Butai Mountain is 50,000 miles away from the Liaoyuan tribe. It is not a mountain with a radius of thousands of miles like Yunluo Mountain, but a huge mountain that connects to the wilderness and stretches for millions of miles.
There are many mythical beasts living there, and most of them are human groups who rely on the protection of the mythical beasts.
In the past, these human races worshiped totems of mythical beasts and struggled to survive in Mount Butai, which was millions of miles away.
Unlike in the wilderness where you can easily reproduce by hunting and planting, many of the human races there do not have enough food or clothing to keep warm due to the low production of mountains and forests in the Butai Mountains and the territorial awareness of the various mythical beasts.
"Clan Chief, the news from Zhao Ling is that the human race over there is indeed having a hard time." The big man who spoke looked at Zhu Rong.
Zhu Rong nodded and looked around: "I want to discuss this matter with Master Han."
Going on an expedition fifty thousand miles away is no small matter.
What's more important is to confront the groups of mythical beasts in Mount Butai.
Zhu Rong came to Han Muye's stone house and whispered about the incident.
"Master Han, Mount Butai is different from Yunluo Mountain. If we go less, we may not be able to win the spiritual mine. If there are too many people, it will cause the resentment of the mythical beasts on Mount Butai..."
This is Zhu Rong's dilemma.
What I'm afraid of is not having enough strength.
Today, the reputation of the Liaoyuan tribe is gradually spreading in the wilderness, and many large human tribes have also had some exchanges and contacts with them.
Zhu Rong also knew some of the practices of these large tribes.
Once the tribal group becomes strong, they will take the initiative to break up their own group.
This is so that those powerful mythical beasts will not be afraid.
This is also continuing the entire human race.
Their Liaoyuan tribe also differentiated from other large tribes layer by layer.
According to the opinions of some large tribes, the Liaoyuan Tribe is about to be noticed by those powerful mythical beast tribes.
The best way is to differentiate.
If this expedition shows too much strength, it will definitely attract the tribe of mythical beasts to take action.
Those are not just a few low-level mythical beasts and mid-level mythical beasts scattered around.
A group of mythical beasts can easily have dozens or hundreds of mythical beasts, and among them there are many high-ranking mythical beasts that guard one side.
"In this way, the number of people heading to Butai Mountain can be smaller and more supplies can be brought there."
"It's not in the form of an army expedition, but in the form of transactions."
Han Muye looked at Zhu Rong and spoke calmly.
It's not an army going to war, it's a trade.
Zhu Rong was slightly startled.
"Zhu Rong, the human race is not limited to the Liaoyuan tribe."
"I know that you have seen that the Liaoyuan tribe can be strong without the totem of a sacred beast. You want all other human races to live freely and not be enslaved by any sacred beast."
Han Muye looked at Zhu Rong with a hint of emotion in his voice.
Zhu Rong is very brave.
When I first met him, I was willing to step into the altar flames for the sake of the clan.
Later, he was willing to give up his own cultivation to help the entire clan.
But this sense of responsibility slowly continued and expanded, and eventually made him powerless.
One Zhu Rong cannot save all human beings.
When the prehistoric ruins world collapsed, the fate of the human race could only be changed by themselves.
"The way to change the fate of the human race is not to use a large army to rescue them or use force to remove obstacles for them."
"Our battle armor, divine patterns, our battle formations, and our inheritance are all fine."
"In fact, as long as they master this power, they will no longer be willing to be enslaved."
There seemed to be a trace of power in Han Muye's words that shocked people's hearts.
Zhu Rong didn't quite understand Han Muye's words.
But he knew that Han Muye must have seen further than him.
"Okay, then I will make arrangements now. We are not going to fight, we are going to trade."
Zhu Rong grinned at Han Muye, turned around and left.
Half a day later, the group began to take action.
Eight hundred wolf warriors and four hundred demonic bull warriors gathered together, followed by three thousand monster beasts of all kinds, carrying large baskets.
These baskets contained food from the Liaoyuan tribe, various kinds of sewn clothes, forged weapons, and some metals engraved with divine patterns.
Including battle armor, there are many installed.
It took five days to form a huge team of ten thousand people and collect various supplies.
By the time the large group of people set off, it was already ten days later.
This time, in addition to Zhu Rong, the team leader was also Han Muye.
Among the team, there are ten tribesmen who have divine pattern weapons that can stimulate the power of divine patterns. With the help of weapons and mounts and armor, they can compete with lower-level divine beasts on their own.
Although the army this time was small in number, it actually comprised most of the wealth of the entire Liaoyuan tribe.
Those tribesmen who transport supplies can become war knights by wearing battle armor.
Zhu Rong was still unwilling to do so, and still wanted to show off the power of the Liaoyuan tribe.
Regarding his little thoughts, Han Muye didn't say anything.
Making the Liaoyuan tribe stronger has always been Zhu Rong's motivation.
Not long after the huge caravan set off, it attracted the attention of various tribes and mythical beasts in the wilderness.
Even though the scale has been reduced, this large group of people still has the strength to sweep all ethnic groups.
Fortunately, the Liaoyuan tribe's army did not come into contact with other ethnic groups or divine beasts at all, and just moved forward directly.
"Their target seems to be Mount Bu Tai?" Someone said in a low voice, far away, watching the brigade move forward.
"The Liaoyuan Tribe is really strong..." Some people sighed and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the large group of people slowly leaving.
Along the way, the team was followed by many tailgaters.
Some are loose human races without the protection of divine beasts, and some are ethnic groups who are curious about the Liaoyuan tribe.
Zhu Rong and the others ignored these people and marched forward with their army to Mount Butai.
The caravan was not very fast, and it was only a month later that we could see the rolling mountains in the distance.
"Chief, I have brought tribesmen from some ethnic groups in Mount Butai, as well as several priests in charge." A group of tribesmen from the Liaoyuan tribe wearing soft armor came to greet the army, and the big man in the lead reported loudly.
This big man with good cultivation and the power to control divine patterns is Zhao Ling. He is a warrior in the Liaoyuan tribe and a close confidant of Zhu Rong.
The brave will naturally worship the brave.
Strong people will attract each other.
"Thank you for your hard work." Zhu Rong nodded and looked at the humans who were wearing similar clothes to his own back then.
Wearing a thick leather robe, as well as a wooden staff and a stone knife in his hand, his face was full of vigilance and panic.
These human races living in Butai Mountain have never seen such a powerful ethnic group as the Liaoyuan tribe.
They have only heard about the Liaoyuan tribe and the magic of the Liaoyuan tribe.
They made requests to Zhaoling and asked the Liaoyuan tribe to send troops, all of which were based on their own knowledge.
The powerful ethnic group they imagined should be similar to those large tribes in the wilderness.
But when they saw the large army of the Liaoyuan tribe, they were completely stunned.
The tribesmen in each tribe did not even dare to speak.
The priests were also trembling all over and could not speak complete words.
"We won't set foot in Butai Mountain now. You can trade the spiritual stones and minerals." Zhu Rong looked at these people and spoke in a deep voice.
What's the meaning?
The army is coming, but they won’t enter the mountain?
Is this because you don’t want to face off against those mythical beasts?
All human beings were at a loss.
"Our army is stationed at the foot of Butai Mountain. We will take out these goods and exchange them with you."
"You can exchange it for spiritual iron."
An explanation of Han Muye’s patience.
Instead of an army coming to Mount Butai to hunt divine beasts, they exchange items for spiritual stones and iron ore.
The humans who came to greet him were a little disappointed.
But when the Liaoyuan tribe gave them food, clothes, and a few weapons as gifts, they became happy again.
After they returned with the gifts, the Liaoyuan tribe's army began to station themselves at the foot of the fairly wide mountain.
In a large camp with a radius of thirty miles, the warriors dispersed.
The trading team formed a circle and put down various goods.
The first batch of spiritual minerals was delivered three days later.
The total weight is about three thousand kilograms.
In exchange for three hundred kilograms of rice, some meat, a few small blood stones, and two knives.
When the dozen or so humans took away these things, their faces showed uncontrollable joy.
Of course, if these three thousand kilograms of spiritual iron ore are refined, at least twenty long knives can be made.
Twenty long knives in the hands of a clansman with sufficient strength can fight against those monster beasts second only to the divine beasts.
Three thousand kilograms of spiritual iron is just the beginning.
In the following days, human beings from all walks of life came out of the mountains one after another and delivered tens of thousands of kilograms of spiritual iron.
Zhu Rong made a prompt decision and started the furnace at the foot of the mountain.
Flames soared into the sky, and the spiritual iron turned into molten iron.
Under the attention of the humans in Mount Bu Tai, these spiritual irons turned into weapons.
Not only that, Han Muye also changed the appearance of the forged weapons according to the characteristics of the high mountains and dense forests of Butai Mountain.
Short sword, short spear, short axe, short bow...
Those divine patterns rarely include flame divine patterns, but more of them are frost, confinement, entanglement, and hiding...
In one month, the amount of spiritual iron obtained from the transaction reached one million kilograms.
There are as many as three hundred ethnic groups that trade with the Liaoyuan tribe.
This made Zhu Rong ashamed.
If Han Muye hadn't said he was coming to trade and couldn't send out a large army to fight, he would have led his army directly into Mount Butai.
The result is that the army treks for a long time, fights with the mythical beasts, and perhaps saves a dozen or twenty human races.
It really isn't as easy as trading.
Moreover, how could the people of Mount Bu Tai, who had all kinds of weapons, had enough food to eat, and practiced with blood stones, still be as submissive as before?
Two months later, a small-scale battle took place on Mount Butai.
More than fifty humans held weapons and fought against a black bear with the blood of a mythical beast.
In the end, more than half of the human race suffered casualties, and the black bear beast was also killed.
The mythical beasts were hunted down, and the blood stones and various minions were taken to the Liaoyuan tribe and directly exchanged for five sets of battle armor, as well as two monster beasts that were good at traveling through the mountains, the land apes.
This battle is just the beginning of the dispute between humans and mythical beasts on Mount Butai.
After that, the refining furnace at the foot of the mountain was almost at full power.
The scattered members of the Liaoyuan tribe also attacked from all sides to hunt down those monsters and tame them.
In one year, at least 100 million kilograms of ore were sent down the mountain.
These ores were turned into tens of thousands of armors and hundreds of thousands of various weapons.
Food, clothes, and other resources are nothing in front of the most urgently needed weapons and armor.
As long as the armor and weapons were changed, later on, the humans who came from the mountains directly specified their own needs.
"I originally thought that such a deal would cause the divine beasts on Mount Butai to massacre the human race. It seems that I was wrong." Looking at the human race who happily exchanged their weapons and left, Zhu Rong sighed in a low voice.
Ordinarily, shouldn't those mythical beasts not allow humans to become powerful?
Now it seems that the human race has become stronger, and those mythical beasts have not really stopped them.
There are even contracted mythical beasts from ethnic groups to encourage their ethnic groups to increase their combat power and help them mine and find minerals.
"You have forgotten that the mythical beasts here are also divided into strong and weak. The truly powerful mythical beasts are all in the center of Butai Mountain. The mythical beasts on the edge are actually not strong." Han Muye chuckled and looked at the mountains in the distance.
Those mythical beasts that are not powerful have a hard time.
They also want to have resources and improve their bloodline power.
As the human tribes under your control increase in strength, wouldn't it be nice to be able to give them more offerings?
Instead of resisting the totem beast like the Liaoyuan tribe, they cooperate with their own totem beast. The stronger the tribe, the more benefits the totem beast can get.
Different approaches are all aimed at making the ethnic group strong.
Although in the eyes of the Zhu Rong and Liaoyuan tribesmen, such a compromise is still enslavement.
But the human race in Mount Tai is different.
They live in mountainous and forested areas with insufficient resources, and the number of members of the tribe is too small. The totem beast has always been the strongest pillar in their lives.
It is impossible for them to suddenly give up the totem beast, or even fall out with the totem beast.
Different ethnic groups have different lifestyles.
As long as the human race can be strong, how to get along with the totem beasts is their own business, so why bother?
What's more, the iron law of the world is that strength is respected.
When the strength of the family group exceeds that of the totem beast, is it still willing to be enslaved?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The status of both parties will change as their strength changes.
The trading circle under Mount Butai slowly expanded.
From a radius of thirty miles at the beginning, it has expanded to a radius of two hundred miles now.
The number of people from the Liaoyuan tribe stationed here has reached 100,000.
The caravans from the Liaoyuan Tribe headquarters travel here almost every month.
The expansion of this tribe is faster than here.
Most of the resources collected here and the battle armor refined here are sent back to the Liaoyuan Tribe headquarters.
The tribe of Butaishan cannot consume so many battle armors.
Not only could Bu Taishan be unable to consume so many battle armors, but even the Liaoyuan Tribe itself could not consume them.
In ten years, the number of residents of the Liaoyuan tribe at the foot of Mount Butai reached 300,000.
There are already millions of people in this tribe.
Various battle armors and weapons stationed at the foot of Butai Mountain have already piled up, and most of them were collected by Han Muye and stored in the storage space.
"Chief, Zhutian has sent news that several large tribes in the wasteland are coming to let our Liaoyuan tribe divide on its own."
The caravan arriving from our headquarters brought such news.
At the same time, there was news that the caravan was intercepted halfway and inspected and warned.
Divide ethnic groups.
When the size of a human race reaches millions, the mythical beast race will come forward.
Either you divide yourself, or you are scattered or even destroyed.
"What Zhutian means is, do you want us to declare to the outside world that the Liaoyuan tribe has been divided into two." The big man who delivered the news looked at Zhu Rong.
The expression on Zhu Rong's face slowly darkened.
The other Liaoyuan tribe members around also looked ugly.
"Master Han, you said it, it's finally time to make a choice." Taking a deep breath, Zhu Rong looked at Han Muye.
