Really, do you want a wife?

I’ll bring one for you tonight.

...

As three months passed, only twenty-three tribe members remained on the east bank of the river out of hundreds.

These twenty-three are deeply entrenched and have bloodshot eyes.

The others, able to remain clear-minded, have been assigned to tribe members training in the Giant Mountain Range after undergoing multiple assessments by the Martial Division.

As for whether there will be any occurrence of beast transformation during training, this is bound to happen.

Even normal tribe members sometimes have stray thoughts, not to mention those cultivating the Desolate Beast Battle Body.

When problems are discovered, they will be solved accordingly.

As for the remaining twenty-three tribe members, Shen Can did not immediately decide to kill them, since these tribe members, despite beastification, still obeyed him according to the instincts of a Wild Beast.

...

The situation regarding tribe members cultivating the Desolate Beast Battle Body was quickly relayed to Clan Leader Huo Chang.

Upon seeing that out of the four hundred and twenty tribe members who trained, nineteen had died tragically during cultivation, and twenty-three were still in a bewildered state, Huo Chang was initially stunned and then flipped through the Beast Hide Scroll to see the names of these forty-two tribe members.

"Great Elder, arrange for the families of these forty-two tribe members to be included in the compensation list."

"Prepare the things, and when I have time, I’ll visit these tribe members’ homes."

"Also, Acan said before, everyone should be sent to the Ancestral Temple with the specifications of having died in battle, and during the next sacrifice, it will be announced in front of the entire clan."

Although twenty-three have not died, in such a beastified state, it’s difficult to return home unless they recover someday.

"Success rate is ninety percent."

After reading through the data sent by the Martial Division thoroughly, it was already past midnight.

Huo Chang felt no trace of sleepiness, leaned on the stone couch, his eyes flickering with a blazing light.

Even if half of the remaining tribe members who cultivate the War Body are unstable, half of them can still remain.

After cultivating the War Body, combat power increases between two to four layers.

Of course, the lower the realm, the higher the increase; there are only three people with an increase of four layers, two at Celestial Vein Second Layer, and one at Celestial Vein Third Layer.

The number of people with a combat power increase of three layers is also not many, only four, the strongest being Tian Dan at Celestial Vein Sixth Layer, whose battle power after transforming into a Desolate Beast Battle Body rivals Celestial Vein Ninth Layer.

For Huo Chang, he would definitely choose two hundred tribe members with combat power between Celestial Vein Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth layers over four hundred below Celestial Vein Sixth Layer.

Over the years, Huo Chang has become thoroughly knowledgeable about the cultivation situation of martial artists within the tribe, especially Celestial Realm tribe members.

Among the middle-aged Celestial Vein Realm tribe members of his generation, aside from Huo Shan, none accumulated the Power of Seventy-Two Desolations to advance the Celestial Vein.

That is to say, the middle-aged tribe members, including himself, are almost impossible to achieve a Divine Treasure.

Now the Blazing Flame Tribe has not yet advanced to Bo Division; once it advances, Huo Chang plans to step down.

The status of a Celestial Vein Realm Bo Division Clan Leader is too low.

Even though he also cultivated the Desolate Beast Battle Body Technique, it was ultimately just a combat power increase secret technique.

He originally wanted to be the Clan Leader for a few more years, not out of greed for the position, but to lead the clan division for a few more years of development.

But plans cannot keep up with changes.

If not for the Blazing Flame Tribe’s lack of foundation, and suddenly incorporating more than three million tribe members, it should have achieved Bo Division long ago, and he should have stepped down long ago.

Once Ashan achieves Divine Treasure, the position of Clan Leader will be handed to Ashan.

After stepping down, Huo Chang has already considered his plans; he intends to become the Hall Master of the Martial Hall, cultivating the next generation for the tribe.

As for how Ashan will manage the tribe, it is actually simple; though Blazing Flame has numerous tribe members, elders can be fully promoted.

Regarding Huo Shan, Huo Chang has only one wish — let him cultivate the third generation Clan Leader properly.

Not that Huo Shan might not do well, but Huo Shan...

Thinking of Huo Shan’s personality, fighting is fine, but the rest... Thinking of this, Huo Chang rubbed his head.

Fortunately, there’s him, there’s Acan watching; Huo Shan only needs to focus on being a good Clan Chief, diligently cultivating, and being the strongest on the surface of Blazing Flame.

Huo Chang glanced at the Beast Hide Paper on the table, his eyes gradually growing resolute.

The Divine Treasure Realm is the foundation for establishing Bo divisions, Celestial Veins are the backbone of Bo divisions, and the number of Celestial Veins concerns the probability of Divine Treasure Martial Artists appearing within the clan.

Currently at Blazing Flame, there are quite a few Celestial Vein Realm tribe members, but all are Celestial Veins with no chance of a Divine Treasure.

Since there’s no chance for a Divine Treasure, why continue struggling with cultivation within Celestial Vein foresighted to reach its end.

He rolled up these Beast Hide Scrolls into a Witch Pouch, rose, and left the Clan Hall.

Outside the hall, the moon and stars were sparse; he walked all the way into the large hall nestled next to the Ancestral Temple.

Inside the large hall, embedded with a dozen Warm Light Jades, illuminating rows of wooden shelves emanating a faint woody fragrance.

There are more than a thousand wooden shelves here, filled with various Beast Hide Scrolls.

Huo Chang, well-acquainted, came to the innermost one, where the wooden shelf was inscribed with the characters ’Celestial Vein’.

He picked up the Beast Hide Scrolls resting on the shelf and walked into the Ancestral Temple.

Inside the Ancestral Temple.

Shen Can’s avatar sat cross-legged in the hall, stationed at the Ancestral Temple ever since Shen Can entered the valley.

"Acan."

The youth did not turn, slowly opened his eyes, revealing Huo Chang’s familiar Shen Can gaze.

With a ’crash,’ the Beast Hide Scrolls held by Huo Chang fell in front of Shen Can’s avatar.

"Acan, take a look, these are the materials of middle-aged Celestial Vein Martial Artists in the clan, except for Ashan; the rest have almost no chance of advancing to Divine Treasure."

"I think, since they all have no chance of advancing to Divine Treasure, further cultivation within Celestial Vein needn’t concern bodily harm so much."

"Naturally, it won’t constitute any premature actions hindering later cultivation, so next, arrange cultivation of the Desolate Beast Secret Technique."

"Take all the Witch Medicine from the Treasure House, use it up."

"Once depleted, go to the Giant Mountain Range to search, exchange with other Bo divisions outside."

If within the tribe, there are three hundred, no, two hundred with Celestial Vein Ninth Layer combat power, then what is Xiaoyang; we’ll directly storm into Xiaoyang’s hideout and slaughter them all."

At this moment, Huo Chang’s war intent was blazing, emitting sounds of surging blood.

"There are nearly three hundred tribe members in the valley with good conditions, who have already preliminarily resolved the beastification problem; arrange those with the strongest willpower to temporarily replace the Celestial Vein Martial Artists in the War Soldiers.

We rotate batches of Celestial Vein Realm tribe members into the valley to cultivate the Desolate Beast Battle Body Secret Technique.

Before cultivation, I will also inform the tribe members about the risks of cultivating this secret technique, that they might die, might be beastified, and will explain the purpose of these actions.

If they’re unwilling to cultivate, there’s no compulsion; those who miss the opportunity shouldn’t blame the clan for not providing chances in the future.

Those who cannot contribute to the Clan Division naturally should not enjoy the stable life provided by the clan."

Huo Chang’s actions, naturally inspired by Shen Can.

Beastified tribe members can be controlled by Acan, effectively mitigating future worries.

Otherwise, solely the settlement of beastified tribe members would involve some tribal power.

"The tribe members successfully cultivating are training in the Giant Mountain Range and still need a period of observation.

Currently, tribe members’ cultivation results are mostly good, paving the way for large-scale cultivation opportunities."

The avatar spoke words, sounding exactly like Shen Can’s true voice, even the facial expression on the countenance was similar.

"Moreover, the Giant Mountain Range indeed has abundant resources, various Witch Medicine resources are plentiful, strengthening tribe power by seeking resources in the Giant Mountain Range is the right path."

"Limit it to five years, gradually arranging for middle-aged Celestial Vein Martial Artists within the clan to cultivate the Desolate Beast Battle Body."

If there are dozens of tribe members with Celestial Vein Ninth Layer combat power, whether stationed at the tribe’s main camp or along the Guimu River shoreline town ruins market, it will greatly benefit the tribe."

Huo Chang nodded, "Five years’ time isn’t long."

He also understood that he couldn’t let all the tribe members rush into the valley to cultivate the Desolate Beast Battle Body Secret Technique.

Replacing a batch and cultivating a batch can maintain stability among the tribe members cultivating the War Body Secret Technique and ensure the stable development of the tribe."

"I heard that other divisions in Yongyi, each has a Clan Son as the strongest young generation in the tribe, a Divine Treasure Seed.

Our Blazing Flame had too short a development time, either wild mountain folk or remnants of a disbanded group.

After completing this matter, consolidating tribe power, the cultivation of the younger generation will need to be addressed."
