Capítulo 1814: Chapter 1815: Choosing Candidates

Regarding the process of tribal development, Su Chengyu actually didn’t pay too much attention.

After all, that wasn’t his main goal; for him, taking away this Divine Beast Immortal Core and enlightening this group of primitives was already more than enough.

But perhaps because of the simple Spirit Gathering Array that Su Chengyu had set up, he clearly noticed that the entire tribe’s literacy process far exceeded Su Chengyu’s expectations.

Even though the tribe’s population wasn’t very large, totaling less than a thousand people.

Yet the speed of enlightenment of these people far exceeded Su Chengyu’s imagination.

“It shouldn’t be like this.”

Seeing that almost 80% of the people had already mastered the script that Su Chengyu had specifically improved for them, Su Chengyu began to hesitate whether to teach them the Cultivation Method.

Looking at the history of Xia Country, the development process and the constant changes in the cultivation system are closely linked.

During this time, despite several apocalyptic disasters causing a reduction in Spiritual Energy leading to environmental changes, much of it was also closely related to the widespread dissemination of various Cultivation Methods among the populace.

But all of that happened after the Three Emperors Era, when the Initiation War ended, and the Human Clan replaced the Ancient Exotic Beast as the dominant force in the world.

And in this territory, it’s evident that the Demon Clan is the master.

At this time, teaching them the Cultivation Method, Su Chengyu was very worried about the possibility of “one who holds a jade, inciting crime.”

After all, Su Chengyu was destined to leave; leaving the Cultivation Method alone without protecting their journey could very likely accelerate them towards their own demise.

“What is the lord troubled by? Is there anything that Chang Li can help alleviate for the lord?”

Inside the cave, Chang Li noticed Su Chengyu’s hesitation and proactively asked.

Su Chengyu pondered for a moment and eventually revealed his concerns.

He wanted to know how the Demon Clan, native to this land, viewed the matter.

After listening to Su Chengyu’s words, Chang Li was initially shocked and surprised. After calming down, she fell into serious contemplation.

“Lord, I can’t say whether it’s right or wrong, but if the lord is worried that after they cultivate, it might attract the attention of the Demon Clan, I think it’s a bit overly concerned.”

Su Chengyu, after hearing this, smiled with interest and said, “Your speech is becoming more refined; you’ve done your homework well.”

Chang Li’s face turned red, and she lowered her head, saying, “The lord teaches well.”

“Continue speaking, I’m listening.”

Chang Li nodded softly and continued.

“While our Demon Clan has a lot of rivalry and plundering among ourselves, we actually have little interest in the Human Clan. After all, even among our own kind, it’s rare for us to go to great lengths for a Cultivation Method. Our cultivation relies more on our own Innate Divine Ability…”

“But that was in the past.”

Su Chengyu spoke calmly.

This world is home to primitive tribes, while the Demon Clan isn’t much better off. Chang Li was able to realize a brand-new Cultivation Method that suits her from Su Chengyu’s enlightenment, which is the best proof.

“That’s how it is, but from my perspective, unless the Human Clan truly has someone comparable to the Demon God, they probably won’t take them seriously. If they don’t respect them, naturally, they wouldn’t come to plunder…”

“I was somewhat preconceived.”

Su Chengyu slowly began to understand Chang Li’s meaning.

Indeed, even if he taught these tribal people, even if their cultivation system was the result of Su Chengyu’s millennia of accumulated knowledge, the Demon Clan wouldn’t know.

To most Demons, they’re just those ants that could be crushed at a whim, now turned into insignificant insects that can be easily manipulated.

Ultimately, whether the Demon Clan will attack humans depends on whether any foolish individuals present themselves to the Demon Clan to court disaster.

Even if they embark on cultivation, Su Chengyu doesn’t think that in a short time, human cultivators would possess something like the Divine Beast Immortal Core, which would be tempting enough for the Demon Clan.

As for other opportunities, it’s a matter of each person’s fate.

“Thank you, I understand now.”

Su Chengyu expressed his gratitude, which made Chang Li somewhat flattered and unsure how to respond.

Seeing her a bit flustered, he reached out and patted her head, which helped Chang Li calm down externally.

However, the little deer in her heart was racing even more vigorously where Su Chengyu couldn’t perceive.

“Let’s go; since the time is right, I should go with the flow. If someone truly steps into cultivation from the tribe, it might accelerate the recovery speed of the Divine Beast Immortal Core.”

The Power of Faith is a rather elusive thing.

Su Chengyu hadn’t had much contact with this, but he did notice over the past few days that it is directly related to the believers’ strength, vitality, and other factors.

Ordinary people and cultivators are entirely different concepts.

Even if the tribe only gave birth to one or two individuals with cultivation potential, it would significantly accelerate the recovery speed of the Divine Beast Immortal Core.

Together with Chang Li, Su Chengyu actively appeared at the residence of the Tribal Elder, which remained modest, having not changed much due to the tribe’s enlightenment.

After all, these changes require time unless Su Chengyu actively involved himself to spare the laborious work, but he clearly did not have any interest in that.

“Looks quite busy; have the tribe members started hunting again these days?”

Su Chengyu suddenly spoke, startling the Elder who quickly kneeled after realizing it was Su Chengyu.

“Thanks to the lord’s protection, we can now freely venture nearby.”

After becoming captive of the Demon Clan, the tribe’s movement range had been noticeably restricted; even hunting needed permission.

Though to those demons, they didn’t even care about this issue, their restriction was merely to ensure these humans were under their control, but now that control had completely failed.

“Mm, don’t stray beyond the area I designated; otherwise, I won’t guarantee safety in case of any accidents.”

Su Chengyu referred, naturally, to his Divine Sense coverage area, although he surely couldn’t prevent every accident as it happened. If those demons truly acted, Su Chengyu could at least sense it first, determining their next move.

“Understood, lord.”

Su Chengyu glanced at the slate the Elder was recording on, then spoke: “Are you tallying the tribe’s population?”

“Yes, lord, now that the script standard has been established, I thought of recording everyone in the tribe, making it easier for future additions and edits.”

“Just right, select twelve people aged twelve to twenty-four for me, six male and six female, preferably covering all ages. Then bring them to me.”

The Tribal Elder wondered internally, wanting to ask Su Chengyu the reason for this, but Su Chengyu’s figure had already disappeared before him.

Turning to look at the slate beside him, thinking for a while, the Tribal Elder then began selecting candidates.
