Chapter 3: When the Totem Awakens

Previous Chapter

The night is hazy, and the barren mountains are bleak.

The wind is windy, and the blood is thick.

In a small basin, despair is despair. The godless eyes embedded in the heads of the ox stared at the weak young man, hoping that the mysterious power hidden in him could lead the people out of the abyss of despair. That night, their strongest five tribesmen stopped breathing forever, and nearly a third of the Minotaur tribe was reduced to prayer for the liberation of the world, more than the catastrophe was gone.

So much so that when the six Terrans appeared before them, they knew nothing. Until someone coughed lightly, the remaining ten young and strong minotaurs looked back vigilantly. The others slowly closed their eyes.

Yue Chen smiled slightly, made a difficult comparison, and tried to explain that it was "overnight". The young demon clan looked ignorant, but there was an old man with silver hair who said a few words to the young man. The young man nodded, and was helped down the altar by the guards, and walked towards the group. The faint voice was slurred, and the words of Yue Chen and the others might have the same feeling when they listened to them.

Yue Chen and his entourage spent a lot of effort, just to show "overnight" and "goodwill". Fortunately, the old man of the demon clan had gone through wind and frost, half guessed and half doubted, temporarily believed in the alien race in front of him, and designated a dilapidated fence house for six people to live temporarily. Finally, Yue Chen and the others had a place to "live".

As the saying goes: People have words, and demons have demon words.

After three days, the six of them were able to communicate with the demon clan simply. Yue Chen and others even figured out the living habits of the Minotaur tribe. Compared with food, drinking water is the most difficult thing for these minotaurs. Every morning, four or five sturdy clansmen go hundreds of miles away to fetch water, which is only enough for the tribesmen to drink three times a day.

On this day, Yue Chen got up early in the morning and went to fetch water with the four minotaurs. I set off in the dark, and when I came back, it was already unitary time. Unexpectedly, the scorching heat was unbearable that day, and many elderly people and children were already thirsty. The water taken by one person and four minotaurs is barely enough to solve the urgent need.

A strong man with a minotaur smiled at Yue Chen and muttered, "Tomorrow, we have to continue!"

"Perhaps, tomorrow, the 'totem' divine power will descend on the world and give us strength!" Yue Chen nodded and said with a smile. He took out a gourd and drank it slowly, but his eyes were always scanning the more than sixty minotaurs.

"Senior brother, do you also believe this? Is there really such a thing as the 'totem' that the old cow said?" The end and the others also approached.

"This tribe is not simple!" Yue Chen said, "Do you still remember the Green Snake Heavenly Demon in the depths of the sea?"

"It's only been a few days, who doesn't remember? In Hongzhou, women and children have known about it for a long time!"

"When the first Heavenly Demon Emperor was dominant, the 'Green Snake' tribe and the 'Minotaur' tribe contributed the most. These two tribes were the first to be kicked out of the 'Heavenly Demon' tribe, the 'Snow Snake' tribe replaced the 'Green Snake' tribe, and the 'Burning Bear' tribe replaced the 'Minotaur' tribe. Since then, the two major heavenly demon tribes that were once famous have disappeared forever from the records of ancient books. There are only sporadic records in some demon classics. ”

"Senior Brother Yue, what did you mean by what you said to that cow man earlier?" he glared at him and said, "You are not a person who is a man of false promises!"

"Damn, you don't have to be smart where you can use it, can't you think about me there?" Yue Chen said.

"Seeing that Senior Brother said, Senior Brother Yue, you are wise, and people who are idle are not your opponents. Therefore, these two junior disciples came to try not to let my Maha Hall suffer. The end snorted, and said forcibly: "However, now it seems that these two of yours are probably also about the same effect." In fact, this time you only need to go to Zuzhou. Our Maha Hall was calculated by Ye Shuo's real people. ”

The six of them chatted, and the minotaur who had just drunk the water seemed to have replenished the mysterious power, and the previous malaise and decadence receded, and all of them became spiritual, and those children began to run and play.

"Dragon Immortal Grass?" Ba Le quietly pulled Yue Chen's shirt and looked at Yue Chen strangely.

"I'm a person who has no secrets, and it's really hard for everyone. Hehe!" Yue Chen said with a smile: "Before we leave, it's best not to let them know this secret. ”

Seeing that the minotaur was relieved, the six of them also felt relieved and a lot more relaxed. In that dull and depressing situation, even if there is a way to walk in the body, you can feel inexplicable tiredness. For the six people, what is even more bitter is that in this place where there is no aura, they can't cultivate at all, which is equivalent to a complete cessation of cultivation.

On this night, the fire in the basin was bright, and the laughter and laughter lasted for a long time.

The next day, Yue Chen and Lidu went to fetch water together. The four sturdy minotaurs, the hidden powerful power in their bodies faintly emanated, and they all walked like flying. If you really want to rely on walking, Yue Chen and Lidu are indeed powerless. The two of them basically trotted all the way. I kept complaining. On this day, it took two trips of water back and forth to take four hours.

That night, a young man and an old man came to the humble hedged house. Bale smiled and invited him into the house. Since the young man entered the house, he has been looking at Yue Chen.

The old man said: "He is our leader Sa Chonglou, and he has the most noble totem bloodline in the world. The old man's name is Saya, and he is the great priest of the shaman designated by the old patriarch. Yesterday, the totem divine power appeared, and our people regained the most powerful power in the world - the power of 'totem'. In three days' time, we're going to start conquering the periphery, so that they can 'return blood for blood.'" We hope you'll come along. ”

Yue Chen said: "We are originally the people who stayed overnight, and everything is subject to the arrangements of the patriarch and the old man. ”

Sa Chonglou said: "The water we have drunk in the past two days seems to have the spiritual power to awaken the 'totem' bloodline. It just so happened that you went to fetch water. As he spoke, he pointed at Yue Chen.

Yue Chen said: "I am inseparable from the four brothers. I wonder what the patriarch means by that?"

"The same is true for the chief and the chief lion, but it's weird!" said Sazhonglou, "I want to know which tribe you belong to?" ”

Yue Chen replied, "We are the clan of ants!"

"Terran?" Sa Chonglou and Saya exclaimed at the same time.

"I know that in the noble blood of your demon clan, intercourse with the ant clan is one of the most shameful things. Sometimes, it is better than sacrificing one's own life. However, judging from these five days of getting along, we still have a chance to become friends. Whether it is the nobility and glory of the past, or the destitude and vicissitudes of the present, at the moment of death, everything is like a floating cloud in the sky, and it will always be so ethereal and nothing. This is true of both the noble and the lowly. ”

Sa Chonglou said: "Five days ago, why didn't you kill us?"

"I can't bear it!" Ba Le blurted out, "In our human race, it's called 'compassion'!"

Sa Chonglou slowly stood up and walked in front of Yue Chen, who also stood up. Sa Chonglou stretched out his rough right hand, and after Yue Chen stretched out his right hand, the two palms were tightly clasped together.

"Thank you, reliable friend. Sa Chonglou said: "My mother said, 'There is nobility in the lowly, and there is dross in the noble'. I hope you are noble and I am not dross. ”

Yue Chen said: "The sages of our human race say 'benevolence and love'. The patriarch has a 'benevolent' heart that accommodates all things in heaven and earth, which I admire very much. ”

"'Benevolence and love'?" Sa Chonglou shook his head and said, "I don't understand, but this shouldn't be the belief that the noble demon clan has. ”

Sazhonglou let go of his clenched hand, walked out of the fence house with the high priest Saya, and disappeared into the night.

"Senior brother, this patriarch is quite smart. Ba Le rubbed his chin and said, "I always thought that the demon clan was a tribe with primitive barbaric power, and it didn't have any intelligence. ”

"The geniuses who emerge from barbarism are often the real 'children of destiny'. ”

The wind is blowing, and the cry is urgent.

Three strong minotaur youths rushed into the pig-headed army and headed straight for the middle-aged leader. Before the leader of the pig-headed people could react, he was captured alive by a powerful giant palm. The pig-headed man desperately rescued him, but he couldn't help the Minotaur's internal and external attacks. The leader of the pig-headed people was captured in front of Sazhonglou and forcibly knelt on the ground, facing the pig-headed tribe.

At this moment, the people of the Pig-headed tribe did not know what was happening. The tribe that had been nearly annexed five days earlier had captured its leader alive with only five brave warriors. And at this moment, they seemed to be more aware of the fate of the chief, and their own fate. Those desperate eyes once again entered the sight of Yue Chen and the others.

Sa Chonglou grabbed the neck of the leader of the pig-headed people with both hands, and with a "click", he actually twisted the head off alive, and the blood sprayed wildly. Sa Chonglou carried a bloody head, majestic, and inspected the pig-headed tribe. After a brief moment of rage, the pigs' heads bowed their heads. At that moment, it meant the disappearance of their tribe, it meant that they were completely annexed.

This is the fate of the demon tribe that respects blood. When the leader of the divine bloodline, whom they guarded with their lives, died, the tribe lost its meaning of existence. There are only two paths to choose from, to be killed or to be annexed.

Sa Chonglou followed Saya's advice and divided the Pig-Headed tribe into three parts. A part of the sturdy ones were led by the chieftain and became the guards of the Sazhong Tower. Part of it was led by the chief lion and was responsible for the almsgiving. Women, children, and children are managed by an old clansman, doing some odds.

When the war began, it was difficult to endure the loneliness of those who tasted the fruits of victory. In fifteen days in a row, Sa Chonglou led his elite troops to annex twelve demon tribes, large and small, expanding the population of the entire tribe to 970 people. The rarest thing is that there are 90 young warriors.

The army of minotaurs drove to a place called Crouching Tiger Forest. The chief came to report: five miles ahead, there is a sphere of influence called the Water Rhinoceros Clan. There are as many as 400 people in his clan, and they occupy a holy spirit stone mine.

Sa Chonglou immediately gave the order to attack. Take the lead and rush to the front.

Since the beginning of the war, Yue Chen and others have always stood by and never helped. There were only a few slightly more powerful tribes, and Yue Chen secretly used magic talismans to help. At this moment, watching the Minotaur Tribe slaughter the Water Rhino Tribe, Yue Chen couldn't help but shake his head.

"For the sake of resources, all the races of the world are the same. What kind of human race and demon race are there? ”
