Chapter 520: The Four Great Tribes
Qing State, Lin Tribe
Lin Guorong named his tribe Lin Tribe, meaning to rebuild the Lin family.
Lin Tribe has over forty-six Lin family cultivators, led by Lin Guorong. This is the headquarters of Lin Tribe, with some people guarding outside and others out conquering and merging with other small tribes.
Of course, there are more people in the Lin family who have awakened and left to start their own families, even going to Bing State or Zhong State. These over forty people are united by Lin Guorong.
According to the Lin family members, there are four major tribes in Qing State formed by the four powerful families. These families are far apart and currently not in conflict, instead working together to conquer primitive tribes.
"Sixth Patriarch, they seem to be enjoying the present a lot, not blaming Lin Guorong at all."
Lin Hongjin told Lin Jiang that he had spoken with a few descendants of the Lin family, and they didn’t seem to hold a grudge against Lin Guorong.
"That’s because their original cultivation was low, with little lifespan left, and they feel the spiritual energy is gone. They can act arrogantly here, a bunch of narrow-minded fools."
Lin Jiang knew what these people were thinking. They were living a good life here. Lin Guorong gave them land and people, all the primitive tribe’s people were their slaves, they had many wives and enjoyed a superior status. Combined with Lin Guorong’s ideas making some sense, they were naturally happy.
"Sixth Patriarch, what should we do now?"
"Have them inform the tribes of the other three families to come to the Lin Tribe to see me."
"If this news gets out, the Sixth Patriarch, people might run away."
"Let them run, don’t worry about that. The important thing is not to force awaken others anymore."
Lin Jiang said. That’s the key point. These people who were awakened find it hard to stay asleep again, because the sleeping conditions Lin Jiang provided for them are not as good as his and Cao Ying’s. They are not on the same level.
Also, their continued sleep doesn’t hold much meaning anymore, considering their limited lifespan. Lin Jiang has to protect those undergoing Soul Changing, and even those aiming for Void Achieving – they have a longer life span and more hopes.
"Yes, Sixth Patriarch, I’ll make arrangements, but it will take time, maybe half a month or a month."
"I understand. No rush, I will first visit the sleeping grounds."
Lin Jiang also knew another piece of information – individuals from all four families are on the other side of the sleeping grounds, attempting to awaken more people.
They aren’t completely desperate to awaken those aiming for Void Achieving. Most are searching for the golden core and Nascent Soul. Of course, there’s also the possibility that they fear being defeated by the awakened Void Achieving. Lin Jiang is aware of this information and must go stop them.

Northwest of the Qing State
Long ago, the Green Emperor exploded the Green Emperor Tomb, destroying the hiding places of the four major families into many pieces. This created numerous space fragments of different sizes and distances.
Some have been found by Zhou Huaiying, but more are still hidden. Lin Jiang cleared out more than ten space fragments to place the sleeping cultivators there, thus avoiding the apocalyptic environment of thirty thousand years.
The space fragments were scattered irregularly with large distances between them. In the center of these fragments, there was a small tribe with only about two thousand people. Among them, twenty cultivators were awake, while the rest were their slaves, responsible for taking care of them.
These twenty people were in charge of guiding the awakening cultivators here.
One day, they found another cultivator who had awoken on his own, a member of the Four Sages Sect from before. Due to Lin Ying’s plea, Lin Jiang had granted them two hundred spots.
"Brother Yu, we are all family, and the four major families are connected…"
Lin Guoning brought the Yu family members from the Four Sages Sect to the tribe, treating them well and brainwashing them, telling them about the outside world with the aim of awakening the members of the Four Sages Sect.
When Lin Jiang put them to sleep back then, it was mixed up. Each space fragment had four families sleeping, and the Four Sages Sect fell under the Lin family.
Each sleeping cultivator had their own separated room, blocked by giant stones and traps. It was easy to push through from the inside but impossible to open from the outside without breaking it.
Originally, each sleeping cultivator didn’t know who was next to them, but this had a loophole because their relationships were complex, often close, so they paid attention to each other.
This was why Lin Guoning and the others wanted to deceive the Yu family descendants. They hoped the Yu family descendants would lead the way to forcefully open the doors of their own people to wake them up. Otherwise, if those inside came out and couldn’t accept the situation, there might be conflicts.
"Brother Lin, the outside is really horrible."
"Brother Yu, can I still trick you? Can you feel a bit of spiritual power?"
"No."
"Exactly, there is no spiritual power outside, no path, our slumber is a joke. Why not wake them up early, rebuild our sect and family, and enjoy the present?"
Lin Guoning said, after some persuasion, the descendants of the Yu family slowly agreed to this idea.
Afterwards, Lin Guoning asked the descendants of the Yu family to rest and sent some primitive beauties to them, while he met with the leaders of three other families.
"Congratulations to Brother Lin, the Lin family will have more strong warriors."
"Ah, they are all just beginners, not only lacking in strength but also skills, offering very little help."
Lin Guoning said, they all have the same goal, wanting to wake up all these slumbering people, unite them, and quickly transform the current world to restore the prosperity of the cultivation era.
They all came from the era of cultivating immortality, knowing how prosperous that era was. Not to mention, just in terms of material enjoyment, it is incomparable to the present.
"Brother Lin, don’t be modest. Your Lin family is highly valued by the ancestor Lin Jiang, with the most people in slumber. Once awakened, your Lin family will reign supreme in the current world."
"Brother Feng, what you said doesn’t make sense. Your ancestor Cao Ying and our Sixth Patriarch have an unbreakable bond. Your Zhonghang Sect is also full of talented individuals. In the future, your Zhonghang Sect will also be the top sect in the world."
"Haha, both brothers, don’t be humble. The top sects of the cultivation era have dispersed now. Besides us, the whole world is left with some ignorant natives. Even if we occupy a whole province, so what?"
"That’s right, no one could have imagined that we would have the last laugh. Those top sects, those sects with legacies of tens of thousands of years, they all end up as dust in the wind."
Lin Guoning let out a sigh. They were all ambitious individuals who not only sought enjoyment in the present but also wanted to expand their own power.
Once, their influence in the cultivation world was only at a mediocre level. Only Zhonghang Sect, in the last few centuries, produced an Cao Ying who barely reached the top level. However, in terms of heritage, they were no match for the sects like Danxia Sect.
Circumstances changed. The once powerful sects have all disappeared into oblivion. On the other hand, each of them had thousands of people in slumber. Once these people were awakened, dominating the world would be an effortless task. There was no competition among them yet, after all, the world was vast. Each family occupying a province was just a trivial matter.
After resting for a few days, they led the young members of the Yu family into a fragmented space. The scene in the fragmented space was desolate, with stone houses standing like beehives in the distance.
"This is where my eighth uncle sleeps, this is where one of my nephews sleeps, this is the place of the Lu family…"
The descendants of the Yu family led a group of people to a group of stone houses, pointing to a few stone houses and saying, "Only fifty people from the Four Sages Sect entered here, and he didn’t know everyone. He only remembered the positions of a few people who had good relationships, and he pointed them all out."
"Brother Yu, let’s begin now."
Lin Guoning nodded, since Brother Yu had agreed, they needed to get started.
The big door of the stone house was made of large stone slabs, these slabs were not naturally formed, but were melted after being formed. Even without the reinforcement of any formations, they had the hardness of magical artifacts, very hard.
Even if Lin Guoning and his friends wanted to break it open, it was not a simple matter, so they brought some young strong men from the tribe to slowly break it open, even if it took one or two months, it didn’t matter.
The slaves were working while the bosses were chatting, Lin Guoning and his friends couldn’t help but talk about the rising forces in the south in recent years, the Xia Kingdom.
They hadn’t heard of the language and writing of the Xia Kingdom, so they didn’t know who founded it, but they knew it was very strong. Even though it was far from their influence, its influence had reached them.
They thought that among the primitive natives, there appeared an unparalleled genius to achieve this, so they still looked down on this Xia Kingdom. They firmly believed that when they awakened more people, they could completely build a world that was a hundred times more prosperous than the Xia Kingdom.
"Bang"
One day, as they were chatting, they suddenly heard a loud noise. They turned around and saw the person who stayed at the entrance of the space debris running towards them in a hurry, followed by more and more people appearing behind him.
