I Steal the Ancestors' Sacrifices to Nourish Myself

Chapter 436 - 187: Sword Pointed at Xiaoyang

The fire meteors burned as they plummeted from the sky, breaking into dozens of pieces midair, creating a fiery rain that scattered into the yellow sand.

The avatar stealthily navigated through the yellow sand, heading towards the fallen meteors.

Within his body, the star dust grew increasingly radiant, and the falling meteors held a great allure for the avatar, making him intensely eager to devour them.

Upon seeing the meteors fall, the avatar suddenly felt as if he had been hungry for a very long time.

...

Rumble!

A fire meteor crashed into the yellow sand, the roar echoing throughout the sky and earth, and a massive crater spanning hundreds of miles instantly appeared in the sand.

Scorching waves of heat swept out, where the heated waves passed, the red fire quickly melted the yellow sand, forming brilliant rivers of molten lava.

In just a few short breaths, the remaining meteors also successively fell around, their waves intersecting and colliding, producing explosive sounds that spread outward in layers.

Simultaneously, in the sparse oasis tribes within thousands of miles around, martial artists also witnessed this scene and hurried towards the place where the meteors fell.

A meteor descended from the sky, scorched by celestial fire, these are excellent artifact refining materials.

If one could find a Tier Four star meteorite iron, it would be an enormous fortune.

Amidst the endless yellow sand, Shen Can’s avatar transformed into a giant beast, moving across the yellow sand like a mountain, leaving a long trail in the sand wherever it passed.

The avatar rushed straight to the periphery of the meteor landing site, seeing the cooling and congealing crystals.

The fire energy from the fallen meteors burned the yellow sand, transforming it into crystals infused with the fire element, some of which still emitted strands of metal and stone Qi.

Looking around, the vast area was still flickering with firelight, illuminating the surrounding darkness.

The avatar did not linger, heading straight for the meteor.

As for the fire element crystals, he would come back to collect them after devouring the meteor.

A meteor about a meter in size flickered with fire in a sea of flames and lava, its surface sparkling brilliantly with beaming starlight.

In the eyes of the avatar, the starlight emanating from this meteor resonated with the starlight inside him.

The avatar opened his mouth, seizing the opportunity to swallow the hot meteor.

He then quickly dashed towards the other meteor locations.

He should swallow all the remaining meteors first, to prevent others from snatching them.

When he arrived, he had already dispatched the clan members to follow, but their speed was too slow and it might take days for them to catch up.

Among the fallen meteor shower, the meteors ranged from a few meters to less than a foot, their energies stemming from the same source, all swallowed by the avatar.

After finishing this, the avatar started gathering the surrounding fire element crystals.

With the meteors gone, the flowing lava closest to the impact sites gradually cooled down.

It was not until dawn that he had collected all the crystals near the meteor landing site, and then others finally arrived.

The newcomers were not very strong, just ordinary Celestial Vein Martial Artists, and upon seeing the avatar in humanoid form, they fled far away in fright.

The avatar ignored them, continuing to collect fire element crystals.

This area, burned by the falling fire meteor shower, spanned two to three hundred miles, filled entirely with crystals. Although he had taken away those of good quality, even those slightly inferior could be placed into the Fire Spirit Land.

A few days later, the clan members arrived.

Similarly, people from several nearby tribes also arrived. These tribes were not very powerful, their leaders at most in the Celestial Vein Sixth or Seventh Layer, and they began to dig in a lively manner.

The crystal layer formed after the burning was mostly thin, with very few places reaching a thickness of a meter, with varying hardness according to its quality.

Seeing this, the avatar couldn’t be bothered to move, signalling to the clan members to take out the looted weapons, food, and other items, and started procuring on the spot.

Originally, these small tribes collected these crystals intending to sell them for resources, and unexpectedly being able to sell them directly, they were all overjoyed.

With the help of these small tribes, the crystals formed by the fallen meteors were quickly stored into the Witch Pouch of the Blazing Flame Tribe.

After learning that the avatar had obtained star meteorites and planned to refine these star meteorites next, Shen Can had the avatar quietly lead the clan members back from the sand.

Before leaving, the sand bandits previously gathered were all buried in the yellow sand.

As for lacking manpower next time, just capturing more would suffice. Yellow sand lacked nothing more than sand bandits.

The main reason for recalling the avatar was that these meteorites dropping from the heaven caused significant agitation within the avatar.

Stars flashed more brilliantly inside him, endlessly releasing starlight, washing over his body like blood and energy.

Therefore, Shen Can wanted to further study the avatar to understand what was going on.

Normally, the minerals previously consumed by the avatar were of metal and earth attributes, so the blood energy released should also have been dual attributes of metal and earth.

However, until now, the avatar had not generated blood energy but instead had a physique that continued to strengthen, all the consumed minerals transformed into nourishment for augmenting his physical form.

In truth, the avatar’s cultivation resembled more the Dao of the Stars than the Five Elements.

In the Great Wilderness for so many years, Shen Can had never heard of a cultivation path focused on the Dao of the Stars.

...

At this moment, within the Blazing Flame Race Territory, the Stone Tower.

Huo Chang was entertaining guests, the Grand Elder Yan Chixia from the Yanran Tribe.

"It seems your division will achieve advancement to the Bo Division in no time."

The Grand Elder Yanran spoke, not out of flattery, but stating a fact.

Huo Chang did not feign modesty, after serving tea to the Grand Elder Yanran, he asked, "I wonder what brings the Grand Elder here today?"
