174: Chapter 174 [Suppressing Spirit Azure Sky Tower] [Beast Clan Alliance] Dinosaur Civilization
He then continued to explain to the Incarnation with great interest.
"The Bronze Sacrifice System of our Bronze Human Race is divided into three tiers based on the level of the artifacts. Those who wield Underworld Artifacts are known as [Underworld Principle Masters], those who grasp Sacrificial Artifacts are called [Law-Defining Priests], and those who bear Ritual Artifacts can serve as [Civilization Ritual Masters]."
"At each level, depending on one's understanding of laws and a vast amount of sacrificial offerings, the artifacts at each stage will possess different functions."
After saying this, Savage even took out his own small bronze pagoda to show the Incarnation.
This small bronze pagoda was octagonal, designed in the style of a multi-eaved pavilion. It tapered layer by layer from bottom to top, its outline steady and imposing, like a sword pointing toward the firmament. The body of the pagoda was covered with various law patterns. If one listened carefully, the sounds of thousands of chanting and sacrificial rites could be heard, as if infinite power were gathering within.
"Praise to the Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Law-Defining Priest, possessing great power, great wisdom, and great magical ability, saving the suffering, and subduing all demons and monsters."
"Praise to the Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Law-Defining Priest, possessing the Azure Heaven, the Demon-Slaying Warship, and the Azure Heaven Pagoda, defining laws and principles, and subduing all dark demons and evil gods."
"This sacrificial artifact is named the [Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Pagoda]. It has the function of suppression and containment, bears destiny, and fears no harm from dark or evil methods. In times of crisis, it can even invoke the power of a Civilization Ritual Artifact to descend, meaning it fears no opponent below the high-tier."
The Incarnation observed carefully. This type of artifact was different from the magical artifact system he had created himself. It relied solely on the sacrifices of the thoughts of all people, condensing laws layer upon layer, continuously accumulating and stacking power upwards.
Looking at this system, the Incarnation thought to himself.
"It is a bit too reliant on the sacrifices of living beings. Although it incorporates one's own understanding of laws and principles, it is ultimately not pure enough. However, since the Bronze Human Race has given birth to high-tier Ritual Artifacts, they must have found a way to resolve this dependency. After all, if advancing from mid-tier to high-tier can still utilize the thoughts and sacrifices of the masses, then how much would be needed to advance to the transcendent-tier?"
Savage showed off his [Spirit-Suppressing Azure Heaven Pagoda] and then stored it back into his body. A cyan communicator hanging on his body suddenly rang, and it was then that he remembered something and said.
"By the way, my Bronze Academy specifically invites the Zhenren to come and give a lecture on the Cultivator system in a while."
"I estimate that the Golden and Silver races will also send some of their clansmen to learn, and the conditions should be similar to ours."
"Three Human Races share the same origin and form, often supporting and helping each other, so the Zhenren can accept them all."
"However, you should be careful about the two Transcendent Lives you saw earlier who were seeking investment and preaching rights from you."
"They are the Green Lizard Civilization and the Blue Octopus Civilization under the Beast Alliance. They have just advanced to mid-tier civilizations and often use underhanded means to spread their transcendent paths to some weak civilizations."
"I didn't expect them to actually target our human civilization this time. They are truly courting death!"
After saying this, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended around Savage. Even the Incarnation was startled and quickly shielded Ling Li and Ling Hua, who were standing by the side.
Seeing this situation, Savage said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Please forgive me, Zhenren. Some vassal races on the periphery of the territory of Three Human Races have also been affected by their preaching. Many low-tier civilizations do not understand them well enough and have lost a large batch of promising seedlings who had the potential to become Transcendent Lives."
"Lord Savage, Three Human Races are all high-tier civilizations. Why fear these few weak civilizations? Have you not retaliated?"
"Retaliation naturally exists, but it has always been our transcendent paths spreading to the civilizations on their side."
"This time, I don't know if it's a case of newborn calves not fearing tigers, or if there is another civilization behind them directing this, but they actually dared to extend their hands into our territory and even sent people over to observe."
Hearing this, the corners of the Incarnation's mouth almost couldn't hold back.
"So it turns out Three Human Races are the ones invading and bullying them, and this time, being struck first by the opponent, they are the ones who are a bit broken."
Savage looked at the Incarnation's expression, which looked like he wanted to laugh. He naturally knew what he was thinking, but he ignored it and said seriously.
"These few mid-tier civilizations are of no consequence. What we need to be careful of is the high-tier civilization alliance behind them, the [Beast Alliance]."
"The Earth Lizard Crocodile and the Bow Shark, these two clans have always fought alone, and only have one high-tier life each."
"The real threat and power here is the Dinosaur Civilization within the [Beast Alliance]. It is divided into four major royal clans: Tyrannosaurus, Spinosaurus, Mosasaurus, and Quetzalcoatlus. Each clan has 2-3 high-tier lives and is the true hegemon of the [Beast Alliance]."
"Our relationship with Three Human Races is also the worst. As carbon-based life forms born on the same home planet, the actual resistance to the mutual spread of our transcendent paths is smaller, and it is easier to achieve results."
"If not for the prior rise of the Golden Human Race, I fear that the later human races would have fallen into becoming vassals of the Beast Alliance."
"There were also representatives of the Beast Alliance in this trial group, so they must already know about the Zhenren's transcendent system and talent. Within the Solar System, there is the forbidden divine power of the Starfall Great Sage; without permission, even high-tier Transcendent Lives cannot enter."
"I know the Zhenren has the Incarnation talent, using it to walk in the outside world to collect various knowledge to complete the transcendent system, so you don't need to worry about safety."
At this time, the Incarnation suddenly interjected.
"Lord Savage, do you know where that Star Beast came from? There shouldn't be a transcendent-level trial in the professional trials, right?"
This question caused Savage, who had finished speaking and was slowly savoring his spirit tea, to choke slightly.
"Cough, cough, cough."
"This counts as a special incident. Of course, the professional trials on the primitive planet do not have transcendent-level ones. Otherwise, like now, losing so many people, joining the Galactic Extraordinary Council would inevitably lead to some complaints."
"Therefore, after discovering the transcendent-level Star Beast, I immediately reported it to His Excellency the Eternal Golden Dragon King, Sharol. The results of this investigation will be announced to you later, and at the same time, additional help and comfort will be provided based on your losses."
While saying this, Savage felt a bit guilty.
After all, he was the one hosting this trial, and he didn't discover that Star Beast. Although it was because of the Star Beast's unique talent that it wasn't detected, strictly speaking, he also bore some responsibility.
Therefore, given that this Tianhe Zhenren had extraordinary potential and had already become a mid-tier existence of his kind, he would also provide him with some additional compensation for this mistake.
Hearing this, the Incarnation was silent for a while. Since the Transcendent Council had a detailed method for handling it, there was naturally no need for him, who had just ascended to the mid-tier, to say anything.
Although a mid-tier existence looked like the backbone or even the strongest of a civilization, in the [Galactic Extraordinary Council], they could only be considered an attendant.
Only high-tier existences were members who participated in policy formulation, while transcendent-tier existences were the highest leaders of various institutions.
Speaking of the Star Beast, Savage suddenly remembered.
"Oh, right, the body of that Star Beast is a good thing. I wonder if the Zhenren is willing to sell it? I am willing to use a second-tier mid-grade transcendent artifact in exchange."
