Chapter 224 - The suppression of the fire seed

In the Wan s.h.i.+ tribe

In the shaman’s house.

The door with a beast skull hanging on it was suddenly opened.

The shaman’s face was painted with a colorful totem pattern. He was sweating while rus.h.i.+ng out. Then he hurried to the chief’s house.

The Wan s.h.i.+ tribe’s chief was served by several female prisoners who had been brought here last year. But he was suddenly disturbed by the shaman and now had a displeased look.

“What’s up?”

Having hurriedly come, the shaman was out of breath and said at once, “There was a change in the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest!”

The chief’s closed eyes suddenly opened, and instantly became sharp like a knife. He asked, “Are you sure?”

Last year, the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest made the chief of the Wan s.h.i.+ tribe lose face. The men of his tribe had always slaughtered, bullied, and robbed others. Before that, they had never been bullied and thus felt so frustrated! Every time he thought of this, he felt someone had insulted him. He didn’t allow anyone to tell this thing which would ruin the reputation of the Wan s.h.i.+ tribe. If anyone mentioned it, he or she would be killed. Until now, there were no less than ten people killed by him because of this.

This remained an unsolved problem for the chief of the Wan s.h.i.+ tribe. Because of the previous casualties, until now he hadn’t sent any more people into the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest.

“Indeed, just now, something ominous is happening, I feel...” The Wan s.h.i.+ shaman said with unrest. He could hear his heartbeats, much faster than usual.

“What do you feel?”

“I feel...” Looking at the chief’s red eyes, the Wan s.h.i.+ shaman lowered his head, and kept silent as a coward.

“Say!”

The Wan s.h.i.+ shaman took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, “The suppression of a fire seed!”

The atmosphere inside the house suddenly became tense.

The women who had served the chief with a smile at the moment were trembling like sieves. But they did not make even a little bit of sound, for fear of being noticed because of the sound.

They had served the chief here for some time, and understood his temper. At the moment, the chief was furious.

They did not know the Wan s.h.i.+ chief was not only angry, but also scared. He had many complex thoughts, so he became absent-minded for a bit. But he soon became conscious and smashed the wooden table next to him. His strong totem power showed his anger. His eyes became red and looked at the women who were scared, hiding in the corner.

The guards outside the chief’s house suddenly heard shouts and screams from the house, and soon the sound ended abruptly.

Bang!

The wooden door was kicked open and broke into several pieces.

Full of bloodl.u.s.t, the man took big steps out from the house. His every step threatened the guards, so that they had to breathe carefully. They worried that the chief would scold them.

Fortunately, at this moment, the Wan s.h.i.+ chief paid no attention to them and just walked away. He walked toward the fire pit.

After the Wan s.h.i.+ chief, the Wan s.h.i.+ shaman came out without any expression. When he went past the guards, he paused for a while, and said,“Clean up the things in the house.”

“Yes!” The guards replied. They knew what the “things” in the house the shaman referred to.

After the chief and the shaman left, the guards went into the house. They removed the blood stains in the whole house and took away the incomplete dead bodies. They had done this more than once, so they didn't feel afraid of the blood in the house. While cleaning the house, they were discussing in whispers as to why the chief was so angry.

Coming to the fire pit, the Wan s.h.i.+ chief saw the flames were not as fierce as usual. Then he felt frightened. Although he had heard what the shaman said, when he witnessed it himself he was still unable to control his emotion.

The Wan s.h.i.+ shaman was standing ten steps away from the chief. He knew the chief’s temper so he knew if he was too close to him he would suffer.

“Call our men! I will go to the Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest in person!”

Just finis.h.i.+ng his words, the stone near the Wan s.h.i.+ chief’s feet was broken.

Bang!

For the people of the Wan s.h.i.+ tribe, this night was not clam. The chief was furious, so everyone was scared. They heard that tomorrow they would go to Ferocious Beast Mountain Forest, so they became even more worried. This night, they were unable to sleep.

On the other side, the men of the Flaming Horns tribe were filled with joy. They did not know what kind of people were about to arrived at their old haunt. Now they were absorbing the energy of the fire crystals.

In the fire pit, the three Flames had been completed. The third Flame went on smoothly, so the Shaman said everything would go on well.

In the past, when the Flames had been completed, the ritual would end. The chief and the Shaman would announce something and the gathering would end. Everyone would have gone back home. But today, after the third Flame and the fire seed retreated to the fire pit, the Shaman took out the long-awaited fire crystals.

Having waited for a winter, they finally saw the fire crystals at this moment. Each totem warrior tried hard to absorb the energy from the fire pit into their bodies. They seldom had such a change.

Besides those who had not awakend their power yet, Shao Xuan was one of the people that felt the most relaxed.

The energy of the fire crystal could not directly improve him, but in order not to avoid looking different, he still stayed with the other people. Different from the others, he did not absorb the energy. Instead, he was just contemplating about his mysterious state while dancing.

What he had seen at the time was probably a past scene of the booming Flaming Horns tribe, rather than the present scene. That kind of scene was similar with what he saw in the old haunt.

The old haunt...

When the tribe returns with the fire seed, it would see a big change.

When all the energy in the fire pit was consumed, it was close to dawn.

Everyone absorbed different amounts of fire crystal energy. Some people absorbed much, while some absorbed less. Some absorbed the energy fast, while some did that slowly. Those who had finished the absorption quickly did not leave, but stayed there to stimulate the totem power to properly integrate the energy which they had absorbed.

Some people who were close to making a breakthrough upgraded to a new level on the spot. When the young warriors saw the totem pattern extending to their elbows, they could not help but show joy on their faces. The ritual had not yet ended, so they dared not speak out. They just stopped themselves from laughing. They exposed their teeth and clenched their fists, and their faces twisted.

The Shaman glanced at them and his eyes showed his joy.

After the announcement of the end of the sacrifice ritual, everyone left one after another. Tonight probably those close friends talked more with one another, and gathered together to celebrate.

“A few days later, when they are in a stable state, summarize their situation and report it to me.” The chief said to the man next to him.

“Yes!”

Tonight a hundred people would awaken their power. If all of them succeeded, they all became totem warriors, including Yan Zhi and the others.

Jiao Wu almost could not help but shout out. He smiled and then began to cry with a smile. The eyes of Yan Zhi, Yan Shuo and the others were filled with tears.

Next to them, those children did not understand why these men older than them cried. Although they had awakened their power and were proud of becoming totem warriors, they didn’t need to be so excited, right?

The Shaman did not say anything, and told someone to bring the new warriors to the edge. Tonight, he would personally teach these new warriors.

“Let’s go, Shao Xuan!” Old Ke sat on Caesar’s back and cried at the edge of the top of the mountain.

“I’m coming!” Shao Xuan looked away from the fire pit, and looked towards Old Ke and Caesar.

“Do you... improve?” Old Ke patted his wrist.

He was asking Shao Xuan whether he had improved from intermediate totem warrior to senior. A senior totem warrior‘s totem patterns extended to the wrists. Shao Xuan wore his ritual beast clothes so he could not see the totem patterns on his arm. That was why old Ke asked such a question.

Shao Xuan shook his head.

Old Ke was looking forward to that and his eyes told his disappointment. But he then smiled and said,“It’s fine, take it easy.”

He just saw many people tonight improve to a higher level. Shao Xuan, in the eyes of old Ke, was a very good and talented warrior. He should also be able to improve a lot, but he saw Shao Xuan shaking his head. He was worried Shao Xuan would think too much so he held back his depression to comfort Shao Xuan.

Shao Xuan smiled and did not say more.

While going down the mountain, Shao Xuan was stopped by Lang Ga and some others. Many in the hunting team had improved a lot and Mai became a senior totem warrior. Everyone was happy. As the head of the hunting team, Mai waved his hand and asked them to gather together to celebrate. Shao Xuan was invited as he had helped a lot.

“You go on.” Old Ke laughed. His eyes narrowed, patted Shao Xuan’s shoulders, and then patted Caesar’s wolf head, “Go, let’s go back first.”

After resting for a whole winter and absorbing the energy from the fire crystals, old Ke felt that he was young again and energetic. It was obvious that he was stronger. Although he lost one leg, it was easy for him to go down the mountain with the help of his stick. But old Ke did not walk down the mountain. Instead, he rode a wolf. Ge and some other old friends looked at him with disdain, but he just hummed the tune of the “Hunting Song” while going down the mountain.

Before the first hunt this year, the Shaman and the chief got the report and the report delighted them.

Originally there were only a little over ten senior totem warriors, and two of them were old warriors. Compared to young warriors, they were less powerful. But now, there were another twenty young senior totem warriors! According to the report, although many people failed to make a breakthrough, they had improved. It was believed that they were not far from a breakthrough.

“Good, very good!”

In order to return to the old land, the Shaman and the chief naturally hoped that there were more and more powerful warriors. After all, they would face more challenges brought by other humans and ferocious beasts after the return to the old land. Only when they had strength could they finally settle in the old land after going back there.

“Have the s.h.i.+ps finished building?” The chief asked the man next to him.

“We are still trying.” The warrior reported the progress of the s.h.i.+pbuilding to the chief and the Shaman.

“Not fast enough.” Ao said.

He was looking forward to the return to the old land, so he was not satisfied with the current progress.

“Take it easy.” the Shaman said. Although he said so, he then discussed with the chief about whether to build a big lake near the training ground. If they had a lake without the wood-eating insects, it would be easy for them to test the new s.h.i.+ps.

This was not a small project which involved the location selection, digging, transferring water, and so on. That was a complex process.

Ao agreed.
