Chapter 1056: Witch Clan and Bone Artifacts
The appearance of the Wu Clan is not much different from that of the Human Clan, at most they are taller and stronger. However, going back to the ancient times before ancient times, the ancestral witches of the Wu clan are all in the form of gods and demons with bird heads and human bodies, animal heads and human bodies. As for the ancestor witch, from the beginning of the great witch, he has been very close to the human race, but his body is still relatively large, and he still belongs to the "giant".
The changes in the Wu Clan's image most directly show the continuous decline of the Wu Clan's bloodline. The strength of the witch clan relies on bloodlines, and the decline of bloodlines brings about the decline of strength. They can only retreat from the center of the stage to the edge step by step.
Of course, even such a witch clan is not completely without merit. For example, the unique body training method of the witch clan is much stronger than the body training technique of the human race. No matter how much the human race tries to train their body, it's just to "enhance their body". After all, there will be a limit. However, the Wu Clan's body refining method has no upper limit in theory, and it even claims to be able to sanctify the body.
Even now, the blood of the witch clan has declined, and the sanctification of the flesh has become a legend, but the heights that can be reached are still beyond the reach of the human race. The Heaven-reaching level powerhouses in the Witch Clan simply rely on their physical strength to compete with the Heaven-reaching level cultivators. Those sorcerers who have awakened their bloodline supernatural powers are like ascetics who possess the Dao realm, and they are also unmatched by ordinary ascetics of the same level.
Regarding the level of strength, don't say why the Wu Clan is also divided according to the realm of the Human Clan. Who said that the Human Clan is the protagonist of this world today. On the human side, whether it is against the witch race, the monster race, the dragon race or even the extraterrestrial demons, they are all classified according to their own strength standards.
This is not to say that humans love to be lazy, but it makes sense. After all, I want to know your strength, and the best reference is myself. I am a cultivation base of Yuanshen Realm, and I know what the strength of Yuanshen Realm is, so if the other party is also at Yuanshen level, it means that our strength is equivalent.
There are also desolate beasts, you said that they are in the juvenile or growth stage, which indeed can explain their strength. However, what is the strength of the desolate beast in its infancy? Compared with its cultivation at the Golden Core Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm, who is higher and who is lower? In the end, you still have to make a conversion, and you still have to use your own strength as the standard to see if you can deal with the opponent.
So, regardless of the witch clan, demon clan, dragon clan, etc., how do you judge your own strength realm? On the human race side, it is all at the foundation level, Jindan level, Yuanying level, etc.
The tribe of the Wu clan that Ye Zan visited claimed to have the blood of the ancient ancestor Wu Zhurong, and the leader of the tribe was a powerful man of the sky-reaching level, and possessed the supernatural power of the bloodline to resist fire. In addition to the patriarch, there are five elders, two of them are at the level of Faxiang, and three are at the level of Yuanshen, which can be regarded as a relatively powerful tribe.
Compared with the tribe of ascetics that Ye Zan had been to before, this Wu tribe did not have an imbalance between men and women, but had a ratio sufficient to maintain the reproduction of the tribe. The reason is that the lifespan of the witch race is not like that of the human race, which needs to be increased by cultivation. It is a so-called "longevity species", both men and women.
As for the human race, if you don't practice, you will only have a lifespan of less than a hundred years. Every time you improve a realm, you will increase your lifespan. If you don't improve, you can only wait to die of old age. Although it is not impossible for women to practice Taoism, from the perspective of big data, it is indeed more difficult than men to practice Taoism. This difficulty is not all due to qualifications, but mainly because women are hindered by some things, such as the most fundamental damage to childbearing.
And this has led to the fact that among the tribes of human ascetics, female ascetics face a choice compared to male ascetics. Either it is to reproduce offspring, and the price is likely to be that no matter how difficult it is to advance in the realm, it is impossible to increase the lifespan. Or, it is to refuse to reproduce offspring, like male monks, to increase lifespan through practice.
But no matter how you choose, such a tribe of human ascetics will eventually lead to an imbalance in the ratio of men to women. This is also why, ascetics are so lofty, they regard secular mortals as existences like ants,
But he didn't dare to destroy these ants at will. After all, it is difficult for the human race to reproduce normally only relying on monks, and the root of everything lies in the secular mortals.
Ye Zan did not rush to leave here immediately after trading Qianli Chuanshen and firearms with the Wu Clan, but tentatively asked the patriarch about the method of body training. After all, he has two little fellows on his side, both of whom are more suitable for the method of body refining. Even if the method of the Wu clan cannot be directly applied, there will always be some reference value.
"Patriarch, I am quite interested in the Wu Clan's body refining method and the making of bone tools. I don't know if there is a chance to ask the Patriarch for advice?" Ye Zan asked the Wu Clan patriarch very politely. asked.
From the habit of ascetics, it is definitely a very offensive behavior to ask about a person's cultivation method and the method of refining magic weapons. However, the witch race is different from the human race, or different from the ascetics, and they don't have the habit of cherishing these things. The reason is not generosity or stupidity, but because of their things, others know that there is no way to learn them.
After all, the Wu Clan is still a Wu Clan, and there is a huge difference in blood from the Human Clan, even if they look similar now. It’s as if the human ancestor Homo sapiens in the world of science and technology, and the existence of Denisovans, Neanderthals and the like at the same time, may look similar, but in fact there are quite a few differences.
Therefore, even if a cultivator knows the body refining method of the Wu Clan and how bone tools are made, it is useless without the blood of the Wu Clan. Since this is the case, the Wu Clan doesn't dare to offend them. As the human race who are the protagonists of the world, then simply let you watch and learn. If you can't learn it, you can't blame me.
"Fellow Daoists should know that the body training method of my Wu Clan is not suitable for you ascetics, right?" the Wu Clan patriarch asked curiously.
In fact, at least before the collapse of the world, due to the more exchanges between the Wu Clan and the Human Clan, the Wu Clan's body refining method and bone tool making can no longer be said to be secrets. It's just that later, the ascetics have been verified and know that these things can't be used by themselves, so they gradually stop paying attention to these things.
In other words, although these special abilities of the witch clan may no longer be well-known. However, ascetics at least know that those methods of the Wu Clan cannot be learned unless you have the blood of the Wu Clan. But the problem is, if you have the blood of the witch race, you won't be able to learn from the human race, and you won't be able to become a monk.
"I know this, so I took the liberty to ask the patriarch for advice, otherwise I would not have the face to say this. I don't want to practice, I just want to get some inspiration from it, maybe I can be on my own path Make a breakthrough." Ye Zan didn't mention the matter of his daughter and apprentice, but only said that he wanted to refer to it.
Some things are like this, he knows that it is useless for you to get it, so he will show you things without caring. If it is useful for you to take it out, even if there is no loss in taking it out here, he may hold it tightly and not show it to you. Therefore, Ye Zan only said that he used it as a reference, and did not mention that his daughter and apprentice might use it.
Of course, having said that, even if he got the Wu Clan's body training method, Ye Zan would not just throw it to the two little guys to learn. His words were not false, and he would only use this as a reference, combined with other information he had obtained, to find a more suitable path for the two little guys.
"Since this is the case, fellow daoist has brought so many good things to our clan, how can I not even give this little face." The Wu Clan patriarch was really not stingy, and waved for the people next to him to get things.
After a while, someone came in from the outside, holding a stone slab in his arms, on which were densely engraved with the characters of the Wu tribe. Since the Wu people do not cultivate the primordial spirit and do not have the power of spiritual consciousness and mind, it is naturally impossible to use jade slips or bone slips to record information like monks. They still use a relatively primitive way of recording information, which is to carve their own words on stone slabs.
"Fellow Daoist, it's not that I'm being stingy, it's just that this stone slab is an inheritance of our clan. There is no way to give it to you. You can only let you watch it here. Please forgive me." The patriarch of the Wu Clan was very polite. Said, the words are full of the accent of the human race.
"The patriarch is serious, I have to thank the patriarch!" Ye Zan hurriedly bowed his hands and took the stone slab.
The stone slab itself is not that big, it is about half the size of a human body, and it is engraved with petite characters on it. Of course, that character is the ancient character of the Wu race, not the character of the human race, and the font is not like lower case.
The patriarch of the Wu Clan sat back at his place, looked at Ye Zan holding the slate in his hand, and asked curiously: "Fellow Daoist Wuji, the ancient characters used on this slate are my Wu Clan's ancient characters, do you need an explanation?"
Ye Zan also sat back on his seat, raised his eyes from the stone slab, and said modestly and confidently: "That's no need, I happen to know a little about the ancient characters of various ethnic groups, so I should be able to read them." You have to understand. If there is something that I really don’t understand, I will ask the patriarch for advice, and I will ask the patriarch not to be annoyed.”
As for the ancient characters of the Wu clan, Ye Zan had never come into contact with them before, but this did not affect the understanding of the meaning on the slate. In fact, the ancient characters of the Wu people, like the runes of the Dao, belong to the summary and interpretation of the laws of heaven and earth. Therefore, with Ye Zan's cultivation base, it is not so difficult to understand the ancient characters on the stone slab.
Ye Zan returned to the slate after responding to the patriarch of the Wu clan. While scanning the words on the slate, he had actually completed the work of taking pictures and archiving. In other words, even now, the patriarch of the Wu clan took back the slate, and the information on the slate was still kept in Ye Zan's database, so he could continue to analyze the content.
However, in order to avoid being misunderstood, Ye Zan did not return the slate immediately after the work of "photographing and archiving" was completed, but actually started to read the content on it.
What is recorded in the stone slab is not only the body refining method of the Wu clan, but also the method of making bone tools of the Wu clan that Ye Zan mentioned earlier. The method of body training can't be seen now, and if you want to really gain something, you need to spend time studying it carefully later. Therefore, when Ye Zan was reading the slate, he focused his energy on the more curious bone tool making.
Only the bone wares made by the Wu clan are called bone wares, and the ascetics only use the bones of wild animals to refine magic weapons and magic wares. There is a fundamental difference between the two.
The magic weapon and magic weapon are essentially to fix the spell on the real object and cast it when needed. Therefore, no matter whether you have wood, metal, stone or bone, as long as it meets this characteristic, it is a magic weapon or magic weapon.
The bone artifacts of the Wu clan are all the essence, blood and soul of the living beings condensed on one bone, and this bone becomes a bone artifact. There are two ways to use the bone tool. One is to directly release the power in it, just like summoning the creatures condensed in it, and send a blow to the enemy. Another way to use it is to apply power to oneself, allowing oneself to have the power of the living beings condensed.
When the Witch Clan made bone tools, they first tossed the target desolate beasts or other creatures into a state of near-death. Then use a special sacrificial ceremony, using a certain characteristic of the blood of the witch clan as a guide, to forcibly condense the blood and soul of the creature in one place. Some will be condensed on the skull of the living being, and some will be condensed on the sternum of the living being. There is no fixed choice, and it depends on how to do it better.
After completing the ceremony, the creature seemed to be swallowed up by the bone, and the so-called bone tool was obtained directly without the need for the Wu clan to dissect it. In addition, bone tools do not need to be sacrificed and warmed as often as magic weapons, but the strength can be improved by refining the same bone tools. For example, if you use a tiger to refine a bone vessel, if you want to continuously increase the power of this bone vessel, you need to let it "swallow" other tiger bone vessels.
Of course, this kind of "swallowing" of bone tools is not without an upper limit, and the upper limit depends on its own quality. The higher the bone implement, the higher the upper limit, and the strength can be increased by "swallowing" more bone implements of the same type. As for low-level bone tools, not only will their own strength not be much stronger, but they will not be able to continuously improve like "gathering sand into a tower".
But having said that, how rare are high-grade bone tools, let alone bone tools of the same kind. Therefore, even if it is "upgraded" by continuously devouring similar bone tools, it is very difficult for anyone to do that in reality. This also means that the value of a truly top-notch bone tool may not be lower than that of a top-grade magic weapon.
After reading the content of the slate, Ye Zan returned the slate to the chief of the Wu tribe. The auxiliary chip has uploaded the information to the research center of the War Fortress to analyze and study the bone tools of the Wu tribe. He had traded a few bone tools in the Moyi domain before, but unfortunately they were all broken and incomplete "garbage". The information he researched was very limited, but it can be regarded as a research foundation. Now, combined with the contents of the most original Witch Clan heritage stone tablet, maybe some results can really be researched.
