Chapter 560 - 559: We Can Also Swagger Around

Wei Ce pressed his lips together, his gaze fixed on Si Shuo.

Si Shuo chuckled lightly. "You know, I was thinking... the Iron-eating Beast Clan managed to become a major power dominating a region on the Central Continent, so why can’t they make a name for themselves here on the Yongchang Continent? They have the blood of an Ancient Divine Beast flowing through their veins, after all!

"Instead of looking for some powerful family or tribe to back us, why don’t we just cultivate a family of our own!"

She took out half of the Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pills, Upgrade Pills, Superpower Awakening Pills, Life Reviving Pills, Revitalizing Pills, and Beauty Enhancement Pills she had replicated. The quantity was truly impressive.

"Even if the rainy and coldest seasons on the Yongchang Continent aren’t as extreme as back home, the Beastmen will definitely be less active. They’ll spend most of their time holed up for the winter.

"We can use this time for everyone to make a final push together. No matter what, we should be able to raise our overall strength by a level or two, right?"

The Iron-eating Beast Clan members possessed exceptional innate talent and formidable Combat Power, making it easy for them to fight opponents of a higher level. They already had quite a few Beastmen at Level 12-13, and after training in the Southwest Deep Forest Secret Realm, they had already advanced by a level or two.

Now, with the dense Spiritual Energy in the Bamboo Forest Maze and the help of these elixirs, their strength was bound to soar even higher.

’The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed!’

Zhi Le nodded as well. "That’s right. The Iron-eating Beast Clan can’t hide in this Array forever. Sooner or later, they’ll run into other people, and it’s inevitable they’ll be targeted. Cultivating hard now is just preparing for a rainy day."

Wei Ce looked at his family with gratitude. The entire Iron-eating Beast Clan had migrated, and even with the Bamboo Forest Maze pointed out by the Beast God, everyone was still filled with unease, treading on thin ice, terrified that this place would one day be discovered.

Their current cultivation level was nowhere near enough to survive on the Yongchang Continent. He didn’t know if they would be able to protect their loved ones when that time came.

"I’ll talk to my Father. I’ll have every clan member who takes an elixir swear an oath to be our staunchest supporters. With this oath as a bond, the fates of the Iron-eating Beast Clan and ours will be intertwined!" Wei Ce declared his position.

Gong You smiled. "I’ll go set up the Time Law tonight. We snatched away one of the City Lord’s Wife’s males today, so she’s definitely going to find a way to make trouble for us.

"We’re racing against time right now."

"We’ll go too and consolidate our cultivation," Yin Jiang added.

So that night, relying on the Array set up with the Array Flags, the group followed Ji Liang back into the Bamboo Forest Maze.

Wei Ce sought out Wei Jin, explained the situation, and handed him a Storage Ring filled with a large number of elixirs.

Wei Jin’s hands trembled slightly with excitement as he accepted it. This ring held the future of the entire clan—their hope of taking root on the Yongchang Continent and achieving prosperity!

"Ce, back then, everyone said your little female was just trying to cling to our Iron-eating Beast Clan. But who would have thought that the lives and future of our entire clan would be given by her." Wei Jin couldn’t help but sigh with emotion. "She must be the hope granted to our Iron-eating Beast Clan by the Beast God. Even if you weren’t bound by the Beast Mark, you should still serve her as your master and treat her with all your heart..."

Wei Ce nodded repeatedly with a smile, feeling both proud and incredibly soft-hearted. "Of course. Shuo is my life. We were destined for each other, fated to be partners for life.

"Father, prioritize these resources for the clan members with the best talent or the highest cultivation. We need to see drastic results in one night... which is to say, within seven or eight days..."

Wei Jin naturally understood. After a brief exchange, the father and son parted ways, and he hurried off to find an elder to help screen a list of candidates and distribute the elixirs one by one.

It wasn’t that Si Shuo hadn’t given them elixirs before, but she had only given them a few, which were treated as extremely high-level rewards for the clan.

This time, the number of elixirs was substantial. There were over a hundred Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pills alone, and each one could raise a Warrior’s cultivation by more than a full level!

Everyone who received an elixir began cultivating, racing against time. They knew how game-changing the Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pills were. They boldly started by absorbing Spiritual Energy from Crystal Stones, allowing the impurities to accumulate in their bodies. The massive influx of Spiritual Energy pushed their cultivation higher. Only when the impurities began to hinder their cultivation and slow their progress did they take a Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pill to purge the impurities and temper their muscles and bones...

This extreme method pushed the effects of the Bone Marrow Cleansing and Vein Cutting Pill to their absolute limit!

After obtaining his new superpower, Xiao Cheng discovered that his ability and Kunzi’s were a perfect match. He could strip or replace superpowers, while Kunzi could replicate and store up to three.

In other words, after Kunzi replicated Ji Liang’s Teleportation Ability, Xiao Cheng could strip it from him and then replace the Stepping Point Superpower of the Iron-eating Beast Clan members, effectively upgrading their ability!

This way, as long as an Array was set up with Array Flags in the guest cave within the city, the members of the Iron-eating Beast Clan could teleport back and forth at will without alerting any other Beastmen.

As for the replaced Stepping Point Superpowers, Xiao Cheng tossed them into a Spirit Storage Talisman.

Kunzi and Xiao Cheng experimented nonstop. Kunzi replicated all of their family’s superpowers one by one, and Xiao Cheng continuously stripped them and tossed them into the Spirit Storage Talisman.

They found that some superpowers could be replicated, such as their own innate ones, but others related to bloodline inheritance or rare abilities could not be replicated or stripped.

These included the Invisibility and spatial abilities of the Horned Deer Beastman; the Time Law understood by Gong You and Da Hai; Xue Bao’s Break Spiritual Power; Jiao Tang’s Devour; Sweet Ring’s Curse; Kunzi’s own replication; Little Jing’s Blessing; and Ali’s Divine Judgment.

Furthermore, the strength of a superpower would weaken after passing through Xiao Cheng’s hands, retaining only fifty percent of its original power...

After one night, everyone’s cultivation results were remarkable. Aside from Wei Ce, two elders from the Iron-eating Beast Clan had already broken through to Level 15. The number of Level 14 members went from a pitiful few to over twenty. And the number of Level 13s swelled to become the largest group of superpower users, with a good eighty to a hundred of them!

As dawn broke, the group gathered together, excitedly looking at the Beast Patterns on each other’s necks and offering congratulations.

Who could have imagined that back on the Central Continent, Level 15 was the absolute ceiling for a superpower user’s cultivation—an unattainable height that everyone looked up to. And now, two such individuals had appeared in their clan!

Several others had already reached the Peak of Level 14 and were on the verge of breaking through.

Although this level of cultivation wasn’t considered high on the Yongchang Continent, it was enough to keep them from being easily bullied.

Wei Ce leaned in and whispered in Si Shuo’s ear with a smile, "Shuo, look. Does this mean we can take people on in a war of attrition now? Our clan’s Level 13 Warriors can completely overpower a Level 14 opponent.

"With our clan members as a safety net, we can finally swagger around Beiping City!"

Si Shuo chuckled along with him. "You’re right. And I discovered that replicating Crystal Stones can also be used to remove their impurities. You just hold two Crystal Stones—one as the replication template and the other as the raw material. By replicating the template and drawing Spiritual Energy from the raw material, it saves a ton of energy and doesn’t cause a big commotion... I’ll purify the Crystal Stones for everyone. If they cultivate with stones that have fewer impurities, their cultivation can rise even more..."
