Chapter 19: A Lesson of Great Significance

"Oh my, this high priest has such thick skin and an incredible ability to adapt; it honestly gives me chills!"

"Of course, for the high priests of all the major tribes, the most important thing when selecting a successor is to have a sharp mind."

"Otherwise, how could high priests from various tribes fool their tribe members into believing in a god that does not even exist?"

"In some tribes, they even use children and women to sacrifice to the gods, and no one dares to oppose it."

"The high priest may not be the smartest person in his tribe, but his intelligence and responsiveness are definitely among the top three in all the tribes."

"The smarter people are, the more they fear death. When this high priest sensed danger, he naturally chose to bow down to protect his life. After all, Yi Chen also offered him a way to maintain his power as the high priest."

The viewers in the live room were amazed.

"The most impressive, after all, is Yi Chen."

"This decisiveness, this ruthlessness, this dominance; it’s truly a case of being born in the wrong time! To be in an exile planet like this completely buries his heroic essence."

"What I admire the most is his courage and charisma."

"If it were us, we would definitely not believe in the existence of the gods. But don’t forget, Yi Chen was born and grew up in the tribe."

"In such an uncivilized tribe, the tribe members have an unwavering belief in the existence of the gods, and few ever question it."

"But Yi Chen not only doubts the existence of the gods; he even aims to replace them, subtly reminding the high priest that he can only mythologize him as a god!"

"It’s a pity that in this wild era, even in ancient times, if things went well, Yi Chen could have built an empire that combined divine and political power, relying on his talent, wisdom, and character."

Everyone felt regret for Yi Chen.

To have such heroic qualities and remarkable talents appear in a savage age is truly Yi Chen’s tragedy.

Even if Yi Chen could live to the age limit of 240, he could at most develop the Flame Mountain Tribe into a large tribe with tens of thousands of members.

…

Exile Planet.

Yi Chen and the high priest returned to the center of the valley.

The calmness was restored.

As the high priest announced that Yi Chen had revealed his divinity to him, it was confirmed that Yi Chen was indeed the incarnation of a god.

All the skills were gifts from the god to the tribe members.

The entire Flame Mountain Tribe erupted into cheers that shook the valley.

In just over ten minutes,

The high priest began to teach on-site, instructing the tribe members to learn and memorize the characters on the wall.

These incantations included Yi Chen’s understanding and insights about the natural laws, the characteristics of spirit energy in the world, and their operations.

Not to mention the tribe members of the Flame Mountain Tribe; even the high priest had only a half-hearted understanding.

Yi Chen could only wait for the tribe members to memorize both the incantations and the energy circulation pathways before he could explain them in unison.

He did not waste time staying in the valley to watch the high priest teach.

Nor did he return to the wooden house to practice.

He did not stay in the valley but headed straight to the forest to the south.

With a few powerful leaps, he jumped onto a towering tree that reached the clouds.

He then climbed higher and higher.

Finally, at the top of the tree, he found a branch as thick as a water barrel, leaned against the trunk, and sat cross-legged.

Above him were the blue sky and white clouds.

He gazed around, taking in the breathtaking scenery, with hundreds of kilometers of forest spread out before him.

He gently closed his eyes, quietly feeling the sharp autumn wind, trying to understand the flow and characteristics of the wind.

After breaking through to the first level of Spirit Release, his perception ability significantly improved.

His understanding of the wind became clearer and deeper.

…

"What’s going on? Why did he run to the forest to practice?"

"Yeah! When practicing, shouldn’t he be focusing and calm? Sitting so high, with the wind howling in his ears, how can he concentrate on his cultivation without worrying about falling?"

Yi Chen’s unusual behavior left the viewers in the live room confused.

But soon, an astute viewer discovered the reason.

"He’s not cultivating; the scanner shows there’s no spirit power flowing in his Qi Sea."

"If he’s not cultivating, then he’s trying to comprehend something?"

"Looks like he’s planning to create a new skill."

"I’m so excited! I wonder what new skill he wants to create!"

"He must have some inspiration!"

"By the way, the ‘Yiyao Skill Research Institute’ announced that they completed preparations and started creating and researching new skills several hours ago. Why haven’t they released any new skills yet?"

"I was just wondering the same! I check the Yiyao Group’s website every five minutes."

"It’s possible that the skills have been created, but they need time for testing."

"You have to understand that Yiyao Group is a pharmaceutical group. Pharmaceutical groups value rigor above all."

"Any new drug takes years or even decades from research and clinical trials to official release."

"Although the new skills won’t take as long, once they are created, they will definitely look for a group of people to test them and gather detailed data before making any announcements."

"If that’s the case, won’t we have to wait a while longer?"

"If things go quickly, maybe a few hours; if slowly, perhaps a day or two. After all, there are countless skill research institutes, and the ‘Yiyao Skill Research Institute’ was the first to announce its establishment and completion."

"They probably also want to be the first to release a new skill, so they won’t spend too much time on testing data."

"That would be great!"

Guessing that Yi Chen might be researching a new skill, the viewers in the live room chatted aimlessly, trying to pass the time.

Time flew by.

A few hours later, Yi Chen concluded his understanding of the wind.

He began to observe the birds and beasts in the forest.

He watched them fly and run.

He even used thorny fruit to provoke them to soar and flee.

As night fell and visibility dimmed, he returned to sensing the characteristics of the wind.

This cycle continued.

On the afternoon of the second day, Yi Chen paused his observations and returned to the Flame Mountain Tribe.

The progress was quite good.

After a day and a half, most of the tribe members managed to memorize the chants and the pathway of energy circulation of the Chaos Technique through sheer rote learning.

Only a few elders and children could remember only a portion.

Yi Chen didn’t wait any longer.

He gathered all those who memorized the Chaos Technique and began to explain its key points, important notes, and how to practice, including the problems that might arise during cultivation.

This was crucial for his own interests.

Yi Chen invested tremendous energy and patience, leaving no detail overlooked and answering every question.

He taught from the afternoon until deep into the night.

Only when some of the more perceptive individuals fully grasped the Chaos Technique and could teach those who still didn’t understand did Yi Chen return to the forest to continue his study of the wind.

…

"This teaching session is truly significant!"

"Exactly! Yi Chen’s lecture opened the path for humanity’s cultivation on the exile planet. Even if Yi Chen never teaches other skills again, the Chaos Technique will likely be passed down. Hundreds of years later, it may spread across the entire exile planet."

"I’m starting to envy the tribe members of the Flame Mountain Tribe. Even though we began practicing the Chaos Technique two months ago, and others started once they learned they could double their lifespan, we are essentially learning by stealing knowledge."

"The tribe members of the Flame Mountain Tribe are the ones with the true lineage."

"Who cares if it’s orthodox or learned? As long as we can learn it! What’s bothering me most is that it’s been over a day, and still, none of the Yiyao Skill Research Institute or any other newly established research institutes have announced any new skills!"

"Yeah! It’s been over a day; who knows how far they’ve progressed!"

The viewers in the live room were captivated by Yi Chen’s teaching and gained a lot from it, yet they were not as excited as the tribe members of the Flame Mountain Tribe.

They eagerly awaited news of a new skill that would surpass the Chaos Technique, but none of the research institutes had released anything yet.
