I Might Be A Fake Cultivator

Although the Dragon Tribe were shunned for their looks, Tina still allocated some small fish and krill for them to eat so that they wouldn’t starve to death.

After that, An Lin and Tina visited all the other tribes before leaving with satisfied expressions on their faces.

As for the language, Tina had planted the Tai Chu Language into their minds.

This was to prevent a potentially awkward situation later down the track where An Lin was confronted with a bunch of tribes that were speaking foreign languages.

“Next, it’s time to create some stars!” Tina announced with a smile.

An Lin turned to Tina with incredulity. “Create stars? Shouldn’t there be stars already?”

“Oh… the stars in this world are all fake. I created them so that the nights wouldn’t be too bland. You told me that those from the Dark Wing Tribe need to absorb the power of the stars to grow, so we’ll have to make some real stars now,” Tina explained.

“That doesn’t make sense. I can clearly feel the power of the stars already,” An Lin retorted.

“All the things that you can see and feel are only because I wanted you to see and feel them. However, it’s an undeniable fact that they’re all fake. Oh, right, even the moon is fake,” Tina added with a smile.

An Lin: “…”

He massaged his brows as he struggled to wrap his head around the idea. “So what are you going to do? Each and every star in the sky is actually a massive star imbued with vast amounts of energy. Essentially, they’re all suns in their own right. To create a sky full of stars is an unimaginable project. Furthermore, do you have enough space in this world to fit all the stars?”

Tina wagged a slim finger with a profound smile and said, “Who told you all stars are suns? The light of the sun traveled countless units of distance through space, absorbing the power in outer space to create the power of stars as an end result.

“However, there is another way to achieve this, and that is to use the power of the stars as an energy source to create a star that is imbued with the power of stars before hanging it in the air a small distance away.

“After that, I can create a law of this world that all living creatures will experience an overwhelming sense of debilitation when they fly to an altitude of over five hundred kilometers from the ground. As long as their power doesn’t exceed mine, they’ll never be able to escape from this world.

“But there’s no way that they’ll be more powerful than me because I am the Master of this world! Hahaha… they’ll slowly come to accept this law as a law of physics.

“Some highly intelligent lifeforms would be able to use technological devices or devise some sort of divine ability to observe the world around them and come to a conclusion that the stars are suns in outer space. Of course, that is just an illusion I want them to see. Thus, I can restrict their movement while giving them the false impression that the outer space is infinitely huge…”

Tina grew more and more excited as she spoke, while An Lin was starting to reconsider his life.

Fake, it’s all fake…

The stars are fake, the moon is fake, even this world is fake…

Chills ran down his spine as he explored this train of thought. He suddenly thought of Earth. Was everything there just an illusion that Nuwa wanted them to see? After all, no one had actually explored the entirety of outer space, so how could they know if all these kinds of stuff were real?

And Tai Chu Continent too…

An Lin felt like he was developing an unhealthy obsession as an irrepressible urge to explore and verify the world around him began to well up in his heart.

“Sigh, it’s just a pity that I have to go and find something imbued with the fundamental power of stars. I won’t be able to create something like that without a reference point.” Tina sighed with distress on her face.

A thought suddenly occurred to An Lin as he proposed an idea, “I have two Stardust Fruits I collected from the Stardust Tree, which are imbued with the fundamental power of stars. That should work, right?”

Tina was ecstatic to hear this. “That’s great! Let’s get out of here first, Giant An Lin!”

Whoosh…

A rush of dizziness ensued before An Lin returned to his world.

Tina rocked his arm from side to side with anticipation burning in her eyes. “Giant An Lin, where is the Stardust Fruit? Let me see it…”

An Lin produced the Stardust Fruit from his storage ring, and Tina verified that she could indeed use it as a reference point!

Thus, Tina replaced all the fake stars in her world with real stars.

Time flashed by as all the nine tribes grew and began to produce offspring.

The first generation Dragon Tribe gradually grew dragon scales, and their bodies grew larger and larger as they became the kings of the ocean.

All of them were endowed with exceptional talent as all the dragons could absorb the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth into their own bodies. In other words, they could cultivate autonomously through the Dao Body Stages. On top of that, they were all extremely proficient at water manipulation, and the aquatic dinosaurs were no match for them.

The pristine, white Holy Martial Clan were a clan of warriors who were constantly trying to expand their territory.

Each and every one of them sparred regularly and instructed their successive generations diligently in the ways of war as well. The fully-grown Holy Martial Clan cultivators were extremely fond of battling the largest tyrannosaurus rex they could find in order to hone their combat skills.

The most powerful cultivators among them were already able to slay a tyrannosaurus rex around a dozen meters tall with just one fist, which placed them at somewhere around the pinnacle of the Dao Body Stage.

The most carefree and leisure tribes out of all the nine tribes were the Heavenly Turtle Tribe and the Spirit Fish Clan. They loved to explore all the mysteries of the world, gaze up at the stars, and search for the answers to fundamental questions like who they were, where they came from, what was the purpose of their existence…

They would occasionally explore nature and invent all types of sorcery techniques as well.

The tribe, which had the easiest lives, was the Snake Spirit Clan. They had the ability to communicate with all creatures of the world as well as to sense their emotions. As such, all living beings were fond of them, and they had countless underlings wherever they went, so it could be said that they were the tribe with the most powerful hidden forces.

The tribe with the most boring lifestyle was the Stone Tribe. They very rarely moved. All of them spent most of their time standing like statues while absorbing the power of the earth or listening to the pulse of the earth.

Grass grew on their bodies, and all sorts of little animals settled all over them, but they were still completely oblivious.

The most An Lin had ever seen them move was when two Stone Tribe creatures were working hard to produce offspring. In that instance, they engaged in vigorous exercise for an entire minute!

The tribe that lived the most motonotous lives was the Dark Wing Tribe. They slept throughout the day and only came out to starbathe at night in an extremely bland and boring lifestyle.

Due to the fact that they lived on a floating continent, they looked down upon all the land-dwelling creatures and called themselves the ambassadors of the heavens. At times, they would spread their wings and look down at all the land-dwelling creatures as a “heavenly patrol”.

The tribe that lived the most freely was the Vermilion Bird Tribe. All of them traveled throughout the entire continent without a care in the world. Tina was starting to feel concerned about their lack of reproduction. After all, all of them flew everywhere with zero inhibitions and completely disregarded the issue of raising the next generation! Even now, all of the vermilion birds were still single!

If worst came to worst, Tina would have to force them to reproduce…

An Lin was extremely envious of the Vermilion Bird Tribe. None of them even had to worry about finding their Dao partners as their God of Creation would find one for them eventually!

The tribe with the most arduous lives would have to be the True Demon Tribe.

They lived in the harshest environment and faced countless mutant beasts every single day. As such, they were also the tribe with the strongest combat and survival abilities. As for why they inhabited such a harsh environment, it was because that was what Tina intended for them.

“The true demons were clearly evil creatures, so I can’t let them live happy lives!”

Those were Tina’s exact words.

After hearing this, even An Lin developed a strong sense of sympathy for the True Demon Tribe.

What was it like to have a god who made decisions based on prejudice?

The true demons would probably weep if they knew the true reason for why they had been relegated to such an abhorrent environment…

Aside from their combat and survival skills, their cooking skills were also quite good.

The could cook anything and eat everything. No mutant beast slain by them could escape the fate of being eaten.

This was probably in direct correlation with the environment they were living in. In such a horrible environment, they had to know how to survive and how to eat.

For some reason, An Lin was suddenly reminded of the strange illusion he had seen in the Shou Yang Tomb.

There was also a little demon who could cook there…

Was this a coincidence?
