"Young master, I've brought your dinner."
Wukong set down his brush and went to open the door.
The waiter entered carrying the dishes. When he saw papers scattered all over the room, he froze.
"Young master, are you writing a book?"
Wukong nodded and took the food, placing it at the corner of the table.
"I had nothing better to do, so I'm just writing a few stories."
Curiously, the waiter leaned closer to look at the words on the paper.
Wukong's handwriting danced across the page like dragons and phoenixes, brimming with force.
Though the waiter knew few characters, he could still tell that the writing was excellent.
"Young master, your handwriting is truly beautiful."
Wukong smiled but said nothing.
The waiter tactfully did not ask further and withdrew from the room.
Wukong hastily shoveled down a few bites, then tossed the remaining food to Cai Lin inside the Hundred Treasures Pouch.
He then returned to the table and picked up his brush again.
Once the ideas began flowing, there was no stopping them.
He had to strike while the iron was hot and write down all the settings that came next.
Night fell, and bright candlelight lit the guest room.
Wukong sat upright at the table, his brush racing over the paper with a soft scratching sound.
What he needed to write next was the process by which the Five Godkings attained the Dao.
This had to fit perfectly with Douluo Continent's existing system in order to give readers a powerful sense of immersion.
"The Goddess of Life received Primordial Purple Qi from Hongjun and comprehended the Way of Creation."
"She took Nine Heavens Breathing Soil and Three Lights Divine Water and, following the model of the Primordial Dao Body, created the Human Race."
"When the Human Race was born, boundless merit descended from the heavens."
"The Goddess of Life used this merit to become the first to enter the God King Realm."
"The Human Race was a race chosen by heaven and earth. They reproduced rapidly, but they were naturally weak and suffered terribly under the oppression of the Primordial World's demon beasts."
"When Kindness saw how weak the Human Race was, she felt pity for them."
"She pondered tirelessly and observed the principles of all things between heaven and earth, eventually creating the Martial Soul System."
"It allowed the Human Race to awaken martial souls and gain the foundation for cultivation."
"Through this merit of enlightenment, Kindness attained the God King Realm."
"When Destruction saw that the Human Race possessed martial souls but could not break through their own limits."
"He advocated destruction before renewal and created the Cruel Cultivation System."
"He taught the Human Race to hunt demon beasts and absorb their origin power, turning it into Soul Rings to break through their bottlenecks."
"Through this path of slaughter, Destruction attained the God King Realm."
"Asura governed slaughter and judgment. He saw that the Human Race had Soul Rings but did not know how to use them."
"So he turned his own combat insights into rules and created the Soul Skill System."
"It allowed the Human Race to unleash power capable of overturning mountains and seas."
"Through the establishment of these rules, Asura attained the God King Realm."
"Evil was elusive in his actions and blazed his own trail."
"He discovered that after demon beasts died, there was a tiny chance they would leave behind bones containing their origin."
"Evil perfected this idea and created the Soul Bone System, allowing the Human Race to gain additional powerful abilities."
"Through this ingenious path, Evil attained the God King Realm."
Looking at the words on the paper, Wukong could not help giving himself a thumbs-up.
This logic, this setting—it was flawless.
Soul Masters of Douluo Continent would definitely believe every word of it.
So their martial souls and Soul Rings had all been passed down by the Godkings.
That intense sense of immersion would definitely make it impossible for readers to put the book down.
Having finished writing about the Five Godkings' attainment of the Dao.
Wukong began to depict the Primordial World's two dominant powers.
The Witch Clan and the Demon Clan.
"The Witch Clan descended from Pangu and could naturally control the various elements of the Primordial World."
"The Witch Clan longed to become saints through strength like Father God Pangu, so they cultivated only their bodies and not their primordial spirits."
"The Witch Clan was led by the Twelve Ancestral Witches."
"The Twelve Ancestral Witches were formed from Pangu's essence blood tainted by the world's violent aura. They were the strongest beings in physical bodies."
"Every one of them possessed the realm of a First-Level God."
"When the twelve joined forces, they could form the Twelve Capitals Heavenly Gods Formation."
"This formation was the Primordial World's most ferocious formation. It condensed the Pangu True Body, and no one dared stand against its edge!"
"Within the Sun Star formed from Pangu's left eye, Di Jun was born wrapped in the supreme divine artifact Hetu Luoshu, while Taiyi was born wielding the supreme divine artifact Chaos Bell."
"Di Jun and Taiyi established the Demon Emperor Palace beyond the Thirty-Third Heaven."
"Di Jun called himself the Demon Emperor, while Taiyi called himself the Eastern Emperor. They ruled all demon clans and enjoyed unrivaled glory for a time."
"The Demon Clan possessed the Zhoutian Stars Formation, which rivaled the Witch Clan's Twelve Capitals Heavenly Gods Formation."
"The Witch Clan and Demon Clan were natural enemies. They fought for millions of years over supremacy in the Primordial World, leaving countless dead and wounded."
"In the end, the Five Godkings—Kindness, Evil, Life, Destruction, and Asura—personally stepped in to mediate."
"This eventually created a situation where the Demon Clan ruled the heavens and the Witch Clan ruled the earth, and the relationship between the two became somewhat calmer."
"But the peace did not last. To seize complete dominion over heaven and earth, the Demon Clan and Witch Clan began a life-and-death battle."
"Both sides unleashed their most powerful techniques, fighting until heaven collapsed, the earth split apart, and the sun and moon lost their light."
"The entire Primordial World could not withstand such terrifying power and was forcibly shattered into nine planes."
"In the end, the ultimate techniques of the Witch and Demon Clans completely spiraled out of control, destroying five planes."
"Only four planes survived: the Douluo Plane, Yangguang Plane, Five Elements Plane, and Vast Plane."
"Enraged by the madness of the Witch and Demon Clans, the Five Godkings acted to suppress the remnants of both clans."
"The Five Godkings stripped them of their right to rule and established the God Realm above the four great planes."
"From then on, the Five Godkings governed the four great planes and maintained the balance among the countless races of the Primordial World."
"..."
This plot perfectly explained the origins of Douluo Continent.
It also explained how the God Realm had been established.
The entire worldview had now come full circle.
Wukong put down his brush and rubbed his aching wrist.
The outline, framework, and background settings were all complete.
Next, he only needed to add flesh to the bones and write the specific storylines.
For the entire next month.
Aside from eating and cultivating when necessary, Wukong devoted almost all his time to writing.
He wrote furiously every day and, in just over a month, produced more than three hundred thousand words!
In an era without computers or typing, it was practically a miracle.
Moreover, during that time, he repeatedly revised the manuscript and refined its details.
He made every character's personality rich and vivid.
Only then did he completely finish his first book, "God Realm Legend."
Looking at the thick stack of manuscripts on the table.
Wukong let out a long breath.
"Finally done."
He picked up the manuscript and examined it carefully.
This book was no ordinary wish-fulfillment novel.
Some of its battle scenes, fighting methods, and cultivation insights had not been made up at random either.
They were based on his own understanding and insights into the use of power from when he had been a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
He had cleverly woven the life-and-death ordeal of tempering his body through Heavenly Tribulation, as well as the ultimate attribute applications of the Ice-Fire Twin Dragon Staff.
All of it had been integrated into the novel's battle descriptions.
The combat scenes and cultivation methods alone were beyond the ability of ordinary people to write.
Even a Titled Douluo would be deeply shocked upon reading them.
Wukong neatly arranged the manuscript and tied it with a red string.
He placed it inside the Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch at his waist.
"Now that the book is finished, it's time to find a publishing house."
Wukong pushed open the window and took a breath of fresh air.
After being cooped up in the room for a month, he felt as if his whole body were about to grow mold.
