I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Outside the Ancestral Temple.

Under Shen Can’s instructions, the Tier Four Great Witches and Tier Three Peak Wizards of the clan gathered together.

Over the past few years, the number of those in the Divine Treasure Realm within the clan has skyrocketed, and the number of Tier Four Great Witches has reached twenty-one.

At this moment, the number of clan wizards gathered here at the Ancestral Temple amounted to one thousand three hundred and thirty-seven.

Many wizards, led by the Tier Four Great Witches, stood on the open space outside the Ancestral Temple, bowing in unison to Shen Can.

"Everyone’s here?"

Shen Can walked out from the Ancestral Temple.

His Divine Sense enveloped the wizards present. The Blazing Flame Bo Division, over these years, has continuously seen the emergence of new Witch Arrays and Witch Artifacts, mainly relying on these pillars before him.

"Reporting to the Ancestral Temple Keeper, all the clansmen who have not ventured abroad and have the potential to advance to Great Witches have been summoned."

Huo Yunn spoke, handing Shen Can a jade scroll.

Within the jade scroll, besides the names of all the wizards present, there were also names of some Tier Three Peak Wizards who had not returned from outside the clan.

Included were details of each wizard’s breakthrough during their cultivation process, what they were researching within the clan, and their specialties.

However, some names were dim, indicating they had fallen, and some names were marked in red, indicating they were severely injured.

The processes of their demise and injuries were also documented.

After Shen Can reviewed it, he did not delay and began to teach the Witchcraft Dao Cultivation Technique he had deduced.

The clan’s wizards were all accomplished in cultivation, and naturally, they did not need the general Wizard Cultivation Method.

He taught the Five Elements Technique according to each individual’s cultivation attribute.

Many wizards formed a circle, surrounding Shen Can.

Shen Can randomly selected wizards with different attributes as teaching subjects, demonstrating the transmission of the technique before everyone.

A total of more than thirty wizards were selected to whom the five Witchcraft Dao Techniques were taught; then these thirty were tasked to teach ten, and ten to teach a hundred.

At nightfall, bonfires ignited on the square in front of the Ancestral Temple, with numerous wizards studying the techniques around the bonfire, verifying with each other. Where there was obscurity, Shen Can would explain on the spot.

"Master."

Seeing Shen Can just resolve a doubt for a clansman, while there was no one in front of him, Huo Yunn came forward.

"Sit."

Shen Can gestured for his disciple to sit beside him.

"Master, it’s like this. As you know, a few years ago, before the great battle at the East Marsh Camp in which Xiangliu was slain, our clan discovered a Small Yuan Vein deep within the waters over a thousand leagues into the Great Marsh.

For this, a location for Divine Treasure breakthroughs was constructed relying on the Yuan Vein.

Coincidentally, Xiangliu passed by, encountering the island where the Yuan Vein was located. The losses on the island were severe, including over a hundred Tier Three Wizards from our clan.

These wizards, led by the Tier Three Peak Yan Zeng and Lu Yu.

At that time, Yan Zeng’s wife was just at a critical moment of breaking through to the Divine Treasure; Xiangliu attacked, necessitating the activation of the Grand Array.

Yet, activating the Grand Array would deplete the Source Power in the Yuan Vein, causing Yan Zeng’s wife, due to the depletion of surrounding Source Power, to suffer chaotic and reverse blood flow, dying from the backlash.

In a critical moment, Yan Zeng’s energy, vitals, and spirit surged sharply to Tier Four, forcefully breaking into the auxiliary Witch Array for breakthroughs, rescuing his wife.

Subsequently, because Yan Zeng’s energy, vitals, and spirit burned out, he fell into a coma, and after awakening, became a cripple due to exhausted potential and destroyed Witch Vein.

Despite being crippled, Yan Zeng participated in the construction of many Witch Arrays within the clan and possesses extensive experience.

After his wounds healed, to prevent self-abandonment, I arranged for him to serve as the auxiliary maintenance artisan of the Star Attraction Array within the clan.

This time, when Master summoned the wizards, I happened to contact Yan Zeng, and he mentioned that while maintaining the Star Attraction Array, he seems to have inexplicably sensed the Power of Stars."

Huo Yunn relayed the matter to Shen Can, explaining that the Star Attraction Array is one of the most crucial Source Power enhancement arrays of the tribe, and maintenance is of utmost importance.

Previously within the clan, it was noted that clan members near the Star Attraction Array appeared much more agile, with some ordinary clansmen directly promoted to Witches.

Even children born to clansmen living near the Star Attraction Array see a several-fold increase in the ratio of practicing Witch Cultivation.

However, Yan Zeng is the first clansman to directly sense the Power of Stars.

Upon hearing Huo Yunn, Shen Can also became interested in Yan Zeng, as currently, the Star Technique within the clan is practiced only by avatars and the Star Turtle Race.

Among them, the few Star Turtles that successfully cultivated were somewhat different.

Like the Old Profound Turtle, whose shell patterns were innately mysterious, post cultivating the Power of Stars, the shell patterns underwent wondrous mutation, spawning natural arrays, which Shen Can has yet to comprehend.

After the Mountain-Moving Turtle Race cultivated the Power of Stars, it appeared as if they consumed the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill, with their bodies expanding rapidly. The Mountain-Moving Turtle with the highest Cultivation Realm was just at Tier Four Early Stage, yet its body was already two circles larger than the Old Profound Turtle.

But within the clan, the clansmen have always been estranged from the Power of Stars.

The profound Power of Stars seems aloof and lordly, unwilling to descend into the mundane world.

"Yan Zeng didn’t come?"

"No, he didn’t."

Huo Yunn continued, "If Master wishes to see him, I will immediately have him summoned."

"Tomorrow, for now, continue passing down the techniques."

Subsequently, Shen Can further understood Yan Zeng’s situation. At that time, many clansmen were injured facing Xiangliu, but Yan Zeng alone wasn’t harmed by Xiangliu; he erupted to save his wife, being like a small universe explosion.

His energy, vitals, and spirit reached their peak, exhausting his potential, gaining Tier Four strength momentarily, and quickly plummeting down.
