Chapter 111: The Moon - 111
9,999 years later, Zhou Fan opened his eyes. Within them was an immense amount of power that couldn't be matched by any other.
Zhou Fan had broken into the fourth level of the lesser Dao creation realm and his power had increased greatly.
Zhou Fan didn't bother to leave the palace and instead scanned the entire world with his divine sense. Nothing much had changed in the past years besides the rulers breaking through a couple levels. Anna is now at the 8th level of void traversing along with the dragon king. The monkey king is now at the 6th level of void traversing. Finally, the titanosaur is at the 5th level of void traversing.
Zhou Fan looked at all the opportunities he had placed and saw that not a single one had been obtained. He specifically looked at the mermaids to see if they had progressed as a race, but they had merely started to form an intelligent society.
They still knew very little about cultivation and the strongest member of the race was at core formation.
Despite their little progress, Zhou Fan was happy to see that they had started building structures like houses and castles.
Zhou Fan also saw a building surrounding the area that the trident existed in. It was circular and had walls with arching holes in it. Anyone could freely enter and there were only a few guards to make sure the area was peaceful.
Zhou Fan could assume that the place was very popular at one point due to the prophecy on the tablet, but had become less popular as no one had been able to pull it.
While the trident would eventually be of great help to the mermaid race, it was only holding them back right now.
Until someone talented enough came along, the mermaid race would forever remain unknown at the bottom of the sea.
However, once they got a king, their rise to power would be legendary and they would undoubtedly become a new land alongside the beasts, supreme beasts, celestials, and dinosaurs.
Zhou Fan moved on from the mermaid race and looked at the shield dungeon he had made.
It had now become a legend of the entire dinosaur race, especially when the titanosaur attempted the dungeon and only got to the 7th layer.
They had been attempting to keep information from the dungeon under wraps, but eventually, all the races would know about the dungeon and its strength.
The rest of the opportunities also hadn't changed at all and Zhou Fan started to decide whether or not the grim reaper would appear now.
The world would be expanding soon and Zhou Fan would have to wait anyway, but he felt that they would become prepared and ready if death came every 10,000 years exactly.
Therefore, Zhou Fan chose to have death not appear until the next breakthrough, and instead do something else as he waited 10 years for the world to expand.
Zhou Fan thought about adding more opportunities or trying to create another race, but he felt that he should leave things as they are for now.
He had to sit and think for a while before he came up with an idea. The Zhou World had one moon, but it was now tiny compared to the size of the planet. The rulers had been up there, but they hadn't seen any value in caring about the moon and left it alone.
Zhou Fan's idea was to create another moon that would replace the other moon. Zhou Fan didn't know what material he would use to make it, but he wanted to make it out of the same material the current moon is made out of.
Zhou Fan got to action and teleported out of his palace and onto the moon. He grabbed a handful of the material and sensed its properties. The main difference between earth rock and moon rock was lunar Qi. Theoretically, any rock with lunar Qi could be considered moon rock.
However, there were also some structural differences that couldn't be ignored. If Zhou Fan wanted to transform some of the Zhou Worlds rocks into moon rock, he would have to study the differences and carefully make the changes.
Unfortunately, Zhou Fan still wasn't able to make something from nothing. Otherwise, the solution would be much simpler.
Zhou Fan held on to a handful of moon rocks and teleported to the core of the Zhou World. He looked around for a bit before he discovered the material with the highest similarity to a moon rock.
Before adding lunar Qi, Zhou Fan chose to do the hard part first. He held the rock in his hand and stared at it intensely. What Zhou Fan was doing was changing the very existence of something.
After a minute, small changes were happening to the appearance of the rock in Zhou Fan's hand. After 5 minutes, the rock had completely changed, now bearing much more similarity to a moon rock.
Zhou Fan didn't have to think a second before he added a bunch of lunar Qi to the rock. The rock, which had only had a 90% similarity to the moon rock, now seemed like an exact replica.
Since the material was from the center of the earth, it was actually much stronger than the moon rock from the moon. Naturally, the rock that Zhou Fan transformed would be in the moon's core.
Now that he had successfully done it once, the rest would be much easier. Zhou Fan took a couple hundred mountains that no one would miss and transformed them all into moon rock.
The process took a single day before Zhou Fan had enough moon rock to create a moon. Zhou Fan flew into the skies and found a nice position within the Zhou Worlds orbit.
Zhou Fan wouldn't replace the other moon, but create a second one. The moon rock that Zhou Fan had condensed to fit in the palm of his hand started to expand larger and larger, eventually becoming noticeable to some eyes below.
Chapter 112: New Invention - 112
In the middle of the night, many people of the Zhou World saw a strange glow from outside their houses.
Curious, they looked outside their windows, only to see an expanding circle in the night sky. The people were shocked and many ran inside to wake everyone up.
Within five minutes, the moon had expanded to a size that made it proportional to the earth's moon.
Zhou Fan stopped expanding it as it reached that size since he had only planned to make it that big in the first place. The size of the moon was 5 times the earth's size.
Although Zhou Fan had some more plans for the moon, he felt a couple of presences traveling towards the moon. The presences were every void traversing cultivator in the Zhou World.
Zhou Fan had no choice but to evacuate the moon and teleport back to his floating palace. from there, he observed what transpired on the moon.
At first, the void traversing cultivators approached the moon with curiosity, but they soon got into a heated argument about who owns what.
Anna and the dragon king naturally had the advantage in the arguments, but they had made many agreements with the other rulers about fairness. Among them was a rule that said they could not threaten to use their strength in order to get benefits.
Although no one could stop them if they broke the agreement, even their own people would look down on them if they did.
In the end, the rulers decided to leave half the moon untouched, and split the rest evenly. The argument only ended so nicely because the moon had little to no use. There were no trees and you couldn't grow anything.
Even if they used Qi to make an area habitable to grow things, it would only bear the same result as growing it on the ground. Not to mention the fact that they would have to bring their own dirt since the moon rock was unable to grow anything.
The only thing that could be done with the territory on the moon was making a base, but in order for anyone below void traversing to live on it, they would need to make a formation to bring air and have a way to travel from the ground to the moon.
Since people below void traversing couldn't go in space, they would either have to make a very long bridge, which wouldn't be possible due to the rotation of the planet, or personally take people up there.
Of course, that wasn't Zhou Fan's problem. He had only made the moon in order to make the Zhou world feel more complete.
Right now, he was thinking of an idea he suddenly had. Carrying things around had long become inconvenient to Zhou Fan and he wanted to figure out a way to fix that problem.
He had thought about it for a while, but the only thing he felt he could do was create a space pocket to hold his stuff.
But that was easier said than done. Although Zhou Fans control over space had been increasing over time, creating a permanent pocket in space would be a bit much for him.
He may be able to do it, but it would take an uncomfortable amount of his Qi to keep it working constantly. The only way he could think to reduce the load was to make the space pocket inactive when he wasn't using it.
That would mean making an invisible storage that was around him at all times. As for how to keep it around him, he had an idea.
Zhou Fan grabbed at the air, causing the strongest materials in the planet's core to teleport to him. The fact that he could do such a thing proved he would be able to create a space pocket.
Zhou Fan melted all the materials he had taken down and condensed them, eventually forming them into a ring.
The ring was silver in color and completely unnoticeable by anyone below his realm. Zhou Fan then moved on to the hard part.
He carefully carved a hole in space and began to make it deeper and deeper. It was an extremely hard thing that most people couldn't even comprehend. After an hour of careful carving, Zhou Fan made it to a different layer of space. It was one that couldn't be seen normally.
Zhou Fan was glad at his success and carved a fine cube out of the space, before imprinting his Qi onto it and taking ownership of the space.
However, that wasn't enough. If he left it like that, the space would remain at that point forever.
Zhou Fan had to do one more thing before it could even be considered functional. Zhou Fan reached his two fingers in the space carefully and grabbed the cube he carved out.
The space around the cube instantly filled the space it left behind like water would. Zhou Fan carefully held the cube, using an immense amount of Qi so that it didn't disperse back to the world, and placed it on his ring where the stone would usually go.
Still supplying Qi to it, Zhou Fan layed many formations that would uphold the integrity of the space before he finally let go.
He watched the ring, waiting for it to either explode or do nothing. After a minute, Zhou Fan felt that it must have been a success.
The ring hadn't changed appearances at all from when it was first forged, but it now carried an invisible space on it.
The space was so tiny that a flea could barely fit, although the flea would die instantly due to the environment in there. Zhou Fan once again created a formation that this time made the space calm. Although he hadn't made it able to hold living things, he could now put items in there without them freezing or being destroyed instantly.
Zhou Fan then added a formation that made the ring usable. The formation, when Qi was put into it, would expand the space and make it the size of a mountain.
When the formation was deactivated, the space would shrink alongside everything else inside it.
Such a feat could only be achieved due to Zhou Fan power level. Now, the ring was ready to be tested.
