"My Gu Yuan Tribe has 6.5 million tribesmen, 500,000 Guardian Soldiers, 432 Heavenly Building Realm warriors, and more than 1,000 Three-star fierce beasts that are on par with the Heavenly Building Realm humans."
"We have a million acres of medicinal fields that can cultivate various grades of spiritual herbs and treasures. We have 500,000 acres of spiritual fields that can produce all kinds of spiritual rice below Earth-grade!"
"There are five hundred and thirty beginner apothecaries, forty-three high ranking apothecaries, five great apothecaries, a thousand ling plant farmers, and tens of thousands of martial artists who specialize in growing ling medicine and ling rice. Shen Weapon Hall has more than five thousand three hundred craftsmen, and eighty three great craftsmen who can forge ling weapons."
"There's also the tribe's Void Fleet. We have eight Void Battleships, one of which is a half-step King Grade, two of which are Upper Heaven-grade, two of which are Middle Grade, and three of which are Lower Grade. The entire fleet has 10,000 Guardian Soldiers and 10 Heavenly Building Realm warriors!"
As the Great Elder's voice fell, the hall fell into silence. Similarly, Xiao Chen was also slightly hesitant. Over the past 10 years, the Gu Yuan Tribe had accumulated such a large amount of resources.
Although the methods used to accumulate these resources were not very glorious, they were indispensable in the tribe's initial state. In fact, the development of the Gu Yuan Tribe over the years could be seen as a process of continuous expansion and annexation of other tribes.
Regardless of whether they joined voluntarily or resisted, they were completely helpless in front of the Gu Yuan Tribe. They could either try to integrate or be completely crushed.
Finally, Xiao Chen, who was seated at the host's seat, said, "Elders, this is the full strength of my Gu Yuan Tribe. It will also be the full strength of my Gu Yuan Tribe when we fight the Noble Clans of the Blood Demon Tribe soon."
"Do you have the confidence to fight!?"
In an instant, Xiao Chen's gaze became fierce. The reason why he asked the chief and the elders to calculate the strength of the entire tribe was to give the clansmen some confidence. He wanted to tell the clansmen that they had the power to fight!
His Gu Yuan Tribe also had the strength to fight against the Blood Race families.
Over the past few years, the alien race's crisis had become more and more severe. The entire human world had been dyed with a layer of blood, and the people of the Gu Yuan Tribe could not help but feel a sense of crisis.
Not long ago, Xiao Chen had set up a bloody battle with the Blood Clan. This crisis had spread to the entire Gu Yuan Tribe. Even though the tribe's elders were in charge and Xiao Chen had returned to the tribe, the shadow in the hearts of the tribe members had yet to be erased.
A bloody battle was about to begin. What he needed to do was to rally the hearts of the people!
There was no better way to revive the morale of the people than to stimulate the hope in the hearts of the people. He wanted to tell all the people in the tribe that the Gu Yuan Tribe was ready for battle. They had hundreds of thousands of combat masters and hundreds of Heavenly Building realm martial artists. They were not afraid of battle, and they had the confidence to fight!
"Elders and stewards, after the tribe's discussion, inform every member of the Gu Yuan Tribe of the final numbers. Tell them that the Gu Yuan Tribe has gathered a million combat masters after ten years of hardships. As long as we point our spears, we are not afraid of any alien race's conquest!"
In fact, almost everyone in the Wasteland was a soldier. With the current strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe, it was easy to gather a million combat masters. Moreover, Xiao Chen had already issued an edict. The people who had just been absorbed into the Gu Yuan Tribe, as long as they were martial artists at the Bone Tempering Realm, would all be incorporated into the combat masters.
Even though the tribes that had been forcefully annexed still had some unwillingness in their hearts, they couldn't make a ruckus after all the mid-tier forces of the various tribes had been transferred away.
"Yes!" The tribe's elders and stewards in the main hall accepted the order!
Soon, the elders and stewards of the various palaces left the main hall and began to enter the tribe to inform the people of the current strength of the Gu Yuan Tribe!
On the other hand, the Hall Masters of the various halls and the mighty figures of the Venerable Realm remained in the hall!
"Reporting to Patriarch, the tribe has already selected the martial artists from the newly recruited people and reorganized them into combat masters. The martial artists of the Gu Yuan Tribe will be appointed as chiliarchs, captains, and commanders. I believe that it will not take long for all of them to be reorganized!"
After the stewards of the tribe left, the Great Elder spoke again.
"Moreover, when we forcefully annexed these tribes, most of the martial artists who are related to the patriarchs and elders of the tribes were controlled by the Gu Yuan Tribe. Therefore, there is almost no leader in these tribes. It is only a matter of time before all of them are reorganized."
"Yes!"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded. This time, they had no choice but to forcefully absorb the combat divisions. This was an extremely simple choice. It was true that the Gu Yuan Tribe had protected these tribes in the past, but between the tribe's destruction and survival, he, Xiao Chen, naturally had to protect his own tribe.
"Great Elder, Third Elder, make the arrangements. Recruit all the children of these newly recruited people according to the training standards of the Gu Yuan Tribe," Xiao Chen said again.
"Also, all the martial artists who have been recruited into the combat masters will be given monthly stipends and cultivation needs according to the Gu Yuan Tribe's level of martial artists!"
If he wanted these newly joined tribesmen to settle down quickly, he naturally had to start from many aspects. He had to improve the treatment of these newly joined tribesmen and nurture the next generation of children. This would definitely greatly increase the stability of these people.
"Yes!
This subordinate will make the arrangements! "
"Alright, everyone, there is one last thing. Although the Gu Yuan Tribe's strength is already at the Marquis level, its real tribe rank is still only at the Middle-Grade level. This will be very disadvantageous in the war with the Blood Clan. Therefore, before the Blood War starts, the Gu Yuan Tribe will be promoted to the tribe rank and offer sacrifices to the tribe. I will leave the preparations to the Great Elder!"
"Yes!" Great Elder Tie Wen bowed and answered!
Phew!
Watching the elders leave the hall, Xiao Chen let out a long sigh. His eyes were focused as his gaze penetrated the entire hall and landed directly outside the tribe's mountain city.
At this moment, he was thinking about the endless blood color that he had seen with the help of the Spirit Python of Fortune. Even Wei Yunwei had sensed it, which meant that a crisis was imminent. At this moment, outside the mountain city, in addition to the many tribes that the Gu Yuan Tribe had forcefully annexed, there were still hundreds of tribes gathered.
"Husband, the Gu Yuan Tribe has accumulated so much strength. Let's fight with all our might!" His two wives beside him said softly when they sensed the abnormality in Xiao Chen.
Then, he recovered his wits and said to his two wives, "Your husband will be going out in the next few days to search for chaotic energy to raise my strength. If there are any strange changes in the tribe, just inform Liuli, and your husband will know!"
An hour later, Xiao Chen's figure silently left the Guyuan Tribe. He tore through the void barrier and entered the Void Gazing Cave World.
The silver-white Heavenly River appeared in the Hollow World and flowed quietly as if it had existed since ancient times. However, this seemingly tranquil world was filled with endless taboos.
At this moment, Xiao Chen's goal was the secret place with Chaotic Currents that his Ancestor Junmu had told him about. At this moment, Xiao Chen had an urgent urge to improve his strength. Although he seemed awe-inspiring in front of his tribesmen, he was actually under too much pressure from the Blood Race aristocratic families.
The mark that Old Ancestor Chun Mu had left in the depths of his Soul Sea was the coordinates to the depths of the Void Cave. The Void Cave had existed for a very long time. Even now, Xiao Chen did not know whether this secret place still existed or not. Moreover, he had already made a decision in his heart. If he could not find the Primal Chaos Qi flow, he would have no choice but to let the glass shatter the secret realm space within the Mountain and River Seal and extract the Primal Chaos Qi flow from within.
The Hollow World was boundless and vast. Even a supreme ruler would not be able to completely pry into its secrets, as it was filled with taboos. At this moment, Xiao Chen was carefully moving forward. When he encountered a branch of the Heavenly River in front of him, he would take a long detour and retract all his aura. He was only relying on his Battle Body to travel.
The Hollow World was extremely strange. There were no markings at all, but the existence of the coordinates of the void allowed one to sense the distance within it. This strange thing was not something that the current Xiao Chen could control.
Just like that, Xiao Chen walked for an entire day. Even he himself did not know where he was. However, he did not dare to tear open the Hollow World and return to reality.
He followed the coordinates in his Soul Sea. According to his judgment, the place he was heading towards should be the depths of the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range. If he tore the void and returned, he would also die if he fell into the center of the Fallen Dragon Mountain Range.
After the clan meeting, the thousands of elders and stewards of the Gu Yuan Tribe roamed around the tribe and began to report the strength that the tribe had accumulated over the years to the people of the tribe.
"That's right. Our Gu Yuan Tribe has shaken the desolate border. Even the Baize Marquis Tribe, which has been in the desolate border for thousands of years, has to admit defeat. Why should the Blood Race families fear us?"
"Even marquis combat divisions would find it difficult to gather such a large number of combat masters. Our Gu Yuan Tribe has such strength. This time, it's time for us to make a name for ourselves." There were even martialists in the tribe who were rubbing their fists with unconcealable fighting spirit in their eyes.
"Our Gu Yuan Tribe has killed a lot of foreign races over the years. Didn't we flatten the foreign races with our weapons? This time, I believe that we will definitely defeat the Blood Race."
"Fight, fight, fight!"
"The Gu Yuan Tribe will win!"
