I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

This figure, without much thought, you can immediately tell who it is.

"Greetings, Elder Yongshan."

At this moment, Marquis Yongshan turned around and looked at Shen Can.

"It's good you could come."

A sentence similar in meaning to before sounded, and Marquis Yongshan continued, "The imprint I left in the Kui Ox Race has been activated, which means something unexpected happened to the imprint I left in the tribe."

Shen Can pondered for a moment and then spoke: "The Yongshan Bo Division has long been destroyed, and all that remains is the legend of Yongshan in Yongyi.

I only learned part of what happened eight thousand years ago from the Holy Envoy Race and Kui Drum."

"Back then, I left imprints in both the Yongshan Bo Division and the Kui Ox Race to guide future generations just in case."

"It seems there really was an issue with the Yongshan Bo Division."

The expression of Marquis Yongshan's imprint was momentarily dazed, seemingly pondering, but as an imprint's reflection, everything about him was just what Marquis Yongshan left back then.

"Back then, I hastily gathered thirty-two divisions of the Bo Division, securing seven Tier Six combatants, over three hundred Tier Five combatants, and allied races Kui Ox and Yinglong, assembling ten million War Masters, to attack the Profound Bird Race."

"The sudden uprising was because we learned that the Profound Bird was injured. To seize the opportunity, I decisively led the troops to conquer the Profound Bird Race.

"Unexpectedly, it still ended in failure. Tier Seven creatures possess control over the Power of Heaven and Earth. Even with a million elite troops and the battle banner obtained from the Huai Mountain Ancestral Land, resisting the might of Heaven and Earth proved somewhat inadequate."

"Yongshan's Sacrificial Artifact possessed Tier Six power. When I left, the clan still had Tier Five power to oversee, enough to suppress Yongyi and even flatten Dai Land."

"Thus, it seems that after I departed with the forces, something unexpected happened in Yongyi."

Marquis Yongshan remained silent for a moment, understanding that what had happened could no longer be undone.

Then he continued, "The human race on both sides of the Giant Mountain Range originated from Huai Mountain."

"Huai Mountain is north of Giant Peak."

"The human race, though small and weak, migrated and thrived like reeds in the Great Wilderness, and furthermore, the alien races captured us as slaves, bringing us to the four corners of the Great Wilderness, thereby enabling us to propagate everywhere."

"At the beginning of the Mountain and Sea Calendar, alien races captured our human race from Huai Mountain as slaves, and the slave boats fell to both sides of the Giant Mountain Range, allowing our human race to thrive and live on both sides of the mountain range."

"I once went north to Huai Mountain and obtained the teachings from my kin under the Huai Mountain Ancestral Tree."

"Huai Mountain is the origin of our Yongyi Human Race, but the people of Huai Mountain migrated step by step from the more distant central region of the Eastern Wilderness Southern Domain, where it is even further away."

"From Huai Mountain, I not only obtained the method of the battle banner but also encountered over ten kin willing to accompany me southward to Yongyi. I presume they all perished in battle with me in the old lair of the Profound Bird."

"Elder, the Profound Bird Race hasn't appeared for eight thousand years. Surely, Elder dealt a heavy blow to the Profound Bird back then, forcing it to hide and recuperate."

Shen Can took the opportunity to speak about the current situation of the Profound Bird, though he merely provided an objective description, for he also didn't know the current state of the Profound Bird.

It seemed the imprint of Marquis Yongshan before him was already independently existing from the original body, unable to sense it.

Marquis Yongshan lightly nodded, then continued: "Since I dealt a heavy blow to the Profound Bird back then, keeping it from appearing for eight thousand years.

Yet it is only now that you seek it out, with power barely at Tier Five Early Stage? Did other problems occur in Yongyi as well?"

"Yes, but it is transforming in a positive direction."

Marquis Yongshan sighed a bit, "I am powerless now; the rest is up to you."

Although merely an imprint's body, Marquis Yongshan's aura suddenly aged, as if exhausted from all he had held onto.

But only for a mere moment, Marquis Yongshan regained his momentum.

"As you said, the Profound Bird was heavily wounded by my forces, showing my method back then was effective.

Since the beginning of the Mountain and Sea Calendar, our human race has thrived in the Giant Mountain Range for over thirty thousand years.

During this time, untold numbers of humans became blood offerings to the Profound Bird.

The Profound Bird Race resided within Giant Mountain, soaring through the wilds, swooping down on human lands, and casually devouring humans.

With a mere opening of its mouth, it could devour an entire Bo Division, wantonly treating humans as playthings.

Later, human ancestors endured humiliation, offering sacrifices to the Profound Bird in exchange for not having the tribes wantonly taken as food, praying for a place to thrive.

However, as timepassed, some humans turned evil, willingly becoming the Profound Bird's servants, and in turn, began to oppress their kin.

When I was but a ranger, I stumbled upon a ranger's cave, which preserved a stone carving recording the origins of the Yongyi Human Race.

Following the record of this stone carving, through endless hardships, I miraculously found the Huai Mountain Ancestral Land.

In the Ancestral Land, I received the teachings, ascending to Tier Five, and met over ten comrades willing to journey south with me.

Thus, I returned to Yongyi, gathering scattered divisions and refugees, establishing the Yongshan Bo Division.

I concealed my strength, bided my time, waging war north and south, finding thirty-two like-minded Bo Divisions.

To pacify the Profound Bird, I showed more humility than the Holy Envoy Race who crawled under the Profound Bird's wings, sacrificing my own kin in offerings instead of them capturing humans to offer to the Profound Bird."

At this point, Marquis Yongshan trembled slightly.

"My son was brave."

"The Profound Bird's arrogance finally allowed me to seize the opportunity!"

"I found a peculiar poison at the base of Giant Peak Mountain, and the Tier Seven Profound Bird fell victim to it!"

"I decisively seized the opportunity, uniting the thirty-two Bo Divisions, with tens of millions of elite forces, striking at the Profound Bird Race."
