For some time afterward.

Wukong's life became incredibly regular.

During the day, he cultivated in his room.

Or continued optimizing his meditation technique.

In the afternoon, he read.

While flipping through this world's novels.

He also pondered the framework for his new book.

At night, he used medicinal baths to temper his body.

Combined with the Whale Rubber and medicinal herbs he had bought, his physical strength increased day by day.

Aside from these daily cultivation and studies.

Wukong also devoted part of his energy.

To devising an outrageously powerful Soul Skill.

Seventy-Two Transformations!

Thanks to devouring the origin of the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

The origin of his bloodline had already recorded the Simulation talent of the Ice Silkworm race.

This gave Wukong an excellent foundation.

With that foundation, he had a direction for developing a new Soul Skill.

The Innate Spirit Stone could inherently be carved into all things and transformed into all things.

This trait was highly compatible with the Simulation talent.

But Wukong did not want mere ordinary Simulation.

The Seventy-Two Transformations he envisioned had to be even more powerful.

After transforming, he would be able to use the abilities and skills of whatever he transformed into.

Oscar's Mirror Image ability in the original work had a similar effect.

But Oscar's restrictions were too great. It required the other party's blood to work, and it could only display part of its power.

The Seventy-Two Transformations Wukong wanted was the ultimate evolved version of Simulation combined with Mirror Image.

And it would not have so many restrictive conditions.

As long as he saw through someone's origin or absorbed their essence blood, he could perfectly replicate their form and innate abilities.

Once this Soul Skill was created, it would undoubtedly be immensely powerful.

And precisely because it was so powerful, it was even more difficult to develop.

Fortunately, Wukong had plenty of experience creating his own Soul Skills.

So although it was difficult, he was still making progress.

A month later.

One afternoon.

Sunlight spilled through the window onto the desk.

Wukong stretched lazily and closed the novel in his hand.

He had already read nearly a hundred novels.

The literary standards of this world were truly hard to describe.

They were all clichéd plots about romance, love, and face-slapping.

But this only boosted Wukong's confidence.

The idea for his new book had also mostly taken shape.

He picked up a fountain pen and wrote several large words on the manuscript paper.

—"God Realm Legend"

For his first book, he did not plan to write directly about the Great Sage.

He planned to start with the Primordial World.

After all, the Primordial World was the foundation of the mythological system.

He would first use the Primordial World's grand worldview to break into the mainstream and attract a huge number of readers.

Then he would write Investiture of the Gods and drive the plot to its climax.

Finally, he would write about the Great Sage and make the power of faith erupt completely.

However, to suit this world, he had to localize the novel.

So the novel could not be called Primordial World.

It had to be called "God Realm Legend."

The important characters in the Primordial World also needed to be localized.

They would all be changed into gods from Douluo.

That would better suit the Douluo market and give readers a stronger sense of immersion.

After all, on the Douluo Plane, people held immense yearning and reverence for gods.

Yet they also worried about desecrating the gods, so no one dared casually imagine stories about them.

But Wukong dared.

Not only did he dare to imagine it, he also dared to write it!

The more forbidden something was, the more attractive it became.

Especially on the Douluo Plane, which already possessed a supernatural system.

People's curiosity about gods was endless.

Wukong pondered for a moment.

Then began writing the opening.

"The world was originally Chaos. Chaos was eternal. There was no heaven and earth, no living beings, no good or evil, beauty or ugliness, no grudges or entanglements, no beginning and no end. It was complete."

"At some unknown time, the boundless spiritual energy nurtured within this Chaos, amid endless transformations, also gave birth to three thousand living beings."

"These living beings were born from transformation. Each possessed its own nature, yet none knew the will of heaven."

"These three thousand living beings were also called the Three Thousand Chaos Gods and Demons. Their duty was to represent the Three Thousand Great Dao Laws."

"The so-called three thousand was not an exact number, but a figurative term expressing an infinite quantity that encompassed all things."

After writing that passage, Wukong nodded in satisfaction.

The opening's grandeur was instantly maxed out.

Where would readers of Douluo Continent have ever seen such a magnificent setting?

It would definitely leave them utterly stunned.

Wukong continued writing, laying out the framework and outline.

"Chaos Gods and Demons were all embodiments of Laws."

"Such as Pangu, creator of the Law of Strength; Hongjun, creator of the Law of Creation; Luohou, creator of the Law of Destruction; Yangmei, creator of the Law of Space; Taichu, creator of the Law of Time..."

At this point, Wukong paused.

He was considering whether to include Luohou, creator of the Law of Destruction.

After a brief moment of thought, Wukong decisively crossed out Luohou's name.

"Sorry, Brother Luohou."

"For Old Sun's grand plan of becoming a god, I can only wrong you by writing you out of the story."

Wukong erased Luohou's name and wrote another name on the paper.

"Demon Ape, creator of the Battle Law!"

He deliberately included the Demon Ape in order to give the Great Sage more scenes.

Later, he could introduce the war between Dao and Demons—the confrontation between Hongjun and the Demon Ape.

As long as readers accepted the Demon Ape's setting.

When he wrote about the Great Sage in the future, the power of faith and fortune would directly bless him.

That was called planning ahead.

Wukong's wrist moved swiftly, his writing pressing through the paper.

"When Pangu opened the heavens, the Three Thousand Chaos Gods and Demons came to stop him, using every possible method in an attempt to prevent Pangu from opening the heavens."

"Pangu swung the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe, cleaving time and space, shattering reincarnation, and breaking through everything with sheer strength, causing most of the Chaos Gods and Demons to perish."

"After the heavens were opened, Pangu transformed into the Primordial World. The corpses, Laws, and treasures of the Chaos Gods and Demons merged into the newly opened Primordial World, forming all things and the laws governing the world..."

Inside the inn room.

Only the rustling of the fountain pen scraping across paper could be heard.

Wukong was completely immersed in the thrill of creation.

He wanted to perfectly integrate Douluo Continent's cultivation system into Primordial World mythology.

"The Demon Ape of the Battle Law wished to prove the Dao through battle."

"Hongjun thus joined forces with Yangmei Daoist, Yin-Yang Daoist, Qiankun Daoist, and other innate great powers to besiege the Demon Ape."

"In the end, they successfully defeated the Demon Ape. The Demon Ape's origin split into four and scattered throughout the Primordial World, its whereabouts unknown."

"This battle established Hongjun's position as the helmsman of the Primordial World."

"After the battle, Hongjun successfully broke through his shackles. His cultivation reached the realm of God King, making him the first God King."

After writing this passage, Wukong stretched his arms.

He had deliberately removed the original Primordial World's Dragon-Phoenix Calamity.

That was, the great war among the three races: the Dragon Clan, Phoenix Clan, and Qilin Clan.

The reason was simple.

First, it was to speed up the story's pace and keep the plot from becoming drawn out.

Second, it was to conceal the existence of the Dragon God.

After all, the Dragon God truly existed in this world.

And the Silver Dragon King, whom the Dragon God had split into, was also his boss.

The Silver Dragon King already did not want the world or the God Realm to know of her existence.

If he still stubbornly wrote about the Ancestral Dragon, he would truly be tired of living.

Wukong did not want to invite trouble upon himself.

He continued writing the plot framework.

"After becoming a God King, Hongjun saw that all living beings had no path for cultivation. He opened Zixiao Palace in the Thirty-Three Heavens and delivered three sermons on the Great Dao."

"At the first sermon, he distributed Godhoods and established the cultivation system: becoming a god at level one hundred, God Official at level 110, Third-Level God at level 120, Second-Level God at level 130, First-Level God at level 140, and God King at level 150."

"At the second sermon, he taught the cultivation method of God Kings, analyzing the crucial points of cultivation from level 100 to level 150."

"After the third sermon, he accepted Kindness, Evil, Life, Destruction, and Asura as his personal disciples."

"And bestowed five strands of Primordial Purple Qi as the foundation for becoming God Kings."

"The three sermons systematically expounded upon the laws of tribulations and the responsibilities of gods."

"All the great powers of the Primordial World flocked to it. The three thousand guests of Zixiao Palace thus became the Primordial World's first batch of innate gods."

This way, the God Realm's power structure was clear.

Next came the explanation for the origins of martial souls and Soul Rings.

Just as Wukong was writing with great enthusiasm.

A knock sounded outside the door.
