The Quest for Immortality

The miasma blended from the hunger disaster was like a ”Great Wall”, completely isolating everyone.

The path ahead was completely blocked.

Everyone’s expressions became grave.

If they wanted to continue towards Danque Mountain, where the main Danque Tribe was located, they had to cross the mountain range in front of them. .

However, the air of the hunger disaster had withered the entire mountain range. Crossing over, everyone would probably ”starve” to death.

Dan Zhu looked at Mo Hua.

Mo Hua frowned, deep in thought, but could not come up with a good plan for the moment.

He had a way for himself, to use the Law to construct and suppress the hunger disaster air, allowing him to cross the mountain range ahead.

But this was only a small-scale suppression and could not quell the hunger disaster on a large scale.

With a force of six thousand people, the numbers were too great, and forcibly crossing the hunger disaster area, even a slight mistake would lead to cannibalism, resulting in complete annihilation of the army.

Mo Hua’s gaze was heavy.

The heavenly secret was worsening, an eerie shadow floating in his heart, and time was running out.

The more it was like this, the more minor matters would delay time and progress.

But being anxious was useless.

The road blocked by the hunger disaster led only to a dead end.

And so two more days were delayed.

While the problem of the hunger disaster blocking the road was not yet resolved, another more troublesome issue arose:

”There’s not enough food.”

Under the hunger disaster, there was already little to eat in the Great Wilderness, and the food for a marching force of six thousand was also massively consumed.

The supplies they brought were only enough to last for a month.

Now they had been away from the Ushasha Mountain Realm for more than half a month and soon the food would run out.

Thus all the Barbarian Soldiers would have empty stomachs.

Although cultivators had strong physiques, not easily starving to death and able to fast for a long time, Blood Qi would still deplete.

Once depleted to a certain extent, they would still feel extreme hunger.

If the Barbarian Soldiers starved for too long, even without contacting the hunger disaster air, they would lose their sanity driven by hunger, inciting unrest.

This was also a situation Mo Hua had not foreseen.

He anticipated the hunger disaster, but underestimated the severity of it.

If this issue was not resolved, a mutiny was only a matter of time.

Once a mutiny occurred, losing the foundation, everything else wouldn’t need further consideration.

Dan Zhu and the others obviously realized this issue too, all wore worried expressions.

At this moment, Lugu said to everyone, ”We should change our route.”

”Change the route?”

”Yes,” Lugu said, ”Instead of going to the Danque Tribe, we should first go to the Sibone Tribe.”

”Sibone…” Chi Feng’s pupils contracted.

Mo Hua didn’t quite understand what ”Sibone” was, so Dan Zhu explained in a low voice:

”Sibone is Lugu’s elder brother, also another Main General of the Shugubu, in the Late Golden Core Stage, slightly stronger than Lugu.”

”Sibone and Lugu are the two strongest Generals in the Shugubu.”

Mo Hua nodded slightly.

Lugu said, ”About a hundred miles west, there’s the Sibone tribe where my brother resides. We can rest there temporarily and request some supplies.”

Chi Feng shook his head and said, ”No.”

Lugu looked at Chi Feng and sneered, ”What? Are you scared?”

Chi Feng’s face looked unpleasant.

Mo Hua found it odd, turning to look at Chi Feng’s expression and the repressed resentment in his eyes, finally gaining a bit of understanding in his heart.

Chi Feng should have a grievance with Sibone.

One being a Barbarian General of the Danque Tribe, and one a General of the Shugubu, it was likely they had crossed paths.

And clearly, Chi Feng had been defeated by Sibone.

Even many of the wounds on his body were left by Sibone.

Thus, he harbored hostility and fear towards this Sibone.

Chi Feng said with a cold and stern look, ”Sibone is a local hegemon, ruthless in his methods, now is not the time to associate with him.”

Lugu asked him, ”How does my brother Sibone compare to your Danque Tribe’s Great Chief?”

Chi Feng replied, ”Naturally, my Danque Tribe’s Great Chief is stronger.”

Lugu seemed to smile but not smile and said, ”I dare to personally meet your Danque Tribe’s Great Chief, yet you’re unwilling to follow me to meet my brother Sibone?”

”Is this all the courage the Young Master and Barbarian General of the Danque Tribe have? Or do you think my brother Sibone is stronger and makes you more fearful than your Great Chief?”

Chi Feng showed anger, but he was tenacious and experienced, naturally, he wouldn’t rise to Lugu’s provocation, simply saying:

”The Great Chief speaks of righteousness, but your brother Sibone may not.”

”We avoid him for the safety of Young Master Dan Zhu. Otherwise, with Sibone’s ambitious and wild heart, who knows what he might do.”

Lugu’s gaze turned icy as he looked at Dan Zhu and asked, ”Young Master Dan Zhu, what do you think? Do you dare meet my brother?”

Dan Zhu remained silent.

It wasn’t that he didn’t dare, but rather, Mr. Witch had taught him that a child of high status should not sit beneath the eaves.

To achieve great things, one must cherish one’s life.

At this moment, Mo Hua suddenly said:

”We can.”

Dan Zhu was startled, Chi Feng puzzled.

Even Lugu was a bit surprised.

”We can,” Mo Hua nodded, ”We will change course to meet your brother Sibone.”

Lugu was silent for a moment, but since Mo Hua agreed, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

”As expected of Mr. Witch, indeed courageous…” Lugu said with a faint smile, ”Then it’s settled.”

Once they met his brother Sibone, and the two Late Golden Core Stage Generals joined forces.

Even with Chi Feng, Dan Zhu, and over one hundred and fifty Bone Heavy Armor soldiers, they couldn’t protect him, this Demon Shaman.

If the two brothers worked together to kill strongly, this Demon Shaman would undoubtedly die.

Even if they didn’t truly kill this Demon Shaman, just using force to threaten and coercively detain him would be feasible.

Best if they could pry out the secret of forging the Ancestor Shubu’s Heavy Armor from this Demon Shaman’s mouth, that would be the most crucial…

Lugu looked at Mo Hua, without revealing any sign.

Mo Hua’s gaze was clear, his expression serene.
