Chapter 222 Faith
A total of three people came from the Wan clan. The leader was a seventh-level strongman named Wan Xu, who had reached his peak.
Chu Zheng and Lie lived in the same room. When Wan came to the door, they had just settled in.
In order to carry as many people as possible, the houses on the Tianluan Flying Boat were built densely and narrowly. The houses were a little cramped. Now that there are a few more people, it immediately seems a little crowded, and the air circulation becomes difficult. Somewhat rough.
“Lie, where do these weapons come from?”
Wan Xu glanced at the talisman soldiers piled in the corner and went straight to the point without beating around the bush.
He looks to be in his thirties. At first glance, he is younger than Lie. He is wearing a luxurious brocade robe with talisman patterns flowing on it. He is a fifth-level talisman soldier.
The Wangshan tribe is originally a tribe under the protection of the Wan clan. Wan Xu and Lie seem to have known each other for a long time, and there is no need for any courtesy at all.
Lie and Chu Zheng looked not surprised at all. Lie stood up and took out a talisman and handed it to Wan Xu.
“This is a weapon made from spiritual minerals.”
Lie opened his mouth to explain, then motioned Chu Zheng to step forward, fetched a piece of low-level spiritual ore on the spot, and started smelting it.
Wan Xu watched silently without saying anything to disturb.
Half an hour later, a first-level talisman weapon had taken shape in Chu Zheng's hands.
“Take stone into a weapon?!”
Wan Xu reached out and took the talisman weapon in Chu Zheng’s hand, his eyes widened, and he almost instantly captured the huge benefits hidden in it.
Compared with refining weapons with animal bones, this kind of spiritual ore that can be shaped is undoubtedly much more convenient.
“Who discovered this?!” After coming back to his senses, Wan Xu stared at Lie with some excitement, ignoring Chu Zheng beside him.
Lie pointed at Chu Zheng beside him and said slowly: "It's him, his name is Zhengchu."
Chu Zheng had already discussed this matter with Lie and was ready to Inform the Wan Clan Alliance about the spiritual mine weapon refining.
With the power of the Wangshan tribe, it was impossible to keep this secret and directly handed it over to the Wan family in exchange for some benefits.
Furthermore, Chu Zheng also needs to pass the Wan family to thoroughly spread the word Zhengchu to all major tribes along with the method of refining ores and turning them into soldiers, so as to build momentum for him in the future.
It will be much easier to build your reputation first and then try to create a god later. At least you will have some foundation.
"Oh? This child?"
Wan Xu stared at Chu Zheng with a trace of doubt in his eyes: "Zhengchu? Isn't he from the Wangshan tribe?"
The Wangshan tribe has no surname, and this 'proper' surname does not seem to be a large clan with a name and surname.
The next moment, his expression was slightly stagnant, and he looked at Chu Zheng, full of disbelief: "Have you entered adulthood?"
His attention had been on the spiritual mine just now. After looking carefully at this moment, he He immediately discovered the powerful Qi and blood dormant in Chu Zheng.
Even if it is an ordinary totem monk with extraordinary talents, it will take at least twenty or thirty years, or even longer, to reach adulthood.
He became an adult before he was ten years old. Even within the entire Wan Clan Alliance, there has never been such an example, which is incredible.
"Indeed not." Lie nodded and said, "I rescued him from the wilderness. I don't know which tribe he is from."
Wan Xu suddenly reached out his hand, pulled Chu Zheng to his side, and peeled off the animal skin wrapped around his body. After groping and looking around for a while, he felt even more incredible:
“He’s just a second-class person. Totem, if you are less than ten years old, you are an adult?”
The strength of a totem can determine how quickly a person grows.
The number of totems that a witch can carve every year is limited. Carving a first-class totem would be a huge loss. Naturally, it is impossible to carve a first-class totem for every newborn.
In most cases, even for the Wan family, newborns usually only have second-class totems, and then between the ages of five and ten, they will get a chance to change their totems.
Those who grow faster, eat more, and naturally have higher talents will get more resources.
Occasionally, there will be some special cases. For example, if the parents and ancestors have extremely high qualifications and have grown very fast in all generations, the newborn's first totem will be first-class.
But even a first-class totem cannot grow as fast as Zhengchu!
Recovering, Wan Xu turned his head to look at Lie and asked: "How much does he eat every day?!"
"Six bowls of adult wild beast essence and blood."
Lie didn't hide anything. He fed Chu Zheng animal blood every day and knew his appetite very well.
Hearing this, Wan Xu couldn't help but exclaimed, staring at Chu Zheng, as if seeing a treasure: "It's amazing."
A bowl of blood essence is equivalent to half a wild beast, the leader of the tribe. For an ordinary adult warrior, one bowl would be enough to supply his needs for three days.
The appetite of the child in front of me can almost equal that of twenty adult warriors. This is too exaggerated
“A child under ten years old is not only extremely talented, but also so smart. ?" Wan Xu looked at Chu Zheng with a little surprise in his eyes: "How did you find out that this stone can refine weapons?"
Chu Zheng was naturally prepared for this, so he spoke immediately and made up a story.
While hunting in the wilderness, he encountered a wild beast. During the fight, the beast transformed the spiritual mineral into a liquid. After cooling, it deformed. He suddenly had a whim, took the liquid to condense the soldiers, and carved the runes. Therefore, he discovered He learned the method of refining ore into weapons.
This kind of story, Chu Zhengxin can easily make up several stories at will. As for its authenticity, as long as it is barely plausible and has a certain degree of rationality, no one will care too much.
Fundamentally speaking, how it was discovered is not important. What is important is the value brought by the discovery of the spiritual mine.
“The blessings are really profound, maybe this is God’s blessing for our human race!”
Wan Xu didn't have much doubt, and his face was full of irrepressible joy.
"Lie, how about sending Zhengchu to Wan's family?"
Wan Xu turned his head and looked at Lie, and said with discussion: "If he is in Wan's family, he will have a better life. For his future, I will ask the Great Witch to replace him with a first-class totem and train him carefully."
At this moment, he had already put aside the matter of the spiritual mine and started thinking about Chu Zheng.
"Zhengchu has passed his coming-of-age ceremony. He can make his own decisions. I will not interfere." Lie did not give an answer, but gave the choice to Chu Zheng himself.
From the bottom of his heart, he did not want Zhengchu to join the Wan family, but considering Zhengchu's future, joining the Wan family was undoubtedly a better choice.
Among the Wan Clan, there are powerful peak desolate beast flesh and blood, stronger secret medicines that can enhance the blood energy foundation, and a large number of first-class totems to choose from.
No matter from any perspective, the Wan clan is far superior to the Wangshan tribe.
"Zhengchu, do you want to come with me? Wanshi can give you better resources."
Wan Xu looked at Chu Zheng and extended an olive branch again.
After a slight hesitation, Chu Zheng shook his head: "I want to think about it later."
Joining the Wan clan now is not a good choice. There are too many strong people around him, which will hinder him from making gods.
No one is willing to worship a weak person, and the strength of the Wangshan tribe is just right.
Chu Zheng doesn’t know how long this incarnation can last, but it is unrealistic to step into the seventh or even eighth level. He may not be able to last until that time, and it will require a lot of effort. time, at least thousands of years.
According to his original plan, he would stay in the Dongyuan Realm for more than a hundred years at most, and then turn his attention back to his true body. After all, this is just an incarnation, not all of him. "Don't worry. When you want to join the Wan family, just tell me. You can do it at any time."
Wan Xu was not in a hurry, looked at Lie aside, and brought the topic back to the spiritual mine and weapon refining:
"This time, I will remember your contribution to the Wangshan tribe, hunting beasts. After the Daqing, the rewards will be sent to the tribe. After I verify this method within the Tongqi clan, I will promote it in the entire alliance in the name of Zhengchu. "
Hearing this, Chu Zheng was a little surprised. He was still thinking about how to get Wan to agree to bind this method to the word "Zhengchu", but he didn't expect that he wouldn't need to bother at all.
"Why in the name of Zhengchu?" Lie frowned slightly, a little confused.
This is tantamount to pushing Zhengchu to the forefront, attracting too much attention, and causing a lot of trouble.
When he thinks about the problem, he is more from the perspective of Zhengchu. Attracting too much attention will bring a lot of trouble to Zhengchu and the Wangshan tribe.
The smile on Wan Xu's face faded, and he said solemnly: "Today's human race needs a miracle."
When his cultivation has reached his level, he is far away from the peak of Dongyuan Realm. With only one step left, he saw far more than Lie.
Facing the wild beasts, today's human race is gradually retreating and needs some special strength to maintain confidence and support this increasingly desperate world.
Zhengchu is a miracle. He will use the method of refining minerals to form weapons to make Zhengchu's name resound throughout the Dongyuan World.
With Zhengchu's talent, it is only a matter of time before he grows up. He will further exaggerate Zhengchu's talent, even demonize it, and let everyone know as much as possible that the human race is blessed by God.
The power brought by faith is sometimes no weaker than a totem, even if it can only last for a while.
Such examples have existed in the past. Although they are fleeting like meteors, they can ultimately help the human race maintain stability for a period of time.
At least, before Zhengchu passed away, many people would have some hope.

The speed of the Tianluan flying boat was extremely exaggerated. In less than two days, it crossed the realms and entered the wasteland.
The hunting grounds of the three-party clan alliance of the human race are not far from each other and stand on three sides. The other two clans have already arrived first.
There is a slight difference between the sky in the wasteland and the nine realms. There are hundreds of millions of miles without clouds, and the temperature emitted by the sun is even more terrifying.
With the scorching sun above Chu Zheng's head, he felt that the movement of Yuan Qi in his body had accelerated a lot, and the Yang Qi in his body was rising, giving rise to some restlessness.
Everywhere you look, you can see barren mountains, forests, grasslands and Gobi deserts. You can often see huge black figures moving forward in the mountains, and their footsteps will make a loud rumble when they fall.
The air seemed to be filled with the smell of blood, and bones could be seen everywhere.
After everyone left the flying boat, the mountain-like divine bird once again fluttered its wings and hovered in the sky. There were also several peak experts who had set foot in the eighth-level realm sitting on it.
What they need to guard against are threats that may emerge outside the hunting grounds.
The hunt for beasts in Daqing is also an extremely risky activity for the human race.
There were also accidents in the previous beast-hunting Daqing. More than a dozen wild beasts in their prime broke into the hunting ground and killed most of the elites of the human race. The human race almost collapsed. It took thousands of years to gradually recover. Gained some energy.
A simple camp was quickly set up, spanning hundreds of miles. A jade pond spanning thousands of feet fell in front of the camp, filled with dark red animal blood.
After walking through this pool, the totem will be completely activated, which can increase the combat power of the totem monk in a short period of time.
In addition, there is another use. When the totem is activated, it will leave some traces if it is bathed in the beast's blood again.
After hunting the wild beast, washing the totem with the heart blood of the wild beast will be recorded and used as the criterion for judging merit.
Since it is a great festival for hunting beasts, naturally the more wild beasts you hunt, the more rewards you will get.
The totem will remember how many wild beasts you have killed, and there cannot be any fraud.
…………
…………
After resting for a day, the warriors from each tribe bathed in the beast's blood and headed into the wasteland.
There are invisible rules in the order of entering the blood pool. The Wan family goes first, followed by some large tribes with surnames.
As for the small tribal warriors like the Wangshan tribe, they fell at the end.
Lie and Chu Zheng mixed in the crowd and walked towards the blood pool.
“When you enter the wasteland, you have to act alone, so be careful.”
Lie spoke in a deep voice and gave an instruction.
After entering the wasteland, he could no longer follow Chu Zheng. Not only would it hinder his own hunting, it might also bring danger to Chu Zheng.
Some powerful wild beasts like to hunt targets full of vitality. If he follows Chu Zheng, he will attract some extremely powerful wild beasts. Just the aftermath of the fight may kill Chu Zheng. Crushed to death.
"Uncle Lie, you said that I am an adult and know what to do."
Chu Zheng replied casually and stepped into the blood pool.
Hearing this, Lie couldn't help but be in a daze for a moment.
Although in front of Wan Xu, he said that Zhengchu was an adult, he still habitually regarded Zhengchu as a child, ignoring that he was already a qualified adult warrior and even had combat prowess. Among the people from Wangshan tribe, they belong to the middle and upper class.
When he came to his senses, Chu Zheng's figure had disappeared into the blood pool, and disappeared with the flow of people.
…………
…………
The moment he stepped into the blood pool, Chu Zheng felt a heat on his back, and the totem seemed to start to swim.
The warm animal blood instantly soaked into the whole body, bringing a sense of warmth.
The restlessness in his chest became more and more intense, and he could not help but feel some murderous intent, which was somewhat difficult to control.
There is something else in the beast's blood, which should be mixed with a stimulating and refreshing elixir.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the strangeness in his heart, Chu Zheng left the blood pool and walked alone into the depths of the wasteland. He had many ways to save his life, but it was difficult to take care of others. It was most appropriate to act alone. .
Even if there were millions of monks gathered together and scattered throughout the wasteland, they would be like water dripping into the sea without making a single ripple.
In just a moment, no one could be seen within a few miles of Chu Zheng.
"唳——"
A high-pitched cry echoed in the void, and a huge black shadow swooped down, completely covering Chu Zheng.
