Legendary Battle Pet

In contrast, the Wu God advised His followers that there was no need for constant prayer to Him. The disparity between these deities is indeed indescribable.

This approach of the Wu God significantly improved Ethen's impression of Him.

"Shaman elder, when were the 108 tribes of the prairie established?" Ethen asked.

"This question is quite straightforward. After the chaotic battles involving the visitors from another world, only 106 remained..."

According to the Grand Shaman's narrative, Ethen learned that after the Wu God defeated these 106 interworld visitors, they all chose to believe in the Wu God, making it difficult for them to directly engage in conflict with one another.

However, a spirit of competition still existed among them.

Since they couldn't directly attack each other, they decided to cultivate followers to see whose group of believers would become more powerful, thereby satisfying their competitive nature.

Thus, these 106 powerful interworld visitors made pacts with 106 tribes, becoming the sacred totems of these tribes.

The sacred totems would protect the tribes, and in return, the tribes people would worship these sacred totems while also believing in the Wu God. This marks the beginning of the Era of Totems.

When the interworld visitors expanded their influence through tribal contracts, the earlier arrivals, the Sky Piercing Black Eagle and the Leopard Tribe, were not to be outdone. They also made pacts with the Black Eagle Tribe and the Leopard Tribe, respectively, becoming sacred totems.

"This is why the 108 tribes each have their own unique sacred totems."

After listening to the Grand Shaman's explanation, Ethen gained a clearer understanding of the prairie's history.

Immediately, he recalled an earlier question.

"Shaman elder, what is the relationship between this and the sacred totems placing their soul fragments in the Endless Abyss?"

"Yes, Shaman Grandma, what's the connection?" Eagle Mei also inquired.

"Hehe, the reason is quite simple. If you listened carefully just now, you should have noticed a clue."

The Grand Shaman smiled slightly, looking at Ethen and Mei with a challenging gaze.

A clue?

Ethen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he blurted out, "Shaman elder, I just heard you mention that it's been over 90,000 years since the challenge between the Saint Totem Lord and the one from the Leopard Tribe. Doesn't that mean the two Saint Totems are soon due for another battle?"

Hearing Ethen's words, a clear look of appreciation flashed in the Grand Shaman's eyes.

"You are quite perceptive. I can tell you with certainty that this year marks 99,998 years since the last challenge, meaning the next battle is less than two years away."

Less than two years?

This statement brought a heavy look to the eyes of both Ethen and Mei.

Does this mean that in less than two years, the two great Saint Totems will once again engage in an earth shattering battle?

The first battle transformed Longwan into Billion Mountain.

What kind of upheaval will this next one bring?

How many living beings will face destruction as a result? Mei suddenly grew tense.

"Shaman Grandma, since everyone believes in the Wu God and the Wu God teaches us to love peace, why doesn't He stop the battle between the two Holy Totems?"

"Hehe, Mei, you're still young, and there are many things you don't understand."

The Grand Shaman patted Mei's head and said sincerely, "In this world, there are certain laws that even gods cannot change."

"As the saying goes, where there are people, there will be schemes and intrigues, competition, and conflict. Everyone lives for their own interests, and disputes are inevitable. These conflicts can be temporarily suppressed but cannot disappear permanently."

"In fact, the lofty Holy Totems are much like humans; they also have various conflicts among themselves. The Wu God has managed to suppress these conflicts and maintain nearly 100,000 years of peace, which is already quite remarkable."

"The contradictions between the major Holy Totems have reached an irreconcilable point over time, making conflict and even war inevitable."

"The great Wu God understands the nature of living beings. He knows that the alternation of war and peace is the main theme of the world. Pursuing universal love and non aggression blindly is not the right approach. Therefore, the great Wu God and the Holy Totem Lords of the 108 tribes agreed that 100,000 years after the meteor's arrival, they would be allowed to engage in warfare for 100 years."

"During these 100 years, they can resolve past grievances, vie for power and profit, and even mobilize their followers to attack the followers of other totems."

"For the major Holy Totems, who have endured for 100,000 years, this is a rare opportunity."

"All the Holy Totems are actively preparing for battle."

"Our Holy Totem Lord is no exception. If my guess is correct, the Lord placed a fragment of its soul in the Endless Abyss to allow the relentless thunderous gales within to temper and strengthen the soul fragment."

"I haven't heard of any other tribe's Holy Totem being able to cultivate soul fragments. Therefore, this must be a deliberate act by the Holy Totem Lord..."

The Grand Shaman's eyes gleamed with insight. So that's how it is! Ethen and Mei both showed an expression of understanding.

Although they knew it was merely the Grand Shaman's speculation, they had to admit that the hypothesis made a lot of sense.

Moreover, in the entire Black Eagle Tribe, the Grand Shaman was the one who understood the Sky Piercing Black Eagle the most. Her words were certainly not without basis.

"So that soul fragment is using the thunderous gales for cultivation. The Sky Piercing Black Eagle has truly hidden its intentions well..."

Ethen smiled slightly to himself, then promptly asked the Grand Shaman for guidance on how to reach the Endless Abyss.

"The Endless Abyss is not far from here, but it is extremely perilous inside. Mei, you have been to the outskirts of the Endless Abyss before. Why not lead Ethen and the Multicolor Wucai Bird there?" the Grand Shaman suggested.
