And the next morning, she would not be setting off with the convoy. Once she finished her work, she would depart by air.

Far from the Transfer Station, amid an enormous field of dunes.

Jiang Han had temporarily erected a windproof cloak shelter, inside which were piled books, a spell toolkit, a spatial materials box, and a simple desk.

Spread across the desk was an enormous blueprint—roughly as large and as thick as the instruction manual for a life-sized LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon replica. The countless tens of millions of components were enough to make anyone tremble.

The blueprint displayed the design for a sky island, employing the classic six-layer sky-island construction:

First layer: the upper rock-wall layer. The edges of most sky islands in the world stood five to ten meters higher than their interiors. This layer served as privacy protection and a basic defensive construction zone. Most witches also created upward-flowing water to fill the rock walls.

Third layer: the magnetic rock-shelf layer, the rock that enveloped the entire
