At that time, many of his followers died from nature and wild animals, including disease outbreaks, until his followers decreased drastically. 

Because of the special power on this island. He returned to Mount Raung to avoid more casualties. then he meditated to get further guidance in establishing a new settlement in a place with this special power.

He also received instructions, namely that he had to plant the 5 elements in the highest place in the area, because this area contains very strong energy which must be neutralized with these 5 elements. 

He left after receiving the instructions by only inviting 200 of his followers to avoid more victims if something dangerous happened.He returned to his original camp and from here he opened the road to Mount Agung, the highest mountain. The holy data collector was named: Rsi Markandya, one of the Rsi from India who lived in East Java.

 He and his followers succeeded in reaching this mountain and planting these 5 elements. and established settlements around this area. Since these 5 elements were planted, the Balinese population began to be created.
