Qi Xuansu secretly left Xinpayititi and went to an ancient rainforest located at the southernmost tip of the Southern Continent, which was already on the edge of Xidaomen's rule, whether it was the gospel of the Holy Court or the indoctrination of Xidaomen, they did not leave much impact, but left a few footprints in a hurry to prove that they had come, and left in a hurry.

The people of the northern continent proclaimed themselves civilized and considered the southern continent barbaric, while this more southern region was considered barbaric by these so-called civilized people.

There are also a few tribes here, because they are remote and poor enough, they have been lucky enough to escape the rolling wheels of the Holy Court, and later Xidaomen did not take care of them, but let them get away with it.

It's very xenophobic and complicated. From the point of view of faith, there are the beliefs of the insects, the beliefs of some northern deaths, the beliefs of the apostles of hell, and even the beliefs of some unknown evil gods, not to mention blood sacrifices, and the daily custom of cannibalism is maintained.

It is very difficult to exterminate it and bring it back to the Tawantin Empire. Here a mountain is connected to a mountain, a mountain after a mountain, endlessly, the forest is towering, the road is sparsely populated, the miasma is rampant, it can be said that it is a natural barrier here, this is just like the Central Plains Dynasty in the past to conquer the Tusi, as long as the Tusi retreats to the mountain, it is difficult for the Chinese army to make a difference.

If it is only to use air power to strike, not to mention the waste of almost finding a needle in a haystack, even if you can find the target, it is not of much significance, because such a large area of rainforest and mountains, all kinds of caves abound, unless the mountain is blown up and chiseled through, it can only be suppressed, not forced to surrender. And this is not a city-state that can only stay where it is, it can be broken into pieces at any time, scattered everywhere with tribes as units, relying on geographical advantages, so that the army can not form a decisive battle, and finally rely on a "drag" trick to force the army to withdraw first with logistical pressure.

The only way to do this is to destroy the upper echelons with a small elite force to leave them leaderless, and then take the opportunity to send troops into this area, break them up, and move them to other places.

So Qi Xuansu only brought Utu alone this time.

The two of them were standing on a high cliff overlooking a settlement below, where there weren't many stone buildings, let alone the tall pyramid temples, most of the buildings were wooden structures, almost integrated into the rainforest, and it was difficult to spot without looking closely.

Utu's whole person was wrapped in black robes, and he pointed to the settlement below and said, "Qi Zhenren, this is a worm village, the children here have been taught various skills since they were young, hunting for a living, honing their skills, there are not a few children who die in the mouths of lions and leopards every year, and most of the children who can survive are warlike."

Qi Xuansu opened his eyes and looked at it, and sure enough, he saw that in the settlement, or the village, according to the habits of the Central Plains, let's call it a village. In the very center of the village, a group of children, ranging from four or five years old to teenagers, about a dozen of them, were exercising their bodies under the guidance of an adult, punching and kicking, looking like they were serious and serious.

The middle-aged man at the head, with bronzed skin and a fierce look on his face, patrolled back and forth like a teaching leader, observing the movements of the children, correcting and reprimanding from time to time.

Qi Xuansu asked, "Are these children also implanted with eggs?"

Utu shook his head and said, "No, 'Tsukidan' is very precious, and it can't be owned by everyone, so it is necessary to screen, and select some qualified children to take it, including hunting, are all means of screening. Therefore, their world is also very simple, it is cultivation, except for collecting divine power, everything is in the service of cultivation."

Qi Xuansu continued to observe the situation in that village.

There are also many adult men in the village, burly and also forging their bodies, and they are vigorous.

There were also some white-bearded old men, carrying their hands behind their backs, nodding from time to time.

The status of these old people is obviously very high, and they are even higher than the young and middle-aged, and they should be similar to the existence of elders.

After about half an hour, the people of the village, led by an old man, began to assemble, and then came to a shrine and worshiped the idol inside.

Because of the angle, Qi Xuansu couldn't see the whole picture of the statue in the shrine, and asked, "What is enshrined there?"

"A wood-carved woman, but with some insect features, should be an insect man

In their mythology, the queen of worms is regarded as the ancestor." Utu replied.

Qi Xuansu sighed: "Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs."

After praying, the adult men of the village leave the village and begin the day of hunting, while the elders teach the children and teenagers some magical powers.

The insect man's magical powers are very confusing, even if it is a Dao Gate, he couldn't recognize it at the beginning, so he can also cultivate without taking "Tsukidan", but the effect is not so immediate.

At the same time, Qi Xuansu also opened the body and spirit of the ear aperture and could hear specific sounds.

Some of the children got impatient after listening for a while and began to pester the old man to talk about the outside world.

The old man said, "The outside world is very big, and it can easily go tens of thousands of miles, and it is impossible for a person to walk through it for a lifetime. And it's very dangerous outside, there are many alien races, and there are also demonic monks, who are extremely vicious."

A child asked, "What is a demonic monk?"

The old man said: "They occupy the Eastern Continent and the Southern Continent, and are divided into five demon sects according to the southeast, northwest, and northwest, and the one who rules our continent is the Western Demon Sect. The deputy head of the Western Demon Sect is called Gong Fu, who is good at using spells, burning mountains and boiling seas, and sucking souls. There is also a future Pope Leader, Huang Fu Ji, who has obtained the true inheritance of the current Pope Leader Shentai Zhenxiao, and his physique is comparable to that of an ancient beast, killing people like hemp."

The children were distracted, and after a while, they asked about other demon cults.

The old man said, "The other four Demon Sects are all in other continents, but there are often other Demon Dao cultivators who come to our continent, and not long ago, a Demon Emperor surnamed Qi came, although it cannot be compared with the sect leader of the Western Demon Sect, but it is not to be underestimated, it is said to be the young master of the Central Demon Sect."

A young man asked, "Grandpa the village chief, what is the Demon Emperor?" How are the Demon Cults classified?"

Although these insects are on other continents, they still maintain the habits of the Central Plains and regard this place as a village.

The old man stroked his beard and said, "The Demon Sect is divided into nine grades and twelve levels, the nine grades are the lowest, from the ninth rank to the fifth rank can only be regarded as a demon person, and only the fourth rank or above can be regarded as the high-level Demon Sect, the fourth grade is the demon master, the third grade is the demon spirit, the second grade is the demon king, and the second grade is divided into two kinds, the lower level is the demon king, and the higher level is called the demon emperor. There are also two kinds of products, the lower level is the Demon Sect, and the higher level is the Demon Venerable."

The children are stupid, it's so complicated. However, the child's curiosity was endless, and he asked, "Grandpa the village chief, is there anything higher above the Demon Venerable?"

The old man looked serious: "Of course, that's a superb, it's a demon saint." Fortunately, there is no Demon Saint in our continent, the Demon Saint is only in other continents, and it is said that the previous generation of Demon Saints has fallen, and the current Demon Sect only has Demon Venerable. There are many disagreements between these Demon Venerables, and they often fight each other, and this is our chance."

The child couldn't help but cheer, and one of the children asked, "Grandpa the village chief, how did the Demon Saint fall?"

The old man's serious face was a little reverent, and he said in a deep voice, "He was killed by our goddess Niangniang."

The children looked at the wooden carvings inside the shrine with reverence on their faces.

Qi Xuansu was also a little surprised and surprised, could the Demon Emperor surnamed Qi be him? The so-called Demon Saint can't be the Dao Sect Master Sect represented by the Xuan Saint, right?

really promoted him, and directly counted him as the Demon Emperor, which is equivalent to being promoted to a real person in advance, or a young master. I don't know if the earth master as the "Demon Venerable" recognizes this young master, and Zhou Mengyao, who is the "Demon Sect", recognizes this young master.

In the end, Qi Xuansu sighed with emotion: "Education has to start from the baby."

In the context of the insects, although the Daomen is sitting on the four seas, it oppresses the world and is unpopular. Although the Daomen has solved the problems that the previous dynasties have not been able to solve, the suppression of the insects is still evil, and all living beings do not want to overthrow the Daomen.

Utu said, "Qi Zhenren, don't you want to know the distribution of 'Tsukidan'? The main drama is coming soon."

Sure enough, the old man told the children a story for a while, taught the exercises, and then let the children practice for a while, and then they had to take a test.

He first lined up the children and teenagers, then took out a crystal ball and asked them to place their hands on it in turn.

Then the old man announced the results in turn.

A teenager puts his hand on a crystal ball.

"Yaotian, the early stage of Qi refining!"

Listening to the old man's voice, Yao Tian's face was expressionless, with a touch of self-deprecation at the corners of his mouth, but the five fingers hidden under the sleeves were clenched into fists so fiercely that his nails pierced into his palms, but he didn't realize it.

A taunt rang out beside him.

"Or the beginning? It's been so long, it's been a piece of rubbish."

"Xian'er will take a fancy to you, it's really blind."

"If it weren't for Xian'er's face, he would have kicked you out a long time ago, how could you have a chance to eat and drink here for nothing?"

Yao Tian lowered his head, not daring to look at these people, and silently retreated to the side, a little out of place with the people around him.

"Next, Jin Xian'er."

As the old man's voice sounded, a delicate girl stepped forward, slightly thin, with a pair of big dark eyes that were very smart. When she looked at Yaotian, she frowned slightly, unable to hide her concern.

Yaotian shook his head at her, signaling that he was fine.

Jin Xian'er put her hand on the crystal ball, and the old man said in a loud voice, "Jin Xian'er, the Qi Refining Period is a great consummation!"

For a moment, there was a sound of admiration.

That was the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Period! There is only one step left before the foundation building period, and looking at peers, it is also a rare existence.

Jin Xian'er ignored these admiration voices, walked quickly to Yao Tian's side, gently grabbed his arm, and comforted him softly.

Qi Xuansu took in the scene: "Utu, these children shouldn't be implanted with worm eggs."

Utu bowed his head slightly: "Please rest assured, leave it to me."
