Currency and Units of Measurement

By utilizing these avatars capable of real-time information transmission, he not only solved the issue where outsiders compiling books could not enhance the Character Creation Diagram and the Writing Brush of Creation, but he also incidentally resolved the problem of how the compilers could communicate with one another.

With the avatars of these two treasures in hand, as long as the compilers were willing, they could communicate anytime and anywhere, no matter where they were located.

"It is a pity that the Character Creation Diagram and the Writing Brush of Creation are not yet powerful enough. Not only are the derived avatars limited to about a hundred, but they can only transmit text and images, unable to facilitate voice communication."

"With so few avatars, they are truly inadequate for any major task."

Thinking of the new capabilities of the two treasures, Jiang Yuan sighed deeply. Only at this moment could the Character Creation Diagram and the Writing Brush of Creation be said to have barely displayed a fraction of the potential of the Earth Emperor's Book and the Human Emperor's Brush.

Shouldn't the true Earth Emperor's Book and Human Emperor's Brush be possessed by everyone, allowing all living beings in the Primordial World to transcend the limitations of space and communicate in real-time through them?

And in the process, the content of their exchanges would all be recorded by the Earth Emperor's Book and the Human Emperor's Brush.

Although most of this content would be meaningless, a small portion would still carry precious knowledge. This knowledge would be the resources for the Earth Emperor's Book and the Human Emperor's Brush to grow stronger.

Whether the Earth Emperor's Book and the Human Emperor's Brush could eventually ascend to become Innate Supreme Treasures might very well depend on this.

If everyone in the Primordial World possessed one, they could then leverage the wisdom of the masses to undergo the final transformation, ascending from top-tier Post-Heaven Merit Supreme Treasures to Innate Supreme Treasures.

"This is also a path. Without a doubt, the emergence of real-time communication tools narrows the distance between people, thereby promoting the development of the era."

Jiang Yuan felt his idea had great potential; even if he ultimately failed to make the Human Emperor's Brush and the Earth Emperor's Book ascend to Innate Supreme Treasures, he would still reap a massive amount of merit.

Promoting the development of an era is also a meritorious deed. Therefore, as long as this was accomplished, there was no question of loss—it was merely a matter of whether the gain would be large or small.

So, how could he accomplish this and ensure everyone in the Primordial World possessed a Writing Brush of Creation and a Character Creation Diagram? The answer was simple: continue to upgrade these two magical treasures.

The fact that the derived avatars were insufficient was simply because these two treasures were not yet strong enough. If they were to ascend to become top-grade Post-Heaven Merit Spirit Treasures, or even Post-Heaven Merit Supreme Treasures, then the number of avatars they could derive would not be limited to a mere hundred; ten thousand, or even a hundred million, would not be enough to count them.

In short, the stronger the Character Creation Diagram and the Writing Brush of Creation became, the more avatars they could derive. At the same time, their capabilities would also increase.

Currently, the two could only transmit text and images, but as they continued to ascend, they would be able to transmit much more. Voice, video, and even the individuals themselves could be transported.

"Continue to upgrade them? As it happens, I still have a portion of merit on hand that can assist them."

Thinking of this beautiful prospect, Jiang Yuan could hardly wait. He then reached out and grabbed the Profound Yellow Grain that had just matured outside.

The so-called meritorious deed was naturally to establish a currency for the Primordial World and perfect a system of measurement, both of which were related to the Profound Yellow Grain.

As for what this had to do with the Writing Brush of Creation and the Character Creation Diagram, once the currency was established and the measurement system perfected, wouldn't it need to be recorded?

And recording this event would, to a greater or lesser extent, enhance the power of the two treasures. Do not forget that the History Book was also among them; how could they miss such a historic moment?

"Ten thousand grains of Profound Yellow Grain can refine one wisp of Profound Yellow Qi. Ten thousand wisps of Profound Yellow Qi can refine one drop of Profound Yellow Liquid."

"Ten thousand drops of Profound Yellow Liquid can refine one piece of Profound Yellow Crystal. Ten thousand pieces of Profound Yellow Crystal can refine one Profound Yellow Pill."

"Profound Yellow Grain, Profound Yellow Qi, Profound Yellow Liquid, Profound Yellow Crystal, and Profound Yellow Pill—these five, from lowest to highest, shall be the five currencies of the future Primordial World."

Looking at the small mountain of Profound Yellow Grain before him, Jiang Yuan spoke with a solemn expression. As his words fell, a mysterious power descended from the void, acting upon the Profound Yellow Grain.

The next moment, a miraculous change occurred. The Profound Yellow Grain began to decompose, first turning into wisps of Profound Yellow Qi, then rapidly condensing from gas into liquid, then from liquid into crystal, and finally transforming into a Profound Yellow-colored divine pill.

This was the Profound Yellow Pill, the highest-valued currency among the five Jiang Yuan had established. The amount of power it contained was such that, once fully refined, it could allow an ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal to increase their cultivation by one year, and an ordinary Primordial Unity Golden Immortal to increase theirs by ten thousand years.

That was correct; it was that exaggerated. One year of cultivation for an ordinary Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal was equivalent to ten thousand years for an ordinary Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, a hundred million years for a Heavenly Immortal, and hundreds of millions of years for a cultivator below the Heavenly Immortal realm.

"The Profound Yellow Grain is prepared for the Pre-Heaven Realm, the Profound Yellow Qi for the Void Refinement Realm, the Profound Yellow Liquid for the Heavenly Immortal, the Profound Yellow Crystal for the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal, and the Profound Yellow Pill for the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal."

"Five types of currency corresponding to five realms—it is just right."

Jiang Yuan was very satisfied with the currency system he had established, which covered almost all living beings in the Primordial World. In fact, above the Profound Yellow Pill, there was the even more powerful Profound Yellow Origin Qi, which was prepared for the Quasi-Saint Realm.

However, Jiang Yuan's Profound Yellow Grain was limited, and being able to condense a single Profound Yellow Pill was already the result of the Heavenly Dao's blessing; he truly lacked the ability to condense the Profound Yellow Origin Qi, so he did not mention it.

"Since the Profound Yellow Grain is so important, the measurement system must naturally be related to it as well."

"This is the first Sui of grain born in the Primordial World; its weight shall be the beginning of the Primordial World's measurement system, the standard for everything."

After establishing the currency, Jiang Yuan took out the first Sui of grain from the Primordial World that he had kept, and solemnly enshrined it in the Sacred Temple.

From then on, its mass would be the basic unit of mass for the Primordial World, referred to as one Sui. And one Sui was composed of ten thousand grains. Therefore, one Sui was also equal to ten thousand grains.

Above the Sui was the Yuan—Jiang Yuan's Yuan—where ten thousand Sui equaled one Yuan.

These three were the units of measurement Jiang Yuan established for the Primordial World. The first two were fine, but the last one was purely his own private addition. Naming it after himself would undoubtedly increase his fame, thereby gathering more destiny.

Although fame was intangible, it could gather destiny. Therefore, the strong often possessed great fame; this was not them deliberately showing off, but a way to gather destiny.

Jiang Yuan's strength was lacking, and he could not rely on his power to gain fame, so he had to open up a different path, using his achievements to gain prestige.

"The system has been established; the next step is to find a way to promote it and let more people accept it."

As Jiang Yuan recorded the events that had just transpired onto the Character Creation Diagram, he pondered silently.

It was not enough to simply establish the currency and units of measurement; they had to be promoted and accepted by the world so that he could reap merit and destiny.

Otherwise, if no one accepted them, how would his efforts be any different from self-amusement? Expecting merit on top of that would be a joke.

However, promotion was not an easy task; he had to think carefully about how to proceed. But he soon realized that to facilitate this, the key did not lie in his own thoughts, but in whether the Profound Yellow Grain could be accepted by the world.
