During the month-long seclusion, the Human Emperor wrote dozens of books, each one possessing a power that could move heaven and earth.

Among them, there are more than a dozen that are the most famous:

The Human Emperor's Classic, The Human Emperor's Rites, The Shennong's Book of Shennong's Book of Medicine, The Fuxi's Classic of Celestial Phenomena, Mental Arithmetic, Qimen Dunjia, Xuanyuan Xuanyuan's Hunting, The Qiankun Geography, and so on!

The so-called "Human Emperor's Classic" refers to the Great Dao and principles that Ye Xuan wrote down when he became a saint some time ago.

Those Great Dao and truths incorporated many amazing ideas from later generations.

Ye Xuan even assimilated and integrated many contents from the Dao De Jing, Confucianism, Legalism, Daoism, Mohism, and so on, and then wrote this Human Emperor's Classic.

These ideas each have their own unique governing maxims, each a cornerstone of human civilization, each a golden rule, and each word even implicitly containing the Heavenly Dao.

In addition, Ye Xuan also incorporated many other legal codes, such as the Three Character Classic Di Zi Gui for Disciples. As soon as this Human Emperor's Classic was published, it was immediately hailed by all Human Clan as the number one extraordinary book in the world.

This book has become the foundation of cultural inheritance and the root of intellectual lineage.

With this book, the cultural heritage of the Human Clan will never be lost, and it will become increasingly rich, which will surely become the foundation for the inheritance of Yin Shang culture.

This book will surely influence future generations for hundreds of millions of years to come.

As it turns out, this was indeed the case, according to the Human Emperor's Classic.

Indeed, it has been passed down for countless eons, and even in the countless years to come, this book still has a profound influence on the Human Clan.

The "Human Emperor's Rites" is naturally a remarkable book.

Because this is a sacred book that teaches Human Clan etiquette.

It is mainly a fusion of many theories such as "making music based on profound principles" and "the Three Cardinal Guides and Five Constant Virtues," and also includes works such as "The Rites of Zhou," "The Book of Etiquette and Ceremonial," and "The Book of Rites."

Its main function is to the Human Clan etiquette and a sense of shame, to use moral norms to regulate people's behavior, and to mark a crucial dividing line that Human Clan to completely bid farewell to the barbaric era and enter the civilized era.

These theories were developed thousands of years ahead of their time, making them undeniably advanced for today's society.

Among them, the Three Cardinal Guides and Five Constant Virtues are the most important theories.

The ruler guides the subjects, the father guides the son, and the husband guides the wife.

The main purpose of these rituals was to further improve more primitive and barbaric ideas.

Ye Xuan proposed this idea in preparation for a complete overhaul of the slave system in the future.

When the mindset of the Human Clan undergoes a significant change, abolishing slavery will be much easier.

Of course, in order to further win the hearts of the people, the book also points out that the monarch should pay attention to the support of the people and consider their feelings, quoting Emperor Taizong of Tang of Tang's famous saying on governance, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it."

Furthermore, it also put forward moral standards for the Human Clan leader, the Human Emperor, with the concept that "the monarch dies for the country, Son of Heaven guards the nation's gates."

The Shennong's Book of Medicine is naturally a remarkable book that benefits all people.

To be honest, Ye Xuan didn't really know much about medical books, but he could only grit his teeth and organize them anyway, and eventually he still achieved something.

This book compiles all of Ye Xuan's knowledge, as well as some folk remedies.

Although Ye Xuan felt somewhat lacking in knowledge, he was absolutely astonishing in this era. The First Divine Sword Book naturally contained all-encompassing content.

It can absolutely be called a masterpiece that brings together all the best of the best.

This includes the Treatise on Cold Damage written by Zhang Zhongjing.

And highly influential Materia Medica for Dietary Therapy.

The Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica records a large number of drugs and their effects.

It records the Treatise on Warm-Heat Diseases pathogens, which first invade the upper body and then spread to the pericardium.

The Essential Prescriptions of the Golden Cabinet) contains detailed records of various difficult and complicated diseases.

The eight extraordinary meridians that record the body's meridians.

The Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion) records the miraculous techniques of acupuncture

In fact, most of the books Ye Xuan recorded were incomplete versions. After all, he wasn't a god, and he didn't know much about these magical books.

However, now that he has brought up much of the content and medical concepts from these books and adapted them into a comprehensive medical book, it is naturally astonishing.

In this extremely backward era where illness is practically a death sentence, it is truly a masterpiece.

With such a medical book, the medical practices of this era will likely experience a qualitative leap.

If the common people of the world could fully utilize this Shennong's Classic of Medicine, they would surely be able to achieve success in all aspects and from all angles.

The reason for using Shennong's name is naturally to give Shennong a lot of face.

May all living beings in the Primordial World remember Shennong's merits.

In addition, the other book, "Fuxi's Classic of Celestial Phenomena," is also a remarkable book.

And it was even named after Fuxi.

The main purpose of this book is to guide all living beings and people in observing the stars.

Although it may sound useless, the effects of this book are actually quite terrifying.

The book records many stars, including North Star, the Seven Stars of the Northern Dipper, the Greedy Wolf Star Red Luan Star.

It enabled people across the land to distinguish east from west and north from south, and the study of celestial phenomena made significant strategic contributions.

In addition, the book also records the key part where Ye Xuan thought for a long time and then observed the stars and then the weather.

By utilizing the changes in the stars, the four seasons were further divided into twenty-four solar terms.

The introduction of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms for the first time naturally amazed the common people.

This gave them a deeper understanding and analysis of the concept of time.

In addition, Shennong's cultivation of crops in the capital played an extremely important role, as there were very stable time constraints for when to cultivate, when to weed, when to harvest, and when to irrigate.

This book is also an ancient and extraordinary work for observing astronomy and geography.

The other book, "Mental Arithmetic," is much simpler.

This book was a piece of cake for Ye Xuan.

In later society, Ye Xuan was, after all, an outstanding young man who had received a good education.

Books like Mental Arithmetic are no problem for him at all.

It contains the most fundamental algorithm, the multiplication table.

With this multiplication table, the calculation and interpretation of all living beings in the Primordial World will surely achieve an extremely terrifying qualitative leap.

In addition, Mental Arithmetic also records a great many mathematical equations, function tables, and simple cause-and-effect relationships.

This book even raises numerous questions to test the common people.

The book "Xuanyuan's Hunting" is naturally an extremely important book for all living beings in the Primordial World.

It is a divine book named after Xuanyuan.

This book is actually quite simple.

It mainly records hundreds of methods for setting traps.

It also records the living habits of hundreds or even thousands of different wild animals.

Traps are selectively set based on the habits of these wild animals.

And how to capture ferocious beasts, hunting methods, slaughter techniques, etc.

In addition, there are various theories and knowledge about fishing.

In this day and age, hunting is arguably the most important source of food.

Now, with the release of this book Xuanyuan's Hunting, ...

For the Human Clan throughout the entire Primordial World, they will undoubtedly be sought after immediately.

When the civil and military officials of Chaoge saw these magical books for the first time, they were immediately amazed.

How could they have ever seen such a magical book?

To them, this was like Book of Heaven written in heaven.

If these books can truly become popular among the general public, they will undoubtedly create a tremendous impact.
