A total of eight thousand combat masters had besieged this low-ranked combat division. Among them, there were more than ten Blood Refining Realm warriors. The stubborn resistance of this tribe had only lasted for six hours before it was breached.
Soldiers passed like flies, not to mention the bloodthirsty combat masters. One could imagine the outcome of this human combat division. Many combat masters were like wolves and tigers, full of killing intent. The so-called pursuit of defeated soldiers had long turned into burning, killing, and looting.
Xue Sha and Xiao Wangliang did not stop the vassal combat masters from doing such a thing. As the saying went, it was better for your friends to die than for me. In the face of their own tribe's benefits, some things had been selectively ignored.
"Captain Xiao, the Chief is right. Everyone in this world is motivated by profit. These vassal battalions are just opportunists. Now that they see that our Gu Yuan Tribe is strong, they've decided to attach themselves to our Gu Yuan Tribe. Isn't it all because of profit?"
Xiao Wangliang was Xiao Chen's brother. Even though Xue Sha had already advanced to the ranks of Building Tower Realm martial artists and was no longer on the same level as Xiao Chen, Xue Sha did not have the slightest arrogance in his words towards Xiao Wangliang.
"Elder Xue, how many of these human combat divisions have truly submitted to our Gu Yuan Tribe?
But so what? Now that my Gu Yuan Combat Division has become a middle-grade combat division, and there are many Heavenly Building Realm warriors in the tribe, these combat divisions still have to obediently surrender to me. This is the general trend that my Gu Yuan Tribe has gathered. If these combat divisions don't understand and dare to resist my Gu Yuan Combat Division, the only outcome is death and the annihilation of their tribe! "
After the two of them exchanged words for a while, Xiao Wangliang said to the Green Feather Warrior beside him, "Go and tell the combat masters of the various clans that have invaded the walled city that the old rules are still the same. Our Gu Yuan Tribe will not take a single cent of the resources and treasures obtained by the clans that resist our Gu Yuan Tribe's army. All of them will be rewarded to the combat masters of the various clans that have participated in the battle as a reward for their bloody battles!"
"Commander Xiao, this time, we have dispatched three armies to the outskirts of the central region of the Fallen Dragon Territory to annihilate Ao Shan and the other combat divisions, and the one furthest away from them is our Southern Division. If we don't want to delay the meeting with Lord Clan Chief, we'll have to hasten our march."
"Since that's the case, we've destroyed six human tribes in the past few days. Most of them are young women, and these young women are in great need of our Gu Yuan Tribe. Why don't we leave a thousand-man combat master to escort these women and children back to the tribe?"
The development of a tribe was inseparable from its population, not to mention that the Gu Yuan Tribe was currently in a period of rapid development. The tribe's population had always been a huge constraint. Not many new lives were born in the tribe every year.
The number of women was related to the reproduction of the tribe's next generation. After all, in the Great Wilderness, there was no such thing as monogamy. As long as a man had the strength, he could marry as many women as he wanted. However, the prerequisite was that he had the strength to protect them. Any tribe would encourage their people to procreate!
"Alright!
That's good too. We can't let these women follow us when we conquer the Great Wilderness. Nothing could be better than escorting them back to the tribe and handing them over to the tribe elders. When our Gu Yuan Tribe returns victorious, we'll bestow these women to the tribe's soldiers. I believe that in less than two to three years, new lives will be born in the tribe! "
"Pass down my order. All the combat masters of the major tribes are to clean up the battlefield as soon as possible and march at full speed!"
The central region of the Fallen Dragon Territory.
The Fallen Dragon Territory was a long and narrow area surrounded by countless mountains. Not to mention the entire Barren Land, even in the Desolate Border Region, it was only the size of a palm.
The central region of the Fallen Dragon Territory referred to the Ao Shan Combat Division as the center. It was a barren land with a radius of nearly ten thousand miles. On this land, there were only a dozen or so wandering tribes. However, these ten human tribes and wandering tribes possessed more than eighty percent of the strength of the entire Fallen Dragon Territory.
This land with a radius of ten thousand miles could be said to be the ruler of the entire Fallen Dragon Territory and the fate of all human tribes.
In just a short month, this land with a radius of ten thousand miles had become turbulent. Dozens of human tribes had poured into the central region of the Fallen Dragon Territory. They had brought their families and families with them. The relocation of the entire tribe had caused the land to become a little chaotic.
Ao Shan Combat Division.
The continuous mountain range that spanned hundreds of miles formed the defense system of the entire Ao Shan Combat Division. The densely packed mountains, steep cliffs, and grotesque rocks covered the hidden areas. Cold light flashed from the reflection of arrows.
In the center of the ancient mountains, on top of the largest ancient mountain, inside a blood-colored palace.
"Lord Patriarch, the Gu Yuan Clan has sent out three armies to sweep through the Fallen Dragon Territory. All the human clans along the way have prostrated themselves before them. What's even more hateful is that these human clans dared to openly rebel against our Ao Shan Clan and sent out their combat masters to follow the Gu Yuan Clan to conquer the great wilderness!"
"In just a short five days, hundreds of combat divisions have submitted to the Gu Yuan Combat Division. Now, the three armies of the Combat Masters have skyrocketed from twenty thousand to fifty thousand. If this had continued, the Gu Yuan Tribe would have been able to control more than two hundred thousand Combat Masters by the time the three armies meet in the central region of the Fallen Dragon Territory!"
"Enough!"
With a loud shout, the white jade table was smashed into powder.
In the blood-colored palace, a brawny man sat on the seat of honor. He was the patriarch of the Ao Shan Combat Division, Ao Kui. At this moment, he was extremely furious. Ever since he led the warriors of various races to attack the Gu Yuan Tribe and returned in defeat, all the news he had received these days made him furious.
Ao Kui regarded the defeat that day as the greatest humiliation of his life. He didn't expect that before he could regain his dignity, the Gu Yuan Tribe had sent out all their troops to conquer the great wilderness. It was obvious that they were targeting his Ao Shan Combat Division.
"It seems that these human tribes have forgotten who the true overlord of the Fallen Dragon Territory is. They are just a human tribe that has just risen up. Even if they have a Sky Building Realm warrior, so what? The sky of the Fallen Dragon Territory belongs to my Ao Shan Combat Division. No one can take it away from us!"
"After I take care of the Gu Yuan Tribe, I will come back and punish these traitors. How dare they follow a foreign tribe and rebel against my Ao Shan Combat Division. It seems that I have been too kind to them in the past. These human tribes are all despicable wretches. Only by slaughtering and dying can they truly understand themselves!"
"I think this Gu Yuan Tribe is just a hypocritical tribe. Those human tribes that refused to submit were all slaughtered and turned into wastelands!"
"Alright, you can leave now. Continue to investigate and report. Since this Gu Yuan Tribe thinks that they have a good fortune, they don't care about the entire world. They even bullied my Ao Shan Combat Division. I will go and ask the Great Ancestor to come out and make sure that they won't be able to return!"
Great Ancestor!
Hearing this, the warriors below couldn't help but be overjoyed. As members of the Ao Shan War Division, how could they not know the strength of their own War Clan? In these past years, they had been arrogant and domineering, and it was all because of the existence of their Old Ancestor. This was the greatest support of their Ao Shan War Division!
Because of the existence of the Great Ancestor, even though Ao Kui led many warriors to attack the Gu Yuan Combat Division and was defeated, the entire tribe knew that the Gu Yuan Combat Division had mobilized all of its warriors to conquer the Great Desolate and wanted to conquer Ao Shan Combat Division. However, the tribe did not panic at all because they didn't believe that the Gu Yuan Combat Division would be a match for their Great Ancestor.
This was the source of their Ao Shan Combat Division's confidence. An Great Ancestor who had become a Sky Building Realm warrior hundreds of years ago!
In the eyes of the Duo Ao Mountain Battalion, the Gu Yuan Tribe's expedition to the Great Desolate was just a joke. Since the Gu Yuan Tribe was so powerful, they would let them be proud for a while. When the Gu Yuan Tribe's morale reached its peak, they would be beheaded by the Duo Ao Mountain Battalion. The rise and fall of the Gu Yuan Tribe was exciting to imagine.
After the clansmen dispersed, Ao Kui stood up and entered the rear hall. After a while, his figure appeared again. This time, he was already at the back of the blood-red hall.
This was a land of rubble, which seemed to have been piled up by someone. The rubble was covered with layers of moss. These rubble had been piled up on the peak of the ancient mountain for at least hundreds of years.
Rumble!
Ao Kui lightly touched a stone covered with moss. A series of loud noises rang out. The rubble that was originally rubble began to tremble and crack in all directions.
Finally, the rubble scattered and a pitch-black cave entrance appeared on the mountain wall. The darkness exuded a trace of terrifying aura. Without hesitation, Ao Kui flashed into the cave. The cave closed and the rubble returned to its original position. Only layers of moss were left behind, as if to tell others that someone had been here.
The cave actually spiraled downwards. After a few minutes, the stairs still did not reach the end. After such a long time, it had already reached the height of the entire ancient mountain. At this moment, Ao Kui had already entered the bottom of the ancient mountain, but he did not reveal any expression of panic.
The entire cave was desolate, and no signs of life could be detected. It was as if it was a dead place. Finally, after turning a corner, Ao Kui's figure appeared in an underground space. It seemed to be an underground culvert created by the movement of the earth's crust.
This space was actually blood-red!
The huge space was filled with countless skeletons. These skeletons all belonged to humans, and they densely covered the entire cave. As Ao Kui walked, he constantly crushed the skeletons under his feet. His expression was indifferent, as if everything in front of him was so normal.
At the center of the cave was a huge pool of blood. At this moment, there were human skeletons floating in the pool, but these skeletons had long lost their flesh. All that was left was a skin bag that wrapped around the bones. It would not take long for them to turn into skeletons like the many skeletons in the cave, spreading across the ground.
In the pool of blood, there was a haggard, zombie-like old man sitting cross-legged. The gurgling blood was constantly being absorbed into his body, but strangely, there was not the slightest change to his body.
