Chapter 829 - 810: Strongest Fox Spirit 10
When Anning had settled all the little demons around Xuanyuan Tomb, she used the excuse of traveling to wander the mortal world with the gathered grain seeds.
At this time, the Xia Dynasty had not yet been established, and the lives of the Human Clan were quite difficult.
Their productivity was low; although they had begun to plant crops, due to improper planting methods and the lack of tools, the yields from the fields were very poor, insufficient to sustain them.
Anning brought grain seeds to a small tribe in the mortal world.
She made a great effort to integrate into the tribe and began teaching them how to plant. She personally planted crops, optimized the grain seeds, and taught the people how to observe the weather and make tools.
At this time, houses of the Human Clan were low thatched huts; for the most part, a deep pit was dug, leveled off, and a house was built on top.
This method of building houses was labor-saving but prone to dampness, with many insects and ants inside, making it very uncomfortable to live in.
After Anning arrived at this tribe, she taught them to make adobe bricks, bake tiles, and build tall walls around, constructing many beautiful houses, greatly improving the living conditions of the people here.
Besides this, she also taught some clever people in the tribe how to identify herbs, diagnose illnesses, and more.
Because of Anning, this small tribe developed into a large tribe in just ten years.
This tribe became the richest and most powerful one nearby, with countless smaller tribes coming to join for better lives.
Watching the tribe grow stronger, Anning left one night without saying goodbye.
During the ten years, people of the tribe had already revered Anning as a deity.
After her departure, many began to worship her effigy.
Anning did not return but went to another distant tribe.
She stayed there for another ten years, teaching the tribe’s people how to spin and weave, modifying the weaving tools to make the process simpler and more efficient.
In this way, in fifty years, Anning led several tribes in their development and expansion.
On that land, people’s grain production increased, they learned to make salt, build beautiful houses, weave cloth, and also how to heal.
In essence, Anning sowed the seeds of civilization in the mortal world, waiting for future fruition and harvest.
After completing all this, she returned to Xuanyuan Tomb and spent another hundred years striving to improve her cultivation, helping Feng Anan and Shi Antian also improve their cultivation so that the two became Heavenly Immortals within a hundred years.
The little fox spirits around Xuanyuan Tomb all successfully transformed.
Besides teaching these little demons to cultivate.
Anning occasionally told them stories.
These little demons were too innocent, and Anning feared they would be exploited, so she taught them much through stories.
Anning told them about the rise and fall of dynasties, tales of city life, and many family matters.
She taught these little demons for a whole hundred years, during which the Xia Dynasty was established.
Anning also took some of the little demons to the mortal world, letting them witness the schemes and machinations within the Human Clan, and the dubious minds of men.
The demons around Xuanyuan Tomb, influenced by Anning, transformed quickly and were no longer as naive.
They did not harm humans, but neither could they be easily deceived.
Seeing the success of her teachings, Anning felt very gratified.
Furthermore, with the pheasant spirit and Pipa Spirit’s cultivation levels rising steadily, Anning felt secure about their safety before the advent of the Divine Enthronement Tribulation and decided to leave.
The little demons were, of course, reluctant to see her go.
The transformed fox spirits gathered around Anning.
Fox spirits are inherently beautiful, with the males handsome and the females alluring; they surrounded her, chattering nonstop, "Ancestor, you can’t leave us like this."
"Ancestor, what will we do if you leave?"
"Ancestor, did someone upset you?"
Feng Anan and Shi Antian caught wind of this and came running as well.
They clung to Anning, unwilling to let her leave: "Sister, why do you want to go? Isn’t it wonderful living here? It’s so carefree here. Where else do you want to go? If you want to travel in the mortal world, we sisters can accompany you."
Anning comforted them with a smile.
"I’m not going to the mortal world, but..."
She whispered in their ears, "You know that our Demon Clan has struggled to survive since the last Demon Witch Calamity. We with our paltry cultivation are nothing before those mighty beings. It’s peaceful here now, but if one day a mighty being takes a fancy to our land, we would have no choice but to yield, and our lives would be at stake. I was always uneasy, so I traveled the world. Who would’ve thought, I really did land a big backer."
"What big backer?"
Feng Anan curiously asked.
Anning’s voice dropped even lower: "I was found by someone from Biyou Palace. You know, that is the territory of the Three Pure Ones. I even met the Tongtian Sect Leader, and then..."
Anning looked around to confirm no one was nearby: "I got to know the Tongtian Sect Leader’s brother. He fell in love with me at first sight, and we have privately pledged ourselves to each other. I was just worried about you all, so I came back, but now it’s been nearly two hundred years since I left him. If I don’t return, there may be unexpected changes; if a little demon seduces him, imagine the loss for our sisters."
Feng Anan and Shi Antian were so stunned they were at a loss.
They almost felt they were dreaming.
They thought Anning might be speaking nonsense.
Good heavens, a Saint.
The Three Pure Ones were like untouchable existences to them, beings they dared not even think of.
Yet, their sister had met them.
Not only met a Saint, but also wooed away the Saint’s brother in his own territory.
Their sister’s abilities truly were impressive.
But why did it seem so unreal?
Anning patted the little demons’ heads: "Everything I said is true."
She shook the ring on her hand: "This was a gift from a Saint."
The ring was indeed a rare treasure, something the little demons knew they could never obtain, so they began to believe.
"It’s not easy to have a powerful supporter. Once we have them, we must not let go. We must fight with all we have to carve out a path."
Anning squinted her eyes, with an increasingly resolute tone: "Sisters, I must return early to keep watch, and wait until I am powerful enough to protect you all. Then we won’t have to part again."
Feng Anan and Shi Antian nodded repeatedly.
Among the three demons, Anning had the greatest ability and was the smartest. They had always trusted their sister’s words, so no one opposed after Anning spoke.
"Stay at home and keep things in order, take care of those little demons."
Anning gave a final whisper: "And remember, if Empress Nuwa calls on you in the future, you must let me know, and be very cautious."
Afterwards, with Feng Anan and Shi Antian calming the little demons, Anning was able to slip away.
Anning returned to Yingzhou Island, and for the following centuries, remained in seclusion and cultivation there.
During these centuries, Xiao Yuan frequented Biyou Palace or Yuxu Palace.
Through Xiao Yuan’s occasional interventions, the disciples of the Jie and Chan Sects interacted more closely, and with the leniency of the Sect Leaders, their disciples mingled almost like fellow sect members.
They did not only eat, drink, and have fun together, but also went out to fight monsters and find treasures, always going in groups. Sometimes one would save another, and sometimes someone would lend a hand, strengthening their bond over time.
During these centuries, Anning’s cultivation advanced at rocket speed, rapidly leveling up.
When she emerged from seclusion, she had advanced to Taiyin Golden Immortal.
This level of cultivation was commendable in the current Primordial Land.
Keep in mind, the Quasi-Saints were already very few, and Daluo Golden Immortals were precious. A Taiyin Golden Immortal like Anning was among the top tier.
