Chapter 1025 Pilgrimage
Necromancers liked areas controlled by Beastmen the most . In those areas, they could secretly dig up a large amount of skeletons in the Beastmen’ cemeteries, these skeletons were good Undead materials .

But unfortunately, these skeletons’ souls had already returned to the embrace of the earth . Even the most powerful Necromancers could only turn the dead Beastmen’s corpses into the most ordinary Skeleton Warriors .
Even the skeletons of Beastmen powerhouses could only turn into Skeleton Warriors, they were just a bit more powerful .
And these most common Skeleton Warriors were the most common cannon fodder used for the sea of Undeads tactics .
Moreover, Necromancers wouldn’t dare to tamper with the corpses of the Beastmen who turned into Ancestral Souls, turning one into an Undead would be the same as creating a tracking device giving out their location, they could only wait for the Beastmen to chase them then .
And thus, even if a big military campaign happened, the Beastmen never had to worry about being turned into Undeads and cause some disasters, no matter how many of them died .
Seeing these Undead Beastmen for the first time startled all the Beastmen and they didn’t react when they saw the Undeads charging .
The Great Tribal Chief had a very complicated expression . He felt sorrowful, but was also gratified . Seeing those Undeads surrounding them, the Great Tribal Chief took out the newborn Inheritance Totem of the Blood Fang Tribe .
The totem, covered with the names of the ancestors, seemed attracted by something as it appeared, it then blossomed with a gentle light and the mumbles of countless souls echoed .
The totem’s runes seemed to come alive as they kept squirming . It looked as if there was a large amount of runes moving towards the surface .
“Brave Beastmen, I, Krom Bloodfang, welcome your souls . May your contributions be engraved in the memories of all Beastmen . May your souls rest in peace . ”
The Great Tribal Chief held the Inheritance Totem and loudly shouted .
Then, the Great Tribal Chief started chanting ancient ballads with a rough and wild tone . This was a song used to commemorate the tribe’s heroes after a war .
Unyielding, determined to fight, determined to protect .
The group of Beastman Wolf Riders took out their own scimitars and cut open their cheek . They let the blood flow and followed the Great Tribal Chief in chanting ancient ballads .

Many of the people on the human side were ready to fight . Dylas was holding the cracked Dark Night Cloak, on guard against everything .
Lin Yun silently looked at everything, and sighed as he saw the Beastmen’s red eyes .
Hot-blooded and with a will as firm and steady as the earth . They would never withdraw, blood and scars are their medals . Only the most powerful warriors could obtain the respect and reverence of their clansmen . Cowards were spurned by all Beastmen .
In the most ancient times, there was a legendary Beastman who swung a dilapidated totem and his roar had been engraved in all Beastmen’s souls .
‘Beastmen never surrender!’
Unfortunately, only these most ancient Beastmen could remain so pure and wouldn’t hesitate to sacrifice their lives for the sake of their tribe or beliefs .
Now, there were even some Beastmen known for being crafty in Noscent .
Lin Yun shook his head and looked at the Undeads . The fastest Undeads were already four to five hundred meters away .
Suddenly, the Skeleton Warriors at the forefront fell to the ground while letting out silent roars . Their Soul Fires came out of their eye sockets and flew towards the Inheritance Totem in the Great Tribal Chief’s hands like fireflies .
The soulless Undead Beastmen seemed to have suffered countless years of erosion and turned into piles of ashes . Those ashes fell to the ground and rapidly disappeared inside the earth .
The Soul Fires of any Undead within a kilometer of the Great Tribal Chief flew out of their bodies and entered the Inheritance Totem .
A name would lit up on the Inheritance Totem every time a soul flew into it . After shining, the name would roll along the totem’s light and enter the inside of the totem, while more and more names came out from the inside to the surface .
It seemed as if these names were welcoming their owner . A faint mumble could be heard every time a name shone .
More and more Undeads appeared as the group started slowly moving forward, their levels were also higher and higher .

No one on the human side said anything, that scene was too shocking . At this time, even those who looked down upon Beastmen the most couldn’t muster the courage to vilify them .
“Merlin, aren’t those Undead Beastmen not supposed to appear before Beastmen? What’s happening now?” Enderfa asked Lin Yun .
Lin Yun shook his head and said, “They are heroes, not Undeads . ”
After saying that, Lin Yun continued to watch the Undeads pouncing towards them .
These Beastmen’s souls had been suppressing the Greater Raging Flame Overlord while their corpses had turned Undead . But it was impossible to thoroughly cut the connection between soul and body .
These Undeads would never disappear as long as the souls suppressing the Greater Raging Flame Overlord hadn’t died out . Even if they were killed and their corpses burnt to ashes, they would still come back from the grave and crawl on the earth once again .
Even if they had the determination to never succumb, these Undeads were supported by endless Death Aura as well as the Beastmen’s souls .
While their souls were still suppressing the Greater Raging Flame Overlord, these Undeads remembered some of their memories, the higher level ones especially so . They wouldn’t approach the tribe and were unwilling to let a Beastman see them .
These Undead Beastmen were definitely unwilling to let the living Beastmen know about them . But the convergence of their souls formed a new Inheritance Totem and made them lose control over their undead bodies, only leaving pure instincts behind .
They would attack all living creatures, just like normal Undeads .
Within the legends, the emergence of Undeads was due to their hatred towards the living, that’s why they instinctively attacked any living creature, this was an instinct, just like how a person instinctively needed to breathe .
Lin Yun already knew that the Undeads would appear, and this was an opportunity to make the souls of those ancient heroes rest in peace .
The team was advancing very slowly . It was unknown how many Undead Beastmen withered away, their bodies returned to the earth, while their souls merged with the Inheritance Totem .
Slowly, fewer and fewer level 20 Beastmen appeared, those that were rushing over were at least level 25 .

After two hours, all Undeads under level 30 had disappeared…
Lin Yun also saw several “acquaintances” . A few of the highest level Undeads had been revived . In the back, the Dark Ancestor Soul, Ghost Behemoth, and Death Shaman had appeared .
The dark aura of the Dark Ancestor Soul slowly dissipated, and so did the death aura . Ultimately, its body turned light blue and transformed into a blue river that rushed into the Inheritance Totem .
As for that Ghost Behemoth, it roared towards the sky . It seemed to be somewhat cheering, its huge body jumped just like a big dog pouncing towards its master .
Its translucent body slowly dissipated and also transformed into a long light river merging with the Inheritance Totem .
Ultimately, all Undead Beastmen dissipated, only leaving the Heaven Rank Shaman behind .
The Soul Fire in the eyes of the Death Shaman was slowly flickering . His Soul Fire wasn’t chaotic like the other Undead Beastmen, it was like an ordinary Undead .
His Soul Fire was very calm and it looked like it was still possessing wisdom . He looked at the Inheritance Totem in the hands of the Great Tribal Chief and landed on the ground before slowly walking over .
The closer he was, the thicker the light of wisdom could be seen in its eyes . His soul still didn’t float out when it was three hundred meters away from the Inheritance Totem .
On the side, Dedale frowned, took out his metal staff and summoned some orange flames . The others also took out their own weapons and got ready to fight .
Lin Yun suddenly appeared beside Dedale and reached out to stop him before shaking his head .
“It’s alright, he is in the middle of a pilgrimage . ”
A hundred meters away, the light of wisdom within the eyes of the Death Shaman was already similar to an old sage’s .
He slowly knelt and worshipped the Inheritance Totem like an ordinary Beastman on a pilgrimage .
The Great Tribal Chief silently walked over and put the Inheritance Totem in front of the Death Shaman . And then, the Beastman army stood on both sides, as if welcoming a hero back .
The Death Shaman slowly moved towards the Inheritance Totem . At ten meters from the totem, he raised both hands and took off his head before silently placing it in front of the Inheritance Totem .
In an instant, his Soul Fire entered the Inheritance Totem and disappeared within . His body also dissipated into ashes, but his skull didn’t . Rather, as if attracted by the Inheritance Totem, it flew to the peak of the totem and seemed to merge with it .
A big name flashed on top of the Inheritance Totem, Leksa!
The other names hovered around that name as the Inheritance Totem suddenly blossomed with boundless light and a halo spread to the surroundings .
The deathly ashen black earth recovered and grass and vegetation started growing out . All the Death Aura dissipated as if everything had been a hallucination .
The Great Tribal Chief led the Wolf Riders to the front of the Inheritance Totem to respectfully kowtow, before collecting the Inheritance Totem .
Lin Yun looked at the skull atop the Inheritance Totem with a respectful gaze .
This was a true hero, everything he had done had been for the sake of the tribe . Even non-Beastmen would respect him, and it had nothing to do with strength, it was due to his actions .
