The clan leader of the Xin Huo Clan, an old antique that had lived for more than a thousand eras, a true living fossil.
He was also the oldest living being that Qin Xiao had ever seen.
The vicissitudes of time had left many marks on his body. His body was slightly hunched as if it was bent by the merciless pressure of time.
Even his face was full of wrinkles that could not be removed even with the use of his godly power.
His hair was as white as silver, and his hair was as white as snow.
He held an ancient sword in his hand. What surprised Qin Xiao was that the sword was a Heaven-grade weapon.
Who would have thought that the weak Xin Huo Clan would be able to possess a heavenly weapon, this was indeed a very shocking matter.
One had to know that the Fei Liang Tribe that he met in the Heavenly Fire Secret Realm only had a Heaven-grade weapon. It was the clan's greatest treasure, just like the Laoshan Clan.
The Fei Liang Tribe was more than ten thousand times stronger than the Xin Huo Clan. They only had a Heaven-grade weapon as their clan's greatest treasure.
There was also the Sword King Saint Sect's Supreme Lord Jia Lan in the Hongmeng Universe. She was a fourth-step Celestial Venerable, but she did not have a Heaven-grade weapon.
Generally speaking, only Ancient Saints could have a Heaven-grade weapon.
Fourth-step Celestial Venerables who had a Heaven-grade weapon were extremely rare.
A first-step Celestial Venerable like the clan leader of the Xin Huo Clan who had a Heaven-grade weapon was even rarer. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was as rare as a phoenix feather or a qilin horn.
The sacrificial ceremony was actually quite simple. There were not many complicated things. After all, this was a small sacrificial ceremony and not a great one.
After the ceremony, the clan leader of the Xin Huo Clan stood up and said a few words. He praised Lie Wang and the other hunters. Then, Lie Wang and the others piled up all the spoils of war on the Xin Huo Platform, filling it up completely.
These hunting trophies were mostly various kinds of Demonic Beasts, as well as some Heaven and Earth Treasures.
The meat of monster beasts contained large amounts of Source Spirit that could be used to replenish one's strength. The same went for the treasures.
However, the meat of monster beasts could be eaten. Hence, this method of replenishing one's godly power was more popular.
Not only could they eat delicious food, but they could also replenish their godly power. This was killing two birds with one stone.
However, there were also some heaven and earth treasures that could be made into delicacies. These were all relatively popular things.
Although the spoils of war were piled up like mountains, the amount of food consumed by the Xin Huo Clan's over ten million people was also an astronomical figure.
Next, it was time to distribute the food according to the number of people. Each family only needed to send someone to collect the food.
The amount of food each person received was based on each person's strength and realm. There was a corresponding amount. Strictly speaking, everyone was equal.
Of course, the rules of the Xin Huo Clan were still very humane. Other than these rigid rules, there were still ways to deal with them. If any family had special needs, they could also request for more food.
For example, he could ask which family had injured people and so on.
Xiao Dao's family was relatively simple. It was just him and his sister. His parents were both hunters, but unfortunately, they had died during a hunt.
Therefore, the two of them were left to depend on each other.
"Haha, Brother Qin Xiao, the clan has given us a lot of extra food. It's enough for double the amount. The extra is for you to recuperate from your injuries, "Xiao Dao said to Qin Xiao happily after he finished collecting the food.
"There's also a share for me?" Qin Xiao was slightly stunned.
Xiao Dao nodded and smiled, "Yes, of course there's a share for you. Brother Qin Xiao, you are our Xin Huo Clan's guest. We can't possibly let our guest starve, can we? "
"Furthermore, you are an injured person, so we have given you enough food. You can eat without worry. If it's not enough, I can still apply for more. "
The Xin Huo Clan's hospitality truly touched Qin Xiao's heart.
"Thank you." Qin Xiao said.
Xiao Dao waved his hand and patted Qin Xiao, "Brother Qin Xiao, there's no need to be so polite. It's fate that brought us together."
Yes, it's fate that brought us together.
I will remember this kindness. Sometimes, Qin Xiao was indeed very lucky. On his path of cultivation, he met many people who helped him.
Maybe it was because his luck was especially good. Most of the time, he met good people.
The incident with Wolong Zhantian could be considered an accident.
However, Qin Xiao still believed that Wolong Zhantian was a good person. Even if Wolong Zhantian chose to side with the Wolong Sect in the end, Qin Xiao didn't blame him in his heart.
If that situation had happened to him at that time, perhaps Qin Xiao wouldn't know what to do.
"Xiao Dao, the clan leader asked you to bring this brother over. He said he wants to meet this brother." Suddenly, someone walked over and said to Xiao Dao.
After hearing this, Xiao Dao looked at Qin Xiao, asking for Qin Xiao's opinion.
Qin Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly. Why did the clan leader want to meet him?
But thinking about it, it shouldn't be a bad intention. Thus, Qin Xiao didn't think too much about it. He said to Xiao Dao, "Let's go, bring me to meet the senior clan leader."
Xiao Dao nodded and brought Qin Xiao to the back of the Torch Stage. The Torch Clan's clan leader was already waiting there.
"Junior Qin Xiao greets senior clan leader. I thank the Torch Clan for taking me in and giving me food. I, Qin Xiao, will remember this life-saving grace forever." Qin Xiao bowed respectfully.
Although the Xin Huo Clan's clan master's prowess was not necessarily stronger than him, he was after all, the clan master of the Xin Huo Clan. Now that Qin Xiao was indebted to the Xin Huo Clan's clan master, he naturally had to show due respect.
The Xin Huo Clan's clan master was still as stern as before, his face was stern and solemn.
But this face didn't make people feel cold or afraid. Although he looked cold and had a straight face, he still gave people the feeling that he was somewhat amiable.
The Torch Clan's clan leader's gaze fell on Qin Xiao. He carefully sized him up and raised his eyebrows slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, "According to the Old Man's knowledge, those who want to ascend from the universe and successfully reach the Saint Realm should be in the Heavenly Venerate level."
"There is a trace of the aura of a Heavenly Venerate on you. However, this aura is very weak, not like that of a Heavenly Venerate. "
"If the Old Man's guess is correct, then you should be in the Heavenly Venerate level. However, on the way to our Immortal Territory, you have encountered many dangerous situations that damaged your God Body, soul, and soul. You have also been hurt badly. That's why you look so weak. "
"You should be a first-step Heavenly Venerate, right?"
Hearing the Torch Clan's clan leader's analysis, Qin Xiao was secretly shocked. As expected of a living fossil that had lived for more than a thousand universe eras, his eyesight was really sharp.
Originally, he wanted to hide it a little, but now that he was directly exposed, how could he hide it?
Forget it, forget it, since it's exposed, then so be it.
Since the Torch Clan's clan leader had said so, Qin Xiao didn't hide anything anymore. He nodded directly and said, "Yes, Senior Torch Clan's clan leader, to tell you the truth, this junior is indeed a first-step Heavenly Venerate."
"The situation is indeed as Senior speculated. Now that my vitality is greatly damaged, my strength is probably only in the Sovereign Realm."
The Torch Clan's clan leader nodded slightly. Everything was within his expectations, so he naturally wasn't surprised at all.
"To be able to come out of the universe as a Heavenly Venerate is already a very amazing thing."
"It's a pity that our Torch Clan is too poor and backward, our temple is too small to accommodate a great bodhisattva like you. Otherwise, I would really want to accept you into our Torch Clan. "
After saying that, the Torch Clan's clan leader shook his head with a look of pity.
Qin Xiao couldn't help but smile. He couldn't deny this matter, it was indeed a fact.
The strongest in the Torch Clan was only a first-step Heavenly Venerate, the same level as him.
Indeed, the Torch Clan couldn't accommodate a great bodhisattva like him.
Therefore, it was naturally impossible to join the Torch Clan, and even more impractical.
"Once upon a time, my ambition was higher than the heavens. I always thought that my stage should be in the Middle Earth, only there could I shine with my supreme brilliance."
"But later on, I realized how laughable I was, how insignificant and how narrow-minded I was. The further I went, the more I realized that I couldn't even walk out of this world. "
"So when I saw you, I felt a little more emotional. Your stage should also be in the Middle-earth. Only there can represent the brilliance of our Immortal Realm. Our South Barren is too barren, too barren, a forgotten world. In the eyes of many, perhaps the South Barren has long ceased to exist.
It doesn't even exist anymore. "
The Torch Clan's clan leader said with a little bit of emotion.
From his words, Qin Xiao also obtained some useful information.
It seemed like the Middle Earth was the place he should go. This also gave Qin Xiao a definite goal in his heart.
With a goal, it was easy to do, he just needed to work towards it.
The Torch Clan's clan leader waved his hand and said, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."
"Little friend Qin Xiao, your vitality is greatly damaged, and your strength is greatly reduced. It's not good for you to leave this place to explore."
"Furthermore — — our place is too remote, it's too difficult to go to the Middle Earth from here. With your strength, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach it in your lifetime. "
"Let's not talk about this first, let's heal up first. It's not too late to talk about other things later."
"Our Torch Clan has always been hospitable. I see that you have a pure heart, you must be a gentleman. Don't worry and stay in our clan. It won't be too late for you to leave when your wounds are fully healed. "
"Later, I will ask you to send some medicinal pellets to you, I hope they will be helpful to you."
Qin Xiao immediately said gratefully, "Then this junior will shamelessly accept them. Thank you senior clan leader for your kindness, Qin Xiao is really grateful."
"After healing up, Qin Xiao will leave, I won't disturb you anymore."
The Torch Clan's clan leader waved his hand and said, "That's fine, it's up to you. Go."
After bidding farewell to the Torch Clan's clan leader, Qin Xiao and Xiao Dao walked back.
Qin Xiao's heart was also filled with emotions. It was the first time he had seen such a pure and kind clan.
From the clan leader to the children, they were all the same, all of them were pure and kind, without any malicious intent. They were all good people.
Qin Xiao was really grateful to be able to enjoy such treatment.
"Brother Qin Xiao, no, no, I should call you Senior Qin Xiao, or Big Brother Qin Xiao, okay?"
"Cough, I really didn't know you were a Heavenly Venerate. I thought you were a Universe-Grade. Sorry for the offense."
