Were the Ox Race really stupid? No, they weren't stupid at all. Their cultivation talent was actually very good. It's just that they were a little one-track minded. Whatever they did, they would always choose a path and continue to walk down it. For them, this was both an advantage and a disadvantage.
Their advantage was because they were likely to succeed. Because if they continued to walk down a path, even if this path was wrong, they might still succeed in the end. This was because along the way, they would constantly discover their own mistakes and find the reason for their failure. This way, they would slowly succeed.
His weakness was that after they had embarked on one path, they might not find any other paths. Perhaps in their eyes, there was only one path.
The reason why the Ox Race hadn't produced any strong experts in the past few years was because their inheritance had been broken once. During the war between the Yi Sect and the Holy Gate, the experts of the Yi Sect had all died in battle. This caused their inheritance to be broken. Not only did the Yi Sect not help them restore their inheritance, they also suppressed the Ox Race to a certain extent. Therefore, the Ox Race didn't have any experts to speak for them. Naturally, their status wasn't high. But even so, no one dared to underestimate them. After all, the strength of their entire race was there. Therefore, the status of the Ox Race in the Yi Sect was very awkward.
The Ox Race in the Yi Sect didn't have any way to produce strong experts in their own race. They thought that it was because they didn't know anything else. Therefore, they wholeheartedly wanted to learn the art of arrays. This actually led them to embark on a wrong path. If they continued to walk down this path, they might take a lot of detours.
However, the disciple of the Sea Exploring Sect was different. When he talked to Niu Ping, he immediately discovered the problem. Therefore, he directly talked to Niu Ping and used Ding Chunming as an example. Niu Ping wasn't stupid, he just didn't understand the situation. Now that he heard the disciple of the Sea Exploring Sect, he felt that what the other party said was very reasonable.
The disciple of the Sea Exploring Sect looked at the Ox Race and said, "Senior Brother Niu, our Sea Exploring Sect has countless cultivation methods. You will certainly be able to find the most suitable cultivation method for you. When the time comes, the strength of your race will increase greatly. It would be great if you can produce a few Supreme Elders. At that time, no one would dare to look down on you. But if you want to learn about arrays, then that's fine. But I think that you shouldn't put your main energy in learning about arrays, instead, you should focus on cultivation. You can learn about arrays, but don't put your heart and soul into it. Otherwise, you would be putting the cart before the horse."
Niu Ping nodded. The Sea Exploring Sect disciple continued, "Senior Brother Niu, the reason why I'm asking you these questions today is to help you create a file and find the most suitable cultivation method for you. In the future, the experts of the sect will customize a cultivation method for you. If you follow that method, I believe that your strength will quickly increase. Moreover, the sect will also check the cultivation method and materials that you've been given every month to see if your cultivation progress is the same as the sect's estimate. If your cultivation progress is the same as the sect's estimate, then you can study arrays, alchemy, and so on. But if your cultivation progress is slow, then the sect will absolutely not allow you to study arrays. Everything in the sect is still based on cultivation. Do you understand what I mean?"
Do you understand? "As soon as Niu Ping heard this, he nodded and said," I understand. What you mean is that I can learn whatever I want, but I can't neglect my cultivation. If I neglect my cultivation, then I won't be able to learn anything, right? "
"Yes, that's what I mean. Therefore, Senior Brother, please pay attention to this. The disciples of your sect should also pay attention to this point. They should prioritize their strength and cultivation."
"Thank you, Junior Brother. I'll remember this. I'll write a letter to the Patriarch and tell him about this situation. I really have to thank Junior Brother today. If Junior Brother didn't tell me this, then I might still be thinking about learning about arrays."
"Senior Brother, you're being too courteous. This is what I should do. After all, this is what I'm supposed to do. The Sect Master has said that it is our greatest contribution to improve the strength of the Sea Exploring Sect disciples. Senior Brother, I'll take my leave now. I still have to go to the other senior brothers to compile the statistics."
"Junior Brother, you can go and do your work. When you're done, you must come and find me. At that time, I, Niu Ping, will definitely treat you to a good drink. Right, I still don't know Junior Brother's name. I won't be able to find you in the future."
"Hahaha, Senior Brother is too polite. My name is Shi Shusheng. If Senior Brother wants to find me in the future, please go to the archives. Goodbye." After saying that, Shi Shusheng turned and left.
After Shi Shusheng left, Niu Ping pondered for a moment in his room. Then, he immediately walked towards the transmission array. The Ox Tribe had their own area of residence, which was the Ox-Head Mountain Plain. It sounded strange. It was clearly called the Ox-Head Mountain, so why was there a plain? In fact, it wasn't strange at all. There was a basin with a mountain called the Ox-Head Mountain. Below the mountain was a large plain, which was naturally called the Ox-Head Mountain Plain.
To be honest, the Ox-Head Mountain Plain really had a story. The Ox-Head Mountain Plain wasn't originally the territory of the Ox Tribe. In the Ox-Head Mountain Plain lived a very special kind of demon beast called the Jackal Beast. It was a very powerful demon beast. Its combat strength was very strong, its bite force was amazing, and its defense was also very strong. The most important thing was that there were a lot of Jackals. Moreover, they knew how to cooperate in battle, which made them very difficult to deal with.
And for some reason, these Jackals didn't have any intelligence. They couldn't be considered a member of the Demon Race. They were a kind of demon beast, but they occupied such a large area.
However, because the number of Jackals was astonishing, and some of them could even fly, no race was willing to provoke them.
Naturally, the Yi Sect also knew about this place. In order to suppress the Ox Tribe, they sealed the Ox Tribe's territory here. Moreover, they also said that this place would be the Ox Tribe's territory for generations. No one would dare to snatch it. Even the Yi Sect's Master had no right to let the Ox Tribe leave their territory.
On the surface, this seemed to be a good thing. Such a large piece of land was all theirs. With such a large piece of land, it would be too easy for the Ox Tribe to develop. Moreover, they would have a place to live for generations to come. This was definitely a good thing.
But in fact, it wasn't the case at all. Because of the existence of the Jackal Beast, this place was almost equivalent to a dead land. If the Ox Tribe went there, even if they didn't die, they would almost die. It could be seen how serious the Yi Sect's suppression of the Ox Tribe was.
The reason why the Yi Sect suppressed the Ox Clan was because the Ox Clan had a great enmity with the Sect Master of the Yi Sect at that time. Therefore, the Sect Master of the Yi Sect wanted to suppress the Ox Clan wholeheartedly, and even hoped that the Ox Clan would die out.
At that time, the Cow-people had a very hard time. They moved to the plains of the Ox-Head Mountains and began to fight for space with the jackals. After nearly a hundred years of war, more than half of the Cow-people died. Only then did they manage to exterminate the jackals and truly occupy the plains of the Ox-Head Mountains. They have been living there ever since, until today.
It was also because of the war with the Jackal Gai that they suffered too many losses, so the Ox Tribe's inheritance had a problem. That was why there were no experts. However, in any case, the Ox Clan had their own territory. They had also recovered well over the years. Moreover, the Ox Clan wasn't stupid. They knew very well that the reason why they were in this situation today was because of the Sect Master of the Yi Sect. Therefore, their Yi Sect also belonged to a relatively different existence. Their relationship with the Sect Master of the Yi Sect was not very good.
However, the Ox Head Mountain Plains still had everything that should be there. Naturally, there was also a transmission formation. Niu Ping now wanted to take the transmission formation and return to the Ox Head Mountain Plains. He wanted to tell the Patriarch what Shi Shusheng told him and see what the Patriarch would say.
Currently, the Yi Sect's transmission formation wasn't very busy. Because the people of the Sea Exploring Sect were here, they didn't really need the transmission formation. Therefore, Niu Ping quickly took the transmission formation and returned to the Ox Head Mountain Plains.
The Ox Head Mountain Plains produced all kinds of low-grade herbs and grains. There were also a lot of Ox Tribesmen here. However, most of the Ox Tribesmen lived on the Ox Head Mountain while the plains below were used for farming.
In the Ox Head Mountain, there was a Ox Head Village. Although it was called a village, it was actually a huge stone city. Most of the Ox Tribesmen lived here. In the middle of this city, there was a large transmission formation plaza. Niu Ping appeared on this transmission formation plaza.
As soon as he appeared on the plaza, some people immediately recognized him. One of the Ox Tribesmen who was guarding the transmission formation quickly said, "Brother Ping, you're back. Why did you come back at this time? Did something happen? "
Niu Ping was very famous among the Ox Tribesmen. His strength was very strong among the younger generation. He was called one of the Ox Tribe's stars of hope.
Niu Ping nodded to the person and said, "I'm looking for the Patriarch. Is the Patriarch in the village?"
The person quickly replied, "Yes. The Ox Tribe is in the main hall of the village. They're currently discussing matters with the Elders. Brother Ping, you should go."
Niu Ping nodded, then he went straight to the stronghold in the city. The Ox Race's architectural style leaned towards the rough side. The entire stronghold was made of stone. It looked very sturdy, but it was also very rough. However, it had a different kind of beauty.
In the middle of the city, there was a village. This was the core of the Ox Tribe. The Patriarch and the Elders lived there. Niu Ping directly went to the village. Because he was one of the Ox Tribe's stars of hope, he was allowed to live in the village. Because of this, he was very familiar with the place.
There were two guards in front of the village. When the two guards saw Niu Ping, they gave him a salute and said, "Brother Ping, you're back."
Niu Ping nodded and said, "Alright, I'm looking for the Patriarch." The two guards nodded and didn't stop him.
