Chapter 2356: Creation
【Ding~Congratulations on passing the 9500th challenge of the Heavenly Tower!】
【Since you completed this stage's challenge with fewer than 3 attempts, you earned the reward of unlocking the Super Mysterious Store!】
The system emitted a prompt tone.
Xiao Feng's Li Ti was reshaped, his whole body lay in the void, utterly exhausted.
His real-world body could barely muster any strength.
But he recovered quickly.
Taking a breath, his state recovered by 10%, and he became vigorous again.
"I'm so tired."
"I don't know what the final stage's test is."
With a bit of curiosity, Xiao Feng got up from the ground.
After buying everything from the Super Mysterious Store, he continued the challenge and reached the final level.
Whoosh~
The scene before him shifted, and Xiao Feng appeared in an empty, lifeless Barren world.
This world was covered in yellow sand, with no sun, no stars, everything filled with deathly silence.
The system's prompt tone echoed in his ears.
【Heavenly Tower 9501st layer challenge: Create life. For each lifeform created, you can pass one layer. Upon clearing all 9999 layers, the system will evaluate and reward you based on the diversity of species you created, with the highest reward being the Chaos Sacred Artifact.】
The test of the final level finally arrived.
"Create life?"
Xiao Feng couldn't help but smile.
This was exactly the method he had recently researched, and it came just in time!
With a thought, Myriad Origin Qi gathered, condensing and shaping a tall weed on the yellow earth.
【Ding~Creation successful! You have passed the 9501st layer challenge, please continue!】
The system's voice came from his ears.
Xiao Feng continued to circulate Myriad Origin Qi.
Plants come in many varieties; similarly as grass, he can continue
continue creating 499 different kinds to muddle through the checkpoint.
However, to meet the diversity requirement, he doesn't intend to do that.
499 kinds: 200 kinds of plants, 200 kinds of animals, plus 99 kinds of microorganisms.
The Boundless Continent has over ten million species of living beings; he knows almost all of them, so a mere 499 kinds pose no difficulty for him.
Soon, the land sprouted all kinds of flowers, grasses, trees, and birds, insects, and beasts.
However……
When Xiao Feng had created the 287th lifeform, the earliest-born grass suddenly died.
System prompt: 【A lifeform you created has died, reducing the cleared layer by one.】
Xiao Feng was dumbfounded.
It turns out you cannot let the created lifeforms die, or you won't pass.
However……
This isn't difficult either!
With a thought, he separated out several avatars.
The first avatar rose into the air, appearing above the high heavens; a Golden Crow phantom emerged, transforming into a blazing sun, bringing light and warmth to the earth.
With a wave, the second avatar laid down common gases such as oxygen and nitrogen, forming the atmosphere.
Then without pause, he turned a stretch of land into an ocean, with surging waves.
Xiao Feng's game character was already close to level 3000; doing this caused him negligible mana drain.
With a living environment, shaping lifeforms became even easier.
In the sea there could be algae plants, various microorganisms, and larger fish and shrimp animals, even mammals.
On land there are many sun-loving plants and animals that enjoy basking in the sun.
【Ding~Creation successful! You have passed the 9798th layer challenge, please continue!】
【Ding~Creation successful! You have passed the 9799th layer challenge, please continue!】
【Ding
~Creation……】
System prompt tones came one after another, each interval not exceeding ten minutes, sometimes only a few seconds.
Not long after, as a prompt tone sounded, everything around changed.
【Ding~Creation successful! You have passed the 9999th layer challenge!】
【You have completed all challenges of the Heavenly Tower! Congratulations, you will become an official disciple of the Creator God!】
【Ding~You obtained the Chaos Sacred Artifact—Creation!】
The Barren world is now teeming with life.
Although 499 lifeforms aren't many, at least the area in sight is very harmonious and natural.
However, this scene didn't last long, gradually fading into an illusory mist.
Xiao Feng appeared in a room.
The room wasn't large, resembling the top floor of a certain tower.
He had been here before, and it was also here that he first saw the Creator God.
However, this time the room was completely empty; the Creator God whom he had just met not long ago did not appear again to see him.
A clump of white substance appeared in Xiao Feng's hand, emitting a unique aura of dignity, somewhat similar to the Chaos Sacred Artifact 【Source of Reincarnation】 he had once merged with, differing only in color.
This is the Chaos Sacred Artifact 【Source of Creation】.
The four Chaos Sacred Artifacts—Fate, Reincarnation, Creation, and Destruction—are respectively represented by the colors red, blue, white, and black.
Xiao Feng already possessed two of them in his hand.
"Creator God's formal disciple..."
Xiao Feng smiled, sat down quietly, and waited for his father-in-law to come receive his obeisance, thus sealing the master-disciple bond.
However…
He waited a long while, but the Creator God still did not appear.
"Creator God… where are you?"
Xiao Feng couldn't help but ask.
No one responded, the
Heavenly Tower seemed to have lost the system's surveillance, and there was nothing.
After a while, a sudden enlightenment arose from Xiao Feng's heart.
"Actually… I've long been the Creator God's formal disciple, haven't I?"
From the day he obtained the Book of Origins, he has continually followed the Creator God's guidance, embarking on the path of creation.
Now that the Source of Creation is in his hand, he can almost freely create living beings and items in the myriad worlds, nearly obtaining GM privileges.
The formalities of taking a master are no longer important.
The Creator God didn't come to see him, probably because they had just met not long ago and temporarily had nothing to say to him.
Xiao Feng then stayed a while longer on the top floor of the Heavenly Tower.
With no one paying him any heed, he sighed, "The journey through the Heavenly Tower is completely over."
His rank remained first, with a perfect score of 9999 levels, and there was no further progress possible.
In this game universe, no living being is a match for him anymore—not even the once-mighty Kunpeng, which now likely couldn't withstand a single strike from him.
Because creation and destruction are actually opposites; since he can create, he can also destroy all things.
Reincarnation and fate are also opposites, both being the intertwining of time and Qi Luck, the various changes produced when thought and matter collide with all else in this world.
Possessing two Chaos Sacred Artifacts, he basically grasps all the power that the myriad worlds can wield.
As long as he puts his mind to it, there is nothing he cannot do.
Only… completing the Way of Heaven in this regard cannot be achieved merely by contemplating the existing laws.
Xiao Feng withdrew from the Heavenly Tower's challenge space.
No one cheered for him, no one gathered to watch him, everything was
desolate and quiet.
"Creation…"
Xiao Feng looked at the white Chaos Sacred Artifact source in his hand and sneered, "If I were to create a miniature myriad-worlds game within the myriad worlds, would I succeed?"
There is an opportunity to try.
Not only can he create games, he can also create players.
NPCs of the myriad worlds, upon entering the miniature myriad worlds, can play the game.
Or, he could independently create a small universe; within that small universe there would be living beings and a virtual world. The virtual world runs the miniature myriad-worlds game, while the real world's populace proliferates…
This is part of the cosmic Dao.
In the Boundless Continent, he has already comprehended this, but he has not yet personally attempted to create it himself.
"I'll try it slowly when I have time," Xiao Feng muttered to himself.
Communicating with his Divine Sense and the Source of Creation, he understood many things and also realized he had gained many additional privileges.
Even…
He could even pierce the cosmic barriers, directly crossing from the Myriad Worlds into the Eternal Life world to give his two recently arrogant daughters a beating.
Having reached the realm of creation, the barriers of the virtual universe have lost their meaning for him; aside from the controller's plane being protected and indestructible, he has permission to touch everything else.
