Gu Zheng understood what the other party was saying. Since they had offered incense, their spiritual obsessions, regardless of whether they were sincere or not, would all be converted to you here. As long as they were willing to believe in you, they would be within your sphere of influence.
As for the ancestral god's sphere of influence, it was divided by the ancestral god's statue. However, no matter how many people there were, you could only build one statue and only one statue would be effective. The more people worshipped, the wider the area covered by the statue, but the additional power would not increase.
The only way to increase the power was to plunder the ancestral god's remaining power from the other party's ancestral god statue. Only then could the power increase, but the other party's power would decline forever.
However, it was impossible for the ancestral god to stay at home all the time, because once you became an ancestral god, you would have to bear some of the tribe's burdens. Therefore, you would often need to carry out some tasks outside.
Moreover, sometimes the administrator would directly give the order to attack the other party. At this time, the ancestral god could not participate in the battle and could only stay in his own tribe. All life and death on the battlefield was beyond his control.
Some stronger tribes would even sneak attack the smaller tribes. Everyone would fight. Fighting with Yaoyao was still manageable. After all, the other party only wanted to plunder a portion of the ancestral god's energy. However, the battle between humans and demons was much more tragic.
In fact, compared to the beginning, the rules had become much more complicated. After all, the quasi-saint also knew that blindly living in comfort would not lead to any progress. It was also a matter of forced bloodshed.
In this regard, the type of power that each statue could release would sometimes determine whether or not they could turn the tables or win the battle.
Take the Ravengale Island for example. Their strength was not limited to this, but why did they only send so few people? If you only looked at the number of people, it was almost the same. It was because the information of both sides was public. It was impossible for you to send more people to attack them. Even if you had many experts under you, you could only send so few people.
Moreover, they had to apply for permission from the higher-ups before they could act.
Moreover, the aura on Ren Jie's body had dropped by a level. Because the ancestral god statue was destroyed, their power was also rapidly dissipating.
The techniques that they cultivated were created by the quasi-saints themselves. All of them were exactly the same. They had to rely on the ancestral god and the ancestral god statue to improve themselves. Only when they reached the Jin Xian level could they break free.
No one here was allowed to cultivate foreign techniques, including the Goblin who had already lived here. Many Goblins were directly enlightened by the Sage-to-be and could only learn some techniques and explosive secret techniques from the outside world.
One had to know that this was the testing ground for Quasi-Sages. Although it seemed to be for the sake of everyone, everyone knew what his purpose was. If anyone dared to be a stone in his path, they would definitely be mercilessly crushed.
The Great Dao was heartless. None of them had been able to make the other party give up.
In an instant, this information flashed through Gu Zheng's mind. Looking at Ren Jie in front of him, Gu Zheng pondered for a moment and said.
"I'm an aggressive person, and I'm not good at magic. Let's prepare an offensive statue!"
"Alright, I understand!" Ren Jie nodded and leaped to the bow of the ship at the front. A figure walked out from the cabin.
It was Xia Qi, who was in charge of this operation. Ren Jie seemed to be arranging something for him, and Xia Qi kept nodding. Soon, he understood what was needed.
After Ren Jie finished his instructions, he quickly turned around and returned.
At this time, most of the captives had consciously entered the ship. Dozens of ships of different sizes had begun to move forward slowly.
The few people from before had also entered the cabin. They had to follow along and take inventory of supplies and other trivial matters.
Soon, these ships slowly sailed in the southwest direction and gradually became more and more distant. After a while, they became dozens of black dots.
"I need to go to the nearest city to hand over the ancestral god problem. Send someone familiar to follow me!" Gu Zheng said faintly.
Although Ren Jie wanted to follow him, there were still many things in the village that he needed to do, so he said directly.
"Let Elder Mei accompany you. She's in charge of purchasing most of the things. I believe there won't be any problems."
"Then let's move quickly!"
.....
Nanshui City was the last small city on the southernmost land. Although it was a city and there were many people gathered in it, what surprised Gu Zheng was that there were no walls here.
However, on second thought, it was normal to not have walls. Even if this city was only managed by a guard team, no one would dare to cause trouble here. Moreover, attacking this place was purely courting death.
Gu Zheng and Mei Luoyu spent seven days rushing all the way from the island. On the third day, they could already see the land. At first, Gu Zheng thought that they would arrive on shore. He didn't expect that there was only this small city in a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers. However, Gu Zheng saw a few small villages along the way.
Gu Zheng secretly sensed that there was a statue of a different appearance in each village. It seemed to be the ancestral god of their village.
However, from a distance, there wasn't any difference. At most, he could feel an inexplicable energy constantly surrounding his body. Previously, the statue in Xifeng Village had already shattered. At that time, when everyone respectfully sent him off, he could clearly feel it. So that's what it was.
He could clearly sense such subtle energy fluctuations here. It seemed that the Quasi-Sage had really put in a lot of effort.
"Lord Ancestral God, let's go in. Within a radius of a hundred kilometers, flying is forbidden. Anyone who flies in the sky will be attacked by the formation." Mei Luoyu said from afar.
Ren Jie had already told them about Gu Zheng's arrival. He was afraid that he didn't know about the situation, so he said it in advance.
Hearing this, Gu Zheng didn't want to challenge the strength of the restriction and quickly descended. Previously, he was curious about some people who had just arrived. They landed from afar and then ran towards Nanshui City on the ground.
Soon after, Gu Zheng also flew in that direction at a leisurely pace. Soon, he was nearing the place.
Under Mei Luoyu's lead, they quickly passed through a few streets and arrived outside a luxurious courtyard. Outside, there were two soldiers in full silver armor standing guard. There were also a dozen people with extraordinary auras standing outside.
Seeing the newcomers, one of the soldiers shouted.
"Please stop. Manager Feng is meeting important guests. Please wait outside."
Seeing this, Gu Zheng could only wait quietly with Mei Luoyu at the side. They stood at the end of the line.
Seeing Gu Zheng curiously looking at the mission in front, Mei Luoyu transmitted her voice to Gu Zheng.
"The burly man at the front with the yellow animal skin stretched out is the leader of a powerful village in the north. The second one is …"
Gu Zheng listened to Mei Luoyu's introduction with great interest. Most of the people here were the leaders of the various clans. There were three Goblin clans and the rest were all humans from nearby continents.
Because this was the time to distribute resources, so there were so many people here. Normally, no one would come here and there was no trade. There were only some commoners and Goblin who were waiting to be distributed and temporarily stayed here.
In any case, even the most burly person would be like a cat. Although the two guards in front of them were only at the early stage of the Sky Immortal Realm and spoke with a tone that warned people not to come close, no one dared to refute them. Instead, they had to greet them with a smile.
A seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister's door.
Everyone was familiar with each other. However, Gu Zheng's unfamiliar face made them feel puzzled. They often looked at him intentionally or unintentionally. This was because he was the only one here with another person. Everyone else came alone.
However, no one asked and just waited quietly.
Not long after Gu Zheng arrived, people began to line up. The soldier would notify everyone when they arrived.
Soon, there were a few more people behind Gu Zheng.
Although everyone knew each other, they were obviously not in the mood to talk to each other. They were all silently waiting for the administrator to entertain the important guests.
"Hey, so it's the people of the Xi Feng Clan. Your clan hasn't been devoured yet? That weak Ancestor God is so powerful that he has protected you until now. " Just when Gu Zheng's mind was wandering and thinking about other things, a voice suddenly appeared in the air. At the same time, Gu Zheng felt a gaze with ill intentions looking at him.
Gu Zheng followed the gaze and saw a thin and tall youth who had just arrived. He had a pointy mouth and monkey cheeks and was looking at him provocatively. It could also be said that he was looking at Mei Luoyu who was beside him.
"In the past, our tribe was captured by the demons, and then we were forced to merge. In the end, because we offended the Ancestor God over there, our group was chased out. Moreover, they sent a notice to the other tribe members who took us in, and because that Renwei King was relatively big, everyone in our tribe was chased out together. Fortunately, there was someone who took us in at that time, and you know the result."
Mei Luoyu quickly explained to Gu Zheng. She looked a little embarrassed. After all, this was their dark history.
Gu Zheng was also stunned. Ren Jie didn't tell him about their story. It turned out that there were so many twists and turns. No wonder the villagers were so agitated at that time.
"What? Is your clan leader, Ren Jie, dead? I remember that he was very proud at that time." The thin man said with a mocking face.
Because the energy here was much easier to sense, once you tried to probe the other party, it would be easy for the other party to sense it and cause unnecessary misunderstandings. Therefore, no matter what, it was already a habit to not probe the other party's information.
However, there was no need to probe. That was only when the other party's strength was on par or when the other party was uncertain. With a glance, Gu Zheng could tell that this ordinary-looking thin man's strength had already reached the peak of the Heaven Immortal realm. Gu Zheng felt some admiration for him. No wonder the other party looked so proud.
Although the clansmen here were all clan leaders, most of them were only at the mid Heaven Immortal realm. Only a few of them were at the late Heaven Immortal realm.
"Don't talk nonsense. My clan leader is still fine. Not long ago, he even repelled the demons' attack." Mei Luoyu immediately retorted.
"Hehe, I believe you when you say that you repelled the demons' attack. However, I don't believe that Ren Jie is still alive. You should know that without the clan leader's token, you can't take the resources. Could it be that you're just here to take a look and don't plan to take the resources?" The thin man chuckled and ridiculed.
The two soldiers didn't ask about what was going on here. As long as they didn't fight, they didn't care what the other party did. It had nothing to do with them.
As for the others, they were just watching the show. After all, the other party was just talking nonsense. It wasn't bad to have some fun.
Most of the people here were from the continent. Only the three demons were from the southern sea region. However, everyone had heard of the West Feng Clan. After all, they were chased out by so many clans. Such a grand occasion hadn't happened in tens of thousands of years.
"What does what we do have to do with you? Guan Xi, don't talk nonsense. If you're not convinced, just fight. Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Mei Luoyu raised her eyebrows and immediately shouted.
Gu Zheng didn't expect the voluptuous Elder Mei to have such a forthright side. He didn't see it at all before.
"Ha!" The thin Guan Xi didn't expect Mei Luoyu to be so unyielding at this time. Logically speaking, they had a hard time surviving. If it wasn't for someone secretly giving them a batch of resources, many of them would have starved to death. However, when he saw the disdain on the faces of some people, he felt a little embarrassed.
Back then, his village was the first to chase them out. Moreover, he was the one who took the lead. He wasn't afraid of them at all.
Guan Xi instantly walked up and rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was about to fight. He even attracted the attention of the soldiers. His hands were already holding onto their weapons. As long as the other party dared to make a move here, no matter who it was, they wouldn't be able to escape death.
The people watching the show knew that this was his usual tactic. He used it to scare the other party. He definitely wouldn't dare to make a move because he didn't want to die so early.
However, just as he took two steps forward, a figure blocked in front of him, standing right between him and Mei Luoyu.
Gu Zheng was nearly a head taller than him, so Guan Xi had to raise his head to see Gu Zheng's face.
In fact, he had already noticed him. However, he had a newcomer's face, especially his handsome face, which made him even more annoyed. In his opinion, this was probably Mei Luoyu bringing her pancake head to see the world.
In Xi Feng Village, she was the person with the highest cultivation after Ren Jie. It was natural for her to think that Ren Jie had died in the previous battle and that Mei Luoyu was the next chief. It couldn't be any more normal.
Therefore, seeing Gu Zheng overestimating himself and blocking in front of him, Guan Xi showed a trace of impatience and coldly snorted at him.
"Who do you think you are? How dare you block my path."
He had thought that Gu Zheng was just a nameless pawn. He had taken Gu Zheng's calm expression as cowardice. As for himself, he was the leader of a clan. What was there to be afraid of?
Seeing this person looking at him provocatively, Gu Zheng couldn't help but smile. Perhaps the people here had been relatively comfortable for too long and actually dared to casually shout at a stranger. If it was outside, there would be someone who would teach him a lesson.
"I'm nothing, but this time I'm here to be the ancestor god of Xi Feng Village, so I think it's better for you to stay away from me! It'll save you trouble. "
If an ordinary person really dared to recklessly challenge an ancestor god in front of everyone, then his death wouldn't be in vain.
"You! Don't carelessly pretend to be one, be careful not to bring disaster to yourself. "
Although Guan Xi was shocked and took a few steps back, he still spoke disdainfully.
Because he knew that there was an ancestor god in Xi Feng Village, after thinking for a moment, he stopped again and threatened Gu Zheng.
"Don't be an alarmist here. Our previous ancestor god has already left, and this is our new ancestor god. If you dare to talk nonsense, we'll duel directly. Do you think I'm afraid of you?" Mei Luoyu walked out and scolded Guan Xi.
"Who's afraid of you, I'm just too lazy to cause trouble!" Guan Xi clicked his tongue, but he still retreated. At this moment, Manager Feng had already walked out with another person, and he couldn't let him see. After all, he was the manager of all the nearby villages.
Of course, more importantly, although he said that, in fact, he already believed what the other party said, and he didn't want to make trouble for himself.
If the other party was really an ancestor god and taught him a lesson for no reason, he could only admit that he was unlucky.
Everyone shifted their gaze from Gu Zheng to the person who could make Manager Feng personally come out to see him off.
It was just an ancestor god, and he had found such a dilapidated tribe. He was probably a wandering ancestor god with the lowest strength, so he couldn't wait to find a small tribe.
One had to know that such a remote place, especially an isolated island in the sea, had a small population, and people with even the slightest bit of ability wouldn't go there.
What everyone was most curious about was Manager Feng's guest, but that person was covered in a layer of black robes, and even his face was hidden, so no one could see his true appearance.
Manager Feng politely cupped his hands to this person, and then the black-robed person nodded and flew out. From the beginning to the end, he didn't look at these people, as if they were air.
In order not to attract the other party's attention, Gu Zheng also didn't look at the other party, but he vaguely felt a familiar aura, as if he had just seen it not long ago, which made Gu Zheng very puzzled.
However, the other party stayed for too short a time, and before Gu Zheng could connect the dots, the other party left, which interrupted Gu Zheng's train of thought.
After the manager sent off the mysterious person, he also walked back leisurely.
At this time, the soldiers began to let the people in the front row in order to start entering.
Everyone's speed was very fast, and in less than the time it took to brew a cup of tea, one person would come out and leave directly.
As Gu Zheng lined up, he tried to find the feeling from before, but when it was almost his turn, he still couldn't remember what exactly attracted him, because the aura of the mysterious person was too faint.
If the other party hadn't passed by him when he left, he would have ignored him.
Gu Zheng didn't care about the gaze behind him at all, it was just a small Luoluo, no matter what conflict he had with West Wind Village, he would deal with it.
Gu Zheng wasn't a person who was afraid of trouble, as long as the other party dared to look for trouble, he would let them know what it meant to provoke someone they shouldn't.
It should be known that if no one saw you in the wilderness, then the danger would greatly increase. In fact, as long as no one saw what you did, then what you did could be completely ignored.
Of course, if you dared to do something excessive, such as exterminating an entire clan, such a big thing, you couldn't hide it even if you wanted to.
Soon, it was Gu Zheng's turn to enter. After passing through a small courtyard, they came to a small room that looked like a small living room.
"Where are you from!" Manager Feng said without raising his head when he heard someone come in. On the table in front of him, there was a map that covered more than half of the table. It was different from ordinary maps. This map was constantly rippling like water, and there were many faint red dots on it.
"We are not here to receive supplies, but to register as the ancestor gods of West Wind Village!"
