21: Transform into a dragon
The 'old tribe' he spoke of naturally referred to the former Si Huo Tribe.
"Summon them."
A thought flashed through Qin Jin's mind, and he issued the command.
"Yes."
Xia Yanh Tiger left as swiftly as he came, striding away.
Beside him, Qi Chuan approached.
Compared to when they first met, the old man's complexion had improved considerably.
The new tribe was gradually stabilizing, and practicing the Breathing Method had even improved his declining blood and qi. Now, the old age on him had diminished, and he had some vitality.
"Lord Sacrificial Spirit."
Under Qin Jin's arrangement, he was considered the current chieftain of the Si Huo Tribe. After bowing, he said, "Lord Sacrificial Spirit, you haven't been in the tribe these past few days, so we've prepared a resting place for you."
"Although it's a bit simple, we don't have enough people or time right now, but we will gradually improve it."
"What do you think...?"
Deep Driller slightly lowered its body and looked at him.
Qin Jin's voice sounded in his mind.
"Lead the way."
With that command, Qi Chuan led the way into the village.
Along the way, the members of the Si Huo Tribe cast their gazes, their eyes filled with reverence.
There were new faces who had never seen Deep Driller before; upon seeing it and learning its identity, new power of vows surged forth.
Sacrificial Spirit and human tribes are closely connected. These new tribesmen who joined the Si Huo Tribe, through the continuous promotion and influence of Qi Chuan and others, and by participating in joint worship, would also generate power of vows.

And now, upon seeing Qin Jin, the Sacrificial Spirit, with their own eyes, their faith had a foundation, and the power of vows generated increased.
"The power of vows has many uses."
"Once the Si Huo Tribe develops to a certain extent, it can also use the power of vows to manifest divine miracles and gather faith."
A thought flashed, and Qin Jin began to ponder more deeply.
"Through the professional panel, the power of vows is quantified and under my control."
"So, what about the native Sacrificial Spirit in the Great Wilderness?"
"What concept does the power of vows hold for them?"
Qin Jin stored this question in his mind.
With the help of the professional panel, he embarked on a path in the Great Wilderness that completely exceeded his expectations.
Now... there were still many questions to explore and clarify.
Deep Driller stopped in front of the tallest and most unique building in the village, and Qin Jin's gaze looked forward.
The first thing that caught his eye was an extremely wide entrance.
This resting place for the Sacrificial Spirit in front of him was built with trees, covered with large branches and leaves on top. From a distance, it looked like a giant shed, wide inside, like an empty hall.
Sacrificial Spirit Hall.
Qi Chuan was right; it was indeed very simple.
However, even with physical qualities far exceeding ordinary people, building a structure capable of accommodating Deep Driller in such a short time would undoubtedly require immense effort.
"You've put in a lot of effort."
Qin Jin's voice resonated in Qi Chuan's mind.
"You're too kind."
A smile appeared on Qi Chuan's face: "Lord Sacrificial Spirit, please enter."
Deep Driller stepped forward and walked into this "Sacrificial Spirit Hall."
Upon entering, Qin Jin's gaze immediately fell on one particular spot.
Deep inside the hall, using giant logs as a base and thick, python-like vines as decoration, a giant chair had been woven.
Inside the mining machine's cockpit, Qin Jin blinked.
"The Si Huo Tribe members are quite creative."
Beside him, after entering the hall, Qi Chuan walked to one side, grabbed a beast hide package from there, and brought it to the front of Deep Driller.
He placed the package on the ground and, upon unfolding it, various colored crystal cores were revealed.
Crystal cores of extraordinary creatures.
At a glance, there were three in total, varying in size and color.
"Lord Sacrificial Spirit."
Qi Chuan's aged voice sounded: "These include those offered by the tribesmen who joined the tribe during this period, and also spoils from the hunting team."
"The former Stone Saint loved these very much. I hope you, Lord Sacrificial Spirit, will also like them."
In the Great Wilderness, not all creatures contained crystal cores; for example, the Twin-Horned Giant Rhinoceros they had surrounded and killed last time did not possess any crystal cores.
Qi Chuan had clearly made many preparations during the days he waited for the Sacrificial Spirit to return.
After offering the crystal cores, he rummaged in his embrace and took out a rolled-up beast hide.
He unrolled the beast hide, on which simple lines were drawn, with some areas specifically marked.
This was a simple map of the area near the Si Huo Tribe.
The time was short, and the map's scope was limited, but it was already evident that the Si Huo Tribe was seriously executing Qin Jin's commands without any slack.
"Qi Chuan, you've done well."
Qin Jin took a few steps forward, and Deep Driller moved accordingly, turning its body. The nearly ten-meter-tall Deep Driller directly sat on the giant chair.
It extended its right arm, hovering above Qi Chuan. The power of vows was consumed, and wisps of golden light descended, merging into Qi Chuan's physique.
Rewards must be given for merit.
He was already deeply bound to the Si Huo Tribe and would not be stingy in this regard.
As the golden light merged, Qi Chuan felt a warm sensation spreading throughout his body.
He quickly prostrated himself in a respectful bow: "Thank you, Lord Sacrificial Spirit."
"Rise."
Qi Chuan rose.
Just then, a hearty voice sounded from outside the Sacrificial Spirit Hall.
"Lord Sacrificial Spirit."
Xia Yanh Tiger led the way, followed by four new faces.
Qin Jin's gaze swept over them: three men and one woman. Their expressions at the moment were somewhat anxious. After bowing, they lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
Qin Jin was not surprised.
As early as his first encounter with Qi Chuan, Qin Jin had already learned about the former Si Huo Tribe.
It was a large tribe of tens of thousands of people. Although the Sacrificial Spirit Stone Saint was gentle, its status was immensely revered. The most ordinary tribesmen usually didn't even have the opportunity to visit it.
Individuals like Qi Chuan and Xia Yanh Tiger already held a certain status in the former Si Huo Tribe, incomparable to ordinary tribesmen.
"They were the ones who saw that great battle from afar."
Xia Yanh Tiger explained: "According to them, those were two giant beasts that blotted out the sky!"
Qin Jin's gaze narrowed slightly.
He looked at the four people, and his voice echoed in their minds.
"Now, recall the scene you once witnessed."
A voice suddenly rang out in their minds, startling the four, their expressions flustered.
"Don't panic."
Beside them, Qi Chuan frowned slightly, realizing what they were experiencing: "That is the Lord Sacrificial Spirit communicating with you. Obey his command."
Under Qi Chuan's reassurance, the four gradually calmed down and began to recall the scene in their minds.
Through the spiritual connection, and with the consumption of the power of vows, the image was projected into Qin Jin's mind. He felt as if he were deeply immersed in the scene, witnessing what these few people had seen.
From afar, two giant beasts, over a hundred zhang tall, were clashing in the wilderness.
Their massive forms, hundreds of meters tall, indeed appeared to blot out the sky in the eyes of these ordinary tribesmen.
The moment the image appeared, Qin Jin's attention immediately focused on one of the giant beasts.
It had flowing hair, horns, a horse's body, and a human face...
That was none other than the Horse-bodied Human-faced God Qin Jin had personally seen before!
He had not expected that one of the main combatants would be this mountain god recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Shifting his gaze, Qin Jin looked at the other giant beast.
It was a Three-Headed Strange Python!
Its body was hundreds of meters long, its scales were ice-white, and it had three snake heads, exceedingly chilling. At the lower end of its python body, there were even several strangely shaped claws growing out.
At the top of the central snake head, there were two protrusions, as if horns were about to grow.
Claws on its body, horns on its head.
This indicated that it showed signs of transforming into a Flood Dragon!
