I really became a king.

Chapter 296: Become the Master of All Ages
It was still the same village, but the atmosphere was completely different.

A few days ago, because of the ogre, the whole village was in an atmosphere of fear and despair, but now, it is filled with singing and laughter everywhere.

Young children played and chased each other in groups in the village; sixty-year-old men squatted peacefully against the wall to bask in the sun; young and strong men, both men and women, were busy moving around, making final preparations for the tribal ceremony in a few days.

Everyone's face was filled with happy smiles, and all this was unimaginable before.

Because it was a wild village before, even when it was not discovered by the ogres, it was still in fear all day long. After all, without the protection of the tribe, it was in danger of destruction at any time.

And now, even though the tribe has not been formally established, there is no need to worry, because there is a strongest person at the peak of the eighth level of martial arts in the village.

Even though the tribe has not yet been established, the safety factor is much higher than that of some large human cities.

The courtyard where Chaisang originally lived, along with the jujube tree, had all been burned down, and replaced by a few simple wooden houses.

This is Jiang Yi’s temporary residence. Although it is located on the edge of the village, it has now become the center of the entire village.

"Master, these are matters related to the tribal founding ceremony. Master, please see if there are any that need to be modified?" Xu Heng said cautiously to Jiang Yi who was sitting on the armchair.

Jiang Yi took it, took a look at it, and said, "Let's keep everything simple, including sending out invitations." According to his thoughts, the establishment of the tribe should be carried out quietly, without even a celebration.

However, considering the feelings of these indigenous people, the celebration was not cancelled in the end, but it was only a celebration within the village and no guests would be invited to watch the ceremony.

After all, the Yinshan Realm is still too unfamiliar to Jiang Yi. Although there is a tribal alliance, it is better to do everything quietly.

"In addition, the teleportation array will be closed during the celebration." Jiang Yi said again.

"Yes." Xu Heng had no objection. After responding, he waited there quietly to see if Jiang Yi had any other instructions.

Jiang Yi did not speak immediately, but thought of something, pondered for a moment, and asked: "In Yinshan Realm, every village has a school?"

These past few days, he carefully toured the entire village and discovered that there was actually a school, and a very large one. Children from toddlers who could just walk to teenagers aged thirteen or fourteen all studied and read in the school.

Xu Heng didn't seem to expect why Jiang Yi suddenly asked this, and nodded: "Yes, my lord, every village in Yinshan Realm has its own school. Those large tribes have several schools, and they will even hire knowledgeable scholars as lecturers at a high price."

Jiang Yi nodded and said casually, "It seems that in this Yinshan world, studying is very important."

Xu Heng didn't think too much about it, and subconsciously said, "That's natural, because we all understand the importance of reading for enlightenment, especially for martial arts. The same martial arts method may lead to different insights due to different people's opinions, but the prerequisite is that there must be sufficient knowledge."

Jiang Yi seemed to be interested and asked, "Is there any precedent for this?"

"Yes, take our village for example, there are two teenagers who practiced the same ordinary fire-attributed martial arts technique, but they comprehended different mysteries. Although it is the lowest level technique, their future paths will definitely be completely different."

"The probability of this happening is very low, right?" Although Jiang Yi believed that the probability of this happening was very low, it shouldn't be that high.

Xu Heng was silent for a while, then said, "How should I put it? The probability is indeed not high, but it is not as rare as I imagined."

"Take us humans for example. This kind of thing has happened in many large tribes. Some people even comprehend and deduce a lowest-level technique step by step, and forcibly deduce it into a high-level technique."

Jiang Yi glanced at the Hundred Ghosts Venerables who were also present. The Hundred Ghosts Venerables naturally understood the meaning of his glance, and they were all in a complex emotion that was difficult to describe.

Xu Heng did not notice the subtle communication between Jiang Yi and the others, and continued to sigh: "This is still among us humans. It is said that those foreign races with ancestral heritage pay more attention to knowledge and background, and therefore many talented people are born."

"Take the dog-headed people for example. It is said that their clan's unique martial art, 'The Heavenly Dog Swallows the Sun', was created by a teenager back then. It took only a hundred years for him to comprehend it and turned it into the clan's treasure book..."

Xu Heng's face was full of regret, and he continued: "Moreover, those foreign races that have inherited the ancestral land, the literary sect is unique, turning the tide, and is on par with the martial arts and immortal ways."

"In this Yinshan Realm, many human sages have explored it, but none of them succeeded. So there is a rumor that humans have lost their ancestral land and their foundation, and they will never be able to rebuild their culture like the alien races... Even the immortal sect is limited by its foundation, so only a few can set foot there..."

Jiang Yi already had a rough understanding of this. In this Yinshan Realm, there were countless human warriors, but only a few who could practice the way of immortality.

From this point of view, the human foundation of the Manghuang Continent is indeed much stronger than that of the Yinshan Realm. At least it has given birth to secular sects that are capable of competing on par with secular martial arts.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the house, followed by a slightly excited voice saying, "Your Majesty, Mr. Wen has come to our village."

Jiang Yi and the others didn't react to this, because they had no idea who this Mr. Wen was. However, Xu Heng, who was originally immersed in inexplicable sadness, suddenly stood up with an inexplicable look of excitement.

Seeing the puzzled expressions of Jiang Yi and the others, Xu Heng explained: "My Lord, this Mr. Wen is a great sage of the human race in my Yinshan Realm. My Lord may as well go and meet him..."

Jiang Yi did not refuse and followed Xu Heng out.

On the way, Jiang Yi learned about the life of Mr. Wen from Xu Heng, and felt extremely grateful in his heart. He truly deserved the title of a great sage of mankind!

Mr. Wen, whose real name is Wen Da, has been well-read since childhood and can be described as a genius. At the age of seven, he awakened his martial veins and entered the first realm, at the age of eight, the second realm, at the age of eleven, the third realm, at the age of thirteen, the fourth realm, and at the age of fifteen, the fifth realm...

With this kind of talent, even if he were placed in the wild continent, he would definitely crush all the chosen ones, including Jiang Yi himself.

But after entering the fifth realm at the age of fifteen, he met the alien Wen Zong practitioner for the first time. Although he won, he was shocked by the great power of Han Hao displayed by Wen Zong.

He was even more saddened that humans had no chance to practice Wen Zong's way of cultivation, so he made a decision that shocked everyone.

He gave up his martial arts training and from then on he was isolated from martial arts, devoting all his energy to the practice of Wen Zong.

Since then, the human beings in the Yinshan Realm have lost a great martial arts master, but gained a "Ruzi Niu" who is willing to submit.

For more than two hundred years, he has been alone, but his footprints have been all over the human settlements in the Yinshan Mountains. Wherever he goes, he teaches and answers questions in the local schools, spreading the seeds of reading.

It can be said that he spent his entire life wandering in the sea of ​​books and learning, writing books, preaching and answering questions, sowing countless seeds of reading for the people of Yinshan Realm, and making the literary style of the people of Yinshan Realm flourish.

It was also during these two hundred years that human martial arts flourished in the Yinshan Realm, and many human geniuses emerged and created their own martial arts traditions. All of this was due to Wen Da's efforts.

He was also revered as a "great sage" by all the tribes of mankind. Although he was "powerless" all his life, he was always a guest of honor wherever he went, and even many martial arts masters were willing to accompany him and protect him. Jiang Yi followed Xu Heng to the village school, which was also the most spacious and brightest building in the entire village.

At this time, the school was already crowded with people inside and outside, from toddlers to elderly people with staggering bodies, almost all the villagers had come.

Gathered inside and outside the school, they listened attentively to the voice in the classroom. At this moment, even the wind stopped. The whole village was silent about the rustling of leaves, the chirping of cicadas and birds, but only this voice.

It was not as eloquent as imagined, nor did it have the mysterious sound of Buddhism. The voice was plain and ordinary, just like an ordinary old man telling his life story, so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary.

The voice was even a little soft, but every word and sentence was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears, as gentle and comfortable as a spring breeze on the face.

Jiang Yi didn't make any movements or say anything, he just stood quietly on the edge of the crowd, looking at the simple and ordinary figure who looked like an old man at home.

Especially when listening to the other person's casual conversation, I felt a peace I had never felt before in my heart, but also a deep sadness.

Because this will be the last class of this "great sage of mankind"...

Jiang Yineng could sense that the other party's time had come.

Not only Jiang Yi felt it, but many people including Xu Heng, Venerable Baigui and others also noticed it, including several followers who had escorted him all the way to this village. At this time, they all pursed their lips and tried their best to control their emotions.

The great sage is about to die, and heaven and earth mourn together... At some point, the sky that was originally sunny turned gray.

The mountains and rivers were silent, the sun and the moon were dimming, and the whole world was filled with an inexplicable sorrow.

"I have devoted my life to creating a prosperous era for human culture, but unfortunately, over two hundred years have passed without any achievements..."

It seemed that he had finished his last lesson. Mr. Wen turned the topic to himself. Although his face was full of wrinkles, he gave people a feeling of peace and clarity.

"Some time ago, I felt that my time had come, but I had spent my entire life in vain, and I felt ashamed of my ancestors. I was going to find a dark cave to end my life, but suddenly I felt something in my heart, so I found this place..."

Wen Da spoke in a leisurely manner as if he was chatting about daily life. His clear and bright eyes looked over thousands of villagers and fell on Jiang Yi.

"It turns out that a noble person has come here. From now on, the human race in Yinshan Realm has one more tribe, which is a blessing for mankind."

"It's a pity that my time has come and I won't be able to see this prosperous era. But I can't come empty-handed. I should give you a gift."

"Here contains all the knowledge I have learned in my life. If you don't mind, please consider it as a gift for the tribal ceremony..." Wen Da held a ring in his hand and gestured from a distance.

Seeing that the great sage was about to fall, Jiang Yi felt sad. Under the silent gaze of thousands of people at the scene, he walked forward. Wherever he passed, everyone automatically made way for him.

"The great sage is leaving. I am incompetent and can only watch him leave on his final journey..."

Walking up to the other person, Jiang Yi bowed deeply and took the ring with both hands. This was the first time in his past and present life that he called himself "boy".

In front of this person, he also felt for the first time how ordinary and insignificant he was, with only a feeling of looking up at the distant mountains. He had tried to use all the magic pills he carried with him to see if he could win back the other person.

But there was a voice in the dark telling him that the great sage was about to leave and no external force could stop him.

"Your Excellency may wish to take a look at my gift and see if you like it." Wen Da said with a smile.

Jiang Yi immersed his mind in the ring, and saw that the hundreds of square meters of space were filled with bookshelves. Apart from books, there was nothing else, not even personal belongings such as a change of clothes.

The fragrance of books and ink touched the heart of everyone who heard it. Jiang Yi bowed deeply again: "What you have done, sir, should be a teacher for mankind for all eternity!"

Wen Da's already clear and bright eyes suddenly lit up, and he murmured the four words "Teacher of All Ages" in a low voice, as if he had finally found his final destination.

"It's a pity that I can't witness your tribal ceremony in person. Until then, I can only congratulate you from afar..."

At the end of his speech, Wen Da's voice became softer and softer, and it was even a little unclear at the end. It was obvious that his time was up.

At this moment, a light drizzle began to fall from the gloomy sky, as if indicating something.

In this situation, Jiang Yi couldn't help but feel sad and made a decision in his heart.

He turned around, faced the thousands of villagers present, and announced in a serious tone: "Today, I am establishing a new tribe here, and the name of the tribe is [Taimang]!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, and a mini mansion flew out from his palm, shining with brilliance and alluring, passing over thousands of villagers and landing with a bang on the open space in the center of the village.

At the same time, a mysterious force descended over the entire village. The archway at the entrance of the village disappeared, and was replaced by a rock.

The rocks are pitch black all over, ten meters high, forming a mountain of their own, exuding the majesty of a hundred thousand mountains.

"Please, Master, write a name for our tribe!" Jiang Yi turned around and bowed deeply to Wen Da again.

Wen Da's eyes, which had lost their luster, suddenly burst into dazzling light, and he laughed loudly: "Good, good, good!"

"With tribes like these, there is hope for the prosperity of mankind!"

After saying this, he raised his right hand tremblingly, and with the last bit of strength in his body, he wrote the word "Taimang" in the air. Although he was gesturing in the air, his strokes were graceful and powerful.

And the moment he finished writing the two big words "Taimang", the two big words "Taimang" suddenly appeared on the black stone at the entrance of the village. There was no flamboyant writing, but the charm was restrained.

At this moment, Wen Da's arms fell down with a bang. He still had a peaceful smile on his face, but he passed away without a sound.

The originally gray drizzle in the sky suddenly turned into a heavy rain, and a faint cry of grief was heard above the place where all humans gathered.
