475: determination

Stuffing the Heavenly Snake into his mouth, and with a 60% increase in progress, Chen Heng clapped his somewhat dirty hands.

"Alright, clean up."

Chen Heng dug out a large rock from the ground and sat on it.

He didn't need to get involved in the next matters. The Tian Man Tribe, having lost their protecting ancestral shaman, were now a flock of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

"Don't kill indiscriminately. Kill the die-hards, and bring the rest back."

Chen Heng still needed them to activate the golden Dragon on the human emperor seal, and he couldn't let it turn as dark as the Human Race's.

That was the human emperor seal, not the Human Demon Seal.

What was with it being all black?

No matter what wicked deeds Chen Heng had done in the past, or what heinous acts he had committed.

When he stood up to confront the root cause, he was a hero. How could a hero hold a blackened human emperor seal?

It didn't fit his image.

Opening his System panel, Chen Heng looked at his various attributes and available Optimization projects and began to ponder.

The unlocking of Zhu Jiuyin , Ancestral Witch of Time was not far off, and he was prepared to face the root cause.

To be precise, he was prepared to face the root cause from the past, present, and future time periods, all by himself.

There was only one thing he needed to do now.

That was to make himself as strong as possible and crush the root cause before its complete revival!

Only then could... Chen Heng shook his head. He, too, had moments of confusion.

He didn't know if doing this would change the future, or rather, if returning to the past would change the present situation.

But such things could only be known by doing them. One should not rashly speak of failure without even trying.

Thinking of this, Chen Heng's will completely firmed up, and there was no longer any confusion in his heart.

The thing he needed to do was simple: kill the root cause and come back to enjoy his life as a young master.

Yes, he definitely had to enjoy the life of a young master.

Time flew by; a week passed in a flash.

During these seven days, Chen Heng did not rush to activate the remaining two ancestor shaman totems. Instead, he helped the Rushou Tribe conquer various large and small tribes in the surrounding area.

At the same time, news came from Bai Jun that he had unified all the tribes around the Zhurong Tribe.

"It's time." Looking at the Primal Species that could now live in harmony before him, Chen Heng took out the human emperor seal.

As expected, the fourth golden Dragon lit up, not black, but an incomparably dazzling gold.

"Heh, I knew the Human Race's situation was an accident."

Chen Heng chuckled and put away the human emperor seal.

The moment the fourth one lit up, Chen Heng obtained all the genetic information of the Primal Species and the method to use their innate Divine Ability.

That is, the method to use that 'Incredible Power'.

"How about... I give it a try?"

Chen Heng was very curious about what the cost would be after using this wish-granting ability, or whether he, an 'outsider', could even use this ability.

Even the creator of the human emperor seal couldn't use it, so his chances of using it were not high.

Chen Heng had originally thought of Optimizing the human emperor seal in his hand, but even though he had accumulated nearly ten thousand Optimization attempts, the optimization button above the human emperor seal remained dim.

"Isn't this damn thing just a gene integrate?"

Chen Heng muttered as he tinkered with all sorts of strange things in his dragon skin pouch.

After a careful sorting, excluding those odd Medicinal Pills, Materials, and strange medicinal herbs, there were only a few truly useful items.

The golden crow iron square, the heart of the gods, the human emperor seal, and the gene integrate.

Except for the golden crow iron square, Chen Heng could think of uses for the other items.

But this golden crow iron square... Chen Heng looked at the small square in his hand, unable to understand what use the small sun inside such a tiny thing had.

Illumination?

No!

Chen Heng paused, was there a small sun inside this? Was it really the golden crow iron square?

How should he describe the feeling this thing gave Chen Heng? It was like a miniature nuclear fusion battery.

And a super-concentrated version of a nuclear fusion battery.

"How about... I taste it?"

But Chen Heng thought about it and gave up the idea of tasting the golden crow iron square, putting these items back.

In dealing with the root cause, Chen Heng intended to use every means necessary, utilizing all resources to their limit.

For example, he had now accumulated a large number of Optimization attempts.

Since obtaining the optimization system, this was the first time Chen Heng had so many Optimization attempts.

Before, having one or two hundred times would have made him ecstatic, but now with nearly ten thousand Optimization attempts, he was as calm as an ancient well.

"This damn thing consumes more and more, like a game from Tencent."

"Like a bottomless pit..."

Looking at his personal panel, Chen Heng realized that he seemed to have entered another Bottleneck.

Since breaking through to the Martial Extreme Realm before, the growth of his Qi and blood and the growth of his Cultivation Technique had not encountered any obstacles.

Name: Chen Heng

Qi and blood: 9999999

Cultivation: 19999 (Martial Extreme Realm Peak)

External Cultivation Technique: Heaven and Earth Martial Scripture (Rank E), Dragon Tiger Strength (up to one thousand times), ... Bloodline: Great Asura King, Chief of the Six Paths (100%), Hanba, Kui Niu, Taotie, Qiongqi...

Secret Art: Self-Transformation Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Body (Heaven of Joyful Transformation)

"It should be enough."

Chen Heng pondered, he planned to max out the Bloodline, Cultivation Technique, and Self-Transformation Great Freedom Heavenly Demon Body that were not yet maxed.

This was already the limit he could reach. As for the Qi and blood and Cultivation that could no longer increase, that was another matter.

Anyway, he no longer relied on Qi and blood to strengthen his body; his body itself was already strong enough.

Qi and blood, Cultivation, and Realm at most played an auxiliary role, and their contribution to combat power was already very limited.

"How about... I go into seclusion?"

Chen Heng considered the pros and cons of going into seclusion and finally decided to do so.

After coming out of seclusion, Chen Heng could go to the Black Mist Tribe to hunt the Black Witch God and activate the last two Power of the Ancestral Witch.

As for the location of his seclusion... Chen Heng had actually thought of returning to the Yang Aspect to seclude himself; the environment there was much more comfortable than the Yin Side of the World.

But then he thought, wasn't there a ready-made seclusion spot on the Yin Side?

Anyway, there were only sixteen loaches left in the Dragon Tomb, or seventeen if Snake Green was counted.

So many big loaches occupying such a large place, it would be better to lend it to him for seclusion.

"It's decided then."

Chen Heng clapped his hand, happily deciding on the plan for the next period of time.

He called Luo Shuo and the others over, instructing them on matters they needed to pay attention to.

After casually molding a totem of Feng Zhuzu Wu Tianwu, Chen Heng left the Rushou Tribe and headed for the Dragon Tomb.
