Chapter 785
With just one strike, Hei Ya had been beaten into submission. The legends of the powerful outsiders were indeed true.
Zi Chen stopped a few meters away from the terrified barbarians. Wu Man had already walked down the altar and stood behind Zi Chen. Zi Chen looked at the terrified Hei Ya and said, "We are few in number. We don't have much use for this place. As long as we share it, it's fine. Are you willing?"
"Of course, of course. In the future, if the Ravens want to come, we will not stop them. We will use the statue first." Hei Ya quickly nodded.
The same sentence was said one after another, but it brought about completely different effects. It seemed that the principle of 'the strong is respected' was applicable everywhere.
Zi Chen was very satisfied with Hei Ya's attitude. He nodded and pointed at the six injured barbarians who were being protected by the barbarians. "They are all my captives. If you want to take them away, go ahead and take them. But when you go back, you must send back all the Ravens that were taken away from me over ten years ago."
Zi Chen's action was an obvious exchange. Moreover, the one who benefited the most was Hei Ya. Hei Ya naturally agreed.
Zi Chen had two reasons for coming here. The first was to obtain the Berserker Art. The second was to help the Ravens gain a chance to understand the statue of the God of Berserkers. Now that he had completed both of his goals, it seemed that Zi Chen could leave.
Zi Chen glanced at Wu Man and asked, "Have you finished comprehending?"
Wu Man's face was full of excitement. He nodded and said, "Yes, I have gained a lot."
"Then let's go." With that, Zi Chen turned around and left without any hesitation.
Hei Ya and the other barbarians were stunned as they watched Zi Chen and Wu Man leave. Only when the two figures completely disappeared from their sight did the barbarians react.
A fourth level barbarian asked, "Chief, why did they leave? Why didn't they send anyone to guard this place?"
"What else can they do? They can't stay here to eat."
Black Cliff stared at the man and saw that the others were confused as well. He explained, "The Ravens have too few people. They may not even have two hundred, but they can't defend this place. What they need is a chance to learn."
"Then, Chief, do you mean that this place still belongs to us?" another barbarian asked.
"Of course, but it is no longer exclusive to us. We must share it with the Ravens."
Black Cliff looked at the Level Four warriors and said, "You guys are in charge of guarding this place. Remember, do not provoke the Ravens, and do not make things difficult for them."
Several fourth rank barbarians nodded in agreement. What a joke! The Ravens had such a powerful outsider. Who would dare to cause trouble for them? Now that the Ravens had such a powerful outsider, who would dare to cause trouble for them?
"Damn the Ravens! How lucky they are! They found an outsider to rely on. And this outsider is also a weirdo. He didn't join a super strong tribe."
Black Cliff looked at the direction where Zi Chen and the others had left. He was supported by the barbarians back to the Black Tribe.
On the way, Zi Chen and Wu Man did not talk much. Wu Man was still in a state of extreme excitement. It was obvious that he had gained a lot today.
The next morning, when the two of them returned to the Ravens, the Ravens were stunned when they saw the two of them. Their faces were filled with disappointment. It took them only one day to come back. This was a sign of failure.
Zi Chen was expressionless. He looked at Wu Man's gloomy face. Wu Man ignored the barbarians and walked straight to the square, leaving the barbarians to look at his back.
His gloomy expression instantly turned into one of ecstasy when he turned his head around. He clenched his fists and shouted at the crowd, "We did it! We did it! We won against the Black Clan! In the future, we can study the statues of the God of Berserkers as we please."
The shocked and disappointed barbarians quickly reacted. Then, they burst into thunderous cheers. The barbarians were lifted up and thrown high into the air. The other barbarians also began to hug each other. Some of them even began to kiss each other excitedly.
Seeing this scene, Zi Chen quickly ran back to his room and closed the door.
The cheers outside lasted for half a day. For the Ravens, this was a big thing. With the opportunity to study the Barbarian God's statue, they also had the opportunity to rise.
In the room, Zi Chen began to study the fourth level Barbarian Technique. If he wanted to increase his physical strength, he could only study the Barbarian Technique.
The next day, the Ravens were still celebrating. Everyone was looking forward to the return of their people. When Zi Chen appeared, they looked at Zi Chen with eyes full of admiration and gratitude.
In the square, the barbarian warriors did not continue to practice their Barbarian Techniques. Instead, they all hugged a huge rock and practiced.
Among them, Wu Man carried the biggest rock. It was as big as a mountain. At the moment, he was carrying the mountain and running back and forth. Large beads of sweat dripped down his body. Looking at the barbarians carrying the rock, Zi Chen was puzzled. He asked them what they were doing.
Wu Man replied that they were training.
As soon as he said this, Zi Chen froze in place as if he had been petrified. After being petrified, it was as if he was possessed as he muttered, "Refine strength, refine strength."
At this moment, it was as if a bolt of lightning had flashed through Zi Chen's sea of consciousness. He felt as if the clouds had dispersed. He had always felt that he was lacking something, but he could not figure it out. Now that he saw Wu Man and heard what he had to say, Zi Chen finally understood.
That was training.
If one wanted to train their strength and strengthen their body, it was not as simple as refining blood essence. Before they could grow, they had to consume it.
In the past, Zi Chen had always wanted to refine all kinds of things because of his spiritual sense and elemental force. He had never tried to expend his elemental force for cultivation. Refining once or twice was a good thing for the body, as it could allow one's strength to increase by leaps and bounds. However, refining every time was a bad thing for one's strength.
In true training, only consumption was the way to go. It was like pouring water into a wooden barrel. If you wanted to pour more water into the barrel, you had to increase the volume of the barrel.
The body was like the barrel, and the blood essence of ancient beasts was the water. In the past, Zi Chen had only poured water in, but now Zi Chen had decided to increase the volume of the barrel.
At this moment, Zi Chen had finally found the way to train his body. Zi Chen also quickly thought of a suitable place for himself.
Two days later, the Black Tribe brought the Raven captives back. Apart from those who had been tortured to death, the rest had all returned.
When family met, it was inevitable that there would be sad scenes. They hugged and cried. Zi Chen could not bear to see such a scene, so he left.
"Chief Zi Chen." Zi Chen left and returned to his room. Not long after, someone came in.
When he saw that it was Black Cliff, Zi Chen was surprised. Shouldn't he be recovering? Why would he come here?
Zi Chen invited Black Cliff into the room. The chair was suitable for a human, but it was not suitable for Black Cliff to sit on.
So the two of them sat down.
Black Cliff's expression was nervous. He seemed to have something to say.
"There is something," Zi Chen said first.
After a moment of hesitation, Black Cliff spoke his mind. He did not expect to form an alliance with the Ravens.
Regarding the alliance, Zi Chen did not even think about it. Zi Chen knew why the Black Tribe and the Ravens had formed an alliance. However, the Ravens needed the Black Tribe as an ally.
The alliance was only a verbal one. There were no witnesses or signatures. Only the two of them knew about it, and only the two of them had the final say. After chatting for a while, Black Cliff stood up and said goodbye.
Out of courtesy, Zi Chen sent Black Cliff to the door. But when he reached the door, Zi Chen found that more than five hundred barbarians were standing there.
All five hundred barbarians looked at Zi Chen. Before Zi Chen could understand what was going on, the barbarians suddenly knelt down.
"What are you doing?"
Zi Chen was surprised by the Ravens' actions. He quickly went forward and tried to help the leader up.
"Leader Zi Chen, you have saved the Ravens and our loved ones. You are the benefactor of the Ravens." As he spoke, Wu Man made a gesture of kowtowing.
Zi Chen quickly stopped him, but he could not stop the barbarians.
Zi Chen had no choice but to say, "Since you call me chief, then I am a Raven. As the chief, this is what I should do for the Ravens. Everyone, get up."
The barbarians' eyes were full of gratitude, but they did not get up. Instead, they kowtowed three times to Zi Chen. After three kowtows, they got up.
"Leader Zi Chen, I'll be heading back now," Black Cliff said from the side.
Zi Chen nodded. In this situation, he could not send them off.
With so many people in the tribe, they naturally needed more food. The food that was originally enough for the tribe to eat for more than two months was rapidly reduced because the number of people had increased by more than half.
Two days later, under the leadership of Zi Chen, dozens of barbarians went out to hunt. It must be mentioned that among the barbarians, there was a woman.
The woman was Una. As a second level warrior, she seemed to be stronger than most of the male warriors. Moreover, Zi Chen could not stand being pestered by her, so he made an exception and agreed to take her with him.
In this hunt, there were many strong Ravens, so they had a lot to gain. During this time, Zi Chen went into the depths of the tribe and killed two fifth level beasts. As for the fourth level beasts, they were killed by Wu Man and the others.
Because Zi Chen had taught them the barbarian techniques, the barbarians' battle strength had greatly increased. In addition, Zi Chen had refined a powder that could heal wounds, so the barbarians' death rate had greatly decreased.
After three days, they had hunted more than five hundred barbarians and half a month's worth of food. They decided to go back.
"This is for you. If anything happens to the tribe, just break it." Before they went back, Zi Chen gave Wu Man a jade pendant.
"Chief Zi Chen, you are not going back?" Wu Man, who was carrying the corpse of the fifth level beast, asked.
When the other barbarians heard this, they all looked at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen shook his head and said, "No, I want to stay here and train. This place is more suitable for me. And you, after you have settled the tribe's matters, you can come find me here. As a fourth level warrior, lifting stones all day will not improve much."
Hearing that Zi Chen was only going to train and not leave, the barbarians all let out a sigh of relief.
After reminding Zi Chen to be careful, they all carried the resources and headed towards the Ravens.
