Houtu indeed deserves the title of a Tier Twelve Divine Being; even after being severely injured, he still heavily injured Lou.

After Lou fled, Houtu didn't pursue but flickered into Zhang Chen's presence, manifesting as a figure. His eyes looked at Zhang Chen: "Lou is severely injured by me, but he knows I won't survive either. In three to five days, he will return to devour me..."

As he spoke here, Houtu wanted to continue speaking, but his figure suddenly shattered, leaving only a pearl floating in the air.

At this moment, the divine light of the pearl retracted, and the divine power that once enveloped the entire tribe dissipated, the divinity within the pearl completely disappeared.

"The god is dead! The god is dead!"

Clan Leader Thunder witnessed this scene, and couldn't help but cry out in sorrow, his body softened as he knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with panic.

"The god is dead, what will become of the tribe? Without the god's protection, how can the tribe continue to survive in the crisis-ridden Great Wilderness?" Thunder's voice was filled with grief, even the joy of defeating the Ant Tribe earlier vanished without a trace.

At this time, members of the Ape Tribe, upon hearing the news, all rushed over. Each one looked at the dimmed 'Houtu', faces were horrified as they ran over from afar, kneeling in terror.

"What is the future for the Ape Tribe? Without the goddess's protection, how will the Ape Tribe resist the great horror in the night?"

At this time, the hearts of the Ape Tribe members were filled with despair. The Ant Tribe still had gods living, and they would certainly not spare them. If before this slaughter, they could have chosen to defect to the Ape Tribe, but after this slaughter, a deadly feud had been formed, and the Ant Tribe would definitely take the opportunity to attack.

Moreover, if the god Lou comes to retaliate in three days, who can resist?

As for defecting to other tribes? If caught by other tribes, they would probably only end up as slaves.

The tribe was in despair, countless men, women, and children knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with horror.

"Brother Zhang, what should we do now? You are a man of great abilities, you must find a way to save everyone." The young 'Di' walked from the crowd, his eyes looking towards Zhang Chen, full of pleading.

Zhang Chen glanced at everyone, slowly stepped forward to 'Houtu', picked up the Little Round Ball in his hand, and indeed, the appearance of this Little Round Ball was exactly the same as the one he had obtained in the past.

"Stop crying, now I have a way that might help the Ape Tribe survive the crisis." Zhang Chen said, stroking the Little Round Ball, sweeping over everyone's mournful faces.

"You have a way?" Thunder, knowing Zhang Chen's abilities, asked.

Upon hearing Zhang Chen's words, everyone had a look of joy, filled with surprise and disbelief.

Zhang Chen nodded, addressing the young 'Di' and Thunder: "You two, come with me."

As he spoke, Zhang Chen walked into the temple.

The two followed closely behind Zhang Chen into the temple, and saw Zhang Chen holding the pearl, standing under the altar, seemingly pondering something.

"Brother, do you have any way to help my tribe resolve the crisis?" The young 'Di' couldn't help but inquire, his voice full of expectation.

"The Divine Spirit Houtu was worshipped and born from the Power of Faith. Although Houtu is dead, his body still possesses endless divine power. If you can develop this divine power, wouldn't it be equivalent to the resurrection of Houtu the Divine Spirit? At that time, whether to sweep the Ant Tribe or to slay the god Lou, it would be as easy as turning the hand over." Zhang Chen said.

"How to evoke the divine power, please enlighten me." Thunder said respectfully.

"Integrate this pearl into your bodies, replace the spirituality of the Divine Spirit with your own souls to dominate the power of this pearl. In this way, you are the god, and the god is your ability." Zhang Chen said with burning eyes.

"Isn't that blasphemous? Even if it can succeed or not, if we fail, won't we die under the wrath of the Divine Spirit? It's impossible at this moment, absolutely not." Thunder's body trembled in shock, looking at the pearl in Zhang Chen's hand, he dared not desecrate the Divine Spirit—a fear of the Divine Spirit deeply ingrained in his bones, not daring to defy in the slightest.

"Either you become gods, and the tribe crisis is naturally resolved, or wait for Lou to flatten you, disappearing entirely in Heaven and Earth. You choose for yourselves!" Zhang Chen calmly narrated.

"No, that is the lofty Divine Spirit, how can we mere mortals blaspheme the Divine Spirit? We will be punished! We will be cursed by the gods." Thunder's voice was full of fear.

Unexpectedly, the young 'Di' looked at Zhang Chen with a resolute expression, his voice full of determination: "Brother Zhang, can human flesh truly become a god? Can we truly grasp the power of the gods?"

"Of course, am I not a mortal holding the Mysterious Power?" Zhang Chen answered affirmatively.

"Please teach me the Secret Technique to master the Divine Power, I am willing to try." The young 'Di' knelt down before Zhang Chen, bowing.

"No! Profaning the Divine Spirit will not have a good outcome." Thunder hurried to stop him.

"For the tribe!" The young 'Di' replied firmly, looking unwaveringly at Thunder: "If it succeeds, our Ape Tribe will start a new chapter, and we could even hunt Lou and seize his power. If we fail, I alone will bear all the consequences."
