I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 239 - 107: Dragon Tomb? The Human Pill Technique and Seeking the Bronze War Chariot
As the dragon bone shrank, the sound of clinking and clanking could be heard.
A copper ball and over a dozen copper-cast small wild beasts fell, including dragons, Simurghs, Kui Oxen, etc.
These things also exist in the Blazing Flame Tribe, but the children's little beast toys there are carved from wood and are just ordinary wild rabbits, Mountain-Splitting Kui, and other wild beasts.
The You Guang Little Loach wrapped in white light landed on top of the copper ball, with the white light emanating from its body enveloping the rest of the copper-cast small wild beasts.
At this moment, the light curtain barrier also shrank to less than half a foot in size, and the You Guang Little Loach opened its mouth and swallowed the barrier.
However, the copper-cast wild beast toys on the ground couldn't be collected, and they anxiously kept looking down at these copper-cast wild beast toys, then up at Shen Can.
In Shen Can's perception, the You Guang Little Loach was not a flesh-and-blood body, nor was it in a soul state, but rather resembled a spirit body.
As for why it felt somewhat close to him, he suspected it was due to the cultivation technique he practiced, which awakened it from dormancy.
...
Soon, the Tuo Lord crossed the Guimu River with the war chariot, quickly disappearing into the mountains and forests.
Why was the Tuo Lord pulling the chariot? It was mainly because the two Antelope Qilin Beasts that usually pulled it had fallen, unable to withstand the overwhelming pressure from the appearance of the Kui Ox.
This journey took them all the way west, entering the range of the Yanran Division.
Originally, Shen Can didn't plan to head to the Yanran Division's territory so soon, but things changed unexpectedly at the Dragon Landing Ferry when he took down a Tier Three Peak Xiaoyang Wizard there.
For his own safety, he had to run a bit farther away.
At this moment, the little loach was entwined around his wrist within the Profound Light Barrier, snoring peacefully, not treating him like a bad person at all.
Kui Ox, Cyan Simurgh, Golden Crow, Dragon Bear, Yinglong... Over a dozen exquisite copper-cast toys, each branded with a Witch Talisman.
Once the Witch Talismans are activated, these toys can enlarge to seven or eight zhang in size.
Other than that, they have no offensive capability, they're just bronze beast toys that can enlarge or shrink.
Outside the copper-cast toys was a small orb, resembling a machine ball, with its outer three layers hollow and a copper-cast core inside, covered with Witch Talismans.
No matter how you turn this copper ball, the core ball inside remains still.
Shen Can tried to input Water Element Witch Power into this copper ball, but it was futile; it seemed only that loach-like little guy could open it.
In the Blazing Flame Tribe, if some children unfortunately died young, their parents would bury them with their favorite toys and clothes from when they were alive.
This custom exists not only in the Blazing Flame Tribe but throughout the Human Race Tribe.
This made Shen Can think along these lines.
The copper ball and wild beast toys were beneath the dragon bone fossil, actually under the cover of the Profound Light Barrier.
There was dragon bone, dragon power, and burial companions.
Wild beasts don't have the Human Race's custom of being buried in coffins, but when war beasts that fought alongside Human Race Tribe die in battle, Human Race Martial Artists would collect them and bury them in a coffin.
Does this mean the Profound Light Barrier is actually a coffin?
Thinking of this, Shen Can looked at the little loach sleeping peacefully on his wrist.
Has it been resurrected?
The Guimu River is the largest river in Ji Land, its water flow abundant, capable of nourishing life.
Thinking it over, he still felt that the reason this little loach was attracted was due to his unwillingness, trying to swallow a mouthful using his full cultivation technique before leaving.
And the source of his cultivation technique came from the Yongshan Bo Division.
"Dragon Landing Ferry."
Shen Can muttered, recalling the legend that the Rain Master from the Yongshan Bo Division drank water here eight thousand years ago, wondering if there might be a connection.
After a moment, he collected his thoughts temporarily, as getting on the road was a priority.
The Tuo Lord wasn't suitable for pulling the chariot, but there was no choice; the two Antelope Qilin Beasts were now half-dead, lying on the war chariot.
Antelope Qilin Beasts combined with a Bronze War Chariot is the standard of the Luo River Bo Division.
Then, Shen Can focused his divine sense on the witch pouch he had taken.
This Tier Three Peak Xiaoyang Wizard's witch pouch didn't have strong restrictions, presumably because it thought no one could take its witch pouch.
The witch pouch space was over a dozen zhang, but there wasn't much inside.
A crisp clattering sound echoed as Shen Can took out a bone slip, a book made from human bones.
The entire book was covered in cracks, with the force exerted by the engraver going three-tenths into the bone, and even after a long time, a strong aura of blood and evil qi still lingered.
"Cultivating Humans", that was the name of this bone book. After roughly going through it, Shen Can frowned deeply.
This method was extremely bizarre, using humans as the media to eventually produce a Human Pill, best described as a Witchcraft Pill Technique.
The stronger the human used, the better the Human Pill produced.
At the end of the bone book, the author stated that using this pill method, a Tier Four Human Pill was successfully refined by luck, breaking into the Divine Treasure realm.
In theory, using this pill method, one could produce a Tier Five Human Pill using Divine Treasure as material, supplemented by Witch Medicine.
The book even expressed regret that due to the difficulty of capturing Tier Four humans, they couldn't produce a Tier Five Human Pill.
In Yongyi, performing 'alchemy' using humans as materials was done not only by the Alien Race but also by the Blood Witches and Blood Warriors.
Although the methods were different, the main purpose was the same: consuming to enhance cultivation.
Similarly, within the Human Race Tribes, some continually attempted using wild beasts and Xiaoyang in medicine.
Shen Can had previously used the Witch Talisman Array for blood refining Xiaoyang, and the Human Race in Ji Land also practiced it.
But in Ji Land, the probability of mental corruption exceeds half for those who improved their strength using Xiaoyang.
This more than half corruption probability made many tribes with some foundation refrain from using it for stability.
However, for small tribes vulnerable to Xiaoyang, despite having deep-seated blood feuds, they lacked the means for relevant refining rituals.
Occasionally, surviving remnants swallowed Xiaoyang whole, forcibly consuming blood qi, but such scattered efforts never gained momentum.
And in Shen Can's view, such circumstances are inherently tied to the overall atmosphere of Ji Land and Yongyi.
The Northern Lands, separated by Xiaoyang, are disregarded by the tribes of Ji Land as a barbarous region.
While the Northern Lands have fewer people and weaker tribes, they, in fact, preserve a relatively primitive Human Race spirit.
The spirit being reckless, just jumping in to fight, accepting death if needed.
As he meticulously put away the bone scroll, Shen Can found the Humans Pill Technique well-written, with ample annotations and detailed records of the refining process.
He could entirely consider changing materials, refining with Xiaoyang or wild beasts.
As Shen Can continued to search the witch pouch with his divine sense, he discovered that the items the deceased had collected were indeed top-grade, befitting a disciple of the Great Witch Priest.
The witchcraft he practiced was also among them, named "Water and Wood Mutual Study Contract", a fusion of water and wood witchcraft.
It recorded in detail the cultivation experiences of over a dozen Xiaoyang Wizards, from the first who developed this integrated method to the subsequent wizards pursuing and expanding the path.
Now it had reached the hands of the deceased and had been merged to the Tier Three Peak, only a step away from achieving Tier Four witchcraft.
Large tribes are different indeed, whereas Blazing Flame still has a long way to go to reach this level of development.
Subsequently, Shen Can took a handful of crystalline source stones from the witch pouch, crystals condensed from pure source power.
Even when the Blazing Flame Tribe migrated into the primordial vein of the valley, such things had already been birthed, but being small as beans, they weren't suitable for cultivation.
The quantity of source stones in the witch pouch was quite a lot, numbering more than four hundred. Despite using source stones for cultivation, this guy sought the dragon power within the water source power at the Dragon Landing Ferry instead.
"Atuo, find a hidden mountain range to conceal ourselves."
With a large amount of source stones, Shen Can had no intention of hoarding them away; his Witch Realm had long remained stagnant.
...
Dragon Landing Ferry.
A Xiaoyang, seething with intense evil qi, charged into the camp where only blood traces remained, thoroughly inspecting it inside and out.
It's over!
Muo Feilong finally confirmed that the Muo Ming Wizard, the Great Witch Priest's disciple, was dead.
Leaving the camp, it rushed southwards into the Heyang Ruins Market, and before entering the main hall, a roar echoed.
"All who returned from the Dragon Landing Ferry's camp are to be executed by dismemberment."
"All those stationed at Dragon Landing Ferry's camp, from the Myriarch to the ordinary clan soldiers, all their relatives will be exiled as slaves to the burial land!"
Soon, screams resounded in the city square, with wild beasts roaring, dragging Xiaoyang Race Soldiers with ropes, tearing them apart.
"Send the order, to all divisions and places, the garrisoned clan soldiers, find me the Bronze War Chariot!"
