Chapter 179: Chapter 109: The Ancient Covenant

In Qin Jin’s perception, the aura of Wish Power emanates from the package behind the woman, without establishing a direct connection with her.

“It seems like some sort of artifact imbued with Wish Power, carried by her at all times.”

“A technique set by the Sacrificial Spirit of the Tu Yang Tribe?”

With a shift in thought, Qin Jin decided not to conduct a deeper investigation.

This visitor from the Tu Yang Tribe has so far exhibited a rather friendly attitude.

Under such circumstances, Qin Jin had no intention of disrupting this relationship first. The other party purportedly carries an artifact imbued with Wish Power; just with this technique, the unseen Sacrificial Spirit of the Tu Yang Tribe far surpasses Bai Su, the Sacrificial Spirit of the Wind Language Tribe.

From their words, he might gain more information about the Great Wilderness.

Expectations rose in his eyes as Qin Jin quietly waited.

…

Xia Rock Tiger strode away.

The three individuals from the Tu Yang Tribe, out of safety concerns, were placed on the outskirts of the tribe, accompanied by other clan members returning together.

The two accompanying men were tall and energetic. In contrast, the woman was shorter in stature, but on her right cheek ran the lines of Treasure Skill, extending to her shoulder, adding a touch of distinctive wild beauty.

The trio stood at their spots, observing their surroundings with inscrutable expressions.

The Sacrificial Fire Tribe’s development has never ceased, evoking some emotion as they watched the Fire Sacrifice Clan People diligently build their home in the distance.

At this moment.

Xia Rock Tiger came over with large strides.

“Three of you.”

His voice was steady: “Our Lord Sacrificial Spirit wishes to meet you.”

Upon hearing, the three exchanged looks and all revealed expressions of delight.

The woman appeared thoughtful and earnestly asked: “How should we address your tribe’s Sacrificial Spirit?”

Xia Rock Tiger maintained his expression: “The name of the Lord Sacrificial Spirit is Jin.”

Following brief communication, the trio followed Xia Rock Tiger deeper into the tribe.

The outermost area continues its construction, while inside the tribe, night falls, smoke rises, and the aroma of cooked meat wafts through the air.

There are also robust clan members stationed within the tribe, sparring together, creating a thunderous momentum.

With adequate medicinal baths for support and in combination with the Martial Arts System, the Sacrificial Fire Tribe’s people are extremely strong at their foundation, leaving none to be underestimated.

The three visitors from the Tu Yang Tribe observed this and exchanged glances, their expressions becoming increasingly solemn.

They went further in.

Outside the Sacrificial Spirit Hall.

Xia Rock Tiger entered first, and after obtaining permission, led the three inside the Sacrificial Spirit Hall.

At the instant they entered the hall, before they could see the full presence of the Fire Sacrificial Spirit, their bodies suddenly felt a heavy pressure, clearly sensing the pervasive invisible spiritual pressure.

Almost without hesitation, the leading woman bent down in respect, her voice rang out.

“Sheng Yi of the Tu Yang Tribe, pays respects to the esteemed Fire Sacrificial Spirit, pays respects to Lord Jin.”

Behind her.

The other two followed suit, earnestly bowing.

“Tu Yang Tribe.”

Qin Jin’s voice carried a commanding presence, echoing within the hall: “Are you following the orders of your tribe’s Sacrificial Spirit to visit other tribes?”

Upon hearing this inquiry, Sheng Yi slowly raised her head.

Moments ago, merely a fleeting glance; now, the full form of the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd was in sight, and an expression of amazement involuntarily arose in her eyes—it was evidently her first time seeing such a Sacrificial Spirit.

The astonishment passed in an instant, and she suppressed the waves in her heart, answering earnestly: “Yes.”

Upon hearing her response,

Qin Jin kept his expression calm, his attention slipped past the three, falling on the package behind her, and he spoke slowly: “Tu Yang Tribe’s visit to other tribes seeks what purpose?”

“To foster good relations with all tribes.”

Sheng Yi didn’t seem to be meeting with another tribe’s Sacrificial Spirit for the first time. Her current demeanour was composed as she retrieved a Beast Hide Scroll from her bosom.

“In the Great Wilderness, Fierce Beasts wreak havoc, dangers abound.”

“We have travelled here, having seen countless remnants of various tribes along the way. These tribes coexist within the Great Wilderness and should be mutually supportive and of service to each other.”

“By the orders of our Lord Sacrificial Spirit, we are travelling to establish connections with other tribes; we may even set up caravans to trade amongst ourselves.”

At this point,

She signalled to her two clan members, who took the Beast Hide Scroll, one on each side, and directly unfolded it.

This was evidently a map.

It appears to be the route map from the Tu Yang Tribe to this place, marking the locations of seven or eight tribal sites; some tribal remnants that have perished are recorded too.

However.

The map does not clearly record the location of the Tu Yang Tribe.

With the map unfolded, Sheng Yi’s voice echoed: “Lord Jin, we are willing to present this map as a token of sincerity.”

“The Tu Yang Tribe wishes to build cordial relations with the Sacrificial Fire Tribe. When we return, the Sacrificial Fire Tribe’s people are welcome to visit our Tu Yang Tribe.”

Qin Jin withdrew his gaze from the map.

Regardless of whether this map is genuine or not, it holds referential value for the Sacrificial Fire Tribe at present.

The Azure Thunder Profound Halberd reclined on its seat, upper body leaning forward, an arm resting on a leg, seemingly gazing at the map yet exerting an overwhelming pressure, causing the two holding the map to instinctively step back repeatedly.

Qin Jin’s voice also resonated at this moment.

“It seems the Tu Yang Tribe’s aspirations may not be limited to just this.”

“Since your tribe’s Sacrificial Spirit has also come along, guests are welcome—why not have it come forth for a detailed discussion with me?”

Sensations reverberated throughout the hall.

When observed from afar outside, it was hard to confirm.

But now, within the Sacrificial Spirit Hall and on his own turf, at such proximity, Qin Jin clearly sensed from the moment Sheng Yi and her companions entered that the Wish Power on her back had become active, subtly appearing to be observing him.
