Chapter 6: Obtaining the Precious Sword

  Ashan walked into the cave, looking at a jade seal surrounded by soft treasure light, and the call in his heart became even stronger. Ashan knew that in this wonderful world of Honghuang, everyone's feelings were very mysterious, especially those of cultivators, which were extremely important. Believing it was possible that some opportunity would beckon to you, not believing might cause you to miss a great opportunity.

  When Ah Shan caught the Jade Seal floating in mid-air with his hands, a message came from the Jade Seal that made Ah Shan extremely excited. This was the Human Clan's Spirit Treasure that suppressed the Qi Luck - Kongtong Seal, which was born with the Human Clan and is now just an ordinary Innate Spirit Treasure. When the Human Clan rises to greatness, it will be promoted to a top-grade Innate Spirit Treasure, with the ability to suppress Qi Luck not inferior to the Innate Supreme Treasure. More importantly, after the Human Clan rises to greatness, the master of Kongtong Seal can have some say in the entire Human Clan and even get a share of the Human Clan's Qi Luck.

  Ashan knew that in the later generations, the six saints were limited by their own destiny to make all sorts of calculations and finally obtained the human tribe's destiny. However, they still had to worry about being robbed by other saints. Among the six saints, only Nüwa created humans, Laozi established teachings for humans to become saints, and each saint got a fixed layer of destiny. Moreover, when the six saints became saints, they all revolved around humans to establish their teachings, so the destiny of many saints was connected with that of humans, and each saint also obtained half a layer of human destiny.

  This adds up to the fact that Laozi, Shengren and Nüwa Niangniang each have one and a half layers of human destiny, plus the remaining Yuanshi Shengren, Tongtian Shengren, Jieyin Shengren, and Zhunti Shengren each having half a layer of human destiny. Together they make up five layers, and the remaining five layers are the target of competition among all saints.

  At this time, Ashan possessed the Kuiyue Seal, which meant that he would have a vast and prosperous fortune in the future. How could this not make him extremely excited? Afraid of being discovered by others, Ashan immediately put it into his own small world to isolate their probing.

  Ashan looked around and saw nothing of value, so he hastily left the cave, picked up the long-dead snake, and walked steadily towards the outside of the valley.

  After walking out of the valley for about a thousand meters, Ah Shan met his hunting team searching for him. Following them to the gathering place of the hunting team, everyone saw the big snake that Ah Shan was carrying and cheered excitedly.

  Ashan handed the big snake over to others for handling, and saw his mother's furrowed brow due to his disappearance, as well as her relaxed brow upon seeing him return safely. Ashan hastily told his mother about this trip, omitting only the part where he obtained the Kongtong Seal.

  Mother A Ying heard the process told by A Shan, also shocked, and then proud of her own child for being able to kill with one hand.

  Aying saw that today's harvest was quite good, and since the sun in the sky had already slanted to the west, looking like it was about to get dark, she ordered everyone to pack up and prepare to return to the tribe.

  Ashan returned to his tribe and went back to his thatched hut for cultivation, in order to consolidate his realm. After Ashan operated the Nine Turns of Yuan Gong for several weeks, his realm was consolidated. Then Ashan began to recall today's battle process, summarize combat experience, find out where he was insufficient today, so as not to make the same mistake next time.

  Time slipped away in such a carefree manner, and a night of cultivation allowed Ashan to apply his strength with even greater ease, his combat power having received a certain degree of enhancement.

  Afterwards, Ah Shan continued his daily routine of following the tribe's hunting party into the mountains every morning to hunt, and returning to his thatched hut at night to continue practicing the Nine Turns Primordial Merit.

  Two years have passed, and Ashan is now 15 years old. Ashan remembered the method used by everyone to deal with Dashen was single-minded and dangerous, but ineffective. So he taught the tribe how to make bows and arrows, which were then spread continuously through the tribes, spreading throughout the entire nation.

  Ashan's strength, after two years of time, following the tribe's hunting team to hunt, often fighting with beasts and actual combat, his strength has made great progress and reached the late stage of the Shaman realm. Now, when encountering the giant snake again, Ashan can easily destroy it without having to try so many means, calculating various advantageous opportunities and geographical advantages.

  Mother Ayin has established absolute prestige and authority in the tribe, and is also a great name among neighboring tribes. The number of people from surrounding tribes who come to rely on the tribe is countless, with a population increase of over 3,000 people, and its strength has doubled compared to two years ago.

  The food reserves in the tribe are even more abundant, and even if several thousand people come, there will be enough grain reserves for half a year. The entire tribe will no longer starve to death due to hunger. Under the benign cycle of continuous population growth and increasing grain production, I believe that within ten years, the population of the tribe will definitely break through tens of thousands and become a medium-sized tribe among many tribes, no longer a small tribe drifting with the wind.

  Ah Shan did not know that a great opportunity was about to befall him.

  In the vast expanse of the Kunlun Mountains, within a thatched cottage, Taichu Daoren Li Er, who appeared to be an elderly man, awakened from his meditative state. Ever since Nüwa created humanity and became a saint, Taichu had been feeling unwell at ease in his heart. As a female cultivator, Nüwa was his junior sister, yet she achieved sainthood before him, despite being the eldest of the Three Pure Ones, the greatest disciple of the Xuanmen School, and having far surpassed Nüwa's own cultivation. Even with Taichu cutting off all emotions, he couldn't help but feel a heavy pressure. After congratulating Nüwa on her ascension to sainthood, he returned to Kunlun, bringing the Primordial Heavenly Vessel with him, and entered closed-door meditation once more.

  On this day, the Taiqing Taoist left the pass, because he felt that something related to his own destiny was connected to his own sanctification, so the Taiqing Taoist left the pass and traveled through the vast wilderness, searching for his own destiny.
