Building the Illusion Continent

"You've struck it rich this time!"

When Xiao Han returned to Blade Demon City, Ice Emperor, who had already received the news, came up to greet him. She circled around Xiao Han a few times, carefully examined him, and then sighed with a strange look in her eyes.

"So, you're now the new Demon Subduing King of the Great Thousand Palace?"

Xiao Han nodded helplessly at this.

He never doubted his ability to become the Demon Subduing King, but he never imagined it would be done this way.

Aside from the Demon Subjugation Points earned from selling Secret Method, although he didn't kill any Evil Clan in this great battle, trapping the Blood Heavenly Demon Emperor and allowing the defense line to hold out until reinforcements arrived was a great achievement in itself, earning him another 7,000 Demon Subjugation Points.

In summary, the Great War brought Xiao Han over 100,000 Demon Subjugation Points, the highest amount he earned across the entire event.

This wave means we'll have to work a hundred years less.

"You..."

Ice Emperor looked at Xiao Han with eyes full of envy.

The value of Demon Subjugation Points goes without saying, and the difficulty of obtaining them is ridiculously high. Even though he killed a Nether Demon Emperor and even took away a Profound Demon Emperor, the other Extraterrestrial Evil race combined still couldn't reach the 10,000 mark.

"But you should behave yourself from now on."

"The Great Thousand Palace has sent a message telling you to stop participating in the Great War and get some rest."

Ice Emperor stretched and smiled.

"Next, I will represent our Langya Heavenly Palace in the Great War."

At this moment, the Ice Emperor's eyes were shining. He seemed to see a large number of Demon Subjugation Points entering his tent. He only needed to kill one more Demon Emperor to advance to the Demon Subduing King.

"Then you mustn't disgrace our Langya Heavenly Palace."

Ice Emperor's undisguised expression naturally did not escape the keen perception of Xiao Han. The other party was obviously holding back and casually made a teasing remark.

"Just wait, I will make the name of the Langya Heavenly Palace resound throughout the world!"

Five days later, the Ice Emperor quietly left the Blade Demon... no, now renamed Langya City. The only people who saw him off were Xiao Han and Yang Ling, the Four Great Elders of the Langya Heavenly Palace.

······

"They're gone..."

Xiao Han's gaze was distant as he looked at the continent before him, trampled upon by the Extraterrestrial Evil race. He felt both sorrow and disgust—sorrow for the suffering this land had endured, and disgust for everything on this land belonging to the Extraterrestrial Evil race. Then, he turned away decisively.

"We are preparing to gather manpower and resources from the Lingtian Continent; the transformation of the Huan Continent can now begin."

The Huan Continent has been occupied by Extraterrestrial Evil race for a long time. Every inch of the land is tainted by Demonic Qi, and the Spiritual Energy is also mottled. If it is not transformed, all living beings in the world will not be able to accept such an environment.

To his great relief, unlike the Fierce Qi Continent of the past, the Great Thousand World has gradually figured out a way to dispel Demonic Qi after the long war, so as not to abandon the entire continent.

"Yes."

The other Elder, who were already mentally prepared, naturally had no objections to this decision.

······

The original site of the Council Hall was the secluded training ground of the Profound Demon Emperor and Nether Demon Emperor of Blade Demon City. After being demolished by Xiao Han in the battle, it was rebuilt on the original site. It no longer has the sinister Evil Qi of the Extraterrestrial Evil race, but is solemn and dignified.

"Palace Master, the most crucial issue in transforming the Huan Continent is..."

"We are currently experiencing a shortage of Supreme Spirit Liquid."

Yang Ling, who was temporarily serving as the chief steward of the Langya Heavenly Palace, looked grim, with bloodshot eyes.

The mental strength of Advanced Spirit Array Master is undoubtedly far superior to that of Great Perfection Earthly Supreme, so normally they shouldn't be this tired.

However, the tasks following the recapture of the Huan Continent were simply overwhelming, with the remnants of the Extraterrestrial Evil race causing a major headache. The only high-level combatant, Ice Emperor, was only responsible for fighting and clearing obstacles; all other cleanup work was led by Yang Ling.

Working under ultra-high pressure made Yang Ling think that she was about to meet her Founding Ancestor.

However, Xiao Han, who was in charge of hanging streetlights, clearly didn't care about the labor force. Although the transformation work on the mainland was supposed to be completed by the four Elder working together, Tai Yun and You Ye were as cunning as foxes and did things in a lukewarm Qian Cha, while Qian Sha was a reckless man who couldn't shoulder the heavy responsibility.

After going around in circles, he's still in charge.

Are honest people just destined to be bullied?

What truly gave Yang Ling a headache was...

I'm out of money!

Even a hero can be brought down by a lack of funds. The incredibly difficult task of transforming the continent has only managed to barely complete the transformation of the five million li of land centered on Langya City after investing over two billion units of Supreme Spirit Liquid. This is in stark contrast to the nearly twenty million li expanse of the Huan Continent...

Well, it's a long story.

"How much do you need?"

His tone was quite relaxed.

Transforming the continent was extremely costly, and Xiao Han was already prepared for that. Moreover, this was not a simple transformation; there was also a process of purifying and dispelling Demonic Qi in between.

Moreover, due to his monumental achievement in reclaiming the Huan Continent, the Great Thousand Palace has specially opened a discount channel for him. Any resources used on the Huan Continent can be exchanged for with Demon Subjugation Points at a super low discount of 40%, including Supreme Spirit Liquid.

There are many obvious operational loopholes in this. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a reward that Great Thousand Palace deliberately gave to Xiao Han, allowing Xiao Han to take advantage of the Great Thousand Palace within a reasonable and legal scope.

With 100,000 Demon Subjugation Points at his disposal, he is now incredibly wealthy and powerful.

Upon hearing Xiao Han's words, the expressions of the four Elder changed slightly, and Yang Ling tremblingly extended three fingers.

"Three hundred billion?!"

Xiao Han suddenly stood up from his seat, staring in shock at the three fingers.

He had just become rich overnight and hadn't had time to discard the concept of the Supreme Spirit Liquid.

If he hadn't known the four people's background, he would have suspected that they were embezzling funds.

How much of the Heavenly Supreme's wealth would this drain?!

"Actually, this expense can be reduced."

After Xiao Han calmed down, he slowly sat back down. Yang Ling continued speaking.

"In fact, the construction of various facilities does not require much cost; the real expense is the cost of dispelling Demonic Qi."

The establishment of a typical power is nothing more than sect buildings, cultivation techniques, Spirit Artifact Divine Artifact and divine weapons, and sect formations.

Langya Heavenly Palace was originally a merger of Four Sects, and its voluntary relocation eliminated almost all problems. The only remaining issues were the need to rebuild the buildings and sect formations from Grand Array due to the relocation.

Architecture is the cheapest thing in the Great Thousand World; the most precious thing is the material.

Another major expense is the sect's magic array located in the Langya Heavenly Palace...

Hehe, the Langya Heavenly Palace has no shortage of Spirit Array Master; the only price they pay is the cost of materials.

"In many places, Demonic Qi is deeply rooted, and due to limitations in our strength, we have to invest a large amount of Supreme Spirit Liquid."

"If the Palace Master can invite a Saint Grade Heavenly Supreme to help, the cost can be reduced by at least one-third."

"Really?" Xiao Han's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked.

"Yes... yes." Yang Ling was taken aback by Xiao Han's attitude.

In truth, he was somewhat hesitant to invite the Saint Grade Heavenly Supreme, since the Saint Grade were a small group of people who truly stood at the pinnacle of the Great Thousand World, and Xiao Han's rise to power was still relatively recent, so he might not necessarily know such a powerful figure.

"Leave the matter of the Saint Grade Heavenly Supreme to me."

Yang Ling's suggestion made Xiao Han overjoyed, as he had just met a Saint Grade Heavenly Supreme.

After learning that he had reclaimed the Huan Continent, Old Man Tian Mu greatly praised him and left him a Communication Jade Talisman before his departure, saying that he could contact him if anything happened on the Huan Continent.

This was a prediction made by a veteran!

Xiao Han's words stunned everyone, but Yang Ling quickly recovered and replied, "Yes!"

"Leave those difficult parts for now; I'll ask my seniors to handle them after the Great War."

"Yes!"

The group answered with great conviction, secretly relieved that they had found the right leader this time.
