Chapter 236 Yuyi Tribe
Just as Su Qingwu expected, although the Yuyi people in this world look the same as humans, they are not humans in essence.
The tribe's homeland was originally in the Mozhi Mountains.
However, as the terrain changed and volcanoes erupted frequently, this place was no longer suitable for this tribe to survive.
About six thousand years ago, the Yuyi tribe migrated as a whole to the Fuling Plain, two thousand miles to the southeast.
The four also mentioned that the Yuyi tribe has a long history. According to legend, their ancestors all had wings on their backs and were extremely powerful. Sacrificial offerings are popular within the tribe.
Today, the tribe's treasure, the Canglan Di, was created through sacrifice.
Legend has it that this treasure has a long history, originating from the Middle Ages.
Treasures have spirits, and they are not easily revealed to the world.
......
After one stick of incense, the four Fanxu left along the same path they came.
Not long after, Kong Jiu and Su Wen returned to Su Qingwu one after another.
She told them everything she had heard.
Kong Jiu asked bluntly: "Master, are you planning to go to Fuling Plain?"
Su Qingwu nodded and said, "That's exactly what I meant."
On the side, Su Wen spoke at the right time: "I found some traces of sacrificial remains in the Mozhi Mountains. Judging from the appearance, it seems that they were left over in the last hundred years, not six thousand years ago."
Su Qingwu was quite surprised to hear this.
"Could it be that the Yuyi tribe returns here regularly? Is it possible that they were left here by the mortal tribe?"
Su Wen shook his head and explained:
"That place is far away from the mortal tribes. Moreover, I have carefully observed that those mortal tribes all have dedicated altars built. It is unlikely that they would go to a very far place to perform sacrifices."
"Where exactly is the place you are talking about?"
"Go north from here, about 700 miles away, there is a very hidden cave."
"Okay, let's go over and take a look."
......
About twenty breaths later, Su Qingwu arrived at the corresponding area.
Su Wen walked in front, casting a spell to bring up a spiritual force, pulling apart the thick vines and weeds that blocked the cave below.
"It's right here. There's a lot of space inside. I've been in there before and I don't see any danger at the moment."
After listening to this, Su Qingwu nodded slightly, then used his spiritual sense to sense, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he immediately flew inside.
The first thing that comes into view is an altar.
The overall shape is round, and the base is made of jade.
From bottom to top, the nine-story stone staircase gradually shrinks, and the vertical surface of each floor is engraved with intricate totems.
Perhaps due to its age, the edges of the totem have been worn down a lot, making it impossible to discern its specific content.
There are various utensils on the altar.
There are bronze bells, jade chimes, magic swords, bronze tripods, jade bi disks and incense candles.
Each piece of equipment is engraved with intricate symbols.
The line of sight continued forward, and on the stone wall, there was an exquisitely carved image of a red jade flute.
This jade flute is exactly the same as the one seen in the memory fragments of the Soul Mist Swamp and the Li Xin Fantasy. It is the treasure of the Yuyi tribe, the Canglan Flute.
Looking around, we found that this cave was not formed naturally, but was dug by humans.
Because no one has been here for a long time, spider webs have formed in many places.
The colorful spiders crawl around, and occasionally a flying insect is caught in the web. When the spiders sense the movement, they will immediately crawl over and swallow the prey.
This spider's tape is somewhat poisonous.
The reason why Su Wen said there was no danger here was because he knew in his heart that these spiders could not hurt Su Qingwu.
The entire cave is extremely spacious and can accommodate tens of thousands of people standing at the same time.
Some water accumulation can be seen in the low places, and the overall environment is quite humid.
Because there is no barrier at the entrance of the cave and the terrain is relatively low, once it rains outside, a lot of rain water will be washed in.
His gaze returned to the altar, and judging by the few traces that had already been seen, this place certainly didn't look like something that had been left over from six thousand years ago.
However...
In Su Qingwu's opinion, even though some people have come here in recent years, there are very few of them, and they do not take it very seriously.
In other words, the visitor does not have the ability to handle it.
The Yuyi tribe can also practice. As long as they master the basic techniques, arrange the dust removal technique, and set up a ban at the cave entrance, it is not a difficult task.
If these two points were achieved, the situation inside the cave would not be like it is now.
If it is really the Yuyi people who came here, then it is most likely an individual act and not the intention of the entire tribe.
When she expressed this idea, Su Wen and Kong Jiu both agreed with her and had no different opinions.
There is nothing here except the altar.
Su Qingwu continued to observe for a while, confirmed that there was nothing unusual, and then left the place, flying all the way southeast to Fuling Plain.
In order to investigate the situation along the way, she deliberately slowed down her speed.
Along the way, we encountered many monks and mortals, and there were also a few local forces.
Some are located deep in the mountains; some are located on islands in the middle of large lakes.
......
After two cups of tea, the coffin was carried to the plain.
When he came here, Su Qingwu discovered many spirit beasts.
There is more than one beast-controlling family here.
A winding middle-grade spiritual vein spans the entire Fuling Plain. All forces have built their bases on the spiritual vein, with each territorial division being clearly defined.
The closer you are to the corresponding area, the more spiritual energy you'll find.
In the world of cultivating immortals, spiritual veins are of vital importance. Whether it is spiritual stones or the spiritual energy that permeates the world, they all originate from here.
Su Qingwu once knew about the situation of the spiritual veins in the Yuanji World.
There are tens of thousands of spiritual veins in the five continents.
Thirty percent of it is used for mining to form the universal currency Lingshi.
The remaining 70% is occupied by various forces and serves as the base for establishment.
In addition, spiritual veins also have different grades, just like spiritual stones, which are divided into four grades: low, medium, high, and extreme.
There are two criteria for dividing each level: one is the concentration of spiritual energy, and the other is the scale.
Normally, the top-ranking forces in the five continents occupy the best spiritual veins and monopolize an entire vein, never allowing other forces to interfere.
As for the top-grade spiritual veins, they are usually occupied by the second-grade forces.
If there is any surplus, the third-grade forces can also get a share, but they do not have the ability to monopolize the whole thing and need to share it with other forces.
This is especially true for those below the third rank...
After arriving at the Fuling Plain, Su Qingwu, Su Wen and Kong Jiu acted separately. After about three incense sticks, they found traces of the Yuyi tribe.
The clan occupies about 10% of the middle-grade spiritual veins. When they tried to sneak in, they found that there were many traps.
The language of this tribe is not common to that of humans and is difficult to understand.
Therefore, there was no opportunity to find out the news.
Su Qingwu stayed here for several days. On the seventh day, the chief of the Yuyi tribe entertained a second-rank powerful cultivator who came to visit. Both sides used the human language when talking.
She hid in the dark and heard some news that was related to the jade flute.
The purpose of the visitor is to borrow the town clan's treasure!
Chief Yuyi naturally did not agree, and the two sides parted unhappily.
Before leaving, the visiting monks made it clear that more people would come later.
Chief Yuyi looked extremely upset, and after the man left, he smashed many items in the house.
Soon after, many Yuyi people approached him, mumbling something that Su Qingwu could not understand. Judging from their expressions, they seemed to be trying to comfort him.
That afternoon, three more monks came to visit, all of them had reached the level of Divine Transformation.
The purpose of the visitor was the same as before, to borrow the treasure of the town clan.
Unexpectedly, this time, Chief Yuyi agreed to their request.
