Chapter 1828: Chapter 470: Hei Ye Before Dawn_2

The grip design of the sword handle is meticulously crafted, far superior to what the Bone Blade can offer.

When the first batch of Fierce Beast Bone Armor and Bloodthirsty Blades were distributed to Shui Ya’s Personal Guard for testing, the warriors clad in the new armor easily shattered their colleagues wearing the old Bone Armor during drills. The captain wielding the Bloodthirsty Blade slashed through the Black Dragon Stone—previously requiring multiple strikes—with a single blow, the blood-colored energy swirling around the blade, lingering persistently.

Shui Ya watched his subordinates’ combat power surge visibly, and while astounded, he decisively reported the news.

The upper echelon of the Bone Splitting Clan was shocked upon receiving the news.

An order was issued: Full-scale production, prioritize equipping the main army corps.

From then on, Tiexin’s name from the Downspirit Clan was increasingly mentioned in the Bone Splitting Clan’s military circles.

All the warriors of the Bone Splitting Clan began to covet a set of "Fierce Beast" armor or a "Bloodthirsty" blade.

They still regarded the Downspirit Clan as lowly slaves, but had to admit that only these slaves could make them stronger.

However, the Bone Splitting Clan did not know that this was also a shackle bestowed upon them by Tu Hu.

It’s easy to fall into luxury but hard to return to thrift; the Bone Splitting Clan does not understand this, but Tu Hu does.

Once the Downspirit Clan fully embedded themselves into the Bone Splitting Clan’s war system, this set of shackles quietly closed.

While the Bone Splitting Clan was fervent about war equipment, the team led by Tiexin quietly monitored the amount of equipment crafted, distributed, and all other data.

This data would help the Downspirit Clan outline the Bone Splitting Clan’s detailed war strength.

And for every perfect weapon crafted by Tiexin for the enemy, a future guide on dismantling and destroying it would be custom-made.

Time swiftly passed, ten years silently gone.

The Downspirit Clan had infiltrated every gear of the Bone Splitting Clan’s war system like flowing water.

They became an indispensable propellant for this massive conquest machine.

Their status underwent substantial change.

Although still slaves nominally, they began to stand on equal footing with ordinary Bone Splitting warriors.

The warriors of the Bone Splitting Clan might still harbor disdain for the weak in their hearts, but faced with Downspirit craftsmen and scholars who could escalate their combat power, they would still experience reverence.

Tiexin himself had become a unique presence in the eyes of the Bone Splitting Clan.

He could even bring assistants and freely access many military outposts to inspect the equipment usage firsthand and communicate directly with the Bone Splitting Clan’s corps management.

Fierce Bone Splitting warriors would demonstrate their weapon use techniques to Tiexin and propose improvement ideas.

Tiexin silently recorded this information.

In this "close-knit" collaboration, the Bone Splitting Clan’s war strength became no secret to the Downspirit Clan.

Tiexin’s Equipment Department accurately outlined the number of the Bone Splitting Clan’s main army corps and their deployment rotation patterns through production quotas, army distribution, and loss replenishment frequencies of Bone Armor and Bloodthirsty Blades. It could even clearly determine whether any army corps would have a war deployment soon.

The Communication Network Department controlled by Qi Ming then mastered the neurological network of the Split Bone Empire.

Information transit nodes were scattered throughout the Bone Splitting Clan’s territory, with every directive’s flow revealing troop movement, logistical supply lines, and shifts in strategic focus.

They could even infer the direction of each action by analyzing changes in communication traffic.

Next was the Resource Dispatch Center, monitoring which resources were prioritized to which war zones, the quantity, combined with equipment distribution and communication information, then reverse-engineering the intensity of warfare in that zone and the next rhythm of attacks.

All the fragmented information ultimately converged in Tu Hu’s hands, being recorded in the Dream Weaving Crystal Stone.

Inside the illusion space, a large sand table was operating in real-time.

The sand table clearly marked the Bone Splitting Clan’s territories, troop distribution, resource flows, communication trunk lines... detailed beyond what the upper echelon of the Bone Splitting Clan comprehended.

In Tu Hu’s eyes, the Bone Splitting Clan was completely transparent.

Moreover, whenever the Bone Splitting Clan conquered a new territory or discovered an unknown resource during this phase, their first reaction was to promptly send samples to New Star Valley, hoping they could be converted into tools of war.

This reliance granted the Downspirit Clan a significant space for "freedom to improvise."

Over more than a decade, the Downspirit Clan came into contact with a plethora of peculiar materials and energy technologies far exceeding what they had controlled before being enslaved, realizing an explosive leap in overall technical level, reaching a brand-new height.

But the leap in technology was only one edge of the sword of revenge.

Tu Hu always understood that to launch a counterattack, the scattered forces must first be unified.

The biggest obstacle now was the Bone Splitting Clan’s incessant strategy of "dispersing."

New Star Valley was like a tree root constantly having its branches and leaves pruned. Although the trunk remained, the most vital energy was mobilized and scattered across various mines, fronts, and even other slave clans serving under supervision. These forces were like kite strings cut loose, difficult to organize and connect.

They bore the most direct oppression, and were also the ones whose anger towards resistance burned most fiercely, yet isolated with no help, they could only bury their hatred deep.

Communication and organization were daunting hurdles on the road to revenge.

The answer finally pointed to a technology within the Dream Weaving Clan’s knowledge base: the Spirit Rhinoceros Crystal Core.

This was a miniature crystal stone implantable into living bodies, essentially a more advanced "Spirit Language Communication Device."

Once implanted, it could establish connections with nearby signal towers anytime, and supply power through the biological entity itself, without needing removal for recharging.

But before this technology was put into practice, Tu Hu posed a request to Qi Ming’s team:
