Chapter 89 Nuwa's Indulgence: The Eighty-Nine Days of Creating Games
Although they were supposed to make a piece of clothing together, in reality, it was mostly Yuan Yi who unilaterally taught Tong Tian some basic common sense.
"Too many colors in a garment can make it look messy..."
"We can put fewer of these hanging decorations here."
"Too many different materials will result in a poor texture when put together. If you like a plush texture, we can choose one type of fur as the main material and then use bird feathers for decoration."
Yuan Yi stood beside Tong Tian, his movements unhurried and deliberate as he disassembled the various accessories from Tong Tian's clothes, and then led Tong Tian to reassemble them one by one.
The original long, fluffy feathers were preserved, but attached to the fabric to create a wide-sleeved white robe. The nine tails and a pair of ears, which were originally connected, were separated by Yuan Yi to make headdresses and back ornaments, which could be freely combined. As for the colorful wings, they were woven into an exquisite belt under Yuan Yi's design, tied around the waist, with a small jade sword hanging from it, delicate and lovely.
Despite using the same materials and style, Yuan Yi's modifications transformed the original mishmash into a beautiful garment that is both rustic and exquisite, cute yet imbued with animal characteristics.
Tongtian's eyes lit up, and he tried to reach out and touch it. It was exactly the same soft and comfortable feel he had imagined.
Yuan Yi also incorporated it into the array rating system, but this Nine-Tailed Snow Robe only received a Class 1 rating.
Tongtian stopped midway through his sentence, because he remembered that this formation was created by Yuan Yi in front of him. Even Tongtian felt it was inappropriate to say that the game was bad in front of the producer.
"It's not easy to understand either." Tongtian forced a change of topic, trying hard to steer the conversation back on track, but he still met Yuanyi's ambiguous smile.
Yuan Yi: "Since Fellow Daoist Tongtian has already witnessed my demonstration, please try it yourself. With your abilities, a mere Heavenly Card should be no problem for you."
"Oh no!" Tongtian's heart skipped a beat. He quickly grabbed Yuanyi's hand: "Didn't we agree to make one together? You were just making changes for me, we haven't even started working together yet."
Seeing that Tongtian was speaking urgently and looking sincere, Yuanyi stopped teasing him and instead reset Tongtian's game interface to the initial mode.
“In the game, making clothes only requires divine thought. As long as you think about the effect you want to achieve, you can make it. What were you thinking when you were making the last piece of clothing? Why were your thoughts so complicated?” Yuan Yi began to guide Tongtian from the beginning.
He half-revealed, "Of course, of course I was thinking about the cubs I used to touch. The feel of them was really nice, just like this outfit."
Having witnessed Tongtian's love for all things furry while traveling with him, Yuan Yi had no doubts. She rubbed her temples and said, "Even if you're thinking about the cubs, you can't touch the ears of a nine-tailed fox at the same time, and you can't just think about furry things without thinking about clothes."
"I was just thinking about how to make you a fluffy coat." Tongtian felt wronged, but he was too embarrassed to say it. He just kept touching the fluffy fabric of the coat, feeling the soft touch on his fingertips.
It feels so soft; Yuan Yi must feel very comfortable wearing it. He'll make one to try next time.
Tongtian remained silent for a long time today, while Yuanyi reflected on whether her tone had been too harsh. She tried her best to soften her tone: "The first thing about clothes is, of course, to cover the body. When you imagine clothes, you must first think about their style. Then add the elements you like."
"But there shouldn't be too many elements; at most, they should only be embellishments and not overshadow the essence of the garment. In this way, a garment that can be added to the gacha pool can be created."
As Yuan Yi spoke, Tong Tian acted. Because of the reason Yuan Yi had been talking about, Tong Tian only thought of a white robe this time, following Yuan Yi's words. This was the robe he wore most often, so he was very familiar with it and came up with it in no time.
However, such a basic robe can only receive a Xuan-level rating.
Tongtian thought for a moment, then added some gold and silver trim to the robe, and a sword sheath to its back. As he added and subtracted, Yuanyi reminded him to "simplify" and "avoid excessive decorations." By the time the white robe, adorned with two tail feathers and a small leaf, and with arrays carved along its edges, re-entered the card trend, it had already reached the Earth-level rating.
Tongtian was completely at a loss for how to improve it. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that his robe was indeed perfect. Even if it were placed in front of him in reality, he couldn't find any fault with it. Whether in terms of aesthetics or practicality, it was uniquely good. In any case, compared to Yuanshi's golden peacock robe, he would definitely choose this white robe in front of him.
But why was it only rated as Earth-level, while Yuan Shi's item was rated as Heaven-level? Tong Tian stood with his arms crossed, this time looking back at Yuan Yi with righteous indignation, determined to demand an explanation from Yuan Yi.
"Why shouldn't mine be a top-grade item?" He put so much effort into making it, and it's both beautiful and practical. It could even withstand three blows from Luo Hou. Such an excellent work is beneath its top-grade status.
Yuan Yi sighed: "Of course, it's because this garment lacks vitality."
"Hmm?" Tongtian looked puzzled. How could a purely imaginary outfit come to life outside the game?
Yuan Yi explained: "This vitality is not the same as that vitality. Although the creation of clothes in the game is imagined through divine thought, the strength of the divine thought and the ideas you contain will naturally be engraved on the robes during the creation process. When you build it, your own imprint will be left."
"If it is to be rated as a Heavenly Rank, the clothes cannot just be clothes, but must be like the creation of a living being, embodying expectations and thoughts. Fellow Daoist Yuanshi follows the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, so his robe corresponds to all things in heaven and earth; Senior Brother Laozi advocates non-action, so his simple clothes are just like his."
"Your clothes are beautiful, but they only reflect a competitive spirit. They lack any creativity or originality, so you will naturally fall behind."
Yuan Yi commented on each point, and finally reminded him: "Since it came from your hands, it is not an unchanging inanimate object. You must give it your own unique spirit and let it come alive in this world."
Tongtian gazed thoughtfully at the robes before him, while Nuwa paused briefly. Looking at the pale green dress, she had a sudden thought, and the vines that had been merely decorative began to grow slowly.
A seed sprouted from the ground, climbing onto the decorations of the clothes in the game, completing the last piece of the puzzle. Seeing the clothes in her hands being rated as Heaven-level and automatically stored in the warehouse, Nuwa gently touched the vines that remained in place, feeling as if she had touched a small edge of the Great Dao.
Just a little bit more, just a little bit more, that so-called life was about to complete the final piece of its puzzle. Nuwa felt a powerful urge.
She even wanted to ask Yuan Yi what exactly this so-called creation was.
But when she saw the faceless man, she suddenly calmed down. She knew that she had to walk her own path. Now, she was just one last chance to understand her true self. Why bother trying to find something better?
It was soon. Nuwa divined the future, which was already unclear, but she never doubted the outcome.
She clicked on the Faceless Man and then manipulated the vines to entwine around him; this was indeed a good game.
Under Yuan Yi's guidance, Tongtian finally understood the uniqueness of the so-called Heavenly level. The clothes reflected the person; since he had created the garments, they naturally had to withstand the fierce sword energy. The original array patterns had been replaced with pale lotus flowers, and the shrunken Qingping Sword was engraved at his waist. This white-robed swordsman's attire immediately amazed Yuan Yi.
Tongtian crossed his arms and hummed proudly, "I knew it! I could definitely do a better job than Yuanshi with a mere Heavenly Grade."
Yuan Yi smiled, but added the White-Clad Sword Immortal's outfit to the encyclopedia.
…………
Ten days later, at Wuzhuang Temple.
The place where the Great Immortals used to gather has now become a new classroom for the disciples of Wuzhuang Temple.
Kong Xuan wore a set of layered dark blue robes, which, combined with his serious expression during class, made him appear exceptionally composed, causing the group of little ones below to shush and not dare to move.
Da Peng, who was wearing the same clothes, looked listless and tired.
Although their temperaments were completely different, the little ones, who had witnessed how these two fellow disciples studied and taught, dared not be disrespectful in the slightest. They obediently recited the "Basic Cultivation" assignment given earlier.
Only the newly arrived Lingzhuzi, acting on instinct and charging recklessly, wearing the little flower-patterned coat that Nuwa had woven for her, burst from the back row to the front. She then smashed her head down hard on Ao Bing, who was sitting at the podium.
Judging from his aggressive demeanor, he must still be holding a grudge against Ao Bing for blocking his attack when he first left the Treasure Sharing Cliff.
Ao Bing, who was reciting his lessons with his eyes closed, couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the spirit pearl again, getting a big bump on his head. This incident also caught the attention of the little dumplings who were still diligently studying.
Seeing their childhood friend being bullied by an outside bead, the dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns, who were originally reciting their lessons with resentment, all slammed their fists on the table and rushed towards the bead from all directions.
The little phoenixes circled the bead from the sky, the unicorns chased and intercepted it on the ground, while the little dragon focused on spraying water to cool down the bead.
Meanwhile, Kong Xuan and Da Peng on the stage silently observed the battle unfolding below. The lesson was almost over, and it was time to see what the students had learned.
Although the Spirit Pearl was a rare magical treasure under Nuwa's command, this was, after all, Wuzhuang Temple. As an outsider, it was no match for thousands of hands, and was quickly chased away by the Wuzhuang Temple's little dumplings who were working together and using tactics.
A thin snake tail swayed among the branches of the ginseng fruit tree. Nuwa, who had been watching Lingzhuzi attend class, also put down her copy of "Miracle Primordial World Beta" for once. With a smile, she mischievously gave the fiery Lingzhuzi a new, multicolored skin.
The newly designed clothes were so dazzling that the little Qilin and Phoenixes chasing Lingzhuzi were quickly blinded. Lingzhuzi, who had been running away, also realized the advantage of the clothes and immediately switched from defense to offense, chasing Ao Bing and the others who had been attacking him the most fiercely, causing them to crash and scramble around in a chaotic mess.
Nuwa, perched on a tree, pursed her lips, secretly watching her own spirit pearl bully the little dumplings of Wuzhuang Temple. She didn't forget to record a video using a game array, attaching it to the details of her newly created radiant dress.
The clothes designed by Nuwa were praised by Lingzhuzi after she wore them!
Seeing that the spirit bead had become even more troublesome due to its sudden appearance, the little balls below exchanged glances, closed their eyes, and, relying on the sounds they heard and the fluctuations of spiritual energy, once again surrounded the spirit bead.
However, since most of the little ones were doing this for the first time, while attacking the spirit orb, they inevitably bumped into each other and fell to the ground together. The once solemn classroom became a mess again.
Nuwa thought for a moment, then found a trumpet-shaped accessory in her warehouse, and was about to equip the spirit pearl with it.
But at this moment, Kong Xuan had already silently arrived under the tree, looked up at Nuwa, and softly called out, "Uncle Nuwa."
Faced with Kong Xuan's stern gaze, Nuwa, who had been indulging her child's disruptive behavior during class, gave an embarrassed smile and quickly stuffed the loudspeaker parts back into the warehouse.
"Dijun invited my siblings and me to attend the joint marriage ceremony, so I went ahead of myself."
