The Era of Gods-Chapter 448 - : Ambition of the True Body
Chapter 448: Chapter 448: Ambition of the True Body
“`
According to Luo, the former leader of the second legion of the Primitive God Kingdom that evolved from the Vine Snake Tribe:
“At that time, I felt as if I were in a furnace, with the strength emitted by the great Primitive God burning every inch of my muscles. In that moment, I thought I was about to return to my ancestors’ embrace. But before meeting the ancestors, I heard the great Primitive God’s voice.”
“Human, you have trespassed on my territory.”
Luo slowly raised his head and saw a noble existence hovering in the air, emitting a terrifying aura that took his breath away. At that moment, he was struck by a moment of epiphany and lowered his head, uttering that crucial phrase:
“Great being, the Vine Snake Tribe is willing to offer our worship to you, in hopes of your protection!”
In that moment, Luo felt as though the air itself had solidified.
He agonized in anxious anticipation for what felt like an eternity before he heard a voice that at the time seemed like heavenly music:
“Agreed!”
And then, the tribe was saved.
The great Primitive God sent his Clan and their symbiotic races to defeat the pursuing Poison Lizard Tribe with overwhelming force, rescuing the remaining members of the Vine Snake Tribe.
Although the witches and totem warriors of the Poison Lizard Tribe were formidable, and their strange poison curses terrifying, they were utterly powerless against the Supreme Nagas. Ten Supreme Nagas charged through the battlefield, carving a swath through the enemy, killing off a significant number of their warrior-guards and witches, forcing the rest to flee in disarray.
Subsequently, just as Lin Xiao and his girlfriend had planned, the saved members of the Vine Snake Tribe took the Primitive God and His Clan as their masters and settled down not far from the base to recuperate and prosper.
Lin Xiao settled the Vine Snake Tribe near the base and dispatched the Star Spirit Mage Group to move mountains and fill seas, crudely forging a gigantic city shell—essentially a ring of city walls encircling a large area, with the rest left to their own construction.
The Vine Snake Tribe lived on one side, and the base on the other.
Worth mentioning is that he had some members of the Marine Corps disguised as Natives, who had been subdued early on, infiltrate the Vine Snake Tribe to surreptitiously gather all kinds of information.
There were many things he wanted to know but felt uneasy to ask directly, after all, he was disguised as a powerful and superior race. In this world, it was common for Indigenous Humans to submit to higher races and mighty beings. He had never heard of these totems or Guardians making special efforts to understand the situation of human Natives, and for fear of startling the snake, he dared not ask directly.
The members of the Marine Corps were all humans and blended into the Natives without a hitch.
Lin Xiao was very interested in the various power systems possessed by the Natives and their totems and land spirits. Furthermore, since he accepted the worship of the Vine Snake Tribe, there would inevitably be a conflict with the Poison Lizard Tribe, which possesses totems and Guardians. It would be advantageous to learn more to prepare for future confrontations.
The weakest members of the Marine Corps were at Rank 6 Transcendent Level, corresponding to the strong totem warriors of the Vine Snake Tribe, of which there were only a dozen or so in the entire tribe.
They easily blended into the Natives and attained high positions.
In primitive societies, tribes often waged war against each other. Battles were brutal during conflicts, but once an adversary was thoroughly defeated, enmity vanished, and the conquered tribe would easily integrate into another, considering themselves a part of it, and were willing to die in defense of their new tribe.
For example, if the Poison Lizard Tribe had completely defeated the Vine Snake Tribe, any survivors would fully assimilate into the Poison Lizard Tribe, erasing past grievances.
Modern people find this concept hard to comprehend, but it was normal in primitive times.
So…
Inside Flying Snake No., Lin Xiao was standing at a table with his girlfriend and Feather Snake, looking at a rough map.
This was a map of Snake Lizard Island obtained from the Vine Snake Tribe. Because there were so many giant snakes and lizards on the island, it was called Snake Lizard Island by the Indigenous Tribes.
This map was brought by the Vine Snake Tribe before they split up. It was not very accurate but marked different tribes and the territories of strong beings explored by tribe members. It was cross-referenced with the map drawn by the exploration team sent from the base to produce a new map.
According to the map, there were two large tribal groups on the entire Snake Lizard Island.
One was the Snake Tribe, and the other was the Lizard Tribe, each worshipping the snakes and lizards of Snake Lizard Island, respectively.
The Vine Snake Tribe was a branch that had split from the Snake Tribe, and the group that had attacked them was a branch of the Lizard Tribe.
Snakes and lizards on this island were archenemies, stemming from the totems of the two main tribes—both are strong totems, one a mighty snake and the other a mighty lizard.
In Lin Xiao’s words, it was a feud between a powerful serpent Demigod and a lizard Demigod.
The vast Snake Lizard Island was divided in two, with the main tribes of snakes and lizards located at the northern and southern ends of the island. Because of abundant nearby food, and some animals specifically bred, as well as the proximity to the sea for fishing, they each supported populations of tens of thousands.
There were also seven or eight smaller branches that had split from the main tribes dotted around this archipelago, with a few on the main island and others on smaller islands nearby.
After periods of growth, these branches would further divide when the population became too large to sustain.
All told, it was estimated that there were close to a million people among the snake and lizard tribes of the archipelago.
This number of people wouldn’t even equal a small modern city, but in the nascent societies at the dawn of civilization, this was already a very large tribal group.
“Both of these are threats!”
Lin Xiao pointed to the locations of the primary snake and lizard tribes at the south and north of Snake Lizard Island and turned to his girlfriend.
Shen Yuexin understood him instantly and nodded as she said:
“`
“We need to clear them out, at least before the construction of the Spatial Waymarker, we must eliminate these two main tribes and unify all the tribes on the archipelago.”
Once the Spatial Waymarker is established, and we face the Plane Will’s rejection, we will surely encounter various dangers and powerful enemies. If these two tribes are not eradicated, they will become enemies when the time comes, so we must eliminate potential foes before establishing the Spatial Waymarker.
At this point, his girlfriend remarked:
“We can slowly conquer the nearby Lizard Tribes in the name of the Vine Snake Tribe and grow stronger gradually. Then, we can start to assimilate the other tribes. Once we have sufficient strength, we can move against the two main tribes.”
“That is inevitable.”
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment before saying to Flying Feather:
“Your people need to seize control of the Vine Snake Tribe quickly, it’s best to integrate proactively, allowing your subordinates to try and gain the Totem Power to become a Totem Warrior. Only then can you rightfully take control of the tribe.”
He then looked towards the captain of the Mage Squad, Feather Snake, and said:
“Let your people actively learn various witchcraft. It’s easy for official mages to master it, then select some talented individuals from the tribe to instruct. That way, when they grow up, they will be your direct subordinates.”
“Moreover, we need a unique style of totem, one that is different from the snake and lizard totems.”
He turned to his girlfriend and spoke earnestly:
“To unify Snake Lizard Island and defeat the snake and lizard, we must eliminate the influence of these two powerful totems. The best way is to create a new totem stronger than both the snake and lizard totems.”
“Do you have an idea already?”
Lin Xiao nodded and said:
“Of course, what do you think about the Asura Naga?”
His girlfriend expressed surprise:
“You want to use the Asura Naga as a template?”
“Certainly, my current form is that of the Asura Naga. If the Vine Snake Tribe grows strong and I become a totem, my Totem Warriors will naturally be based on my form. I certainly can’t still use the snake or lizard totem, can I?”
“Of course, that makes sense, but what I mean is,” she explained:
“If you’re using the Asura Naga as a template for Totem Warriors, where will you find so much Big Nagas Blood Essence to create the Totem Warriors?”
Lin Xiao laughed and said:
“Who said I need to use pure blood essence?”
“I never said I’d use pure Big Nagas Blood Essence. Even diluted essence works, although it’s a bit less potent. But, after all, Asura Naga is a Legendary Being. Even if one part of blood essence is diluted tenfold, the quality won’t be too bad; it will be at least a sub-legendary level, which is more than enough for a native.”
“But still, that wouldn’t be enough. You only have thirty Asura Nagas here, and drawing blood from them affects both their strength and lifespan; you can’t do that frequently. When the population of the tribe grows too large later, you’ll run out of blood essence.” ƒreewebɳovel.com
“Don’t worry about it.”
Lin Xiao waved his hand confidently and transmitted his thoughts to her:
“I have a channel to communicate with my True Body, in the Divine Realm I have tens of thousands of the Nagas Clan, among which are some old Supreme Nagas nearing the end of their life. Instead of dying and turning to dust, it’s better to make use of their bodies.”
An old Supreme Naga before death can have blood drawn gently dozens of times, equivalent to over a hundred portions of diluted blood essence. Not too many are needed; a thousand old Asura Nagas can yield tens of thousands of portions of diluted blood essence, which is completely sufficient.
After all, Totem Warriors are inherently rare. A simple Vine Snake Tribe of a few thousand has only about a dozen, and these tens of thousands of portions are enough for tens of millions of people. Snake Lizard Island’s total native population is less than a million, so there would be more than enough to go around.
With him putting it that way, Shen Yuexin naturally had no further objections, and the plan was decided.
Of course, this was just an idea, and now was not the time for immediate change. They would wait until his subordinates had thoroughly taken control of the Vine Snake Tribe before initiating the change.
But it was not difficult, just a matter of spending slightly more time.
Meanwhile, he could also prepare in advance, ready to implement the transformation plan as soon as everything was set.
Lin Xiao communicated this plan through the Creation Rubik’s Cube to his True Body. As Lin Xiao in the Moon Cloud Realm received the note, he fell into deep thought and had Slarda bring ten portions of Big Nagas Blood Essence.
The Incarnation tasked with descending was only considering how to establish a solid foothold on this plane and successfully construct the Spatial Waymarker, but he was looking at whether this world’s power system was special and whether there was anything to learn from it.
Ordinary Sons of the Divine Realm plunder resources.
Powerful True God Level Sons of Divine Realm plunder strengths and systems.
And those with ambitions to ascend to great divine power, the vastly powerful beings, they plunder civilizations and histories.
Lin Xiao, although still a Demigod, had achievements and vision that had already surpassed ordinary Sons of the Divine Realm. He was not only considering plundering resources but also strengths and systems.
