Chapter 1056: The Witch Clan and the Bone Artifact

The appearance of the Wu people now seems to be not much different from the human race, at most they are taller and stronger. However, going back to the primeval times before antiquity, the ancestors of the Wu clan were all gods and demons such as bird-headed human bodies and beast-headed human bodies. And the ancestral witch down, starting from the Great Witch, has been very close to the human race, but the body is still relatively huge, and it still belongs to the "giant".

The changes in the image of the Wu clan most bluntly show the continuous decline of the Wu clan in the bloodline. The power of the Wu clan depends on the bloodline, and the decline of the bloodline brings about the decline of strength, and it can only retreat from the center of the stage to the edge step by step.

Of course, even such a witch clan is not completely devoid of merit. For example, the unique body refining method of the Wu clan is much stronger than the alchemy of the human race. No matter how much the human race refines its body, it is just "strengthening the body", and there will be a limit after all. However, the Wu clan's method of refining the body has no upper limit in theory, and it is even claimed that it can be sanctified in the flesh.

Even now, the bloodline of the Wu clan has declined, and the sanctification of the flesh has become a legend, but the heights that can be reached are still beyond the reach of the human race. The Tongtian-level powerhouses in the Wu Clan simply relied on their physical strength to compete with the Tongtian Realm cultivators. Those witches who have awakened their bloodline supernatural powers are like cultivators with Dao realms, and they are also difficult to match ordinary cultivators of the same level.

Regarding the level of strength, don't say why the Wu clan is also divided according to the realm of the human race, who calls the human race the protagonist of this world today. On the side of the human race, whether it is the witch clan, or the demon clan, or the dragon clan or even the demon outside the sky, they are all graded according to their own strength standards.

This is not to say that the human race loves to be lazy, but it makes sense that it is in it, after all, I want to know how strong you are, and the best reference is yourself. I am a cultivator of the Yuan Shen Realm, I know what the strength of the Yuan Shen Realm is, so if the other party is also at the Yuan Shen level, it means that the strength of the two of us is equal.

There are also wild beasts, you say that they are juvenile or grown-up, which does show their strength. However, what is the strength of the desolate beast in the juvenile stage, and who is higher and who is lower than the cultivation of his own Jindan Realm or Yuanying Realm? In the end, he still has to make a conversion, and he still has to use his own strength as a standard to see if he can deal with the other party.

Therefore, don't care about the witch clan, the demon clan, the dragon clan, etc., how do you judge your own strength realm, on the side of the human race, they are all at the foundation level, the Jindan level, the Yuanying level, and so on.

The Wu tribe that Ye Zan visited claimed to have the bloodline of the ancient ancestor Wu Zhurong, and the patriarch was a strong man at the level of Tongtian, and he had the bloodline power to resist fire. In addition to the patriarch, there are five elders, two of whom are Faxiang-level strength, and three are Yuanshen-level strength, which can be regarded as a relatively strong tribe.

Compared to the cultivator tribe that Ye Zan had visited before, this Wu tribe did not have an imbalance between men and women, but had a ratio sufficient to maintain the reproduction of the race. The reason is that the lifespan of the Wu Clan, unlike the Human Race, which needs to be increased by cultivation, is itself a so-called "immortal species", both men and women.

As for the human race, if you don't cultivate, you will only have a lifespan of less than a hundred years, and every time you improve a realm, you will increase some longevity, and if you don't improve, you can only wait for old age to die. Although it is not impossible for women to cultivate, it is true that it is more difficult than men to cultivate in terms of big data. This difficulty is not all due to qualifications, but mainly because women have been dragged down by some things, such as childbirth, which is the most hurtful to the root.

As a result, among the tribes of Terran cultivators, female cultivators are faced with a choice over male cultivators. Either it is to reproduce offspring, and the price is most likely that it is difficult to advance to the realm, so that it is impossible to increase longevity. Either that, they refuse to reproduce and increase their longevity through cultivation like male cultivators.

But no matter how you choose, such a tribe of Terran cultivators will eventually lead to the problem of an imbalance in the ratio of men and women. This is also the reason why cultivators are so high up and regard mundane mortals as ant-like beings, but they do not dare to destroy these ants at will. After all, relying only on cultivators, it is difficult for the human race to reproduce normally, and the root of everything is still in the worldly mortals.

After Ye Zan traded thousands of miles of gods and firearms with the Wu clan, he did not immediately leave here in a hurry, but tentatively asked the patriarch about the method of refining the body. After all, there are two little guys on his side, both of whom are more suitable for the method of refining the body, even if the method of the Wu clan cannot be directly applied, there will always be some reference value.

"Patriarch, I have some interest in the Wu Clan's body refining method and the production of bone weapons. I don't know, if there is a chance to ask the patriarch for a lesson or two?" Ye Zan asked the patriarch of the Wu clan very politely.

From the point of view of the habits of cultivators, it is definitely very offensive to ask a person about the cultivation method and the method of refining the magic weapon and magic weapon. However, unlike the Terrans, or the cultivators, the Wu Clan does not have the habit of cherishing these things. The reason is not that they are generous or stupid, but because of these things that others know and can't learn.

In the final analysis, the Wu Clan is still the Wu Clan, and there is a huge difference between them and the Human Race in terms of blood, even if they look similar now. It's like Homo sapiens, the ancestor of human beings in the technological world, and what Denisovans, Neanderthals, and the like exist in the same era, all of which may look similar, but in fact there are quite a few differences.

Therefore, even if the cultivator knows the Wu Clan's method of refining the body and knows how the bone weapon is made, it is in vain if he does not have the blood of the Wu Clan. In this case, the Wu clan doesn't dare to offend, as the protagonist of heaven and earth, the human race, then just let you go and learn, and I can't blame me for not learning.

"Fellow Daoists should know that my Wu Clan's body refining method is not suitable for you cultivators, right?" asked the Wu Clan Patriarch with great curiosity.

In fact, at least before the collapse of heaven and earth, due to the more communication between the Wu clan and the human race, the Wu clan's body refining method and bone weapon production could no longer be said to be a secret. It was only later that the cultivators were verified and knew that they could not use these things themselves, so they gradually stopped paying attention to these things.

In other words, although these special skills of the Wu clan may no longer be well known. However, cultivators at least know that those methods of the Wu clan cannot be learned, unless you have Wu blood. But the problem is that if you have the blood of the Wu Clan, you will not be able to learn from the Terrans, and you will not be able to become a cultivator.

"It is precisely because I know this that I take the liberty of asking the patriarch for advice, otherwise where would I have the face to say this. I don't want to cultivate, I just want to get some inspiration from it, maybe I can make a breakthrough on my own path. Ye Zan didn't mention the matter of his daughter and apprentice, but only said that he wanted to refer to it.

Some things are like this, he knows that it is useless for you to get them, so he will show you things without care. If you take it and use it, even if he doesn't lose anything here, he will probably hold it tightly and not show it to you. Therefore, Ye Zancai only said that he used it for reference, and did not mention that his daughter and apprentices might use it.

Of course, having said that, even if he got the Wu Clan's body refining method, Ye Zan would not directly throw it to the two little guys to learn. His words are not false, or will just use this as a reference, combined with the other information he obtained, to find a more suitable path for the two little guys.

"In this case, Daoyou has brought so many good things to my clan, how can the old man not even give this face. The Wu clan patriarch was really not stingy, and waved his hand to the person next to him to get something.

After a while, someone came in from outside, holding a stone slab in his arms, on which were densely engraved with the Wu script. Since the Wu clan does not cultivate the primordial gods, and does not have the power of divine consciousness and divine thoughts, it is naturally impossible to use jade slips or bone slips to record information like cultivators. In recording information, they still use a more primitive way, that is, they carve their own words on the stone slab.

"Fellow Daoist, it's not that the old man is stingy, it's just that this stone slab is the inheritance of my clan, there is no way to give it to Daoyou, you can only let Daoyou watch it here, please forgive me. The patriarch of the Wu clan said very politely, and his words were full of the tone of the human race.

"The patriarch is serious, I have to thank the patriarch for this!" Ye Zan hurriedly bowed his hand and took the stone slab.

The slate itself is not large, about the size of half a human body, and it is engraved with small characters. Of course, that character is the ancient character of the Wu clan, not the script of the human race, and the font is not a small block or something.

The patriarch of the Wu clan sat back to himself, looked at Ye Zan holding the stone slab, and asked curiously: "Wuji Daoyou, what is used on this stone slab is the ancient characters of my Wu clan, does Daoyou need to explain?"

Ye Zan also sat back in his seat, raised his eyes from the stone slab, and said with a little confidence in his modesty: "That's not necessary, I happen to have some understanding of the ancient characters of all ethnic groups, and I should be able to understand it." If there is something you really don't understand, you will ask the patriarch for advice, and then the patriarch will not be annoyed. ”

Ye Zan had never been in contact with the ancient characters of the Wu clan before, but this did not affect his understanding of the meaning on the slate. In fact, the ancient characters of the Wu clan, like the Great Dao runes, belong to the summary and interpretation of the laws of heaven and earth. Therefore, with Ye Zan realm cultivation, it is not very difficult to understand the ancient characters on the stone slab.

After Ye Zan responded to the Wu clan patriarch, his gaze returned to the stone slab, and while scanning the words on the stone slab, he had actually completed the work of taking photos and archiving them. In other words, even now, when the Wu clan patriarch took back the slate, Ye Zan's database also retained the information of the slate, and he could continue to analyze the content.

However, in order to avoid being misunderstood, Ye Zan did not return the slate immediately after the completion of the work of "photo archiving", but actually began to read the above contents.

What is recorded in the slate, in addition to the Wu clan's refining method, there is also the method of making Wu clan's bone artifacts mentioned by Ye Zan before. The method of refining the body, I can't see anything now, and if you want to really get it, you need to take the time to study it carefully later. Therefore, when Ye Zan was reading the slate, he focused his main energy on the more curious bone tool making.

Only the bone artifacts made by the Wu clan are called bone weapons, and the cultivators only use the bones of desolate beasts to refine magic weapons, and there is a fundamental difference between the two.

Magic weapons and magic weapons are essentially spells fixed on physical objects and cast when needed. So, whether you have wood, metal, stone or bone, as long as it meets this characteristic, it is a magic weapon or a magic weapon.

And the bone weapon of the Wu clan is to condense the essence and blood soul of living beings into a single bone, and this bone becomes a bone weapon. There are two ways to use the bone weapon, one is to directly cast the power in it, as if summoning a condensed creature to deliver a blow to the enemy. Another way to use it is to exert power on oneself and let oneself have the power of the beings that are condensed.

When the Wu clan makes bone weapons, they first find a way to toss the desolate beast or other creature as the target to a near-death state. Then use a special sacrificial ritual to forcibly condense the essence and blood soul of that creature with a certain characteristic of its own witch bloodline. Some will condense on the skull of living beings, and some will condense on the sternum of living beings, and there is no fixed choice, it depends on how to do it better.

After completing the ritual, the creature was like the whole thing was devoured by the bone, and it didn't need to be dissected by the Wu clan anymore, and it directly obtained the so-called bone weapon. In addition, bone artifacts do not need to be cultivated as often as magic weapons, but they can be strengthened by refining the same bone artifacts. For example, if you use a tiger to refine a bone weapon, and then you want to continuously increase the power of this bone weapon, you need to keep letting it "devour" other tiger bone weapons.

Of course, this "devouring" of bone artifacts is not without an upper limit, and the upper limit depends on its own quality. The more advanced the bone weapon, the higher the upper limit, and the strength can be increased by "devouring" more bone objects of the same type. And the low-level bone weapons, not only will their own strength not be strong, but they can't continue to improve like "gathering sand into a tower".

But then again, how rare is a high-grade bone tool, not to mention that it is required to be the same kind of bone tool. Therefore, even if it is "upgraded" by constantly devouring the same kind of bone artifact, it is difficult for anyone to do so in reality. This also means that the value of a truly top-notch bone weapon may not be worse than that of the best magic weapon.

Ye Zan finished reading the contents of the slate and returned the slate to the Wu clan patriarch, and the auxiliary chip had uploaded the information to the research center of the war fortress for analysis and research on the Wu clan's bone tools. He had also traded a few bone artifacts in the Moyi Domain before, but unfortunately they were all broken and incomplete "garbage", and the information he had researched was very limited, but it could be regarded as having a little research foundation. Now, combined with the content of the most original Wu Clan Inheritance Slate, maybe some results can really be studied.
