Rewriting the Gods

Looking at the vast amount of resources before him, Jiang Haofeng nodded in satisfaction. Without saying a word, he waved his hand, and nine-colored mystic light rose up, unleashing a powerful pressure that enveloped the entire human realm.

In an instant, all the cultivators in the human realm were alarmed.

Everyone went outside, and saw that the scene in the void was more magnificent than ever before.

The vast nine-colored mystic light, like starlight, filled the sky. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the endless nine-colored mystic light rose and merged in the void, eventually transforming into a nine-colored furnace that reached the heavens and the earth.

Its shape is somewhat similar to Laozi's Bagua Furnace, but the inscriptions on it are far more extensive than those on Laozi's.

Laozi's Eight Trigrams Furnace is engraved with the Eight Trigrams Formation, which is in accordance with the innate Eight Trigrams and contains the Six Ding Divine Fire.

Meanwhile, the refining furnace in the void was not only engraved with the Bagua formation, but also with more than 10,000 kinds of Great Dao that Jiang Haofeng had mastered. The fusion of the 10,000 Great Daos created a vast pressure that even suppressed the entire human realm!

As for the flames inside, this refining furnace contains all the flames recorded since the beginning of time.

The Great Sun Golden Flame, one of the four primordial spirits of chaos, the degenerated True Sun Fire, Laozi's Six Ding Divine Fire, Nanming Li Fire, Red Lotus Karmic Fire, Netherworld Ghost Fire, Ziwei Heavenly Fire, Samadhi True Fire, and even the immortal flame of the human race are among them!

This refining furnace contains all the flames found in the primordial world and the four great worlds that Jiang Haofeng has set foot in!

It contains the life fire of the elves, the holy fire of the angels, and various flames from the Supreme Realm, the God and Demon Realm, and the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm. Every flame Jiang Haofeng has ever seen is here!

Tens of thousands of flames burned fiercely inside the refining furnace, eventually merging together to transform into a nine-colored immortal fire, containing the essence of all fires, and possessing extraordinary power. This is the fire that Jiang Haofeng used to refine weapons today.

"Today, I will forge the first city of the Zhou Dynasty. You may all observe it for yourselves and perhaps gain something from it!"

"As for those who are in seclusion and those who are going out, there is no need to worry. Zhisheng will record this scene in history, and you can exchange your contribution points for the corresponding historical snapshots in the Hall of Merit."

Indeed, after the entire human race migrated to the Human Realm and gained their own unique Human Realm, Zhisheng, who recorded these historical events, experienced a significant improvement in his cultivation.

Although Zhisheng has not sparred with anyone yet, and the rest of the clan is unaware that this unassuming elder has improved his skills significantly, Jiang Haofeng, who spends every day with Zhisheng, knows his strength best.

Among the human race right now, in terms of the level of the Great Dao alone, Zhi Sheng is second only to me!

He was even stronger than Xuandu, and had taken another step closer to the goal of merging with Xuandu.

Zhisheng, who has comprehended the Great Dao to this extent, may not be able to summon Jiang Haofeng at his peak from the past, but recording a snapshot of history is still easy for him.

Not only can Zhisheng recreate the process of building the city, but he can also recreate events that have occurred in human history.

Zhisheng has already made copies of Jiang Haofeng's forty sermons in the prehistoric world and placed them in the Hall of Merit. Anyone who needs them can exchange them from their clan.

With the historical snapshots rubbing by Zhisheng, the Hall of Merit has been greatly enriched. There are more things that can be exchanged with contribution points, so there is no need to worry about contribution points not being able to circulate.

Of course, as the one who creates historical snapshots, Zhisheng will also receive a large number of merit points from the Hall of Merit, which he can exchange for anything he needs.

However, there aren't many things in the Hall of Merit that Zhisheng can actually find appealing, and even the few that he can find appealing, he can exchange for them all in no time.

Later on, these merit points will just be a number.

However, these are all normal phenomena. The contribution point system itself was not established for the clan elders, but more for the clan members below.

For clan elders like Jiang Haofeng, contribution points are useless; they're just a bunch of numbers, and each elder has a bunch of contribution points in their hands.

But for the entire human race, the contribution point system has a great role to play. It can unite the human race tightly, turning them from a scattered bunch into a large, organized race!
And this is exactly what Jiang Haofeng and the other clan elders hoped to see!

Getting back to the main point, after Jiang Haofeng finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to the clansmen below and focused all his attention on the large cauldron in front of him.

Forging acquired treasures was not a problem for Jiang Haofeng. He had forged all kinds of magical treasures except for those comparable to top-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Long ago, Jiang Haofeng's strongest trump card—the Three Bodies and Nine Corpses—contained six high-grade innate spiritual treasures.

This was also the first time Jiang Haofeng had forged a treasure of this level. In order to be able to sever his corpse, Jiang Haofeng even went to Nuwa Palace to ask the goddess Nuwa to reverse his innate nature.

However, building a city would be quite a challenge.

Most importantly, this great city of Zhou Tian will be needed to suppress the human realm in the future, so its area cannot be too small and its foundation cannot be weak.

If one's foundation is too weak, it's possible that when they fuse weapons at the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal or even a Quasi-Saint, they won't be able to advance to the next level, which would be troublesome.

According to Jiang Haofeng's plan, once the weapons in Zhou Tian City are fused, all of them must be upgraded to top-grade innate spiritual treasures, and all those who fuse the weapons must also advance to the quasi-saint level.

If one lacks sufficient foundational knowledge, this requirement cannot be met.

Suppressing his thoughts, Jiang Haofeng waved his hand, and a large amount of resources broke through the air from the Tai Xuan Realm—Tai Xuan Domain, falling into the refining furnace like a galaxy.

At the same time, flames roared up inside the refining furnace, with nine-colored flames burning intensely within, instantly turning these precious remnants into liquid.

Before these nine-colored flames, these materials at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortals, or even Quasi-Saints, were utterly insignificant and were melted in the blink of an eye.

Forging a city is different from forging ordinary magical artifacts. A city is too large to use all the materials of the correct grade. If that were the case, even if the human race were ten times larger, they would not be able to support it.

The core uses materials at the Quasi-Saint level, the next level uses materials at the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, and the next level uses materials at the Golden Immortal level.

The city lord's mansion, the inner city, and the outer city were built separately...
Following his own ideas, Jiang Haofeng began to gradually build the city. A massive amount of materials at the Quasi-Saint level were melted down and then used by Jiang Haofeng to build a twelve-courtyard mansion, which would later become the core territory of the city and the place where the city was managed.

Then, with the City Lord's Mansion as the core, eighty wards of the same size were built around it in a nine-square grid pattern. Each ward had three streets running through it and hundreds of courtyards. Including the City Lord's Mansion at the core, there were a total of eighty-one wards, which constituted the inner city!

Then, based on the standards of the inner city, expand it eighty times and build eighty wards, which will form the outer city!
Thus, the first Zhou Tian Great City was completed.

The outer city has eighty large wards, each as large as the inner city. Every room and every inch of ground inside is made of materials at the Golden Immortal level, and many of them are even at the Taiyi Golden Immortal level!
The inner city comprises eighty wards, each the same size as the city lord's mansion. Every inch of ground and every building is crafted from materials of the caliber of a Great Luo Golden Immortal. As for the most central city lord's mansion, it is even forged from materials of the quasi-saint level!

Thus, the first great city of Zhou Tian was completely completed.

In the human realm.

Countless humans looked up at the city-building process in the void. The nine-colored refining furnace in the void was different from ordinary refining furnaces. Its material was like clouds and mist, and everyone could easily see what was inside through its outer wall.

As the outer city walls were completed, countless people in the human realm cheered.

One hundred and eight days have passed since the ancestor began building the city. Thirty-six days have been spent building the city lord's mansion, the inner city, and the outer city.

After 108 days, the casting was finally completed.

Even Jiang Haofeng's lips curled into a smile. The process of building the city was much simpler than he had imagined. The workload seemed huge, but the difficulty was not high.

Of course, this is from my own perspective. If Xuandu and Fuxi were to take action, it would be quite difficult, and it would probably take thousands of years to complete.

Jiang Haofeng smiled and shook his head, suppressing his thoughts. He gazed at the great city within the refining furnace, pondered for a moment, and then waved his hand, causing three bold, iron-stroke characters to appear at the city gate.

Tai Xuan City!
The first city of the human race in the Zhou Tian realm is named Tai Xuan!
With a wave of his hand, Jiang Haofeng caused the refining furnace in the void to transform into nine-colored mystic light. The rich nine-colored mystic light gathered again in the void, transforming into a nine-colored book, which then merged into Jiang Haofeng's body.

That's right, the forging furnace just now was transformed from Jiang Haofeng's Dao-proving treasure - the Myriad Laws Diagram!
Jiang Haofeng is skilled in all paths and can transform into countless forms. His Dao-proving treasure is also like this; it looks like a book, but it can actually transform into any shape.

Swords, spears, halberds, and all sorts of magical weapons can be transformed!
It's no exaggeration to say that the Myriad Laws Record can transform any magical artifact Jiang Haofeng has ever seen, and it will generally be stronger than the original artifact. The refining furnace just now was modeled after Laozi's Eight Trigrams Furnace.

However, the refining furnace transformed by the Wanfa Diagram is far superior to Laozi's original Bagua furnace.

After retrieving the Myriad Laws Diagram, the Tai Xuan City, which Jiang Haofeng had spent 108 days forging, appeared in the void. Jiang Haofeng glanced at it from top to bottom, then gently tossed it, and the Tai Xuan City landed below Yang Mei's main body.

The enormous canopy of the trees perfectly sheltered the city, making the entire city appear very tranquil and beautiful.

Jiang Haofeng's gaze swept over the human race below, and he said, "Zhou Tian Great City will be the core that suppresses the human realm in the future, the core of the world, and also the source of spiritual energy in the realm."

"The 360 ​​Zhou Tian Guardian Cities are 360 ​​sources of spiritual energy. Some of the spiritual energy entering the human realm travels through these Zhou Tian Cities. The spiritual energy within these cities is far more abundant than in other places!"

"The spiritual energy obtained by Fellow Daoist Yangmei from the rest of my core in the Human Realm will be evenly distributed throughout the earth's veins and the sky through the roots and branches, slowly nourishing the world."

"The spiritual energy obtained from the other clans' most precious treasures will be evenly distributed throughout the nine provinces of the world by the Nine Cauldrons!"

"The concentration of spiritual energy is roughly the same in all human realms."

"But Zhou Tian guards the big city differently; their spiritual energy spreads slowly from the city to the rest of the human realm."

"If any of you wish to rent a more luxurious cave dwelling, you can do so at the Merit Hall using contribution points. The minimum rental period is one month, with no upper limit!"

As soon as the words were spoken, many immortals in the human realm revealed their brilliance. The concentration of spiritual energy might not be very important to high-level cultivators, but it is an indispensable cultivation resource for low-level cultivators below the Golden Immortal level.

Cultivators below the Golden Immortal level rely heavily on the concentration of spiritual energy in heaven and earth for their cultivation.

Even the cultivation from Golden Immortal to Great Luo Golden Immortal, although not as essential as the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for cultivators below Golden Immortal, still has a very low efficiency in converting chaotic energy. If possible, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the better.

These words immediately struck a chord with many people.

Jiang Haofeng smiled, looked at the top cultivators in the clan, and asked, "Who is willing to guard Tai Xuan City?"

"This city is the foremost of the great cities guarding the Zhou Tian constellations, corresponding to the Ziwei Emperor Star in the Zhou Tian constellations. It is the most crucial city among the great cities of Zhou Tian!"

"Those who wish to become the guardian can sign up directly. If there are too many people, a magical contest will be held, and the winner will be chosen!"

As soon as Jiang Haofeng finished speaking, the group of Great Luo Golden Immortals obediently sat back down.

If it were other cities, it would be fine; even those at the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal could compete. After all, there are as many as 360 great cities in Zhou Tian, ​​while the clan only has a little over 100 Quasi-Saints.

Most of the cities will definitely be suppressed by the Great Luo Golden Immortals.

However, Tai Xuan City in front of us is clearly not in this category. As the top city in the Zhou Tian region, it is undoubtedly suppressed by a powerful being at the Quasi-Saint level.

Just as the group of Quasi-Saints were eager to try, Jiang Haofeng spoke again: "There's no need for those at the peak of Quasi-Saint level. This Tai Xuan City is currently only comparable to a high-grade innate spiritual treasure. If those at the peak of Quasi-Saint level use it as a weapon to prove their Dao, it will inevitably drag down your combat power."

"Right now, our clan is established in the Chaos Realm and has countless resources. You may wish to wait a while. If we can find the core resources, we might as well use top-grade innate spiritual treasures to fuse with weapons and prove our Dao."

"Using this as a means to prove one's path is such a waste!"

Upon hearing this, many eager individuals hesitated. Indeed, although the city possessed formidable resources, it was still only a top-grade innate spiritual treasure, ultimately falling short of its potential.
Even after attaining enlightenment, Tai Xuan City can still advance and become a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

But the problem is, if one finds a top-grade innate spiritual treasure in advance, wouldn't one be even more powerful after attaining enlightenment? Even if it's not as good as an innate supreme treasure or a chaotic spiritual treasure, it would still far surpass ordinary top-grade innate spiritual treasures!
It is far more powerful than a top-grade innate spiritual treasure.

In an instant, all the peak Quasi-Saints realized that they were indeed not suitable to be stationed in this city.

Having a Quasi-Saint Peak suppress Zhou Tian City is a waste for both the Quasi-Saint Peak members themselves and for the human race.

Therefore, everyone's attention turned to the clan elders in the early, middle and late stages of Quasi-Saint, especially the few in the middle and late stages of Quasi-Saint.

This is the first city after all, so it will definitely not be handed over to an early-stage Quasi-Saint. It will most likely be a late-stage Quasi-Saint, or at the very least, a mid-stage Quasi-Saint to suppress it!

It remains to be seen who will ultimately prevail and become the leader of the Zhou Tian Guardian! (End of Chapter)
