Centuries of Sacrifice: I Became the Tribal Ancestor

Transmigrated to the Great Wilderness, Shen Can, due to his frail body, became the guardian of the Blazing Flame Tribe's ancestral temple, responsible for daily sweeping, incense offerings, and routine sacrifices.

In the Great Wilderness, floods, earthquakes, and disaster beasts ran rampant.

Human sacrifices to heaven and earth were useless.

Offerings to disaster beasts were also useless.

Human ancestors hunted desolate beasts, used their blood to refine themselves, and created the first generation of martial arts cultivation methods, seeking survival and sustenance in the Great Wilderness.

Although this method had many flaws, with qi and blood raging during cultivation, burning meridians and destroying the body, and a lack of clear path forward, it allowed humanity to carve out a sliver of survival in the Great Wilderness.

Therefore, various tribes in the Great Wilderness built ancestral temples to sacrifice to their ancestors annually, remembering the hardships of their ancestors' pioneering efforts. Even the prey brought back from hunts would be offered to the ancestral temple, respectfully inviting the ancestors to partake.

Shen Can, following his duty as a temple guardian, used a 'luan knife' to pierce the neck of a desolate beast, offering its blood to the ancestors. However, he discovered that he could absorb the desolate beast's lifespan and deduce cultivation methods.

From then on, who said martial arts could only stop before the seventh stage, forever living beneath disaster beasts?

Many years later, outside the Blazing Flame Tribe, the disaster beast Wuzhiqi swept in with torrential floods, turning the land into a vast ocean. The tribal people knelt outside the ancestral temple.

"Please, Ancestor, grant us protection!"
