Judging by the aura fluctuations around this guy, he might be able to boost his combat power even without advancing to the Divine Treasure level.

What a disaster.

"I think you all better be sensible, Xiaoyang has already headed south. You must have heard this news.

They have wiped out several Bo Divisions in succession and even defeated the coalition tribes of the Yu Region.

If Xiaoyang attacks, do you think those useless ones outside can stop them?

Can you stop them?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the three Ancestor Luo Rivers changed.

At least the Human Race just wanted things from them, but Xiaoyang would definitely take their lives.

Buzz!

The Blood Vine rooted in the trickling Primordial Lake swayed gently, revealing a large area of white bones.

Numerous vine tendrils emerged from the water, slowly opening to reveal a White Jade Coffin only five feet in size.

Perhaps it had been submerged under the water for too long.

The surface of the White Jade Coffin was stained with blood threads like a spider web.

When the coffin opened, inside the trickling Spiritual Liquid was a youth.

Long-term immersion in the Spiritual Liquid had left the youth’s body wrinkled, as if soaked in water.

"This was left by the ancestor in those days."

The Luo River Clan Chief spoke, referring to the so-called ancestor who lived to be a thousand years old in the history of the Luo River Clan.

At this moment, Huo Shan also awoke.

He first glanced at the youth in the Jade Coffin, then said, "Acan said he wanted more, oh no, besides this living dead youth, I also want some Source Stones; give me twenty thousand pieces first."

Huo Shan earnestly requested, saying Acan wanted to establish a cultivation site in the valley to nurture a great Primordial Vein to try cultivating Treasure Medicine.

The Primordial Vein in the valley is a bit weak, and it’s uncertain if twenty thousand Source Stones will be enough.

"Are you crazy? The Ancestral Temple Keeper only asked for less than ten thousand!"

"Then ten thousand will do."

Huo Shan realized he might have asked for too much when Acan only asked for ten thousand.

"No!"

The Luo River Clan Chief loudly refused, "Do you think they’re stones on the side of the road? Our Source Stone Vein has long been mined until the later stages, hardly producing any Source Stones.

You want, Yanran also wants; even if we sold ourselves, there wouldn’t be that many Source Stones."

No Source Stones?

Huo Shan wasn’t pleased to hear that.

"There are no Source Stones, but our clan has a map from the North Expedition era of Yongshan, marked with the ancient Source Stone Vein in Ji Land. If you can find it, you will surely obtain a large number of Source Stones."

The Luo River Clan Chief pulled out an ancient beast skin map and tossed it to Huo Shan.

The map wasn’t fake.

However, this map was very old, having been old even when acquired eight thousand years ago.

Over the years, things change. If it could be found, the Luo River would have found it long ago; why wait until now?

...

Soon, a major upheaval occurred in the Luo River Bo Division.

Luo Feng became the new Clan Leader.

The remaining two Young Masters were directly bound and brought before Luo Feng.

In front of many clansmen, Luo Feng had them beaten to death by the Jiang Clan guards who had returned with him.

The Five Great Elders were all suppressed, along with their direct relatives being thrown into the clan’s prison.

The remaining collateral family members were all organized into slave soldiers. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

No one resisted during this time.

The ancestor’s decree was like a witchcraft spell, making everyone obedient.

Of course, it was also due to Huo Shan’s presence, who was regarded as a Divine Treasure Martial Artist.

...

When Shen Can received the news, he was patrolling the clan land to inspect the martial cultivation situation.

The older Martial Artists among the clan members naturally did not need to retrain, but some younger Martial Artists needed to retrain in the Five Pillars Skill.

Retooling with similar cultivation techniques was also a measure to promote the so-called ’Blazing Flame’.

Upon learning they obtained a living dead from Luo River, he directly instructed to have the living corpse brought before him.

In the small Jade Coffin, the youth seemed to be in a deep sleep.

The moment Shen Can sent his Divine Sense into the youth’s body, he surprisingly sensed that nine Celestial Veins had been opened within.

It seemed as though a mysterious aura was flowing within, keeping the body alive.

After careful sensing, Shen Can confirmed the Celestial Veins were forcefully opened through external power.

The method was rough, with the Celestial Veins full of cracks, not to mention some parts even being misaligned.

"Hmm!"

When Shen Can pried the youth’s eyelids open, the youth, who had been asleep for an unknown length of time, had eyes that shone bright like stars.
