354: Reshaping time and space, engraving mountains and seas

It took him half a month to deduce the refining process of the territory map.

After repeatedly entering the Unity of Man and Nature state and consuming World's Favor to confirm that the refining would not go wrong, Yang Dian called the Think Tank again to discuss some details and made some minor adjustments to the territory map.

It took another three days to re-deduce the territory map after the adjustments were finished.

On this day, after confirming that he was fully prepared, Yang Dian finally stood up and looked around.

Perhaps knowing that this Opportunity could end at any time, or perhaps to leave a good impression on him.

Therefore, everyone arranged to Cultivate in the spatial maze seemed very diligent.

They Cultivated except for meals, only rested for a while when they really couldn't Cultivate anymore, and only went outside to solve personal problems through the spatial key Yang Dian gave them when they really couldn't hold it in.

After 18 days, everyone's gains were considerable.

In short, it was equivalent to them equally sharing a heaven and earth treasure.

There were even two lucky ones who Awakened their abilities on the spot.

One Awakened a Fire-elemental ability, and the other also Awakened a Fire-elemental ability.

It was just that the intensity of the Awakened abilities was different.

One could only play with fireballs, while the other could elementalize his entire body, possessing City-Level potential.

Moreover, Yang Dian clearly remembered that when those two Awakened their abilities, there happened to be fire-attribute Innate Spiritual Qi attached to their heart positions.

'So, the abilities Awakened by Awakened are indeed related to Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi?'

'Perhaps we can differentiate the Innate Spiritual Qi.'

'Attribute-less belongs to attribute-less, used to enhance martial Dao strength.'

'Familiar Innate Spiritual Qi should be categorized and placed in different spaces, maintaining their Innate characteristics while accumulating their quantity as much as possible.'

'They will be the Awakening pools in the future, which can assist people in Awakening corresponding talent abilities...'

He spent a little more time re-deducing the refining method of the territory map.

After confirming that it did not conflict with his previous idea and that the idea could be realized, Yang Dian unhesitatingly reached out his right hand to the jade-colored heart.

All was ready, the east wind had arrived.

Next, it was time for the territory map to be born.

Yang Lele, who had just assumed the posture of a fledgling eagle, hadn't even had time to activate her breathing technique when she saw the surrounding world begin to blur and distort.

After a few blinks, as tall buildings reappeared in her sight, she subconsciously stopped her movements.

"Eh? Is the Cultivation over?"

Yang Dian walked over to Yang Lele, wanting to reach out and mess up her hair.

But seeing the other people around, he still suppressed this thought.

The little girl had also grown up, and doing this in public was somewhat inappropriate.

So he just nodded:

"It's over."

As he spoke, he reached out and hooked his finger.

The spatial keys he had distributed, made from silver star core fragments for everyone to use to enter and exit the spatial maze, were all retracted by him.

Then he looked at Yang Lele and said:

"You've been out for so many days, Mom and Dad must miss you. Go home quickly."

Yang Lele blinked:

"Brother, aren't you taking me home?"

Yang Dian stretched, loosening his body which hadn't moved much for over twenty days.

"Your brother, I, am going to do something big."

Yang Lele nodded obediently:

"Oh~ I see."

"Be careful."

Seeing her like this, Yang Dian still couldn't control his right hand and stroked her head twice, just like petting the Little Black Cat.

"Don't worry, this big event has no danger, only benefits."

Yang Lele shook her head twice to get rid of Yang Dian's big hand, then asked curiously:

"What benefits?"

Yang Dian flicked her forehead:

"If I tell you, there will be no surprise. Anyway, you'll know soon."

With that, Yang Dian rose from the ground and flew towards the inland direction.

Chinese people value auspiciousness in their endeavors.

Yang Dian was no exception.

Although he had confirmed through multiple deductions that there would be no problems with his refining of the territory map, he still wanted to seek good fortune.

For example, waiting for an auspicious day and time to begin refining on Jade Emperor Peak... The second year of the Expedition Calendar, July 17th.

All matters were auspicious, with no taboos.

At noon that day, Yang Dian, Lei Ming, Old Daoist Qingfeng, and others arrived together at the foot of Mount Tai.

They entered through the South Heaven Gate, ascended the Heaven Street, and reached Jade Emperor Peak.

The Old Daoist looked at the wisps of green smoke rising from the incense burner and couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"I wonder if there are really immortals and gods in this world."

Yang Dian reached out and summoned the Earth's star core from the Void Realm, saying rather casually:

"Who knows?"

"But if we were placed in ancient times, the title of a living immortal or god would definitely be undeniable."

After replying to the Old Daoist, Yang Dian reached out and tapped the star core.

The next moment, the Spark of Will stored within the star core began to burn fiercely.

Countless records that only existed in historical books emerged in the blazing fire.

From Sui Ren's discovery of fire, to Shen Nong's tasting of a hundred herbs, to Fuxi's deduction of the Eight Trigrams... There was Huangdi's establishment of human culture, Cangjie's creation of characters, and Leizu's cultivation of silkworms... Then the Five Emperors ruled, Yu the Great controlled the floods and established the family system, and the Dynasty was formed.

Xia Jie, the Black Bird descended to Shang... Shang fell, the world belonged to Zhou... Zhou weakened, feudal lords rose, a hundred schools of thought contended, King Qin, leveraging the remnants of six generations, unified the six states and declared himself the First Emperor.

The Emperor died, Qin lost its deer.

The people rebelled, and with a cry of "Are kings, nobles, and generals born with a destiny?" in Dazexiang, thereafter madmen sharpened their knives by night, and the Emperor Star swayed as Yinghuo rose high.

Qin fell, Chu and Han contended, and Han gained the world, divided East and West.

At the end of Han, Zhang Jiao of the Yellow Turban Dao scattered beans to form soldiers, digging up the Foundation of the Han Dynasty... Then the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasties, the Southern and Northern Dynasties... Emperor Wen of Sui usurped Zhou, established Sui, and destroyed Chen, ending three hundred years of chaos in the world and rebuilding the Empire.

After two generations, Sui fell, returning to Tang.

Emperor Taizong of Tang led his troops into Xuanwu Gate, laying the Foundation for the flourishing Tang Dynasty and ushering in the Zhenguan Era.

Later, Tang fell due to its strength, dividing into ten states... Then to Emperor Taizu of Song's Chenqiao mutiny, establishing the capital in Dongjing... Time and space seemed to be reshaped from then on.

The vast five thousand years of China, with the will of 1.4 billion Chinese people as the guide and fragments of the planet's core as the carrier, were all displayed one by one before Yang Dian.

Countless heroes seemed to walk out of history, laughing as they wrote their legends in the blazing Spark.

Until the mountains and rivers shattered, China sank, and a clear trumpet call pierced through the clouds, echoing across the land of China.

Those Cultivating martial Dao, those sitting in meditation and practicing visualization, those rooted in research laboratories, those going to school and work, those lying flat and doing nothing... 1.4 billion Chinese people all felt something in their hearts, looking up at the sky.

Above the firmament, an invisible mighty force tore apart the sky-filling clouds, revealing the azure sky behind them.

Then endless light emerged from the mountains and rivers, dyeing the azure sky with a blend of gold and red.

Finally, the light converged, forming a scroll that covered the sky and the sun, equivalent to the territory of China.

Perhaps because the scroll had just appeared, it was blank.

Only the red flag, formed by the interweaving of gold and red, fluttered in the wind.

The moment they saw that red flag, a surge of indignation, of sacrificing oneself for the nation and facing death as if returning home, surged in countless hearts.

That was the undying faith of countless martyrs spilled upon the land of China.

It was their unyielding will to return wrapped in horsehide if it meant protecting their home and country.

It was the self-improvement and pride etched into the bones of countless Chinese people.

On Jade Emperor Peak, Yang Dian looked up at the scroll in the sky, which was identical to the one before him except for its size, and took a deep breath.

"Creating the territory map under everyone's witness?"

"That's not bad either."

With that, Five Elements Runes appeared on his fingertips, and he took out hundreds of five-colored beads, placing them within the scroll.

"The first step, engraving mountains and seas..."
