Chapter 1243: Chapter 478: Mountain Gathering_2

Nine Realms Sky thought about it and decided to protect the man’s dignity by not saying anything.

After venting, the Great Chieftain sat down with a sigh of regret, "What a pity for the hundreds of Heaven’s Chosen of the Northern Plain in recent years."

Like Owen Bertram, Nine Realms Sky was also puzzled: At first, the Great Chieftain worked with Borg to send living people to the Ancient Annihilation Domain to be devoured by the Witch Barbarian. Instead of sacrificing an entire generation of Heaven’s Chosen, why not use ordinary people? After all, they were the future of the 36 Tribes of the Northern Region.

She didn’t ask this question, and the Great Chieftain wouldn’t answer it either. This secret was only known to the Great Chieftain himself: According to the analysis of previous Great Chieftains, although Borg’s Witch Barbarian used two divine artifacts to preserve his self-consciousness, this method was still quite crude compared to that of a cultivator and wasn’t foolproof.

In addition to the two divine artifacts, there were other supplementary means. Even so, when he revived, he still needed to devour a large number of living beings, not only to replenish the Witch Barbarian’s blood, but also to supplement the power of the soul.

The devoured souls would also affect Borg’s self-consciousness. The stronger and more spiritual these souls were, the more beneficial it would be for Borg, but it would also leave hidden dangers. These powerful souls that had gone through cultivation would dilute his self-consciousness to a certain extent.

The stronger the soul and the higher its spirituality, the greater the dilution effect.

The souls of the Heaven’s Chosen possessed much higher spirituality than ordinary people. This was the Great Chieftain’s goal: If Borg’s self-consciousness was severely weakened, it would be easier for him to control the powerful Witch Barbarian.

Moreover, the Great Chieftain was increasingly worried about the Heaven’s Chosen who were of the same generation as the Saintess of North Ice. They had all been in contact with the Sang Island National Teacher. Originally, the Great Chieftain had no intention of reusing this generation of people, so he decided to "recycle" them instead.

At this point, Nine Realms Sky informed him, "I’ve penetrated my power back into the Snow Mountain Ancient Destruction Domain, and another Heaven’s Chosen has survived."

The Great Chieftain was alarmed, "There’s a survivor?" He must be silenced! This last survivor probably knows the whole truth of the incident. If she goes out and spreads the news, where would the Great Chieftain’s face be?

Nine Realms Sky secretly thought as expected, and her disappointment in this irresponsible man grew. She told the Great Chieftain that the survivor had already escaped from the Snow Mountain Ancient Destruction Domain.

Anyway, I won’t help you kill anyone, especially a young girl, to silence her.

Windsor wasn’t stupid - Glenn Mitchell had been the only one who thought she was naïve all along, so there must be a real fool between the two, but we won’t say who - as soon as Windsor left the Snow Mountain Ancient Destruction Domain, she immediately contacted her own tribe with her witchcraft instrument and asked them to assist her.

By the time the Great Chieftain arrived, Windsor had already reunited with thousands of her tribe’s snow wolf knights. Even though the Great Chieftain had the power to kill them all by himself, it had become difficult for him to make a move.

Windsor had a private conversation with the Great Chieftain and struck a deal, promising not to reveal any truth. The Great Chieftain reluctantly let her go. Windsor didn’t stay silent about the truth; she just knew that now wasn’t the right time. She needed to develop quietly and wait for an opportunity to strike the Great Chieftain fatally!

And then, I will lead the entire 36 Tribes of the Northern Region into the embrace of the civilized, elegant, and advanced Wood Dynasty!

...

Upon returning to the Summit Metropolitan Office, Owen Bertram sensed Nine Realms Sky’s ever-present "attention." She was urging him to give the benefits to Little Grape soon.

Owen Bertram took his sister and three little ones back to the Summit Outpost. As he entered the backyard, he clearly felt the Fern shiver - not due to Owen Bertram, but because of Verna, who poked her head out from behind him.

Just look at how Verna has caused the Fern to grow more branches, leaves, and even a few inches taller during her time away!

Owen Bertram was about to scatter the debris of the [Earth Creation Bottle] and [Mountain Pulling Whip] onto the Gold Soil when Verna stopped him with a serious look: "Elder Brother, that’s not how you use it."

"Hmm?" Owen handed everything over to Verna and watched as she put on a serious expression, stepping in a special way in the backyard, leaving footprints. She then chose some specific spots and dug holes of varying depths, and only after dividing the debris into portions of different weights did she wrap them in fragments of the [Ancestral Witch Battle Robe] and bury them.

Throughout the process, Elder Brother seemed to notice some clues: Verna’s footsteps were similar to those of other cultivators, as well as the shamans’ dance steps in the witch priest system. Where she buried the items was also reminiscent of witch seals and magical arrays, but not quite the same - it seemed to be a case of... a shared Great Path?

However, Elder Brother couldn’t really say he had understood it all.

But as soon as these things were buried, the spirit plants in the backyard visibly thrived even more and, given time, would grow more prosperously.

Owen simply gave the remaining [Ancestral Witch Battle Robe] to Verna: "You take care of them." Verna nodded firmly: "Don’t worry, Elder Brother, the harvest will be excellent."

Owen didn’t know if it was an illusion, but he thought he saw the fern shudder again.

[Nine Realms Sky] was very satisfied with the current situation, as it seemed that Little Grape was benefiting more. She stopped pestering Owen for the time being.

Owen stayed at the Summit Guard Post for one night, planning to return to the Summit Metropolitan Office the following day. But in the middle of the night, he opened his eyes to see hazy spiritual light rising from the backyard where Verna had buried the debris during the day.

The Summit Guard Post was originally on a cliff by the water’s edge, with a treacherous terrain. However, now, under the convergence of these lights, the earth’s energies and forces of the mountain range swirled around, slowly pushing the cliff higher and causing the surrounding mountains to grow as well...

The military officers stationed at the outpost were also awakened, and Owen whispered: "Don’t panic."

By the time dawn broke, everything finally settled down, and the cliff where the Summit Guard Post was now stood as the highest peak in the entire mountain range! The surrounding peaks were also more than half the height of the others in the area!

At this moment, standing in the Summit Guard Post, one could see the white clouds a few hundred feet below them and look down on the rest of the smaller mountains.

This mountain range could be called a place of "brilliant people and exceptional land." Over time, the number of spirit plants and spirit beasts in the mountains gradually increased. Cultivators training here would be able to break through faster than their peers, and this advantage would become more and more evident with the progress of the Origin Resurgence.

Even though Owen had given strict orders not to deliberately publicize such an extraordinary event and to handle it as low-key as possible, word still gradually spread. It became part of his many "achievements," and those who thought highly of him became even more convinced that he would become the most important person in the future of the Wood Dynasty. Many ambitious individuals began to join him without any hesitation.

A few days later, Owen received news from the Bat Taoist in the Red Clan Barbarian Continent: a new expeditionary force had been created in Boneset Country, and it was about to set off for the Eastern Land!

The fact that they were able to get this intelligence was largely due to the three Tier-6 Demon Lords. Usually, slave hunters only operated near the coast, so their infiltration of the Red Clan was limited. The Demon Lords, however, introduced many new techniques to infiltrate Boneset Country and build a network of informants: their goal was to know which Red Clan nobles were truly wealthy and which ones were just empty shells... and then rob them!

Under various demonic techniques, this intelligence network gradually began to take shape. The large-scale plans of the expeditionary force wouldn’t remain a secret for long, so they informed the Demon Lords in advance.

To avoid those pesky pirates, the home port for this expeditionary fleet was set up in a less-than-ideal harbor in the north of Boneset Country. The cold climate meant that there were few wealthy nobles here, and even the Bat Taoist and "Death Bonsai" had only made a quick visit.

The Demon Lords also obtained another important piece of information: "The Red Clan specifically conducted a massive sacrifice to target Owen this time. Their evil god, the Flame of Stars, has granted a powerful divine artifact that can supposedly counter Owen’s abilities in every aspect. The evil god has instructed the expeditionary force to capture Owen’s soul and bring it back to Boneset Country, where they will offer it as a sacrifice in the grand temple!"

Upon receiving this news, the Bat Taoist was extremely worried because it involved an evil god. However, Owen was puzzled - how could the Flame of Stars dare to claim such a power against him when he did not specialize in just one aspect like ordinary cultivators?
