My Descendants Are My Power

"Madness... sheer madness!"

A Druid, overlooked by the Lord of Frenzied Blood, stood pale-faced, staring at the sky in horror.

The sky was nearly obscured by fleets of ability vessels emerging from the inner city, their demonic occupants cheering and shouting.

Under the setting sun, Dawn's assassins streaked across the red clouds like a meteor shower, vanishing into the horizon at breakneck speed!

"Boom!"

The Silver Iron Forest, known as the most dangerous place since Gratitude Village, was stirring.

Rumored to house powerful beasts and countless demon kings, it was the most feared location for the Druids stationed at Gratitude Village.

Any Druid who ventured close would become prey to these beasts.

Now, as the shadows of the trees swayed, the beasts of the Silver Iron Forest emerged and lingered in Gratitude Village.

Many of the village's top fighters, as if they had known this would happen, laughed and called out 'old buddy' to the beasts, leaping onto their backs.

These overwhelming creatures charged in unison toward a single direction!

The volatile ability equipment masters...

The refined alchemists, pharmacists, and talisman masters...

Each one a steel beast...

Watching everything unfolding within the Blackwood stronghold, the Druid felt utterly hopeless.

He had spent thirty years in Gratitude Village, hearing rumors of the Clark tribe's annihilation but never feeling any fear because he believed Gratitude Village and Blackwood were weak.

But now, he realized they were not weak; they were a group of terrifying dormant beasts.

They had been quietly amassing a power that no tribe, not even a whole region, could contend with!

The middle-aged Druid glanced at the chieftain's corpse on the ground, his body adorned with a glowing tortoise shell, trembling as he picked it up.

This object was the Psychic Gear that connected the sacrifice and the chieftain.

"Great Sacrificer..."

He intended to report the current situation, but then he froze again.

Shadows enveloped everything around, the ground outside Gratitude Village cracked like a spiderweb, and the ten-meter-tall blood-red ancient tree within the village grew larger, its red canopy redder than the sunset.

Finally, at a hundred meters tall, the ancient tree's eyes opened on its trunk.

"Boom!"

Thunder roared in the sky, and a Stone beast emerged from the ground.

The sentient ancient trees around Gratitude Village walked with their roots, keeping pace with Blackwood's army.

"Great Sacrificer, we... are finished."

"Quick, let's take our people and run."

Once a county town in Tranquil County, the area had transformed into a massive mountain due to the Clark's settlement.

Inside a dark cave, the high priest Luke frowned, unsettled for reasons unknown.

Before him stood his subordinates, the sacrificers and chieftains.

"High Priest, over the years, by leveraging Blackwood, we've unified the Harris and White tribes.

Now both have become part of our tribe, and we occupy the entire Cloudview County.

We no longer need Blackwood; eliminating them is imperative!"

"Hahaha, the cowards of humanity, they think we Clark would really treat them as our own."

"Nicholas never lets us into the inner city of Gratitude Village, probably because he harbors ulterior motives.

It's best to eliminate Blackwood sooner rather than later to avoid future troubles."

Hearing this, Luke nodded slightly, his unease beginning to ease.

Why worry indeed?

For thirty years, he had been immensely grateful for his decision to collaborate with Blackwood. Through Blackwood, he had eliminated his rivals and gradually taken over the entire Cloudview County. Now, Clark was invincible within Cloudview County!

Even the two tribes that had originally come with Clark were now looking up to him, their high priests becoming his subordinates. The three other tribes that later wanted a share of his territory were driven away.

Now, Cloudview County had long become his land, and he might even break through Basic Mastery in a thousand years!

"Those not of our kind must have different hearts. Although Blackwood are cowards, they should not be underestimated."

Luke waved his hand nonchalantly, "Let the Beast Division and the Ghost Division go together. Half of Clark's strength should be enough to flatten Blackwood. I particularly like that seventh-grade ability tree in Blackwood; capture it and bring it back. And I want Nathan alive."

Mentioning Nathan, his eyes narrowed slightly, remembering the humiliation he had suffered at Nathan's birthday banquet.

"Yes!"

As the many priests and chieftains turned to leave, their expressions changed.

Their tortoise shells were flickering.

Luke's eyes hardened, and anger instantly enveloped the cave. Several chieftains reported to him that Blackwood had rebelled!

Just as they were about to deploy their Competent Force.

"High Priest, it's terrible! In our tribal land in the Endless Forest, someone was undergoing the Thunder Tribulation, and it was all... all destroyed in an instant!"

"High Priest, it's the Thunderfire Demon Cave! The experts from Cloudview County who were hiding there suddenly made a move today. They all rushed out and attacked Harris! And... and White, several immortals are rampaging in White, with Blackwood Olivia and the Celestial Star Swordmaster from Starlight County circling above White, waiting for their chance!"

"High Priest..."

These calls made Luke's expression dazed, as if he could feel tentacles silently stretching out from the darkness towards him.

He looked at the tortoise shell in his hand...

There was nothing unusual about it, the divination of the day showed neither good nor bad, only a dead calm like still water.

"High Priest!"

Suddenly, a tribesman hurried into the cave from outside, "Someone has broken in!"

Luke took a deep breath, "Is it Blackwood?"

"It's... no, not exactly."

The Druid shook his head, speaking softly, "It's just one person, the head of the Blackwood family, Nicholas!"

In the real world, within the vast ocean expanse.

The sea surface shimmered with persistent arcs of lightning, the waters turbulent as if recently struck by a powerful force, now forming whirlpools as steam rose into the sky.

In the gradually gathering clouds above, it seemed as if nine thunder dragons roared, unwilling to vanish into oblivion.

Mid-air, Ethan, holding the Celestial Pole Energy Spear and standing on the Twin Fish Harmony Seal, looked up at the sky, feeling the power he controlled within his body.

He had returned to the real world the day before the great family battle began, ready to break through!

The ninety-nine heavenly tribulations were truly nothing to him. Over thirty years of preparation and a wealth of resources were enough to elevate him to the mid-stage of Competent Force during the tribulation.

But at this moment.

Ethan's expression was somber, his face devoid of any joy.

"Whoosh..."

Rain began to fall on the sea surface, and Ethan slowly extended his hand to feel the raindrops in his palm, letting out a long sigh, "Maybe from the beginning, I shouldn't have let you bear all these responsibilities, no one should have to."

He shook his head and flew back towards home through the rain.

His eyes reddened, not using psychic powers to shield himself from the rain, as if hiding something.

He tightly clutched his smartphone, the screen displaying a room where, in the event log at the bottom right, all that was happening to his family was recorded.
