After the first magic crystal was crushed, a huge amount of energy entered Tian Ye's body, and the originally dim inner core was filled again and emitted a halo. Perhaps he became more skilled after absorbing more, or perhaps his body's ability to withstand it was stronger. This first-level magic core was completely absorbed within an hour, and he continued to crush the second one without stopping. The large amount of energy moisturized the originally slightly glowing inner core and made it brighter, as if it was the calm before a volcano erupted. However, after the second magic core was absorbed, there was still no sign of a breakthrough.

"Alas, it seems that I need a strong medicine. It may be difficult to break through to the second level if I absorb five primary magic cores one by one." He did not expect that he had already absorbed five primary magic cores, but he had not yet broken through to the second level. This time, he was ready to crush the remaining two magic crystals in his hand together. He thought of crushing two magic crystals directly. The huge energy suddenly broke into Tian Ye's body, but Tian Ye, who had experience, did not let this energy cause any resistance. The energy followed his thoughts and hit the inner elixir again. The inner elixir became brighter and brighter. Finally, after absorbing two magic cores, the inner elixir could not bear the burst of energy and broke the silence in Tian Ye's dantian with a bang. The inner elixir, which was the size of a millet grain, expanded several times and became the size of a soybean grain. Pure energy emanated from the inner elixir, filling Tian Ye's entire body. Tian Ye, who was originally 100 meters tall, had quietly grown about centimeters again, reaching a height of two meters. Compared with the giant bear's breakthrough, it was like a small house meeting a big house. The giant bear's body broke through and grew several times, while humans only grew a few centimeters. There was nothing strange about this. It only showed that the beast race's talents and talents used the main energy for the expansion of the body during the evolution process, which would also allow the huge body to obtain more energy from heaven and earth. What surprised Tian Ye even more was that Tian Ye, who was not particularly strong, had strengthened his muscles this time. If Tian Ye could only knock down five humans with his bare hands before, now Tian Ye would not be at a disadvantage even if he faced humans with brute force. The same as last time, after this breakthrough, a layer of black mucus attached to his body. The unusual smell of this mucus stimulated Zhu Lao Ba, who originally had a relatively sensitive sense of smell.

"Where are the people? Hurry up and prepare a bath for me." Zhu Laoba really couldn't stand the smell. Seeing a bucket full of water next to him, Tianye washed all the dirt on his face without thinking twice. This finally stopped Tianye's urge to vomit.

"I need to learn some cleaning magic. This is not a good way to go on. I seem to remember there is a cleaning spell in the magic encyclopedia." Tian Ye couldn't stand the stench on his body and recalled the cleaning magic. Just as he was about to take out the magic encyclopedia, the guards outside came in with a few buckets of hot water and poured them into the bathtub in the tent. Tian Ye also had the habit of taking a bath, so there was also a bathtub in the room.

Tiedan also walked up to Tianye and said, "My Lord, the water is ready. You can take a bath." The water was already ready, so Tianye didn't plan to learn cleaning magic first, so he should wash off the stains on his body first. Tianye took off his clothes in a few seconds and jumped into the bathtub. A warm feeling filled Tianye's heart. But Tiedan didn't leave.

"Tiedan, is there anything else I can help you with?" From Tiedan's look, Tian Ye knew that he must have something to do.

"Well, I actually wanted to report this yesterday, but without your order, I didn't dare to come in."

"Actually, I was not here yesterday, so it's useless for you to come in." Tian Ye had nothing to hide, so he said directly that he had left the camp yesterday.

"So that's how it is. By the way, what I wanted to say is that all the things have been sorted out and placed in the cave in the back mountain. I also ordered people to divide the cave into two parts. Food is stored in the outer part, while the more precious gold and silver coins, as well as some jewels and treasures are stored in the inner layer," Tiedan has been reporting to Tianye diligently.

"Just take care of this matter. I trust you completely."

"There is one more thing. Your eldest brother came yesterday and said that our clan leader has broken through to the third level and is even more powerful, so he asked us to be careful."

"Really? The old patriarch's cultivation power is still very strong. He actually broke through the third level." Hearing this, Tian Ye was shocked, and then he felt a little warmer. His elder brother was still on his side. At this critical moment, he actually ran out secretly to tell him about this. A sense of relief poured into his body. He rubbed his body vigorously in the water for a few times to wash off all the stains on his body. Tian Ye didn't want to soak in the water anymore. The black water was simply unbearable to look at. He got out of the bathtub, dried his body with a towel, put on his clothes, and sat in his seat.

"There's no need to worry too much. The clan leader doesn't give us a good impression, but relatively speaking, he hasn't shown any hostility towards us, so we don't need to take this matter too seriously. If he doesn't come to cause trouble, I think the team leader and I can live in peace." Tian Ye said what was in his heart. Although the clan leader deliberately made things difficult for him, it was the clan leader who gave him the title of priest. Although the position of priest seems dispensable now, it still helped him a lot when he was just reborn.

"The priest is right. We have nothing to do with each other now. With our current strength, we don't have to be afraid. There is one more thing. Yesterday, the spies came back to report that the jackals' team gathered in the Tauren tribe has increased to 1000 people, but they haven't set out yet, but are still waiting in place."

"Are they still waiting for the remaining reinforcements? This tribe of gnolls has really invested a lot of money. It seems that they don't want to let me go and want to kill me!"

"The ogre captain Rig has personally gone out to monitor the situation, and has sent out as many as 30 ogres to gather information everywhere, trying to see what these gnolls are doing and what they are waiting for."

"I think they definitely want to wipe out our tribe in one fell swoop, but haha, it's not so easy to annihilate us. You don't have to worry too much. Just do what you should do. On the day the gnolls arrive, I think I will give them a surprise." Tian Ye smiled sinisterly. Although he might not be able to match the warrior strength of these gnoll masters, it was not so easy for them to kill him.

"Well, there's nothing to do. I'll go get busy first." After seeing Tian Ye's gesture, Tiedan turned around and walked out of the tent.

After Tiedan left, Tian Ye's face gradually darkened. He learned from his eldest brother's notification that he now had another enemy, the old patriarch. Although he was not sure when he would come to trouble him, he was sure to come. The reason was that he was a time bomb and could challenge his position as patriarch at any time. There was also a big trouble in front of him, the jackal man, who was eyeing him covetously. No one was sure what the jackal man wanted to do. He actually assembled 1000 warriors and did not attack his tribe. So what was he going to do?

The Longwei Empire's Liangjie Town is located not far from the Baitou River, but it is still dozens of meters away from the river. This town was originally a small village, but it is located on the shortest route from Shengguang City to the Orc Empire, and slowly formed a gathering place. The Lord of Shengguang Ridge gave this town a name, which means Liangjie Town. This town represents the entry into the Longwei Empire. This place suddenly became lively a while ago, and a large number of imperial cavalry rushed here, but the residents of the town did not panic. The mayor had received the order of the lord, who wanted to gather cavalry here to fight against the orcs and plunder the border population.

There weren't many people in the tavern during the day, but since the arrival of this group of cavalry, the tavern has been packed during the day, crowded and messy. The noisy voices in the tavern and the sound of drunk people unconsciously slapping the table are endless. The cavalry are people who live on the edge of a knife and never pay attention to details, so they usually don't care about other people's feelings when drinking in the tavern. The voices are getting louder and louder.

"Tell you guys quickly, I killed two jackals with my bare hands that day. Do you know that jackals are taller than us humans? Their ferocious mouths and sharp fangs are creepy." A soldier seemed to be telling his heroic deeds, and the four people next to him listened with gusto. The one who told the story of killing the werewolf was one of the werewolf sniper team in the Holy Light Village.

"Hey, brother, those jackals are so powerful, and you can defeat two of them with your bare hands."

After the not-too-tall man in front of him narrated the story of his fight with the jackals, one of the people on the opposite side asked in disbelief. In his understanding, humans almost always defeated orcs with the majority, and orcs could often fight one against two or more.

"I dare not say anything else. We have indeed seen jackals who are a little taller than us, but I cannot praise their combat effectiveness. I chopped his head with a knife, and it was cut in half. They don't have the leather armor we have. Most of them only have a few simple armors to protect important parts, not full body leather armor." After saying that, he seemed to be a little thirsty, picked up the wine glass on the table again, and drank the wine in the glass. After that, he wiped his mouth and laughed, "Well, plus we have the bonus of mounts? That group of jackals. But no, our two-headed magic horses are not given for nothing. The huge impact is really exciting." The soldier who was talking while recalling the battlefield looked up at the ceiling and said thoughtfully.

"Now that you mention it, this gnoll isn't that powerful. I wonder what the lord means by summoning us to gather in Liangjie Town this time. Your team should be rewarded. Do you have any inside information?" The man who asked the question was about to make a sarcastic remark about this soldier who was obviously bragging, but he changed the subject on second thought. This was what he really cared about.

"I don't know about that, but the messenger said that our team leader will be awarded in Liangjie Town. I don't know what the award is, but maybe he will be promoted to a higher level, from team leader to squadron leader, and maybe he will be rewarded with some gold coins." Although he drank a lot of wine, he knew some gossip, but he didn't dare to say it because he was not drunk.

"Oh, I know this. One of my relatives was doing work at the lord's house, and we met by chance that day. He also came to Liangjie Town with the lord. According to him, this time the lord might want to take action against the jackals. We have to cross the Baitou River and wipe out all the jackals who are plundering our population." Another person who had been listening couldn't help but tell the gossip he had received.

"So, doesn't this mean that there is still going to be a war? My God, it's only been peaceful for a few days, why is there going to be a war again?" Another person at the same table seemed to be very resistant to war and expressed his own opinion.

"Kid, what are you afraid of? If we don't fight, how can we get military merit? If we don't fight, where can we get the opportunity to be promoted? Look, our team leader has been a team leader for nearly six years, and he is still a team leader. But this time, I feel that after killing this pair of lizardmen, he may be promoted. If there is another big battle, maybe I will be promoted to captain." The soldier who fought with the werewolves obviously did not take the werewolves seriously.

“How high is the intensity of the battle you are talking about? A squad of dozens of people fighting against dozens of people. If there is a real war, there will be thousands or tens of thousands of people. It is not certain whether soldiers like us with no rank can survive to the end. Most of us will be cannon fodder. You still want to get promoted? You are dreaming.” This soldier looked like a negative person.

The soldier opposite stood up suddenly, slammed the table and roared, "Why don't you go home and grow potatoes? Why do you want to be a soldier? You coward, get out. We don't welcome you at our table." No soldier has a good temper, and they have no worries after seeing life and death. He was afraid of the soldier in front of him when he heard about war. He lost his good impression of him and wanted to drive this guy out at the first opportunity.

"Brother Zhao, why are you so anxious? He is just complaining. Can you guarantee that all the soldiers have the same idea as you? You can't guarantee it, right? Everyone has the right to express their demands. This is the right granted to our soldiers by the empire." The soldier was defending his companion, but the big man opposite didn't care. He threw a punch directly at the face of the soldier who was defending him.

"You two cowards are not worthy of being soldiers, get out, or I'll beat you to death." The soldier who killed the gnolls was really anxious, he had seen this group of gnolls slaughtering the people of the empire, the miserable plight of the people of the empire was simply unbearable to watch, so he strongly supported the lord in taking military action against the gnolls to kill those hateful gnolls and avenge the people of the empire and his dead comrades.
