This Is My Primitive Tribe-Chapter 63 - 59 The Birth of the Witch
Chapter 63: Chapter 59 The Birth of the Witch
The green light of life enveloped the entire Stone Mountain, endless roots wrapped around the altar, and the Divine Vine once again displayed its divine wonder.
For a long time, countless roots retracted underground, leaving only an empty great cauldron and a heap of bones on the altar.
Yet the green light of the Divine Vine on Stone Mountain grew even stronger.
"Buzz!"
The Divine Vine suddenly trembled, using Stone Mountain as a foundation, its underground roots extended outwards once more, indicating its Divine Power had risen once again, expanding the range it could protect.
Moreover, unseen by the crowd underground, countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants hibernating were entwined by the roots of the Divine Vine and turned into its nourishment.
The Divine Vine was sentient, clearing away harmful creatures for the Vine Tribe, yet none of the tribe’s livestock, nor the big insects, were harmed.
The Old Witch standing beside the altar widened his eyes, distinctly seeing a segment of white roots flash on a rotting tree on the ground.
After the Divine Power fluctuations on the ground ceased, he quietly crushed the decayed tree with his foot, finding only a dry insect shell inside.
The Old Witch’s face changed, muttering in a very low voice, "Terrifying, terrifying..."
This Divine Vine was more fearsome than he had initially guessed, baffling him as to why such a powerful Divine Vine would agree to become the Vine Tribe’s Totem God.
This small tribe exuded peculiarities entirely inconsistent with its apparent strength.
For instance, they could fire pottery, tame wild beasts, had superior farming techniques compared to other tribes, and possessed an awe-inspiring Totem God.
The more it was so, the more the Old Witch became intrigued by the future of this small tribe, eagerly anticipating how it would develop.
After the Divine Vine cleared the underground snakes, insects, rats, and ants, it visibly received a nutrient boost, its life force stronger than ever.
Though it was late autumn when most vegetation was withered, the Divine Vine sprouted many lush green tendrils, appearing fresh and vivid.
One of the new vines, about the width of an arm, grew rapidly, streaming down from mid-mountain to the altar, surprisingly wrapping Chi Shao as if weaving a cocoon of vine!
"Sister!"
Jiang Xuan’s face changed, breaking into a sprint towards the altar, fearing Chi Shao would end up like those sacrifices, devoured by the Divine Vine leaving only bones.
"Don’t go!"
At the critical moment, the Old Witch swiftly grabbed Jiang Xuan, his expression highly animated, eyes fervent.
"Let go!" Jiang Xuan was anxious, not noticing his abnormality.
However, the Old Witch’s strength was surprisingly great, Jiang Xuan couldn’t break free.
The Old Witch gazed intently at the altar, muttering, "Are you going to interrupt the birth of the first Witch of your tribe?"
"What?"
Jiang Xuan stared in astonishment at the Old Witch, his mind momentarily flummoxed.
"Xuan, I’m fine, I feel something wondrous."
Just then, Chi Shao spoke from the altar, her voice sounding indeed untroubled.
Jiang Xuan heard Chi Shao’s voice and finally calmed down, looking at the Old Witch, he asked, "What were you saying just now?"
The Old Witch still ardently watched the altar, saying, "I said, your Vine Tribe’s first true Witch is about to be born!"
"The Divine Vine is infusing her with Witch Power, which belongs to the power of Witches!"
"Only Witches with Witch Power are true Witches, being infused with Witch Power by the Totem God, is an immense fortune!"
"You must know, now most small tribes, and even many medium-sized tribes’ Witches do not have Witch Power!"
After hearing the Old Witch, Jiang Xuan finally understood, Chi Shao was gaining an opportunity, and such an opportunity was extremely rare.
There were things the Old Witch didn’t say, like the fact this Divine Vine was definitely not as simple as it appeared, seemingly having an extraordinary origin, harboring many secrets.
After a long while, the vines on the altar slowly receded, revealing Chi Shao’s figure once more.
Chi Shao turned her head to glance at Jiang Xuan, signaling him to be at ease.
Jiang Xuan keenly noticed, Chi Shao seemed to have undergone an inexplicable change, her aura became ethereal, her gaze intensely captivating, a mere glance stirred one’s soul.
Is this the change brought by so-called Witch Power?
If not for Chi Shao’s gaze towards him remaining affectionate, Jiang Xuan might even suspect she, like in some novels of the past life, had been possessed by the Divine Vine.
Jiang Xuan planned to thoroughly ask Chi Shao what was going on after the ceremony.
The Old Witch beside was obviously less contemplative than Jiang Xuan, he excitedly exclaimed, "I have witnessed the birth of a tribe’s first-generation Witch!"
No matter how excited the Old Witch was, the ceremony continued.
On the altar, having received Witch Power, Chi Shao’s previous tension disappeared entirely, she became confident.
The ancient and mysterious Witchcraft resounded once more, only this time it was not an Invocation Spell, but a Blessing Spell.
On the massive Ancient Vine, sixteen tender braches grew rapidly, extending over Jiang Xuan, Gan Song, and others.
"Drip!"
A droplet akin to a green diamond fell on Jiang Xuan’s head and seeped into his body.
Afterwards, Jiang Xuan felt an immense force quickly spreading to his limbs and meridians, his strength grew stronger, his vision, smell, hearing all enhanced.
Jiang Xuan clenched his fists, feeling the formidable power within him, he joyfully exclaimed, "I have become a Two-Color Warrior."
Previously, Jiang Xuan’s strength almost met the Two-Color Warrior standard after consuming Whip Tree fruit, but other aspects were lacking.
Now, the Divine Vine’s liquid made him truly a Two-Color Warrior.
This was a marvelous intuition; if facing a wild boar now, Jiang Xuan was sure he wouldn’t panic, as a Two-Color Warrior possessed strength not weaker than a mature wild boar.
It’s not just Jiang Xuan, Gou Teng and Shi Qiu also became Two-Color Warriors, Nan Xing a bit weaker, but close in strength to a Two-Color Warrior.
As for Gan Song and the twelve others, they all became One-Color Warriors.
Feeling that powerful strength, many were overwhelmed with joy, as it was a surprise they before could only dream about.
After the Divine Vine did all this, all its branches retracted, the surface glow gradually dimmed.
"Thank the Vine God for its grace."
Chi Shao paid respects again, then rose and walked down the steps from the altar, marking the end of the Vine Tribe’s autumn ceremony.
"Sis, how do you feel now?" Jiang Xuan asked concernedly.
Chi Shao thought for a moment, seriously replying, "I can directly communicate with the Vine God now."
"Really?" Jiang Xuan felt incredulous; this ability was beyond his prior understanding.
Chi Shao nodded, "There are other changes too, I need time to adapt."
Jiang Xuan said, "No rush, take your time, let’s attend to the main event first."
Jiang Xuan and Chi Shao walked over to the Vine Tribe members, facing familiar faces, Jiang Xuan said, "I now announce two things."
"First, from now on, Chi Shao will be the Witch of our Vine Tribe!" ƒreewebɳovel.com
Everyone nodded, not a single objection; Chi Shao’s identity was acknowledged by the Totem God.
"Second," Jiang Xuan looked at Gan Song and the others.
"Starting today, the twelve of you are officially members of our Vine Tribe, welcome to the Vine Tribe."
"Wonderful!"
The twelve were moved to tears, the surprises today were numerous.
Official membership in the Vine Tribe meant as much as becoming a One-Color Warrior to them.
It was double joy!
"There’s one more thing; tonight, the Vine Tribe will host a bonfire party, with plentiful food, letting everyone eat and play to their heart’s content!"
"Yes!"
The crowd cheered, eager to celebrate.
Watching from the side, Jing Jie and more than a hundred Wanderers felt very envious of the Vine Tribe members’ cheer, some began longing to join them.
