"After you return, remember to teach the clan members how to drill wood for fire, make clothes to cover themselves, and build nests to live in."
"Also, these three drops of Chaos Demon God essence blood are for you to refine."
"You are already Martial Emperors. You should know that in Martial Dao combat techniques, there is a method called the 'Meditation Method'."
"It allows you to meditate on the true form of powerful beings from their essence blood, transforming it into a Martial Dao Dharma Image."
"By completely refining the essence blood, you can briefly unleash the power of a Martial Saint peak."
"At critical moments, even if the Witch-Demon two races invade, our Human Race will have the power to protect ourselves."
Staring intently at Sui Ren Shi and the others, Huang Tian commanded without hesitation.
"Yes, Leader!"
Upon hearing this, Sui Ren Shi, Zi Yi Shi, and You Chao Shi solemnly accepted the order.
As the three tribes of the Human Race imparted various forms of civilization, the overall living environment of the Human Race improved significantly.
They no longer ate raw meat and blood, and fewer people froze to death in the icy wilderness.
Women diligently made clothes at home and took care of the children.
Men were responsible for moving large stones to build stone houses, and various stone tools were crafted, forming powerful Human Race tribes.
They transitioned from eating raw meat and blood to a cooked food civilization, with clothes to ward off the cold and stone houses to defend against nocturnal beast invasions.
Although the living environment for the Human Race was still harsh compared to other races.
It was much better than in the early days of the Human Race, now in the Bronze Age.
The Human Race had more energy to cultivate, their strength increased, their Destiny rose, and the Human Race leader Huang Tian also received immense benefits in return.
"Pop!"
With a thought, Huang Tian opened a ball of colorful radiance from the Kongtong Seal, and a miniature palace landed in his palm.
"Low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, can it grow?"
Instantly, Huang Tian knew the information about the Spiritual Treasure before him.
Although it was only a low-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, it could be merged with other Innate Spiritual Treasures to form new buildings, and it could also continuously improve its grade.
"Merge!"
Thinking this, Huang Tian did not hesitate at all. He merged the exotic treasure Spirit Transformation Pool and the Great Dao Exotic Treasure Martial Dao Stele into the palace.
Because they were exotic treasures, they were different from ordinary Innate Spiritual Treasures. Their effects were heaven-defying, but their grade was only considered low-grade.
At Huang Tian's command, the exotic treasure Spirit Transformation Pool emitted a misty, seven-colored spiritual mist and slowly rose.
The twelve Martial Dao Steles each emitted Martial Dao radiance of different colors, some like raging fires burning the sky, some like vast blue waves, and some like clashing armies, merging in sequence.
The Dao rhymes naturally fit together, and the Spirit Transformation Pool and the twelve Martial Dao Steles seemed to be one with the palace.
Innate Dao rhymes flowed, and the radiance grew stronger and stronger.
When the radiance subsided, a magnificent palace appeared.
It was paved entirely with Nine Heavens Profound Jade, and its roof was covered with seven-colored glazed tiles.
When the sunlight shone upon it, golden light emanated in all directions, like rolling red clouds, and auspicious energy surged forth in streams, like purple mist.
In the center of the roof, a naturally formed white jade plaque slowly appeared.
A born Dao text emerged, stating: Ancestral.
"From now on, this will be the Human Ancestral Hall!"
With eyes like torches, Huang Tian said with a smile.
The next moment, Huang Tian's blood and qi surged, empowering the Human Ancestral Hall, replacing the central stone house and covering an area of over a hundred thousand zhang.
Without hesitation, Huang Tian stepped into the Human Ancestral Hall.
In the very center stood a majestic and grand Human Emperor Palace, with carved beams and painted rafters, and imperial steps of jade.
To the left of the Human Emperor Palace was the Spirit Transformation Palace, evolved from the Spirit Transformation Pool.
By infusing the flesh and blood of powerful beings, one could purify essence blood, which could be used to reverse the innate origins of Postnatal Humans, even elevating them to the level of top-grade Innate Beings, second only to low-grade Innate Gods and Demons.
Theoretically, if the purified essence blood reached the level of Chaos Beings, it was not impossible to give birth to the origins of high-level Innate Gods and Demons.
To the right of the Human Emperor Palace, twelve palaces were arranged in a row, corresponding to the Twelve Star Palaces.
Each palace corresponded to the origin of a Martial Dao Stele.
By stepping into the Twelve Star Palaces, one could comprehend different Martial Dao combat techniques and divine abilities based on their talent.
Once the concept of the twelve zodiac signs was established, Humans born in corresponding years would be able to greatly increase their chances of comprehending combat techniques and divine abilities by entering the corresponding Star Palace.
Seeing this, Huang Tian couldn't help but show a hint of joy. This was a crucial foundation for the Human Race to become the protagonists of Heaven and Earth.
"Leader!!"
At this very moment, Sui Ren Shi arrived in a hurry, with Zi Yi Shi and You Chao Shi following him.
"What's the rush?"
After glancing at the three, Huang Tian asked with a frown.
"A large number of Da Luo Demon Gods have broken into our Human Race's living areas, slaughtering our people indiscriminately."
"Among them are Demon Gods in the late Da Luo stage; we are no match for them."
Sui Ren Shi reported bitterly to Huang Tian with a grim expression.
"No power to fight back?"
Huang Tian asked, looking at Sui Ren Shi.
"Well... not exactly. It just requires an immense price to kill even one Da Luo Demon God."
Sui Ren Shi hesitated for a moment before replying to Huang Tian, looking puzzled.
"Survival of the fittest."
"Our Human Race reproduces too quickly. Sooner or later, the vast Shore of the East Sea won't be able to accommodate us."
"The Primordial World is so vast that even a Quasi-Saint couldn't explore every corner in their lifetime."
"What will happen to our people when they face danger without our protection?"
"The Martial Dao I passed down is for them to cultivate diligently and carve out their own path."
"As the saying goes, the Human Race must strive for self-improvement!"
"If they face an irresistible threat, I will naturally intervene."
"But for crises that can be overcome through unity, I will not act."
"A chick that is always protected will never learn to fly."
"This is a trial that every member of our race must endure."
Huang Tian stared intently at Sui Ren Shi and said cruelly.
"Leader, we understand."
Sui Ren Shi, Zi Yi Shi, and You Chao Shi lowered their heads in shame, their expressions shaken.
"Go and see for yourselves. The greatest strength of our Human Race isn't our innate potential, but our tenacious spirit."
Huang Tian nodded slightly and said.
"This!"
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race walked out of the Human Ancestral Hall, and everything they saw astonished them.
Malevolent energy soared, and blood stained the sky.
Various human tribes, led by the Innate Human Race, had actually repelled the Demon Clan army backed by Da Luo Demon Gods.
Martial Dao Dharma Images, tens of thousands of feet tall, appeared in the sky, engaging in close combat with the Demon Clan. Their teeth and fingernails became weapons, killing the Demon Clan until they fled in terror.
Having learned the Martial Dao, the Human Race achieved the unity of essence, qi, and spirit. Facing the unknown and fear, they advanced with unwavering resolve, showing no intention of retreating.
"In the past, the Human Race was weak and lacked courage due to insufficient strength."
"When people have strength and confidence, courage naturally flourishes."
"The potential of the Human Race is absolutely on par with any race in Heaven and Earth, including the Witch-Demon races."
"Only by being baptized in blood can an unshakeable, rock-solid will be forged."
"The stronger the will, the more vigorous the blood and qi, allowing them to even counterattack invading enemies."
"Issue an order: every member of the Human Race who reaches the Earth Viscera (Earth Immortal) realm must actively hunt Demon Clan of the same level."
"Hunting Demon Clan will earn merit, which can be exchanged for the qualifications to enter the Human Ancestral Hall, the Spirit Transformation Pool, and even the Twelve Star Palaces."
"No one should expect to benefit without contributing. Those who gain advantages should strive to create a better environment for future generations."
"The strong will lead the weak to strength!"
"Life is endless, and battle is eternal!"
Huang Tian roared with eyes like torches, issuing his orders without room for argument.
"Yes, Leader!"
Sui Ren Shi and the others accepted the command and left to relay Huang Tian's orders.
The Human Race became even more fervent.
Repelling the invading Demon Clan was initially for self-preservation, but now with the motivation of merit, the Human Race became even more enthusiastic about hunting the Demon Clan.
One by one, demons turned into Blood Food for the humans, accelerating the spread of the Human Race's Martial Dao.
More and more humans broke through in life-and-death struggles, causing the Human Race Destiny to surge.
Soon, the Human Race was on the right track, no longer needing protection. They could defend their tribes independently and subsist on demon beasts.
"Leader, where is this?"
The Three Ancestors of the Human Race, relieved, found Huang Tian and couldn't help but look at the Human Ancestral Hall before them with confusion.
"This Spiritual Treasure was obtained by this seat by chance and shall be the place of inheritance for my Human Ancestral Hall."
"Without permission, only the four of us can enter and exit."
"Come here."
Bringing Sui Ren Shi and the others, Huang Tian introduced the Spirit Transformation Palace and the Twelve Star Palaces one by one.
"The Spirit Transformation Palace, each time it is filled with essence and blood, can accommodate 3,000 Postnatal Human Race members to enter and reverse their postnatal origins to become Innate Dao Bodies."
"The higher the origin, the more essence and blood consumed, and the fewer Human Race members can be accommodated."
"Therefore, clan members at the Primordial Fetus (Profound Immortal) realm and above must regularly hunt powerful Demon Clans and throw their flesh and blood into the Spirit Transformation Pool."
"Theoretically, after a million years, when the Sage's Barrier dissipates, our Human Race will have at least a million Innate Dao Bodies."
With burning eyes, Huang Tian said in a deep voice.
"Hiss!"
Upon hearing this, Sui Ren Shi and the others were stunned and couldn't help but gasp.
Different origins meant different upper limits for the Martial Dao realm they could reach.
No matter how hard Postnatal Human Race members tried, they could at most reach the Star Aperture (True Immortal) realm.
However, for those with Innate Dao Bodies, their upper limit could be raised to the Martial Emperor (Da Luo) realm.
Of course, with the upper limit set, whether they could ultimately reach the Immortal (Taiyi) realm or the Martial Emperor realm was still unknown.
"With this, our Human Race will not fear a lack of successors and will continuously grow stronger. What is there to fear from the Witch-Demon Clan!"
For a moment, Sui Ren Shi clenched his fist, his confidence soaring.
Nodding, Huang Tian calmly led Sui Ren Shi and the others to understand the Twelve Star Palaces.
"Jiang Lou, Da Liang, Shi Shen, Chun Shou, Chun Huo, Chun Wei, Shou Xing, Da Huo, Xi Mu, Xing Ji, Xuan Xiao, Zui Zi."
"Each Star Palace allows for the comprehension of different combat skills and divine abilities."
"Some are for offense and breaking through defenses, some for defense and solidifying foundations, some for evasive movement, and some for formation confinement, and so on."
"Issue the decree."
"All clan members, upon breaking through each realm, can choose one of the Twelve Star Palaces to study in for one year."
"To avoid trying to swallow too much at once, practicing combat skills and divine abilities from at most three Star Palaces is permitted."
Slightly nodding, Huang Tian continued to issue orders.
"Yes, Leader!"
Without daring to hesitate, Sui Ren Shi and the others quickly accepted the order.
"Currently, what is the total population of our Human Race, and how many Innate Human Race members survived from that year?"
Huang Tian asked next.
"Reporting to the Leader."
"Currently, our Human Race has a total population of 6,124,216 people."
"Including 100,800 Innate Human Race members."
"Because we fought against the Demon Clan, the Innate Human Race members always charged ahead, so the casualties were somewhat high."
Sui Ren Shi quickly reported.
"What is the cultivation level of the Innate Human Race?"
Without dwelling on the casualties, Huang Tian continued to ask.
"5,000 people at the peak of Myriad Transformations (Golden Immortal) realm, 12,000 at the late stage of Myriad Transformations, 30,000 at the middle stage of Myriad Transformations, 60,000 at the early stage of Myriad Transformations, and the rest are all at the peak of Primordial Fetus (Profound Immortal)."
Sui Ren Shi continued to report.
"Issue the decree to consolidate the Human Race tribes, temporarily setting them at 360 tribes."
"Each tribe will have one leader, who must be at the peak of Myriad Transformations, three deputy leaders, who must be at the middle stage of Myriad Transformations, and one hundred elders, who must be at the early stage of Myriad Transformations."
"The remaining Human Race members will be evenly distributed among the 360 tribes."
Without hesitation, Huang Tian continued to make arrangements.
"Yes, Leader!"
Sui Ren Shi and the others immediately understood Huang Tian's arrangements.
By dispersing the Human Race, with leaders at the peak of Myriad Transformations, they could calmly deal with any threat as long as a Da Luo Demon God didn't arrive.
The Shore of the East Sea was vast, and with 360 tribes spread out, they wouldn't have to crowd together fighting for resources.
The Human Race could continuously produce mid-level and lower-level warriors.
This would greatly benefit the future proliferation of the Human Race, allowing them to become the overlords of Heaven and Earth and rule all corners of it.
Every mid-level warrior had the potential to rise to the high-level, or even become top powerhouses.
Letting the strong lead the weak to become strong is the path to eternal prosperity for the Human Race!
