"Sir, please tell us! We will follow you to our deaths! "The Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and Ren Qingxu were overjoyed. They had only wanted to give it a try. The threshold of the Body Integration Realm was not so easy to cross. They would not be satisfied if they did not try, but who would have thought that Lu Xiaotian would agree so easily? As for the Red-Eyed Goat Demon, Ren Qingxu, and the others, although they couldn't follow Lu Xiaotian, once they left this place, they would be able to occupy a mountain region and establish a small force.
However, such a small force would be useless against a huge force backed by a Body Integration Realm old monster. Ren Qingxu's family of three would have died under Demon Sovereign Huai Ye's personal pursuit if they did not happen to know some information about the wild boar demon, Zhu Qi. Zhu Qi had even been forced into a corner by the Eastern Bear Emperor and the people of the Abyss Hall at Wild Boar Ridge. Even his tribe was in danger of being exterminated.
However, once he was under Lu Xiaotian's protection, with Lu Xiaotian's protection, this kind of problem would not exist. Compared to other Body Integration Realm experts, following Lu Xiaotian was much more promising.
Lu Xiaotian remembered that Dong Feng was still taking care of the Page Stone Tribesmen. Ever since he returned from the Blue Mirror Lake, he had left the Page Stone Tribesmen aside. First, he was busy breaking through to the Conjoint Body Realm in terms of Dharmic powers. Then, he went directly to find Ye Ziyu, Zhu Qi, and the others. He did not have time to meet the Page Stone Tribesmen.
"Zhu Qi, Zimo, Che Da, Che Er, you guys stay in the gorge and recover. I will be back soon." The Splitting Wind Gorge was very violent. Ordinary Divine Illusionary Realm cultivators would not be able to stay in there for long. As for the stronger Stone Tribe members, they would be torn to shreds before they could even get close to the Splitting Wind Gorge. Naturally, it was not suitable for them to stay here. Instead, Dong Feng arranged for them to stay in another place with dense spiritual Qi.
"Come with me." Lu Xiaotian's consciousness moved, and the surroundings were shrouded in clouds and mist. A cluster of clouds carried Lu Xiaotian and the others towards Chaotic Green Ruins. Originally, Lu Xiaotian wanted to find Dong Feng and ask about the location of the Stone Clan. However, with the strength of Lu Xiaotian's Divine Sense, he discovered the aura of the Page Stone Tribesmen along the way. He didn't look for Winter Maple, but directly rode the cloud to the gathering place of the Page Stone Tribesmen. Close to four hundred members of the Page Stone Tribe lived in this flat field with abundant spirit herbs. There was a small stream flowing through the field, and it was a place with rich spirit energy and beautiful scenery.
"Mister Lu, you're back." At this time, other than the Stone Tribe members, Wu Xiuli was also present. When Wu Xiuli saw Lu Xiaotian, her face lit up and she hurriedly saluted respectfully.
"Saint, Saint has returned." When the Page Stone Tribesmen who were originally cultivating in the field saw Lu Xiaotian, their faces lit up with joy. Ba Li also excitedly ran out of a relatively simple house.
"Welcome, Saint!" The Page Stone Tribesmen on the field all knelt down. As for the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and Ren Qingxu's family of three, their expressions were normal, but they felt a bit strange. It seemed that these several hundred foreign tribesmen with mountain-shaped heads and ugly faces that were a head taller than ordinary human cultivators were Lu Xiaotian's followers. Among them, there were only two or three early Divine Transformation cultivators with higher cultivation bases. Not to mention a Conjoint Body Realm expert like Lu Xiaotian, a Tier 4 Pill King, even Divine Illusionary Realm experts like them would look down on such a person.
Wu Xiuli, on the other hand, had known Lu Xiaotian for a longer time, so she wasn't surprised by this.
"Rise." Lu Xiaotian nodded and brought the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and Ren Qingxu's family of three to the ground.
"Have you gotten used to living here during this period of time?"
"The Page Stone Tribesmen can live anywhere, but we can't fight against strong enemies for Saint. Ba Li and his tribesmen feel ashamed to face Saint." Ba Li and Tuo Qian's faces were filled with shame. Ever since Lu Xiaotian removed the cursed spirit from their bodies, the Page Stone Tribesmen's muddled intelligence had returned to normal, and they weren't inferior to ordinary people. Ba Li and the other Page Stone Tribesmen naturally knew that with their cultivation bases, it would be very difficult for them to be of much use to Lu Xiaotian. They might even become a burden.
Compared to Wu Xiuli and even the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon by Lu Xiaotian's side, they were far inferior. It seemed that Saint needed stronger followers like the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon. Wherever they went, they were at the bottom of the hierarchy. If it weren't for Saint's protection, they wouldn't even be able to establish themselves in Chaotic Green Ruins, let alone occupy a place rich in spiritual energy like this.
"Any powerful existence can only be built with time. The Page Stone Tribesmen need time." Lu Xiaotian encouraged Ba Li and the other Page Stone Tribesmen. Only then did the desolation on their faces lessen slightly, and it was replaced by a look of enthusiasm.
"The few of you will stay here for the time being and guide them in their cultivation." Lu Xiaotian glanced at the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and Ren Qingxu. "Don't be selfish."
"Don't worry, Sir. We will definitely do our best to guide them on your behalf." The Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and Ren Qingxu's family of three hurriedly agreed. They secretly wondered what kind of dogshit luck these unprepossessing foreign tribes had. Looking at Lu Xiaotian's appearance, he valued these foreign tribes far more than the Divine Illusionary Realm experts.
"Sir, can the juniors also stay behind?" Hearing this, Wu Xiuli immediately became somewhat anxious. Originally, the ones who worked for Lu Xiaotian were mainly her and Dong Feng. She didn't expect that there would suddenly be a few more Divine Illusionary Realm experts. Even Conjoint Body Mighty Figures had limited space around them. The more people clung to them, the lighter their weight would be.
"This is up to you. Dong Feng's main task is to help me collect some spiritual materials and gather some information." Lu Xiaotian nodded. The reason why he looked at the Stone Tribe differently was because of their previous circumstances. The Stone Tribe struggled to survive in that kind of adversity. Their tenacity and resilience made Lu Xiaotian glance at them. Of course, this wasn't what he wanted the most. The main thing was that the Stone Tribe only wanted to follow him wholeheartedly and didn't have any other considerations or distracting thoughts. As for the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon, Ren Qingxu and the others, even Wu Xiuli, although they were rather grateful to Lu Xiaotian, they were more or less utilitarian.
Even if the Scarlet-Eyed Goat Demon and the others were slightly stronger, in Lu Xiaotian's eyes, it didn't make much of a difference. As long as he was willing, he could gather a bunch of them at any time. But the Stone Tribe was unique.
And in terms of guiding the Stone Tribe's cultivation, Wu Xiuli and the other Divine Illusionary Realm experts, even if they didn't cultivate the earth element, it was more than enough. After all, their realms and eyesight were not on the same level. As for Lu Xiaotian himself, he might not be able to do more than Wu Xiuli and the others.
Wu Xiuli nodded, indicating that she understood Lu Xiaotian's meaning.
"Ba Li." After instructing Wu Qingxu and the others, Lu Xiaotian called the current chief of the Stone Tribe over. At this moment, Ba Li's face looked old, but in reality, he wasn't that old. It was just that he started cultivating later, so his appearance had already taken shape and he couldn't change it.
