I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

This group of fellows’ devotion to the Holy Spirit has seeped into their bones, without even a glimpse of curiosity towards the Holy Spirit.

Half a day later.

A group of people gradually descended to the Bird’s Nest Altar and looked up at Shen Can, who was sitting cross-legged atop the altar.

Their expressions varied; some were indifferent, observing the broken Holy Envoy Race, clearly realizing their revered Holy Spirit must have met a dire fate.

Without the Holy Spirit and the Holy Envoy Race, they are no longer nurtured.

Yet then, recalling the divine statue seen within the Divine Hall, those eyes seemed to devour their very soul.

The Holy Spirit is not dead!

At this moment, Shen Can rose from the altar, slowly descending its stone steps.

"The Holy Spirit of the Holy Envoy Race is from the Profound Bird Race, the head bird is Tier Seven."

The voice echoed in the ears of every Divine Treasure Martial Artist.

"Tier Seven!"

"What?"

"Seven..."

Everyone was stunned. They had considered the possibility of the Holy Spirit being Tier Six, but never imagined it would be Tier Seven; this was beyond expectation.

"But the Holy Spirit suffered a severe injury eight thousand years ago."

A group of Divine Treasure Martial Artists listened attentively.

"It was severely wounded by Marquis Yongshan when he allied with various divisions."

"What?"

Someone couldn’t help but leap up; the news was too startling.

Marquis Yongshan was a renowned Tier Six powerhouse of Yongyi, under whom the Longbo Rain Master held great fame.

There weren’t many legends about Lord Yongshan; it was only known that he often convened alliances, but suddenly vanished without a trace.

Along with the Yongshan Bo Division, leaving only an empty shell, devoured by many divisions.

So even for eight thousand years, the whereabouts of Marquis Yongshan remained a mystery.

Unexpectedly, he had gone to battle the Profound Bird.

"Eight thousand years ago, the Profound Bird dominated the north and south of the Giant Mountain Range, the Human Race served as its blood food, even forcing Marquis Yongshan to offer his own child to be Profound Bird’s blood food.

From the Holy Envoy Race’s records, the matters of the Hunting Sacrificial Envoy and Spirit Shepherd are noted.

Even though the Profound Bird was severely wounded by Marquis Yongshan.

For eight thousand years, the Hunting Sacrificial Envoy still captured Divine Treasure every two hundred years in Yongyi, to sacrifice to the wounded ’Holy Spirit’. Among you, some divisions with a long heritage likely had ancestors taken by the Holy Envoy Race’s Hunting Sacrificial Envoy for sacrifice.

And the Holy Envoy Race’s Spirit Shepherd would routinely patrol Yongyi, delivering information about this Yongyi to the Holy Spirit.

This clearly reveals that the severely wounded Holy Spirit constantly watches over Yongyi, and once the Holy Spirit awakens, the first to be annihilated would be the Yongyi Human Race!"

"Ah!"

Listening to Shen Can’s narration, many couldn’t remain seated.

For a Tier Seven Profound Bird, the destruction of Yongyi is a mere flick of the finger.

Sitting at home, disaster strikes from above?

Someone quickly unraveled the causal relationship, the Profound Bird Saint Spirit nurtured the Human Race as food, eight thousand years ago, Marquis Yongshan vanished because he went to fight the Profound Bird.

Furthermore, Marquis severely wounded the Profound Bird, causing it to remain dormant for eight thousand years.

In an instant, some fell silent, while others were agitated.

Those silent could only feel what could be called an unexpected shock!

Just moments ago, angered by being nurtured, little did they expect even more terrifying matters.

Tier Seven Profound Bird!

By heaven, even in dreams, he wouldn’t dare conjure such a formidable enemy.

Among the crowd, Lord Lingyu lowered his head, inwardly griping.

Blazing Flame is Tier Five, making him bow his head; one can’t imagine how powerful Tier Seven would be.

Why engage the Profound Bird if it couldn’t be defeated, leaving trouble for the present?

This thought wasn’t unique; many, like Lord Lingyu, had no objection to fighting the Profound Bird, but failing to kill it, instead leaving behind a problem.

Who can resolve this?

Isn’t this obviously waiting for doom?

Offering some blood food is better than clan extermination!

It can be imagined, once the Profound Bird awakens, Yongyi would be plowed three feet deep, withered grass through fire, stones through blades, the dignity of Tier Seven would surely be cleansed with the blood of countless humans.

’Holy Envoy Race sacrificed the Tier Seven Saint Spirit, even birthing Tier Six within their race, despite decline, there remains Tier Five to oversee...’

Lord Xia Shan’s mind surged, quickly suppressing numerous thoughts.

At this moment, the minds of various Lords changed rapidly, with expressions of worry, surprise, and bewilderment, seemingly not yet reacting.

"Marquis actually went to battle the Tier Seven Profound Bird for the Yongyi Human Race, lamenting our descendants’ incompetence, not only failing to inherit the division’s legacy, but allowing much of the territory Marquis conquered to be eroded by the Huantou Race!"

Elder Lord Changhuan sighed, "Why didn’t Marquis leave a last will before departure, leaving Yongyi to waste eight thousand years, with internal struggles among the divisions."

Changhuan’s words were something Shen Can had speculated about; after Marquis Yongshan severely wounded the Profound Bird, the Profound Bird likely set a trap.

Otherwise, the affairs of the Marquis fighting the Profound Bird wouldn’t be so tightly sealed in Yongyi.

Not to mention, even the Holy Envoy Race, the loyal henchman of the Profound Bird Saint Spirit, didn’t know.

If Yongyi didn’t know, that’s one thing, but the Holy Envoy Race should be aware.

Yet, the Holy Envoy Race’s record journals were quite vague regarding the events of eight thousand years ago.

Surely someone erased the relevant records.

Unfortunately, the time had passed too long; Shen Can even suspected the various divisions of Yongyi fought over Yongshan Bo Division due to someone’s sabotage.

Causing humans to slaughter humans; this tactic was extremely vicious.

The resulting consequences impacting eight thousand years.
