I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Three Fire Race Hall.

Four figures were seated in the grand hall.

Shen Can, Huo Chang, Huo Ning, Yann Wanyun.

After the initial greetings, Shen Can spoke, "Yann Race Leader personally coming to my humble division brings great honor to us."

There was no other way; currently, the leader of the Three Fire Division is Huo Ning, and Huo Chang is a Clan Elder. Both of their powers are only Tier Three.

Yann Wanyun, upon entering the Clan Division and sensing Shen Can’s realm, immediately understood that this tribe was overseen by Shen Can from the shadows.

As for the presence of the Luo River Bo Division’s armor, riding beasts, and war chariots within the tribe, all at Tier Four, how could those old folks from Luo River dare not to give them?

In truth, if not for being entangled by the three-headed tattoo and unable to act freely, Yann Wanyun would also like to visit Luo River Bo Division more often.

"The reason for my visit is to request a favor."

Yann Wanyun took out a jade box from his bosom and gently placed it on the desk.

"When I first approached your division, I sensed an incredibly strong war intent, not something ordinary people could possess."

At this point, Yann Wanyun paused, then quickly continued, "I am not here to pry into your division’s secrets. I merely wish to leverage your division’s help to suppress the anomaly on my body."

Yann Wanyun did not hide anything. He knew that the more things are concealed, the more troublesome they become. A Tier Four Divine Treasure is already among Ji Land’s most powerful existences; there’s no need for so much concealment in actions.

If it can work, let it work; if not, think of another way.

Yann Wanyun’s visit did not surprise Shen Can. After all, the performance of the Three Fire Division has been sufficient, and perhaps it’s time for it to evolve into the Three Fire Bo Division?

Amidst the momentum of Xiaoyang’s southern conquest, the newly risen Three Fires naturally needed to collaborate with the Jishan and Yanran tribes.

What was unexpected was the speed at which Yann Wanyun arrived, stating his request for help right at the doorstep.

It wasn’t to combat Xiaoyang, but rather for his own situation.

Of course, Yann Wanyun’s personal condition bears the survival and death of countless tribes in Ji Land, so it’s not merely a personal issue.

Evidently, Yann Wanyun coming directly to the door signifies he has some understanding of the details behind the Three Fire Division. However, he decidedly came to verify them openly rather than investigate in secret, which would cause unnecessary trouble.

Shen Can did not say, "Does the Yann Race Leader trust me?"

Even though it was their first meeting, the previous battle reports had been sent; Yanran resisted Xiaoyang’s Mu Kang Branch army in the western Ji Land, and an initial tacit understanding had been reached.

Yann Wanyun came because he surely valued a certain ability of the Three Fire Division.

Under Shen Can’s gaze, Yann Wanyun removed his shirt, revealing the three-headed beast pattern on his chest and back.

As his blood energy circulated, the three-headed beast pattern seemed to come alive, moving around on his body, exuding an extraordinarily strange aura and a wailing sound.

"I’ve tried many methods; it seems only vast murderous war intent can suppress it."

Yann Wanyun contemplated and spoke, "The few elders in my race lack the strength; they could help relieve it initially, but it’s no longer effective."

"Whenever the tattoo activates, the other two blurred heads try to devour me."

"Once my human soul is consumed, I would become a puppet."

Inside the clan hall, Yann Wanyun’s words echoed continuously as he explained the origin of the strange tattoo thoroughly, including his speculations.

On the way, he had considered how much of this secret to disclose, but upon arriving and sensing the vast aura released by the Three Fire Ancestral Temple, he decided.

Such a powerful Sacrificial Spirit made him even more convinced that the Three Fire Division was related to the tribe that took the Residual Spirit from Xiaoyang’s Gufu Mountain.

If a tribe that used Xiaoyang captives for sacrifices, with a Sacrificial Spirit possessing immense power, cannot be trusted, then there would be no Human Race Tribe in Yongyi to believe in.

"I once had a premonition that perhaps I was the one to break the Xiaoyang and Human Race war, but I didn’t expect the Three Fire Division to rise so quickly."

...

The clan hall fell silent.

Yann Wanyun’s words had reason; if the Muo Yan Vein Master was indeed behind this, once Yann Wanyun became a puppet, the entire defensive line of the Human Race against Xiaoyang would collapse.

Shen Can circled around Yann Wanyun several times, carefully examining the black three-headed tattoo.

"This beast may have three heads, but there still has to be a main head, right?"

He pointed at the tattoo and asked Yann Wanyun, "Which of these two heads is the main one and which is secondary?"

In the three-headed tattoo, only one head showed Yann Wanyun’s face, while the other two were vague. But upon closer inspection, one could still distinguish differences.

One head was larger, seemingly with messy hair on top, while the other was smaller with a smooth top.

Yann Wanyun thought carefully and said, "This larger head should be the main one; every time it makes the first move, its devouring power is stronger than the other one by a factor of two."

"Yann Race Leader, please tell us about the circumstances when you acquired the mural. Was there any text on it?"

"Yes, it was similar to an entry-level secret technique."

Subsequently, Yann Wanyun narrated the entry-level secret technique.

"This secret technique should be paired with the engravings. At the time, there was a mysterious light on the mural, and after the light entered my body, the mural instantly shattered into powder."

Shen Can’s Divine Sense continued to envelop Yann Wanyun’s tattoo, observing every inch of the three-headed figure.

Human head, snake body, with three heads and a body covered in fine scales, outlining ambiguous runes.
