I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Chapter 531: Chapter 220: Array of Ten Thousand Woods, Dai Land Borrows Source Stones (Part 4)

It can only slowly let the old Giant Wood expand in the future.

However, it might be for the best. If the river valley had been annexed to the outside clan land back then, there would be no chance now to risk everything against a Tier Five threat.

During the development of the tribe, no Bo Division has ever not migrated, especially when facing natural disasters, which necessitate finding a suitable environment for survival once again.

"I’ll go gather the tribesmen living in the river valley immediately."

Seeing the Giant Wood, Huo Yunn didn’t hesitate and immediately began to get busy.

After Huo Yunn left, Shen Can summoned Gui Rabbit, asking it to crush a few vibrant Treasure Medicine Pills that could make one appear spirited and vigorous; he wanted to feed them to the three heads.

It was nearing dawn.

The sky above the river valley suddenly reverberated with intense rumbling, the two Tri-Headed Race divine statues lit up, and fissures appeared in the void, with the outline of a Grotto Heaven manifesting above.

Back then, when the Tri-Headed Race took this Giant Wood into the Grotto Heaven, they had thought of rising again.

Besides serving as entrances to the Grotto Heaven, these two divine statues were also crucial for releasing the Giant Wood.

Of course, once the Giant Wood emerged from the Grotto Heaven, the entire Grotto Heaven would shatter completely.

Crack! Crack!

The tribesmen, already awakened by Huo Yunn, all looked up toward the sky.

Despite having been forewarned, some couldn’t help but widen their eyes and cover their mouths in shock.

At this moment, it felt as if the sky itself was splitting apart.

Tree roots, undulating like azure dragon scales, emerged from the fractured Grotto Heaven, spanning immensely wide areas.

When the Grotto Heaven shattered completely, ferocious winds swept out, causing the void to crackle in response.

The old tree instantly covered a vast area of a thousand miles of mountains and rivers, crashing down from the high heavens with a thunderous roar.

The entire river valley, along with the surrounding mountain ranges, roared as if the earth itself trembled, the countless tribesmen being jolted and shaken all over the place.

When the old tree fell, the Five Elements Spiritual Land, some Spirit Fields, and buildings conveniently landed in the gaps between the branches.

Then, the moment the old tree touched the earth, its roots seemed to come alive, burrowing rapidly into the depths, drawing the Earth Source Power from everywhere toward itself.

The Primordial Vein deep beneath the earth began to have torrents of Source Power withdrawn swiftly, as if the floodgates had been opened.

Roots like earth-bound dragons burrowed rapidly into the deep earth, replaced by saplings sprouting and growing instantly.

"Master, what kind of Spirit Wood is this?"

Huo Yunn stared at the spectacle before him in a mixture of awe and doubt.

Shen Can gently shook his head, for he had only seen the trunk of this tree stretching skyward in the remnants of the Tri-Headed Race’s scenes.

Giant Woods sprouted from the roots of these old trees, with vertical trunks like pillars and horizontal branches like beams.

The interwoven branches created multiple layers of canopies, like grand coverings stacked upon each other vertically from top to bottom.

However, this old tree had withered for far too long, now finding refreshing rain after a great drought, wildly absorbing the Primordial Vein of the Blazing Flame Race as if it were a Spiritual Spring.

"Stop!"

Shen Can landed at the base of the trunk and struck it once with his palm.

After striking it three times in succession, the old tree finally ceased its extraction of Source Power.

If not for the recent quaking of mountains and earth and the surging of soil and rocks, the tribesmen wouldn’t be able to tell that the roots of a Giant Wood spanning a thousand miles had delved directly into the deep earth.

Straight little trees burst forth, forming dense thickets.

The old tree indeed had Spiritual Wisdom, but it was not like the Little Dragon Fish’s intelligence; it was instead in an indistinct, not fully-formed state, acting on an instinct to seek fortune and avoid calamity by absorbing Source Power suitable for its growth.

It makes sense; if such a gigantic entity were so easily spiritualized, it would not merely be a Spirit Plant but rather some sort of powerful living being.

Shen Can inspected the Spiritual Land and the Primordial Vein, finding that except for the somewhat dim five-colored radiance on the Primordial Vein, the Five Elements Spiritual Land remained unaffected.

Moreover, at the Fire Spirit Land, the old tree instinctively avoided a large empty area.

"Master, I’ve understood the core of constructing this array: using the Primordial Vein as energy and continually converting the Power of Wood through the mutual generation of the Five Elements."

"Additionally, besides using the Primordial Vein as energy, tribesmen can also assist in the operation of the array, merely needing the creation of more Witch Array nodes."

Hearing this from Huo Yunn, Shen Can nodded.

The Array of Ten Thousand Woods he had redeveloped had, superficially, turned from Five Elements to Wood Element, though it wasn’t devoid of the Five Elements.

It simply transformed the overt Five Elements into converting other elements into the Power of Wood subtly.

Thus, any energy of metal, wood, water, fire, or earth could continually convert into the Power of Wood.

Essentially, this merged the previous five separate Five Elements Arrays into a unified one.

Moreover, control of the array also included the tribesmen.

Though a Tier Two Martial Artist is an ant in front of a Tier Five, ten thousand or even hundreds of thousands of Tier Two Martial Artists are similarly ants before a Tier Five.

But if these martial artists linked their powers together through the array? A powerful Witch Array is constructed from individual Witch Talisman units.

Every tribesman is a ’Vice Array Master’ who follows the ’Main Array Master’ in unison.

This time, Shen Can planned to let the tribesmen return, utilizing the Witch Array to form a collective whole to resist the Tier Five threat.

By leveraging the numbers, the tribesmen would supplement the Blazing Flame Race’s lack of high-powered strength.

As daylight broke, Flying Ships began to enter the river valley from beyond the mountains.

In the past few days, everyone has been dispersed.

Shen Can did this not only to prevent casualties but also to avoid having everyone captured to be used as leverage against him.
