In the Nameless World, Gao Chengtu followed the guidance of two young men to the tribe.
Before coming here, he had quickly learned the language of the place, and from the young man named Tan, he got a general idea of the situation.
The tribe used to live on the plains of the Great River. However, a sudden flood had submerged almost all of the land that was known to be habitable, and the survivors had no choice but to move to the higher mountains.
However, it was difficult to obtain food, and there was very little land that could be cultivated. They could only rely on the young and strong of the tribe to hunt and fish to survive. Because of the narrow living space, the population was limited. The tribe only had about three thousand people, and if a natural disaster suddenly struck, everyone would be killed.
His arrival quickly caused a commotion in the tribe. Ever since the flood, they had not seen any outsiders. This was because the mountain they occupied was the highest mountain in the continent, so many people believed that they were the only ones left in the world.
However, when they learned that Gao Chengtu had flown over from the sea, they were even more excited. That was because hundreds of years ago, a Sage had prophesied that a god would come from the north on a cloud, and that he would be able to repel the flood and save the people. Didn't his arrival confirm the prophecy?
The Tribe Chief immediately invited him into his house, and offered him the best clothes and food.
Gao Chengtu saw that the clothes were made of animal hide and sewn together with bone needles, and that the food was nothing more than ordinary salted meat. However, he didn't look down on them, and accepted them solemnly.
The Tribe Chief was very happy that Gao Chengtu had accepted his gifts, which meant that he was willing to help them. That meant that the tribe's chances of survival were even greater.
Gao Chengtu didn't do anything immediately. He rested for the night, and then spent the next few days checking out the situation around the tribe. Soon, he had a general idea of what was going on.
He came to this realm to seek the Dao and preach it. However, after visiting so many realms, he was very clear that the first thing the people here needed to solve was the problem of survival and nothing else. Without food, clothing, and warmth, they could face the threat of natural disasters at any time. How could they follow him to learn the Dao?
At this point, the seeds he had brought from the Mountain and Sea Realm would be very useful. They could grow into towering trees in the hard soil of the Western Sky Badlands, so planting them here would be no problem.
The only difficulty was that if these plants wanted to grow as tall as the ones he saw the other day, they would need spiritual opportunity. Although there was some spiritual opportunity in this world, it was not abundant. Hence, these spiritual trees would grow very slowly.
It wasn't that he didn't have a way to solve this problem. He could use his mana to nurture it, and when it bore fruit and could feed more people, he could ask the children to follow him to learn Dao techniques. When they had cultivated their mana, he could turn it around and cultivate more spiritual trees. When their lives were inseparable from Dao techniques, the people in this world would naturally pay attention to it.
However, all of these had to be maintained for a long time, so he only took out some straw mushrooms that could be effective in the short term. These things were originally symbiotic with spiritual trees, and could also be used to alleviate hunger. Moreover, once they grew into a large area, they could immediately solve the predicament that the tribe was facing.
With his help, it only took two years for the tribe's situation to change dramatically.
At this time, Gao Chengtu began to impart Dao techniques to the children who had come to cultivate the Dao. "If the Dao techniques are strong enough, they can change the heavens and the earth. As far as I know, some almighty beings can even make the flood retreat with a wave of their hand."
From his point of view, dealing with Outsider demons was actually a bit easier, while dealing with Heavenly Tribulations was the most difficult. Unfortunately, the people of this world were facing the latter situation.
Sitting below, Ah Tan's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Master, have you seen such people before?"
Gao Chengtu shook his head. "I haven't, but they do exist." Then he looked at the children and said in a very certain tone, "But you can't do this. If you can cultivate your Dao techniques, you can also use the spiritual trees to create land. As long as the legacy is passed on, sooner or later, you will be able to create a land for yourselves."
Inside the mirror lake, after Ancestor Yao Han finished talking with Yu Qiu and Yu Lu, he sank into his Divine Will. Moments later, a white-faced, scholarly looking cultivator with long hair appeared.
This person was called Yuan Mei, the treasure spirit that Jizhuang Daoren was chasing. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Daoist Yao Han. What business do you have with me?"
Ancestor Yao Han returned the greeting and said, "Daoist Yao Han, it's useless for you to keep running like this. Sooner or later, Ji Zhuang will find you."
Yuan Mei had a distressed look on his face. He had been cultivating well in his original place, and who would have thought that a calamity would befall him? Daoist Ji Zhuang had told him that, with his temper, he would have been fine with not cultivating dao skills, as long as he could live a peaceful life. But Patriarch Yao Han wanted him to flee, which was a clear rejection of the idea. Now, Ji Zhuang would not allow him to live.
He wasn't born a human cultivator, and had never experienced the tempering of the Dao. He had always been an indecisive person, and when Patriarch Yao Han had instigated him, he had lost his head and fled. But now he regretted it. He wanted to concede, but was worried that Ji Zhuang wouldn't let him off the hook.
He was resentful, and said, "If I didn't run away, this wouldn't have happened."
Ancestor Yao Han said, "Do you think a treasure spirit like you will live? Not to mention, you have no way out now.
Yuan Mi stammered, "But I can feel that Bu Xu Tian also has a treasure spirit incarnation of fellow Daoist's mana spreading out. If I go to Bu Xu Tian …"
Ancestor Yao Han chuckled. "As far as I know, Ji Zhuang once invited Heavenly Chariot Lord Bu Xu and Daoist Xuan Yuan to capture you, but Daoist Xuan Yuan did not agree. However, it is impossible for him to help you, and Ji Zhuang will definitely be on guard against this. If you dare to reveal any clues at this time, I'm afraid you will be exposed.
His voice paused for a moment. "Ji Zhuang hasn't found you yet because he has other important matters to attend to. He hasn't put much effort into this matter. However, his power is constantly increasing, and you have no time to seek nourishment. You know what he is thinking."
Yuan Mei smiled bitterly, "Then what do you think I should do?"
Patriarch Yao Han said, "The only reason I have such a reputation is because I obtained a portion of the Treasured Lotus of Good Fortune. But if Fellow Daoist has it, you won't have to fear Ji Manor."
Yuan Mei was shocked, "There is such a Pauline elsewhere?" Soon after, a trace of doubt appeared in his mind, and he asked in confusion, "But since you have this item, why didn't you go and get it yourself?"
Ancestor Yao Han sighed, "Do you think I don't want to? It's just that Ji Zhuang is watching me, and I can't act rashly. Otherwise, why would I help you?"
Yuan Mei lowered his head, thinking about something.
Ancestor Yao Han knew that Yuan Mei's personality was like this, and he often couldn't make a decision, so he continued, "Make a decision quickly, Daoist. Ji Zhuang will find a loophole in the concealment method sooner or later, and I don't need to tell you what will happen then."
Yuan Mei hesitated, "Will it really work?"
Ancestor Yao Han said, "If I didn't teach you the concealment method, how could you avoid Ji Zhuang's pursuit? Don't worry, it will work! Of course, if you manage to escape, you will need to come back and help me. "
Yuan Mei said, "Then … what should I do?" He couldn't refuse, and he didn't know whether to refuse or not. He could only take it one step at a time.
Ancestor Yao Han told him what to do and said, "There are some dangers here, especially after you obtain it. You will be exposed, so you will have to rely on yourself." He then said solemnly, "I only hope that you can succeed, or else all my efforts will be in vain."
Yuan Mei said, "Yes, I will pay attention."
Ancestor Yao Han did not retreat because if he allowed Yuan Mo to do things on his own, he would be hesitant to take the next step. Thus, he repeatedly urged Yuan Mo through his Divine Will.
Yuan Mei had no choice but to act according to Ancestor Yao Han's words. He looked at the source of the Inspiration, which was his target, and immediately went there.
In the beginning, he was still very relaxed, but very soon, he felt a resistance. He was already prepared for this, and he also knew that once he decided to move, it was impossible for him to stop. So, he did not stop at all and rushed deeper. However, as his mana surged, the aura that he had concealed earlier was also exposed.
Jizhuang Daoren had been looking for Yuan Mei, so he immediately sensed it and looked over. But when he saw that Yuan Mei was going to the source of the Inspiration, he couldn't help but be surprised.
But he soon felt something was wrong, because Yuan Mei had exposed himself. Not only would he know, but that existence could also feel it. It could come out and devour Yuan Mei at any time. There was no way Yuan Mei didn't know this, but he was still taking such a big risk. There must be a purpose here, and it was so big that it didn't fear him. Could it be that it wanted the source of the Inspiration?
His expression became serious. A Treasure Spirit couldn't do this, but if there was someone else behind it, it would be hard to determine the result.
The problem now was that he couldn't interfere because Yuan Mei would be fine, but if he went, it would lead to unpredictable consequences. So he couldn't do anything and could only watch.
Zhang Yan suddenly opened his eyes. Just Now, he felt a strange movement. He knew that something was happening, and it might involve that existence. He had a premonition about this, but after repeatedly divining it, he found it difficult to determine. Moreover, there were pros and cons, so he didn't act recklessly.
At this time, he also saw Yuan Mei's figure rushing towards the source of the Inspiration, and he immediately recognized its origin from the Mana fluctuation.
He also instantly determined that there was an ulterior motive.
He silently calculated in his heart. If he went forward now, he could stop it, but first, he couldn't determine its real intention. Secondly, his heart told him that it was best not to interfere at this moment, so he sat and watched.
At this moment, Yuan Mei had already rushed to the extreme depths of the spiritual aura fluctuation. Logically speaking, if he got close to this place, he would not be able to advance any further, unless his mighty power could suppress the opposite side. However, using some unknown method, his figure actually did not slow down at all. In an instant, he passed through the obstruction, reached out his hand, and grabbed the source of the spiritual aura!
