😅Hey godfathers passing by, please consider adding this to your favorites and following along!
😰 Help! I've almost written 100,000 words and haven't received a single real comment. Thank goodness a bot showed up to support me, otherwise I'd be putting on a one-man show. Actually, when I was writing my first book, no one was reading it before I reached 100,000 words, so I was quite patient and wanted to wait until the word count increased before continuing.
I'm speechless. In the world of Investiture of the Gods, you can't write about someone destined to be an emperor. If you're a nobody, you have to overcome obstacles step by step. But instead, the system directly gives you the destiny of an emperor! Who's going to read this?
The reason he didn't appear at the very beginning, and why his embarrassing moments weren't explicitly stated with just a "the end," is because he was always there. Ultimately, he succeeded through the novel *Investiture of the Gods*, but true deification lies with the real person.
The director of the Investiture of the Gods has always been Taiyi Zhenren himself. Look at Laozi and Yuanshi; they truly achieved the investiture of gods. Only Taiyi Zhenren wasn't; he was a minor figure. But Yuanshi and the others had already achieved the investiture of gods, while he alone hadn't. So, he was the one who made this happen. Moreover, from the beginning, whether it was Yuanshi or others, including Nuwa, everyone knew that this was a novel.
From the moment Taiyi Zhenren appeared, he realized that the entire Investiture of the Gods was just a novel. He didn't want to become, or rather, didn't want to remain, a fictional character forever. He wanted to transform the fiction into reality, to create a true Investiture of the Gods, which is why he directed this entire project.
Although it's master-level skill, or rather, this is the true skill of "Big Plate Chicken" (a popular Chinese dish), I saw a short animated video they made on Douyin before. The protagonist time-travels and meets his master, who then says he'll take him home.
The so-called "Investiture of the Gods" was, in essence, only granting divine status to Taiyi Zhenren, because he was a fictional character. Ultimately, through the influence of the novel *Investiture of the Gods*, the fiction was successfully made real, and the investiture of gods was truly realized.
Oh, this isn't the primordial era, it's just a simple Investiture of the Gods. Besides, in the Investiture of the Gods, the one who ultimately gets to be deified is, frankly, Taiyi Zhenren himself. I'm talking about the real-life Investiture of the Gods, Taiyi Zhenren. In the end, he actually bestows a deification upon a fictional character. It's a real person who helps him achieve this.
