Chapter 2102: 876, 50,000 miles, transaction
Bu Taishan is located fifty thousand miles away from the Blazing Prairie Tribe, far from handling peaks and ranges like those of Cloudfall Mountain, it stretched as a connection to the Wasteland and extended for a million miles of enormous mountain ranges.
There, numerous divine beasts and demon beasts reside, with even more groups of humans living under the protection of these divine beasts.
In the past, these human tribes worshipped Divine Beast Totems while struggling to survive in the harsh conditions of the million-mile Bu Taishan.
Unlike the Wasteland, where hunting and farming were feasible, Bu Taishan had scarce forest outputs and territorial awareness among various divine beasts, leaving many of its human residents impoverished and cold.
“Chieftain, the message from Zhaoling has arrived; indeed, the human tribes there are living in hardship,” said Han Muye, looking at Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong nodded and glanced around, “I must consult Senior Brother Han about this matter.”
Marching fifty thousand miles away is no trivial matter.
What’s more crucial is facing those divine beast tribes of Bu Taishan.
Zhu Rong approached the stone house where Han Muye stayed and spoke about the matter in a low voice.
“Senior Brother Han, unlike Cloudfall Mountain, if we send too few people to Bu Taishan, we might not be able to secure the spiritual minerals mines, and if we send too many, it might provoke the divine beasts…”
This was Zhu Rong’s dilemma.
He feared that their strength was insufficient.
Lately, the Blazing Prairie Tribe had slowly built a reputation among the Wilderness, with many large human tribes initiating exchanges and interactions with them.
Zhu Rong also learned some practices of these large tribes.
Once a tribal group grows strong, they disperse their own groups spontaneously.
This strategy prevents formidable divine beasts from feeling threatened.
It was also a way to ensure the survival of their whole human tribe.
The Blazing Prairie Tribe had also differentiated itself from other large tribes in this manner.
According to some large tribes, it was almost time for the Blazing Prairie Tribe to attract the attention of those powerful divine beast tribes.
The best solution was to differentiate.
If they displayed too much power in this expedition, it would surely provoke the divine beast tribes to act.
And that would mean no mere scattering of few lower-tier or mid-rank divine beasts.
A single divine beast tribe could easily consist of tens or hundreds of divine beasts, among them many high-tier divine beasts holding territories.
“Thus, we can reduce the number of people going to Bu Taishan and bring more materials instead,”
“Not in the form of a military expedition, but in the form of a trade mission,” calmly stated Han Muye, looking at Zhu Rong.
Not as a military force, but through trade.
Zhu Rong blinked in slight astonishment.
“Zhu Rong, the human race doesn’t only consist of the Blazing Prairie Tribe.”
“I know you see the Blazing Prairie Tribe flourishing without the need for a Divine Beast Totem and want every other human tribe to live freely and not be enslaved by any divine beast,” said Han Muye, his voice tinged with a hint of emotion.
Zhu Rong was very courageous.
When he first met him, he willingly stepped into the altar flames for his tribe.
Latter, he even sacrificed his own cultivation abilities to benefit his entire tribe.
But this sense of responsibility gradually continued and expanded, eventually leaving him powerless.
One Zhu Rong could not save the entire human race.
When the Ancient Desolate Ruins fell apart, the fate of the human race could only be changed by themselves.
“The method to change the fate of the human race doesn’t have to involve rescuing them with a large army or clearing their obstacles with military force,”
“Our battle armor, divine patterns, our battle formations, our legacy, all these are viable,”
“In fact, once they master this power, they will never willingly be slaves again,” the words of Han Muye seemed to carry a vibrating power that reached deep into one’s soul.
Zhu Rong did not quite understand Han Muye’s words.
But he knew that Han Muye could see farther than he could.
“Alright, I’ll arrange it immediately, we’re not going to fight, we are going to trade,”
Zhu Rong grinned at Han Muye and turned to leave.
Half a day later, the tribe began to mobilize.
Eight hundred Gray Wolf war mounts and four hundred Demon Bull war mounts assembled, followed by three thousand various types of demon beasts carrying large baskets.
These baskets were filled with the Blazing Prairie Tribe’s grains, various stitched garments, forged weapons, and some metals engraved with divine patterns.
Many battle armors were also packed.
A grand team of ten thousand people, gathering diverse materials, took five days.
By the time the large troop departed, it had been ten days.
This time, leading the team were both Zhu Rong and Han Muye.
Within the team, ten individuals possessed divine pattern weapons, capable of invoking Divine Pattern Power and leveraging the power of their weapons and mounts’ battle armor, were able to contend with lower-tier divine beasts alone.
This troop might have been small in number, but it actually represented a large part of the Blazing Prairie Tribe’s resources.
Those transporting materials, once armored, could transform into cavalry.
Yet Zhu Rong was still not quite satisfied, still eager to demonstrate the might of the Blazing Prairie Tribe.
For this little scheme of his, Han Muye said nothing.
Making the Blazing Prairie Tribe stronger had always been Zhu Rong’s motivating force.
Soon after the large caravan set off, it caught the attention of various tribes and divine beasts of the Wilderness.
Even though they had reduced their scale, their strength was still formidable enough to sweep through various groups.
Luckily, the Blazing Prairie Tribe’s forces did not interact with other tribes or divine beasts, just steadily moving forward.
“Their target seems to be Bu Taishan?” someone remarked from a distance as they watched the large troop march onward.
“The Blazing Prairie Tribe is truly formidable…” someone sighed, watching the team slowly disappear and then breathing a sigh of relief.
Following their route, the team acquired quite a few followers.
