I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself-Chapter 272 - 120: Advancing to Tier 4! (Qiu Yue)

This thing is truly bizarre.

He transformed into a Desolate Beast Battle Body state, but from bones to soul, he remained a human. Yet, these three appeared to have human bodies but had radically changed internally.

To put it precisely, they only had a human shape left.

"Stop, everything is negotiable." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Shen Can opened his palm and saw the Luo River Race Leader turned into a puddle of blood.

Amidst the blood, a dense network of tiny veins began to swell, gradually redrawing a human shape.

"Splat!"

Before it could form, Shen Can tightened his grip once more.

"Poof! Poof!"

After this happened three times, Shen Can flipped his palm, and the ’Luo River Race Leader’ in his palm fell down, splattering blood everywhere with a splat.

After it hit the ground, it took a long while for a very small part of the veins to emerge.

Overall, its aura, after being burned by the blood qi just now, decreased by about one-tenth.

"If you want the method to ascend to Tier Four, just say it outright, there’s no need for this fighting."

The Luo River Temple Keeper looked up at Shen Can and spoke, "We once gave it to Yann Wanyun, and he advanced to the Divine Treasure Realm because of it.

We are, after all, the Clan Elders of the Human Race Tribe; how could we not protect the heritage of the Human Race?"

"You aren’t even human, and yet you call yourselves the Clan Elders of the Human Race?"

Shen Can was somewhat speechless. How could these three old fellows accuse themselves of being monsters while feeling justified?

These three are even less human than myself.

They clearly have flesh and blood bodies, yet inside, they developed structures resembling Spirit Plants.

"Yes, yes, we are not human."

The Luo River Temple Keeper spoke, then continued, "As long as you swear by your ancestors that after advancing to the Divine Treasure Realm, you won’t trouble the Luo River Bo Division again, I’ll give you the Luo River method for ascending to the Divine Treasure Realm."

Seeing that Shen Can didn’t react, the Luo River Temple Keeper glanced at the still ’writhing’ Luo River Race Leader and gritted his teeth, saying, "We’re willing to offer a thousand Source Stones."

At this moment, Shen Can spoke, "I heard you also have Treasure Medicine?"

"Who said that? No, we don’t!"

The Great Elder of Luo River hurriedly spoke, only to feel a shadow fall over him as two giant fingers pinched him up.

His entire body surged with blood qi, trying to explode with power again but was immediately quashed.

"Ah!"

"I’m telling you, the Treasure Medicine is long gone, it was devoured by the Vine Master."

"Without Treasure Medicine, what’s the use for you?"

Saying this, Shen Can squeezed his palm, and with a ’poof,’ a mist of blood burst out from his palm.

He looked at the Luo River Temple Keeper on the ground.

"How much Blood Vine can three people divide? How about I help you refine these two to death, and you enjoy the entire Blood Vine alone?"

With these words, before the Luo River Temple Keeper could respond,

The ’writhing’ Luo River Race Leader on the ground suddenly convulsed violently, rapidly growing a head.

In the palm, the blood qi of the Luo River Great Elder, also rapidly formed a face.

"There is Treasure Medicine, there is Treasure Medicine."

...

With a ’poof,’ the Great Elder of Luo River fell from Shen Can’s hand onto the ground.

The three figures suddenly had a hint of wariness among them.

The regrouped Luo River Race Leader and Great Elder were entirely like two standing Blood Vines on the ground.

"Are there Source Stones?"

"Yes."

Soon, a sealed Treasure Medicine appeared in front of Shen Can, its entire body shimmering with blood light.

Besides that, there was a pile of various Source Stones.

The three Elder members of Luo River only wanted to get rid of this guy in front of them and directly offered nearly ten thousand Source Stones of various kinds.

"We didn’t take it by force, these Source Stones and Treasure Medicine were hidden under Jade Lake. Over time, they naturally got tainted with blood qi."

"And the method for advancing to Tier Four, if you fail, don’t bring us into it. Back then, when we advanced to the Divine Treasure Realm, we also nearly died."

The ascension method of the Luo River Bo Division is indeed much better than that of the Giant Wood Bo Division; it has a complete set of ascension steps, dividing the ascension process into two parts.

"You must swear by your ancestors, whether successful or not in advancing, you won’t return to trouble us."

"Back then, Yann Wanyun also made such a vow."

"We gift you the Ascension Method and a large amount of Source Stones; you mustn’t repay kindness with enmity."

...

The three old fellows each said something, just eager for Shen Can to leave quickly.

The fear generated by the Blood Vine was something that didn’t even happen when Yann Wanyun came back then.

After collecting everything, Shen Can swore as those three required. After advancing, he would absolutely not come back to take their lives.

After swearing, he turned around and sped away from the valley.

However, Shen Can did not leave directly but leapt onto the top of the valley, where he unleashed a torrent of Witch Power onto the Witch Talisman Spirit Ban.

"What are you doing?"

"You are so afraid of death; let me help you reinforce your defenses."

"Oh no!"

As the Witch Talismans flickered and changed rapidly, the expression on the Luo River Temple Keeper’s face changed drastically. He rushed to the Witch Talisman Spirit Ban, only to find that the bans were changing rapidly.

"The Black Water Profound Light Curtain; this is the Black Water Profound Light Curtain, a legacy of the Yongshan Division. You’ve derived the Kui Ox Divine Form, now you can perform Yongshan Division’s witchcraft. Who exactly are you?"

"It’s over; he’s going to trap us in this valley!"

"Damn it, didn’t you just swear by your ancestors?"

The three fellows cursed.

The Luo River Temple Keeper released his Divine Sense, trying to stop the Witch Talisman’s position changes, but he couldn’t keep up with the rapid flickering of the bans on the Witch Talismans.

"What exactly do you want!"

...

The roars of the three did not receive any response, and Shen Can had already left.

Only after swimming a thousand miles along the Luo River upstream did he return to human form.

The three old guys from the Luo River were, as expected, really weak beyond anticipation.

The only peculiar thing was that hidden Blood Vine.

He attempted to search for it but found it had truly vanished without a trace.

However, the Blood Vine couldn’t leave the valley; it just meant its hiding methods were impressive, eluding him for the time being.

Since he hadn’t found it in the short term, Shen Can didn’t linger long. His mission for this trip was now complete.

As for the three old guys of the Luo River Bo Division, he had indeed sworn but plenty of others hadn’t.

Such a good training ground is worth preserving for a long time.

Shen Can speculated that the Blood Vine’s strength was from occupying the power of the land.

As long as one could move mountains and fill seas, redirecting the Luo River, then the Blood Vine’s hiding power would surely be broken.

One person might not move mountains and fill seas, but an entire tribe could do it easily.

Following the Luo River downstream, he once again turned toward the Guimu River.

During the journey, Shen Can did not return to the Three Fire Tribe; instead, he traveled along the Guimu River’s source, crossing the Xiaoyang Race Territory, and entering the Giant Mountain Range.

The Blazing Flame Tribe had already prepared everything, including the continued capture of Sacrificial Beasts, ready for replenishment if the lifespan derived was insufficient.

However, Shen Can reckoned that he wouldn’t need that much; he had already accumulated six thousand years of lifespan, enough to derive the Tier-Breaking Technique.

...

Three months later.

Below the Ancestral Temple in the Blazing Flame Race Territory.

"Buzz!"

The transformed Secluded Cave Mansion was filled with various Five Elements Source Stones.

More than half of the boxes holding Witch Medicine had been opened and used.

Multicolored blood qi flowed around Shen Can, his entire body crystalline, with Beast Patterns appearing on his skin.

Inside him, the blood qi surged through nine Celestial Veins, gathering above the Dantian, forming a multicolored blood qi mass.

The blood qi mass rotated like a vortex, the Five Elements of Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, and Earth supporting each other.

With every breath, multicolored blood qi dripped from the vortex, dyeing the Dantian below into a multicolored hue.

Through the rendering of the multicolored hue, the entire area of the Dantian had been grasped entirely in Shen Can’s perception.

A day later.

Rumble!

Alongside rumbling sounds, Shen Can shuddered intensely, his entire body tingling from the inside out.

Inside the Dantian, with the fall of the Five Element blood qi vortex, countless web-like cracks emerged, rapidly spreading outwards.

As the cracks were about to break out of the Dantian, the multicolored blood qi surrounding it lit up, rapidly encasing the cracks, instantly halting the fracturing trend.
