As Chu's consciousness merged with the divine artifacts from various states, Ye Ling felt an exceptionally powerful aura slowly taking shape.
Through the ball of light, Ye Ling could see a nine-tailed white fox faintly appearing in the center, surrounded by the various divine artifacts.
The power of the divine artifacts was being absorbed by the nine-tailed white fox.
The World-Destroying Spirit Fire sensed the aura emanating from Chu and exclaimed, "Kid, something's not right with Chu's aura. Are you sure you want him to merge with the consciousness derived from the divine artifacts?"
Ye Ling frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
The World-Destroying Spirit Fire said, "Although I don't know Chu's origin, I can feel a distinct aura of creation from him. His previous life must have been a creation god! We don't even know if Chu is friend or foe. If you let him revive with the consciousness of the divine artifacts now, what if you create an enemy creation god?"
Ye Ling said, "You don't need to worry about that. Chu is my friend, and I believe he won't betray me. If he can awaken as a creation god, it would be beneficial for us."
"Moreover... even if Chu chooses to become our enemy after becoming a creation god, with my current strength, I don't have to worry too much."
Seeing Ye Ling's confidence, the World-Destroying Spirit Fire stopped its dissuasion and said, "Alright, since you think it's fine, I won't worry unnecessarily. However, you still need to be more careful. After all, we still have to deal with the Seven Star Pillars and that creation god Di Chu who seeks to be resurrected. If another enemy creation god appears, it won't be good news for us."
"Mm."
Ye Ling nodded slightly and focused all his attention on Chu, guarding against any accidents.
Cultivators inside and outside Tianren City could see a white nine-tailed fox gestating within the melting divine artifacts, their faces filled with disbelief.
At this moment, the aura emanating from Chu had reached a level incomprehensible to the powerful cultivators of the First Heaven.
The cultivators of various states, who were initially resentful of their divine artifacts being stolen, could no longer suppress their impulses after sensing Chu's powerful and sacred aura. They all landed and bowed towards Chu.
Now, after absorbing the divine artifacts from various states, Chu seemed to have become the new Heavenly Dao of this world, the sole faith in the hearts of all beings.
"What is Chu's origin? This rising aura seems to have no limit!" Ye Ling watched Chu's aura continuously rise within the light, becoming increasingly shocked and extremely curious about Chu's past identity!
The World-Destroying Spirit Fire suddenly thought of something and quickly said to Ye Ling, "Kid, didn't you get Bai Qing's prescription earlier? If you're sure Chu will be our friend in the future, why don't you create a body for Chu! He'll definitely need one after awakening!"
"This way, we'll have another creation god on our side, and we'll have a better chance of fighting against the Lord of the Upper Realm!"
Hearing the World-Destroying Spirit Fire's words, Ye Ling also had a flash of inspiration, "That's right! Regardless of whether Chu will be our friend later, we can prepare in advance!"
Even if Chu were to become their enemy later, they could simply destroy the body they prepared, and the loss wouldn't be too great.
With this thought, Ye Ling acted immediately, beginning to review Bai Qing's prescription and learn how to create the body of a creation god.
Although creating the body of a creation god required many materials Ye Ling had never heard of, fortunately, Bai Qing had clearly described the properties and composition of each material. Ye Ling could simulate those materials using runes according to Bai Qing's prescription.
The power of runes was a universal force that could even simulate the power of the Great Dao. Coupled with Ye Ling's masterful attainments in runes, as long as he knew the properties and basic composition of things, it was not difficult for him to simulate those things using runes!
After learning the properties of all the materials needed to create the body of a creation god, Ye Ling instructed Bai Ling beside him, "Bai Ling, help me seal off Tianren City. No one is allowed to leave the city, nor is anyone allowed to transmit any information outside!"
"Yes!"
Bai Ling bowed respectfully, then waved his hand, summoning the disciples of the Qingyue Sect to control the entire city, even apprehending the cultivators lingering outside Tianren City and bringing them into the city.
The sudden mobilization and control by the Qingyue Sect disciples once again caused chaos in Tianren City. The entire city was in turmoil, and everyone was speculating about what Ye Ling intended to do by confining them to the city.
However, Ye Ling no longer had the time to bother with the chaos in the city. After assigning the task to Bai Ling, he sat down on the spot, runes appearing around him as he rapidly simulated and constructed the materials needed for the body of a creation god.
On the other side, Chu had also finished absorbing the power of all the divine artifacts and merged with the consciousness derived from them, evolving into a small, snow-white nine-tailed fox with a black lotus appearing between its eyebrows.
However, after merging with the consciousness of the divine artifacts, Chu did not stop evolving. The aura of his entire body continued to rise, showing signs of merging with this world and becoming the Heavenly Dao of the First Heaven.
The cultivators of Tianren City, looking at Ye Ling surrounded by runes and Chu gestating divine power, no longer had the time to ponder Ye Ling's schemes. They could not suppress their admiration for Ye Ling and Chu and knelt down once again, kowtowing repeatedly.
The entire Tianren City looked quite bizarre.
Time...
Passed by bit by bit.
Ye Ling gradually simulated all the materials needed to create the body of a creation god using runes, while Chu on the other side gradually stabilized the powerful energy within his body and regained control of his physical form.
Seeing Chu's aura subside, the World-Destroying Spirit Fire became nervous and reminded Ye Ling, "Kid! Stop fiddling with your runes. Chu seems to have regained consciousness. Hurry up and test his limits!"
"Mm."
Ye Ling slowly opened his eyes, put away the materials simulated by the runes into his spatial ring, looked at Chu, who had transformed into a nine-tailed white fox, and softly called out, "Chu?"
Chu opened his eyes, looked at Ye Ling with clear eyes, tilted his head, and asked, "What is it?"
Seeing Chu's clear eyes, Ye Ling knew that Chu harbored no hostility towards him, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He then asked Chu, "After absorbing the divine artifacts, have you undergone any changes?"
Chu blinked and replied, "I can feel a closer connection to this world... and I have a lot more memories in my head, seemingly of things I experienced before."
"Your past memories?" Ye Ling was curious, "Do you know your origin now?"
"Mm..."
Chu nodded, "I remember now... My name seems to be Di Chu, and I was once a creation god."
Upon hearing Chu's answer, Ye Ling's expression froze, his face filled with disbelief.
"You, you are Di Chu?"
