243: Mountains, Rivers, and States

While he was pondering, star matter emerged from his body and solidified in Yang Dian's hand.

For a while, it transformed into a small sword, then a small knife, followed by long spears, great halberds, heavy hammers, giant axes, wolf-tooth staffs... all eighteen common weapons, countless types of weapons. Anything Yang Dian had seen even a rough outline of was now evolving in his hand.

As the star matter transformed into various weapons, past experiences and all sorts of knowledge gained from different channels reappeared in Yang Dian's mind.

The Divine Dao Legacy: faith, Divine Artifacts, the art of Mental Energy resonance, devouring sentient beings to become a god... The Martial Dao Legacy: Cultivation Techniques, Martial Skills, methods for strengthening the spirit through visualization, the path of self-transcendence... Awakening and Mutation: Awakening, mutation, controlling extraordinary power, but with a hazy future... The knowledge system of Different World Spirit Pattern, which he had only glimpsed... The anger rune template obtained from studying the mutated octopus... The Chengdu spatial node, where wind birds gathered and moved in formation... Countless ideas surged in Yang Dian's mind, and countless inspirations burst forth in his brain.

But looking at the panel in front of him, which began to flash rapidly as if it would die at any moment, he let out a bitter laugh.

"It's still too forced, the accumulation is still not enough."

After a bitter laugh, he finally decided to set a foundation first.

"First, I need to determine what kind of Cultivation Technique I want to create."

"Firstly, the Cultivation Technique must have a strong sense of belonging and recognition towards Huaxia Civilization. Only those who are proud to be Citizens of Huaxia Civilization from the bottom of their hearts can Cultivate it."

"Otherwise, it will be like my first time Cultivating the Heaven and Man Unity Skill, where the visualization thoughts didn't match reality, leading to Qi Deviation."

"Secondly, the Cultivation Technique must be simple and easy to understand, and possess the ability to allow people to advance quickly."

"In this regard, Martial Arts Calisthenics is quite good, but it's not fast enough."

"Therefore, a Divine Artifact can be created, paired with the art of Mental Energy resonance, to resonate with a Martial Artist's spirit."

"United will builds a city. When believers' spirits resonate, a massive amount of faith can be generated. And faith, in essence, is the condensation of believers' spiritual beliefs..."

"Why should something that belongs to oneself be offered to other gods? Why can't it be offered to oneself?"

"So, I need to find a way to change the object of faith."

"Offer extreme spiritual belief to oneself, transforming oneself into a god, and promoting the growth of Martial Dao Realms..."

"Besides that, the Divine Artifact is also very important."

"It must carry the beliefs of all Martial Artists, and it must be something that everyone can resonate with."

"So?"

"Land!"

"Create a territory map, depicting the history of Huaxia Civilization."

"The mountains and rivers on the map are the territory of Huaxia Civilization..."

"The history depicted is its past glory..."

"Huaxia Civilization was once brilliant, but in the future, it will be even more glorious!"

"Those who expand territory, those who defend their homes and country, regardless of life or death, will leave their images and names on the territory map..."

"To leave complete images, simply move all the images of battles, skirmishes, and wars, big and small, into the territory map, and then let the 'protagonists' of those battles, skirmishes, and wars leave their Martial Dao insights and will on the territory map."

"Martial arts practice before the map."

"Those with a strong sense of belonging to Huaxia Civilization can resonate with the territory map. Based on what they have learned, their spirits can possess the images left on the territory map, fight alongside them, resonate with their Martial Dao will, and obtain the Martial Dao Legacy..."

"So the territory map is very important."

"It can solve many problems."

"Besides that, the Divine Dao has Divine Domains. Can the territory map become a Divine Domain, covering the territory of Huaxia Civilization?"

"Within the territory, as long as one visualizes the territory map, one can receive its blessing. Both Cultivation speed and combat power can increase with this blessing."

"However, how to achieve this idea is a bit problematic."

"Pray to Heaven?"

"I don't know if the mother earth will respond..."

"Also, since it's an augmenting ability, perhaps I should go find that Moose and see what its ability is all about..."

"Besides the extravagant thoughts above, there are actually more areas that can be added."

"For example, if Mental Energy and will are united, can Qi and blood be unified?"

"After Martial Artists form a legion, can their Qi and blood condense together under a unified will, forming a Qi and blood manifestation, unleashing extraordinary power far exceeding individual strength?"

"Just like those small wind birds, a single one is very weak, but if they gather in a flock, they can pose a fatal threat to me."

"If their numbers reach tens of thousands, perhaps even the Director would have trouble dealing with them..."

Thinking of this, Yang Dian stopped his movements, and the star matter disintegrated into light, re-integrating into his body.

"I have the idea, now it's time for practical implementation."

"Continue to accumulate Martial Dao foundation, and try to perfect the 'Unnamed Divine Cultivation Technique' as much as possible, as it is the foundation of everything."

"Then, it's time to create a territory map."

Yang Dian casually took out his phone and began to compose a message, putting his thoughts into text and sending it to Han Zhang.

Then Han Zhang sent two very realistic questions.

"Without Divine Power, how do you refine a Divine Artifact?"

"Divine Artifacts are refined by gods. How can one ensure that gods are selfless?"

Yang Dian was stunned when he saw the message.

He had just been preoccupied with figuring out how to improve the Martial Dao strength of the Citizens, and he hadn't really thought about how to create the most crucial territory map.

After carefully considering the process of refining a Divine Artifact, Yang Dian had an idea.

"All Citizens will refine the Divine Artifact together."

"Divine Artifacts require Divine Power to refine, and Divine Power, to put it plainly, is purified faith."

"If purified faith can refine Divine Artifacts, why can't the united will of the people?"

"I will find a way to ignite the fire of will, and use the fire of will to temper the Materials and refine the Divine Artifact."

Two minutes after the message was sent, Han Zhang replied to Yang Dian:

"During this time, we will try to prepare as many rare items and spiritual ores as possible, reserving 30% of them as a reserve for forging the Divine Artifact."

"However, if a method to ignite the fire of will is not found after 1 year, these rare items and spiritual Materials will be put to military use."

Yang Dian smiled after receiving the reply.

He already had an idea for igniting the fire of will.

For example, find a special 'rare item', and then use this special 'rare item' as the core to create a visualization method.

Imbue the visualization method with the concept of the 'Huaxia Civilization Tinder'. As long as one actively visualizes towards strengthening the 'Huaxia Civilization Tinder', Mental Energy can be improved, and a 'tinder' will be born within the 'rare item'.

This 'tinder' is the fire of will.

As for the 'rare item' itself, it needs to have the ability to span countless distances and receive countless 'tinders'.

As for whether such a rare item exists?

Yang Dian believed that the mother earth would not disappoint him.

He spread his arms, embraced the sky, and entered the state of Unity of Man and Nature.

Guidance followed.

Yang Dian reached down.

He reached into his pocket...
