Chapter 129: Legendary Task! You... you are using this to entertain us?

"Ding! Suggestion received: Build the first city of the Great Desolation! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"

"Ding! Suggestion received: Determine the three sacrificial animals, six livestock, and five grains! Reward: One Rare Treasure Chest!"

"Ding! Suggestion received: Promote the Human Race to enter an agricultural civilization! Reward: One Legendary Treasure Chest!"

Three consecutive notifications arrived, instantly putting Lu Yun in a great mood!

Two Rare-level tasks and one Legendary-level task—it was well worth all the hard work he had put in!

Moreover, these tasks were very much in line with his intentions, instantly providing him with a guiding direction for what he needed to do next.

Just as Lu Yun was feeling pleased, he suddenly saw a group of Human Race children on an open space not far away, practicing martial arts under the guidance of several Human Race warriors.

These children were each incredibly earnest, and their martial practice looked quite decent; clearly, they had put in a lot of hard work.

It just so happened that when Lu Yun and his group passed by, this group of children finished a drill, but they did not disperse; instead, they sat down on the spot to rest.

Before long, another member of the Human Race stepped forward and actually led them in reciting the "Thousand Character Classic."

Clearly, this was the daily routine of the Human Race for studying literature and practicing martial arts.

They all cherished everything Lu Yun had taught them.

Lu Yun was naturally very satisfied with the results after his preaching.

But he also saw the shortcomings in the current situation of the Human Race: as their strength increased, the populous Human Race's demand for food was growing rapidly, and even though the range they could hunt had increased significantly, it was still difficult to satisfy.

Moreover, they were basically still only practicing what Lu Yun had taught them; there was no one pushing through the old to bring forth the new, let alone deducing further methods of cultivation.

Lu Yun silently noted all of this down, and without disturbing them, he continued walking forward with the somewhat apprehensive Duobao and the others.

Before long, Lu Yun and his group arrived at the central area of the tribe.

As the core of this new tribe, the management of all aspects here was naturally much stricter than elsewhere, and there were even many Human Race warriors standing guard and patrolling.

Lu Yun scanned the area and discovered that these Human Race warriors had basically all become immortals. Although most were only Human Immortals, it was already far stronger than the situation he had seen when he first arrived at the Zhushan Tribe! Among them, there were even many Zhushan Tribe warriors he had once crossed paths with, but their strength was no longer what it used to be.

Seeing the arrival of Lu Yun and his group, some of these warriors immediately stepped forward to ask about their identities and purpose.

However, before Lu Yun could answer, a member of the Human Race walked out from the tribe; it was none other than the Tribal Chief of the Zhushan Tribe, Dashan.

It turned out that before arriving here, Lu Yun had sensed Dashan's presence and had transmitted his voice to explain the situation, asking him to come and cooperate.

"Dashan pays respects to Immortal Elder Lu Wen!"

After Dashan arrived, he first solemnly bowed to Lu Yun, and then introduced him to the several Human Race warriors: "This is Immortal Elder Lu Wen, the envoy dispatched by our Saint Mother!"

The several Human Race warriors also immediately bowed respectfully to Lu Yun.

Duobao and the others secretly thought: This person is indeed someone under the Saint Nuwa! They suddenly felt a bit fortunate that they hadn't escalated the conflict earlier.

Lu Yun smiled and returned the bow to the warriors, saying: "Everyone, no need for such formalities. You still have patrols to do, so go about your business; let Dashan entertain me."

"Yes!"

The patrolling warriors left on their own.

Lu Yun looked at Duobao and the others again and said: "Everyone, please wait a moment; I need to attend to some matters first."

"Fellow Daoist, please go ahead!"

Duobao naturally had no objections and was thinking of taking advantage of Lu Yun's absence to quickly discuss with Zhao Gongming and the others how to deal with Lu Yun next. Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar brought Dashan into a grass hut within the tribe.

Lu Yun first cast a spell to isolate the grass hut from outside perception, then said to Dashan: "I am going to send you to a place now; there are some things I need to instruct you on."

Dashan already knew his identity, so naturally, he had no objections to this.

Thus, with a wave of his hand, Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar took him into the Map of Mountains and Rivers, where he met his true self.

Dashan was instantly excited and hurriedly bowed to Lu Yun again: "Dashan pays respects to Immortal Master Lu Yun!"

Lu Yun could now be said to be the actual teacher of the entire Human Race, but because Nuwa had not yet officially conferred the title, the various tribes of the Human Race did not dare to act on their own, and each simply addressed Lu Yun as Immortal Master out of respect.

Lu Yun waved his hand, and a burst of magic power helped Dashan up, saying: "No need for that! I brought you here this time because there are some things I need you to handle."

Dashan said with a serious face: "Immortal Master, please give your orders; Dashan will surely complete the task even if it costs me my life!"

Lu Yun smiled slightly and said: "No need to be so nervous; it's not a dangerous task, just asking you to help find some things."

Dashan couldn't help but feel curious: "I wonder, what things?"

"The three sacrificial animals, six livestock, and five grains!"

As Lu Yun said these words, he also manifested images of these items in front of Dashan.

Looking at these things, Dashan couldn't help but be stunned.

Because he had originally thought that what Lu Yun wanted to find would be some special items, but in reality, what he saw were several very ordinary things.

Especially those animals; he had even seen several of them with his own eyes, and had even eaten them.

As for those plants, he wasn't sure what Lu Yun wanted to use them for.

However, he did not ask further, only promising repeatedly that he would definitely find them!

Lu Yun gave him several Jade Slips directly, which recorded the images and information of these items, and told him to take people to help search for them.

After giving his instructions, Lu Yun said again: "Next, go and find the other tribal chiefs to come over as well; I need to entrust them with other tasks."

"Yes!"

Dashan respectfully accepted the order and was then sent back by Lu Yun.

When he reappeared in the grass hut, Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar was no longer there, leaving only an entrance to the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Dashan hurriedly followed Lu Yun's instructions to notify the other tribal chiefs to come, and after they entered the Map of Mountains and Rivers, he himself hurried off to find people to start searching for the things Lu Yun wanted.

For a time, many people of the Human Race in the tribe began to get busy.

Meanwhile, Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar greeted Duobao and the others and led them to sit down near a campfire in the tribe.

Since he had said he would entertain Duobao and the others, he would naturally do so earnestly.

Zhao Gongming and the others had originally been somewhat expectant, as they had long felt that the delicacies of the Human Race seemed to only reach their most perfect state when prepared by the Human Race! However, when Lu Yun took out the ingredients, they were all a bit dumbfounded.

"You... you are using this to entertain us?!"

Chang'er Dingguang Xian was almost driven mad with anger! Because what Lu Yun had taken out was none other than a giant rabbit leg that had just been severed from his own body!
