The Seven Luminaries Heaven had already been battered beyond recognition, later completely data-processed, resembling a chaotic egg.
The addition of the ideal kingdom was like adding a spoonful of cold water into boiling oil.
Splash!
Chaos split apart, clear air rose and turned into the do sky, while turbid air descended, forming the vast earth.
A continent appeared, one not inferior to the aggregate of the previous Yan Han and the West, heavenly and earthly round, yet only a stark silence.
"This place can be nad... the Great Wilderness!"
The Great Wilderness Continent!
This is the na Zhong Shenxiu gave to this land!
He descended upon the western frontier of the Great Wilderness, lightly tapped the ground, boom!
A giant mountain peak rose abruptly, towering and majestic.
"This mountain can be nad... Kunlun!"
After all, in cultivating immortality, naming it Kunlun Mountain definitely has appeal.
Moreover, the requirent for digesting the ideal kingdom was to let the world develop according to his own will. Zhong Shenxiu didn't replicate the geography of the previous Yan Han, but rather did as he pleased.
"Hmm... The sun and the moon should each be singular, any excess shall be brought down."
Zhong Shenxiu opened his hands, his attire suddenly transford, clad in the garnts of nine layers of clouds, in front of him appeared a massive green jade palace.
He pondered, and on the plaque of the palace appeared three large characters—East King Palace!
"Since I am the Donghua True Monarch, I might as well continue... and style myself as—the East King!"
Zhong Shenxiu arrived at the East King Palace, seated on the green jade chair, a fragnt of secret history appeared in his hand.
Lines of text appeared and constantly disappeared on the parchnt:
[Taichu, heavens and earth chaotic as an egg... (smudged) (smudged)... Creation, clear and turbid divided into heavens and earth!]
[The Great Wilderness has a mountain, nad Kunlun, upon which a fairy nad—East King resides!]
…
"This torn sheet, knows sensibility, and knows to avoid defaming the eminent."
Zhong Shenxiu touched the parchnt, a smile appeared on his face: "However, since there is the East King Palace in Kunlun, how can the Queen Mother of the West be absent?"
He snapped his fingers.
Snap!
A cluster of information state descended, revealing the figure of a graceful lady, dreamlike, both real and unreal...
Imdiately, Zhong Shenxiu activated the light of order, turning her chaotic state into a defined form.
Lord Qingyuan opened her eyes and saw a palace made of green jade, her husband seated at the main seat, wearing the crown of three dinsions, clad in a robe of nine-colored clouds and mist.
"Husband, where is this..."
Lord Qingyuan asked blankly.
She only rembered a descending fire, nearly extinguishing the world, closing her eyes waiting for death.
Then, how did she arrive here upon reopening her eyes?
"This is the Great Wilderness Kunlun Mountain, I am the East King, today I consecrate you as the Queen Mother of the West! Preside over the Lunar Star!"
Zhong Shenxiu spoke as if with heavenly decree.
Lord Qingyuan had limited aptitude, cultivating immortality was too difficult, better to directly beco a deity.
Although preparing to postpone the reappearance of the Second Yan Han Empire, close individuals naturally receive preferential treatnt.
Moreover, the world was his creation, effortlessly granting a divine position.
Even, with the Queen Mother of the West presiding over the lunar star, also the foremost female fairy, sovereign of lunar energy, goddess of immortality, presiding over all things' fertility, marriage, protecting won and more, a high divine rank.
Though now it doesn't yet show, with the growth of the world, the future is full of promise.
"Yes!"
Lord Qingyuan though unsure why, an imposing atmosphere made her reverently comply, bowing to Zhong Shenxiu.
Upon this bowing, the nine-colored crown robe appeared on her automatically, enveloped by divine light, seemingly maturing in an instant, becoming a dignified Empress.
Lord Qingyuan, or rather the Queen Mother of the West, suddenly understood many things, her deanor slightly sorrowful: "My world, my empire, has now beco like this?"
"What we lost was a re broken wasteland, and what we gained is the entire world!"
Zhong Shenxiu holding the Queen Mother of the West's hand, laughed: "A flourishing Yan Han era shall certainly be as you wish!"
"Though beco ruler of all feminine powers in this realm, but... the Great Wilderness is truly too barren."
The Queen Mother of the West seated below Zhong Shenxiu, suddenly sighed.
"No matter!"
Zhong Shenxiu waved: "The sun rises, the moon sets, yin and yang conjoin to produce thunder, thunder enters the sea nurturing life, this is the Heavenly Dao! I govern the sun, you govern the moon, crafting all things, but re commonplace!"
The East King, also known by the titles 'Emperor Donghua', 'Jade Emperor', and... 'East Emperor Taiyi'!
Thus, originally the deity governing the sun!
And the Sun God in any creation myth holds an extraordinarily important position, even straightforwardly as the Creator God!
"Since creation has been done, then craft all things."
The Queen Mother of the West, slightly excited like a little girl, unknown what she thought of, a pretty blush appeared on her face.
That day, over the Great Wilderness, the sun and moon shone simultaneously!
Yin and yang energies combined in creation, generating thunder.
Thunder fell into the sea, spawning countless wondrous and exotic beasts.
There were yellow birds, Qilin, Dragons, Phoenixes, Kunpeng, flying creatures and beasts automatically left the sea, coming to the Great Wilderness to live and reproduce.
Thunder brought movent, clouds ford, turning into rain, nourishing the earth, birthing countless spiritual wood and fine grain.
Finally.
A figure resembling an ape walked out from the sea, behind it, more primitive humans.
All of this, of course, is not coincidence, but certain inevitability.
Because this world's Heavenly Dao, held by Zhong Shenxiu, with him as the backstage orchestrator writing the script, under the secret propulsion of heavenly intention, any coincidence, inevitability... all becoming 'certainty'!
Whatever the script states, will certainly be perford in the Great Wilderness!
This is the greatest secret of this world, also the necessary path to digesting the 'ideal kingdom'!
Kunlun Mountain, within the East King Palace.
The East King said to the Queen Mother of the West: "Our ti is limitless, now the Great Wilderness in need of all types of developnt, should act without interference, operating the Heavenly Dao, letting it grow naturally... I shall retreat for cultivation, hereafter all external affairs, you will preside."
Zhong Shenxiu naturally must retreat for cultivation.
He needs to suppress madness with sleep, digest the benefits brought by ascension, and also deduce the orthodox Immortal Dao legacy of localization.
Besides, he needs to transform into countless forms, travel to nurous worlds, and harvest rationality.
"Please rest assured, husband!"
With solemnity, the Queen Mother of the West bowed to Zhong Shenxiu.
Zhong Shenxiu remained fairly assured, after all, with him controlling heavenly intention, the Queen Mother of the West acting out of line wouldn't be easy.
Moreover, strength in hand, even if major mistakes occur, at worst obliterate the world anew, rebuild again.
Except the progress of digesting unique divinity would lag slightly, there were no other drawbacks.
Eventually, the East King sealed a palace, falling into lengthy retreat.
And above the Great Wilderness, humanity gradually evolved from savage tribes consuming raw at and drink blood, to societies cultivating with fire and blade, their physical appearance continually aligning with Yan Han lineage, with nurous outstanding talents appearing.
For instance, Suirenshi, Fu Xi, Shennong...
Ultimately, they were revered by later generations as—the Three Sovereigns Five Emperors!
History unfolded a new chapter.
…
[East King has a wife, nad 'Queen Mother of the West', splendid and dignified, beyond comparison, presiding over the authority of all creation's germination, possessing Immortal Elixirs able to grant eternal life!]—Fragnt of Secret History.
