Chapter 167: The Disciples of the Three Teachings Are Fighting to Build Cities

Over the next month, Lu Yun and his companions flew across vast plains, crossed towering mountains, and traversed boundless rivers.

Along the way, Lu Yun carefully observed the terrain and landscapes of the Great Desolation, as well as the climate and environment of each region.

He discovered that the Primordial Land was indeed incomparably vast and magical, possessing every kind of terrain and landscape, and many places contained rich spiritual energy and resources.

There were many areas that were very suitable for the Human Race to build cities and develop agriculture.

Of course, they also encountered some dangerous places, such as deep mountains and old forests where fierce beasts roamed, and barren deserts ravaged by harsh weather.

These places were naturally unsuitable for the Human Race to inhabit.

Lu Yun kept all of this in his heart, preparing to plan in detail after returning.

Just like that, they flew and stopped along the way, taking nearly a month to finally arrive at a Human Tribe one hundred thousand miles away from Yuan City.

This tribe was not small in scale, with several thousand people, but their living conditions were very difficult.

They lived in simple grass huts, wore rough animal skins, and ate wild fruits and meat obtained from hunting.

This made the Xihe sisters, who had just come out of Yuan City, feel somewhat unaccustomed to it all at once.

Nuwa, however, knew that this was the environment in which most of the Human Race in the Great Desolation lived today.

Even, if not for the fact that Lu Yun had previously passed down the two cultivation methods of Literature Dao and Martial Dao, most of the Human Race in the Great Desolation would still be in a state of starvation and lacking proper clothing.

Now, at least they already had the strength to be well-fed and warmly clothed in the Great Desolation.

Of course, because the strength of the Human Race had increased, it would inevitably attract hostility from other powerful races, and now the Human Race was about to face even greater danger.

It was of immense significance that Lu Yun now wanted to widely build cities and spread methods of farming and animal husbandry among the Human Race! Just as Nuwa was pondering these things, the humans in the tribe below had already noticed the arrival of Lu Yun and the others, and for a moment, they all became vigilant.

But when they recognized Lu Yun and Nuwa on the back of Kunpeng, they all suddenly became excited.

The arrival of Lu Yun and Nuwa was undoubtedly a major event for the people of this tribe.

They had all previously seen the live broadcast of Lu Yun preaching, and they also knew that he was now the Immortal Master of the Human Race, the key figure leading the Human Race toward prosperity. And now, this legendary Immortal Master had actually come to their tribe in person; how could this not make them feel excited and thrilled?

Not to mention that accompanying Lu Yun was the Saint Mother Nuwa, who created the Human Race, which made them even more excited!

The leader of the tribe was an elderly man named Cangsong, who was the most respected wise man in the tribe.

Upon learning of the arrival of Lu Yun and Nuwa, Cangsong immediately led the tribe's elders out to welcome them; they respectfully bowed to Lu Yun and Nuwa, then invited them into the tribe.

Lu Yun and Nuwa accepted the invitation and followed Cangsong into the tribe. The people in the tribe watched curiously; they wanted to see this legendary Immortal Master, that compassionate Saint Mother, and the two beautiful fairies, the Xihe sisters, from up close.

Inside a spacious grass hut in the tribe, Cangsong respectfully asked Lu Yun: "I wonder what brings the Saint Mother and the Immortal Master to our small tribe this time?"

Nuwa said indifferently: "For what specifically is to be done, you may just ask Lu Yun!"

Lu Yun smiled slightly and replied: "Elder Cangsong, I have come this time to see the living conditions of our Human Race, and at the same time, I want to help you improve your lives so that you can live better."

Upon hearing this, a flash of surprise crossed Cangsong's eyes; he knew Lu Yun's abilities and character, and if they could receive his help, the future of the tribe would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Lu Yun continued: "I intend to help you build a new city on this land, giving you a safer and more comfortable living environment. At the same time, I will teach you techniques for farming and animal husbandry, so that you can be self-sufficient and no longer worry about food and clothing."

Cangsong and the tribe's elders were so excited they couldn't speak after hearing this.

They knew that what Nuwa and Lu Yun had come to do in person would absolutely be a brand-new beginning for their tribe! Cangsong said solemnly: "Please arrange it, Immortal Master; we will definitely cooperate with all our might!"

Lu Yun pondered for a moment and said: "How about this: you first send some of the tribe's young and strong to contact other nearby tribes and have them come here together, preparing to build the city and learn farming methods together!"

"No problem!"

Cangsong immediately expressed his agreement and quickly dispatched several scouting teams to surrounding tribes to convey Lu Yun's invitation.

And while Cangsong sent people out to notify nearby tribes, Lu Yun himself also began to take action.

He first had his Literature Dao avatar, Lu Wen, take Kunpeng to patrol around the tribe to find a suitable location for building the city. At the same time, he also had Nuwa and the Xihe sisters help plan the layout and design of the city.

Under the guidance of Lu Yun's Martial Dao avatar, Lu Wu, the young and strong of the tribe began to clear the land, preparing to build the city.

Although Lu Yun's avatars could actually complete this work quickly, if the Human Race did not participate themselves, they would not be able to learn how to build a city, nor would they be able to teach more of the Human Race.

Meanwhile, the women and children of the tribe, under the instruction of Lu Yun's Five Elements Path avatar, Lu Wuxing, began to learn how to plant the Five Grains and raise livestock.

At the same time, the news here quickly spread among the surrounding tribes, and many tribal leaders were attracted by the reputation and proposal of Lu Yun and Nuwa, one after another expressing their willingness to come and assist in building the city.

They quickly dispatched their own young and strong, bringing tools and supplies, and rushed to the Cangsong tribe in a mighty force.

Although the strength of the humans from these various tribes was not as good as those in Yuan City, there were still many who had become immortals, and those at the level of Refining Void into Dao were everywhere, so they naturally traveled extremely quickly.

Thus, more and more humans joined the construction, and the progress of the city construction accelerated significantly.

Lu Yun's various avatars played a key role in this, not only providing the technology and experience for building the city but also personally participating in the planning and design to ensure the new city was both sturdy and practical.

As time passed, a new city gradually took shape on the tribe's land.

The humans participating in the construction could already see that the construction of the city not only improved the tribe's defensive capabilities but also gave the people of the tribe a more stable living environment. And the development of farming and animal husbandry also made the tribe's food sources more abundant and stable.

This filled all the people of the tribe with gratitude and hope, and they worked even harder! As for Lu Yun, looking at this newly built city, his heart was also filled with satisfaction, having a sense of pleasure like playing a management game.

The Xihe sisters also helped out the whole time, equally enjoying the process.

But just at this moment, Nuwa suddenly brought a piece of news to Lu Yun: "Lu Yun, I just learned that the Three Pure Ones have sent their disciples, led by Xuandu, into the Primordial Land, finding a place to both preach to the Human Race and build cities for them."

Hearing this, the Xihe sisters couldn't help but be stunned, and then they all looked at Lu Yun in unison.

However, Lu Yun's eyebrows twitched slightly, but his face did not reveal much surprise. Because he had long anticipated that his series of actions in the Great Desolation would inevitably attract the attention and imitation of others. Laozi, in order to win back the lost Human Race Luck, would naturally not let such an opportunity slip by.

He just smiled and said: "This is a good thing!"

"A good thing?"

The Xihe sisters were both somewhat surprised by Lu Yun's reaction.

Changxi said: "They are doing this to compete with you for the Human Race Luck!"

Lu Yun, however, said with a smile: "It doesn't matter; in any case, having more people help the Human Race grow stronger is a good thing! If they can rely on their own abilities to take the Human Race Luck away from me, I have nothing to say."

Lu Yun's attitude made the Xihe sisters feel somewhat surprised, but at the same time, they also felt admiration for his broad-mindedness.

Clearly, Lu Yun was not that kind of narrow-minded person; his goal in doing these things was not just for personal achievement, but for the future of the entire Human Race.

Nuwa looked at Lu Yun, a flash of approval in her eyes, feeling that she had not misjudged him.

Lu Yun continued: "However, we cannot let our guard down. Since the disciples of the Three Pure Ones have already begun to act, we must also speed up our pace; otherwise, if the Human Race Luck is really all snatched away by the Ren Sect, that won't do!"

Xihe asked: "Do you intend to use your Supernatural Power to accelerate the city construction?"

Lu Yun shook his head and said, "No need. Now that this city has basically taken shape, perfecting the remaining parts slowly will actually allow the Human Race to better grasp the various details of city construction, and it can be promoted to more places in the Great Desolation in the future."

Changxi asked curiously, "Then how do you intend to speed it up?"

Lu Yun smiled and said, "We can set off now, find the next location, and carry out city construction again! As for my avatars, they can stay here for the time being; anyway, if I have need of them, I can recall them at any time!"

Nuwa and the other two nodded one after another.

Following Lu Yun's plan like this, it would indeed be possible to quicken the pace somewhat.

Thus, Lu Yun soon informed Cangsong and the tribal chiefs of the various major tribes of the news that he was about to head to the next location; for a time, Cangsong and the others were all reluctant to see them go.

However, they also knew that the actions of Lu Yun and his group concerned the survival of other members of the Human Race in the Great Desolation, so they did not forcibly hold them back.

Nevertheless, before Lu Yun left, Cangsong said solemnly to Nuwa and Lu Yun, "Holy Mother, Immortal Master, I ask that you name this city before you depart!"

The tribal chiefs of the other tribes also looked at Lu Yun and Nuwa with eager eyes.

Lu Yun looked at Nuwa and smiled, "Mother, the name of this city shall be decided by you!"

Nuwa was slightly stunned, not expecting Lu Yun to hand this matter over to her.

She did not decline, pondered for a moment, and then said softly, "I think we should call it 'Qi City'."

"'Qi City'?" After hearing this, Lu Yun repeated the name, then nodded in praise, "A good name! 'Qi' implies opening and enlightenment, and also implies a new departure for the Human Race. This name is very appropriate."

Cangsong and the tribal chiefs of the various tribes also expressed their agreement one after another; they all felt that the name "Qi City" was not only pleasant to hear but also had profound meaning.

"Then, from now on, this place shall be the Qi City of our Human Race!" Cangsong announced excitedly.

As Cangsong's voice fell, the Human Race inside and outside Qi City cheered; they felt happy and proud that their city had a name.

Afterwards, Cangsong and the others watched Lu Yun and his group depart together.

Lu Yun and his group rode the Kunpeng and once again embarked on a journey across the Primordial Land.

This time, they arrived at a vast grassland located one hundred thousand miles away from Qi City.

There were many Human Tribe settlements here, but due to the open terrain and lack of natural barriers, they were frequently harassed by other races, and life was extremely difficult.

Lu Yun chose this place as the next site for city construction precisely because he saw the potential and strategic position here.

He believed that as long as a sturdy city was built here, it could connect the Human Tribe settlements on this grassland, forming a powerful defensive system to resist the invasion of foreign enemies.

At the same time, the abundant resources on the grassland could also provide strong support for the development of the city.

Thus, under the eager anticipation and full support of the grassland tribal leaders and residents, Lu Yun, Nuwa, and the others once again began the intensive work of city construction.

Lu Yun first had his Literature Dao avatar, Lu Wen, conduct a detailed survey and plan of this vast grassland to find the most suitable location for building the city. At the same time, he also guided the residents of the grassland tribes on how to clear the land and prepare building materials, making full preparations for the city construction.

Nuwa and the sisters Xihe were responsible for teaching the residents techniques for farming and animal husbandry, allowing them to learn how to utilize the abundant resources on the grassland to produce food and clothing self-sufficiently.

This time, due to the experience gained in Yuan City and Qi City, plus the fact that the residents of the grassland tribes were more united and diligent, the progress of the city construction was much faster than expected.

Moreover, under Lu Yun's guidance, they also learned how to utilize the unique resources of the grassland to build a city with a unique grassland style that was both sturdy and practical, as well as beautiful and elegant.

As the city was gradually built, more and more residents of the grassland tribes gathered here to contribute their strength to the construction of the new city together.

However, what Lu Yun and his group did not expect was that just as they were busy building the city, Houtu suddenly arrived at this grassland as well and found Lu Yun and the others.

Seeing Houtu appear suddenly, Lu Yun was somewhat surprised and said, "Fellow Daoist Houtu, wasn't it said that after you all returned from Outer Space, you were busy taking over the Heavenly Court?"

Houtu smiled and said, "My elder brothers and the others can handle the matter of taking over the Heavenly Court, so I naturally returned to the Primordial Land first!"

Immediately, she seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, I have some news to tell you!"

Lu Yun asked curiously, "What news?"

It turned out that on the way here, Houtu happened to see that the disciples under the Three Pure Ones had already completed two Human Race cities!

Moreover, they seemed to be intentionally competing with Lu Yun's side, so they frantically accelerated their speed; after finishing the construction of the two cities, they immediately set off again, actually splitting into two groups to go to two different places to build cities!
