The two of them, with Orion leading, returned to Moonshadow Valley under the reverent gazes of the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion had left Lilith in charge of the temporary command at the walls, while the rest of the elders gathered in the chieftain's tent for an emergency council meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion downed a large bowl of black rye ale, feeling some of the exhaustion lift from his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time, the dark source crystals we've collected—20% will go to the horde's reserves, and the rest will be distributed according to battle merit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From that 20%, take 10% and distribute it to the support staff based on their duties. They've worked hard too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This task will be handled by Elder of Stewardship Delilah, with Elder of Combat Thundar overseeing it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah stood up, nodded, and glanced around at the other elders. Seeing no objections, she sat back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion could clearly see the joy on the faces of the elders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since no one raised any objections or comments, Orion didn't dwell on the topic. He exhaled slowly and pulled out a wooden box from his cloak, containing the Alpha-level dark source crystal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the rules, this dark source crystal belongs to Prophet Onyx.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the moment Orion took out the box to the moment he spoke, the entire tent fell into an eerie silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Elder Rendall, who had his eyes closed in rest, every elder's gaze was fixed on the wooden box on Orion's table—especially Prophet Onyx.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's cold eyes swept over the council members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a casual flick of his wrist, the wooden box landed in Prophet Onyx's hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Prophet Onyx held the box as if it were his most precious treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, the seasoned and wise Prophet Onyx finally calmed his emotions, pulling himself out of the waves of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He carefully put the box away, then stood up, his expression solemn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I swear upon the soul of our ancestors, Onyx will defend the chieftain to the death, defend Moonshadow Valley to the death, and defend our Stoneheart Horde to the death!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these words, Prophet Onyx not only dispelled any envy or resentment from the other council members but also solidified his loyalty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His declaration not only earned Orion's favor but also the respect of the entire Stoneheart Horde.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Prophet, I've seen your loyalty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's a cave in the back of Moonshadow Valley, a place of peace and quiet. I'll have Elder Rendall take you there to train.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When you successfully ascend to Alpha-level, I have an important task for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prophet Onyx nodded in agreement and returned to his seat. He didn't ask what the task was—he was confident that once he reached Alpha-level, whatever Orion had in store for him would be easily accomplished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Prophet Onyx sat down, Orion scanned the other council members. He could sense the restlessness in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion thought for a moment, then decided to continue stoking their ambitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the summer, I set the rule that Alpha-level resources would be distributed according to sequence.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The next to receive resources will be my wife, Lilith, but after her, the next in line has yet to be determined.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, the dark beast tides are far from over. Lilith has a chance, and so do all of you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion paused, taking the opportunity to drink another cup of black rye ale, waiting for the fire of desire to ignite in the eyes of the elders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he saw their breathing grow a little heavier, Orion continued, his tone calm but deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not this year, then next year!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If not next year, then the year after!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even if I fall in battle, Elder Rendall and Prophet Onyx will still be here to support our Stoneheart Horde.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, this is the best of times. This is the era of our horde's rise!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't you want to seize this opportunity, to rise with me, and conquer the lands beyond the Black Forest?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion spoke these words while gazing into the darkness outside the tent, his expression distant and profound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We do!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For the horde!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For the glory of the horde!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The council members' voices rose in unison, their fervor and reverence for Orion palpable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stoneheart Horde was becoming more united than ever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Rendall opened his eyes, glancing at Orion seated at the head of the table, a smile slowly spreading across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prophet Onyx also looked at Orion, his eyes filled with visions of the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thundar placed a hand over his heart, feeling it race. He could almost see the day he would become an Alpha-level warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earthshaker downed a mouthful of beast-blood ale, letting out a satisfied belch before continuing to gnaw on a chunk of beast meat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delilah stared at Orion with burning eyes, her panties already soaked through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Orion's vision is so deep!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If only I had become his wife back then!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... this isn't bad either!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm also his woman!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After painting a grand vision of the future, Orion had successfully dispelled any jealousy or resentment in the hearts of the elders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, keep working hard. Reach the peak of Hero-level as soon as possible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I look forward to leading a group of Alpha-level warriors from our tribe to conquer the outside world!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Land, women, wealth... they're all waiting for us to claim them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion knew when to stop. He fell silent, waiting for the atmosphere in the tent to settle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a long pause, Orion finally began recounting his experience in the eastern mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the eastern mountains, at the bottom of the canyon, there's a massive underground crevice. Below that crevice is a bottomless abyss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That terrifying spiked worm was over 60 feet long, covered in spikes...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the time, I...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion spoke in great detail, describing the terrain of the underground crevice and the appearance of the monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he finished, he looked around at the council members. All of them were frowning in thought, but no one spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion's gaze fell on Elder Rendall, one of the oldest members of the giant tribe in Moonshadow Valley.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, even Elder Rendall was frowning, his expression one of disbelief. It seemed he had no knowledge of the spiked worm's existence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the past, we only cleared away the fallen trees that collapsed into the crevice to prevent dark creatures from climbing up. We never explored down there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A long time ago, your parents did venture down to investigate, but they found no important information was recorded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And for hundreds of years, no powerful creatures have ever emerged from the crevice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying this, Elder Rendall shook his head. He had scoured his memory but couldn't recall anything relevant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Orion felt a bit disappointed and turned his gaze to the well-traveled and knowledgeable Prophet Onyx.\u003C\u002Fp>",1166,"2026-05-29T15:49:11.111Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.741Z",1,"novelbin.me","619ac0f2278c8cc6b215f59ae861f0ab0689ece702761b4cf1cbc323bc693f4d","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-118","titan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-chapter-116",1606,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftitan-king-ascension-of-the-giant-cover.jpg"]
