Chapter 2556: Chapter 2557: Diverting Disaster
Princess Xiu nodded with a smile, "Xiu’er knows now!"
At this moment, she was like a little girl, showing an innocent smile.
"By the way, how is the totem incarnation now?" Ye Luo suddenly asked.
At this moment, the Great Array had already enveloped the entire Qingxiu Peak, even if the Totem came, it wouldn’t be easy to break through, and naturally, Ye Luo was unaware of the situation outside.
"The situation is somewhat dire. Other tribes haven’t moved at all, and the Moonwater Tribe has become low-key, closing the Moonwater Palace and activating their protective array. It’s obvious that the incarnation is strengthening its power and will start the Moonwater Tribe’s path of expansion once it reaches peak strength!" Princess Xiu said solemnly.
"How long can our formation last?"
"This!" Princess Xiu frowned, "About three days, I suppose. After all, now that all the Moonwater Tribe people are up on the peak, along with so many cultivators from before, they need to survive. We can’t waste all resources on this Great Array!"
Ye Luo listened and fell silent.
"Moreover, the Moonwater Tribe hasn’t handed over the Space-Time Cavern to the Kunshan Tribe, and at this critical juncture, the Kunshan Tribe doesn’t dare to demand it either. You know, within the Space-Time Cavern, time is advantageous compared to outside. Once this Great Array loses its effectiveness, perhaps it will be when the totem incarnation re-emerges, and by then, it will surely first target our Qingxiu Peak!"
Having said that, a bitter smile appeared on her face.
As soon as that totem incarnation appeared, it could tear apart the ancestors with bare hands and chase them away. Once its power reached the peak, who could balance it?
Even though Ye Luo had the virus, it wasn’t easy to use!
How to make the incarnation hit by the virus was a difficult problem, and in this process, Ye Luo also had a chance to be infected!
Therefore, if there was another method, Ye Luo would definitely not choose to use the virus.
"Don’t be so pessimistic. The current situation is that everyone is on edge, and the totem incarnation may not necessarily target Qingxiu Peak. We can totally divert the trouble!" Ye Luo said with a smile.
"You mean!" Princess Xiu squinted her eyes.
...
In the next few days, the entire Space-Time Channel unexpectedly fell into silence, and tribes large and small were extraordinarily low-key, but each tribe deployed a large amount of defensive power.
Moreover, those mineral resources were given special protection.
Many major tribes had activated their protective formations, and those with totems had their totem power permeating the entire tribe, as if readying for the apocalypse.
These days, the Moonwater Tribe remained quiet, and there were no cultivators disturbing them.
The traces of the last battle still remained in front of the Moonwater Palace, or rather, no one went to repair them. Not a shadow of a single tribe member could be seen within the Moonwater Tribe, as if it had been wiped out.
However, a significant event did happen, involving the Moonwater Tribe, and that was the totem shedding that appeared in the Kunshan Tribe!
After all, the totem itself was a Totem Beast, and the characteristic of shedding remained.
Originally, the shed skin of a Totem Beast had astonishing defensive power and contained Dao Tempo, making it an unparalleled choice for creating armor! Especially the totem’s shed skin was extremely valuable.
However, the shedding of the totem was taboo! No one dared to covet the shed skin of a totem.
Moreover, the theft of the totem shedding would be a major issue for the entire tribe. Now that the Moonwater Tribe’s totem shedding appeared within the territory of the Kunshan Tribe, even without an appearance from the totem incarnation, the Moonwater Tribe would seek accountability; how much more so now.
Therefore, many tribes were already anticipating the Kunshan Tribe’s calamity.
Once that Moonwater Tribe’s totem incarnation appeared, its first stop would undoubtedly be the Kunshan Tribe.
This was entirely about the tribe and the totem’s dignity, and the Moonwater Tribe would not sit idly by.
"Damn it, who did this!"
In the hall of the Kunshan Tribe, the Clan Leader roared furiously.
At this critical moment, someone dared to target the totem shedding; wasn’t this courting disaster?
Even though the Moonwater Tribe now had few people, making their defense susceptible, which tribe would dare take advantage of that?
"Clan Leader, please calm down. The disciple who stole the totem shedding has already been executed, and after the investigation, it was found that the disciple was not of our tribe, so it’s certainly a setup!" An Elder said in a deep voice.
In fact, this matter was quite obvious, and the scheme wasn’t clever; on the contrary, it was rather crude!
However, with matters concerning the Moonwater Tribe’s dignity, even knowing it was a setup, even knowing it wasn’t the Kunshan Tribe’s doing, the fact that the shedding appeared in the Kunshan Tribe meant the Moonwater Tribe would have to hold them accountable.
"Damn it, have you found out who did it?" The Clan Leader shouted in anger.
"This... to report to the Clan Leader, there’s no trace whatsoever, and the Kunshan Tribe has many enemies; any opposing tribe could have done this!" The Elder said with a frown.
Upon hearing this, the Clan Leader sighed, "Since the damage is done, we can only discuss countermeasures. Fortunately, those three old codgers still owe me a Space-Time Cavern, and regarding this matter, those three should play a role!"
"The Clan Leader is right! However, the three elders of the Moonwater Tribe cannot be contacted at all!" The Elder replied.
"Of course, that totem incarnation is their lifeline, and they would definitely safeguard it. No worries, we can deliberate further after the incarnation is released. For now, enhancing our own power is paramount! How is the preparation of the ritual method going?"
Upon hearing these words, the elder below immediately became excited.
"To report to the Elder, providence favors our tribe, the ritual method is ready, just awaiting the command of the ancestor!"
"Good!" The ancestor immediately stood up, "Pass down the order, at noon tomorrow, activate the altar, and perform the totem ritual!"
On Qingxiu Peak, beneath the altar, many people were sitting cross-legged in cultivation.
This place had also become the residence of the higher-ups of Qingxiu Peak, and these days, Princess Xiu and the Ice Princess were almost always with Ye Luo, along with Qiong Yao; these three beauties accompanying Ye Luo lightened his mood considerably.
"Vice Clan Leader!"
"Uncle Wu!"
When they saw the Vice Clan Leader approaching, they immediately stood up and saluted.
"This old man, what are you giving me these formalities for? Like Ye Luo said, these formalities should be avoided if possible!" The Vice Clan Leader laughed.
Obviously, even though the outside was fraught with dangers, the brief peace had made everyone much calmer.
