CHAPTER 1044: CHAPTER 1041: THE FOUR GREAT TOTEMS!

The fighting had lasted for seven days and nights, and the Barbaric Northern Land was now littered with corpses and rivers of blood.

The newly unified Azure Dragon Tribe faced internal troubles endlessly. The Clan Leader Klu was no exceptional genius; he was so overwhelmed that he couldn’t stabilize the situation at all.

Had it not been for Li Chen, who trained a new army before his departure to serve as a backbone force, blocking the charges from the Four Great Tribes like the Hua Xie and Teng Snake at a crucial moment, the battle would have been in deadlock.

Otherwise, they would have been completely crushed on the first day, and their defeat would have been catastrophic.

"Clan Leader, the enemy’s offensive is too fierce; the brothers at the front are about to be overwhelmed. Our great Totem, as well as the two Divine Envoys, haven’t they come out yet? If they don’t show up soon, our Azure Dragon Tribe will be finished!"

Tribe Commanders approached one after another to inquire about the whereabouts of the Totem and Divine Envoy from Clan Leader Klu.

Hearing these inquiries from the tribe commanders and warriors, Clan Leader Klu found himself overwhelmed.

The Totem and two Divine Envoys had fled half a year ago; where on earth could he find them?

But he couldn’t reveal the truth.

The Totem and Divine Envoys were the spiritual pillars of their Azure Dragon Tribe.

If the tribesmen knew this harsh truth, the warriors fighting bravely at the front, their spiritual pillars would instantly collapse, leading to a loss of morale and defeat as though an avalanche had hit them.

Moreover, the warriors from the Mammoth Giant Elephant and Divine Turtle Tribes they had previously annexed were already not of one mind with them.

If they found out the truth and fled on their own, it would be a minor issue. Worse would be if they turned against them in battle to avenge their tribesmen who died half a year ago.

In such a case, their entire Azure Dragon Tribe would indeed face a catastrophic disaster.

Not even surviving like they did before rising would be possible; they might very well be wiped off the Barbaric map and cease to exist.

This was extermination of the tribe!

Thinking of this, Klu’s tall body couldn’t help but tremble uncontrollably.

But even so, he forced himself to remain calm and shouted loudly, "Everyone, don’t panic, don’t panic. I just communicated with the Divine Envoy. The Divine Envoy says our great Totem is at the critical moment of evolution and will soon succeed. If everyone can hold on a little longer, the final victory will surely belong to our Azure Dragon Tribe!"

When Klu first said this, it was a shot in the arm to the tribesmen of the Azure Dragon Tribe.

However, after repeating it more than a dozen times without the appearance of the Totem and Divine Envoys, the effect had greatly diminished.

Only the new army personally trained by Li Chen maintained a certain combat effectiveness. Other tribe warriors had no fighting spirit and retreated repeatedly.

Had it not been for the opponent also fearing the Totem and Divine Envoys, not launching a full-scale attack, they might have already become cold corpses on this Barbaric Land.

The phenomenon of deserters had already emerged!

At first, it was other subservient tribes.

Later on, even the direct descendants of the Azure Dragon Tribe began small-scale defections.

The situation was extremely severe, reaching a critical juncture of life and death.

On the hillside, Clan Leader Teng Ge’er of the Teng Snake Tribe, Clan Leader Hua Xiezi of the Hua Xie Tribe, Great Commander Hua Bao of the Leopard Jackal Tribe, and Leader Sang Bei of the Sang Lang Tribe, along with various Elders and leaders, were all gathered there, overlooking the battle below.

Teng Ge’er, with a sinister smile, said, "It seems the Azure Dragon Tribe is no more than this!"

Hua Xiezi, always cautious, said with some concern, "Didn’t they say the Azure Dragon Tribe has a Totem and two Divine Envoys? Why haven’t they appeared yet? Could there be a trick?"

Sang Bei took over, saying sinisterly, "Heh heh, I think their Totem and Divine Envoys, seeing the situation as unfavorable, have probably long since fled!"

Hua Bao followed suit and said, "Leader Sang Bei is right. The Totem fleeing is no unheard-of thing for the Azure Dragon Tribe!"

Hua Xiezi was still somewhat uneasy and reminded, "Everyone, don’t underestimate the enemy, lest we fall into an ambush by the Azure Dragon Tribe. By then, it would be too late to regret!"

"Hua Clan Patriarch, you women are good in every way, except you’re too timid. Besides, it’s not like only the Azure Dragon Tribe has a Totem; don’t our Four Great Tribes have Totems too?"

"Exactly, their Azure Dragon Tribe’s Totem might be formidable, but it’s just one Totem, while we Four Great Tribes have four Totems. With four against one, I don’t believe they can’t be exterminated!"

Teng Ge’er looked up at the sun above his head and said, "I propose we perform a ritual now, summon the Totem of each tribe to fight. Let’s strive to conquer the Azure Dragon Tribe before sunset!"

"Our Leopard Jackal Tribe agrees. I heard the women of the Azure Dragon Tribe often bathe in the Dragon River, their skin so tender you can squeeze water out of it. This time, Laozi must snatch a few home to try them out!"

"Hua Bao, you can grab a few more of the Azure Dragon Tribe’s women. But their herbal medicine and Spirit Stones, we’ll take more for our Sang Lang Tribe!"

"Then our Teng Snake Tribe will want their mines and pastures..."

Everyone spoke one after another, starting to divide up the spoils.

Immediately, they ordered their tribe warriors to pound the war drums and sound the retreat.

Preparing offerings of five livestock for worship, invoking their Totems for the final deadly blow to the Azure Dragon Tribe!

"Awoo, awoo!"

The first to emerge was the Totem of the Sang Lang Tribe!

Black Wood Sang Wolf!

Its size was comparable to a Mammoth Giant Elephant, howling toward the sky, capable of devouring the sun and moon.

Seeing it appear, the Sang Lang Tribe fired up as if injected with adrenaline, constantly chanting "Totem forever."

"Zzla, zzla!"

The second to appear was the Totem of the Hua Xie Tribe.

Flame Poison Scorpion!

This Flame Poison Scorpion, although not as large as the Black Wood Sang Wolf, was entirely covered in orange-red flames, and its reversed hook poison thorns could sting even a Nascent Soul Great Power to death, absolutely not to be underestimated.

The Flame Poison Scorpion’s appearance excited the Hua Xie Tribe as well.

"Woo woo!"

The third to appear was the Totem of the Flower Leopard Tribe!

Single-Horned Dragon Leopard!

Legend has it that this is a descendant of a dragon and a leopard, possessing bloodlines of ancient fierce beasts, with a single horn on its head that could shatter mountains and crush stones.

"Roar roar!"

As the climax and final appearance, was the Totem of the Teng Snake Tribe.

Black Water Snake!

As soon as it appeared, it stirred the wind and clouds, its momentum far surpassing the other three tribes’ Totems.

So much so that the Black Wood Sang Wolf, Single-Horned Dragon Leopard, and Flame Poison Scorpion all showed varying degrees of fear when they saw it.

"Six, sixth-level Totem?"

Seeing this scene, the other tribe members were stunned and speechless.

Sixth-level Totem, that’s a Sixth-level Demon Beast!

The Totems of the other three tribes, Black Wood Sang Wolf, Single-Horned Dragon Leopard, and Flame Poison Scorpion, were only at the peak late stage of Fifth-level Demon Beasts, weaker by a level compared to it.

All Totems of the Four Great Tribes appeared one after another.

The warriors of their respective tribes were also roused with excitement, all staring at the fat lamb known as the Azure Dragon Tribe below the mountain as if they were hungry wolves after three days and nights.

At their leaders’ command, they would charge over with unstoppable force, devouring the fat lamb clean.

And as the "fat lamb," the Azure Dragon Tribe was currently in a state of panic and unease. Each felt as if a Sword of Damocles hovered above their heads, possibly falling at any moment to claim their lives...
