What exactly did I create?
I don't even know myself, alright!
Creativity and whatnot, shouldn't it only count if I create something useful?
While he was still complaining in his mind, the second task arrived.
"Create two sets of symbols that have no pattern and are of great significance."
If complaining was also a form of cultivation, Chen Guang felt that he had long since surpassed the main gods.
Why don't you give me something a little different!
The first test had one set, the second test had two sets, then wouldn't the third test have three sets?
He raised his hand to draw another set of talismans, and the effect was exactly the same as the first test.
Even Chen Guang himself could not understand what he drew, but it just so happened that it was recognized by the Realm within a Cup.
Looking at the three piles of "symbols" floating in the air in front of him, Chen Guang's eyes widened as he stared at them, racking his brains to try and discern some meaning from them.
But he quickly gave up on this futile idea. These were all random drawings that he had drawn in a completely unconscious state, and there was no way they could have any real meaning.
This situation and this scene even made him question the strictness of the Heavenly Holy Grail. If this could be called creativity, then even a newborn could have endless creativity.
Could the third test really be …
"Create three sets …"
Alright, you win, I concede.
You're clearly using the excuse of creativity to toy with me, aren't you?
You say it's creation, but what you're doing is completely meaningless nonsense!
It's probably because I've fused with the Heavenly Holy Grail, so I've tarnished this great divine weapon?
The more Chen Guang thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible.
But he quickly shook his head violently, indicating that he could not approve of it. Otherwise, wouldn't that mean that he was admitting that he was a fool?
This was clearly not harmonious!
Just like that, when he drew all the way to the tenth set, there was finally a change.
"Create a set of compositions that are full of beauty."
Chen Guang snapped his fingers. Finally, it was upgraded.
If it was in the past, it would be difficult for him to understand what it meant to be full of beauty.
However, the present was different from the past. After going through the Spirit Seeing Sky, One Line Sky, and Cloud Elephant Sky, which were interspersed with sketching, oil painting, watercolor painting, traditional Chinese painting, computer graphics, sculpture, relief sculpture, and other arts related special training, Chen Guang's attainments in art could be said to be number one throughout the ages.
If he wanted to, he could easily create a painting with just a wave of his hand. If he took it out, it would be comparable to Van Gogh, Da Vinci, Zhang Daqian, Qi Baishi, or even Tang Bohu.
Although times were changing, and people's preferences and fashions would more or less change, the pursuit of beauty was a concept that had been engraved in human genes since ancient times.
Whether a painting was beautiful or not, whether a person was beautiful or not, although there were differences between the East and the West, they were similar in many aspects.
Chen Guang even believed that the aesthetics of the Protoss were basically the same as that of humans.
The reason was very simple. The God Emperors he had met, whether it was Yu Ting or Ba Fang, were all considered handsome.
There was no need to mention Liuli's beauty. When he first saw her, Chen Guang, who was still a mortal at that time, was almost "killed" by her beauty.
The Protoss had the ability to adjust their appearance. If a God felt that their image was not good, even if it was not a big change, at least a small adjustment would be inevitable.
From this, it could be seen that the beauty of a God was basically the same as that of a human.
Chen Guang spent at least half an hour thinking in his mind. He raised his hand and used his fingers to surge energy, using lines to draw a perfect combination of the golden ratio and symmetrical Chinese redbud hexagonal shape.
Once this picture was released, it would instantly become popular all over the world. Whether it was used to make a logo or as an accompanying picture, it would not be a problem. It could even be directly used as a skill icon in an online game. That would definitely be a design that people would be obsessed with, and people would be crazy enough to copy it.
"Certification failed. Redeemer, please recompose the picture. Nine chances remaining."
When this sentence appeared in his mind, Chen Guang almost thought that he was hallucinating.
Isn't this nonsense?
Things that I drew blindly passed in one try. Something that I took out with a serious composition, and you actually failed to certify it?
I don't believe it!
I'm the cup now, and I have the final say!
You have to let me pass!
Then, he seriously redrew it again. This time, he chose the six-pointed star, and the result was another certification failure without any suspense.
Chen Guang felt a little uncomfortable. For the third time, he thought about it in his mind for a whole five hours before he carefully picked up the brush. It took him the equivalent of an entire day in the outside world to take out the finished product. But the moment he put down the brush, he received a notification that the certification had failed.
Now, the situation was very awkward.
It couldn't be that he failed to draw seriously and could still pass blindly, right?
Why don't I give it a try?
I'll give it a try. Anyway, there are a total of seven chances.
This time, he simply waved his arms randomly. What he drew was still completely incomprehensible to him, and he did not feel that there was any beauty in it at all.
But he actually passed the certification!
Chen Guang was silent.
Is there something wrong with the aesthetic concept of this Heavenly Holy Grail?
I'm clearly slapping myself in the face, okay?
Just the things that I've drawn now, not to mention the aesthetics of the Protoss, they don't even touch the aesthetics of the human race. What golden ratio, what symmetrical aesthetics, or otherwise, there isn't even an aesthetic of disorder!
In short, it's completely meaningless.
Forget it. Since the Holy Grail has gone crazy, then I'll go crazy too. Anyway, it's fine as long as I can pass.
It was another very complicated round of "aesthetic" exploration filled with "creativity." After passing ten rounds in a row, Chen Guang had almost filled the void in front of him. He had to move again.
Soon, the third round of creativity appeared. This time, he was asked to draw a three-dimensional "aesthetic" structure.
Once bitten, twice shy. This time, Chen Guang simply closed his eyes and emptied his mind. His right hand danced wildly in the air as if he was possessed. Then, he passed the certification without any suspense.
When he completed the three-dimensional composition again, the task had a little more change. The Realm in the Cup finally gave him a clear goal, which was to complete a mechanical design.
Of course, the requirement was also very simple. It had to conform to aesthetics. At the same time, the machine had to have the function of fetching water.
At that time, Chen Guang raised his hand and drew a beautiful faucet. Then, the certification failed.
Soon, he used the effect of imitating CAD design to draw a stable but unaesthetic waterwheel. It was just the shape of a wheel. He didn't expect that he would pass.
Chen Guang gradually found the feeling. The so-called "full of beauty" was simply a pretense. This World of Creation was purely messing around. It simply wanted him to fool himself. There was no real creativity. It was purely the graffiti of a three-year-old.
Whether it was flat or three-dimensional, or even the so-called waterwheel or something else, it was no different from graffiti to him now.
After the waterwheel was the windmill, and after the windmill was the hoe.
For what felt like an infinite amount of time, Chen Guang constantly drew talismans or drawings in this world that was called the Creation Realm, but it seemed to have nothing to do with creation at all. It was a rather boring world.
"Congratulations, Redeemer, for successfully passing the World of Creation."
Chen Guang had no idea if the Skypiercing Holy Grail was talking to him or if it was just him talking to himself.
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.
"Oh my god, I've unknowingly drawn so many useless things for you? Huh? This is … "
Suddenly, his whole body shook and he muttered to himself, "When did I draw this thing?"
It turned out that the countless energy trace symbols he had drawn were floating in the air in front of him, arranged in a picturesque manner from top to bottom. Standing close, he could not see the whole picture clearly, but when he retreated "infinitely far away" and looked around, he could shockingly see that the symbols he had drawn had piled up to form a tree!
The shape was lush and layered. It looked like a Christmas tree no matter how he looked at it!
How could I draw such a big tree without any meaning?
Chen Guang was at a loss. The situation in front of him now reminded him of a hunting video he had seen before. A big hand was holding a pen and pointing on a piece of paper. At first, it was incomprehensible, but when he was done, he pulled the camera away and others could see that he had drawn a portrait of Che Guevara.
At this time, this was what Chen Guang felt. The tree in front of him was too realistic, and the details were too accurate. Every symbol and trace he had left before constituted every stroke on the tree.
Not only that, if he moved closer and magnified his vision, he could see that the fiber structure in the leaves of the tree was extremely reasonable.
The random strokes that he could not understand at all and felt were meaningless could actually be perfectly integrated into the whole of the tree.
There were nine layers of the trunk from top to bottom. This situation was similar to the Nine Heavens built into the Heavenly Holy Grail.
Could it be that this is actually the image of the Holy Grail hidden in the depths of my heart and subconscious?
Chen Guang asked and answered his own question, but he did not have an answer.
Although he had completed the test on the other side, the Creativity Realm did not seem to be in a hurry to send him out. Instead, it let him stand in the void and quietly admire his work.
Another moment passed, or maybe it was a very long time. The Christmas tree floating in the void began to evolve on its own, as if winter had passed and spring had come, and new leaves were blooming.
Not only that, this was originally a completely chaotic void. As the "tree" evolved, various kinds of elementary particles gradually appeared in the void.
The units of these particles were much smaller than quarks. They were born out of thin air, from nothing.
The birth of matter brought the arrival of the rules. After the rules evolved and took shape, they began to urge the evolution of matter.
This kind of evolution was not biological evolution. Instead, it directly set the combination of a level of elementary particles so that these particles could attract or repel each other, or coiled together to form the particles of the next magnitude.
The elementary particles here were not the elementary particles mentioned in the popular science books that Chen Guang read on Earth. They were just the limit of human consciousness, but not the real limit.
The real limit should be called the primordial particle.
The so-called primordial particle referred to the magnitude closest to "nothingness". There was no classification below the primordial particle. Moreover, the distance between the primordial particles was also the true nothingness.
Moreover, this particle was neither energy nor matter.
It could be a concept, a strand of flux energy, a beam of light, or even a paragraph of words. It could even be a thought in Chen Guang's mind.
At that time, the primordial particle had undergone an infinite number of combinations. After crossing an infinite number of magnitudes, the first quark finally began to appear from nothingness.
After the quark came the various atoms and molecules in the universe like Earth. The steps to form them were much faster.
The enormous tree in front of Chen Guang gradually took shape. It had the shape of a tree. Lush green leaves hung on the branches, reaching the sky and hanging down to the ground. In the middle were white clouds and air.
Looking at the so-called heaven and earth continuously growing from the crown and roots of the tree, Chen Guang suddenly understood.
This so-called creativity was really about creating a world out of nothing.
But what was the meaning of this?
This was only the fourth layer. Wasn't it too early?
Wait, it seemed like the laws of this plane were still evolving!
After the external environment had become the same as Earth's universe, the fusion between the particles did not stop. There were still more characteristics that were constantly being reflected.
Chen Guang closed his eyes and simply used his heart to feel.
He casually captured a water molecule in the air and looked at the structure of the H20. Suddenly, a layer of energy structure that was completely different from the theory of the universe on Earth was added to the structure of the H20. The water molecule began to flicker, sometimes here, sometimes there.
Chen Guang suddenly opened his eyes. The water molecule that he had been observing had unexpectedly disappeared from the universe in front of him!
No, it didn't really disappear. Instead, it appeared in an instant one year later, but in the blink of an eye, it came back again.
The three-dimensional matter had been forcibly added with the nature of time.
The dimension of this world of creation was higher than the three-dimensional dimension!
He tried to float forward, trying to shorten the distance between him and the enormous tree.
But after an unknown amount of time, the distance between him and the enormous tree did not change. It still looked as far as before.
This meant that no matter which direction he moved in, in this dimensional space, it was equivalent to walking on the spot.
This was indeed a standard four-dimensional world!
But the evolution of this plane was not over yet!
