As the weakest person among the 3,936,884,329 entrants who were lucky enough to enter the Heavenly Shrine, Yan Liqiang made a wise decision to give up on the idea of creating a human after he learned how much energy it would take to activate the seal of life for it. Based on Fu Guang's explanation, he would have to spend a few centuries doing nothing but infusing energy into the Heavenly Stone every single day with his current ability if he wanted to create a human. Even with that, it wasn't guaranteed that he would be able to activate the seal of life for a human. This completely defeated the purpose for Yan Liqiang, even if he could create a competent warrior.
Therefore, the Heavenly Stone's function of creating a human became completely useless to Yan Liqiang and instantly destroyed many of his plans and strategies which revolved around this.
