Once Wang Ping's will descended, the vast resource machine under his command began operating silently yet efficiently.
The first thing established was a spacetime passage that only his Primordial Spirit could clearly observe and maintain—a stable energy conduit constructed between Jupiter orbit and the starry sky at the opposition point he had selected.
To accomplish this, he needed to mark rune circuits throughout all the starry sky in Jupiter orbit's outer and inner layers, and a Spirit Gathering Formation had to be established at regular intervals.
Yet that was merely the foundation. After all, he was setting up a spacetime passage. Once that was done, Wang Ping needed to personally control the Puppets and imbue the passage with the properties of "spacetime." At the same time, he also had to erect the basic framework of the fortress magical artifact.
Twenty years were but the flick of a finger to the vast starry sky.
Wang Ping remained stationed at Jupiter orbit, but his mind divided into two. One part continued monitoring the situation in the starry sky, while the other devoted itself fully to constructing the fortress. The Puppets under his command that possessed Third Realm unorthodox Earth Vein cultivators became the "engineers" of this distant expanse of stars.
The Puppets first drew over a celestial body that had long been surveyed, roughly a hundred li in diameter, and placed it within Jupiter orbit's gravitational field. The next step was to alter the body's mass until it could interact with the orbital gravity.
Amid a humming drone, the Earth Vein power of the starry sky was forcibly mobilized. The asteroid's internal structure began to be reshaped, impurities expelled to form a diffuse cloud of dust in space, which the Puppets then swept into designated formations with a wave of their hands,
