In the Primordial World.
Su Changqing sat cross-legged at the center of the cyan lotus, contemplating the Creation Technique inherent in his being.
The Creation Cyan Lotus, a presence that rivals divine artifacts like the Heaven-Opening Axe and Chaos Pearl.
Yet the original cyan lotus was too powerful for the heavens and earth to contain, so it was divided by the Heavenly Dao into three twelve-grade cyan lotuses.
The creation body gifted by the silent benefactor imbued his form with the potential for creation, embodying boundless life force.
But this was ultimately incomplete, far less formidable than the power of the Heaven-Opening Axe and other divine objects.
Yet now, as the Secret Technique of Creation completes, Su Changqing’s physique undergoes another transformation.
Boom!
After an unknown period, a vast cyan light enveloped Su Changqing, as a gigantic cyan lotus, blocking out the sun, swayed and rose from behind him.
Endless life force spread out, the miraculous power of creation filled his once barren inner world with vibrant hues.
Mountains and rivers seemed to gain life, growing infinitely tall and vast.
The forests and vegetation stretched their branches and leaves, sprawling from the barren ground to the horizon’s end.
If the inner world was a toddler just learning to walk not long ago.
Then now, this child has rapidly grown into a graceful youth.
The world holds life force and the power of creation, meaning it can now foster living beings.
The completion of the creation body entirely made up for the shortcomings of this world, making it a true heaven and earth!
And the rapid transformation of the world significantly enhanced Su Changqing’s physique.
His body grew as he faced the wind, and in the blink of an eye, he stood with his head touching the sky, his feet planted on the ground.
The previously unfathomable Eastern Sea now barely reached his ankles as he stepped into it.
And this was not his limit.
As his head surpassed the clouds, as his body reached the height of the Buzhou Mountain, he gradually approached the world’s limit.
"Ao..."
At this time, Xuanhuang, cultivating in the Eastern Sea, looked at the suddenly appearing giant, his golden eyes full of shock.
His body was already enormous, having grown to two thousand zhang through constant cultivation.
Yet now, his so-called massive figure was insignificant, not even an ant, in front of the giant.
He looked up to the sky, his sight reaching only the giant’s chest.
That indescribable sense of oppression made even Xuanhuang, with the Dragon Emperor’s bloodline, shiver uncontrollably.
It seemed he was not facing a living being, but an infinite heaven and earth.
And it was true.
With the gradual completion of the creation body, Su Changqing’s physique had nearly merged with his own world.
And within his body, the space held the Chaos Pearl, infinitely expanding.
This also meant that the magnitude of his body had no end, until... it would burst this world apart!
"Creation..."
Su Changqing slowly raised his hand, stirring up a storm in the world.
He looked at his palm, for the first time understanding what the power of creation truly was.
The endless divine power within him could casually open a world.
And the immense life force it contained could restore all things, even... give birth to all creation.
"When I find the last cyan lotus, I will truly possess the ability to create a world..."
With this insight rising in his heart, Su Changqing’s form gradually returned to its original state.
The vast Primordial World suddenly felt small within his perception.
Because he knew, if he wished, his body could burst this world apart.
Boom!
As Su Changqing fell into contemplation, a rumbling suddenly echoed throughout the vast land of the Primordial World.
At the foot of Buzhou Mountain, a pair of siblings with human bodies and snake tails stepped forth, looking at the world with joy on their faces.
On the towering mystical mountains, a clear light surged skyward, transforming into three Daoists gazing at the world.
In the west of the land, a thin yellow figure with a sorrowful expression and shoulders draped ears, with eyes filled with compassion, two brothers stepped forth.
The Eastern Sea churned, dragon roars echoed, and from the frigid winds of the Northern Sea, a great fish rose, transforming into a roc soaring in the sky.
Clouds and rays adorned the horizon, Red Eyebrow Daoist emerged with a smile, and below, the spiritual veins of Wanshou Mountain glowed, as an elder wearing a crimson Daoist crown slowly appeared...
In what seemed like an instant, the vitality of the Primordial World reached its peak.
The living beings nurtured in every corner of the world came into being, bringing vibrancy to a previously dull world.
And these beings, though newly born, possessed tremendous power!
The current world was formed from the body of the Wu Zu, known as ’Gu.’
How strong was ’Gu’s body? And as the Wu Zu, renowned for his formidable physique?
Such power meant that even a single hair or a piece of flesh held treasures of boundless energy.
Now, as the world was just beginning to nurture, these first beings had, more or less, received Wu Zu’s blessings.
Like the Three Pristine Ones, the Ancestor Witches, the Western Two Buddhas...
These beings received the most blessings from Wu Zu, making each of them extraordinarily powerful.
Even though this world yet lacked cultivation methods, Wu Zu’s blessings alone made them rival the quasi-great emperor-level powerhouses of the continent!
This, is the foundation of the world.
Also enjoying this bounty are these first innate beings born of the world.
"This world has just opened, yet the number of powerhouses exceeds even that of the Cangyan Continent."
Su Changqing stood high in the heavens, watching the continuously emerging beings, with a sense of awe.
A glimpse into the power of Wu Zu can be seen here.
Even in death, he left behind such formidable strength for future generations.
These beings currently lack a cultivation system, but once they master such a framework, their combat strength will surge dramatically again.
