you get two thousand miles deep into the jungle, you can no longer see any trace of human civilization.

There is miasma everywhere, swamps all over the place, countless giant pythons, giant crocodiles and the like running rampant, the waves are rolling, and in the giant rivers that are dozens of miles wide or even two or three hundred miles wide, you can see black shadows as long as more than ten feet swimming quickly under the turbulent water.

The living environment here is extremely harsh. If the so-called "civilization" comes here, it will be swallowed up by the jungle without mercy.

The deeper you go, the more indigenous tribes you find.

When the cold wind swept across a large river, Xing Tianli and his companions even watched a large-scale water battle at the primitive tribal level. Two super-giant tribes, each with 30,000 to 50,000 adult warriors, rowed thousands of canoes made of tree trunks, more than ten feet long, and fought frantically on the turbulent river.

The sound of drums and horns resounded through the sky, and tiny arrows flew across the sky with sharp whistling sounds. People were constantly hit by the poisoned arrows and fell into the canoe without even a grunt.

The weapons they used were basically stones, animal horns, animal bones, wooden sticks, etc., and there were very few "magic weapons" made of rough polished metal blocks ejected from natural volcanoes. Even with such primitive weapons, Xing Tianli and others watched from a low altitude for less than half an hour, and more than 10,000 people were killed or injured in the two tribes.

Beating drums and blowing trumpets, both tribes joyfully returned to their camp in the jungle, carrying the bodies of their fallen members.

The women in the camp first cried bitterly, then they wiped their tears, paid homage to their dead tribesmen, and then chopped them into pieces, ground them into meat paste with stones, and mixed them together with the fallen rotten wooden stakes outside the camp.

After the mixture of blood, flesh and rotten wood stumps was complete, the women took a bunch of brightly colored poisonous mushrooms, shook them gently, and spread the tiny spores on the bloody culture medium.

When everything was done, the natives sang and danced in the camp, praying and worshipping towards a small altar in the middle of the camp, which was made entirely of gold and silver, with exquisite craftsmanship, and completely out of place in this primitive tribe.

They even made a primitive alcoholic beverage from the fruit.

The tribe's leaders were drunk and called on the tribe's warriors to fight in front of the altar to please the gods. The losers sighed and ran to eat meat and drink wine, while the winners stood in front of the altar triumphantly and cut open their chests with a sharp obsidian knife.

Soon, these victorious warriors were also turned into culture medium for growing poisonous mushrooms!

Xing Tianli and others were dumbfounded.

They all looked at Sophie who was controlled by the two ghost generals - these indigenous savages were so evil and it was definitely the result of Sophie and others' instigation.

"It's not what you think." Sophie sighed innocently, "Before we arrived, they did the same thing. They killed each other and used the flesh and blood of their enemies and their own warriors to sacrifice to the gods."

"We taught them to grow poisonous mushrooms with corpses, so that their flesh and blood can better enter the material circulation system of nature. This is better than eating the corpses of their enemies and their own family members. Isn't it a little more civilized?"

Shrugging her shoulders, Sophie said proudly, "Since they worshipped us as gods and learned how to grow poisonous mushrooms, they no longer eat the corpses of their own kind. There will no longer be the spread of that terrible 'cannibal virus' among them."

Sophie frowned and sneered at the Xing Tianren brothers who were accompanying her, "Do you know what 'virus' means? Do you know the harm of that 'man-eating virus'?"

Xing Tianli coughed lightly.

Sophie immediately behaved like a good little lady, not daring to show that wanton and provocative look again.

Xing Tianli snorted coldly. What is a "man-eating virus"? Isn't it just a "prion"? Although he was a standard liberal arts student in his previous life, he still read some interesting articles in the Internet age of knowledge explosion.

He had no idea what prions were, but at least he knew they existed.

Man-eating virus?

Haha, this uneducated goddess can’t even understand a standard academic term.

Xing Tianli felt a little complacent in his heart, and felt very happy that he crushed the natives in terms of IQ and knowledge.

Leaving the jungle area occupied by two super-giant tribes, we continued to advance deeper into the jungle. After going deeper for hundreds of miles, a huge stone city suddenly appeared in the jungle ahead.

Xing Tianli took a deep breath and stopped the cloud. Tens of thousands of soldiers and evil spirits also stopped the evil wind, and they all hovered on the treetops.

Sophie chuckled. "Shocked, isn't it? When I first came here, I was also very surprised. How could these native savages, idiots who don't even have writing, build such a city in this jungle?"

Xing Tianli exhaled heavily and said in a deep voice: "It can be seen that since ancient times, this Black Borneo has been the territory of our Shenzhou. Brothers, this must be the city built by the ancestors of my Wu clan, but I don't know why it was abandoned here?"

Sophie's smile suddenly disappeared.

She widened her eyes and looked at Xing Tianli up and down. "Since ancient times?" This word sounded quite subtle. Are you serious?
In the jungle ahead, I saw a city more than fifty miles long and wide, with walls more than fifteen feet high, standing tall, with two three-hundred-foot-high mountains, one in the south and one in the north, as the center. It was made of huge stones that were more than six feet long, wide and high and polished into square shapes.

Over the years, tiny vines have climbed up the city walls, and in many places, the exposed stone walls are covered with thick moss. But you can still see the patterns of mountains, rivers, flowers, birds, insects and fish carved on the boulders.

In particular, many of the characters are so familiar.

Pangu created the world, Gonggong angrily crashed into the mountains, Kuafu chased the sun, Houyi shot the sun, and in the sky, the gods lingering in the clouds wielded thunder and fire, madly attacking the huge and sturdy figures on the earth that were taller than the mountains...

Totem poles, each as thick as a man's embrace and several meters high, stood upright on the city wall.

The city wall has been covered with vines and moss, but the totem poles carved from the same stone are extremely clean, as if someone has been rubbing and polishing them for years. Each totem pole is shiny and smooth, and reflects a metallic green light in the sunlight.

On these totem poles, each huge "ancient witch pattern" is extremely clear.

There are a total of 1,296 totem poles on the four city walls, and each totem pole has 360 ancient witch patterns on it. These ancient witch patterns and totem poles combined together form a giant witch formation that can "ward off disasters", "pray for blessings", "dispel evil spirits", "kill evil ghosts", and can also regulate the natural weather conditions of wind, rain, thunder and lightning around it, and protect the territory from good weather.

Inside the city, with the two three-hundred-foot mountains as the center, stepped pyramids of varying sizes stand symmetrically from north to south, with a giant straight road three miles wide and fifty miles long between the two mountains as the dividing line.

Those pyramids, like these totem poles, have gone through countless years, but they are still smooth and neat. There is not even a speck of moss growing on the surface, and every stone is as clean as a mirror.

Below the pyramids, there were neatly arranged courtyard-shaped small battle fortresses, similar in style to the Xingtian Clan's ancestral home in Nanxun Town, cast from huge stones mixed with molten iron. Tsk, except for the different stone materials, all the buildings were exactly printed out of the same mold.

Look intently.

On the top of the two mountains in the middle of the city, there stands a bronze sacred tree that is more than ten feet tall.

The two big trees are made of bronze, with a simple shape and a mysterious atmosphere. Dragons are entwined on the trunks, and black birds stand on the branches. On the top of one bronze sacred tree stands a golden crow carrying the sun on its back, and on the top of the other bronze sacred tree stands a toad carrying the bright moon on its back!

The Golden Crow faces west and the Toad faces east.

The big sun behind the Golden Crow is a sphere made of polished ruby ​​with a diameter of three feet, and it is completely bright and flawless; and the bright moon behind the toad is a sphere made of polished cyan crystal with a diameter of two feet, and it is also completely clear and flawless.

Xing Tianli has sharp eyes.

He even saw that the two spheres were carved with densely packed tiny characters using witchcraft.

Those are two "Witch and Warrior Heritages", one is "Golden Crow Burning the World Art", and the other is "Jade Toad Purifying the World Art"!
In the Lingtai Purple Mansion, countless witch patterns rolled together, and the "Original Witch Scripture" was in response. Two identical "Golden Crow Burning the World Art" and "Jade Toad Purifying the World Art" floated out, with a line of small characters next to them, marking the origins of these two witch and martial arts inheritances - Yu Dynasty, only those with the blood of the Supreme Witch Emperor can practice, which is the purest "Sun" and "Moon" practice method in the world!
When one practices "The Art of the Golden Crow Burning the World" to an extremely deep level, one can transform into the sun, control the sun's power, condense the sun's true fire, and burn billions of miles with ease.

If one practices "Yuchan Purifying World Secret" to the highest level, one can transform into the bright moon, control the power of the moon, condense the true water of the moon, and freeze the world in a single thought.

There is no doubt that such an arrangement and such an inheritance actually appeared here. It can be seen that many years ago, there must have been the most top-notch wizard in Dayu sitting here and opened up an incredible foundation.

But now, in the huge city, there are only countless natives with bare buttocks, animal skins wrapped around their waists and hips, and shameful things wrapped with animal horns, "squeaking" and shouting and fighting like a group of monkeys. Those "witches" who once possessed incredible powers have long disappeared.

Fortunately, these natives seemed to have a great reverence for those stepped pyramids and those huge courtyard-shaped battle fortresses, which came from their blood.

Although the entire city had been occupied by them, they only built triangular huts in the open areas of the city to live in, and no one dared to live in the pyramids or war fortresses.

The ancient, wild, and majestic stone buildings and the primitive, simple, toy-like shacks are clearly distinguished, yet harmoniously pieced together, together forming the unique charm of this city.

Outside the city, in the jungle, there are countless triangular huts clustered here and there. According to Sophie, there are thousands of tribes of all sizes gathered here because of her orders. Under Sophie's training, these native savages have gradually learned to open up fields and grow crops, and gradually settled down with this city as the center.

The jungle was littered with rotten wooden stumps that had been chopped down, processed, and completely rotted away.

Dark flesh and blood were smeared on the rotten wood, and clusters of brightly colored poisonous mushrooms were growing wildly on them. These poisonous mushrooms grew incredibly vigorously, and in many places, a single poisonous mushroom grew to the size of a car hood, making large areas of the jungle colorful and inexplicably creepy.

When the wind blew, large patches of poisonous mushrooms swayed slightly, and a large number of spores floated in the wind. These spores reflected colorful light in the sunlight, like a colorful cloud, slowly moving along the ground.

Xing Tianli pushed the cloud under his feet and flew directly to the two big mountains in the center of the city.

He landed under the bronze sacred tree in the north, looked up at the huge red ruby ​​ball shining in the sun, and said with emotion: "You are quite respectful of ancient cultural relics. Such a large ruby ​​ball is a rare treasure, and you didn't even take it away."

Sophie's expression suddenly changed.

She raised her head suddenly, the silver-green light in her pupils blazing. She stared at the glittering red sphere above her head in horror and hissed, "How is this possible? This tree, I, I, I have been here for so many years, how could I not have noticed them?"

Sophie was shaking with fear.

The fog in her mind suddenly shattered, and her mind suddenly became clear - she suddenly remembered that over the years, she and her men had passed by these two mountains countless times, and had seen the two bronze sacred trees and these two glittering treasures countless times.

But they all subconsciously ignored the existence of these two bronze sacred trees!
Even the city itself.

There are so many complete pyramids of all sizes, so many spacious and comfortable courtyard castles, what wonderful places to live...but in this city, Sophie and her men are still living in the wooden houses built by the natives!
They didn't even think of occupying a pyramid or a battle fortress to live in!

It is obvious that the living conditions in these pyramids or these battle fortresses are much more comfortable than their wooden houses!

They didn't even have this idea in mind!
"This world has fallen into the Age of the Last Dharma..." Sophie murmured, "We are the only extraordinary people. Why is it like this? What kind of power does this city possess?"

Xing Tianli let out a breath.

He closed his eyes and quietly felt the faint charm emanating from the city.

This city is dead.

In the Dharma Ending Age, this city has been dead for a long time. But his temperament and inner qualities still emit a faint aura. It is this extremely faint aura that may dissipate at any time that prevents Sophie and others from doing whatever they want in this city!
"You should feel lucky. If it weren't for the Dharma Ending Age, you would have died before you even entered this witch city!"

Xing Tianli snorted coldly with great pride and arrogance.

He bowed solemnly to the two bronze sacred trees, performed his salute, walked around them with the Yu step, chanted incantations and began a witch prayer ceremony. After some performance, two precious balls, one big and one small, one red and one blue, slowly flew up and fell into Xing Tianli's hands.

'boom'!
The two mountain peaks shook together, and on the mountainside, a stone door ten feet high and six feet wide slowly opened.

Sophie's face looked extremely ugly.

She has been wandering in this city for many years, but she really didn't realize that there are such stone gates and such spaces inside these two mountains!

Xing Tianli led his men into the stone gate.

Thin but real wisps of primordial Qi permeate the vast space within the belly of the mountain.

Cave heaven and blessed land.

There are two broken spiritual springs between these two peaks.

Just like the broken spiritual cave that Xing Tianli found in the cave under Mount Huangshan in his previous life, when the Earth was also in the Dharma Ending Age, these two spiritual springs, although dying, still continue to produce thin primordial Qi.

On the ground, there was a huge city, a formation consisting of 1,296 totem poles. Although the entire city had been destroyed, the remaining "charm" of the formation still managed to suppress the paradise in the two mountains.

The two springs were still struggling to hold on, releasing the thin primordial Qi, nourishing the heavy sets of wizard armor and the heavy wizard soldiers in the space inside the mountain.

These wizard armors and wizard soldiers are all made of bronze.

It is heavy and sharp, and the internal witch pattern formation remains intact. Both its defense and lethality far exceed the heavy armor and weapons made with modern technology in the hands of Xing Tianren and his men.

Inside the two mountains.

Thirty-six thousand sets of heavy armor and matching weapons were inscribed with the Great Sun Mantra, which, when activated, could release high-temperature flames that could melt gold and iron, with terrifying lethality. The corresponding thirty-six thousand sets of heavy armor and matching weapons were inscribed with the Great Moon Mantra, which, once activated, would release terrifying cold air that would freeze all directions.

Xing Tianli picked up a long spear and tried it. The cold air released by it even froze ordinary steel to a crisp, and it exploded into large pieces of iron powder with a slight touch. If a flesh and blood body was touched by such cold air, it would definitely disintegrate and explode into ice crystals.

Obviously, this was the city’s armory in the past.

The builders of this city abandoned the city for unknown reasons, but these weapons were left here. No matter what the reason was, these weapons now helped Xing Tianli.

Brothers Xing Tianren and Xing Tianzhi immediately changed their witch armor and put on witch soldiers. In the Dharma Ending Age, once they leave these two mountains, the spirituality of these witch armor and witch soldiers will continue to leak out. In a year at most, the spirituality will be gone, and the witch pattern formation inside will begin to collapse.

But as long as Xing Tianli is here, as long as he works harder and replenishes the Primordial Qi to these witch armors and witch soldiers once every six months, it will be enough for Xing Tian's brothers to use these magical weapons without any worries.

Even in the Dharma Ending Age, Xing Tianren and others do not have enough wizard power to unleash the strongest power of these wizard armors and wizard soldiers.

According to Xing Tianli's estimation, at least shells below five inches in diameter would not be able to harm them at all. In the future battlefield, as long as Xing Tian's brothers were not unlucky enough to be directly hit by large-caliber naval guns, ordinary weapons would not be able to harm them at all.

This is the so-called humanoid tank!

Walking out of the mountain and closing the two stone doors, a faint light lingered through the cracks in the doors, and all traces disappeared.

When Sophie saw the brand new wizard armor on Xing Tianren and others, her body trembled slightly - she was not envious or jealous, but extremely scared.

This city is so strange. If there is no armory in the belly of the mountain, but some other strange things are sealed, she has been hanging around in this city for so many years, wouldn't she have been killed by the enemy long ago?

Inexplicably, she became more and more in awe and fear of Xing Tianli. When facing Xing Tianli, she became more respectful and submissive, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

How to show your power in front of others?

There are countless ways.

How to show your divine power in front of a group of indigenous savages?
Xing Tianli chose the most direct, roughest, most violent and most visually impactful method - Sophie summoned more than a thousand of her subordinates who stayed in the city, blew the clear flute, and gathered millions of natives inside and outside the city.

In front of so many natives, Xing Tianli stood on a totem pole and held up with both hands a square stone pillar that had just been dug by a ghost general from the Earthly Fairyland. The pillar was ten meters long and wide at the bottom, a hundred meters high, with a total volume of ten thousand cubic meters and a total weight of tens of thousands of tons.

Huge stone pillars.

A tiny figure.

Xing Tianli stood on the totem pole, holding up the huge rectangular stone pillar with his hands, and looked down at the many natives.

Millions of natives were in an uproar, they clamored in fear, and then fell to their knees like a tide, kowtowed and worshipped Xing Tianli frantically.

A cloud of water rose under Xing Tianli's feet, and he quietly released the Five Thunder Curses one after another. In the black water cloud, large flashes of lightning flashed. He was like the legendary Thunder God, stepping on countless thunderclouds and carrying the stone pillars up into the sky.

Sophie and her subordinates, those delicate and handsome men and women, all looked at Xing Tianli with bulging eyes as if they had seen a ghost - what kind of terrifying creature was this that could easily lift tens of thousands of tons of weight and rise into the sky on the clouds!
In their homeland, only the most powerful elves in the jungle could possess such tremendous strength.

Hasn't this world fallen into the so-called 'Ending Age'?
How can it be?

Xing Tianli rose high into the sky, roaring in a low voice, and the thousand drops of his lifeblood in his body burned up in an instant. The mighty blood rushed through his body, and his body suddenly swelled up, six feet... eight feet... ten feet... three feet...

Xing Tianli's body swelled to more than three meters tall, with his chest exposed, revealing his extremely strong muscles. He held up the huge stone pillar above his head with one hand, and then punched it with blazing thunder and slammed it with terrifying force.

With a loud bang, the boulder collapsed.

Large and small pieces of rubble rushed up several miles high. Xing Tianli opened his mouth and spewed out lightning like plasma. The sky was full of lightning, and countless pieces of rubble were blasted into pieces. The sky was full of rubble falling, hitting the nearby natives and making them bleed, but no one dared to say a word.

Xing Tianli slowly descended. Standing on the totem pole, he was about three meters tall. He lowered his head and looked down at the natives. He shouted in a deep voice in the native language he had just learned: "I am your god. You are my servants. Serve me loyally and obey my orders, and you can live like human beings!"

"Disobedient!"

Xing Tianli looked at a mountain over a hundred feet high outside the city.

The nine small tripods vibrated together, and the nine golden lights burned out in an instant, along with the blood energy transformed from the burning of a thousand drops of life essence and blood in the body. The tremendous power was consumed in an instant.

He formed seals with his hands and blasted out a 'primordial thunder tribulation' with all his might.

The black-red lightning turned into a thunder ball several feet in size, roaring out with a terrifying thunderclap, and hit the hill dozens of miles away. With a loud bang, a black-red column of fire shot up into the sky, a mushroom cloud slowly spread, and a visible white shock wave swept in all directions, blowing away thousands of giant trees.

The hundred-foot mountain disappeared instantly.

In the jungle, a flat land with a diameter of several miles was broken open. Thousands of fallen trees were burning fiercely. A large number of wild animals were affected by the explosion, and the beasts that were killed were also burning. The strong wind blew over, bringing with it the pungent smell of burnt meat.

Countless natives kowtowed madly.

They were shouting wildly and at the same time, their simple minds were instantly imprinted with the deepest impression - the 'Supreme God' in their ancestral mythology passed down from generation to generation had finally returned to them.

There is no need for Xing Tianli to say much, as their ancestral mythology has already provided the most perfect interpretation of the concept of "God".

Follow God wholeheartedly.

Serve the gods wholeheartedly.

Do your best to please the gods.

In this way, when they die, their souls can return to God and enjoy endless blessings that they cannot imagine.

The thinking of these natives is very simple. Their so-called endless blessings are probably just endless barbecue, endless fruit wine, endless big and strong women to sleep with, and endless tamed wild beasts in the cattle pen...that's all.

The Xingtian brothers, wearing a full set of bronze armor and with sturdy figures, looked like gods. They walked among the natives. Wherever they passed, all the natives worshiped them devoutly, and each of them was as well-behaved and obedient as a tamed dog.

Millions of natives, under the shouts of Xingtian's brothers, joyfully began to destroy the poisonous mushrooms cultivated on the rotten wood piles everywhere. A large group of natives began to check their tribesmen, and one after another, strong men gathered together inside and outside the city.

Xingtian Carp would provide food to these indigenous tribes.

Thirteen large port cities and surrounding large plantations produce mountains of food every year. However, Xing Tianli can provide enough food for the millions of natives.

In return, these indigenous tribes will provide strong men to be used by Xing Tianli to fight.

These natives are primitive and uncivilized, but they are definitely not stupid.

Just seeing that they can reproduce comfortably in the jungle shows how great their potential is.

Moreover, they were able to make their own weapons such as bows and arrows, blowpipes, spears, and javelins. They could also build canoes, hunt wild beasts that were several times larger than themselves, and form armies of tens of thousands of people to go to war with other tribes.

It can be seen that they are not stupid.

As long as they are given a little training and equipped with enough weapons, they can become qualified fighters with their beast-like instincts that they have developed from growing and surviving in the jungle.

With modern firearms, killing is just a matter of pulling the trigger. These indigenous warriors, using the most primitive bows and arrows, can hit a fist-sized bird from dozens of steps away. When they carry precise modern weapons, how amazing their lethality can be?

And they are so pious, they are not like the Dongyun people who may betray at any time!
How many indigenous people are there in this jungle?
Ten billion?

Hundreds of billions?

Or more?

As long as there are enough weapons, it would be easy for Xing Tianli to arm an indigenous army of tens of millions of people!
More importantly, in Black Borneo, apart from the Xingtian brothers who possess extraordinary powers, no one can compete with these indigenous warriors in the jungle.

Groups of strong and cheerful men kept gathering.

In the city, Xing Tianli had already planted voodoo on all of Sophie's subordinates and controlled their life and death.

Sitting upright on a huge rock, Xing Tianli smiled confidently at Sophie: "Your life or death is not important to me. I kept you only because your words touched me."

"If you can't even do this little thing, you and your subordinates are completely useless."

"Guess, will I spare your lives?"

"A group of 'foreigners' who came from outside with bad intentions and are competing with our tribe for living space? Do you think I will be generous and keep you guys who may turn against me at any time?"

Xing Tianli smiled, took out the Qingmu Lingzhu, and tossed it gently to play with it.

Hundreds of sturdy natives, shouting in low voices, carried an altar made of gold and silver, about ten feet in diameter and several feet high, inlaid with a large number of gems and large crystals, and came to the center of the city with a grunt.

Sophie and all her subordinates gathered under the altar and began to sing melodious songs, like a group of clever birds, chanting graceful and melodious spells in very clear voices, and at the same time, following the mysterious sacrificial rituals, they worshiped the altar.

On the way here, when passing by the battlefields of the indigenous tribes, Sophie asked Xing Tianli to bring more than a thousand indigenous corpses, which were neatly stacked in front of the altar. As Sophie and others chanted spells, strands of blood flew into the air and spread rapidly along the intricate patterns on the altar.

Dusk falls.

The bright moon rises in the east.

When the moonlight shone on the altar, hazy shadows burst out from the large crystals inlaid on the altar.

Sophie stood up and bowed respectfully to Xing Tianli: "I have been preparing for this opportunity to sacrifice for a long time. Originally, I wanted to exchange it for a reward from my Lord, to improve my bloodline, and to completely suppress that bitch Maso."

The corner of Xing Tianli's eye twitched, he took a few steps back, and the Tongtian Yuling Banner swayed gently. Hundreds of thousands of armored soldiers and evil spirits flew out riding on the dark clouds and gloomy winds, forming a huge military formation around the altar.

Pieces of warship wreckage melted rapidly, and the majestic Primordial Qi flowed back and was hit by Xing Tianli into the 1,296 totem poles on the city wall. On the ancient totem poles, the ancient witch patterns suddenly lit up, and with a low roar, a mysterious atmosphere enveloped the entire city.

There are subtle whispers echoing in the void.

On the two mountain peaks, two bronze sacred trees emitted a faint glow. The bronze Golden Crow and Jade Toad, with their eyes flashing with a fierce light, locked onto Sophie's body from above.

"let's start."

Xing Tianli smiled and said, "I am not interested in your internal grievances. What I am interested in is that if you can help me get this kind of good stuff continuously, you are useful."

Xing Tianli tossed the Qingmu Lingzhu in his hand again: "Useful people can live longer. Useless people, once they die, they die. I will never show mercy to my enemies!"

Xing Tianli smiled coldly.

In his previous life, he might have shown mercy; but in this life, his body and soul have been gradually infected by the blood of Xingtian clan, and everything has begun to transform him into a qualified ancient wizard. How can he show mercy to his enemies?
The five-colored magical power is rippling in the body.

In the sky, five groups of five-colored thunderclouds were spaced a few miles apart, quietly arranged according to the five elements. The thunderclouds were more than ten feet in radius, in the shape of a Ganoderma lucidum, with five-colored lightning rolling faintly at the edges.

This is the 'Great Five Thunder Method', the authentic Taoist magical power to subdue demons.

As his cultivation continued to improve, Xing Tianli calculated that, apart from his physical strength, his magical powers could probably be comparable to those of an orthodox Taoist practitioner in the 'Spirit Realm' of his previous life.

His fundamental method is extremely sophisticated, and his true strength is definitely far beyond that of a cultivator in the Yuanshen realm. Coupled with his celestial soul-controlling magic power, the methods he can use are beyond the imagination of a cultivator in the Yuanshen realm.

The preset Great Five Thunder Method was also to prevent Sophie from playing tricks on him.

In this Dharma Ending Age, no matter how powerful your abilities are, you basically cannot use them. Xing Tianli is an anomaly in the world. Now that his cultivation has soared, he has enough confidence to deal with various challenges.

Sophie looked at Xing Tianli deeply.

She twisted her waist, sighed, knelt in front of the altar again, and recited prayers in a low voice.

Xing Tianli lightly waved the Tongtian Miaozhu, and his essence and blood circulated again. His cultivation level skyrocketed, and his magic power increased. There were one thousand and twenty-four sword beams around him, circling and dancing like fish.

The sharp sword light swirled in the air, and the invisible sword intent passed across the ground, leaving extremely fine cracks on the hard stone slabs.

In front of the altar, the bodies of the indigenous people burned and melted.

A subtle and faint breath slowly emanated from the distorted light and shadow on the altar. It seemed that there was a huge and extremely powerful creature, lazily opening its eyes and looking over here with great effort, separated by countless layers of dimensional barriers.

It didn't take much time. From the twisted and flickering light and shadow on the altar, a three-foot-long branch as thick as an arm with two thin branches hanging on it and nine emerald green leaves, surrounded by fluorescent light, like a branch carved from crystal, slowly emerged with difficulty.

An extremely fresh breath gushed out from the branch, as if a huge spring suddenly sprouted in the desert. The clear and cold spring water gushed up dozens of feet high, and the vast mist splashed everywhere, dispersing the heat in the air and washing away the dust in the air.

In the city which was fifty miles long and wide, all the trees, flowers and plants were stimulated by this breath and began to grow wildly.

Sophie and her subordinates all had flushed faces and their bodies twitched slightly as they took in big gulps of the scent emitted by the branch. Some of the weakest girls even fainted from the twitching.

The aura of Sophie and others present had increased to varying degrees.

This branch was so powerful for Sophie and her subordinates - it was hard to imagine how much Sophie could grow if she absorbed all the power of this branch alone.

"But this is the money to save your life!" Xing Tianli waved his sleeves and directly took the branch.

The purple ribbon Taoist robe was shaking violently, with a faint sign that it could not contain the branch and the internal space was about to collapse. Xing Tianli spent a lot of energy and urgently injected a large amount of Taichu Qi into it, and only then was he able to barely take the three-foot branch into it.

"Now, tell me, how can we get more good things from your master?"

After witnessing the entire process of Sophie's sacrifice and feeling the tremendous power contained in this branch, Xing Tianli suddenly had the urge to make a crazy effort to get some of Sophie's money.

"The flesh and blood of death, the wailing of the dead, as well as gold, silver, and precious stones of all colors!"

Sufi's answer was very direct: "As long as you please the Lord, His gifts will be beyond everyone's imagination..."

She looked at Xing Tianli pitifully: "The gift just now was earned by all the contributions I have accumulated after decades of hard work in this hellhole of Black Borneo. Dear Sir, can you..."

Xing Tianli ignored her.

Gold, silver, and various gemstones?
Oh, Xing Tianli doesn’t even have enough for himself. Gold and silver are top-grade resources for restoring mana and improving cultivation.

But 'the flesh of death, the wail of the dead'?

"Let's go back, taking these carefully selected indigenous warriors with us. Along the way, we will gather those indigenous tribes. Instead of letting them fight each other for inexplicable reasons, let their warriors fight for us!"
