Chapter 771 - Yan Wu’s Invitation, An Immortal Is Teaching?
“Gruesome indeed…” Greenie shook his head upon witnessing Chu Kuangren squashing the god’s head open.
The other god trembled in fear as he watched his comrades fall.
Chu Kuangren did not bat an eye at him.
With a flicker of his mind power, the Absolute Freeze Technique was unleashed.
The god was reduced to a ground of shattered ice.
With Chu Kuangren’s current abilities, it would be an easy feat to slay several gods in an instant.
After that, he stored the divine fragments in his inventory.
These divine fragments contained a large amount of power, which Chu Kuangren considered a crucial resource to open up the river of time.
The successive killing of two Greater Gods had long shocked the Flame Bulwark Tribe people so badly that they did not dare to move.
The beasts were trembling uncontrollably, and their ferocious qi quickly dissipated. They were as obedient as puppies and kittens.
Chu Kuangren stared at the beasts and retrieved his Emperor Thought.
However, the beasts did not flee. They were certain that as long as Chu Kuangren desired, their lives would be gone anytime.
“Go and guard the door.”
Chu Kuangren said lightly.
Guard the door?
The people of Flame Bulwark Tribe were incredulous.
These were some of the most notorious beasts in the region!
Did Chu Kuangren undermine them as mere guard dogs?!
The beasts, too, felt humiliated.
Was he joking around? They were considered the most ferocious beasts around. Yet, they were now instructed to guard the doors. How could they tolerate such disrespect?!
“What’s it now? Are you refusing to go?”
Chu Kuangren said calmly.
“No, not at all. Guarding the door is my favorite activity.”
“Of course, look at the size of me. I was made to guard the door.”
The ferocious beasts stammered and immediately stationed themselves at various corners of the Flame Bulwark Tribe’s entrances. Needless to say, their sudden arrival petrified the tribe’s guards immensely.
Yan Wu took a deep breath and walked up to Chu Kuangren. “Daoist brother, thank you for getting us out of this crisis. On behalf of my tribe, I can’t thank you enough for your contribution. From here onwards, you’ll be regarded as the most distinguished guest of our tribe.”
“You’re too kind, Tribe Leader.”
Under Yan Wu’s invitation, Chu Kuangren and Greenie took a rest at one of the corners of the Flame Bulwark Tribe’s base. It was a great opportunity for them to observe the situation around this area.
…
“Master, please take me as your student.”
A big, girthy brute knelt before Chu Kuangren.
The brute was one of the first warriors of the Flame Bulwark Tribe. His cultivation was only second to Yan Wu and was on par with that of Greenie.
His abilities had made him a popular figure within the Flame Bulwark Tribe.
Atu, the brute, had once sworn that he would protect this tribe to the best of his abilities.
However, when the ferocious beasts attacked and he witnessed the powers of the gods, the brute realized just how insignificant his power truly was.
That was why he decided to seek Chu Kuangren as his mentor.
Chu Kuangren shook his head.
Atu grew nervous seeing Chu Kuangren shaking his head. “Master, do you think I’m too dumb to be taught?”
“That’s not the case. I’m more than happy to teach you my skills, but there’s no need to regard me as your mentor.”
“Thank you, Master.”
Atu was overjoyed.
At that moment, Yan Wu entered the scene.
He was curious to see Atu kneeling on the ground. “What’s going on, Atu? Have you made Bro Cang unhappy?”
After several days of interaction, Chu Kuangren had bonded considerably with Yan Wu, who now addressed Chu Kuangren as his Bro Cang.
“It’s not that. I was hoping to seek guidance from our Master Cang.”
“Stop fooling around. Bro Cang is a conjurer. There’s a fundamental difference between mind power and refining qi. How can he help you?” Yan Wu admonished.
“Ah.” Atu was stunned as he was not aware of such a thing. “But Master Cang said that he can teach me.”
“From what I understand, a person can’t train in mind power without the Conjurer’s Talent,” said Yan Wu.
“Although I can’t teach him the usage of mind power, I do know a thing or two about refining qi.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Yan Wu looked suspiciously at Chu Kuangren. “But why do I not sense an ounce of refining qi aura from your body?”
“I’ve never cultivated it.”
Chu Kuangren answered nonchalantly.
Yan Wu’s lips twitched.
How could a person who had never cultivated refining qi understand what it was?
This…
Did Bro Cang know what he was talking about?
Would he impart tonnes of misleading information to his student?
“Who said that one must refine qi to know what it is about?” Chu Kuangren grinned. As a person who hailed from the future, his experience far surpassed the cultivators of this era.
To address Yan Wu’s doubt, Chu Kuangren initiated a formal discussion about all there was to know about refining qi. His knowledge certainly shocked Yan Wu, to say the least.
“What a surprise, Bro Cang. I didn’t think you’d be so proficient both in the art of refining qi, as well as mind power.”
Yan Wu exclaimed in awe.
He then said solemnly to Chu Kuangren, “Bro Cang, I’ve been trying to promote the art of refining qi to my tribe recently. Since you’re so familiar with this topic, you’d be of great help. I hope you’ll consider staying here for longer.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled lightly and said, “Now that I’ve killed the gods, aren’t you afraid that the other gods would come for revenge and wreak havoc upon your entire tribe?”
Yan Wu was visibly troubled for a moment before he settled down. “Refining qi is the only way humanity can survive on its own. Instead of living under perpetual oppression by the gods, I’m willing to take the risk!”
“Will you regret your decision?”
“Not making use of your extraordinary talents would be a far more painful regret.”
“Coincidently, I was just thinking of sharing my knowledge with other people as well. Since you’re willing to take this risk, I shall gladly oblige.”
Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
To overthrow the rulings of the gods was not a feat that could be achieved by one man.
Humanity needed to grow stronger.
Chu Kuangren needed all of humanity to become stronger, not just himself.
As such, he intended to pass down his knowledge to make a portion of humanity stronger, thus introducing a selection of skills that would be passed down from one generation to another.
After a few days of observation, Chu Kuangren decided there was no better place to start than the Flame Bulwark Tribe.
Soon.
The cultivators of the Flame Bulwark Tribe gathered.
Chu Kuangren planned to explain the concept of Dao to them. Although their cultivation was lacking, they still possessed decent insights into the ways of Dao.
“What does cultivation mean?”
“To cultivate means to refine qi and the spiritual powers in our surroundings…”
As Chu Kuangren began to impart the concept of Dao, waves of Daoist Rhymes began to manifest.
Suddenly, as if the Heavenly Dao was resonating with Chu Kuangren’s lecture, it shook in its wake.
On that eventful day, the entire Flame Bulwark Tribe was engulfed within Chu Kuangren’s Daoist Rhymes. Golden lotuses blossomed throughout the sky, prosperous clouds lowered from the firmament, while dragons and phoenixes manifested in the realm. Countless Daoist Transformations were formed during the course of Chu Kuangren’s lecture.
“Bro Cang, you’re so powerful!”
Yan Wu gulped as he watched Chu Kuangren bathing in the glorious lights of Heavenly Dao. He was stunned.
The cultivators of Flame Bulwark Tribe were bewildered at the sight as well. In fact, many cultivators from nearby settlements flocked to the Flame Bulwark Tribe after witnessing the conjurations. They came to know that someone was explaining the ways of Dao in their territory.
It was exciting news.
After all, during the immemorial times, the only entity who was capable of invoking such levels of transformation during their explanation of Dao was an Immortal who hailed beyond the heavens. That incident alone had lifted the cultivation of Firmament Star’s civilization to another level.
Could it be that another Immortal had arrived in the Flame Bulwark Tribe?!
With that, many human cultivators flocked towards Flame Bulwark Tribe for a chance to listen to an apparent Immortal’s teachings.
The incident had riled up not only many humans. Even the gods were shocked by the news.
