After fusing with the Totem, Meng 37 felt better than ever before. As for the hateful eye in the Totem, there was actually some mention of it in the secret technique that taught him how to deprive Totems.

The eye was said to be the hatred of those who had their Totems stolen away. From now on, each time he further advanced his Totem, he would be disturbed by the hate contained inside, which was a consequence of depriving someone elses Totem.

Of course, there was also a certain benefit to this hatred, as each time Meng 37 utilized his Totem, this hatred would also appear to disturb the minds of others, which would act as an extension of his combat prowess.

I was able to kill you when you were alive, and you can only support after youre dead Meng 37 declared with a cruel expression, sensed the overflowing power of his Totem, then happily smiled.

Now that he had become a Warrior, Meng 37 took out the beast tooth hanging in front of his chest and focused power from the Totem on his back into this hand; bit by bit, Cede was being taken from the Ancestral Wild through the Totem and imbued into the beast tooth.

Ever since he obtained the beast tooth, Meng 37 had always wanted to know what kind of secrets this beast tooth was hiding. Being capable of extracting natural energy from around a person to strengthen themselves, this kind of treasure was simply unimaginable.

As the Cede poured in, Meng 37s mind was gradually entering the beast tooth as well, causing a large amount of information to pour into his mind in reverse, impacting his soul. It then took his soul out of his body, overlapped it with his Totem and followed the path of the Cede into a strange place.

Meng 37 felt his body undergoing an indescribable change as if his 5 senses hadnt only been heightened but completely released, granting him sublimation.

As he examined himself, he noticed that his current appearance was that of his Totem, which was a portion of a large serpent.

Earlier, he was too weak to even notice what his Totem looked like, but now without needing to reach around in the dark, he had perfect knowledge of what he should be striving towards: to completely manifest the form of this giant serpent.

Other than this, when Meng 37 followed this serpent, he noticed that there were plenty of Totems in this strange location and that he could move around here as he wished.

That unicorn Meng 37 suddenly noticed a unicorn, recognizing it as the Totem of the guard captain who arrested him. It was only now that he understood how powerful that person was, being able to manifest such a large portion of the complete Totem.

Is this the Ancestral Wild?

Meng 37 gradually realized that this place was actually the inside of the Ancestral Wild, or perhaps a part of the Ancestral Wild. With his current senses, the majority of his surroundings were actually dim and unclear, only a few things could be accurately discerned.

At the same time, Meng 37 also noticed something interesting about this great serpent Totem. While he had only taken up a small portion of the serpent, he was able to observe the entire serpent as a whole; whenever he focused his mental power on the serpent, he could also discover others who carried this same Totem.

Feeling a bit drained, Meng 37 slowly left the Totem and returned to his body.

Meng Luo of the Meng tribe, he also possesses a portion of the serpent Totem.

Meng 37s mind was rapidly changing between various thoughts.

Being affected by the atmosphere of the tribe, or the world as a whole, the utmost desire of all Desolates was to become stronger and break through their own limits.

And after depriving the Totem, Meng 37 had truly felt his own advancement, which wasnt limited to only his strength, but also his mind.

Or perhaps, ever since he killed the slaves in the mines to flee from the tribe, this mental change of his had been ongoing.

A tribe is the power of a group, but this type of power is difficult to gather as one.

Meng 37 understood the importance of a tribe, but also the fact that it wasnt always necessary. His previous thoughts of leaving this place to look for a new tribe was now being put down.

If I do that, I would only have to gather the offerings step by step to nurture my own Totem, but that would be too slow

Meng 37s internal bottom-line had already been broken through the depriving ritual, and so were the mental obstacles within his mind.

I need to press my advantage to hunt other possessors of the same Totem and take their Totems for myself.

Meng 37 was unable to suppress these thoughts from manifesting in his mind.

The depriving technique had pointed out that if he stole Totems of a different kind to his own, it would cause the two Totems to conflict. But now that Meng 37 was able to detect other possessors of his Totem, this conflict no longer existed.

By hunting them down and depriving their Totems, Meng 37 would be able to manifest a complete Totem in the shortest possible time, which would be significantly faster than slowly hunting prey and offering them.

This ritual is wicked, this behavior is terrifying Meng 37 muttered to himself: But if it can make me stronger, then it would all be worth it

If this world was a novel, then the [Protagonist] would be an anti-hero, or even villain type main character! sitting outside, Killer J noticed the change in Meng 37s hostility and smirked. The amount of information Killer J was able to read from his hostility was much greater than he had imagined.

In the end, Meng 37 had only just begun his path of cultivating supernatural power. His control over his power wasnt that great, let alone over his thoughts. All of his intentions and plans were spreading in an unrestrained manner, so it was exceptionally easy to discern his thoughts.

In short, he was too green.

Should I give his hunting journey a few more colors? Killer J tilted his head to consider what he should do.

His chaotic train of thought and logic began to move, ultimately ending with a conclusion only known to Killer J himself before he vanished from Meng 37s surroundings.

At another location, a young woman with long black hair slightly closed her eyes as she left a secret underground room with a gentle smile on her face.

Under the warm light of the sun, the woman stretched her tired back with a joyous expression while humming an unknown song, then turned to Noah who was standing a bit further away.

Still wearing a simple black robe and no discernible expression on his handsome face, he was in stark contrast to the woman.

Good morning, Noah Lan Shan happily greeted him.

The two of them had an even closer relations.h.i.+p compared to that of family members, and was there anything more delightful than meeting someone close to you as soon as you woke up? Especially when a golden eye slowly manifested behind him, Lan Shan felt even more delighted.

As the embodiment of Negarys emotions, Lan Shan had very similar abilities to Negary and had also inherited Negarys near-perfect level of charms. She was capable of sharply sensing the mental changes of any lifeforms, while her combat prowess was lacking compared to Noah and Killer J, her research capabilities far surpa.s.sed the two of them.

Quite a few of Negarys current research topics were being left to her to conduct, compared to Noah and Killer J, Lan Shan was closer to being a researcher. Of course, if anyone underestimated her, they would have nothing less than a death wish.

As the embodiment of one of Negarys sides, Lan Shans application of knowledge wasnt at all lacking compared to Negary, as long as she had corresponding preparations, her explosive prowess might even surpa.s.s the other two.
