Chapter Forty-Nine: The Book of Creation
hen the rolling smoke and dust cleared, a man in flame-colored robes appeared.This man had sword eyebrows and a handsome, dashing appearance. His scarlet flame-patterned robe was intricately embroider...Jiang Wang didn't care whether King Qing really believed the story of the Doomsday Dragon. He only cared whether the Royal Family clan was actually doing their job.
Where can you find so many unforgettable old friendships and unchanging affections
Back then, fighting in the world of Floating Lands, battling in the Underground Cave, life and death were at stake, competing fiercely on the chessboard. The nostalgic ones would say that the victory of the Qinghuo tribe was thanks to the star generals. The indifferent ones would simply say it was a matter of each taking what they needed.
It's only natural.
Four years is enough time to accommodate tremendous change.
Power and gain are enough to bring about any change.
Jiang Wang could understand.

The floating world has a long history, and he is just a fleeting visitor.
The only thing that matters right now is this cage match with Ao Kuei.
He didn't consider whether the King of Qing was sincere or not, nor should he care about Ji Huo Yu Ling's intentions.
...is just...the pessimism of Ji Huoyu Ling's display, will it affect his struggle with Ao Kui

Compared to a few years ago, perhaps Jiang Wang would have immediately chased after the person outside the palace, determined to uncover the truth no matter what. However, now, Jiang Wang simply smiled faintly and continued his tour of the Fire Temple.
If Jih Huo Yu Ling was willing to speak, or even able to speak, then Mr. Linchuan wouldn't have to chase after him for answers.

He will certainly figure out the truth, but there's no need to rush it, nor should he be so blunt.
With King You personally leading the way, the Fire Temple, of course, had its doors wide open.
The new shaman, like the former one who had brought the flames of victory, had his long hair flowing freely. He wore an exaggeratedly shaped mask and red tassels hanging from his ears like flickering flames.
His attitude wasn't exactly warm or distant, it was just obedient and proper.
"How many cards are currently collected in the 'Book of Creation'"
In the Fire Temple, far grander and more imposing than it once was, Jiang Wang got straight to the point.
The new shaman's name is Qihuo Guanwen, his voice not quite young: "A total of seven."
"So few"
"The Fire Temple originally had two pages of the Book of Creation. After gaining control, many more copies of the Book of Creation were collected, but most were repetitive. Only five contained new information."
"Can I take a look" Jiang Wang asked.
The shaman looked at King Qing, who spoke in a booming voice: "Mr. Linchuan is a great benefactor of the Qihuo tribe, and the tribe has no secrets from him. He can see whatever he wants!"
At present, the shaman led the way. Jiang Wang and King Qing walked side by side towards the library.
The huge fire temple was deserted, with only the priests coming here usually. The sound of three sets of footsteps was very clear. Their echoes resonated endlessly in the world of hearing, giving Jiang Wang information about the sound.

Basement, attic, secret compartments...
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Fire Altar is unlike anywhere else.
Walls, tiles, everywhere were painted with strange and fantastical fire beasts.
When Jiang Wang first came, he had no experience. Now, he could vaguely see some clues. These strange fire beasts... were somewhat similar to the yin demons of the border wasteland, and resembled the evil omens of misfortune.

He thought back to his discussion with Ruan Qi, the inspector of Qitian Temple, about the floating world. At the time, Ruan Qi had said that the floating world seemed like a world of tombs. He left behind a coin and told Jiang Wang to contact him if he ever had the chance to go there again.
Could it be that even as a master astrologer, Ruan Chi knew on that fateful day he would return to the mainland
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Unfortunately, the coin he'd wielded later shattered during his battle with Zhang Linchuan. Ruan Que wasn't sure if it was out of fear that he'd be called upon to help others constantly, but he never replaced it...
Otherwise, he would surely be grinding that coin-shaped knife until it smokes.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The skill of Ruan Qiyou is beyond compare, while Ao Kui's pales in comparison.
As they were pondering this, the three of them had already walked to a stone room.
It is obvious that King Qing wasn't familiar with this place, looking around nervously all the way.
Before the heavy stone gate, the shaman held a tortoise shell in one hand and a cow horn in the other. His left hand was raised while his right was lowered, his legs spread apart, he performed an ancient and absurd dance.
The lights flickered.
Distorted shadows writhed on the stone wall, accompanied by a low, gravelly chant in an unintelligible tongue, which was quite eerie.
There is a secret power flowing.
King Qing remained silent, while Jiang Wang looked calm and collected.
The Stone Gate creaked open—
It wasn't the kind of library Jiang Wang had imagined, and even the "books" were different from what he had expected.
In the light cast by the flaming totem, the stone chamber was very bright.
In the vast and cavernous stone chamber, numerous beast-shaped stone pedestals stood like a forest. The square bases were engraved with protective talismans against insects and dampness. Between the base and the stone platform, some were shaped like coiling snakes, others like raised deer antlers.
Most stone platforms were vacant, with only a few having flat, yellowish-brown clay tablets about two fist lengths long and one fist wide.
The
Book of Creation from the world of Floating Land, was originally inscribed in clay tablets!
This also conforms to the ancient style of creation myths.
The Floating Land language is very similar to the Jingguo language, and is extremely close to the Dao language. Their written characters are also similar. Therefore, even four years ago when Jiang Wang was still at the Tenglong realm, he could communicate here without any difficulty.
Now he has descended, and can freely communicate in any place within the myriad heavens and realms. Because he can speak, write, and expound on the Way to all worlds.
But the characters in this clay tablet are different, strange and distorted, resembling tadpoles swimming. They have no inherent meaning or spiritual essence, lacking the Daoist charm and making it impossible to decipher their intent.
Jiang Wang looked at the shaman.
The shaman explained, “This is the text of creation, and only a shaman with truly profound wisdom can correctly interpret its meaning.”
Jiang Wang bowed his head in greeting: "Thank you for your help."
King Qing urged from the side, "Read it quickly to Mr. Linchuan."
This is the first stone platform to the left after entering. There are not many characters on the clay tablet. The shaman read slowly: "In the northwest, there is a divine person, who dwells in the azure heaven."
Jiang Wang frowned: "How so"
Some sentences, placed in different contexts, have completely different meanings. He hasn't read the Book of Genesis and shouldn't hastily interpret it.
The shaman said: "There are two accounts regarding this picture. The first says that a divine being in the northwest direction of Fulu punched a hole in the blue heavens. The second says that a divine being in the northwest direction of Fulu descended to this world through a gate in the sky above. We generally believe the first account, that the divine being who created the gap in the blue heavens is Rui Jin's ancestor, Rui Jin Yu Feng. Before this picture of creation appeared and was successfully interpreted, there were indeed many legends about Rui Jin Yu Feng, the ancestor of the Rui Jin tribe, breaking through the heavens and traveling to the depths of the universe before returning. The gap in the sky above is the path that Rui Jin Yu Feng traveled back and forth."
Is it beyond the heavens, far into the depths of the universe
>
Jiang Wang's heart was filled with doubt. He only dared to claim he had the qualifications to travel the universe after reaching the realm of enlightenment, but he wouldn't wander recklessly, venturing into the depths of space on a whim. The vast universe held unpredictable and immeasurable risks. This assumption was based on the fact that living beings from the mortal world could traverse different realms without falling into oblivion. As for otherworldly beings, they usually fell into oblivion the moment they crossed realms.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Among those he knew who were powerful, only Guan Yan senior and Xiao Fan senior would often wander throughout the myriad heavens and worlds.
It seems that Guanyin's predecessors possessed such abilities! I shall refrain from further commentary.
In any place other than the mortal realm, wherever the stars of Yuheng shine, the Lord of Yuheng can maintain his peak combat power. On the main star of Yuheng, the Lord of Yuheng's combat power surpasses that of the peak.
If the legends of the Rui Jin Department are true, then that Rui Jin Yu Feng's strength should be no less than the level of a Cave True.
But this conflicts with his understanding of the power levels in the floating world.
"What's a mere speck in the vast expanse of heaven!" King Qing spoke up at this moment, his tone laced with disdain. "The ancestor of our Qinghuo tribe was, after all, the first being to celebrate the birth of Floating Land with dance after the Creator God created the world!"
>
Jiang Wang said out of place, "Then you guys should be the dance club, how come you are the fire celebration department"
King Qing's expression was complex: " …The ancestor was the first one to build a bonfire and dance around it in the world of floating continents. Didn't the Rujin clan also call themselves the Potian Clan"
Jiang Wang said it made sense, and then curiously asked the Shaman: "Shaman, was the dance you performed earlier the one that the Ancestor of the Qihuo tribe danced before the first bonfire"
The shaman shook his head: “That was the Dance of Zhushi, it is said to have boundless power, long since lost. I just danced freely, only able to resonate with the seal totem in this stone chamber.”
Jiang Wang faintly felt that the shaman's dance and songs were also a system of power. They could complement the totem cultivation system, unleashing even greater power.
But he did not know any shamans powerful enough to provide a clearer and more intuitive judgment. The fire inscription of the Que Huo was indeed weak, and the new shaman in front of him was also mediocre, with roughly four fire lines of strength.

The Dance of Prayer, the Song of Sacrifice, legends passed down through generations in every tribe...
As our understanding of the floating world grows, this world has not shed its veil rapidly, but rather become increasingly mysterious and complex.

If this place were truly a world of graves, what would it be burying And why would there be such abundant life here
King Qing suddenly slapped his thigh: "Wrong!"
Jiang Wang and Wu Zhu both looked at him.
A look of excitement finally seeing the truth dawned on his face: "Could the game of life and death be in the northwest direction Could Mr. Linchuan have descended through the star points This page of the Book of Creation doesn't record anything about the sharp golden phoenix, but instead, it records Mr. Zhang Linchuan! We should follow the second explanation, that in the northwest corner of the world, Mr. Zhang Linchuan, a divine man, descends through the heavenly gates above, and next, he will save the world!"
His excitement was not entirely exaggerated.
If such an interpretation of the Book of Genesis could truly be found, helping him discover the legal validity of "unreservedly supporting Zhang Linchuan," it would also serve to consolidate royal power.
And wasn't Mr. Linchuan saying The mission of this trip is to help King Qingsheng become the savior!
Even the most divine must eventually return. He, Qiheng of the Burning Heavens, is the true master of this floating world.
Jiang Wang's scalp was a little numb.
Zhang Linchuan is accustomed to manipulating faith. One book, "The Sutra of Non-Birth," has poisoned how many people in the present world.
The cultivators are here every day, Zhang Linchuan, Zhang Linchuan... they even signed the contract under King's Authority. Shouldn't we call that fellow from Source Sea over

Then King Qing closed his mouth.
The shaman had silently walked to the second stone platform and began to speak, "The name of the God of Creation is Kong. He severed his left foot to make the floating land, and he shattered his right foot to create all spirits."
After hearing a brief account from Qing Huo Ji Ming, Jiang Wang continued walking towards the third stone platform.
The shaman read aloud: “Eternal calamity, ultimate evil. One that persists forever endures, one that perishes forever ceases to exist.”
Perhaps this page could correspond to the pessimism of Jihuo Yuling
It's a shame the description is too short to understand. A whole tablet of clay and only these few characters! It wouldn't take much effort to write a few more, would it
Jiang Wang spoke up and asked, "What is the calamity of eternity, and what is the ultimate evil"
>
The shaman shook his head. "I don't know either. The answer may be in other fragments."
Jiang Wang seemed thoughtful.
King Qing clapped his hands together again: "This eternal calamity, this ultimate evil, isn't it the World-Destroying Demon Dragon! If we eliminate it, this world will exist forever. If it eliminates us, this world will be gone forever... It all adds up!"
Jiang Wang instinctively wanted to tell King Qing not to cause trouble, but she realized she couldn't stop him. If the apocalypse wasn't considered a calamity, and evil wasn't considered evil, then what was an eternal calamity or ultimate evil

How can his claim of saving the world be justified
“Ah… yes. Your Majesty speaks wisely. We must certainly work together to prevent the disaster from happening.” Jiang Wang’s expression became grave: “It turns out that my descent into this world, helping you become the true savior, was destined by heaven and foretold in the Book of Creation! Heaven entrusts great responsibilities upon you, Your Majesty, you must strive your utmost.”
King Qing was filled with ambition, his whole being invigorated: "What do I care about sacrificing myself for the salvation of the world and its people!"
The shaman continued to read from the fourth clay tablet collected in the stone chamber: "There is a world, existing within..."
"What is it for" Jiang Wang asked.
The shaman shook his head again: "I don't know either. The shamans of the original tribe only interpreted this far."
Jiang Wang could only regretfully say, "Then let's look at the next one."
“You can only look, but not read.” The shaman said.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Didn't we collect seven clay tablets with different contents What about the other three"
This is a response.
"
None of them could be deciphered.
"
Jiang Wang really wanted to ask what he was doing. But after all, she was polite: "Elder Witch Doctor, what are you usually busy with"
"As for interpreting the creation myth, this shaman of the Qihuo clan naturally said, 'I don't have that ability. The two clay tablets left by our Qihuo Clan Fire Temple are all interpreted from the Qihuo Bamboo Scriptures. The third one you and I read is an interpretation by a shaman from the Tiemu Clan. The fourth one, collected by the Yuutu Clan for so many years, has only been half deciphered.'"

The creator of the "Jing Huo Zhu Shu" is the shaman before "Jing Huo Qi Ming," and also the adoptive father of "Jing Huo Qi Ming." He is known as the strongest shaman in the history of the Jing Huo department. Inheriting the legacy of the shamans of the Jing Huo department, he has initially completed the existence of the "Yu Zhi Totem"!
"Speaking of Zhushou's strength, what level has he reached" Jiang Wang looked at King Qing and said, "How does he compare to the king"
This issue is important, as it helps him reassess the power dynamics of this world.
