Volume 6 Chapter 13: Evil God invasion.

“What’s going on over there?” Meng 37’s figure was currently hidden under a black cloak, but the strange movements beneath definitely appeared inhuman. Lifting his head towards the distance, he tried to discern what had happened. With such a huge fluctuation of natural energy, it was impossible for anyone to not notice it.

A few days ago, he had killed another member of the Meng tribe who also carried the great serpent Totem, Meng Luo. He was an exceptionally terrifying enemy, his constitution, fighting skills, usage of Cede, and even his willpower far surpassed Meng 37.

If not because of good luck, Meng 37 might not have been able to actually kill Meng Luo, and to commemorate this respectable enemy, Meng 37 had changed his name to Meng Luo.

The 37 in his name represented the fact that he used to be the 37th Vitality Root Fetus. If his Wild Release ritual had gone smoothly, the Shaman would have bestowed him with a name, but since there was an issue and he ended up becoming an inferior Desolate, he was simply called Meng 37.

Of course, from now on, he would be called Meng Luo.

Because he had actively hunted a Warrior of the Meng tribe, he officially became their public enemy number one, forcing him to flee even more desperately compared to before. The power of a Shaman was far beyond any reason, as they could utilize the Cede of the tribe itself to perform a natural disaster curse that was beyond the limit of an individual.

Even if the Shaman of the Meng tribe didn’t act, even the first-rate Warriors or veteran Warriors weren’t people that Meng Luo could win again.

From the original Meng Luo, he had obtained a great deal of knowledge regarding Warriors to make up for his previous ignorance.

In the beginning, a Warrior was no different from a Desolate who had managed to obtain a Totem, which they needed to continuously hunt more prey to provide offerings to. Through the act of offering, they would strengthen the connection between themselves and the Totem, depicting a clearer Totem.

Once a Totem had depicted a clear enough piece of a bigger picture, the Warrior would obtain a Skill from the Totem, these Skills could be a domain, an ability to attack or defend, or even strange and unusual abilities that couldn’t be categorized.

After a Totem was depicted by half, they must enter the Converging Path, which was to search for another owner of the same Totem, kill them, then offer the fallen’s Totem as a sacrifice to themselves to complement it.

The other Warriors in the tribe of the Converging Path would not try to stop them, in fact, as long as it was a fair battle, neither tribe would interfere before, during, or after the battle was over. Additionally, only Warriors who had reached the Converging Path would qualify to become a first-rate Warrior.

After all, only those with a complete Totem would be able to enter the Ancestral Wild and communicate with the other Shamans. If one couldn’t even achieve this, they would not qualify to become a first-rate Warrior, each of which was a candidate to become the next Shaman.

In the past, if a tribe had 1 or 2 Warriors who had completed the Converging Path, they would already be considered a decently powerful tribe, but ever since the appearance of the Demon race, the pressure of survival had gotten much harsher, forcing them to continuously improve their competitiveness.

The current Meng tribe was maintaining a total of four Warriors who had completed the Converging Path, as well as a large number of Warriors who were one step lower than they were, just to barely keep up competition against the other tribes, otherwise, the struggle for resources would only cause the tribe to gradually become weaker.

During these past years, at least 3 smaller tribes had been assimilated by the Meng tribe due to being unable to survive any further.

Although Meng Luo had reached the first stage of a Warrior after devouring another portion of the serpent Totem, gaining a clear depiction of a bigger picture and his own Skill, he would have a death wish if he didn’t try to run as far as possible while under pursuit from the tribe.

Not to mention, since he used the stealing method to directly obtain a Totem, the bloody red eye on his Totem was causing his control over the Totem to slip.

Should I head over there to take a look?

After pondering for a short moment, Meng Luo made up his mind. Now that he had gained another portion of his Totem, it was time to digest his harvests, not to complicate things.

Unfortunately, as the owner of a [Protagonist Aura], Meng Luo had the passive ability to attract events. Even if he didn’t try to search for trouble, trouble would still come to find him.

“You there, hurry and run! Behind me… a monster!”

Right as Meng Luo was about to leave, a man with wounds all over his body fled towards his direction with a frightened look on his face. As soon as he saw Meng Luo, the man quickly told him to run while turning to run in a different direction.

Thanks to the beast tooth, Meng Luo’s senses far surpassed those of others, and after he became a Warrior, his senses were further heightened thanks to the Totem, allowing him to easily see the ‘monster’ that the other man was running from.

It was a creature of incredible shock value, anyone who saw it would immediately assume it to be a terrifying violent monster.

The creature appeared basically humanoid with countless black stripes all over its body and a long trail of black smoke billowing from its back. At the various joints on its body, as well as the back of its neck, there were blades or spikes that protruded outwards, even its tail was full of smaller sharp blades.

This monster existed purely for the sake of destruction.

The monster was incredibly fast; as if the blades and spikes all over its body didn’t hinder its movement at all, the air felt like it was being ripped apart as the creature charged forward. Meng Luo was sure that anyone who it crashed into would be turned into a pile of mush.

? Disaster descends! ?the terrifying monster spoke with an inhuman voice similar to howling wind. If Meng Luo’s senses hadn’t been heightened, he might not have understood what it was saying.

Whenever the monster’s gigantic feet touched the ground, its razor-sharp claws ripped through the earth while it charged towards the fleeing men.

When it was about to reach its target, the blades on the monster’s body seemed to have protruded a bit further forward.

…

Yun Yi could practically hear the sound of ripping wind behind his back. He was a newly promoted Warrior of the Yunhe tribe who had just gone out to hunt for prey to make an offering to his Totem. When he returned, before he had even reached the gates of the tribe, he was sent flying backwards by the intense fluctuations earlier.

By the time he reached the tribe again, he found that over half of the tribe had been erased, with a single man near the border of the crater who seemed to still be alive.

Yun Yi hurriedly ran to help, only for the man to grab his hand. The man’s eyes were blank but looked incredibly frightening; as if there was some sort of horrible monster hidden inside. The man mumbled over and over: “[Disaster] is approaching, the ruler of all calamity, the Lord of Disaster is coming…”

The man then tightly grasped Yun Yi’s hand like it was the last of his strength and cried out with fear: “Hurry and hide, prepare… for the Lord of Disaster…”

Immediately after that, Yun Yi saw black smoke from the ruins around them rapidly flowing into this man’s body, which quickly turned the man into his monstrous form.

Yun Yi closed his eyes as he felt an immense force on his back. He could feel his body being sent flying, but the expected sensation of several blades ripping through his flesh didn’t occur at all.

Rolling on the ground, Yun Yi opened his eyes again, only to see the black-cloaked man from earlier standing to face the monster. His black cloak had already been ripped to reveal Meng Luo’s robust body and the serpent rising from his back.

Like a ghost, the serpent leapt forward with its slithering body, its gaping jaws opened wide in an attempt to devour the monster whole.
