Heaven stood still and nodded while Zhou Fan continued to talk about what he should do.
Heaven's body was the size of a 5 or six year old child. His head reached Zhou Fan's waist. He had white hair and blue eyes, similar to his soul form.
The rest of his body was mostly the same as normal human children. Despite looking the same, the power hidden beneath his skin was countless times higher than any other human child.
As for his brain, it was countless times more powerful than anyone else's in the entire universe, besides Zhou Fan of course.
"....the life born inside of this galaxy will be essential to your growth and my experiment. Do you understand everything I just told you?" Zhou Fan asked, finishing up his lecture.
"Yes father. I will get right to it." Heaven responded.
"Not yet." Zhou Fan interrupted. "There is still another planet."
Before heaven could react, Zhou Fan grabbed his arm and teleported him above another planet. This planet was much less full of life and seemed to be a wasteland.
Without Zhou Fan needing to say anything, heaven released his divine sense and covered the planet with it.
He was then able to see and understand everything about the world's structure and the life inside it. He even mentally developed a plan. Once Zhou Fan explained what he should do, he would see how close it was to his idea.
"This world seems a lot more difficult on the surface, but it should be fairly simple to fix up. I've temporarily given you some of my ability to evolve and control the evolution of life. SInce you don't have divinity, you'll be using some of mine." Zhou Fan said.
"Here are some microorganisms." Zhou Fan said as he handed heaven a bottle with a nearly clear liquid in it. "You will use this to create more variations of life. As for the state of the world, you will need to use life rain and some water. There is water and ice on many planets in this galaxy. Just grab some from them. You can always repay it back later."
Heaven continued to nod as Zhou Fan spoke. The plan he had developed earlier was somewhat similar to Zhou Fans. Unfortunately, he hadn't known about the microorganisms or divinity before he made his plan.
"Now. Implement these ideas and add a twist of your own. I'll be watching until I can trust that you understand your duties." Zhou Fan said before seemingly fading into the darkness.
Although heaven could not sense or see Zhou Fan, he still let out a yes sir and got to work. The first thing he did was cast life rain on the two planets. Since he was strong enough to easily travel the galaxy, the time it took to move around was negligible.
After a day of waiting, he brought some ice from an ice giant not too far away and put it on the wasteland planet.
After some thinking, he made three giant lakes that could be described as oceans. They were perfectly circular and took up half of the surface area of the planet.
He then left the second planet alone for a while. It needed some time before he could move on to the next part of his plan.
At the first planet, heaven manipulated the genetics of many of the species. Unfortunately, he was nowhere near the level of Zhou Fan. He was unable to easily create any sort of humanoid species.
----------------------------------
A hundred thousand years later, Zhou Fan lazily watched heaven move around while in the void. He had to admit that he was surprised by his ability. It seemed he had a natural talent for such things.
Although a long time had passed to some, both Zhou Fan and heaven were very powerful beings. The time seemed to pass in an instant to both of them.
All of a sudden, heaven shouted out in victory and raised both of his arms. Zhou Fan paid a little more attention to his progress on the first world and couldn't help but internally clap.
After so long, heaven had managed to create a humanoid race. They were very intelligent and their talent was on par with the celestials. Although Zhou Fan was much weaker than heaven when he had created the celestials, it was still an achievement that he could match the lesser dao creation realm Zhou Fan, even if he was using the god realm Zhou Fans powers to achieve it.
---------------------------------
It didn't take too long before heaven came up with a name for his newly created race.
"I shall call you the heavenborn race." He said triumphantly.
He then decided to do something Zhou Fan had never done with the early celestials. Show himself.
Although he had thought of descending in his body, he felt that it wouldn't give as much of an impact. He truly was Zhou Fan's child.
---------------------------------------
On the first planet, an elegant looking middle aged man was staring at his hands. He was still in the very beginning stage of life, despite being fully grown.
Naturally, he couldn't have been born as a baby due to the fact that he was the first heavenborn.
He was just beginning to have thoughts such as who am I, and what am I, but a sudden energy gathered far above his head. Despite being a mortal, although his body was as strong as a golden core cultivator due to the power of the heavenborn race, he was able to sense the energy above him.
It wasn't that he was very special, but that the energy fluctuation was just so strong.
As he looked up, he saw an unforgettable scene. A giant blue eye floated in the sky. It seemed to cover up the sun and the clouds. It peered down in the manor of a god.
"My child." It said in a deep and dignified voice. "You are a heavenborn, created by heaven. You are the first. Your duty is to serve heaven and the beings under heaven. Do you accept."
Naturally, there was no room for negotiation.
Although the man had no idea what was happening, he still fell to his knees and gratefully accepted heaven's call.
"Yes my lord. I shall serve you well!" He said instinctually, despite not knowing any language.
"Then I shall grant you power and the ability to obtain power. Gain strength and do not fail me." The giant eye said before slowly disappearing.
The man sat confused until a book appeared in front of him. He wasn't sure what to do with it, but he reached out regardless in an attempt to grab the book. Just before he could, he heard a crack in the skies above him.
He hurriedly shot his head up and saw dark clouds gathering above. They seemed to fill the entire sky. Although ignorant, he felt immense fear at the storm forming above him.
He was just about to grab the book and run, but a lightning bolt hit him in the center of the forehead before he even had the time to react.
In an instant, he fell to the ground, seemingly lifeless. All of a sudden, a small lightning bolt began to form on the center of his forehead where the lightning bolt hit.
It formed a picture of a blue lightning bolt. As soon as the picture formed, he opened his eyes. Now, a hint of knowledge could be seen behind them.
The lightning bolt had transmitted many pieces of information to him. Among them was the English language, basic knowledge such as reading and writing, and most importantly, how to open a book, among other things.
Not only had information been transmitted to him, but a bit of cultivation had, courtesy of Zhou Fan. Before the lightning bolt struck, heaven had requested that he give the man some cultivation as the bolt hit him.
Zhou Fan agreed and did just that. Although heaven was somewhat disappointed that he didn't have the same ability to give something cultivation, he ignored it soon enough.
The man had been given the cultivation of a tenth level foundation establishment cultivator. Zhou Fan didn't want to give him too much of an advantage.
As the man opened the book and began to read, he found knowledge of cultivation, as well as knowledge of many arts such as forging and pill making.
He religiously read the book for three days straight before he finally finished it, memorizing it all.
"Oh heaven!" He said, shouting at the sky. "Bear witness to the glory I bring to you!"
After the echo of his shout died down, the man got up and began to adventure around the world in search of a suitable place to create the first establishment of the heavenborn.
-----------------------------------------------
"You sure know how to make someone worship you." Zhou Fan said as he appeared next to heaven. They stood above the planet, hidden by the atmosphere.
"I'll take the compliment." Heaven said.
"Father? Do you think I'm old enough to upgrade my body?" Heaven asked all of a sudden.
"Not even close." Zhou Fan responded.
Heaven's face contorted a little at his response, but he simply sighed and accepted it. He wasn't feeling that much different from when he was born anyways.
"What's the next part of your plan?" Zhou Fan asked.
"Well I've got to give the heavenborn the ability to reproduce, but I don't think I'll be able to create another one just as good as him" Heaven responded.
"Then don't." Zhou Fan interrupted. "Take his cells and create a female clone before altering the genes a little bit. After that, there will be plenty of heavenborns on the planet."
Heaven nodded hearing Zhou Fan's words. It would have taken him a bit longer to think of that since he still lacked experience.
"By the way. What do you plan on calling the world? You can't just call it first world since that is both a bad name and incorrect." Zhou Fan asked.
"I plan on calling it heaven world." Heaven responded.
"About as original as me. Makes sense." Zhou Fan said as he laughed. He then once again faded into the layers of space.
Getting used to his sudden appearances and disappearances, Heaven nodded and got to work.
-----------------------------------
Around three thousand years later, heaven had finished meticulously creating the female clone for the sole heavenborn on the heaven world.
Although it really couldn't be called a clone anymore since nearly every bit of genetics had changed, it was still originally the man's genes that birthed the woman.
For the first time in a while, heaven sent the giant eye down to the world and peered upon it.
The man, who had been waiting for such a moment, immediately came out of the building he was living in.
"Heaven!" He said excitedly.
"Hello child." Heaven said in a deep voice. "I am here to give you a gift and see how you are doing."
"I am great, lord heaven." The man responded. "In the time I have spent down here, I have even made a name for myself."
"And what is that?" Heaven asked.
"My name is Tian Ren." The man responded with a smile on his face.
"Interesting." Heaven said.
"I have created a great city for you, heaven. I have also created a statue." Tian Ren shouted.
"I can see." Heaven said as he looked at the city that was built for him.
For the first time since he showed himself again, he was truly surprised. The city was ten miles long and wide. Ignoring the 40 miles left to the land and the perimeter surrounded by a wall, there was an entire sixty miles of city built by one man.
More surprisingly, the city was stunningly beautiful. Marble and gold lined the buildings in the center, including the castle that Tian Ren was living at. In the middle section, the houses were made of marble and gold still, but there was less of it.
As for the outside houses, they were made from high quality wood and ores. Regardless of any perspective or point of view, the entire city was beautiful.
The only thing made out of pure stone was the walls. As for the gates, they too were made of marble, gold, and other metals.
Directly in front of the castle, a giant eye made out of gold was held up by three long golden beams.
