During the prehistoric times, the living environment was still extremely dangerous. Not only was the weather unpredictable, but there were also countless poisonous insects and ferocious beasts that threatened the survival of the human race. After determining the circulation and standard of money in the world, Shen Nong watched as his clansmen were constantly plagued by illness. He watched as his clansmen constantly used their lives to determine whether various animals and plants were edible, poisonous, and could be used.
Sick clansmen often meant the loss of life. Every poison often cost a few lives or more. For the sake of his clansmen, Shennong decided to taste all the herbs in the Untainted Land.
There were countless subjects and soldiers in the human race. How could they let the ruler personally take the risk? Therefore, the ministers of the human race tried to stop Shen Nong's actions, but he was unmoved.
After settling the matters of the clan, Shen Nong led a group of subjects and set off from Chen, heading towards the mountains in the northwest. Shen Nong had prepared two bags beside him. The left bag contained edible food, and the right bag contained poisonous food. They walked for a long time. Their legs were swollen and their feet were calloused, but they still kept walking. After walking for a total of 49 days, they arrived at a place. He saw mountains after mountains, valleys after valleys, and exotic flowers and plants growing on the mountains. He could smell the fragrance from afar.
Shennong and the others were walking forward when a group of wolves, insects, tigers, and leopards suddenly rushed out from the canyon and surrounded them. Shennong immediately ordered his subjects to wave their stone axes and spears at the wild beasts. After beating off a batch, another batch came. They fought for seven days and seven nights before they finally chased away all the wild beasts. Those tigers, leopards, and pythons had been injured by the stone axes and spears, and later, they became stripes on their skin.
At this time, the subjects said that it was too dangerous here and advised Shennong to go back. Shen Nong shook his head and said,"I can't go back!" There's no cure for the people in the world. There's no cure for poisoning. How can we go back!”As he spoke, he led the way into the canyon and arrived at the foot of a vast mountain.
Half of the mountain was stuck in the clouds, and there were knife-cut cliffs on all sides. Waterfalls hung on the cliffs, and moss grew on them. It was smooth and slippery. It seemed that one could not walk up without a ladder to the sky. The subjects advised him to forget it and go back as soon as possible. "No!" Shen Nong shook his head. There's no cure for the people in the world. There's no cure for poisoning. How can we go back!”
He stood on a small stone mountain, facing the tall mountain. He looked up, down, left, and right, trying to think of a way. Later, people called the small mountain peak he was standing on "Wangnong Pavilion".
Then, he saw a few golden monkeys crawling over along the ancient vines hanging high in the sky and the rotten wood lying horizontally on the cliff. Shennong had an idea. He had it! He immediately called his subjects over and told them to cut wooden poles and vines to build a shelf against the cliff. They built one layer a day, from spring to summer, from autumn to winter. No matter if it was windy or rainy, or if it was snowing or freezing, they never stopped working. It took a whole year to reach the top of the mountain after building three hundred and sixty floors.
This was the origin of Shennongjia.
On the mountain, during the day, Shen Nong led his subjects to the mountain to taste all kinds of herbs. At night, he asked his subjects to start a bonfire. He recorded it in detail under the light of the fire. Which grass was bitter, which was hot, which was cold, which could fill hunger, which could cure illness, it was all written clearly.
Once, when he put a blade of grass into his mouth to taste, the world spun and he fell down. The subjects hurriedly helped him sit up. He knew that he had been poisoned, but he could no longer speak. He could only use his last bit of strength to point at a red lingzhi grass in front of him and then at his mouth.
The subjects hurriedly put the Red Lingzhi into their mouths and chewed, feeding it to him. Shennong ate the lingzhi grass and the poisonous gas was dispelled. He no longer felt dizzy and could speak. From then on, people said that the lingzhi grass could bring the dead back to life. The subjects were worried that it was too dangerous for him to taste the grass like this, so they advised him to go back down the mountain. He shook his head again. There's no cure for the people in the world. There's no cure for poisoning. How can we go back!”After saying that, he continued to taste the herbs.
Shen Nong put himself in danger all the time because he tasted hundreds of herbs. One day, he saw a small grass with yellow flowers. The calyx was moving. He was curious and put the leaf in his mouth to chew slowly. After a while, he felt very uncomfortable in his stomach, and his intestines broke apart one by one.
Just as Shennong was in unbearable pain and his subjects were helpless, a tall and thin Taoist appeared in front of them. His face was as sharp as a knife, his nose was straight, his mouth was square, and his eyebrows were long. He wore a golden crown and a red Taoist robe. Everyone recognized him as Master Xuandu, a disciple of the Sect Master of Humanity, Sage Taiqing, who had appeared at the Human Tribe's Heaven Worship Ceremony.
Master Xuandu took out two pills and stuffed them into Shen Nong's mouth. In a moment, Shen Nong's abdominal pain disappeared and the poison of the Gut Severing Grass was cured.
Shen Nong stood up and bowed to Master Xuandu to express his gratitude.""Lie Shan is a human who can identify all kinds of herbs. Although he won't regret it even if he dies, I'm afraid he won't be able to complete this great task.”
Looking at Lie Shan's determined expression, even Master Xuandu could not help but feel touched." As expected of the Human Race's ruler, the Human Emperor.”
Lifting his eyes, Master Xuandu said seriously,""This is a matter that benefits the people.”As he spoke, Great Wizard Xuandu took out something from his bosom and handed it to Lie Shan."This item was refined by Cult Master for you. It's called the Ochre Whip. You can use this item to identify the medicinal properties of a hundred herbs by touching them.”
"Thank you, Cult Master." Shennong took the brown whip and bowed to the Thirty-three Heavens to thank Laozi.
After Shennong tasted the flowers and plants on one mountain, he went to another mountain to taste them. He still used wooden poles to climb up. After tasting it for 49 days, they had traveled through the surrounding mountains and ridges. He had tasted 365 different herbs.
After Shen Nong tasted all the herbs and found some herbs for the Human Tribe, he was ready to go back down the mountain. He looked around and saw that the wooden shelves that had been built all over the mountain had disappeared. It turned out that the wooden poles that were used to build the frame had taken root and sprouted in the rain. Over the years, they had actually grown into a vast forest.
Shen Nong was in a difficult position when Master Xuandu floated over once again and protected Shen Nong and the few subjects who followed him up the mountain, allowing them to descend the mountain.
In order to commemorate Shennong's achievements in tasting hundreds of herbs and benefiting the world, the common people named the vast forest where Shennong tasted hundreds of herbs "Shennongjia".
After Shen Nong returned to the tribe, he returned to his tent and began to organize his knowledge of tasting hundreds of herbs over the years. After two years, Shen Nong finally completed the first medical skill in the Wilderness: Shen Nong's Herbal Classic.
When Shen Nong was studying the Hundred Herbs Scripture at home, he could not help but neglect his family. Shen Nong had a daughter named Jingwa, who was the Shen Nong's favorite, but she was also very sensible. When he saw that his father was busy, he did not disturb him and only played with the children in the tribe. One day, Jingwa went out to play and saw an older child riding the child like a horse. The child was tired and climbed down, but the older child still refused to give up.
Jingwei walked over and pointed at the older child's head, angrily rebuking,""You're too shameless. What's so good about bullying a child?”
The older child saw that Jingwei was a little girl, born thin and weak, and did not put her in his eyes at all. He jumped down from the child's back and walked in front of Jing Wei, saying,""I am the Third Prince of the Dragon King of the East Sea. Who are you? How dare you control me!"
"What's so great about being the son of the Dragon King? I'm also the daughter of the Human Tribe's Master, Shennong."”
When the Third Prince of Dragon King heard that Jingwei was the daughter of the Human Race's Master, he realized that he was indeed no match for Jingwei on land. He glared at Jingwei and left.
A few days later, Jing Wei went swimming in the sea and was having a great time. He happened to be discovered by the Third Prince of the Dragon King. He swam over and said to the elite guard," That day on land, you bullied me. Today, you ran to the East China Sea. Let's see how arrogant you are. Hurry up and admit your mistake. Otherwise, I'll make waves and drown you."”
Jingwei stubbornly said,"I'm not wrong. Why should I admit my mistake?"”Seeing that the elite guard was stubborn and had no intention of admitting defeat, the Third Prince immediately stirred up the sea and set off a strong wind and waves. The elite guard was drowned before he could struggle.
After Jingwei died, he became a bird with red claws and white beak, determined to fill the sea. She used her mouth to pick up stones and branches and threw them into the sea. She let out a cry of Jingwei, Jingwei, as if to motivate herself. She never stopped, year after year, month after month. The Dragon Crown Prince didn't know that this matter had already caused karma for himself, and he would have to pay it back in the future.
When Shen Nong received his daughter's death, he could not help but be extremely sad. In his grief, he handed over the affairs of the human race to his subordinates to deal with, and he devoted himself to practicing the Hundred Herbs Scripture in his tent.
There was a large tribe in the north of Untainted Land, which was made up of nine tribes, namely, Qiyi, Yuyi, Fangyi, Huangyi, Baiyi, Chiyi, Xuanyi, Fengyi, and Yangyi. They were collectively called Jiuli or Jiuyi. Under each tribe, there were nine clans, totaling 81. They had a prosperous population and great strength. Not long after You Xiong Xuanyuan was born, Jiuli also had a son who weighed 17 pounds. He could only speak at the age of seven and changed his name to Chiyou. He was now 13 years old and twenty feet tall. He did not worship the heaven and earth, the Three Pure Sages, or the Taoism of the world. He was born with a great power and could tear tigers and leopards apart with his bare hands as if they were child's play. He was fierce and evil, and even the beasts of Untainted Land dared not provoke him. Such bravery, clan leader Li Wei has always valued him, intended to make him Cai Ying candidate.
Who was this Chiyou? In his previous life, he was one of the few Senior Sorcerers of the Wu Tribe below the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery. During the great war between the Sorcerer Tribe and the Demon Tribe in the Heavenly Court, he was killed by a group of demons. However, he was an exception. Other Wu Tribe members, even the Senior Sorcerers, would lose their true spirits after death. He was the only one who could go to the Six Paths of Reincarnation to be reincarnated. Now that he had become a human, he had gained wisdom at the age of seven and understood everything about his previous life. How could he be a lonely person? Although he had been planning for years and it was not difficult for him to succeed the position of the Nine Li Tribe's Patriarch, it was a great regret in his life when he thought about the decline of the Wu Tribe. After thinking about it, he decided to gather the rest of the Wu Tribe to strengthen the Nine Li Tribe. Then, he would fight and conquer the Human Tribe in Untainted Land. The Wu Tribe could certainly rise again and occupy the high position of the Human Tribe. Wouldn't it be better for him to dominate the position of the Human Emperor?
One day, Chiyou said goodbye to Li Wei, saying that he was looking for a powerful man to help Jiuli, so he went to the Ancestral Witch Palace in Luzhou, North.
At this moment, most of the remaining elites of the Wu Tribe in the Untainted Land were gathered in the North Province. There were Senior Magi Xing Tian, Xiang Liu, Nine Phoenix, River Master, and Rain Earl guarding the Ancestral Magus Palace. On the North Province, although the Ancestors of Sorcery were no longer around, the temples of the various Ancestors of Sorcery were still burning. However, among the hundreds of thousands of Wu people who had survived the Sorcerer and Demon Tribulation, which one of them was not an elite general? Therefore, even if the humans were to rise up, they wouldn't dare to attack. Although it was declining, it was still peaceful.
Chi You was naturally familiar with the way to the Ancestral Magus Palace. He did not need anyone to pass him to him, so he took a remote path and went straight to the mountainside. Among the Senior Magi, he was the closest to Xing Tian. There was a huge house here, and it was where Xing Tian lived.
When Chi You was about half a mile away from the house, a 300-foot-tall giant man rushed out. His gong-sized eyes widened and he shouted,"Brother Chiyou!"
Chi You laughed out loud and strode forward, replying,""I changed my appearance, but you still recognize me.”It turned out that the Wu Tribe did not practice any cultivation techniques, but they were born with telepathy. When fighting, it was like an instinct. When facing the Wu Tribe, they could sense each other. Although Chi You's body was human, his True Spirit had not changed. Xing Tian had already discovered him from afar.
That day, Xing Tian saw that Chi You was besieged by several demon gods and thought that he was going to die. However, his real spirit flew out. He didn't know how to calculate, so he couldn't understand the secret. Today, seeing that Chi You could reincarnate into the human race, he was naturally happy and said,""Brother, you're blessed by the heavens to be able to walk through this great Primordial World.”Then he led Chiyou into the house.
After entering, Chi You smiled and said," Brother, you don't know this. I have some power in the human race. I think the position of the clan leader won't escape from me."”
"As expected, there will be good fortune after surviving a great disaster," Xing Tian praised.”"What can humans do?" he sighed after a pause. It's a pity that our Wu Tribe was so powerful back then. If we hadn't fought with the Demon Tribe and suffered a great loss, how could this weak tribe have risen? And now, the mighty Sorcerer Tribe can only recuperate in this barren North Province. I hate it!”
Hearing his words, Chi You said,""Brother, don't be anxious. I have a way to restore seventy percent of our Shaman Tribe's former glory.”
"Tell me quickly what you can do," Xing Tian asked.”
Chiyou said," Jiuli is the largest tribe of the Human Tribe in Untainted Land. It is only a matter of time before I take over the position of the tribe leader. If the Wu Tribe brothers and sisters come to Jiuli and help me annex the tribes and unify the Human Tribe in Untainted Land, I will become the Human Sovereign and the Wu Tribe will rise to power. How about that?"“
Xing Tian pondered for a moment and said," It's just that when Shen Nong ascended the throne, it was the Taiqing Saint who issued the edict. Although we have a reputation for bravery, we really can't fight against the Saint.”
Chi You said," Of course, I know that. But I've reincarnated as a human now. I'm only fighting with them for the position of the Human Ruler. This is a matter of the Human Tribe. How can a Saint be so shameless as to take action personally?" As for that Shennong, we only need to defeat and annex his tribe. We won't hurt his life. It can be considered as giving face to the saint. What do you think, brother?”
Seeing that Xing Tian was still considering, he said,""Back then, wherever the Sorcerer Tribe went, there were only chickens and dogs, dead branches and rotten wood. Now that the Saints have not appeared, how can the mighty Great Sorcerers be afraid of those Earth Immortal Realm cultivators?”
As expected, Xing Tian couldn't take it anymore and said loudly,""Brother, why do you say that? When I tell Xiang Liu and the others, they will come to help you.”
Chi You slapped the table and shouted,""This is my heroic Sorcerer Tribe man!”
After the discussion, the two of them went to Xiang Liu, Nine Phoenix, He Shi, Yu Bo and other Senior Sorcerers for a discussion. The Wu Tribe was bloodthirsty and warlike. They were forced to stay here. The other Senior Sorcerers were not willing to accept this, so it was not difficult to persuade them.
Seven days later, Chiyou brought Xing Tian, Xiang Liu, and more than ten other shamans back to the tribe. The shamans all said that they admired Chiyou's bravery and followed him here. The entire Jiuli tribe was shocked.
Jiuli tribe's leader, Li Meng, was upright and heroic. He had always had prestige, but he was also a person who lacked strategy and wisdom. He only thought that the tribe had received strong help and that their strength had increased. He did not think about inviting a wolf into the house. After this incident, he thought that Chiyou, who could subdue the rest of the Wu Tribe, was the God's will and the ruler of the Nine Li. Therefore, in less than a year, he would abdicate the throne and let Chiyou take over the power.
In fact, it was right for the Jiuli Tribe Chief Li Meng not to think too much about it. Speaking of which, these Jiuli Tribe people could be considered shamans. Back then, the Ancestors of Sorcery were killed and their corpses fell from the Heavenly Court. Xiao Sheng saw the corpse of the Ancestor of Sorcery Di Jiang and took a part of the blood essence of the Ancestor of Sorcery. When the other Ancestors of Sorcery died, their blood essence would be absorbed by the Untainted Land, and in the future, countless Wu people would be born.
The Nine Li Clan was in the north of the Wilderness, where the Ancestral Sorcerer Xuan Ming had died.
The reincarnated Chiyou was not just a brave and ruthless person. After more than 20 years of life, he was already quite scheming. At that time, the Nine Li Tribe had a lot of people who sought the Tao. The tribe was no different from other tribes. They worshipped the Three Pure Sages, the Holy Mother of the Human Tribe, Goddess Nvywa, and the immortals of the Heavenly Court, although there was a vacancy. It was true that the Great Shaman was powerful, but he was an outsider after all. If he forcefully fought for power and profit, even if he succeeded, it would only hurt the vitality of Jiuli.
The Wu Tribe had yet to gain a stable foothold, so Chiyou was not in a hurry to start a war with Shennong and the others. He only sent the elites of the Wu Tribe who were constantly joining the tribe to lead the Jiuli Tribe to sweep and annex the surrounding tribes. This Great Wu had amazing combat power. Those who followed him would prosper, and those who rebelled would die. It was like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves, expanding the population of Jiuli. With these achievements, Chiyou gradually raised the status of the Wu Tribe, and the power of the 81 families of Jiuli gradually fell into the hands of the Great Wu. Decades later, Jiuli mainly plundered and fought, and labor and harvest were secondary. Their sphere of influence was actually above the sphere of influence under the control of Shennong, who cultivated the Hundred Herbs Scripture in seclusion. Moreover, their clansmen were good at fighting and were unusually fierce. These shamans and clan leaders were known as the 81 brothers of Chiyou.
Chiyou, the Chieftain of the Nine Li Tribe, was not idle either. In the past decades, the Earth Immortal Realm itinerant cultivators of the Nine Li Tribe had mysteriously disappeared from time to time. No one knew if they were dead or alive, and no one had heard from them. The mastermind was naturally Xing Tian and the other Senior Sorcerers who had come to the Nine Li Tribe to seek refuge. Xing Tian, Xiang Liu, and the others didn't do this just to weaken the Nine Li cultivators so that the Wu Tribe could dominate. The main reason was for Chiyou's plan to refine the demonic saber Hu Xiao.
Originally, the Wu Tribe was not good at refining weapons. Although they had some powerful witchcraft, they always dominated the world with their physical bodies. Chi You was different. When he was reincarnated, he walked in the Six Paths of Reincarnation and accidentally got a bit of the remaining True Spirit of Goddess Houtu. In this life, he became intelligent and figured out the method of refining demonic treasures. The simple Twelve Divine Beings Killing Formation was injected into the weapon. It was extremely difficult to refine this weapon. It had to be based on the blood essence of the Wu people, taint the Primordial Spirit of the cultivator, and refine twelve beads of Wu blood to form the Divine Beings Killing Formation. For example, Chi You was holding this saber against his enemy. The area within ten thousand miles was filled with blood mist. The smell of blood would make anyone dizzy and fall to the ground. No matter if you were a high immortal, you would not be able to distinguish north, south, east, west, front, back, left, or right. Once you were stained by the blood mist, your magic weapon and Primordial Spirit would be tainted. Instead, it was absorbed by the saber, increasing its power. The power of the beads was great, but it was not easy to make twelve beads. He did not lack the Sorcerer Blood, but each bead required eight-thousand and one hundred primordial spirits at the Return to Void Stage or above. It was indeed time-consuming and laborious.
When Jiuli conquered the surrounding tribes, Xing Tian and the other Great Sorcerers would wantonly hunt and kill cultivators. When they were in a good mood, they would release their true spirits to the Six Paths of Reincarnation. If they were in a bad mood, they would not even give them a chance to reincarnate. When the tribe was idle, they would seize the opportunity to kill the Nine Li cultivators. Although they were careful not to kill too many at once, a small number of them still sensed that something was wrong and fled back to the mountain gate to avoid the disaster. Of course, the targets of Xing Tian and the others were cultivators from small sects or itinerant cultivators without sects. As for those related to the Chan and Jie Sects and the Saints, they would never provoke them.
After dozens of years, the Jiuli people had become the most powerful people in the world. However, the cultivators and Qi Refiners had almost disappeared. The Wu Tribe had occupied a high position, and the tribes believed in the Wu Sect and worshipped ghosts and gods. They were the complete opposite of the You Xiong Alliance. The border between the two was clear, and they rarely communicated with each other. At that time, more than half of the Sorcerer Blood God Refining Pearl had been refined, and the chaos of the Chaos Era gradually appeared again.
"What is this?" While Chi You was refining the Sorcerer Blood-refined Divine Pearl, Xiao Sheng, who was refining the divine light in Wuyi Mountain, suddenly opened his eyes.
Feeling the magic power in his body rolling, it was impossible for Xiao Sheng to meditate and refine the divine light. At this time, Xiao Sheng, who was sitting on the stone bed, was very puzzled. Ever since he came to the Wilderness, he had not contacted anyone, which made Xiao Sheng unable to explain the abnormality on his body.
Putting away the divine light that had not been refined, Xiao Sheng picked up the staff and went straight to the north of the Wilderness according to the senses in his body.
"Why is it this thing?" He looked at the tribe in front of him. A fierce cold wind blew, and clouds flew miserably. Xiao Sheng frowned. Looking at the strong warriors in the tribe, he felt his blood boiling. How could Xiao Sheng not know that Chiyou, the Great Shaman, had reincarnated into the Human Tribe? And Chiyou's refinement of the Tiger Roaring Demonic Saber had caused Xiao Sheng, who was hundreds of millions of miles away, to sense it.
Of course, Xiao Sheng could sense it because he had refined the 13 drops of blood essence. Looking at the tribe in front of him, Xiao Sheng was secretly happy."This is a great merit. If I can eliminate this human calamity, the merit I obtain will definitely be able to kill the Good Separation.”
Thinking of this, Xiao Sheng concealed his aura and sneaked into the Jiuli tribe.
