Primordial Era: Exceptional Comprehension, Destroying Buzhou Mountain at the Start

Chapter 394 Spiritual Treasure Creation Stone, Establishing the Martial Arts System

"Actually, there are other ways to quickly increase the population and manpower." Wu Meiniang suddenly thought of something, then pondered, "Speaking of which, during my recent travels with Suzhen, I saw many human races outside the Nine Provinces. I also learned that while many of these independent human races do not acknowledge their human identity and even call themselves 'satisfied,' quite a few still respect themselves as human and constantly yearn to return to the human Nine Provinces."

"If these humans can come together, they can definitely solve the problem of insufficient population in a short period of time."

Di Xiao frowned upon hearing this. He was actually aware of what Wu Meiniang was saying and had even considered the issue himself. However, these were outsiders who were not the people of the Nine Provinces. Who knew if there might be spies among them?

Di Xiao pondered, but found it difficult to make a decision.

As Di Xiao pondered, Wu Meiniang smiled and tugged at him, saying, "Husband, don't think about it now. I can sense Su Zhen's presence; it seems she's arrived."

"Suzhen? Bai Suzhen, why is she here?" Di Xiao couldn't help but be puzzled by Bai Suzhen's sudden arrival.

Before Di Xiao could think further, Bai Suzhen had already arrived. And it wasn't just Bai Suzhen; Zhao Ling'er and Xiao Qing also came.

Bai Suzhen, still dressed in a white dress, gentle and dignified, flew down and gave a slight bow; "Fellow Daoist Di Xiao, it's been a long time."

Her words remained gentle, yet her eyes were filled with an indescribable emotion. Back then, Di Xiao and Bai Suzhen had shared many experiences. Especially Bai Suzhen, who watched Di Xiao gradually create new crops to save humanity from disaster, ultimately saving countless lives.

Especially when she thought about how Di Xiao had created a new type of grain, she couldn't help but feel a little shy when she excitedly hugged her.

Di Xiao, having anticipated this scene, smiled slightly: "Fellow Daoist Su Zhen, it's been a long time. I wonder what brings you here this time..."

"I have come here for two reasons. First, to follow my master's orders and come to the human race to help and participate in this war against the demon race to hone myself. Second, I also want to come and help Fellow Daoist Di Xiao. After all, the new grain varieties that Fellow Daoist created back then have brought Su Zhen a lot of merit." When Bai Su Zhen mentioned the merit, she couldn't help but feel grateful.

"So that's how it is! Haha... Welcome, welcome..." Di Xiao naturally welcomed Bai Suzhen's help.

Upon hearing this, Bai Suzhen and Di Xiao went into the military tent together and talked about what had happened over the years.

In her words, Bai Suzhen further mentioned, "Fellow Daoist Di Xiao, this war between the human and demon races has evolved into a testing ground, attracting disciples from many powerful forces to participate. However, among these disciples, some are helping the human race, while others are helping the demon race. Therefore, Fellow Daoist Di Xiao, you should prepare in advance."

The southern border of the Nine Provinces of Humanity.

As Di Xiao stood amidst the fighting army, listening to Bai Suzhen's story, his eyes gradually revealed a different kind of brilliance.

"Interesting. I didn't expect this war between humans and demons to attract so many forces!" Di Xiao sneered, not finding it strange that the major powers of the prehistoric world had sent disciples to participate in this war.

Since the First Emperor and the demon race established the rules of this war, this war between humans and demons has evolved into a war of trial and training.

Although cultivation in the primordial world is not like that in fantasy novels, where one needs to rely on constant battles to improve oneself, many cultivators even choose to go into seclusion when faced with major calamities.

However, relying solely on arduous cultivation and comprehension of the Great Dao is ultimately too slow a path to advancement. Joining a faction to wage war, while incurring losses along the way, also allows one to grow stronger. Furthermore, one can leverage war to seize resources and further enhance oneself.

Especially for cultivators below the Great Luo realm, it is definitely a good choice to accelerate their self-improvement.

Therefore, Di Xiao was not surprised by the idea of ​​these major powers sending their disciples to participate in this battle.

However, as Bai Suzhen said, among the disciples of many powerful forces, some will choose to help the demon race, while others will choose to join the human race. This will inevitably lead to some unnecessary conflicts.

Di Xiao's deep eyes were filled with a hint of solemnity: "Su Zhen, are you aware of the choices made by the disciples of the major powers today?"

"That's a bit difficult. After all, there seem to be very few major powers in the prehistoric world, but each major power has many powerful figures and a large number of disciples. It's really hard to decide how to choose among these disciples. Some major powers have cultivators who are on good terms with the demon race, or are even of demon race origin themselves, so their disciples will inevitably help the demon race."

"Some are on good terms with the human race and will naturally choose to help them. However, I estimate that there will be more cultivators helping the human race. After all, the human race is numerous and has produced countless outstanding disciples over the years, who have joined various major forces. The influence brought by the human race will inevitably lead many cultivators to choose the human race as their disciples."

"Of course, I, representing the disciples under the command of the Old Mother of Lishan, am all prepared to assist the human race."

Su Zhen's expression was sincere, and when she spoke of this, she looked at Di Xiao with a trusting gaze.

Upon hearing this, Di Xiao smiled and said, "Of course you're welcome. Unfortunately, since I began cultivating, I've never left the Nine Provinces of the Human Race, and I'm not very familiar with the disciples of the various major powers. So I'll have to trouble Su Zhen with a matter of course. I hope you can help me contact some disciples of the major powers and do your best to help my Human Race, or rather, me."

"Don't worry. I'll try to get some familiar fellow Daoists to come." Bai Suzhen agreed to Di Xiao's request without hesitation.

Di Xiao smiled but didn't say much. He exchanged a glance with Bai Suzhen, and everything was understood without words.

In the blink of an eye, several years have passed.

Over the years, the fighting army has developed well. In particular, the problem of manpower, which was Di Xiao's biggest concern, was quickly resolved.

The solution still relies on the human race's own reproduction. Originally, Emperor Xiao possessed a reproduction pool that could accelerate the human race's reproduction. However, after Bai Suzhen arrived and learned of Emperor Xiao's intentions, she directly communicated with Zhao Ling'er and borrowed a primordial spiritual treasure—the Creation Stone—from Zhao Ling'er's Nuwa clan.

This innate spiritual treasure is said to originate from the Nuwa Palace and contains the power of creation and reproduction. Relying on this treasure, one can enhance the speed and quality of human reproduction.

Relying on this fossil-forming technology, the population of the southern border counties increased dozens of times in just a few years. This exaggerated rate of reproduction resulted in the birth of countless children. And these children, due to the effects of the fossil-forming technology, also had their physical attributes improved.

Such a change made Di Xiao envious. If the human race possessed such a spiritual treasure, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the overall aptitude of the human race. Unfortunately, this treasure belonged to the Nuwa clan, and it was rumored to be an innate spiritual treasure refined by the Goddess Nuwa herself using the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, the Three Lights Divine Water, and the divine artifacts used to create humankind. It was extremely rare.
