The Dominance of Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chapter 399: The War is Over, the Wu Clan Appears

No one knows who won or lost the battle. All the people on the battlefield disappeared.

The plain that could accommodate millions of people has disappeared, replaced by a bottomless pit.

For some reason, the sky above the giant pit is always shrouded in darkness.

Before the decisive battle between the Hao clan and the Snake clan, most of the clans either surrendered to the two clans or were exterminated by them.

Therefore, among these ethnic groups, as long as the men were able to hold weapons, they were sent to the battlefield by both ethnic groups to serve as combat forces.

Not only that, weapons, food, armor, and anything related to war were all piled up behind the battlefield.

With the disappearance of countless people and things, many ethnic groups fell into panic and grief.

However, this is just the beginning.

After that great battle, the gods disappeared.

The disappearance of the gods has caused humans to lose the method of cultivation and become unable to increase their strength.

Without the suppression and restraint of the gods, the order in the forest of gods also dissipated.

Foreign beasts, blood beasts, ferocious beasts, and beast kings no longer move within a fixed range as before.

They enter and exit the Forest of the Gods at will, causing the scope of human activities to be greatly reduced.

The places where people used to pick herbs and berries have now been occupied by wild beasts and are now full of dangers.

Those who had lost their methods of cultivation and were unable to become stronger huddled under the walls of their territories and stayed indoors all day long.

Even so, some tribes that raised large numbers of livestock still attracted the attention of some powerful wild beasts.

The result was that the tribe's gate was broken down by the beasts, and all living creatures in the territory died in the beasts' mouths.

Soon after, autumn arrived and the crops were harvested.

The people who hid in the territory due to the danger have consumed most of the remaining food in the tribe.

For the sake of their own lives and those of their loved ones, people had no choice but to pick up the few weapons and farm tools that were not sent to the battlefield and go out of the territory to harvest food.

However, there was a lot of food but few people, and the harvest was disturbed by wild beasts from time to time, resulting in low efficiency.

The problem is that if the crops are not harvested in the fall, they will rot in the fields during the winter.

Just when people were at a loss as to what to do, a group of people who called themselves the Wu tribe appeared in front of the gates of various tribes.

They were wearing armor, holding sharp weapons, and were very powerful. Most importantly, these people were all men in their prime.

People of all ethnic groups became even more panicked and uneasy because of their arrival.

Because the tribe has no power to resist them, and does not know the purpose of their coming?

Just when people thought that these people were going to plunder various ethnic groups at will, they actually only sent one person to communicate with each ethnic group, while the others stayed outside the gate to rest.

After communication, the various tribes learned that this group of people could help them pick medicinal herbs, berries, food, and drive away wild beasts.

As a price, the Wu tribe would take away some medicinal materials, food, livestock, technology and other things.

The specific quantity of these things will be decided after consultation between the various tribes and the Wu tribe.

However, there is one thing that the Wu clan must take away, and that is the slaves owned by each clan.

All ethnic groups were ecstatic and agreed to this matter decisively.

After all, the existing slaves are all weak people such as the elderly, children, and women who cannot go to the battlefield.

Keeping these people in the tribe would only waste the tribe's food.

As for the things that the Wu clan needs, there are some that the other clans have to rely on them first to obtain, and there are also some useless things that the other clans do not need for the time being.

After the deal was done, the Wu clan got to work.

Possessing great power, they not only completed the tasks of various tribes ahead of schedule, but also gave the wild beasts hunted during their work to various tribes free of charge.

All the tribes were grateful for this, and what the Wu tribe did was equivalent to saving their lives.

So, on the day when the Wu tribe completed their task, each tribe handed over the things that had been agreed upon before to them.

After the first successful transaction, the other tribes were no longer wary of the Wu tribe, and the two sides gradually started long-term transactions.

With food no longer in short supply and safety guaranteed, the tribes successfully passed the winter. Then, spring arrived, and with the help of the Wu tribe, the tribes successfully completed their sowing.

Then, as time passed, a new problem emerged among the various tribes that relied on the Wu tribe for survival.

The population of each ethnic group has been unable to grow.

In order to solve this problem, each ethnic group came up with a solution, which was to absorb the Wu people.

But no matter what conditions they offered, the Wu clan just didn't agree to it.

Some tribes were forced to propose that as long as the Wu tribe man they liked was willing to stay in the tribe, he would become the leader of the tribe.

But even so, no one from the Wu clan agreed to this.

Soon after, under the strong persuasion of various ethnic groups, both sides decided to resolve the issue through compromise.

When the men of the Wu tribe work, they no longer live outside the territories of each tribe, but instead live in places arranged by each tribe.

Although the various tribes were dissatisfied, under the tough attitude of the Wu tribe, they had no choice but to save their own race and not their own people.

Over time, the relationship between various ethnic groups and the Wu clan became closer, and they became more and more dependent on the Wu clan.

However, secretly, the various tribes still have certain doubts about the Wu tribe.

Where did they come from? Why were there so many men?
Until one day, doubts turned into conflicts.

One tribe suddenly discovered that one of the Wu people who came to work today was actually a slave they had originally handed over to the Wu tribe.

What made this group even more terrified was that the man's power had actually increased.

Afterwards, more and more people became slaves of the Wu people and were discovered by various tribes.

The various ethnic groups that had once shown malicious intent towards slaves were once again in panic and at a loss as to what to do.

The various tribes that did not understand why the Wu tribe wanted to turn slaves into tribe members began to exclude the Wu tribe and were no longer willing to trade with them.

The Wu clan had only one way to deal with this matter, and that was to suddenly disappear as if they had never appeared.

The disappearance of the Wu clan did not bring peace to other clans, but instead they regretted it to the fullest.

Without the help of the Wu tribe, the herds of animals that had been driven out and hunted gradually returned to their original state.

The various tribes that lost their food sources again due to lack of strength, and due to the growth of their population, their food was consumed at an increasingly faster rate.

When the food stored by various tribes was about to be completely eaten up, the Wu tribe returned.

This time, they did not agree to the deal proposed by each tribe, but instead told each tribe two things.

From now on, they will no longer help any ethnic group.

Anyone from any tribe who wants to join the Wu tribe can follow them.

At this point, all the tribes finally knew the purpose of the Wu tribe.

They want to absorb all people from all ethnic groups without shedding blood.

Without the help of the Wu tribe, staying in the tribe means death.

By leaving the tribe, one can become a warrior and obtain methods to become stronger.

Faced with this blatant conspiracy, the leaders of various ethnic groups were helpless.

After all, they had no way to stop their people and chose to live.

Therefore, except for some people who would rather die in the tribe than become outsiders, most people, including some leaders of various tribes, chose to leave with the Wu tribe.

Led by the Wu clan, these people came to the Wu clan’s territory.

People were surprised to find that this was where the Hao clan used to live.

They also met the leader of the Wu clan, a handsome man, Wu Yunsheng.

Looking at the sea of ​​clouds below, Qin Zhiming looked up at the sky with a smile on his face as he absorbed martial arts from all races.

"And then? What else do you want me to see?"
