Chapter 128: Totem Pole

The previous chapter was modified, and the one about the flag was taken away with Gu Yuecheng.

=======

The place where the claws stopped was still in the plains, but there was no fog here, only a few dozen small tents.

The tents were tents made of some kind of wood and plant branches, smeared with mud in the middle, and very rudimentary, even from a distance, you could smell a faint stench of decaying vegetation.

The tents were laid out in no order, and they were spread out in the middle of the wasteland, like a pile of rotten earth, without a sound, as silent as death.

In the middle of this tent, this tall pillar was erected, which resembled something like a totem pole, and was carved with all kinds of ornaments, mysterious and eerie.

As soon as Guo Xiaoshi saw the pillar, he knew what the dragon's blood coveted was, and it was obviously this.

Although he didn't know where the value of the pillar was, at this time, a voice in Guo Xiaoshi's body repeatedly told him: This thing is very good and important.

Quietly walking behind a boulder, Guo Xiaoshi looked at the camp tent from a distance, there was only a little light in the entire camp, it was the flag that was taken away with Gu Yuecheng, at this time Gu Yuecheng was thrown on the ground unconscious, and the flag was held by a strange humanoid monster.

The humanoid monster was more than twice as tall as a normal human, with a layer of brown bristles, and its human body had a beast head, the head of which was wolf-like, but with three eyes and horns, similar to the image of the indigenous spirit that had been seen in the Blackfoot Fortress before.

"It's a native native!"

When Guo Xiaoshi saw the humanoid monster, he knew that the claw that had captured Gu Yuecheng before came from it.

The humanoid monster didn't seem to be interested in Gu Yuecheng, and catching Gu Yuecheng was actually more for the flag, because he had been rummaging over and over for the flag, and seemed to be a little in love.

After Guo Xiaoshi looked at it for a while, his eyes quickly returned to the pillar, and he secretly thought about how to get his hands on the pillar.

Such a large pillar is obviously only able to fit in the space of the Altar of Time, and the space bracelet and space ring don't need to be thought about, the space is seriously insufficient.

If you want to use the Altar of Time to put the totem pole in it, you have to get close to it and actually "touch" the pillar...... However, judging from the current situation, it is obviously very dangerous to get close to the past, and it is not easy to deal with.

Guo Xiaoshi's heart turned several thoughts in a row, and before he could think about what to do, the situation suddenly took a sharp turn.

"Whew......"

Somehow, the humanoid monster suddenly raised its head and roared, and the sharp and sharp beast roar spread far away towards the four fields, piercing through the clouds like an arrow.

After a long roar, the humanoid monster fell silent again, standing straight under the totem pole, as if waiting for something.

Guo Xiaoshi's heart moved, and he fell to the ground for the first time, and at the same time quickly tossed some dust on his body, and then he didn't dare to move anymore.

After a while—

"Hiss Hiss ......"

The sharp roar of the soul beast was loud, gathering from all directions, making Guo Xiaoshi's heart jump suddenly, and he quickly shrank his head again.

In the blink of an eye, countless gray qi flew quickly towards the totem pole, and soon turned into a wolf-like fox after landing, densely surrounding the totem pole, with at least a thousand in number.

Guo Xiaoshi was shocked in his heart, it was only at this time that he really saw the appearance of soul beasts, it turned out that they all looked like this, some only had one head, some had two heads, and even three heads, fierce and weird, and they were not good at first glance.

"Whew!"

After a commotion, the humanoid monster roared again, and all the soul beasts suddenly fell silent, like a well-trained army, and there was no more chaos from before.

The humanoid monster walked around the totem pole, like the head of the earth inspecting the *army* team, and then he stood still, holding one hand high, and displayed the flag in his hand in front of all the soul beasts.

Those soul beasts were motionless, staring at the banner directly, and they didn't know what they could see, but under another roar of the humanoid monster, they also chirped one after another, and for a while, the sharp sound of "hiss" resounded through the heavens and the earth, piercing people's hearts.

"What the hell is this for?"

Listening to these also sharp voices, Guo Xiaoshi couldn't bear the discomfort in his heart, he was really puzzled, at this time, the matter of the totem pole had been temporarily put aside by him, and he was even more curious about what the humanoid monster was going to do.

In the next moment, all the soul beasts regained their quietness.

The humanoid monster turned to face the totem pole and slowly fell to his knees, and then he held the flag in both hands and screamed at the totem pole, sounding like he was singing and crying.

Just when Guo Xiaoshi's curiosity and doubts rose to the highest point, he saw that the totem pole actually moved.

A layer of light lit up from the top of the totem pole and slowly extended downwards until the root of the totem pole was completely enveloped in the blue-gray light.

Guo Xiaoshi began to understand a little, this is a religious ritual of the aborigines, and they are probably doing things like ancestor worship.

However, immediately after, a scene that surprised Guo Xiaoshi appeared: after the totem pole lit up, the light on the flag began to be pulled up by the blue and gray light of the totem pole, like a stream of water, quickly flowing out of the flag and injecting into the totem pole.

"Is this absorption?"

Guo Xiaoshi really understood at this time, his perception could reach out, and he sensed that the divine power on the flag was slowly weakening, which was obviously related to the fact that the light on the flag was constantly being "sucked away" by the totem pole.

As the light from the flag was sucked out bit by bit, the totem-pole's blue-gray glow became brighter and brighter...... Until the light on the flag finally disappeared completely, the blue-gray light of the totem pole finally reached its peak, and it was actually a little white, illuminating the surroundings white, which was extremely weird.

The humanoid monster let out a "whoop", casually threw the flag to the ground, as if abandoning his shoes, and then knelt down in front of the totem pole, not at all like the attitude he had before with full of affection.

"I see!"

Guo Xiaoshi could sense that all the divine power on the banner had disappeared, and it was obvious that under the absorption of the totem pole, the banner lost its power and became an ordinary item. And what the humanoid monster values is the power absorbed by the totem pole, which may be divine power.

After watching it for a while, Guo Xiaoshi finally saw the "specialness" of the totem pole, and vaguely understood why the dragon bloodline coveted it so much.

"How do you get your hands on it?"

Guo Xiaoshi's attention returned to this question, he didn't have the courage to move that totem pole in front of the humanoid monster and the thousand-headed soul beast, it was too dangerous...... Of course, if he could find a gap, it would be fine, and he was confident enough to flee quickly after a single blow.

So—

Where's the gap?
