The first step in rebuilding the world.
Set the boundaries first.
After Fangzhang merged in, Penglai's internal space had expanded more than tenfold. The various independent secret realms were too numerous to count, yet these spaces still retained Fangzhang's originally freeform structure. Some regions even shifted position on their own with the Spatial Tides.
When it existed alone, such changes had been one of Fangzhang's defining traits.
Now that they were preparing to establish a complete world, its spatial boundaries had to possess the most basic stable order.
