All along, Multiverse China's God-Making Plan had been just one step short of success. Although it had created many "gods," they were more like divine races such as Thor, merely possessing bloodlines far stronger than those of ordinary humans.
In essence, they were not true deities.
The gods China had always sought to create were more like conceptual deities, like the previous Nüwa.
Unfortunately, the God-Making Plan had hit a bottleneck. The gods it created possessed formidable power, far surpassing most people, yet they always lacked something.
After arriving in this world, Chen Mu gradually understood what had been missing.
It was a godhead.
A godhead was something like the Saintly Dao Fruit from before, the manifestation of a certain rule. However, its personhood was far inferior to that of a Dao Fruit. It did not even require the Heavenly Dao's intervention; the Deification List compiled by the Three Pure Ones alone possessed the ability to invest gods.
After Chen Mu had analyzed the Deification List, he had grasped its operating mechanisms. He was also capable of creating godheads and bestowing them upon others.
In fact, experts at the Great Luo level could manifest the world's rules, then use special methods to bestow them upon others. Only then could someone become a complete deity and wield a certain Power of Rules.
Even the original Jade Emperor possessed a similar ability.
The investiture of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals was actually much like deification, only relatively lower-level. The invested Heavenly Soldiers were weak and had no possibility of advancing further. Compared to deities who wielded a certain Power of Rules, they fell far short.
Previously, neither the Marvel World nor many other worlds possessed such "deities" with godheads who controlled a certain rule. There had therefore been no subjects for research, and
