Transmigrating to the Primordial Era as a Peerless Great Witch, Changing Fate in the Primordial Worl

Wu Gu's gaze swept over everyone, and he began to analyze in detail: "First, regarding survival and cultivation, it is true that all members of my Wu clan have given birth to primordial spirits, and can breathe in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like ordinary cultivators. However, the foundation of my Wu clan lies in the supreme physique, in the dual cultivation of body and spirit in the 'Nine Revolutions of Pangu.' Every cell of our clan's sons is like a furnace, and every drop of blood contains divine energy. The demand for energy and the requirements for physical tempering resources are ten times, a hundred times, or even a thousand times greater than those cultivators who specialize in cultivating primordial spirits."

Wu Gu pointed at a top-tier shaman with a powerful aura: "You should all consider yourselves. The spiritual energy an ordinary cultivator absorbs in a hundred years may not even equal what you expend to temper your physical body once through practicing your cultivation techniques. If my Wu clan were to cultivate by slowly absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth like other clans, even if the spiritual energy of Buzhou Mountain were abundant, our progress would be extremely slow. In the long run, while our Wu clan's top combat strength might maintain its cultivation speed, the growth of our middle and lower-level clansmen would lag far behind those clans that specialize in the primordial spirit and can quickly absorb spiritual energy. This imbalance is not a sustainable solution."

Upon hearing this, everyone's minds were shaken. They were used to their own powerful consumption and rapid progress, but they had never compared it from the perspective of the entire race and long-term competition.

The elder brother pointed, and suddenly realized, "Yes, the cultivation of the Witch Clan is too resource-intensive; relying solely on absorbing spiritual energy is probably not enough."

Wu Gu continued, "Secondly, regarding reproduction, the union of Yin and Yang naturally leads to reproduction, which is indeed the great way. However, the bloodline of our Wu clan is extraordinary. The nourishment from the mother's body, the essence of the father's sperm and mother's blood, and the resources required for the embryo's growth are far beyond those of ordinary races. Without sufficient resources, blind reproduction will not only drag down the mother's cultivation but may also result in offspring with congenital deficiencies, weakening our clan's bloodline. This is by no means an exaggeration."

Even Zhu Rong and Gong Gong abandoned their relaxed expressions and realized the seriousness of the problem.

Survival and reproduction both point to the same key resource: a massive, continuous, and unique resource that is perfectly suited to the physique of the Wu tribe.

Seeing the solemn and thoughtful expressions on everyone's faces, Wugu knew that the time was almost right.

"Therefore, the way for our Wu tribe to survive and develop must not be simply copied from other tribes. We must forge our own path to becoming a strong tribe."

He glanced at Zhu Rong, Gong Gong, Shebi Shi and others and slowly said, "For example, Zhu Rong is an expert in cooking. He uses the essence of all spirits and earth fire and heavenly materials to make 'spiritual dishes' that are not only delicious, but also greatly replenish qi and blood, stimulate bloodline growth and accelerate cultivation."

"Gonggong was skilled at brewing 'spiritual wine' using spiritual springs, rare fruits, and even some mild essences of heaven and earth. It could also nourish the meridians, strengthen qi and blood, and enhance magical power, making it extremely effective for cultivation."

"Shebishi studied alchemy and refined the 'Qi and Blood Pill,' which can directly replenish one's essence and even help break through bottlenecks."

Wu Gu concluded, "These delicacies, spirit wines, elixirs, and even the 'witch artifacts' that may be needed in the future to strengthen the physical body are all indispensable 'cultivation resources' for our Wu clan. If we endlessly demand from the primordial world, the primordial world itself may not be able to withstand it. Therefore, the ability to obtain, manage, distribute, and even create these resources will directly determine the development speed and upper limit of our Wu clan."

What my Wu tribe needs is a stable, efficient, and sustainable "resource production system" to support our unique cultivation path and the propagation of our bloodline.

Beneath the bitter bamboo, all was silent. The eyes of the more than one hundred core members of the Wu tribe shifted from initial confusion to contemplation, and finally to a moment of sudden realization and clarity.

The elder brother's words were like the sun breaking through the clouds, pointing them in the right direction and making them realize the heavy responsibility on their shoulders and the direction they needed to work towards in the future.

Wu Gu's voice echoed beneath the bitter bamboo, clearly dissecting the greatest potential crisis facing the Wu tribe: the contradiction between resource extraction and the support of heaven and earth.

These words resounded like thunder in the minds of more than a hundred core clansmen, instantly shattering the slight sense of relief they had just felt from "finding their direction," and replacing it with a deeper sense of contemplation and awe.

The Wu tribe are no ordinary beings; each one is a colossal beast that consumes vast amounts of resources. If they only care about the present and endlessly plunder the primordial world for food, elixirs, and minerals, they may become powerful for a time, but what about in the future, after countless eons?

The entanglement of cause and effect, the self-generated karma, and the desolation of heaven and earth—isn't this following the old path of the three races and even ferocious beasts plundering heaven and earth? Isn't this contrary to their original intention of repairing the earth's veins and protecting the heaven and earth created by the Father God?

Just as everyone was frowning and pondering a solution, Wu Gu's voice rang out again, casting two bright beams of light through the fog of thought, calm yet firm:

"Therefore, we must change our way of life from 'takers' to 'creators' and 'managers.' I have two methods to break this deadlock and establish an unshakeable foundation for our witch clan."

Wugu looked at Jumang, Houtu, and all the tribespeople who were connected to life, the earth, and the plants:

"The first is the art of cultivation. There are countless spiritual roots in the primordial world, each with its own use. Our Wu tribe need not harvest them all, thus exhausting our resources. We can order our tribesmen, who are skilled in the creation of life and the nourishment of the earth, to cultivate 'medicinal fields' and 'spiritual gardens' in places with abundant spiritual energy and fertile soil. We can then use the method of grafting spiritual roots to cultivate various innate and acquired spiritual roots."

For example, one could transplant the Vermilion Fruit Tree, which bears spiritual fruits of qi and blood, into a Wu Earth spiritual field, and graft it with a branch of Yi Wood vitality using the method of spiritual root grafting. This would allow its fruits to contain the essence of both wood and earth attributes, making them easier to absorb. Alternatively, one could graft the Mind-Clearing Tea Tree, which can calm the mind, onto the Iron Bone Vine, which can temper the body, to cultivate a new type of tea soup that has the effect of both nourishing the primordial spirit and strengthening the muscles and bones.

If, in time, my Wu tribe could have tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of such meticulously managed medicinal fields and spiritual gardens, the annual production of spiritual fruits, spiritual herbs, and spiritual tea would be an astronomical figure.

This is sufficient to supply the needs of alchemy, brewing, and cooking, enabling our people to be self-sufficient in basic resources and greatly reducing our dependence on external wild resources. This is the way to long-term survival and also an act of conforming to heaven and earth and giving back to nature.

Wugu's gaze swept over the crowd, especially those ancestral witches with rich hunting experience:

"Secondly, there is the art of animal husbandry. Although hunting is direct, it is not a long-term solution and involves too much killing. Our clan can raise those ancient beasts, ferocious beasts, and even sea monsters that are physically strong but have low intelligence and reproduce quickly within designated areas. We will designate pastures and waters and assign special people to guard them, using specific witchcraft to promote their growth and reproduction but restrict their intelligence."

They regularly harvest the most prized parts, such as the paws of black bears, the blood of black tortoises, and the tentacles of giant octopuses. These materials, after special processing, can be used to cook supreme spiritual dishes, brew exquisite elixirs, and even be used in medicine and alchemy. This provides a stable and controllable supply of high-quality blood food while greatly reducing the indiscriminate hunting of creatures from the primordial wilderness, thus minimizing unnecessary bloodshed and karmic consequences with the world. This is also a sustainable development strategy.”
