Heavenborn Race - 209

Heaven stood still and nodded while Zhou Fan continued to talk about what he should do. 

Heaven's body was the size of a 5 or six year old child. His head reached Zhou Fan's waist. He had white hair and blue eyes, similar to his soul form.

The rest of his body was mostly the same as normal human children. Despite looking the same, the power hidden beneath his skin was countless times higher than any other human child.

As for his brain, it was countless times more powerful than anyone else's in the entire universe, besides Zhou Fan of course.

"....the life born inside of this galaxy will be essential to your growth and my experiment. Do you understand everything I just told you?" Zhou Fan asked, finishing up his lecture.

"Yes father. I will get right to it." Heaven responded. 

"Not yet." Zhou Fan interrupted. "There is still another planet."

Before heaven could react, Zhou Fan grabbed his arm and teleported him above another planet. This planet was much less full of life and seemed to be a wasteland.

Without Zhou Fan needing to say anything, heaven released his divine sense and covered the planet with it. 

He was then able to see and understand everything about the world's structure and the life inside it. He even mentally developed a plan. Once Zhou Fan explained what he should do, he would see how close it was to his idea.

"This world seems a lot more difficult on the surface, but it should be fairly simple to fix up. I've temporarily given you some of my ability to evolve and control the evolution of life. SInce you don't have divinity, you'll be using some of mine." Zhou Fan said.

"Here are some microorganisms." Zhou Fan said as he handed heaven a bottle with a nearly clear liquid in it. "You will use this to create more variations of life. As for the state of the world, you will need to use life rain and some water. There is water and ice on many planets in this galaxy. Just grab some from them. You can always repay it back later."

Heaven continued to nod as Zhou Fan spoke. The plan he had developed earlier was somewhat similar to Zhou Fans. Unfortunately, he hadn't known about the microorganisms or divinity before he made his plan.

"Now. Implement these ideas and add a twist of your own. I'll be watching until I can trust that you understand your duties." Zhou Fan said before seemingly fading into the darkness.

Although heaven could not sense or see Zhou Fan, he still let out a yes sir and got to work. The first thing he did was cast life rain on the two planets. Since he was strong enough to easily travel the galaxy, the time it took to move around was negligible.

After a day of waiting, he brought some ice from an ice giant not too far away and put it on the wasteland planet.

After some thinking, he made three giant lakes that could be described as oceans. They were perfectly circular and took up half of the surface area of the planet.

He then left the second planet alone for a while. It needed some time before he could move on to the next part of his plan. 

At the first planet, heaven manipulated the genetics of many of the species. Unfortunately, he was nowhere near the level of Zhou Fan. He was unable to easily create any sort of humanoid species.

----------------------------------

A hundred thousand years later, Zhou Fan lazily watched heaven move around while in the void. He had to admit that he was surprised by his ability. It seemed he had a natural talent for such things.

Although a long time had passed to some, both Zhou Fan and heaven were very powerful beings. The time seemed to pass in an instant to both of them. 

All of a sudden, heaven shouted out in victory and raised both of his arms. Zhou Fan paid a little more attention to his progress on the first world and couldn't help but internally clap.

After so long, heaven had managed to create a humanoid race. They were very intelligent and their talent was on par with the celestials. Although Zhou Fan was much weaker than heaven when he had created the celestials, it was still an achievement that he could match the lesser dao creation realm Zhou Fan, even if he was using the god realm Zhou Fans powers to achieve it.

---------------------------------

It didn't take too long before heaven came up with a name for his newly created race.

"I shall call you the heavenborn race." He said triumphantly.

He then decided to do something Zhou Fan had never done with the early celestials. Show himself.

Although he had thought of descending in his body, he felt that it wouldn't give as much of an impact. He truly was Zhou Fan's child.

---------------------------------------

On the first planet, an elegant looking middle aged man was staring at his hands. He was still in the very beginning stage of life, despite being fully grown. 

Naturally, he couldn't have been born as a baby due to the fact that he was the first heavenborn.

He was just beginning to have thoughts such as who am I, and what am I, but a sudden energy gathered far above his head. Despite being a mortal, although his body was as strong as a golden core cultivator due to the power of the heavenborn race, he was able to sense the energy above him.

It wasn't that he was very special, but that the energy fluctuation was just so strong.

As he looked up, he saw an unforgettable scene. A giant blue eye floated in the sky. It seemed to cover up the sun and the clouds. It peered down in the manor of a god.

"My child." It said in a deep and dignified voice. "You are a heavenborn, created by heaven. You are the first. Your duty is to serve heaven and the beings under heaven. Do you accept."

Naturally, there was no room for negotiation.
