Overjoyed, everyone embarked on their own path to break through to the seventh rank. Mysterious auras rose throughout the Primordial Star. However, Ye Chen had no time to pay attention to them, and he didn't even try to sense the changes after the territory's advancement. Instead, he was engrossed in his enlightenment about Nuwa creating humans.
Since he didn't know how long the advancement of his territory would take, he naturally couldn't just wait idly. Therefore, after confirming that his territory was safe, he retrieved his insights from when Nuwa created humans, wanting to see how she created life. This question had troubled countless high-ranking lords, and there were even rumors that creating life was the only way for a lord to reach the ninth-tier God level.
There are no ninth-tier lords in the Blue Star plane. All the eighth-tier lords strive in this direction, but no one has succeeded so far. Only in other planes have some powerful lords comprehended the true meaning of life and created races unique to their own territories. And all of these people eventually reached the ninth tier.
Ye Chen can be said to have once again taken the lead over everyone, even over all the lords of Blue Star, becoming the number one person on the Blue Star plane.
Therefore, he was also very curious about Nuwa's insights and wanted to see how she created a race.
After digesting Ye Chen's lecture, Zi Xuan returned to the primordial land and began to ponder her conjectures. She tried to shape the clay, bind it with water, and even used wood to fix it and bake it with fire... but in the end, she failed every time.
This method can create puppets, but it is almost impossible to create a real life.
It wasn't until Ye Chen finished recounting the ancient legends that Zi Xuan finally understood where the real problem lay: the memory she retained was the part about Nuwa creating humans.
Since the goal is to create life, ordinary soil is definitely not suitable, not even earth elemental spirits. The five elements are divided into yin and yang, and even the same attribute can have several different forms, such as the most common yin lightning and yang lightning, bright fire and will-o'-the-wisp...
To create entirely new life, she had to understand the different forms of elements. To this end, she even went so far as to seek out Xu Changqing to learn about the Five Elements, the Eight Trigrams, and other symbolic meanings, and to understand the differences in the essential content of the elements.
The two studied together, which not only greatly improved their strength, but also deepened their understanding of the elements.
When Zixuan finally decided to start having children, the two of them already had an extremely terrifying understanding of the elements. Xu Changqing was even able to separate more than eight different attributes or forms from a single element and fill them into his own Bagua.
This time, Zixuan didn't rush to mold clay into a human. Instead, she chose to refine the materials first. According to the legends of the prehistoric world, the material used to create humans was the Nine Heavens Breath Soil, so she decided to find a way to refine the Nine Heavens Breath Soil first.
To this end, she even summoned tens of millions of earth elemental spirits to help her, and only then did she manage to condense a trace of it. She even went so far as to seek help from Zhulong on Zhangwei Mountain.
It is precisely because the Nine Heavens Breath Soil is difficult to refine that she is unable to create more humans at once. Furthermore, due to the limitations of certain materials, it is difficult to refine new Nine Heavens Breath Soil. It is a resource that diminishes as soon as it is used.
She then used the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth to condense the five most important internal organs of the human body, and used various different elements to condense other parts. In the end, she was stuck on a new problem: how to use the wood element to infuse them with vitality and soul.
A lifeless, soulless being is not recognized as a new life form by the rules of the territory, and this applies even to the lord himself. To gain the recognition of a life by the rules of the territory, it must be endowed with life and a soul.
So Zixuan thought of the gourd vine from the ancient legends, but this kind of innate chaotic gourd vine did not exist on the ancient planet, and she could not create it out of thin air. She could only fuse all the known elemental forces, knead and fuse them, and inject them into a branch of the Tree of Life, so as to enlighten and awaken the human race.
This also resulted in the human race created by Zixuan being different from the real prehistoric human race. Although she also created life, they were far inferior in terms of potential, lifespan, and growth potential, and there were even some mud clumps falling off.
Fortunately, Ye Chen eventually integrated the Primordial Points into the rewards for the human race's merits, which made up for the human race's shortcomings and made them the true Primordial Human Race. Otherwise, given the potential of this group of humans, let alone conquering the starry sky, even living on the Primordial Star would probably not be an easy task, and they would ultimately just become history on the Primordial Star.
Having learned about the entire process of Nuwa creating humans, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh. He was glad he was generous enough to use the Primordial Points as a reward; otherwise, even if these humans were created, they would probably be useless. Indeed, the scarcity of resources was the biggest obstacle to the development of the territory.
If the Primordial Star already possessed the Nine Heavens Breath Soil and the Primordial Chaos Gourd Vine, wouldn't Nuwa have been able to create the human race directly without going through so much trouble? Wouldn't it have been much easier for the Primordial Star to advance to the seventh rank?
Gradually withdrawing from his enlightenment about Nuwa creating humans, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief. This method could only be used once; it was impossible to use it to create life and people on a large scale.
The difficulty in condensing the Nine Heavens Breath Soil and the preciousness of the Primordial Chaos Gourd Vine make it impossible to create life in this way. It can only be used to break through ranks, and this is the only opportunity available.
"I never expected to directly step into the seventh rank, or even the most powerful seventh rank!" Ye Chen couldn't help but exclaim as he felt the rising aura on the Primordial Star.
Unlike other lords, whose territories advance while their clans struggle to break through, he was the opposite. His clans were all stuck at the peak of the sixth rank, waiting for their territories to break through so that their strength could improve. In fact, he was the one holding all his clans back.
"What a sin! You're all amazing!" Ye Chen thought to himself with self-reproach. He felt that the development of the Primordial Star was entirely due to these clansmen who carried it forward. He was just a lord who was lazy and idle, enjoying the fruits of others' labor. But lords have endless lifespans, and he just couldn't die...
A day later, a second divine aura finally appeared after Nuwa. It was not Ye Xi or anyone else, but Xu Changqing, who was setting up the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen" with Kunpeng. Xu Changqing was an all-rounder who was well-versed in the Zhou Tian Xing Dou and various other knowledge. He finally surpassed others and broke through the bottleneck immediately after advancing to the seventh level on the Primordial Star, becoming the second demigod after Nuwa.
As a result, Ye Chen bestowed upon him the name Fuxi!
