《Journey of Detachment》A Birth of a New Civilization
Advertisement
Before the water stream the size of the river could reach the flaming giant, Wang Wei's eyes flickered and he immediately executed his movement art, his giant flaming form moved so quickly it was as if it instantly disappeared from the path of the gigantic snake's attack and reappeared behind its body.
The nearby tribesmen were absolutely stunned by a gigantic 10-meter tall giant appearing from their bonfire and when the sacrificial tribute saw that the giant made of flames was fighting the demonic snake, his hope was again rekindled so he immediately started pleading loudly to the flaming giant for salvation.
Of course, Wang Wei couldn't hear him at all as he was focused entirely on his battle with this challenging opponent, his goal in this fight wasn't to kill the giant snake but just to scare it away as he didn't like killing any living being unless necessary.
As Wang Wei reappeared behind the body of the giant snake and he forcefully punched out but before the punch could reach the feathered serpent it immediately sensed his punch and it curled its body in an attempt to move away from the flaming arm of the giant.
Fortunately for the giant snake, it managed to do so, but still the punch passed extremely close to its scales and the heat radiating off the fist burned its body.
However, what Wang Wei didn't expect was the snake to, as soon as it felt the pain of his scales being burnt, turn around and run away as fast as its wings could carry it.
Wang Wei was very confused at first as to why a Golden-Core stage beast would run away from him, but then he realized why.
The giant snake was at the apex of this fledgling ecosystem that it even forgot what pain felt like because for thousands of kilometers around it nobody could even reach his body before they died let alone hurt it. So even though it was very powerful, it was frightened out of its skin as soon as Wang Wei managed to make it feel pain, and it ran away as fast as it possibly could.
Wang Wei was pleasantly surprised, but he didn't think about it too much as he continued on with executing his plan to completely control the tribe and shape it into a proper civilization.
The tribesmen were shocked out of their minds to see their god so easily beaten and running away, and so they immediately started pleading for mercy and bowing towards the Wang Wei's flaming giant form.
Wang Wei then yelled out "MY CHILDREN I HAVE COME TO PROTECT YOU FROM THESE DEMONS AND FALSE GODS, I WAS SENT BY VERY HEAVENS THEMSELVES TO HELP THE HUMAN RACE!", because of his physical cultivation his entire body was upgraded that included his vocal cords so his voice reverberates around his surrounding as if the voice from the heavens themselves.
He continued yelling out "I WILL PROTECT YOU FROM THEM ALL, I WILL EVEN ALLOW YOU TO FIGHT AGAINST THEM AND THE ONLY THING I ASK OF YOU IS YOUR DEVOTION TO ME AND TO FOLLOW MY TEACHINGS!".
As he was telling them this his giant flaming form kept shrinking and shrinking until the cyan flames disappeared to reveal Wang Wei dressed in a fire-proof Taoist robe that was a gift of his father, it was in fact a defensive artifact that could withstand a blow from a Nascent-Soul cultivator let alone from his flames.

After the flames completely dissipated, the only place where the flames remained was in his eyes as his pupils glowed crimson, as a show of strength to the tribe.
The people of the tribe were stupefied from all of the new events and the first person to react was in fact the tribute that was meant to be sacrificed as he yelled out "Huang Dian swears to follow the teachings of the deity!" his face was full of relief and in his heart, he immediately swore that he would follow his savior for the rest of his life.
As soon as the other tribesman processed all of their information they immediately cheered in their hearts and followed the example of Huang Dian in bowing down and swearing to follow Wang Wei's teachings.
They were completely convinced in Wang Wei's words because he displayed all of these amazing powers that only demons previously used but most important of all was that he was in fact human.
And they didn't have a hard time believing that their last diety was a demon because of how it asked for human sacrifices.
Wang Wei was very pleased with Huang Dian so he immediately jumped out while utilizing his movement technique to gently float towards the tree where Huang Dian was tied up, further improving his image in the minds of the tribesmen.
When Wang Wei reached the tree he slowly extended his hand which was glowing hot as he used it to burn the weeds they used to bind Huang Dian to the tree.
Then he loudly exclaimed, "When I am not around he will be my representative!", because Wang Wei knew that loyalty born from saving someone's life would last a lifetime and he needed someone who knew how the tribe operated to help him implement his plans.
The tribesmen were still very primitive so they couldn't understand Wang Wei's motives, they only felt jealous that Huang Dian could gain the favor of a deity, but even with their jealousy they still bowed to Huang Dian to show him respect as a representative of a deity.
Meanwhile, Huang Dian was even more surprised than them, because of the reason he was chosen as a sacrifice, he was missing an arm and since he couldn't hunt he was chosen to be sacrificed.
Huang Dian couldn't even comprehend why a god would want a cripple to be his representative because he was unfortunately born in a primitive era where all men who couldn't hunt were considered completely useless and that was ingrained in him by society ever since he was a child.
After that Wang Wei took Huan Dian outside aside the other tribesmen and he immediately started telling Huang Dian about how to organize a proper civilization, in order to do so he used his almost photographic memory to remember what they were taught in schools in his previous life.
Wang Wei wanted to use every single advantage given to him, so he had no scruples about stealing the knowledge of his previous civilization. So the first thing he told the Huang Dian to do was to learn how to build houses from wood, thatch, and mud.
What Wang Wei learned in his previous life was that settling down was the first step of creating civilization, and now he proceeded to the second step which was teaching him how to plant nutritional vegetables.

When Huang Dian relayed what Wang Wei told him to the tribe they were shocked that he was teaching them the way to grow plants they used to forage from the forest and they thought that Wang Wei gifted them the ability of the gods, the ability to create life itself.
They were even more amazed when Wang Wei explained the concept of domestication to Huan Dian and told him the tribe would even be able to control the beasts they were currently being terrorized by.
The method of domestication that Wang Wei described to them is to domesticate an animal by picking the most obedient and gentle ones from every generation and breeding them together to create the next generation and killing the rest and using them as a food source.
That way in only a few generations the animals would be domesticated and depending on the animal could even be ridden.
After explaining all of this to Huang Dian and Wang Wei had to make sure he properly organized the tribe into different jobs in order to implement all of this into the new society, which took an entire year to fully put everything into motion.
While everything was being implemented into this new society with the protection of Wang Wei not a single human in the tribe died of a demonic beast attack and the tribesmen's lives improved drastically.
Now they didn't die from demonic beast attacks, they had protection from the elements because of their new houses, and they were even fully fed with Wang Wei's knowledge of agriculture and with him hunting demonic beasts for them.
So the status of Wang Wei in the hearts of the entire tribe was unshakable, and even if Wang Wei told them to commit suicide they would do so without hesitation.
However, as Wang Wei's status in the tribe rose drastically so did Huang Dian's and since Huang Dian was a normal human he used that status to position himself as something of a tribe chief, he even fully controlled how the food was divided up in the tribe.
But Wang Wei didn't worry about that, after all, it would be easier to implement new things in the society if he controlled the leader of said society.
After spending an entire year helping them enter the era of permanent settlements there were two more things he had to do before he entered seclusion to create the first realm of his cultivation path.
Firstly as he did not know how long his seclusion would take it was very important to give the tribespeople the ability to protect themselves while he was gone.
The way he thought to do that was by giving them the physical cultivation system, he instructed them the various herbs needed to create the various medicinal baths required to cultivate their bodies and thought them how to make said medicinal baths from the herbs.
The tribesmen were ecstatic when Huang Dian expectedly cultivated to the skin-strengthening realm and successfully destroyed a tree with a punch. The only way he was able to do it so quickly was that he was given priority in all of the medical herbs of the whole tribe, because of Wang Wei.
What Wang Wei didn't expect to happen was that Huang Dian was even happier than all of them combined and he immediately ordered the tribespeople to construct a temple in Wang Wei's honor which they were more than happy to do.
Wang Wei was a bit taken aback but ultimately he did nothing to stop it if they wanted to honor him they were free to do so after all he didn't force them so he didn't get any negative karma.
And the second thing Wang Wei had to do was share the Buddhist teachings from his previous life and he presented them as the teachings that Heaven instructed him to relay to them.
But what he truly hoped for is that he might gain something from the insights their civilization would hopefully gain during his long secluded meditation.
So after a long time spent he finally had to say goodbye to the tribespeople and he told them he has to return to Heaven and that he will return when Heaven demands it. After that, he quickly ran towards the mountains far away from the newly constructed village, but to the mortal eyes of the tribespeople it looked like he vanished into thin air, even Huang Dian barely saw him leave.
However, in order to enter a long secluded meditation, he has to first eat an enormous amount of food and store it in his blood as he still hasn't reached the realm required to completely survive on Qi without the need for food.
Therefore all the demonic beasts were terrorized in the next few days as he hunted and ate almost every demonic beast in a 1000 kilometer radius.
When he checked how much food he stored in his blood he found out that it was almost at the limit of what he could store which was truly a monstrous amount, by his estimation he could survive without food and water for 2 centuries.
This was very abnormal because usually, cultivators in the Blood-Exchange realm would only be able to store a century worth of food at a maximum but he could store twice of that, he guessed that it was because of his "Art of Boiling Seas" technique that tempered his physique even more than normal.
Now Wang Wei started thinking about the location he could have his secluded mediation in and eventually he landed on a lake. Because of his enhanced lungs being able to breathe even in water, he would be able to seclude himself at the bottom of the deep lake where no human could find him.
So with that thought he eventually found a lake and sat in a lotus position on the bottom of it as he entered a deep meditative state.
