As everyone knew, the Barbarian Tribe was not skilled in arts such as pill refining, artifact forging, and talisman crafting. This was not merely because they placed greater emphasis on physical strength; many subjective and objective factors were also involved.
The Barbarian Tribe's poverty meant that most of its tribes, which struggled even to sustain themselves, had no resources to spare for studying such arts. Moreover, their straightforward, reckless, and fiercely competitive nature made them ill-suited to delicate craftsmanship.
More importantly, witch power was a special force distributed throughout the flesh, wild and ferocious by nature. Thus, the Witch Clan excelled at combat rather than craftsmanship-the very nature of their power dictated it.
Pill refining was somewhat better. After all, pills were made from spiritual plants and medicinal herbs, and they aided physical cultivation. However ill-suited the Witch Clan might be to pill refining, at worst their results were poorer. They could still enhance some of the herbs' medicinal potency, which was better than swallowing them raw and still benefited their cultivation. Their pills simply offered less efficient improvement than those of other races.
Artifact forging and talisman crafting, however, were utterly disregarded. Objects and treasures forged with witch power were crude and rudimentary, and most could only be used by the Witch Clan. In other words, they could not forge them well, and even if they did, they struggled to sell them-a complete waste of materials. These arts did little to aid cultivation and could foster dependence on external objects, hindering cultivation instead. Since they ran counter to the Witch Clan's innate emphasis on their own flesh, they were naturally frowned upon and even rejected.
