Chapter Seventy-Three: The Bleak Land and the Conflict of People and Horses (2nd Update)

If you continue to walk north in the territory of the Centaur Clan, you will have left the eastern shore of Gem Lake and come to the chaotic north shore of Gem Lake.

The ecological environment on the north shore of Gem Lake is even more inhospitable than that of the Centaur Clan, full of rocks and wasteland, and little green vegetation.

As a result, the area on the north shore of Gem Lake is known as a bleak place by the creatures there.

Further north of the bleak land stands a majestic Hengduan Mountain Range, which has been climbed over and seen to be a terrible desert with no life.

The Hengduan Mountains separate the area of the Baobao Lake Plain from the southern desert of the main continent, blocking most of the wind and sand, creating such a paradise.

Of course, most of the creatures of the Gem Lake have never crossed the Hengduan Mountains, let alone crossed the vast southern desert to visit the main continent.

In the same way, the same is true of the various powerful creatures of the main continent, who fight for territory in the main continent but never think of crossing the southern desert.

The Southern Desert has long been listed as one of the harsh environmental death zones in the main continent.

Jewel Lake is like a horizontal oval, the east and west banks are far apart, and the area is also small, and the north shore is connected to the continental shelf in a vast area.

As a result, the land area of the Bleak Lands on the north shore of the north of the Gem Lake is much larger than the east and west shores combined.

Among the east and west banks, the plain area on the east bank is blocked by the misty mountains, and it is the smallest lake shore in the three directions of Gem Lake.

But it is precisely because of the existence of the two huge mountain ranges of the Misty Mountains and the Hengduan Mountains that the Gem Lake is now not touched by the powerful races of the main continent, giving the Nightcrawler tribe a buffer opportunity to rise.

On the north shore of Baohu Lake, although the bleak land is barren, the area is vast enough, so there are many living creatures, and because of the environment, all of them are warlike and cruel by nature.

Those who are not warlike and cruel will not be able to survive well in a bleak place.

The creatures of the Bleak Lands have always coveted the dense forests of the East Coast, which are rich in vegetation and abundant materials, and it stands to reason that the East Coast, which is rich in resources, has long been involved in the invasion of the Bleak Lands.

It's a pity that at the junction of the east and north shores, there is a terrifyingly strong demigod-level creature standing in the way.

Yes, it was a living legend, the only demigod in the area of Gem Lake, whose name or even appearance was unknown.

For some reason, the demigod-level creature did not allow creatures from the North Shore to enter the East Shore by land.

If you take the waterway, the number of lord-level creatures in the Gem Lake will not be small.

It is also because of this that the East Coast has been able to maintain a relatively calm environment.

Although the demigod does not allow the creatures of the Bleak Lands to enter the forests of the East Coast, he is willing to let the creatures of the East Coast enter and leave freely.

The Caron centaurs were also a warlike race, and the vast area of the Desolate Lands was a vast group of creatures, so they often went in and out of the Northlands, and through the rules of the demigods, they could get enough supplies while burning and looting in the Northlands.

If you can't beat it, you can run back to your territory, with the majesty of a demigod, no Northland creature dares to enter the east coast without permission.

Raiding in the Northlands and entering ursa territory to hunt for food while the ursa were not looking, the Caron centaurs had an abundant source of food.

Similar to the Caron Centaurs, there are also the Setters located east of the Centaur Territory, whose territory is also a desolate part of the East Coast Jungle, and they also need to travel to the North to raid frequently.

Unlike the centaurs, the Centaurs are more mysterious and unpredictable, powerful and mysterious.

It can be seen from the fact that the Charon centaurs have never dared to make a move against this mysterious and powerful neighboring group.

It happened just a dozen days ago, before the rainstorm had fallen, and due to lack of food, Owori once again led the centaur warriors to the northlands to raid.

This time, Oldori, who came to raid with confidence, accidentally fell into an ambush by a lord in the Bleak Lands, and was seriously injured, even himself.

The Bleak Lands are vast, at least ten times the size of the East Coast.

In this land, the three overlord-level creatures and the six lord-level creatures occupy most of the land, and these nine forces are mixed with a large number of small race creatures.

The territory of the three overlord-level creatures, Ovori, did not dare to provoke, and his raiding targets were mainly set on the territory of the six lords of the Bleak Lands and various small races.

The target of Owori's raid this time is the territory of the nearest minotaur chieftain Kane.

The Centaur tribe has been raided many times by centaur warriors led by Owori, and centaurs are adept at running and coming and going like the wind.

The Minotaur warriors are no weaker than the centaurs when they fight head-to-head, but they always can't catch up when the centaurs spread their four legs and run away.

Under the repeated attacks, Kane's vigilance had already been raised to the highest level, and he ordered countless sentinels to be placed around the possible sneak attack route of Owori.

In the end, the Minotaur Chief Kane found out about Owore's sneak attack route this time.

Kane led the Minotaur warriors in an ambush in a hollow and killed a wave of centaurs in a fierce counterattack.

It was during this battle that the centaur Khan Ovori was cut in the chest by the long axe of the Minotaur chieftain and fled in a hurry.

A large amount of blood flowed from the wound soaked the Khan's skull, the symbol of the Khan that Owori hung on his chest.

Unbeknownst to Owori, a large amount of blood from the wound was slowly absorbed by the Karon skull.

That night, while the badly wounded and feverish Owori was sleeping soundly in his territory, a gray blurred figure claiming to be the ancestor of the Khajon came to Owori's dream.

The Grey Shadow, who claimed to be the spirit of the ancestors of the Charon, taught Owori a method of sacrifice.

If the sacrifice is successful, the Charon Skull will gain power and become a terrifying artifact that will help the Charon Centaur Clan expand its territory and grow the clan.

Ever since he was given this sacrifice, Owori has been unable to sleep at night, thinking every day about how to turn the Charon skull into a true artifact.

It's just that the sacrificial process is complicated, and the materials needed are even more difficult for Owori.

The main thing required for this method of sacrifice is a creature sacrifice that is at least a top-level lord, and it must be alive at the time of the sacrifice.

Now that the bear monster has been captured alive, one of the last and biggest puzzles of Owori's sacrifice to forge an artifact has been solved.

"As long as I get the artifact, the artifact is in my hand, and the entire eastern coast will fall into my hands!"

"When the time comes, the East Coast will be integrated, the strength of the clan will increase greatly, and the first one to be eliminated will be the Minotaur tribe!" Owori said fiercely, pointing at the hideous scar on his chest that had already scabbed.
