1198 Playing God

Red Mist Forbidden Land:

Heavenly Book Paragon opened his eyes, sensing another Nexus of Time. He opened his book, and as expected, countless new pages now contained writing. He read patiently before a smile formed on the corner of his mouth.

"A broken Half-Step Transcendence Artifact? Finally, a decent fortunate opportunity," he muttered. He started to think that Grand Dao was doing poorly at sending him information and that Grand Dao's son would be the only person to give him benefits.

Heavenly Book Paragon pondered. 'The exact place is only briefly described, making the location unclear. But with the information at hand and knowing it's from the Devil Primogenitor, I should be able to deduce the exact location.'

His eyes turned completely white as he activated his Heaven Grand Dao Source. His gaze scanned through the secrets and truths of the universe as if he were looking at a record with knowledge from the entire Chaos Universe.

"Found it," Heavenly Book murmured before condensing a clone and sending it to the trial's location in Primordial Chaos. 'This is a good start," he thought calmly. 'However, his growth rate is way faster than I anticipated.'

Heavenly Book Paragon wished he could deal with a not-fully realized Wang Wei or Grand Dao Son. Although he feared no one in confrontation, he did not like extra work. 'Maybe it's time I consider eliminating these two.'

His eyes squinted, hiding an intense ferocity. It might be impossible to kill these two, but getting them out of the way temporarily so he can get to Wang Wei may not be impossible. 'I'll need to play my cards right if I want an opportunity.' Heavenly Book closed his book while his mind was still scheming and planning.

Myriad Emperor World, Void Battlefield:

'Shit,' Wang Wei thought. 'There is a high chance that the bastard, Heavenly Book, knows about my future and took away my fortunate encounters -- including the artifact.' He was immediately in a bad mood after thinking about this.

'I need to hurry.' Wang Wei realized his focus should not be entirely on these parasites or the two suns but also Heavenly Book. The latter's motives are unknown to him, and the lack of information on the latter does not sit well with him.

'If I cannot rely on that artifact, I need to have a plan B,' he grunted. He stood there silent for a few hours before regaining his bearing. 'Let's focus on the present for now.'

Wang Wei summoned a blue fog before pausing. 'Should I go with the classic [Let there be light]?... Forget it. Let's just imitate Pangu.' He spread the blue fog throughout the battlefield before manifesting an ax. He swung downward, not ashamed of his actions of imitating the opening of Heaven and Earth.

After the first strike, the blue fog created a vast, desolate space that seemed to embody darkness. Wang Wei swung his ax a second time, and the sky and earth appeared. However, the clouds were not blue but gray, and the earth was pitch black with red lines rushing through as if they were fire veins.

"The Chaos Era," Wang Wei muttered as he looked at this new world he was creating, finding the process slightly fascinating despite the fact it was not the first time. 'Should I create a group of life that can survive in this terrible world? Well, why not.' He controlled the Turbid Qi and disordered Chaos Qi in this realm to create these enormous creatures.

Wang Wei controlled his Grandmist Wheel to speed up time and observe how this world developed. As expected, these abominations that embody chaos fought constantly with each other to the point of extinction.

"Alright. Let's choose a leader with great intelligence to lead them." He chose the most pleasant-looking one - a volcano in humanoid form. "From now on, you'll be known as Yuan, and your destiny is to unite and lead your people."

A hint of clarity appeared in Yuan's eyes before its more than million-kilometer-tall body slowly knelt before Wang Wei. Then, Yuan flew into the distance and started an all-out war. With its newfound power, Yuan conquered all the remaining members of his clan. He suppressed their chaotic nature, awakened their spiritual intelligence, and eventually created the Chaos God Dynasty.

"Not bad," Wang Wei nodded. "However, your era has ended." Under his control, the Chaos Energy in the world rapidly decreased, and the Turbid Qi fused with the Earth, revealing the Clear Qi of Heaven and Earth that fuse with the sky. The so-called Chaos God felt their strength rapidly declining, and it seemed they could do nothing.

Luckily, their Emperor received a revelation from the Creator, telling them to fuse with the Earth and the Sky to save themselves. The majority did so, and thus, these creatures turned into mountains, forests, rivers, the sea, volcanoes, the moon, the sun, and countless stars.

"Interesting," Wang Wei commented. "I could have used my Grandmist to create these things, but this method saves me a lot of time.' Such a slight difference might seem insignificant, but it revealed the essence of utilizing the Grandmist Wheel to someone like him.

'So, what should this new era be? Start with Innate Life before transitioning to Acquired. Directly skip to Acquire? Or only create Innate Life? Maybe go in a completely different direction.'

Wang Wei was in thought. He could do all these since this world can be molded as he pleases. If he wished, he could just start over. However, he needed a purpose for creating this world.

'My purpose is to increase my cultivation speed and create lifeforms that survive the Creation Tribulation. In that case...' Wang Wei pointed at the sky to manifest a chain composed of runes - which was a manifestation of his Grand Dao Source.

He used it as the foundation of the laws of this world to create his version of the Grand Dao Source. Wang Wei had absolute control over this world, meaning he could have made the Grand Dao Source as he wished. However, he replicated the one in the real world to ensure these people could survive the Creation Tribulation and help him cultivate. The only problem with this method is that his cultivation is only 70%, and this world only has Fate.

"Next, I'll use the Fate of Myriad Dao to replicate the Grand Dao Source of all 3800 Daos." With his words, countless new chains formed a grand river that ran through this new world's very fabric of existence. Of course, most of these Daos were on par with 5% Grand Dao Source, and Wang Wei's sub-Daos were at best 25%, but that was more than enough.

"The people can complete these Daos," Wang Wei muttered. He understood now how it was possible for someone to cultivate Chaos Dao. Using the Grandmist Wheel was instrumental; otherwise, it would have taken way too long to develop all 3800 Grand Dao Sources.

"The next step is the creatures." Wang Wei pondered briefly before dividing the world into five continents. The first continent was the Fate Continent, and all life forms living there would cultivate Fate Dao and all the other components of his Fate Dominating Dao. This continent is the center, the largest, and the one with the most luck, destiny, and resources.

The second continent will cultivate his Soul sub-Dao along with his professional Dao. This continent also had ample resources. The third continent would cultivate his other sub-Daos, like Destruction, Five Elements, and Lightning. The fourth continent cultivated all other Daos, and the fifth continent was all body refiners.

Wang Wei moved his arm to mold his first life form. He did not choose an Innate or Acquire and fuse them. His creations will have a lifespan of 10,000 years, but they will all be born weak and must be cultivated. As he finished his creation, Wang Wei nodded in satisfaction.

"I have created you in my image, meaning you have unparalleled talent," Wang Wei stated.

"Lord Creator," the man, wearing a coarse brown bag as clothes, immediately knelt.

"Your surname will be Wang - the same as mind - and your first name will be Chuangsheng, meaning [First Creation]. I have high hopes for you, so do not disappoint me."

"Never, my Lord."

Wang Wei nodded before creating more creatures - a total of 1.269 million, to be exact. He ensured the diversity of races and species. Finally, he left a clone to teach them about basic survival guides before preaching to them about cultivation. The main body traveled to the other continents to spread life, and he ended his creation session by building systems like Samsara, luck, and even fate.

"Now, let's just watch."

He fast-forwards time. The process was interesting, to say the least. Everything was moving rapidly-the continents became populated, people were born and reincarnated, the barrier between continents dissipated, and war and destruction spread, followed by a period of peace before the cycle repeated. However, Wang Weiw was not affected in the slightest. It was like he had a remote control and was moving things along to a designated part of whatever he was watching.

'After more than a million Yuan Epoch, Wang Chuangsheng is finally prepared to pass the Creation Tribulation and become my first Empyrean Tier subordinate,' Wang Wei thought with a smile.
