An Encounter with a Human Tribe, Years Later.

Chapter 27 An Encounter with a Human Tribe, Ten Years Later.

The man and the dragon fell silent and began their silent walk again.

At this moment, Chen Qing was experiencing the scenery of the primordial land. Since he came to this primordial world, he had never traveled around it. The reason was simply that he was too weak before.

Now that he has this strength, he naturally wants to travel around and take a good look at this primordial world.

Take a look at the splendor of this primordial world, and see its other side.

Moreover, while touring, he was also pondering how to condense the world. After all, condensing the world involves too many factors and is not something he can do at will.

The world, from its very beginning, involved the power of spacetime, followed by the power of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and so on. There are too many things involved here, and they are not so easy to condense.

A man and a dragon walked across the primordial land for decades.

One day, the two were walking in the mountains when they discovered something unusual ahead.

"Master, there's fighting ahead. Should we go and see?"

A wolf howled, reaching the ears of Chen Qing and the Mirage Dragon.

Immediately following was an extremely noisy sound.

Chen Qing frowned slightly as he listened to these sounds, a hint of confusion in his eyes.

He had already discerned that the people fighting were humans and wolf demons, but he didn't understand why they were fighting.

"Mirage Dragon, let's go take a look."

The battleground was not far from them; in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the battlefield.

Chen Qing and the Mirage Dragon stood on high ground, watching the wolf pack and the human tribe fighting below, and couldn't help but frown.

The wolf pack consisted of over a hundred giant wolves, each several meters tall, with thick limbs, sharp claws and teeth, and blood-red eyes.

In contrast, the human tribe, though numbering in the tens of thousands, was armed with stone spears, axes, shields, and other stone weapons.

This was because among the wolf pack, one wolf demon was at the Heavenly Immortal realm, several other wolf demons were at the Earthly Immortal realm, and the rest were at the Qi Refining realm.

Chen Qing knew that this wolf clan member at the Celestial Immortal realm was the leader of the wolf pack and the alpha wolf.

He stood amidst the wolf pack, his wolf eyes revealing disdain as he looked at the human race, directing his pack of giant wolves.

Although the human tribe has several people with the cultivation level of Earth Immortal, it has no people with the cultivation level of Heaven Immortal.

They were simply no match for the wolf, nor could they effectively withstand its attacks.

Looking at these people, Chen Qing saw that they possessed the strength of Earth Immortals and knew that this was the teachings of Laozi, who had passed on his teachings to the human race, and that the human race had transmitted the methods of cultivation to various tribes.

Moreover, it wasn't just Laozi who spread his teachings to the human race; many other powerful rogue cultivators also passed on their cultivation methods to the human race.

However, these methods of cultivation are all rather rudimentary; the most profound one is the Golden Elixir Dao taught by Laozi of Taiqing.

Among the human race, there is no shortage of geniuses.

Many talented members of the clan explored on their own and discovered this path of cultivation.

However, since they were figuring out the cultivation method on their own, without anyone to guide them, the cultivation process was extremely difficult.

The wolf pack and the human tribe fought each other, and people fell every moment.

In wolf pack battles, they help each other and attack together.

It might pounce, swing its claws, tear with its sharp fangs, or sweep its tail.

Humans could only use stone tools to deal with wolf packs. When attacked by wolves, they would instinctively dodge, but they had no organization and were unable to effectively resist the wolf pack's attack.

Moreover, the human's stone tools did little damage to the pack of wolves, and could even be said to have no effect at all.

Apart from a few people at the Earth Immortal realm, only a small portion of the human tribes were at the Qi Refining realm; the rest were people without any cultivation.

However, with abundant innate spiritual energy, the human race, living in this world, has their physical bodies constantly nourished by this innate spiritual energy, resulting in a significant increase in physical strength.

The two sides have been fighting for some time now.

Because thousands of humans have already fallen to the ground.

"Master, shall we leave now?"

After watching for a while, the Mirage Dragon found it quite boring. These fights seemed like children playing house to him, and they didn't interest him at all.

Chen Qing shook his head upon hearing the mirage dragon's words.

"We won't leave. We'll help that human tribe and wipe out the wolf pack."

Upon hearing this, the mirage dragon looked at Chen Qing with some surprise.

In the past, when they encountered conflict, they would simply watch for a while and then leave without offering any help.

But today, Chen Qing is going to lend a helping hand, which it finds hard to understand.

With a thought, Chen Qing conjured a prison cell in mid-air.

As soon as the prison appeared, an endless power of annihilation spread out, exerting its oppressive force in all directions.

A tremendous suction force emanated from it, drawing the wolf pack into it.

Then, within the prison, countless annihilating forces surged forth, instantly obliterating the wolf pack.

Countless annihilating forces wiped out the wolf pack, leaving only the purest primordial power.

The humans were stunned by what they saw, and for a moment no one could react.

When they came to their senses and saw that there were no wolves in front of them, and then looked at the prison in the sky, they immediately shouted towards the sky.

"May I ask which senior has passed by and lent a helping hand to our Purple Wood Tribe?"

Chen Qing glanced at the humans below, then took a step forward and landed in front of them.

With a thought, he retracted the prison and looked at the person before him.

"Purple Wood Tribe? My name is Chen Qing. I happened to be traveling around here and saw your tribe fighting with a pack of wolves. Since we are both human, I will lend you my help."

Upon hearing this, the people of the Purple Wood Tribe bowed to Chen Qing.

"Human race, Zimu clan leader Zimu has met with the sage Chen Qing."

"Today, we are so grateful for the help of our ancestors. If it weren't for their assistance, our Zimu tribe might have been wiped out. We can hardly repay such kindness."

"We humbly request that our sages visit our Zimu tribe so that our tribe may express our respect."

Hearing this, Chen Qing smiled and nodded in agreement.

Upon seeing that Chen Qing agreed, Zi Mu immediately ordered his people to go back and report, and also ordered people to clean up the battlefield. He then led the way for Chen Qing back to the tribe.

Without hesitation, Chen Qing walked beside Zi Mu Shi and headed forward.

The mirage dragon remained calm and followed Chen Qing's side as they headed towards the Purple Wood Tribe.

However, to his surprise, his master was so powerful that he was actually of human origin. This surprised him greatly, and he couldn't help but take a second look at these human people.

But no matter how it looked at it, it still couldn't see any difference, simply because these people were all too weak, and their physical bodies were too frail. They were simply not like the powerful experts who could come out like their master.

Filled with doubt, he followed Chen Qing toward the human race's Purple Wood Tribe.

Chen Qing followed the Zi Mu clan back to the Zi Mu tribe. At this time, the Zi Mu tribe was brightly lit, illuminating the world.

Torches stood there, guiding the people on their way home.

Because the Zimu clan had sent people back to the Zimu tribe to announce the arrival of a human sage, the people of the Zimu tribe were all waiting at the tribe's gate to welcome Chen Qing.

Upon seeing the return of the Purple Wood Clan, those who remained in the tribe all cheered.

Although the Zimu clan had sent someone back to inform them, the people were still uneasy because they had not been able to see it in person.

Now that I have seen Zimu lead the tribe's main force back, I finally feel much more at ease.

Every time the Zimu tribe goes out to hunt, there are always casualties, it's just a matter of how many.

If you're unlucky enough to encounter a powerful monster, the casualties will be enormous.

Those waiting in the tribe were secretly anxious, but they had no other choice but to wait.

Those who remained in the tribe were mostly elderly people, women, and children.

They have no fighting ability at all and cannot go hunting with the young and strong men of the tribe. If they go hunting with the strong men of the tribe, they will only hold them back, cause them trouble, and only increase casualties.

Now that the hunters have returned, their anxieties can finally be put at ease.

The Zimu clan invited Chen Qing to the tribe, and then the Puhuo Festival began.

The wild animals were placed on the fire and then roasted.

Zi Mu Shi sat down next to Chen Qing and began to explain to him the origins of their tribe and the glorious history of the human race.

This was exactly what Chen Qing wanted to hear, and it was also what Chen Qing had asked, which is why Zi Mu Shi began to explain.

"Sage Chen Qing, our human race has endured countless hardships since birth, and the suffering involved is immeasurable."

"Our human race has always believed in self-improvement, and now, in this primordial world, we have finally survived."

"Our three ancestors were Suiren, Youchao, and Ziyi."

"They invented fire, wooden houses, and animal clothing, respectively."

"Our ancestor Suiren invented fire. With fire, our human race no longer feared wild beasts, nor did we eat raw food."

Fire gave us warmth, safety, hope, light, and a future.

"Our ancestor Youchao invented wooden houses for us, so that our human race no longer has to live in caves."

"With the wooden houses, we humans no longer fear the wind and rain, and we have a warm place to live."

"The Ziyi clan invented animal clothing. With it, our human race no longer fears the cold, and our people no longer freeze to death."

"With the creations of generations of human ancestors, we now have stone tools, which allow us to fight against wild beasts and set traps for hunting."

"Although we humans are insignificant in this vast world, we are a race created by the Holy Mother Nuwa. The Supreme Sage established the Human Religion among us, and with the protection of the Supreme Sage, we have finally survived the perilous times."

"Today, our human race has grown strong, with hundreds of billions of members."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing was in high spirits and a smile appeared on his face.

"Indeed, our human race has survived in perilous circumstances while never forgetting to explore and develop. Future generations of humans should keep this in mind."

That night, Chen Qing and Zi Mushi had a very pleasant conversation.

The next day, Chen Qing walked around the Zimu tribe to investigate the lives of the people there.

In the days that followed, he lived a secluded life and rarely inquired about the affairs of the Purple Wood Tribe.

He only helps the Purplewood Tribe when someone is injured or encounters a difficult situation; otherwise, he has never done anything.

Humanity must rely on itself to develop.

Although he knows a lot, he will not help the Purple Wood Tribe.

If his help causes the people of the Purple Wood Tribe to lose their ambition, that would be counterproductive.

That stay lasted for ten years.

Over the course of ten years, he watched the Purple Wood Tribe grow and expand, and he smiled.

While the elderly grow old, newborns are born, and teenagers grow into strong men.

In this way, it is passed down from generation to generation.

Chen Qing glanced at the mirage dragon beside him and nodded in satisfaction.

Over the past decade, the mirage dragon's energy has become increasingly complete, reaching a point where it can break through at any time.

However, because he was actually inside the Purple Wood Tribe, he had the Mirage Dragon suppress his cultivation and prevent him from breaking through.

Over the past decade, he has secretly assisted the Zimu tribe on several occasions.

One time, not long after he arrived at the tribe, a member of the wolf demon clan, who was a Xuanxian cultivator, was imprisoned and killed by him in the dungeon.

With the death of this wolf demon at the Xuanxian realm, no more wolf clan members came.

Another time, it was a snake demon at the Golden Immortal level. I don't know how it got here. It was injured when it arrived.

Chen Qing did not hesitate to imprison and kill him in the cell, turning him into the purest primordial power.

On another occasion, a strange beast with three heads and nine tails appeared a hundred miles away from the Purple Wood Tribe and was killed by him.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and the Zimu Tribe has not changed much, but it has been developing steadily.

this day,

He stepped out of his house, looked at the people of the tribe, and then shook his head.

"Mirage Dragon, it's time for us to go."

Upon hearing Chen Qing's words, the mirage dragon, which had been lying on the ground, suddenly jumped up.

"Master, shall we leave now?"

Chen Qing nodded and looked at the Zimu tribe without saying a word.

"Master, we can finally leave. I'm tired of staying here for the past ten years."

"This time, I'm leaving to break through my own cultivation level and advance from the True Immortal realm to the Profound Immortal realm."

As the mirage dragon spoke, a glint of light appeared in its eyes.

Chen Qing did not heed what the mirage dragon said; he was truly leaving. The path of cultivation could not be relaxed in the slightest.

Now, after ten years in this tribe, it's about time.

He still needs to continue searching for suitable blessed lands and grottoes, where the great caves gather all the heavens and the world.

"Mirage Dragon, let's go, let's continue our journey through the primordial world."

After saying this, he took a step and was already outside the tribe.

Seeing Chen Qing use his supernatural powers to leave, the mirage dragon also leaped and followed Chen Qing.

The people of the Purple Wood Tribe did not notice Chen Qing's departure until a considerable amount of time had passed.

However, they discovered that Chen Qing had passed down a cultivation method before leaving, a method that could cultivate the mind to the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

Everyone was extremely grateful to Chen Qing for this method of cultivating the mind.

With this method of cultivating the mind, as long as their tribe succeeds in the cultivation, they will have the power to protect themselves in this primordial world.

Chen Qing embarked on his journey once again, accompanied by the mirage dragon.
