Chapter 78: Zhou World - 78
With his new breakthrough, Zhou Fan was confident in creating a mortal Dao. Although eager to test his strength, the knowledge of the Dao was filling his entire mind. He was unable to resist the urge to express that knowledge by creating a mortal Dao.
He instantly appeared at the core of the world he gave life too. He stretched out his hand and grabbed the core. He then crushed it into dust, maintaining the coreless word with his own power.
He then used all of his power and knowledge in order to form a small gray sphere where the core once was. As he poured more Qi and knowledge into it, the gray core started to expand.
Before it reached half of the size of the old core, Zhou Fan was nearly depleted of Qi. In a frenzy of desperation and slight madness that the knowledge filling his mind caused, Zhou Fan opened his mouth and started to suck Chaos Qi from the universe. A storm was caused by the rapid absorption of Qi by Zhou Fan. If not for his subconscious protection, the world would have been grinded to dust.
Blood started to pour from Zhou Fans' cracked skin and his eyes as he attempted to form the Mortal Dao. He was almost on his last breath when he finally stopped. In an instant, the cracked space and the storm fixed itself and ceased.
Zhou Fan was panting on the ground as he stared at the big gray core floating in the center of the world. He was unable to even heal himself as he slowly slipped into unconsciousness.
--------------------
Zhou Fans' closed eyes snapped open. He had spent the last year unconscious and healing due to his heavy injuries. It was a miracle that his cultivation wasn't hurt.
Zhou Fan stood up and looked at the gray core floating in the air. He felt a connection with it that he had never felt in anything else before. It was as if the core was a literal part of him.
Even with just a glance, Zhou Fan was able to tell that he had full control of the core, as if it was his arm. Even so, he let it float there. He had nothing to do with it and even if he did, he would endanger the structure of the world now that it had fused with it.
Zhou Fan looked forward to the future of the world now. Since it had fused with his mortal Dao, it was something that would grow as Zhou Fan did. That also meant that he needed to protect the world. If it was ever destroyed, he would be seriously injured. Far more injured than he was previously.
Another thing to note was that the core was identical to his. It seemed that he instinctually made it the same. Of course, it was much stronger than his core.
After staring at the core for a while, Zhou Fan laid hundreds of formations around it. Although he had said that he would be injured if the world was destroyed, it was more accurate to say that he would be injured if the core was destroyed. Also, as long as the core was intact, the world would live on.
Before leaving the core, Zhou Fan decided to name the planet. It would likely be with him for a long time. After thinking, he decided to call it the Zhou world.
He then left the core and journeyed to the top. For some reason, the journey up took much longer than before. Zhou Fan even sped up when he didn't reach the top after a minute had passed.
He eventually decided to release his divine sense and teleport to the surface. When he appeared, the sight that greeted him was unexpected. Vast lands expanded past eyeshot. Great trees stood near Zhou Fan.
The only problem was that trees that big had never existed on the Zhou World. Zhou Fan once again released his divine sense across the world, this time taking a moment to see what was happening.
In an instant, Zhou Fan was dumbfounded. The Zhou World which once could only be considered a medium size planet had grown much bigger. The stars that once towered over the planets were now only equal in size to the Zhou World.
With his new breakthrough, such a size wasn't something too incredible for him. Even so, Zhou Fan couldn't get over the fact that the planet had grown so much. Naturally, only one thing could have caused it. Zhou Fans mortal Dao.
The planet must have grown in size because it wasn't able to hold that much power within it. Although astonished, Zhou Fan quickly accepted it. Unusual occurrences weren't uncommon to Zhou Fan at this point.
Not to mention, the world getting bigger was the only unusual occurrence. There were still only four great creatures and they hadn't grown or anything. None of the animals had gotten much bigger, nor had there been any new species.
The only difference with the animals was that the populations had increased. The increase wasn't anything outstanding either. In fact, Zhou Fan would need to personally act in order to fill the world with animals. Most of the current world was empty due to the sudden increase in size.
The supreme beasts were having a blast with the increased size, however. After looking around and admiring the beauty of the new world, Zhou Fan got to work.
He first tested his new power after breaking into the lesser Dao creation realm. He was now able to move at 10,000 light years a minute! Although tempted to explore the rest of the galaxy, Zhou Fan didn't. He had too much to do on the Zhou World.
As for his strength, Zhou Fan didn't even test it. He may end up destroying the solar system if he did. The next order of business was to increase the world's population. Once again, the world was covered in life Qi, sparing only the four supreme beasts.
Chapter 79: Celestials - 79
Due to the fact that Zhou Fan was much stronger than before, the animals around the world reproduced much faster. Although it was hard on the mothers and fathers, they were able to withstand it thanks to the Life Qi.
After he finished spreading Life Qi around the world, Zhou Fan went to look at the supreme beasts that had been born in the Zhou World.
Although they had previously been able to split up the world between each other, they now didn't occupy even 1% of it.
Even if they spent their entire lives traveling around the world, they wouldn't make it halfway.
One thing Zhou Fan was able to figure out was the lifespan of these supreme beasts. Although thousands of years had passed, this was only the second generation. Not to mention the fact that the new ones were only 100 years old.
Zhou Fan expected there to be many more supreme beasts after a couple of years. It would be weird if there wasn't any more after the expansion of the world.
What Zhou Fan was more interested in was creating a human-like race. That had been his goal for a while, but he wasn't quite sure how to go about it.
A major issue was intelligence. The supreme beasts of the Zhou world were about as intelligent as humans, but they weren't able to reproduce more than one offspring.
What Zhou Fan wanted was a race that were able to reproduce like humans while also being much more powerful. Of course, he would introduce cultivation to them, but he wanted them to be born stronger than a normal human.
With his current power, such a thing wouldn't be difficult at all. The biggest matter was how powerful he could make them.
Zhou Fan was aiming for them to be born with the strength of core formation, without the use of Qi. With that, they would be much stronger than any other existence in the same realm.
The only race that may be able to contend with them was humans. Although they had shown many weaknesses in Zhou Fan's lifetime, Zhou Fan believed that humans were a one of a kind race.
After all, he was born from humans. Although someone like him may never be born again, someone almost as good as him might.
Many times, Zhou Fan had thought about whether he was an unnatural creation. He had considered that he could be the son of the universe or a personification of the cosmic Dao.
In the end, however, he chose to believe that he was a freak accident. It was likely that he was born from pure chance. He was born without a destiny or reason for life.
But he couldn't be sure.
Anyway, Zhou Fan didn't believe for a second that he could emulate the human race. But he may be able to create a very similar race, and maybe one day they would become similar to humans with their seemingly infinite potential.
It seemed that it would rely on chance.
As for creating the race, Zhou Fan decided to use a piece of his mind to give them true consciousness. Their intelligence would be even greater than humans. As for the reproduction problem, Zhou Fan had a couple of ideas.
Zhou Fan reached into the ocean and pulled out two microorganisms. Instead of crudely applying Life Qi and seeing what happens, Zhou Fan guided them through the process.
He guided the form they would take and the traits they would have, all while applying various Qi's to them. Like humans, they would have the potential to use every type of Qi.
After thinking for a bit, Zhou Fan designed them to have a body shape very similar to humans, but to have some of their features different.
Instead of the various hairstyles and colors that humans have, the new race would have white hair that would always grow out to be fairly long unless they really wanted it short. The white hair would be pure and beautiful, while being more masculine or feminine depending on the gender.
Next, their eyes would only have two colors: red and purple. Red would represent males while purple would represent females.
The red would be deep and cosmic, while the purple would also be deep and cosmic.
With some slight changes to some unimportant features, Zhou Fan finished designing his new race.
He would call them 'celestials'.
All that was left was to have them grow out into their forms. With an immense burst of Life Qi, the tiny organisms ballooned up into their celestial forms.
One, with red eyes, was a male. The other, with purple eyes, was a female. Before they gained consciousness, Zhou Fan teleported them to a garden that he had set up not too long ago.
It was on the other side of the world where animals had not yet been born. All that was there was a bunch of fruits and vegetables. They wouldn't be a vegan race, but Zhou Fan decided to let them be alone for now.
As he sent them away, Zhou Fan implanted the English language and the name of their race into their minds.
He also created two books and teleported them onto the ground next to them. That book would teach them cultivation and many different things such as forging, concocting, and formations.
They didn't really need cultivation to survive in the current world due to their bodies which already had the strength of a core formation cultivator, but Zhou Fan didn't plan to have them as the sole cultivators in the world.
He also implanted basic cultivation knowledge into every animal's mind, including the supreme beasts. Every animal or supreme beast born in the future would have that knowledge in their minds.
As for Qi, Zhou Fan quickly set up a Qi producing array that would produce absorbable Qi throughout the world. It would last years and years.
Now, all that was left was to wait.
