Chapter 608: Exchange Conditions

Wu Yue raised an eyebrow: "This is the barrier shamanic technique you want to exchange."

She carefully took out a shamanic talisman and clamped it between her index and middle fingers, a thread of shamanic power flowing into the talisman between her fingers.

The next moment, the long‑haired beastman still immersed in shock and the two beastman warriors behind him felt an invisible ripple around them.

For the long‑haired beastmen who had long coveted barrier shamanic technique, this ripple could not be more familiar.

"Barrier shamanic technique!"

The three jumped up in shock, cautiously reaching out with both hands to feel around; only when they were almost at the cave entrance did their palms finally touch an invisible yet real barrier.

At this moment, the long‑haired beastman's heart pounded wildly; he stared intensely at the small‑tribe shaman seated at the head: "Is this shamanic talisman something only shamans can use?"

Wu Yue instantly saw the fervor and ambition in the beastman's eyes, rolled her eyes, and shattered his expectation: "Since it's a shamanic talisman, it naturally requires shamanic power to activate—you beastman warriors need not even think about it."

Although he felt disappointed, as long as he kept a shaman by his side—even a novice who had just cultivated a bit of shamanic power—he could use this barrier shamanic technique that could save his life in critical moments.

More importantly, by exchanging for this barrier shamanic technique and bringing it back to offer to his father, he would thereafter be able to have his father arrange for several powerful shamans to serve as his subordinates, should he wish.

With powerful shamans as guards, whether he married or not no longer mattered.

"I want to exchange this miraculous shamanic talisman with you; I can use any number of these gemstones infused with shamanic power—five gemstones for one talisman. What do you think?"

The long‑haired beastman glanced nervously at Wu Yue seated at the head.

On this outing, his father had given him some shamanic‑infused gemstones, but not many.

Seeing the long‑haired beastman's nervous expression, Wu Yue suddenly smiled, her eyes curving: "Although I don't have many shamanic talismans, since the powerful Sea Tribe Super Tribe needs them, I can still spare a few for you."

"I can agree to exchange three talismans for every five gemstones you offer, but you must promise me one condition and also swear an oath to the Beast God."

For some reason, hearing the oath again from this female shaman's mouth, the long‑haired beastman's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

He had the feeling he was overlooking something important, yet his limited mind simply couldn't figure it out.

But seeing the stack of shamanic talismans, his desire overrode reason once more, and he anxiously asked: "What condition? Tell me."

As long as the condition isn't excessively unreasonable, for the sake of the shamanic talisman he could agree to anything.

"I hope your tribe will allocate a plot of land capable of producing salt for us, and teach our tribe's people how to make salt.

"Of course, I can promise you that the salt we produce in the Sea Tribe's territory will be supplied only to our own people and allied tribes, not traded with other tribes."

The long‑haired beastman's harsh refusal, just about to leave his lips, oddly swallowed back upon hearing her latter sentence.

He frowned, pondered for a moment: "Wu Yue, a land capable of producing salt for only three shamanic talismans is far from enough.

"Even if I could allocate a small parcel of my own territory to you, producing salt still requires the consent of the great shaman and the chieftain."

First release, latest.
