Chapter 627: Let’s Create Humans Together
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
In any case, all nine tribes had to get accustomed to this world and survive to the best of their abilities. Hence, there wasn’t actually much for Tina and An Lin to do at this point.
The birth of these nine tribes further diversified the world and also changed the balance of the entire world.
The dinosaurs were still the rulers of this world.
However, the emergence of the nine tribes exerted unprecedented pressure on the dinosaurs.
The nine tribes grew more and more powerful with each pa.s.sing generation, and some of the tribes who were more into research, such as the Snake Spirit Clan, the Holy Martial Clan, and the Heavenly Turtle Tribe, had even devised basic cultivation methods.
On the other hand, the dinosaurs weren’t really making many self-improvements.
An Lin knew that it was the dinosaurs’ lack of intelligence that limited their progression. They weren’t highly intelligent lifeforms, so they were unable to create or learn cultivation methods and divine abilities. As a result, they could only rely on their apt.i.tudes.
Thus, there were very few first-rate powerful beings among the dinosaurs, and they could only use quant.i.ty to make up for what they lacked in quality.
Meanwhile, there were already Spirit Nurturing Stage powerful beings that appeared within the nine tribes. This pushed the power scale in this world to a whole new level.
As the nine tribes became more and more powerful, a war against the dinosaurs inevitably erupted.
This was an earth-shattering war that decided who would be able to obtain more territories and resources.
Within the forests of the south.
Packs of winged dinosaurs flew toward a gargantuan tree. They could detect extremely powerful vital energy fluctuations from the tree as well as the forest it belonged to, and this was something that was quite attractive to them.
The pack of close to a hundred winged dinosaurs was only facing one enemy, and that was a member of the Vermilion Bird Tribe.
Countless sound waves and air blast attacks instantly converged toward the bird that was enveloped in white flames while leaving snapped tree trunks and pulverizing tree branches in their paths.
The bird showed no hint of fear as it let loose a sharp screech before boundless flames began to sweep toward its a.s.sailants. The flames clashed with the air blasts before conquering them in a split second and engulfing the pack of winged dinosaurs that could only look on in shock and horror.
A series of anguished wails reverberated through the air as one roasted winged dinosaur after another fell from the sky.
A disdainful expression appeared on the bird’s face as it returned to the gargantuan tree, where it closed its eyes to rest.
Up in the sky, An Lin surveyed the battle with relish before turning to the woman beside him. “As expected of the baby bird that was once held by you; it’s already at the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage! Did you use some hacks on it?”
“Hmph! What kind of fairy do you take me for?”
Tina waved her fists around as she glowered at An Lin.
An Lin shrugged before turning to the hundreds of images displayed before him. All the images displayed the battles between the dinosaurs and the nine tribes, and all the battles ended in landslide victories to the nine tribes, while the dinosaurs were completely crushed.
In the pitiful minority of battles won by the dinosaurs, they employed tactics of basically drowning their enemies with numbers, and the numbers of dinosaurs that they sacrificed made the victories quite pointless.
For example, an army of thirty Dragon Tribe cultivators was torn to shreds by over a thousand aquatic dinosaurs, but they were able to take down several hundred of their opponents before they all fell.
As aforementioned, there were some particularly intelligent dinosaurs that invented all sorts of stone tools, among which included protective equipment as well as weapons.
However, the Holy Martial Clan invented a method to force their vital energy to the surface of their bodies in order to act as strength-enhancement gloves. These weapons were far superior to any stone weapons or armor, and a fully-grown Holy Martial Clan cultivator wearing the aforementioned vital energy gloves could pulverize one shark-tooth dinosaur, along with their full suit of stone armor, in one punch.
This disparity in equipment was a direct manifestation of the disparity in intelligence and apt.i.tude between the species.
Even though the dinosaurs already had enhanced apt.i.tude bestowed upon them by Tina, this was simply the upper limit of what they were capable of. There was no way for them to improve further no matter how hard they tried, not unless they somehow evolved into a higher intelligence life form.
The battle for the territories lasted for several dozen years.
In the end, the population of the dinosaurs drastically decreased, and their territory dwindled significantly as a result.
The rulers of the world had been dethroned to the second tier on the food chain.
The new rulers of the world had already been born; they were the highly intelligent and gifted nine tribes!
After they established their positions in this world, the world seemed to have transformed once again. It appeared to be more full of vitality and somehow more prosperous.
“Alright, this world is ready for us to create humans!” Tina’s emerald eyes shone with excitement and anxiety.
An Lin was also extremely excited to hear this.
The creation of humans… This was a legendary miracle!
No one knew exactly where humans came from, but the humans on Earth were most likely created by Nuwa!
Then what kind of existence was Nuwa? She had transcended above and beyond even all the legendary Dao Integration Stage True G.o.ds on Tai Chu Continent. There was no term to describe what her cultivation base was, but it was no exaggeration to refer to her as a G.o.d of Creation.
Tina was about to do something that Nuwa had done before. How could An Lin remain calm with this notion in mind?
“What do we need to prepare in advance?” An Lin asked with excitement on his face.
“Hmm… I might need a wood-type immortal pill that is imbued with spiritual power.” Tina stole a careful glance up at An Lin with a hint of uneasiness on her face, as if she was afraid that An Lin would reject her request.
“No problem!” An Lin immediately clapped his hands together in agreement and asked, “Anything else?”
“Ah…” Tina faltered slightly, as if she hadn’t expected An Lin to agree so easily. “That’s all for now…”
“Alright! Let me out of here, and I’ll get that immortal pill for you right away,” An Lin replied with zero hesitation.
Tina aimed a grateful glance at him before placing her soft, warm hand on An Lin’s forehead.
After a rush of dizziness, An Lin was back.
Tina’s hand was still placed on An Lin’s head, and she slowly opened her eyes with a hint of exhaustion on her face. “Giant An Lin, I’m going to take a nap. Wake me up when you get back.”
“No problem!” An Lin immediately rushed out the door to fly toward Dou Shuai Palace.
Four hours later, he returned with a triumphant expression while holding a fifth-grade immortal pill in his hand.
However, right at this moment, An Lin caught sight of a familiar figure.
Xu Xiaolan had her hands on her hips as she glowered at An Lin. “An Lin! You’ve been ditching cla.s.ses for close to a month! It’s almost time for the end-of-term examinations, why are you still not coming to cla.s.ses?! I’m not going to apply for anymore leave for you!”
“Ah… We’re up to the most important stage now, so please apply for a few more days of leave for me,” An Lin said as he scratched his head sheepishly.
“Most important stage? What are you up to?” Xu Xiaolan’s brows furrowed as she glanced at An Lin with suspicion on her slightly flushed features.
“I’m creating a life with Tina!” An Lin replied with excitement on his face.
Xu Xiaolan’s body swayed upon hearing this. “Cre… creating life?!”
“That’s right! Haha, didn’t expect that, did ya?” An Lin chuckled before a chill suddenly ran down his spine.
“That’s right, I didn’t expect that…” Xu Xiaolan’s face convulsed before she suddenly seemed to realize something. She then asked, “How are you going to create a life with her?”
“Remember how I told you that I’m able to project my consciousness into Tina’s world? Well, her world has progressed to the stage where we can create humans in there! This is the birth of a new human race! How stimulating is that?” An Lin was gus.h.i.+ng with excitement.
Xu Xiaolan heaved a sigh of relief before nodding her head. “It really is quite stimulating…”
“Then I won’t keep you from what you’re doing. But I’m only going to apply for a week more of leave for you. After that, it will be the end-of-term examinations. I won’t be able to help you if the homeroom teacher comes to find you.” Xu Xiaolan splayed her hands before her.
“Thank you, Celestial Maiden Xiaolan!”
An Lin immediately waved his hand in farewell as he eagerly made his way back to his dorm room.
“Jeez… He won’t even take an extra look at me… Is the creation of humans really that interesting to watch?” Xu Xiaolan muttered to herself as she shook her head and walked back toward her own dorm room.
