Chapter 417: Feng Du Creates Ghosts (Part 2)
That is precisely why, even under the grand momentum of the Heavenly Dao where the Human Clan flourishes, the Witchman Clan, possessing the Witch Clan bloodline, can only be a branch of the Human Clan.
But merely due to this blood connection between the Human Clan and the Witch Clan, it is more than enough for their fortunes to intertwine, bringing considerable benefits to the Witch Clan.
This result was not calculated solely by Emperor Fengdu, but was a collaborative computation with his true form.
That is precisely why Emperor Fengdu did not invest much effort into the flourishing of the Human Clan.
His main focus remained in the space behind a restriction, within a space located at Fengdu Palace.
More precisely, the space is established above the Netherworld as a Small World, carved out by Emperor Fengdu himself.
Inside, countless elements of the Space Law are hidden, rendering the space immensely vast and boundless.
Within the Small World, a blood moon hangs in the sky, and pure Yin energy continually surges throughout the world, filling every corner.
Simultaneously, the Soul Power drifts within, colliding and combining with the pure Yin energy, creating the environment of the Netherworld.
The laws within this Small World were personally crafted and calibrated by Emperor Fengdu to nurture the Innate Spirit Ghosts he desires.
Innate Spirit Ghosts are not ghosts formed by the death of living beings on the Primordial Continent who then cultivate the Ghost Path, transforming from souls to ghosts; they are nurtured by the Netherworld, born as ghosts.
Emperor Fengdu began preparing for this a long time ago.
After all, in today's Primordial World, once a living being completes its Primordial Spirit cultivation, even upon death, it rarely enters the Netherworld.
Compared to entering the Netherworld to erase past stories and reincarnate anew, becoming someone else,
they prefer to preserve their self, retaining their memories, to be reborn, or live directly in the state of Primordial Spirit.
Comparatively, souls entering the Netherworld tend to have lower innate talents, even if they transform into the Ghost Path, their achievements are limited.
It can be said that besides the Witch Clan, the cultivators within the Netherworld are those filtered and eliminated from the Primordial cultivation, entering the Netherworld.
That is precisely why Emperor Fengdu wanted the Netherworld to birth life belonging truly to him, not filtered through the Primordial sieve.
This notion seemed fanciful, after all, among the three large worlds of Primordial, no world uses its own birthed life.
The Demon Realm was formed from the original Demon Path beings transformed into Outer Heaven Demons, becoming its life.
The Heavenly Realm comprised the beings from the Primordial Continent that joined the Demon Clan, becoming its life.
The Netherworld, originally where the Witch Clan resided and now the resting place of the departed, how could it speak of born life?
Yet in Emperor Fengdu's view, creating Innate Spirit Ghosts is not impossible, and he feels the prospect is promising.
Within this Small World, its internal small Heavenly Dao Laws are projections of the Netherworld Law captured by Emperor Fengdu.
However, the extracted Netherworld Law was grand, with Emperor Fengdu using its Ghost Dao Law as the main element and Creation Path as a supplement.
The Ghost Path aura mixed into the pure Yin energy and Soul Power, scattering across the world.
The Creation Aura likewise followed, catalyzing the birth of Spirit Ghosts.
Unfortunately, throughout countless years, this world has yet to birth any life.
Emperor Fengdu gradually realized that the Netherworld Law is inherently not about nurturing life, but about nourishing souls.
Upon understanding this, Emperor Fengdu began to change, no longer relying purely on the Small World to birth life.
He started introducing aura from various races within the Netherworld into this world.
Not introducing their complete souls, only their True Spirits, and aura.
Do not presume that souls entering the Netherworld have absolute safety, only needing to wait quietly for reincarnation.
In the Netherworld, many souls dissipate.
Some fall into the Yellow Spring, erased by the Yellow Springs Water, some upon traversing the Eighteen Layers of Hell are unable to bear, their souls scattered, and some lack the soul strength to wait for reincarnation...
In various situations, without Emperor Fengdu's personal intervention, countless True Spirits and soul aura from various races can be obtained.
As the True Spirits surged into this Small World, Emperor Fengdu sensed a difference.
Even though life had not yet emerged in this Small World, he could distinctly feel vitality emerging within.
Indeed, beneath the pure Yin energy and various auras, Emperor Fengdu felt vitality.
This equates to birthing a hint of vitality in a world of the dead.
Besides introducing the drifting True Spirits from within the Netherworld, Emperor Fengdu simply observed the Small World, without intervention.
Under these circumstances, the Small World finally changed under the influence of the Creation Aura, birthing plants infused with pure Yin energy.
Such plants also exist within the Netherworld.
Though what gave Emperor Fengdu joy was this Small World did indeed change, no longer stagnant.
With time, life gradually began to form in the Small World, existing directly in the form of ghost bodies.
Though not exactly what Emperor Fengdu envisioned, possessing the great potential of Innate Spirit Ghosts.
Yet since change had already occurred, Emperor Fengdu felt less urgent, experimenting and altering slowly.
Though this matter has yet to succeed, Emperor Fengdu remained silent to others, only he and his true form knowing.
As for the vanished True Spirits within the Netherworld, Ping Xin does not query much when facing Emperor Fengdu.
It was at this very moment that the Heavenly Mechanism changed, the great momentum of the Heavenly Dao revealed, the Human Clan eminent.
Before Ping Xin arrived, Emperor Fengdu thought of how the Human Clan must harbor vast secrets; otherwise, it would not repeatedly trigger changes in the Heavenly Dao.
In his mind, a thought immediately emerged: if he introduced the dispersed soul aura of the Human Clan into the Small World, would there be changes?
Is there something hidden in the Human Clan aiding the birth of Innate Spirit Ghosts?
As for Ping Xin's later arrival, discussing the matter of the Human Clan with Emperor Fengdu, it was merely incidental.
Initially, Emperor Fengdu introduced a large amount of the Human Clan's soul aura, yet nothing particularly transpired in the Small World, only disappointingly birthing ghost bodies.
These ghost bodies were even inferior to ghosts transformed from souls practicing the Ghost Path.
Perhaps they couldn't be considered life, merely possessing a ghost body.
But with the flourishing of the Human Clan, Emperor Fengdu discovered that the introduced soul aura was not just from the Human Clan, but also included aura from other races.
Under these circumstances, Emperor Fengdu focused more on introducing the Human Clan aura.
With a large amount of Human Clan soul aura flooding in, Emperor Fengdu noticed the ghost bodies birthed in the Small World began to change.
Emperor Fengdu observed these ghost bodies with his Divine Sense, noting they increasingly resembled the Human Clan's Innate Taoist Body.
The Human Clan?
Indeed, possessing hidden secrets, perhaps the birth of Innate Spirit Ghosts truly hinges on the Human Clan.
Emperor Fengdu mused in his heart.
With the influx of abundant Human Clan soul aura, Emperor Fengdu also sensed the intertwining fortuity of the Small World and the Human Clan.
As the Human Clan flourished, the fortune of this Small World also changed.
Perhaps what I imagined about Innate Spirit Ghosts still must rest upon the flourishing of the Human Clan.
Emperor Fengdu thought to himself.
If the Human Clan prospered further, and its fortune grew stronger, could it stimulate the Small World to birth true Innate Spirit Ghosts?
Regarding this, Emperor Fengdu is filled with anticipation.
