You, a druid, go to practice Taoism?

After leaving the Yunwu Mountains, Qi Ping went to the gathering place of several ordinary cultivators and some mortal families.

The place that used to be very lively and full of smoke and fire was now almost deserted, with only a few houses still alive.

In some places, there were even corpses that were almost eaten to the point of only bones.

What was even more sad was that in such a village, no one collected such corpses, as if they were piled up wherever they died.

These corpses included cultivators, mortals, adults, and children.

But under the demon insects, it seemed that there was no difference, except that they were all food for the demon insects.

Qi Ping originally thought that the Yunwu Mountains were already desolate enough, but when he saw these small villages, he realized what the unbearable world was and what it meant to be dead.

There were not many living people left!

Qi Ping did not expect that Qingshi County would become like this in such a short time!

Fortunately, he had already let Old Man Zhou return to the mortal world. Otherwise, even with his protection, it is hard to say whether Old Man Zhou's small body can withstand this disaster.

"Has the world become so difficult?"

At this moment, Qi Ping truly felt what it meant to be:

Out of one's control! Life is worthless!

Then Qi Ping quietly went to the residences of the three major families to take a look.

The residences of the three major families, Liu, Zhu, and Murong, were still bustling and luxurious, and even seemed to be more popular than before.

But after a closer look, Qi Ping also found that the security of the three major families was much stricter than before, and those guards occasionally flashed solemn and worried expressions on their faces.

From this point, it can be seen that the situation of the three major families does not seem to be easy.

Among them, the Murong family, which had a foundation-building cultivator poisoned to death by the magic insect, showed the most obvious performance.

And the seemingly prosperous three major families are nothing more than the momentum created by many casual cultivators joining them.

According to the information Qi Ping received, at the beginning of the birth of the demon worms, the three major families were the main force in eliminating the demon worms.

At that time, they were everywhere in Qingshi County, eliminating the demon worms.

If they had not killed most of the demon worms, the number of people who died in Qingshi County from the demon worms would have increased several times!

In order to eliminate the demon worms, the three major families also paid a considerable price, and more than ten of the late-stage Qi-refining cultivators in the family died in the battle.

It was not until a foundation-building elder of the Murong family died of poisoning in the battle with the demon worms that the three major families returned to defend the clan land with all their strength.

Now they absorb scattered cultivators to build fortifications and formations with all their strength, which is also a last resort after the family's strength declines.

This is not to say how noble the three major families are, but the numerous scattered cultivators and prosperity of Qingshi County are their real wealth. As long as Qingshi County continues to prosper, they can obtain a steady stream of wealth through rent, taxes, and commercial trade.

After all, the world of cultivating immortals does not lack a Qingtian domain, let alone a Qingshi County!

To some extent, independent cultivators also have a certain degree of freedom, because the world of immortal cultivation is so large that there is always a suitable place to go.

The top is also under pressure from the Righteous Alliance, which prohibits anyone from slaughtering independent cultivators and mortals on a large scale, otherwise they will be killed by the Righteous Alliance!

Those who dare to blatantly violate these rules, let alone ordinary families, even Mahayana cultivators may be killed together!

This rule that has existed in the world of immortal cultivation since ancient times may be the reason why the living environment of mortals and independent cultivators is difficult but also endless.

In order to attract more cultivators to settle in, some sects will also offer various welfare policies.

Because the prosperity of cultivators means more income from spirit stones, and the increase in the number of people also means that the probability of the birth of geniuses will increase, which is another basis for the prosperity of the sect.

Although there are also some xenophobic and self-willed sects in the world of immortal cultivation, they have basically been eliminated in the torrent of time.

Although the three major families are also willing to maintain the order of Qingshi County, unfortunately, they are doomed to lose the prosperity of Qingshi County when they are threatened.

In addition to the three major families absorbing independent cultivators to build defensive fortifications and formations for self-protection, Qi Ping found a figure in Zhu's family:

Wang Shan!

This big brother was wearing magic weapon armor and patrolling near Zhu's family as a member of the patrol team.

This big brother followed the patrol team with a solemn expression, lacking the free and easy attitude of the past.

Perhaps compared to this kind of work that requires discipline, continuing to raise golden-feathered chickens and blue-feathered chickens in the mountains is the most suitable for him.

But in such a world, perhaps this is the safest choice for him. It is safer to be in the residence of the three major families than to be an independent cultivator.

Qi Ping did not say much about Wang Shan's choice. This is his choice.

Wang Shan said that his children were talented and that he himself had no hope, so he had to provide a platform for his children anyway. His biggest wish at the moment was to give them a higher starting point.

But Wang Shan never said what kind of talents his children had.

Qi Ping had no desire or intention to interfere with other people's choices, so he could only secretly wish Wang Shan good luck.

If Wang Shan or his children needed help in the future, he would not mind helping them. In the past five years, he had received a lot of help from Wang Shan, and there was still a friendship.

After flying away from the three major families, Qi Ping flew directly to Qingshifang City.

But Qi Ping's heart was not at peace at the moment.

The current situation of Qingshi County has brought him a great shock, which made him feel restless for a long time.

"The world is unpredictable, disasters are rampant, and life and death are not in our own hands!"

"Only by seeking immortality and invincibility can we not be controlled by the world, not be burdened by disasters, and not be oppressed by power"

"But before that, I still need to be cautious step by step, so that I can step on the road of immortality and invincibility step by step."

At this moment, the six words of immortality and invincibility gradually engraved into Qi Ping's heart.

The whole person's temperament has gradually undergone a deep and essential change.

Not long after, far away from Qingshifang City, Qi Ping performed the bone shrinking skill, and his face and figure turned into a middle-aged uncle with a firm face.

This is the new identity Qi Ping set for himself. The middle-aged uncle is always more low-key than the handsome boy.

But after changing back to a human body, Qi Ping felt that his body seemed to be a little different.

"My control over my spiritual power and body seems to have improved a lot. Is it because of the change in my state of mind just now?"

Because after the change in his state of mind just now, Qi Ping also faintly sensed something similar to the sword intent in himself, but it was not the sword intent, but just something similar to the sword intent.

"Maybe I am slowly finding my own way, and one day, I will also comprehend my own will!"

After taking a few deep breaths, Qi Ping found that [Natural Perception] did not give him any danger warning, so he stepped into the Qingshifang City with confidence.

He still has a lot to do this time.

"I hope this time there will be a surprising harvest!"
