After transmigrating into a primitive world, Jiang Xuan decides to carve out a future with his own two hands.
No golden finger, no system—just sweat, tools, and determination.
He clears...
Chapter 243 Do you want to be a totem god?
On the other side, the warriors of the Crocodile Tribe were also at a loss when they saw this scene.
Someone asked, "Chief, this giant frog has come out again, should we attack it?"
Scale Armor observed for a moment and said, "Wait a moment, this giant frog seems to be in pain now."
Some hope arose in Linjia's heart. Judging from the giant frog's performance, perhaps Jiang Xuan and the others were still alive.
Inside the giant frog, the roots of the divine vine continued to grow, and it treated the entire giant frog as fertilizer.
Protected by the light shield, although the giant frog rolled violently, Jiang Xuan and the others were only dizzy and were not in any danger of life.
Finally, the giant frog couldn't stand it anymore.
It lay on the ground, opened its mouth wide, and tried to spit out the people and crocodiles it had eaten.
"vomit……"
The giant frog kept retching, and its mouth grew particularly large.
“Buzz…”
The divine vine grew rapidly towards the giant frog's mouth, becoming bigger and thicker, and finally growing out of the giant frog's mouth.
"Oh my god, there are vines growing out of that giant frog's mouth!"
The warriors of the Crocodile Tribe were stunned. They had never seen such a scene before.
Even Scale Armor found it unbelievable and couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Eer..."
The glutinous rice balls in the sky became excited because they were very familiar with the divine vine and knew that it was extremely powerful and could definitely subdue the giant frog.
Not long after, a green ball of light moved out from the giant frog's belly little by little, and finally fell out of the giant frog's mouth and landed on the ground.
"Boo..."
The ball of light burst like a bubble, and the figures of Jiang Xuan, Qingye, and the big crocodile appeared!
"Chief, they are the leaders of the Qingye and Fuji tribes, they are still alive!"
"Very good!"
The warriors of the Crocodile Tribe cheered excitedly. They witnessed a miracle with their own eyes.
Scale Armor also breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.
Although he couldn't figure out what was going on, Qingye and Jiang Xuan were both alive, so he would not fail to complete his mission when he returned.
The big crocodile named Xiaoqing was obviously frightened. After escaping from the giant frog's mouth, it ran away quickly.
After running a short distance, he felt something was wrong, so he turned back and ran to Qingye and Jiang Xuan, motioning them to get on his back.
Jiang Xuan asked Qingye to go up, but he didn't go up himself.
"Go to a safe place first. I have things to do."
Qingye also knew that with the divine vine there, Jiang Xuan would not be in danger, so he nodded and rode the big crocodile towards where the crocodile tribe warriors were.
Jiang Xuan stood farther away from the giant frog to avoid being crushed by it when it rolled over.
“Boom!”
Tangyuan descended from the sky and landed next to Jiang Xuan, chirping excitedly to him, just like a child.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Jiang Xuan touched Tangyuan's feathers and then climbed onto its back, so that he could run away if he encountered danger, which would be safer.
“Quack…”
The giant frog was still croaking, but the sound was very weak because there was a vine growing in its mouth, making it difficult to make any sound.
The giant frog's eyes changed from horror and anger to pleading and fear.
Faced with the extremely powerful divine vine, it was really scared.
At this time, the divine vine became more and more dazzling because it extracted a lot of the giant frog's blood, flesh and divine power.
If it is allowed to continue beating like this, I'm afraid the giant frog will be beaten into a giant frog.
"Teng Shen, stop smoking..."
Jiang Xuan did not speak directly, but called the divine vine through the method of communicating with the spirit lake.
As expected, Shen Teng stopped his actions temporarily, wanting to listen to what Jiang Xuan had to say.
"If I'm not mistaken, the power of this giant frog is equivalent to that of a small tribal totem god, right?"
Jiang Xuan has come into contact with totem gods of many small tribes, and he is quite familiar with the fluctuations of divine power of totem gods of small tribes.
"Yes, what do you want to say?"
Shen Teng's grand voice echoed in Jiang Xuan's mind.
Jiang Xuan pointed at the giant frog and said, "The Vine God is already a great god. Even if you suck it dry, it won't increase much divine power, but keeping it will be very useful."
"What's it for?"
Jiang Xuan took a deep breath and said seriously: "Be the guardian god of the Frog Tribe!"
"Be the patron saint of the frog tribe?"
Even a being like the Divine Vine, which had lived for countless years, was stunned after hearing this sentence, because it had never done such a thing before.
“That’s right!”
Jiang Xuan said affirmatively: "Judging from the situation in recent wars, the Frog Tribe is still relatively loyal to the Vine Tribe."
"But the Frog Tribe has lost its patron saint and is too weak. It is not very useful to the Vine Tribe."
"If we can give the Frog Tribe a patron saint, then the strength of the Frog Tribe will grow rapidly and will be able to play a greater role in the future!"
Shen Teng pondered for a moment and said, "Have you ever thought that the reason why the Frog Tribe is loyal to the Teng Tribe is because they can only rely on the protection of the Teng Tribe to survive now."
"Once the Frog Tribe becomes strong, will they still be willing to be a subordinate tribe of the Vine Tribe? What if they rebel in the future?"
Jiang Xuan smiled and said, "So, I want the Vine God to do something in the body or soul of this giant frog. It would be best if we can control this giant frog. This way, we don't have to worry about the frog tribe rebelling."
Shen Teng laughed in silence and said, "Sly boy, well, then it's as you wish!"
“Quack…”
On the river bank, the giant frog was still struggling, but its eyes were full of despair.
Swallowing Jiang Xuan was its biggest mistake, because it would swallow the Shen Teng as well.
At this moment, the roots of the divine vine have taken over its body, and even the blood vessels have been penetrated by the tiny roots.
The giant frog has already felt the fear of death. If it continues to be whipped by the divine vine like this, it will become a dried frog.
“Buzz…”
At this moment, the divine vine suddenly burst into endless green light, and quickly retracted its roots, and finally pulled them out of the giant frog's belly.
However, the divine vine was too powerful, and the terrifying fluctuations of its divine power still made the giant frog breathless.
The divine vine did not speak directly, but communicated with the giant frog using divine thoughts: "I left a seed in your body."
"What...what seeds..."
The giant frog was frightened and used its divine power to search continuously in its body, but it could not find the seeds that the divine vine mentioned.
"Don't bother trying. You can't find it, but I can make you feel its presence."
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, a place on the giant frog's head lit up with green light, even making its flesh and blood transparent.
The giant frog was frightened. Now, it clearly felt the existence of the seed. As long as the divine vine wanted, it could kill it at any time.
Shen Teng continued: "If you don't want the seeds to take root and sprout in your body, you'd better be obedient."
The giant frog nodded hastily: "I will obey you. I will definitely obey you."
Seeing that the giant frog dared not resist any more, Shen Teng used his divine thoughts to send a message to Jiang Xuan: "I have already controlled it. You can tell it the rest yourself."
"Thank you Fuji-gami."
Jiang Xuan expressed his sincere thanks, and then with the help of the divine vine, he communicated directly with the giant frog.
"Has the giant frog ever been the totem god of the tribe?"
"What?"
The giant frog was confused. It thought that this divine vine and Jiang Xuan would make various humiliating demands on it, but it had never thought of such a good thing as becoming the totem god of the tribe.
"Our Vine Tribe has a subordinate tribe called the Frog Tribe, which migrated from the Western Wasteland. Their totem god has long since fallen."
"If you are willing, come back with me and become the totem god of the frog tribe."
"There are five or six hundred people in the frog tribe, all kinds of frogs, and they will all believe in you and offer sacrifices to you in the future."
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Is there such a good thing?
The giant frog felt dizzy and even thought he was dreaming.
But the terrifying divine vine in front of it and the serious human being both told it clearly that this was not a dream.
"Can I really...really be the totem god of the Frog Tribe?"
The giant frog became a god by chance in the Black Water Swamp and had never left the Black Water Swamp, but it understood how many benefits it could gain by becoming a totem god.
"Of course you can. As long as you are loyal to the Vine Tribe, you can be the totem god of the Frog Tribe with peace of mind."
"Quack... I'm definitely loyal to the Ivy Tribe."
The giant frog was excited. For it, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and it must seize it.
"Okay, remember what you said today. If the Frog Tribe betrays the Vine Tribe under your leadership in the future, believe me, Vine God will make you die miserably!"
Jiang Xuan's words reminded the giant frog of the seed left in its body by the divine vine, and it shuddered suddenly.
The giant frog vowed: "The Frog Tribe will never betray the Vine Tribe!"
"Okay, you go back to the river first. I have to go somewhere else. When I return, you can come back with me."
"Quack... Then you have to come back soon..."
"Boom!"
After the giant frog finished speaking, it immediately jumped back into the river and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, the divine vine burst out with dazzling light, and even the figures of Jiang Xuan and Tang Yuan could no longer be seen clearly.
After the light disappeared, the divine vine had disappeared, leaving only Tangyuan and Jiang Xuan's figures on the ground.
The warriors of the Crocodile Tribe seemed to be watching a pantomime.
They only saw vines growing out of the giant frog's mouth, and then Jiang Xuan stood next to the vines. Later, the vines were pulled out of the giant frog's body, and not long after, the giant frog jumped into the water and disappeared.
As for what happened in the meantime, why the mysterious vine let the giant frog go, and what Jiang Xuan was doing standing there for so long, they had no idea.
After the dazzling divine light disappeared, they saw Jiang Xuan flying over riding the purple ferocious bird.
“Boom!”
The purple ferocious bird fell to the ground, Jiang Xuan jumped off Tangyuan's back and walked towards Linjia and the others.
Qingye went up to him and asked, "Chief Xuan, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, it's okay."
"That's good."
Qingye breathed a sigh of relief. Even she herself didn't notice that her attitude towards Jiang Xuan had undergone some subtle changes.
When Jiang Xuan approached, Lin Jia couldn't help but ask, "Chief Xuan, what was that divine vine just now?"
"He is the patron saint of our Teng tribe."
Scale Armor was surprised: "The guardian deity of your tribe has been following you?"
"I don't know either. Who dares to ask about God's affairs?"
Linjia nodded in agreement. In the minds of the tribesmen, the totem god was mysterious and powerful, and nothing he did was surprising.
Linjia didn't even ask where the divine vine had gone or why the giant frog was let go, which saved Jiang Xuan a lot of trouble.
Scale Armor said: "Now that everyone is safe, let's go hunt some more prey and then go back to join the leader."
"good!"
The hunting team of the Crocodile Tribe took action again, and this time, the hunting process went very smoothly.
Before dark, they returned to their starting point with a large amount of prey and reunited with all the crocodile tribe warriors.
Jiang Xuan discovered that when they reunited, many Crocodile Tribe warriors were injured, and several of them remained in the Black Water Marsh forever.
This is the danger of Black Water Marsh. If you want to gain something here, you must pay a price.
Of course, their gains were also great.
A large amount of various prey and herbs were harvested, and even some magical plant fruits with special effects were harvested.
The leader Ci Mu shouted, "Please count the number of people to see if everyone is here."
The leaders began to count the number of people, and except for those who were already dead, everyone was present.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's take our stuff and leave Black Water!"
“Clatter…”
Ci Mu rode the largest crocodile into the water first, and the other big crocodiles followed closely behind.
Tangyuan flew above the crocodiles just like before, always keeping an eye on Jiang Xuan's position and not daring to go far away.
The Black Water Marsh is extremely dangerous. Unless there are special circumstances, the Crocodile Tribe will never spend the night in the Black Water Marsh.
It is said that a hunting team from the crocodile tribe once stayed overnight in the Black Water Marsh due to an accident. When they were found the next day, only some scattered bones and weapons were left on the ground.
It was the various bloody lessons that taught the Crocodile Tribe how to gain the most with the least cost in the Black Water Swamp.
At this time, the sun had already set, and on the surface of the Black Water Lake, the orange-red glow was scattered with the ripples of the water, just like glowing rose petals fallen to the ground, forming a beautiful picture.
In the wetland forest behind, as the light dimmed, all kinds of ferocious birds and beasts began to appear.
"roar!"
A strange beast roar sounded, like the sound of a drum, startling a large number of flying birds.
"Cry..."
A huge black ferocious bird glided by from a distance, like a dark cloud, casting a large shadow.
“Clatter…”
Under the water, a huge fish of who knows how many meters long was swimming by. Only a huge black shadow could be vaguely seen through the water surface. As it swam, the swaying of its tail created layers of waves on the water surface.
Jiang Xuan sat on the crocodile's back, watching the big guys appear from time to time. He felt that all the pores on his body were closed, his muscles were in a tense state, and his five senses became extremely sharp.
He knew that this was because the surrounding environment was too dangerous and his body automatically entered a state of alert.
The Black Water Marsh is so mysterious that the area where the Crocodile Tribe can move safely is just a corner of the Black Water Marsh. As for how many dangers and opportunities there are in the deeper areas, no one knows.
Jiang Xuan sighed: "This place is so mysterious. If I have the chance in the future, I hope to come here more often."
Qingye keenly perceived the meaning of Jiang Xuan's words.
