NOVPUBTime quietly flew by; a full half-year had elapsed since Lin Qian entered the Small World.
During this period, the strength of the Human Clan from the Origin State had rapidly increased, changing day by day.
It was due to the fragmentation of past cultivation civilization, which left them with an extremely poor foundation, always groping in the dark with no reflection or reference.
Lin Qian even discovered that in their cultivation journey, they had taken many detours and wrong paths.
All these reasons resulted in the Small World Human Clan’s strength being very weak at their natural Realm levels.
Therefore, their extremely low foundation and strength made their progress particularly notable.
As time went on, the more they learned and understood, the more the Human Clan members felt sentimental, realizing their own racial bloodline was indeed not weak. If the cultivation civilization hadn’t been interrupted, the history of the past would not be as it is now.
Lin Qian could even clearly feel the rising confidence of the Small World Human Clan, especially when he mentioned that the Giant Ghost Clan and the Dwarf Ghost Clan were just laborers enslaved by the Human Clan; their confidence grew even stronger.
In half a year, those of the Human Clan on the battleship had entirely transformed.
Speaking just of the Sky Breaking Realm, it was no longer just Zhao Wei, Qian Ling, Sun Ang, and Li Yi, the four great tribe Clan Leaders.
Among them, some Clan Leaders who had reached the peak of the Nirvana Realm and had been unable to break through, with Lin Qian’s help, had managed to shatter their shackles and successfully advanced.
Now, within the Human Clan, there were as many as fifteen Soul Martial Artists in the Sky Breaking Realm.
Simultaneously, the number of Soul Martial Artists in the Nirvana Realm had also significantly increased, reaching more than four hundred.
As for the remaining Soul Martial Artists in the Shape Origin Realm, there were even more, at least seventy to eighty thousand.
Perhaps the strength of the Human Clan still had a gap compared to the Dwarf Ghost Clan and the Giant Ghost Clan, but compared to the past, it had significantly decreased.
Moreover, when it really came to fighting, the Human Clan might not necessarily lose. Under Lin Qian’s influence, the potential within everyone had been fully ignited.
On the entire battleship, every Soul Martial Artist of the Human Clan was rubbing their hands and looking resolutely northward with a fiery look in their eyes. The once unthinkable dream of the Human Clan counterattacking the north was no longer out of reach, but within grasp.
They could hardly wait.
In the massive hovering object above, the central battleship was filled with the elite Soul Martial Artists of the Human Clan. At this moment, they were all gathered on the first floor of the ship’s cabin.
There were no calls for troops to fill this cabin, making it exceptionally spacious, and glowing crystals illuminated every face.
Seeing the burning gaze in these Human Clan members’ eyes, Lin Qian stood on the platform and looked at them, "Half a year’s time, how much you’ve grown, I see it very clearly. The easy days of strengthening your power have ended, it is time to begin taking action."
At this point, a fierce fighting intent appeared in the eyes of the people in the cabin. And amid that gaze, there was also a trace of trepidation, nervousness.
The increase in strength they could clearly feel, of course, but what the situation would be when they truly clashed, everyone still had no real certainty in their hearts.
Only by truly clashing would the results be tested.
The Dwarf Ghost Clan and the Giant Ghost Clan were still searching for our traces. To improve efficiency, they split into small groups.
Both the Dwarf Ghost Clan and the Giant Ghost Clan were led by those in the Nirvana Realm, with those in the Shape Origin Realm following.
The Giant Ghost Clan was led by one Nirvana Realm, followed by a hundred Shape Origin Realm tribespeople.
The Dwarf Ghost Clan would have two Nirvana Realm leaders and typically two hundred Shape Origin Realm tribespeople closely following.
The two foreign clans have occupied the northern growing races for so long; it’s normal for them to have surpassed the Human Clan in population. If not for their lower fertility rate than the Human Clan, their numbers would probably be even more exaggerated.
"But their people are now truly scattered," Lin Qian looked at the members of the Human Clan in front of him and said, "You know what to do, don’t you?"
"We do!" After Lin Qian’s speech ended, many of the Human Clan members responded in unison.
"Fight, use the foreign clan’s blood to wash away your disgrace, and rebuild the dignity of the Human Clan upon their bones." Lin Qian spread his arms wide, a burning imperial robe enveloping his body, nine dragons circling around him, and the pressure of an emperor burst from within, stimulating the will of these Human Clan members.
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
All the Human Clan members in the cabin waved their right arms and shouted loudly, and that pure white light gradually enveloped them.
The central battleship, while Lin Qian was rallying in the cabin, had already flown north, leaving the range of the barren forest.
"Where the hell did these damn Human Clan run off to?" A hundred paces outside the barren woods, in a team of exceptionally tall individuals from the Shape Origin Realm of the Giant Ghost Clan, they discussed amongst themselves.
Another Giant Ghost Clan member shook his head and slapped the withered bag at his waist, "By this time of year, the bag is usually too small to fit all the Human Clan we capture, and we have to start eating what we catch on the go. Now, I can’t even see a ghost’s shadow."
"Half a year, occasionally a Human Clan figure would appear, but they vanish in the blink of an eye; it’s truly baffling."
"Right, have you guys heard about something, that up north some tribespeople were sacrificed to that Mr. Lu?" Right after that, the topic of discussion shifted from the Human Clan.
A Giant Ghost Clan member nodded, "How could I not know, my wife was one of those sacrificed. Alas, powerless to resist, the Clan Leader said it was for our future."
"Luo Erheng, you’re well informed, do you know what’s going on?"
"Well, I did hear a theory that shortly after that great man receives a sacrifice, he will be able to control the walking dead autonomously, thereby locating the Human Clan. Now, when the fog clears, it doesn’t disturb the walking dead, seemingly related to this."
The surrounding Giant Ghost Clan members heard this and had a sudden realization, "No wonder they mentioned that over a month ago, they could move even when the fog dispersed without worrying about the walking dead."
Above this Giant Ghost Clan’s team, filled with their voices, they proceeded in the direction of the east.
At the very front of the team, a tall bald Giant Ghost Clan, annoyed, yelled up into the sky, "Human insects, if you’ve got the guts, come out to me, aaaah!!!"
The resounding roar echoed long in the sky, causing the withered branches of the surrounding trees to tremble slightly.
"Interesting, just got back to the ground, and there’s a welcome party for us, not a bad voice." Just as the Giant Ghost Clan finished shouting, a mocking voice suddenly came from behind.
Nearly all of the Giant Ghost Clan turned around at the same time, astonished to find a dense crowd of the Human Clan standing behind them, roughly eighty thousand in number.
"The Human Clan has appeared!"
