Chapter 109: Xuan Yuan Seeks Help from All Sides

  Wuji brought Can Tong to the outside of the bamboo building, saw Liu Mei waiting outside and said: "Sister, don't worry, I've already understood the whole situation. As for Xuan Yuan's matter, there's no need to rush. Since this is my plan, I naturally anticipated some of the difficulties he would face. Xuan Yuan's performance still has some shortcomings, after all, he is not yet mature. How can the affairs of the human tribe rely on others? If things go on like this and are not corrected, he will not be worthy of becoming a Human Emperor. The ancestral teachings of the human tribe 'the human tribe should strive for self-improvement' how can they encounter some obstacles and ask for help from others?"

  Liu Mei heard Wuji's words and after a moment of contemplation, had to admit that what Wuji said was reasonable. Xuan Yuan is indeed not a qualified emperor at present. As his teacher, he has not done a good job in educating him.

  However, as Xuan Yuan's only disciple, he couldn't bear to see him continue down the wrong path, so he secretly left a message on Xuan Yuan's transmission talisman that read "The human race must strive for self-improvement without ceasing." After that, he no longer interfered with Xuan Yuan's affairs.

  Wuji saw the situation at this time and indeed understood that he should go out for a walk. Wuji called the three women, except Feng Qiu who was in seclusion, to come forward. Wuji said: "At this time, Liu Mei's disciple Xuan Yuan and the reincarnation of Zu Shen's body are about to start a great battle, and the war between humans and demons is not far away. This time, I will go to Jin Ao Island, and you can also follow."

  Xiao Xiao was overjoyed to hear that she could finally go out and have fun openly, as the few of them were now extremely missing their close friend San Jie sisters. It had been tens of thousands of years since they last saw each other.

  Wuji then sat on the back of the Yellow Cow, heading towards Jinhai Island. Although Jinhai Island is said to be a neighbor of Penglai Fairy Island, the distance between them is still tens of millions of miles apart. Even with the Yellow Cow's pace, it took half a day to reach Jinhai Island.

  On the Golden Turtle Island, the Patriarch of Tongtian was lecturing on the altar, surrounded by his disciples in layers, with an estimated number of no less than four to five thousand cultivators under his tutelage. It can be said that this is indeed the largest sect in the world.

  Tongtian Sect Master, although he opened up the Upper Clear Heaven in the Primordial Chaos, still occasionally returned to Jīn áo Island to sit down and preach to his thousands of disciples. When Tongtian Sect Master first entered Jīn áo Island, he discovered Wújí's group, plus Wújí did not hide his own aura.

  Tongtian's ancestor nodded towards Wuji and then continued to lecture on the Great Way. Wuji didn't interrupt either, finding a corner with Liu Mei and others to listen to Tongtian's ancestor lecturing on the Great Way.

  Fifty years later, the founder of Tongtian Sect finished his lecture and his disciples dispersed. The founder of Tongtian Sect led Wuji to Shangqing Palace. Wuji told the founder of Tongtian Sect about his intentions.

  Tongtian Sect's founder, as a sage, naturally knew about the events of the human tribe. It was just a matter of whether he paid attention or not. At this moment, he received a reminder from Wuji and instantly understood the beginning and end of the situation. In Tongtian Sect's founder's view, his disciples might have shown mercy to the demon tribe because they were of the same kind, but when it came to the Tiandi Witch Tribe, there was no such consideration. Tongtian Sect's founder believed that with his disciples joining in, the Great War between humans and witches would inevitably end in a holy victory for the human tribe.

  Tongtian Jiaozu then called out to Duobao and instructed him, "Duobao, at this time under the heavenly path, the human race's prosperous momentum has already taken shape. However, the witch and demon tribes are not yet aligned with heaven's will and still stubbornly resist. From today on, lead your fellow disciples to await Wuji's orders at any moment, assist the Human Emperor, accumulate heavenly merit and human destiny."

  Duobao Daoist heard the order of Tongtian Sect Master and said: "Disciple Duobao has received the decree." After Duobao finished paying respects to Tongtian Sect Master, he also faced Wuji Daoist and said: "Duobao has seen Senior Brother Wuji. In the future, please take care of me more often. This time it was entirely due to Senior Brother's order, Junior Brother will not delay."

  Wuji saw Duo Bao's cleverness and bowed his head to himself, naturally he wouldn't make it difficult for Duo Bao. Wuji said: "Duo Bao Shidi is too modest, as the eldest disciple of Jie Jiao, you handle all matters big and small, and in this action, Jie Jiao will naturally follow your command, but I hope you will prioritize the overall situation of the human race."

  Wuji had just settled the matter of Jie Teaching and hadn't yet set off for Kunlun Mountain's Yu Xugong when he heard that a disciple of Jie Teaching reported that the twelve Golden Immortals of Tian Teaching, led by Guang Chengzi, came to pay respects to the founder of Tongtian Teaching.

  Wuji and Tongtian's ancestors were clear, but the meeting with Tongtian's ancestor was fake. In reality, they were waiting for Wuji's instructions. After a moment, the twelve golden immortals arrived in front of Tongtian's ancestor under Guangchengzi's leadership.

  The twelve people first paid homage to the founder of Tongtian, and then turned to Wuji Dao: "Brother Wuji, when we came here, our teacher instructed that from now on, all matters concerning the human race will be arranged by Brother Wuji. We are at your disposal at any time."

  The personnel sent by the Expanse Sect have arrived, but they saved themselves a trip to the Jade Void Palace. The Unbounded saw that there were still some days before the great war, and rather than letting these people wait in vain, it would be better to pay them some compensation first and help them improve their cultivation at the same time.

  Wuji asked Tongtian Sect Master to come up with a requirement for the debate, and Tongtian Sect Master naturally agreed happily. After all, the ones who benefited the most were still his own disciples sitting below him, so he let this be his home turf, where his own disciples were the majority.

  Wuji and Tongtian Shengren's discussion on the Tao, Wuji however heard some things that were not in Tongtian's great Tao before, Wuji realized that Tongtian Shengren had indeed refined the Qiankun Ding and obtained the great Tao contained within.

  Just as Wuji and Tongtian Shengren were discussing the Tao, Xuan Yuan from the Bear Tribe suddenly remembered a message left by his teacher Liu Mei: "The human race must strive to be strong and unyielding." It was like a sudden enlightenment, and he woke up instantly.

  Xuanyuan realized that he was indeed too dependent on external things, and at this time, even the original bottlenecks that had not been broken through had a slight relaxation. After Xuanyuan understood this principle, he made up his mind and decided not to seek help from others easily unless absolutely necessary.

  Although the Sanqingmen did not come to help Xuan Yuan, other tribes of the human race still sent their elite warriors under the command of Suiren's three people to help the Youxiong tribe. However, they had to withdraw the dispatched elite warriors soon after.

  Originally, the rapid rise of the Bear Tribe and the Jiuli Tribe naturally shocked the intelligence department of the demon tribe. Although they didn't pay much attention at first, as the war between the two tribes escalated, the strength displayed by the two major tribes made the head of the intelligence department have to take it seriously. He immediately submitted all relevant intelligence in his hands to the Western Emperor Fuxi and the Demon Master Kunpeng of the demon tribe.

  Fuxi was originally good at performing heavenly calculations, and now with the intelligence of the two major tribes as a clue, he obtained a lot of information from Tianzhi. The Human Emperor is about to emerge, and Xuan Yuan of the Youxiong tribe and Chi You of the Jiuli tribe are the most promising figures.

  However, Fuxi discovered that Chiyou was actually the reincarnation of Zu, the ancestor of the Wu tribe, during his performance. Fuxi informed Youshi Kunpeng and Youhou Xihe about the information he had obtained, and invited the survivors of the Ten Great Demons of the Demon Clan to the Lingxiao Treasure Hall for a joint discussion on how to handle this matter.

  Whether Xuan Yuan or Chi You becomes the Human Emperor, it's not good news for the Demon Clan. However, after weighing the pros and cons, the best thing the Demon Clan can do now is to maintain a delicate balance between the two major tribes, delaying the emergence of the Human Emperor.

  After the Demon Clan Heavenly Court's general policy towards the current situation in the Primordial Wilderness came out, the remaining things became much simpler. Starting with this general policy, an action plan was formulated. Since the Nine Li tribe was weak at first, a large number of demons were arranged near the intersection of human and demon powers, but it took a lot of time to implement when the agreement was reached.

  The Jiuli tribe has already turned the tide with the help of the Wu tribe's infiltration, and is now in a dominant position. However, just as the human tribe was providing strong support to the You Xiong tribe, the demon tribe's move had to focus the human tribe's attention on the demon tribe, preventing them from taking any action.

  The elite of the human tribe entered the You Xiong tribe and left quickly, which made Xuan Yuan somewhat unacceptable. However, even as the leader of the You Xiong tribe, he had to obey the interests and safety of the entire human tribe.

  The silent departure of the human tribe increased the pressure on Xuan Yuan, who was facing the Jiuli tribe. The situation between the two tribes had completely reversed from before, with the Jiuli tribe pressing down on the Youxiong tribe, which retreated in defeat.

  During a forced retreat, Xuan Yuan and his men entered a large array of the Wu tribe. The surrounding area was shrouded in fog, making it impossible to see more than tens of meters away. Even with divine insight, they couldn't penetrate beyond 100 meters. Xuan Yuan's army was blocked by the array, and Wuji had to lead them in a hasty retreat from the battlefield. They were also constantly at risk of being surrounded and annihilated by the Jiuli tribe.

  The surrounding fog spread, causing Xuan Yuan's army to lose its direction. Xuan Yuan hurriedly asked Ying Long, Chang Xian, Da Hong, Li Mu and Feng Hou for a strategy. Everyone was at a loss, except for Feng Hou who had a calm expression.

  "After the wind, he stood in front of Xuan Yuan and said: 'Leader, why does the Big Dipper in the sky rotate but its handle doesn't? I've heard that someone found a kind of magnetic stone while smelting copper, which can attract iron. Can we make something that points to directions based on the principle of the Big Dipper, so we won't get lost?"

  Xuanyuan and the generals present heard Feng Hou's idea, discussed it, and thought it was a good plan. Then, under Feng Hou's design, everyone worked together to make an instrument that could indicate direction. After a day and night of hard work, they finally created a device that could guide directions. Feng Hou installed it on a war chariot, with a dummy figure pointing south. He then told all the troops that during battle, if they were surrounded by thick fog, as long as they looked at the direction the dummy figure was pointing, they could immediately tell east, west, north and south.

  Xuanyuan finally broke through and returned to the Youxiong tribe after creating the South Pointing Chariot.
