That day, while Suiren was thinking, he suddenly heard a sound coming from above his head. He looked up and saw a bird pecking at a tree, looking for insects inside. However, the scene in front of him gave him a flash of inspiration, because he saw the bird's beak hitting the tree, producing sparks.
Seeing this, Suiren immediately found some trunks and branches of that tree and began to study them. After several experiments, Suiren finally found the most effective way, which was the most ancient way of making fire — drilling wood to make fire.
First, he found a depression or made a hole in the wood. Then, he took a branch with a relatively sharp end and inserted it into the hole. Then, he used his hand to rotate the branch back and forth, causing friction to generate heat. After a long time, a fire core would naturally appear. Then, he placed the fire core in the dry grass or other flammable things and gently blew on it. Fire would naturally appear.
Suiren held a torch that he had just lit and shouted happily, "Today, I, Suiren, have succeeded in making fire by drilling wood. I've got the first fire for the human race. The human race is about to leave the life of fluff and drink blood and enter the era of fire. Heaven and Earth will bear witness to this."
Hardly had his voice faded away when thunder rumbled in the sky. After the thunder, countless merits fell from the sky towards Suiren. Ten percent of them fell on the torch held by Suiren, while the rest were all absorbed by Suiren. Suiren immediately sensed the changes in Tendo in front of him. His cultivation kept improving until it reached the peak of Daluo Jinxian.
Powerful. After absorbing the merit, Suirenshi's cultivation soared. Although he didn't use any cultivation method, he could clearly feel the enormous power contained in his body. He felt that any beast he had encountered before was no longer his opponent. Even if it was those terrifying demon beasts, he was confident that he could deal with them.
After Suiren taught his clansmen the method of drilling wood to make fire, the tree that was easiest to drill wood to make fire was called Flint by the human race to show the merits that Suiren had obtained for the human race. Since then, the human race had learned how to make fire by artificial means, such as roasting food, lighting, heating, smelting and so on. The human race's life had entered a new stage.
Suiren had to stay away from the human race for the time being because of the sudden increase in his strength. Because of the merits, Suiren's cultivation didn't have any hidden dangers, but he couldn't control his strength completely. Staying away from the human race was the best way. On the one hand, he could learn how to control his strength, and on the other hand, he wanted to study how to make his clansmen have the same strength.
The human race hadn't come into contact with the outside world yet, so they didn't know what cultivation was. Suiren could only rely on himself, hoping to find a way to cultivate. After all, he was Daluo Jinxian and could already sense the existence of Tendo. Naturally, he could find a simple way to cultivate.
After the human race learned how to make fire by artificial means, the human race became stronger and stronger and began to expand gradually. However, at this time, the human race encountered another problem. After popularizing the use of fire, the human race was no longer afraid of being attacked by wild beasts. However, when it rained heavily, the fire would be extinguished and difficult to preserve. Moreover, when the human race slept in the wilderness, many people would be attacked by wild beasts if they weren't careful.
When the Yūcho Clan saw this situation, they began to think of a solution. One day, when the Yūcho Clan was walking on the road, they heard a chirping sound coming from a tree. When they looked up, they saw a flock of birds chirping. Suddenly, an idea flashed through their mind.
Birds were protected from many wild beasts because they lived in trees. Could it be the same for humans? Thinking about this, the Yūcho Clan began to let their clansmen live in trees. However, gradually, the Yūcho Clan discovered the problem.
Although living in trees could greatly reduce the risk of being attacked by wild beasts, it also caused a lot of inconvenience. Not only could the clansmen not live in trees, but it was also very inconvenient to go up and down. Most importantly, they could fall to their deaths if they weren't careful. When the Yūcho Clan saw this, they naturally wanted to find a better way to live.
One day, it rained heavily. The clansmen who were hunting outside all hid. Some hid under trees, some hid in cracks in rocks, and some hid in caves. When the Yūcho Clan saw this, they couldn't help but have a new idea. If they used grass, trees, and stones to build a shelter from the rain, the human race would have a place to live.
After the rain stopped, the Yūcho Clan immediately began to gather stones, grass, and trees. They began to slowly pile them up. Not long after, a simple house appeared in front of everyone. The roof was covered with straw so that the clansmen wouldn't have to be afraid if it rained heavily.
When the Yūcho Clan saw this, they were ecstatic. They shouted, "Today, the Yūcho Clan built the first house for the human race. It will shelter the human race from the wind and rain. The human race will no longer live in the wilderness. From now on, the human race will have their own place to live. Heaven and Earth will witness this!"
As soon as the Yūcho Clan finished speaking, the Tendo sensed it and once again bestowed boundless merit. 10% of it landed on the Yūcho Clan's newly built house while the rest was absorbed by the Yūcho Clan. As the Yūcho Clan absorbed the merit, his cultivation level began to increase. He only stopped when he reached the peak of the Daluo Jinxian. The Yūcho Clan laughed and stretched out their hands. The house that had absorbed the merit slowly became smaller until it was the size of a palm. It then fell into the hands of the Yūcho Clan.
The Yūcho Clan's house was similar to the Suiren's torches. Because it had absorbed the Tendo's merit, it had transformed into a Postnatal Merit Lingbao. It was also attached with the faith of the human race. Its power was boundless and was not inferior to a Xiantian Lingbao.
The Yūcho Clan then began to instruct their people to build houses. During the construction process, the houses were gradually improved. Since then, the human race had completely gotten rid of the life of sleeping in the wilderness and began to have fixed residences. This was the precursor to the formation of human tribes.
Like the Suiren, after the Yūcho Clan became the Daluo Jinxian, they temporarily bid farewell to their people and went deep into the mountains to look for the Suiren. They began to deduce the cultivation method together with the Suiren. Among the human race, there was only one female ancestor left, Ziyi-Shi.
Ziyi-Shi was worthy of being one of the three ancestors of the human race. She discovered a major problem of the human race. The human race was now covered in fine hair. Some insects in the Great Desolation were poisonous. After being bitten by the insects, the human race would often die.
In this regard, Ziyi-Shi was helpless. Ever since the human race learned how to drill wood to make fire, they began to use torches to drive away the insects. The effect was good. The death rate of the human race was greatly reduced. However, many people were still harmed. Ziyi-Shi was heartbroken.
After having houses, the harm of insects became less. However, the human race had to go out to find food. After going out, there was no shelter. Many people died because of this. Moreover, Ziyi-Shi slowly discovered that although the human race was not so afraid of the cold after having houses and fires, they were still helpless when going out. Many people could not withstand the cold and often fainted.
One day, Ziyi-Shi accidentally discovered that a beast was bitten by a poisonous insect. Seeing this, Ziyi-Shi's eyes lit up. Could it be that the beast was not afraid of poisonous insects? Moreover, the beast was obviously not afraid of the cold. This made her feel that she had found a solution.
When Ziyi-Shi returned to the tribe, she immediately found some beasts that had been killed by the human race. She asked people to skin them and dry them with fire. Ziyi-Shi wrapped the dried beast's fur around her body. She felt extremely warm. This way, she would not be afraid of the cold.
Looking at the fur on her body, Ziyi-Shi's face lit up. "Today, my Ziyi-Shi has made the first set of clothes for the human race. It will help the human race resist the attack of insects. From now on, the human race will have their own protection method. Heaven and Earth will be watching."
Just as Ziyi-Shi finished speaking, the sky changed. Suddenly, countless merits descended from the nine heavens. All of them landed on Ziyi-Shi's body and the beast's fur. After the merit baptism, Ziyi-Shi's cultivation immediately reached the peak of Daluo Jinxian. The beast's fur also became the Acquired Merit Lingbao, which had unparalleled defense.
Suiren's torch was an offensive magic weapon. After it was activated, it could release endless True Samadhi Fire. Ordinary people would not be able to withstand it. From the Journey to the West where Red Boy burned Sun Wukong, one could see the power of the True Samadhi Fire.
As for the Yūcho Clan's house, it was both offensive and defensive. However, it was not as offensive as Suiren's torch and defensive as Ziyi-Shi's beast's fur. Fortunately, it was both offensive and defensive and was not bad. If the three ancestors cooperated with each other, their offensive and defensive capabilities would be limitless.
