Chapter 513 (2/2)

These were the people who first came with him. They could not escape the range of the fire seed now. After hearing him, the warriors who had been scattered during the fight started heading closer together. Running would not help now.

This was their first time facing such a powerful fire seed, they had no experience, hence it was chaotic. Shao Xuan’s words were like a ray of light. Without thinking if it would work, their first response was to obey his instructions.

After grouping together, the Flaming Horns felt a weight lifted. Their totemic patterns had been slowly fading, now they were bright once again. The power of the fire seed within them seemed to break through its icy cage and was awakened again.

It worked!

It was true. When they merged with the fire seed, the shaman mentioned that the fire seed will exist as long as the tribesmen did. They thought it was more like a religious faith in the fire seed. Now, they truly understood what it meant.

The fire seed was in them, burning! It had never died! One person’s strength was limited, the fire seed was tiny. However, when more people grouped together, it was like sparks merging into a fireball. Fireballs merged together could become a roaring fire.

Shao Xuan’s instructions were passed to everyone. Duo Kang, Gui He and Ta called everyone over so the scattered warriors returned. Ao and Zheng Luo at the back also helped regroup the warriors.

If the warriors were initially like scattered beads, they slowly regrouped to form a chain once again. Although they couldn’t get an exact line or group into a circle, it now resembled a battle front. Under the immense pressure of the fire seed’s power, this front line was like a red hot slaughter knife, slicing through the pressure.

The effects of the Wanshi fire seed grew smaller and smaller. Although the flames had piled on them at a terrifying rate, at this moment, Flaming Horn had lost its fear. On the contrary, the power of the fire seed within slowly activated, their determination to fight grew as the seconds passed.

The Wanshi shaman was right. It was still extremely difficult to completely annihilate another tribe even in a war of this scale. They must hold on, and it will be a battle between fire seeds now.

Tribes didn’t usually use their fire seeds for battle. The absence of the Flaming Horn’s fire seed used to be the reason for Wanshi’s confidence, but their opponent’s behaviour baffled them.

Why?

Why did they sense the presence of Flaming Horn’s fire seed now?!

Wasn’t it supposed to be gone? They didn’t sense anything before this?!

Were the Flaming Horns insane, bringing their fire seed along while invading another tribe?

Where was it? Where the hell was their fire seed then?!

The shaman studied the fire seed energetic patterns across the lands only to realise the Flaming Horn’s fire seed seemed to be everywhere at once. While each point was faint, they all strung together into a powerful line that could crack a mountain.

Two sources of power were colliding!

It didn’t matter if they were Flaming Horns, Wanshi tribesmen or slave masters, everyone could sense the changes.

The slave masters who planned to enter the war and help Wanshi suddenly realised the tables had turned. They hesitated and slowed down their actions, waiting for the next move. They watched from afar. If Wanshi could continue to take the upperhand, then they would help.

Next to the fire pit, the Wanshi shaman’s eyes were filled with disbelief. “Why… why is this happening?!”

What have you all done?!

Shao Xuan picked up an injured Flaming Horn warrior collapsed on the ground, then put him on his shoulder. While the injury was not serious, he was too weak against the Wanshi fire seed’s pressure. He had been too far from everyone else so when they retreated, this warrior wasn’t with them.

The Wanshi shaman snapped back into reality when he saw Shao Xuan running back and forth while everyone was already huddled together. He glared at Shao Xuan fiercely, grey totemic patterns on his twisted features made him look savage.

“I don’t care what you do, you will all die here today! You will be bones under Wanshi’s mountain of fire!”

A column of fire erupted from the fire pit, condensed into a ball and then fell directly where Shao Xuan was.

Shao Xuan sensed a large wad of energy above his head, as if the sky was falling. Without much thought, he tossed the people on his shoulder towards the group of Flaming Horns with all his might.

On the next moment, a large force fell, blanketing the earth and the skies like an avalanche. He felt his muscles and bones squeezed downwards, as if he was now bearing the weight of a mountain.
