I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Upstream, there are so many big fish, even two or three of Tier Three, such opportunities are not common.

Just like that, many Earth Ants fell face-first into their food bowls while eating fish stew.

Under the cover of night.

A group of Earth Ants were also lurking in the low-lying areas outside the big camp, waiting silently.

"Today is your chance for actual combat, go ahead."

Huo Chang emerged slowly in the darkness, speaking softly.

Suddenly, approximately over a thousand shadows rushed towards the big camp.

Outside the big camp, the busy Ant Slaves suddenly felt the ground tremble.

By the time they realized, they suddenly found Earth Ants appearing outside the camp.

Before they could figure out what was happening, someone was knocked aside by a violent force.

Some Ant Slaves were still puzzled about what was going on, how come the big camp’s Earth Ant lords hadn’t come out.

Inside the camp, some Earth Ants noticed something unusual since falling asleep while eating was quite abnormal.

However, in their eyes, it might have been an issue with the fish, not realizing the fish had been deliberately sent down.

But before they could take any action, a group of Earth Ants rushed into the camp from outside.

"They’re all the same..."

An Earth Ant from the Black Nourishing Lineage rushed to the gate, just opened his mouth, and his body was flung out, torn apart by a few sheep horns as he fell.

"It’s thrilling to fight amongst the same tribe!"

A branch of barely over two thousand, most of whom fell into a stupor, was easily taken down completely.

By the time dawn broke, the Ant Slaves outside the gate had been cleaned up, leaving large patches of bloodstains on the ground.

However, a group of new ’Ant Slaves’ was cleaning up, and inside the camp, apart from a seemingly reduced number of Earth Ants moving, nothing else seemed changed.

At midnight, more than 1,200 live Earth Ants and over 600 Earth Ant corpses were all loaded onto the flying ship and taken away.

Inside the main hall.

Clusters of soft dried grass stacked together, covered with thick hemp cloth, formed a nest.

In the nest, Tian Jing, appearing as an Earth Ant, lay sideways inside, feeling uncomfortable no matter how he adjusted.

"Pass it down, if anyone can’t help but change back to human form, stay inside the dwelling and don’t come out."

"Our next task is to infiltrate Yankong Mountain, coordinate with the Mountain Master, and wipe out the Earth Ants in Yankong Mountain."

Speaking of Yankong Mountain, we have to start with the East Marsh Soil Ants, all branched off from the East Marsh Soil Ants, compared to Yankong Mountain, the Black Nourishing Lineage isn’t even comparable to a toe.

Yankong Mountain has a Source Stone ore, which is also needed for the cultivation of Earth Ants.

A long time ago, East Marsh sent clansmen to occupy Yankong Mountain.

Later a change occurred, and the East Marsh Bloodline that occupied Yankong Mountain seemed to have learned from the Human Race to rely on the mountain and the ore for sustenance.

Leveraging Yankong Mountain’s vein, they ascended to Divine Treasure, then married into the bloodline of their northern neighbor, Atong Lineage, gaining Atong Lineage’s support, and officially started a conflict with the main vein.

At that time, the East Marsh and Atong Lineages fought over this matter, and it ended up escalating to the Ancestral Land.

The end result was that the East Marsh split off a branch of Yankong Mountain.

Now, the Yankong Mountain branch still has nearly over 200,000 tribesmen, becoming the most powerful branch among the remaining East Marsh descendants after the East Marsh main vein got eliminated.

Without the East Marsh main vein, Yankong Mountain had long sent messages to other branches of the same bloodline, declaring itself as the superior from now on.

The goal of taking down the Black Nourishing Lineage this time is to use its name to infiltrate Yankong Mountain and capture the branch in one fell swoop.

A branch tribe of over 200,000 Earth Ants, and only one Divine Treasure, with Star Mountain’s current strength, is enough to suppress it.

However, not causing excessive bloodshed in the process is the challenge.

Shen Can needs live Earth Ants, and Huo Chang thought, having been busy in Dai Land for so long, it’s just the opportunity to bring out the Martial Artists he had been training for a test run, serving as an initial evaluation.

That’s why he came up with this idea of killing many birds with one stone.

...

Blazing Flame Race Territory.

[The Sacrificial Master extracted 132 years of lifespan from a Tier Two Earth Ant]

...

[The Sacrificial Master extracted 107 years of lifespan from a Tier Two Earth Ant.]

...

After a busy session, a bloody scent permeated outside the Ancestral Temple, with Witch Runes lighting up, rolling into strands of wind that blew away the bloody smell.

Shen Can wiped the blood off the Simurgh Blade, and returned to the Ancestral Temple carrying the blood-filled Blood Vase.

Once again sensing the spirit of the Sacrificial Tripod Cauldron, the five Sacrificial Spirits scattered in the previous great battle still drifted like mist, impossible to awaken even with attempted sacrifices.

After taking a portion of Earth Ant meat, the remaining Earth Ants were quickly taken away for processing by the tribesmen.

And the clan’s Hunting Team also slowed down the hunting of Wild Beasts in the Giant Mountain Range.

Previously, the intention to target Earth Ants was partly because of the Giant Mountain Range.

The Giant Mountain Range contains Tier Five Wild Beasts, and understanding the technique required a significant amount of Wild Beast’s lifespan.

It’s not just one or two beasts, hunting too many might attract the attention of the Giant Mountain Range’s Tier Five Desolate Beast Lord.

If the Tier Five Wild Beast were to be drawn out, it would be a problem.

In comparison, starting with Earth Ants is better.

With the sacrifice complete, Shen Can walked out from the Ancestral Temple, and saw Huo Ning standing by the side.

"Ancestral Temple Keeper, in half a month, we plan to move on Yankong Mountain."

"Since Yankong Mountain is a mining area, to avoid drawing too much attention from the Earth Ants, once we take Yankong Mountain, we will have the Martial Artists who cultivate the Earth Ant Battle Body in Dai Land take over Yankong Mountain."
