79 Celestials - 79

Due to the fact that Zhou Fan was much stronger than before, the animals around the world reproduced much faster. Although it was hard on the mothers and fathers, they were able to withstand it thanks to the Life Qi.

After he finished spreading Life Qi around the world, Zhou Fan went to look at the supreme beasts that had been born in the Zhou World.

Although they had previously been able to split up the world between each other, they now didn't occupy even 1% of it.

Even if they spent their entire lives traveling around the world, they wouldn't make it halfway.

One thing Zhou Fan was able to figure out was the lifespan of these supreme beasts. Although thousands of years had passed, this was only the second generation. Not to mention the fact that the new ones were only 100 years old.

Zhou Fan expected there to be many more supreme beasts after a couple of years. It would be weird if there wasn't any more after the expansion of the world.

What Zhou Fan was more interested in was creating a human-like race. That had been his goal for a while, but he wasn't quite sure how to go about it.

A major issue was intelligence. The supreme beasts of the Zhou world were about as intelligent as humans, but they weren't able to reproduce more than one offspring.

What Zhou Fan wanted was a race that were able to reproduce like humans while also being much more powerful. Of course, he would introduce cultivation to them, but he wanted them to be born stronger than a normal human.

With his current power, such a thing wouldn't be difficult at all. The biggest matter was how powerful he could make them.

Zhou Fan was aiming for them to be born with the strength of core formation, without the use of Qi. With that, they would be much stronger than any other existence in the same realm.

The only race that may be able to contend with them was humans. Although they had shown many weaknesses in Zhou Fan's lifetime, Zhou Fan believed that humans were a one of a kind race.

After all, he was born from humans. Although someone like him may never be born again, someone almost as good as him might.

Many times, Zhou Fan had thought about whether he was an unnatural creation. He had considered that he could be the son of the universe or a personification of the cosmic Dao.

In the end, however, he chose to believe that he was a freak accident. It was likely that he was born from pure chance. He was born without a destiny or reason for life.

But he couldn't be sure.

Anyway, Zhou Fan didn't believe for a second that he could emulate the human race. But he may be able to create a very similar race, and maybe one day they would become similar to humans with their seemingly infinite potential.

It seemed that it would rely on chance.

As for creating the race, Zhou Fan decided to use a piece of his mind to give them true consciousness. Their intelligence would be even greater than humans. As for the reproduction problem, Zhou Fan had a couple of ideas.

Zhou Fan reached into the ocean and pulled out two microorganisms. Instead of crudely applying Life Qi and seeing what happens, Zhou Fan guided them through the process.

He guided the form they would take and the traits they would have, all while applying various Qi's to them. Like humans, they would have the potential to use every type of Qi.

After thinking for a bit, Zhou Fan designed them to have a body shape very similar to humans, but to have some of their features different.

Instead of the various hairstyles and colors that humans have, the new race would have white hair that would always grow out to be fairly long unless they really wanted it short. The white hair would be pure and beautiful, while being more masculine or feminine depending on the gender.

Next, their eyes would only have two colors: red and purple. Red would represent males while purple would represent females.

The red would be deep and cosmic, while the purple would also be deep and cosmic.

With some slight changes to some unimportant features, Zhou Fan finished designing his new race.

He would call them 'celestials'.

All that was left was to have them grow out into their forms. With an immense burst of Life Qi, the tiny organisms ballooned up into their celestial forms.

One, with red eyes, was a male. The other, with purple eyes, was a female. Before they gained consciousness, Zhou Fan teleported them to a garden that he had set up not too long ago.

It was on the other side of the world where animals had not yet been born. All that was there was a bunch of fruits and vegetables. They wouldn't be a vegan race, but Zhou Fan decided to let them be alone for now.

As he sent them away, Zhou Fan implanted the English language and the name of their race into their minds.

He also created two books and teleported them onto the ground next to them. That book would teach them cultivation and many different things such as forging, concocting, and formations.

They didn't really need cultivation to survive in the current world due to their bodies which already had the strength of a core formation cultivator, but Zhou Fan didn't plan to have them as the sole cultivators in the world.

He also implanted basic cultivation knowledge into every animal's mind, including the supreme beasts. Every animal or supreme beast born in the future would have that knowledge in their minds.

As for Qi, Zhou Fan quickly set up a Qi producing array that would produce absorbable Qi throughout the world. It would last years and years.

Now, all that was left was to wait.
