Now that the direction has been determined, everyone already has a plan for how to implement it.

"We intend to shatter this grotto-heaven and use it as a vessel to hold the 'plate'!" Huang Shigong declared with grand ambition. He stroked his pale beard and hair, his brows trembling. "This grotto-heaven was created by many of Taoist School Daoist sages in the past. It hangs above the present world, independent of it, perfectly fitting—"

"This is also why we invited the Great Sage Wuzhiqi to come."

If the grotto is to contain the 'plate', then the grotto must be stirred up and broken, and then everyone must pour their own knowledge of the mysteries into it, and then sort and reorganize it.

Such power is not possessed by the many disciples of the Hundred Schools present. Some of them have reached the Immortal Realm, while others have not. To break through this level of grotto-heaven, one would need a power essence at least equivalent to that of a god in other places.

The counterparts of the God of the Dao are the Immortal Venerable of the Immortal Path, the Sage of Confucianism, the King of Heaven of the Divine Path, and the Great Sage of Demons and Monsters.

"There's no need for me to come now." Wuzhiqi shrugged and smiled. She looked at Rovi: "With Emperor Dong Hua here, how could he possibly stop me?"

"Help someone to the very end... How about it, Master Donghua?"

"You're actually willing to push out such a great opportunity?" Rovi was somewhat surprised. Shattering a grotto-heaven and rebuilding it was like recreating the chaotic world. This was indeed a rare opportunity.

Although blessed lands and Grotto-Heaven blessed land operate on a similar mechanism to Reality Marble, the differences between different Reality Marble are inherently vast.

Rovi could see that the Grotto-Heaven blessed land before him was almost complete.

It can be described as a miniature 'world'.

"I need to push it out so I can ask you for help later!" Wuzhiqi blinked, appearing quite matter-of-fact.

She said, "How could I possibly ask you to suppress my Heart Monkey?"

Wuzhiqi was still hoping to escape his predicament as soon as possible!

Okay, now that we've gotten to the point, Rovi can't refuse, and he certainly won't.

"Please, Master, lend a hand!" Huang Shigong bowed deeply.

The Mohist Grandmaster knelt on one knee. "Please, Master, make your move!"

Confucianism scholars, Legalist students, School of Military strategists... all paid homage to Rovi at the same time.

So Rovi sat down behind the table, flicked his sleeve, and uttered only one word. "Agreed."

Just one word, yet it resonated like the sound of a bell, once again stirring the 'chaos' in Rovi's mind.

To break something, you must first twist it.

Thus, the invisible murmurs echoed and reverberated throughout the entire Grotto-Heaven blessed land. Fortunately, they were not directed at any particular person or being, so everyone could only hear the faint echoes.

Only Wuzhiqi's face slightly puffed up, as if he was suppressing a laugh, and his full chest trembled incessantly...

The sky was shrouded in darkness, and the earth and mountains appeared as if they were crumpled paper, revealing layers of wrinkles. The surroundings became extremely dark in an instant, except for the place where one stood, where a patch of light still appeared.

Rovi once again struck a chord in his mind, dispelling the chaos.

The 'chaos' originating from the evil god shook even more violently in his mind.

Twisting, crushing, and layering folds that deepen and intensify, he finally transformed the entire landscape into a chaotic jumble of light and shadow.

The sky collapsed and completely meshed with the ground.

The world appears as a chaotic and distorted mess, as if returning to its original state.

"I knew you were more suitable than me!" Wuzhiqi exclaimed, watching the scene unfold. "If it were me, I could only use the Huai River to crash down and shatter this place... but I couldn't do that, I couldn't do it like that..."

"Let heaven and earth return to chaos."

"Chaos is like a chicken egg," Huang Shigong murmured unconsciously.

Jing Ke was still drinking, while Yi stared wide-eyed at the scene.

Chaos is like a chicken egg.

And Pangu—

Born within it!

A deafening roar erupted in an instant, the flames of the burning furnace surged forth, and Rovi's figure vanished in an instant, replaced by a massive shadow.

Like a sun burning fiercely, its brilliant flames displaying flowing light.

That was the light from the core of the furnace.

It is another manifestation of Rovi – he has revealed his own Mechanical Body.

The Divine Land was in a state of shock, as were the philosophers of all schools of thought. Wuzhiqi also slightly opened his mouth... his eyes instantly shone brightly.

I've never seen it before.

She just thought... very pretty.

"Even Chi You, who was known for his bronze head and iron bones, didn't possess this level of prowess!" Wuzhiqi couldn't help but compare.

At that moment, the steel-forged Machine God unfolded its cold, hard iron wings.

He held up the 'upper' of chaos with both hands and stepped on the 'lower' of chaos with both feet.

A crimson storm, manifesting the power of the primordial stars and the ' Enuma Elish, erupted from beneath his feet, cleaving through the chaos.

Primordial lava surges from the ' Primordial Highest Heaven ' appeared on his hands and knees.

Both hands and both feet contain supreme power.

He used this to divide the space above and below, creating a sliver of light in this place that had been distorted and collapsed.

The light appeared, but it was like an abyss.

It draws upon all the "mysteries" of the Hundred Schools of Thought.

It was rippling around the machine god like a whirlpool, but its core seemed empty, with only a simple word "Yi".

Tangible and intangible, the single word is the true meaning.

Block, block, block—

The sound of bells echoed across the wilderness, resounding through the chaos.

A sense of distortion spread in all directions.

Upon seeing the Steel Giant, the philosophers of the Hundred Schools of Thought were filled with a sense of awe.

This moment felt like witnessing the legendary creation of the world.

No, or so it is said.

This is the very beginning of creation!

"One day, the Emperor Dong Hua entered the primordial chaos and saw the world as a vast emptiness. The Emperor frowned, unleashed the Steel Giant, whose immeasurable size supported the heavens and the earth, and thus heaven and earth were formed."

' The Emperor Dong Hua's Scripture of World Creation ''

In the present world, in the suburbs of Ji, the capital of Yan State, amidst the hazy smoke, one after another, figures appeared out of nowhere.

These are the people who were just in the Grotto-Heaven blessed land.

For example, the Grotto-Heaven blessed land was shattered and turned into a 'plate', which was suspended above the present world, and everyone was able to break free from it.

Rovi, with his feet firmly on the ground, flicked his sleeve to support the half-asleep Yu Ji beside him, feeling somewhat helpless.

"It seems the Emperor still has things to do..." Wuzhiqi glanced at Yu Ji and made a strange sound.

She tossed her long, pale hair. "Alright, then I'll bother you again next time."

"Hmm." Rovi nodded, glancing at the crowd standing around him. "Then see you next time."

"Respectfully seeing off the Emperor!"

"Respectfully seeing off the Emperor!"

"..."

The disciples of all schools bowed their heads at the same time, and Rovi turned and left.

Above the sky, a faint light shone.

The falling leaves reflected the ethereal figure as it departed.

"It seems that we will need another battle for the orthodox tradition!" Huang Shigong stroked his beard and chuckled.

The Mohist Grandmaster frowned. "Our Mohist school does not engage in pointless disputes."

"We still need to determine the true lineage of Chinese civilization." The Confucianism successor flicked his sleeve, withdrawing his gaze from the faint light of the sky.

That light is the manifestation of the 'disc' in the present world, like stars illuminating the vast Divine Land of Huaxia.

It is the source of 'thought' and the foundation for connecting with Human Order.

The mysteries of the Hundred Schools of Thought are embedded within it, surrounding the 'Yi' (易), nested layer upon layer, existing stably.

As a result, the Hundred Schools of Thought stabilized their mystique, preventing it from being lost. In fact, as the 'plate' continued to stabilize and expand, their power actually increased over time.

However, the 'pan' is based on 'ideology'. The wider the range of 'ideology' covering the Divine Land, the stronger the 'pan' becomes.

However, the so-called ' Thought Sorcery ' that are based on thought also determine who will dominate the mainstream thought in the world, who will become the leading 'school', and who will be able to pass on their school of thought to future generations.

"To educate and enlighten the people is the duty of Confucianism."

"Governing by non-action leads to great order in the world."

"Only by basing everything on the law can the world truly serve the public good."

"..."

The Spring and Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period periods, a time of great prosperity and luxury, have passed for four years, but the history of the vast Nine Provinces of Huaxia has only just begun.

The crowd dispersed, and Jing Ke swayed slightly and let out a burp.

From beginning to end, she seemed to have done nothing, only observing for a moment, and when the 'plate' was formed, she threw out a wisp of her own 'sword intent'.

However, at that moment, her mind suddenly cleared...

Because someone has arrived.

Or rather, someone finally dared to come out from the corner.

"Jing Ke..."

"Yan Dan, as a friend, I have already given you a chance, but you yourself dared not—" Jing Ke sighed and looked at his friend, the Crown Prince of Yan State, Dan.

Yan Dan gave a bitter smile.

He had asked Jing Ke to bring him to this place, a place he shouldn't have known about, much less set foot in, but only hoped to find a wise man to help him resist Qin.

The Qin general marched eastward, eyeing the world with predatory intent. Other states were weak, but how could they willingly surrender and perish?

As the crown prince of Yan State, Yan Dan was even more unwilling to see Yan State destroyed by Qin.

Although he couldn't see the scene of creation, Yan Dan was still frightened by the sudden appearance of the aura of creation.

He... became timid.

"I have done my best. If you had truly spoken, that person might have agreed, but it is too late now." Jing Ke sighed, turned and left. "Goodbye, friend."

Yan Dan was stunned for a moment, and after a long while, she murmured, "It was me... who disappointed you, Jing Ke."

He was indeed timid, but... he didn't want to give up!

Meanwhile, outside the city of Yan State, a hazy, shimmering light enveloped the world after the rain. After leaving Yan, Luo Rovi returned to the city and found an inn to rest.

It wasn't that he was resting; it was that Yu Ji was drunk and needed to rest.

During his walk, he also reflected deeply on what he had just gained.

But as the one who inspired the 'Thoughts and Paths' and the direct creator of the 'Plate', Rovi gained far more benefits than that group of people.

As the creator of heaven and earth, he directly gained the recognition of 'Pan' as his master, and was honored as 'Gu', which means ' Pangu '.

That which takes thought as its core, the 'Tao,' is even more likely to be accepted by him.

However, compared to these things, Rovi was more concerned about the 'chaos' in his mind.

He used it as a tool for 'creating the world', which was just a sudden idea, and he also hoped to make it stronger and more powerful through this means, and gradually get closer to his desired goal.

At this moment, although it did not grow as large as Rovi had hoped, it had clearly become more 'solid'.

Solid and substantial.

This is a feeling that is almost a qualitative change.

Rovi would certainly be very satisfied—he would be even more satisfied if he hadn't been disturbed while summarizing.

"This sake is delicious... I'll have some more..."

Come on—

"So annoying, so annoying, it just keeps going on and on."

Listening to the girl's constant panting beside him, Rovi never expected that Yu Ji would look so bad after getting drunk.

He took her into the tavern, settled her on the bed, and was just about to get up when Yu Ji suddenly grabbed her collar and pulled her down.

They immediately huddled together.

In the quiet hotel room, the sound of breathing rose and fell. A light gauze curtain hung on the bed. Rovi glanced sideways at Yu Ji, who was clinging to him like an octopus, and felt somewhat helpless.

She embraced him with both arms, her full and graceful figure almost pressed against his.

Yu Ji directly pinned Rovi Wei down.

Facing her was a pretty and delicate face, flushed with wine, revealing a tender and fragile beauty that she never usually showed.

Just as Rovi was about to leave, he noticed that Yu Ji had suddenly placed her head on his neck.

"No... huff... leave me..."

"Don't be alone..."

"You brought me out here, you have to take responsibility."

Although he was drunk and his pronunciation was unclear, his logic was surprisingly clear.

It was Rovi who brought her out of the Fusang Tree.

Therefore, Rovi must take responsibility.

Therefore, Rovi cannot leave her.

so...

"I want to be with you, forever!"

Yu Ji smiled.

An easy smile, and also an extremely pure smile, without the slightest pretense.

Rovi was silent for a moment, then sighed helplessly and gently rubbed the girl who was gradually falling asleep.

Perhaps, he's just a child.

"..."

"Is this the place?" Outside the inn, a carriage slowly pulled up on a street in the capital of Yan State. Someone opened their eyes, and a hint of eager anticipation and surprise appeared on their pretty face. "I can feel it! The Emperor's aura! The Emperor, this is it!"

The maidservant beside Xu Fu wanted to say, "Miss, your nose is really sharp," but she didn't say it out loud, "Yes, Miss."

"According to the clues in the King of Qin, that person finally appeared in the capital of Yan State."

When the Emperor entered the mortal world, he never concealed his whereabouts.

Therefore, anyone who knows of its existence and is interested in it can find out about Rovi's's existence with just a little investigation.

Of course, this is only a possibility. Rovi did not hide his whereabouts when he entered the world, but he also did not show off his existence in an overly high-profile manner.

Finding him is like searching for a somewhat special person in the land of the gods.

A sufficient intelligence network is needed.

The Qin state met this requirement, and other states also possessed such power.

So far, apart from the reckless Jing Ke, no one has dared to directly disturb Rovi.

And also the young girl Xu Fu who arrived at this very moment.

"Walk--"

Xu Fu jumped down from his seat with a look of excitement on his face, causing the carriage to tilt and sway slightly.

"Miss, mind your manners!" the maid couldn't help but remind her, only to find that Xu Fu had already disappeared.

She stood there stunned for a long time before finally letting out a sigh.

Why is it that even though she usually acts very timid and shy, she can always be so fearless when she encounters something or someone she likes?

The young maid shook her head, glancing at another letter in her hand...

That was her 'informant' here, but she hasn't remembered to report it to Xu Fu yet.

"He is suspected to be a disciple of the Emperor Dong Hua, who was wandering around here and entered an inn with a woman."

The maid silently folded up the attributes and placed them aside.

Pretend it was never opened, pretend you know nothing about it.

I hope he's alright.
