Chapter 11 - When Dominion Falters

As Wang Long slowly hovered down to the ground in front of the wide cave, he gently flicked his hand, a faint ring of Dao rune fragments surrounding the cave.

"This will help them a bit"

Making sure that the dao runes wouldn't hurt any creature and that they aren't too powerful, Wang Long walked into the small circle just out of the cave.

The dao rune fragments creating a small dome barrier around the cave, making sure that no beasts could enter the cave. The barrier a faint, shimmering and translucent wall.

Slowly bringing up the system panel, Wang Long calmly navigated to the character creation panel. Slowly designing the male first, intricately designing their body.

Once the body was fully designed, Wang Long looked through the many options to choose from, quickly finding the Cultivation potentials.

To make sure that the humans didn't die too quickly, Wang Long had to make sure that they had potential. Also not wanting the humans to become like those of his last world.

As Wang Long looked at the spiritual roots available, he pondered which to choose before seeing the 5 elements spiritual roots, one of the lowest level spirit roots.

"This way, they won't have everything handed to them" He mumbled as he selected the root.

Making sure to give spirituality to the soon to be born human, Wang Long gave a simpler conscious to them, still far higher than beasts.

"Now what to name them... ah, I know just the name" mumbling and smiling lightly, thinking back to some myths from his previous world.

Double checking all of the parameters, Wang Long looked towards the price, finding it more expensive than expected.

Name: Adam

Price: 121

Race: Human

Cultivation: Mortal

Spiritual root: five elemental split root

Notes: Basic spirituality with problem solving and quick witted.

Wang Long nodding to himself calmly pressed the create button, light once more pouring from his core to slowly create a body.

While Adams body was being created, Wang Long gently cast a small suppression array around Adams body, suppressing his consciousness as he formed.

As Adams body formed, it slowly grew to a towering 6 foot 5 inches tall, being quite tall with powerful muscles hidden beneath his skin.

His skin pale from the lack of sun with a lean but still strong build.

A layer of short black hair coating his head while his face designed with a sharp jawline, a pair of deep blue eyes and a stern look painting his face, bringing it all together.

Despite his powerful and domineering look, his eyes stayed slightly glassy along with his beath being faint and long. A clear effect due to the mental suppression that he was under.

"Don't worry, you'll be up and awake shortly"

Once Adam fully formed, he once mote opened the screen, beginning to replicate Adams stats but designing a female body suited to this pre civilization world.

After managing to quickly generate a feign for her and finishing recreating Adams stats, the usual golden aura gently escaped.

Slowly coalescing into a woman of good hight, standing at 5 foot 10 inches tall. Unlike Aphrodite, this woman had a lithe qnd petite body and slightly rougher skin.

As the woman had to live in the wild, her skin was more rough, like a hard working maid. Her face still very delicate, especially compared to Adams.

As the woman slowly formed, Wang Long put her too under mental suppression to keep them both quiet and unable to disrupt his work.

"Oh yeah... clothes huh" He muttered, half forgetting about their clear lack of clothing as they both stood just outside the cave.

Both softly but also calmly, Wang Long slowly Waved his hand, a set of daoist robes slowly formed around both Adam and eve, being tighter compared to normal.

"The will last yoy a little while"

Wang Long mumbled as he carefully inspected them both to try find the spiritual roots within each of them.

Searching bottom to top, Wang Long looked on with his God's sense, observing but unable to find it. Until Wang Long reached the head, nestled just beside the Parietal Lobe sat a faint, near invisible ball of rock like consistency.

Just like the bone in the body, the spiritual root seemed to be surrounded by a dense and strong bone like substance. Within the ball, a smaller ball sat, looking like a small multicoloured pill ball.

The spiritual root was invisible to the naked eye and sat within an incorpeal and invisible space, unable to be touched.

Faintly feeling the aura around then, Wang Long was slightly surprised as he could feel no intake of Qi at all.

Curious, Wang Long slowly guided a speck of Qi to slowly penetrate Adams brain before being sent into his spiritual root with the help of the space dao.

Against his newfound expectations, the spiritual root devoured the Qi speck hungrily after penetrating the outer shell.

"Ah so that's it"

Wanting to confirm his hypothesis, Wang Long focused on Adam to look at his stats. Seeing a singular line that confirmed his theory.

Spiritual root: 5 elements spiritual root (Dormant)

With a deep sigh, Wang Long shook his head

"That won't do... but I'm not too aware of information about spiritual roots... I only know the basics from books"

Opening the panel, Wang Long sorted for books and spiritual roots without filtering prices, hoping that the book will be cheap. Looking at the top 2 options, Wang Long widened his eyes in surprise.

1.

Name: Comprehensive Spiritual root Guide

Price: 12,500 God Points

Description: The Comprehensive guide to Spiritual roots is a highly advanced book all about spiritual roots. This book contains everything about spiritual roots as well as techniques related to spiritual roots.

2.

Name: Guide to spiritual roots

Price: 100 God Points

Description: This guide is a basic and intermediate book about the basics of spiritual roots. Containing most things that one needs to know about spiritual roots, how to use them and recommendations.

Upon seeing the second option, Wang Long relaxed, letting out a sigh of relief to himself "Why is the first option so expensive?"

Wang Long grumbled before biting him bottom lip "But I do want it..." Right after saying that to himself, he shook his head and pressed the create button, not wanting to linger on it.

A small book materialising from the golden aura originating from his body. Without wasting time, Wang Long scanned the book with his God's sense.

Upon getting a good feel for everything inside the book, Wang Long silently pushed the book into a spacial distortion, warping the book to his pagoda.

"OK so I could either wait or help... probably best best help to make sure they survive" He muttered before pressing his index finger to both Adam and eve foreheads, slowly gathering some surrounding Qi and infusing it into their spiritual roots, attempting to awaken them.

After a short period of infusion, the bone like sphere surrounding the spiritual root cracking and crumbling away, his blood slowly taking away the fragments and scattering them throughout his blood.

As the blood slowly circulated, Qi filled fragments slowly nourished their bodies, enhancing them. Their muscles growing denser, their senses heightening and their spirituality increasing slightly.

Once done, Wang Long kept his fingers pointing at their foreheads.

"Now just to infuse some basic memories so they aren't totally useless"

Wang Long said as he slowly infused information such as fire starting, basic building, hunting and other similar things to help them survive but not providing a language to them.

"Done and Done" Gently snapping his fingers, before putting his hands behind his back calmly as both Adam and eve start coming to, gaining clarity in their eyes.

As they gain consciousness, they look around in confusion, making soft more animalistic grunts. They looked upon Wang Long with wide eyes, having no memory of a being like him in their memories.

"Oops, forgot" Wang Long said with a weary smile before putting a finger to their foreheads and injecting the knowledge that he is their creator. Streaming in pure information as they know no language yet.

Even after Wang Long finished injecting memories, not even an instant had passed, giving no time to Adam and eve to react.

When they realised what happened, they both simultaneously froze despite what their instincts told them. As they were unable to feel Wang Longs aura at all and only saw him as a black mass of human like shape, they instinctively felt that they could attack him.

Though part of their instincts told them otherwise, their minds completely overpowered everything their instincts told them, feeling only fear and a slight gratitude.

The new obtained knowledge that the being in front of them created everything around them scared them, that's even when they couldn't comprehend it fully.

In response to their fearful and cowering stances, Wang Long only chuckled slightly. "Yes that makes sense, humans never did have the best instincts did they?"

Wang Long suddenly stepped forward, dissapearing into space, appearing back at his pagoda, those words echoing around Adam and eve, though it didn't mater as they didn't have any understanding fo the language.

As Wang Long got back to his pavilion, he sat back down on his rocking chair as he calmly opened the system panel as he watched.

God points: 567

"Hm, not few but certainly not a lot" promptly closing his panel after checking his points. Right after, Wang Long sat on his chair rocking lightly as he observed Adam and Eve, using his God's sense to watch as they finally relax after seeing Wang Long.

"So it begins..."
