"Landfall!"

The Middle-Aged Man and the young Builder exchanged a glance, both seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.

This way, please.

"I'll lead the way!"

The Guandong Plains and the West Pass Plains.

They are two vast plains, either of which combined is larger than the combined area of Four Regions of Jiangbei. The two plains are separated by an Abandoned Defense Line.

This defensive line is called "Wraith-Suppressing Pass".

It is 237 kilometers long.

Long abandoned, a winding City Wall, which can be described as Heavenly Chasm, has stood on the plain for who knows how long.

The City Wall have almost completely collapsed, leaving only ruins.

It has almost lost its defensive effectiveness.

The "Guandong Plains" is often referred to as "within the pass".

The "West Pass Plains" is referred to as the area outside the pass.

Just as people in Kansai look down on people in Jiangbei, people in Eastern Pass look down on people outside the pass.

Guandong Plains lies the West Pass Plains.

North of the West Pass Plains lies the Jiangnan.

Further north from Jiangnan, you arrive at Jiangbei.

That is, the Headquarters of the Mortal Domain.

Jiangbei has been developing rapidly in recent days, which has also driven the development of the Four Regions of Jiangbei. The trade in the Four Regions of Jiangbei, which was originally inconvenient due to the obstruction of a Great River, has become extremely active in recent days because of the opening of the Mortal Domain High-Speed Rail.

It's not just some smaller forces.

Even some poor people can take the High-Speed Rail to the south of the Jiangnan and find a job with a decent monthly salary.

Only.

With the completion of the High-Speed Rail.

This has also brought about considerable impact.

For example, one

Many people in Jiangnan started cursing. When those outsiders came to Jiangnan, their first words were always, "Sir, no matter how much you pay the people from Jiangnan, my monthly salary will always be one Eerie Stone than theirs."

Therefore.

The direct impact is that the monthly wages in Jiangnan, which were originally slightly higher than those in other regions, have now dropped rapidly until they are on par with other regions.

This somewhat curbed the impact of a large-scale migration of people to the Jiangnan.

People from Jiangnan who were originally living comfortably were forced to accept the same monthly income as people from other regions.

The various factions in Jiangnan were all smiles.

The job content is the same as before, but the labor costs are much lower, so I'm naturally happy.

Especially "Medicine King Valley".

Medicine King Valley is now thriving, with its Pills almost all over the four regions of Jiangnan. With lower prices and better Pills, it has nearly monopolized the entire Pills market in the Four Regions of Jiangbei.

This forced other Alchemy factions to transform themselves, or become Alchemy Workshop of "Medicine King Valley".

Yes.

Medicine King Valley offered them a condition.

"Retain the original organizational structure."

"Acknowledge autonomy."

"We'll give them a lot of orders every month so they can still earn Eerie Stone."

Although I don't earn as much as before.

However, it's much easier; there's no need to worry about the market anymore, just focus on Alchemy Pills. And once you've refined them, there's no need to worry about selling them, Medicine King Valley will buy them all.

Only.

An additional inspection procedure has been added.

Previously, all the substandard Pills that could have entered the market were screened out.

Today, the Four Regions of Jiangbei.

There is only one Alchemy faction.

"Medicine King Valley".

With an almost reckless fighting style, they burned a large number of Eerie Stone in just a few months, which made Medicine King Valley famous. Now, almost all forces and Rogue Cultivator who need Pills consider Medicine King Valley as their first choice when purchasing Pills.

That's not all.

By purchasing a single Pills from Medicine King Valley, customers earn points, which can be redeemed for various Rare treasures, further maintaining customer loyalty. The Mortal Domain is developing at an extremely rapid pace.

Mortal Domain has also spurred the rapid development of many other forces.

"Father."

Qi Feng, the young master of Medicine King Valley, put down the "Mortal Domain Bulletin" in his hand and couldn't help but laugh, "The Jiangnan Furnace Fire Sect, an Artifact Refining force that was once on par with our Medicine King Valley."

"They've been copying us these days, using low prices to seize the market."

"But"

"They seem to have gone too far. All the shops are no longer able to stay afloat. The sect leader of the Furnace Fire Sect has already started selling off his assets. Otherwise, let alone the development of their power, they might not even survive this year's Rainy Season."

"Tsk."

The Medicine King Valley Master was already quite old, but as the saying goes, good things make people feel refreshed. These days, he seemed to be experiencing a final burst of energy, his face glowing with health, and his laughter could be heard from afar.

Upon hearing this, he smiled broadly and stroked his beard.

Those who learn from me will thrive.

Those who resemble me will perish.

"They only saw the surface."

"By the way"

"Didn't we promise the Mortal Domain that we would hand over 15% of our profits? Now that a quarter has passed, you will personally lead a team to deliver this quarter's profits to the Mortal Domain, and bring the account books with you as well."

"As long as the Mortal Domain stands, no one will dare to touch my Medicine King Valley."

Massive profits require strong capabilities to protect them.

Just like a mischievous child carrying Exotic Treasure walking through a bustling city, the Exotic Treasure will disappear in less than three steps. As for whether the child's life can be saved, it depends on whether the perpetrator is kind or not.

With the strength of Medicine King Valley, it is impossible to keep such wealth.

It takes time for wealth to transform into substance.

But with the protection of the Mortal Domain, no one dared to touch them.

"Good."

Qi Feng laughed, "Domain Lord Chen probably can't guess how many Eerie Stone we've earned in these three months. Even if it's only 15% of the net profit, that's still a full 320,000 Eerie Stone."

"Perhaps Domain Lord Chen will be quite surprised by this."

"Monopoly is still too profitable."

The Medicine King Valley Master remarked with some emotion, "This is just the beginning. As the market fully opens up, future profits will increase, but it's probably not enough to surprise the Mortal Domain."

"The High-Speed Rail in the Mortal Domain is always packed, running day and night between the Four Regions of Jiangbei."

"They're making a fortune every day."

"The number of Eerie Stone I earn in a day is probably more than that."

"Before this, I had no idea that ordinary people actually had a demand for 'tourism'."

Yes.

Besides the Pills market, Medicine King Valley has recently developed a scenic area centered around the "Gold-Swallowing Toad." Ordinary people have never even heard of Exotic Beast, let alone seen it, and the area is now bustling with visitors.

The public sentiment is rather pessimistic.

Too many people have died around here.

Too many of my friends and family members have died.

Nobody knows if they can survive the next Rainy Season.

The few Eerie Stone in their pockets weren't enough for them to become Cultivator, nor were they enough to buy a building—they weren't enough for anything. Rather than being unable to resist this world, they might as well experience it to the fullest before they died.

There was no opportunity before.

Now we have it.

Then.

The moment the High-Speed Rail officially began operation, many people chose to travel and enjoy the scenery, to see places they could never have visited before, to see what the legendary "Dead Sea" really looks like, and to see what other parts of the world look like.

So.

Even if I die in the next Rainy Season.

At least, you'll have fewer regrets before you die.

It was worth it.

Of course, the most uninhibited in this regard was the "Gongyang Clan." In the past, there was an unwritten rule among the various forces in the Four Regions of Jiangbei: when a force raised the "Death Banner," anyone who dared to provoke that force would inevitably face the frenzied retaliation of its Family. Every time a force raised the Death Banner, it would attract the attention of countless other forces.

It was exceptionally imposing.

Qi Feng's greatest dream was to be able to go out and make a grand entrance, carrying the Death Banner of Medicine King Valley.

In previous years.

The story of Gongyang from Jiangnan carrying a flag for Gongyang Baili to rescue his wife has become a local legend.

In the past few months, the Death Banner of the "Gongyang Clan" have appeared quite frequently in various parts of Jiangnan. The Gongyang Clan has launched a new service called "Death Banner Experience". Those who sign up can pay a certain Eerie Stone to follow behind the Gongyang Clan's Death Banner on a business trip and experience this kind of prestige. There are quite a few people willing to pay.

Although this would reduce the credibility of the "Death Banner" of the Gongyang Clan.

But.

Nobody cared.

The Gongyang Clan will no longer need to raise the Death Banner.

Everyone knows this.

Gongyang Yue, the only daughter of the Gongyang Clan Family Head, is married to Qi Yue of the Mortal Domain. They will be married soon, making them practically half in-laws in the Mortal Domain. Naturally, no one dares to provoke them.

In the past, the various factions in Jiangnan valued face very much.

But this coincided with the rise of the Mortal Domain.

The legendary Exotic Beast that is the ancestral guardian of Medicine King Valley is brought out for public viewing.

The Death Banner of the Gongyang Clan fluttered wildly across the Wasteland.

This kind of face...

It was gradually abandoned.

As long as you can earn Eerie Stone, what's the point of saving face?

Not just in the Mortal Domain.

Many forces in the Four Regions of Jiangbei are taking advantage of the rise of the Mortal Domain to develop rapidly. Of course, in this process, it is inevitable that a large number of forces will not be able to keep up and will be eliminated.

Hope Island.

On this Island, far out at sea, thousands of miles away from the Mortal Domain.

This is a very large Island.

Night gradually fell.

Chen Fan emerged from the High-Speed Rail exit and walked with Weiwei into the temporary Camp built on the beach. They had built a new exit on the beach, whereas the original High-Speed Rail exit was on the mountaintop, requiring them to go down the mountain every time, which was quite troublesome.

This makeshift Camp was quite rudimentary.

There were only four City Wall, each thirty meters high.

The City Wall are all Level-3 City Wall, and each City Wall is equipped with 3 Level-10 Godslayer Cannon.

The Camp contains Eerie Fire, Wooden Hut, and other structures.

Though small, the sparrow has all its vital organs.

"Call"

Chen Fan sat on the City Wall, leaning back in his chair, looking at the horizon. His thoughts drifted away. He and Weiwei had spent the whole day repairing the Undersea Tunnel, but they were still a long way from the "Thunderstorm Sea".

To open Undersea Tunnel to the "New Continent".

It will probably take another two months.

This is the normal situation; however, if any unexpected events occur along the way, that would be a different story.

It was getting dark.

But the Eternal Night has not yet fully descended.

He could vaguely see the "Thunderstorm Sea" in the distance, which seemed like a Heavenly Chasm barrier, with no end in sight, almost isolating the entire world. Just as King Mazi had said, their fleet had sailed along the Thunderstorm Sea for a full month without seeing the end.

Finally, gritting his teeth and with a death wish, he charged into the Thunderstorm Sea.

They managed to survive and escape this Sea Domain.

Although he could see the "Thunderstorm Sea" in the distance, he could only vaguely make out its outline, the extremely low and thick black clouds, and the lightning that kept flashing through the black clouds, as if it would never stop.

According to King Mazi.

The Thunderstorm Sea is teeming with Strange Entities, floating on the surface of the water. Moreover, they don't appear at night; before dark, the Strange Entities in the sea surge and churn like Dumplings in a pot.

This was the first time they had discovered Strange Entities before the Eternal Night had even fallen.

Even the Doppelganger Wraith can only appear at Dusk.

"Young Master."

The Crippled Monkey, equally exhausted from a day's work, sat beside him, brewed him a pot of tea, and followed Chen Fan's gaze towards the distant "Thunderstorm Sea," hesitatingly asking, "What do you say?"

"Could this Thunderstorm Sea engulf the entire Eternal Night Continent?"

"That's possible."

Chen Fan nodded slightly; the possibility was actually not small.

"That."

The Crippled Monkey paused for a moment before continuing, "According to King Mazi, the Strange Entities in the Thunderstorm Sea are all in extreme pain, as if they are enduring torture."

"Could it be that this 'Thunderstorm Sea' is a protective barrier for the Eternal Night Continent, protecting it and preventing other Strange Entities from rushing into the Thunderstorm Sea?"

"For example"

Where did those Strange Entities that slaughtered the New Continent go?

"Is it possible that they were caught in the Thunderstorm Sea on their way to the Eternal Night Continent and are temporarily imprisoned there, unable to reach the Eternal Night Continent?"

"Possibly."

Chen Fan nodded slightly again. He knew too little information, and anything was possible. The Crippled Monkey's guess was possible, or it was possible that there were deserters in the "Strange Tide" who didn't want to attack the Eternal Night Continent anymore and wanted to escape, but they went into the Thunderstorm Sea on their way out and were trapped inside, tormented day and night. Anything was possible.

The only thing he knew was...

The Eternal Night Continent is in grave danger, and the situation is not good. This can be seen from the fact that no one has come to Jiangbei for so long. "That One" has left, and the Northbank Defense Line is unguarded.

So much time has passed, and yet no one has come to check.

This proves that the situation at the Frontline was extremely critical, and the rear was in grave danger, so they couldn't afford to worry about it anymore.

At this time.

He cannot place his hopes on anyone.

He can only rely on himself.

While holding back the Northbank Defense Line on his own, he also built a large-scale and highly secure shelter in Jiangbei to protect his safety in the Eternal Night, ensuring his survival no matter what happens in the future.

And all of this is predicated on what he is doing right now.

He needs those Eerie Stones from the New Continent.

It is absolutely necessary.

"That's not right either."

The Crippled Monkey muttered to himself, "If they were the Strange Entities from the New Continent who were planning to attack the Eternal Night Continent are now trapped in the Thunderstorm Sea, they should at least have taken the Eerie Stone with them when they left."

"There's no need to General Strange stones scattered there."

"What exactly is that Thunderstorm Sea? And how did this Forbidden Land come about?"

Chen Fan sat down, picked up a cup of scalding hot tea, took a small sip, and then gazed at the "Thunderstorm Sea" gradually shrouded in darkness. He had a thought about building a "Sky-Piercing Pillar" within the Thunderstorm Sea.

A long time ago.

A Builder who died in battle on the ancient "Northbank Defense Line" was known as the "Undying Celestial Master".

He died without fully comprehending the blueprint for the Yellow Grade "Sky-Piercing Pillar" Building Blueprint.

After he got his hands on it...

It has been created.

A giant lightning rod that can absorb lightning and release it in times of crisis to defend against enemies.

Unfortunately, after the Rainy Season ended, although Jiangbei experienced several rain showers, none of them were the kind of Torrential Rain with thunder and lightning, so the absorption progress was almost zero. But if... a Sky-Piercing Pillar were built on the "Thunderstorm Sea".

Given the lightning and thunder in the Thunderstorm Sea, it's estimated that the absorption progress will be completed in less than the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.

Only.

It's highly likely that the Sky-Piercing Pillar couldn't withstand such intense lightning and would be directly destroyed. After all, it's Forbidden Land that can block countless Strange Entities. I wonder how King Mazi managed to get through it back then.

It's still a back-and-forth process.

He was somewhat hesitant to give it a try.

This idea is worth trying.

But to build a Sky-Piercing Pillar in the Thunderstorm Sea, let alone how to get there, who would dare to go there? And where to place it after getting there is also a problem. You can't build it on the sea surface, can you? You can barely build it underground, but it won't be able to absorb lightning.

That Sky-Piercing Pillar was hundreds of meters high.

Leaving aside whether it's even possible to build it on Sea Ship, even if it were, the day it's successfully built would likely be the day the Sea Ship sinks to the Seabed of the sea. Time just keeps passing by.

Soon.

Nearly three months later.

It is now the end of August in the 379th year of the "Eternal Night Calendar". The sweltering heat has arrived. Half a year has passed since the Slaying the Wraith King in the Mortal Domain. A new Rainy Season is about to begin.

The progress of the Undersea Tunnel is much slower than they expected.

Seabed.

Weiwei, panting heavily, continued digging through the rocks deep in the Seabed. Chen Fan, with a heavy expression, sat closely behind on the High-Speed Rail, setting up Copper Pipe. The digging speed was many times slower than before.

The geology here is extremely hard.

Even with the Weiwei method, the digging is extremely slow.

The hardest rock they had ever encountered was on "Nameless Mountain," but while they could easily carve out large sections of that mountain with Weiwei claws, this place proved extremely difficult.

Where they are now.

It is located directly beneath the Seabed of the "Thunderstorm Sea".

They are attempting to smuggle themselves across from the Seabed, trying to bypass this place, which is absolutely Forbidden Land to both humans and Strange Entities. The rocks beneath the Seabed in the Thunderstorm Sea are extremely hard.

The excavation speed naturally slowed down.

The most important thing is

"Stop."

Chen Fan suddenly let out a low shout, and Weiwei instantly stopped its front paws. Behind the excavated rock wall in front of them, countless white lines emitting a faint light appeared on the wall.

Those are Formation Vein Patterns.

They've encountered many along the way.

The solution is to go around it.

Weiwei Proficiency changed direction, trying to avoid the Formation as much as possible.

The "Undersea Tunnel" behind us is not perfectly straight, but rather winding and twisting.

Hidden deep within the rocks at the bottom of the Seabed in the "Thunderstorm Sea" are countless Formation, none of Formation are large, far smaller than the "Blood Sacrifice Formation" that the Wraith King broke through to.

It's about ten meters wide.

But the number is extremely large.

You encounter one almost every time you dig a certain distance.

He asked, "Weiwei?"

Weiwei has unique methods for Formation Break formations. Well, actually, they're not really unique. Weiwei Formation can be smashed with a single claw and then swallowed whole.

For example, the Formation set up by the "Undying Celestial Master" in order to leave behind a legacy.

Weiwei, they say it can be broken.

However, it will take a considerable amount of time.

Then.

He chose to take a detour, not to save time, but because the Grand Array, which even Weiwei couldn't break, was definitely not a low-level Formation. Perhaps the "Thunderstorm Sea" really was protecting the Eternal Night Continent.

He destroyed the Formation.

The system is unavailable in the Thunderstorm Sea.

A large number of imprisoned Strange Entities poured into the Eternal Night Continent. His Northbank Defense Line was not yet completed, and he could not afford the consequences.

Regardless of the effect of this Formation.

It's best not to cause any damage for now.

He was somewhat curious.

However, he was able to suppress his curiosity and had no intention of risking his life to see what would happen if he destroyed these Formation. Therefore...

The Undersea Tunnel beneath the "Thunderstorm Sea" was extremely difficult to excavate, consuming a significant amount of their time. It can be said that two-thirds of the three months of excavation work were wasted here.

Fortunately.

They are about to excavate the "Thunderstorm Sea" and will be able to leave this area soon.

"Continue."

Chen Fan's eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was hoarse as he stared intently at the Ghosthide Map in his hand and continued to give orders. In order to meet the deadline, he had hardly slept for the past few months.

Time is running out.

Exploring the New Continent and collecting the Eerie Stone will take a considerable amount of time.

He must return to Jiangbei once more to open up Trade Route to the West Pass Plains, so he can acquire more Exotic Treasure materials and higher-grade Building Blueprint. There are only three and a half years left until the Four-Year Pact.

It's better to be early than late.

It's impossible to build the Northbank Defense Line in the fourth year. Completing it sooner would provide a greater sense of security, allowing for more flexibility in constructing supporting buildings and recruiting more manpower.

Just then...

Suddenly Weiwei stumbled, losing control and crashing heavily into the front of the Tunnel. He was stunned for a moment, but quickly turned around excitedly and let out a low growl at Chen Fan.

"Well done, Weiwei."

Chen Fan laughed.

The rocks ahead were finally less hard, which meant they had left the "Thunderstorm Sea" and officially arrived in the Sea Domain of the New Continent. He looked at the Ghosthide Map in his hand.

Hundreds of white dots of varying sizes appeared above, symbolizing countless Island. In addition, there was one huge white dot. That white dot was the New Continent.

They arrived.

They successfully crossed the Forbidden Land "Thunderstorm Sea," proceeding cautiously in a manner akin to smuggling. He took out Storage Ring from his pocket, had Weiwei vomit all the rocks from its stomach into the Storage Ring Thunderstorm Sea, and then placed the Storage Ring back on the High-Speed Rail behind him, letting it return to Hope Island so that the Crippled Monkey could clean it up and return the Storage Ring.

This Storage Ring helped him a lot.

There is no such Storage Ring.

Earthwork is very difficult to handle.

"Crippled Monkey."

Chen Fan took out Message Talisman from his pocket and Crippled Monkey on Hope Island: "The rocks in this Storage Ring are all from the Thunderstorm Sea, and they're stored in the Warehouse on the Island, along with the Thunderstorm Sea we dug out a few days ago."

He built a Warehouse specifically for his temporary Camp on Hope Island.

Used to store these rocks dredged from the Seabed in the Thunderstorm Sea.

Such solid rock.

Although his panel showed that it wasn't some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, anything special must be good. He should collect it first; it might come in handy later.

"Set off!"

After doing all this, he grinned, looked at the Ghosthide Map, and pointed ahead: "Dig straight for the New Continent, skipping the other Island." "Land!"

King Mazi and his companions did not personally set foot on this New Continent.

Based solely on the situation on several Island, King Mazi deduced that this New Continent might have been completely wiped out, but he didn't know the specifics. He was the first human to set foot on this New Continent.

Or rather...

The first humans to set foot on this New Continent after the New Continent destruction.

Finally

It took another month.

The time has come to the end of September in the "Eternal Night Calendar" 379.

The Tunnel suddenly rose sharply at a 90-degree vertical angle, transforming from Tunnel into a "deep well".

Weiwei, hey, you're a natural-born digger!

Even if you have to dig upwards from underground.

By attaching their hind legs and thick tail to the sides of the deep well, they can also fix themselves in mid-air, thus enabling them to dig quickly.

It pawed with its front paws.

His mouth opened wide.

The deep well then extends a further distance towards the surface.

Finally!

"Boom"

When the soil cracked and the long-awaited sunlight shone through, Chen Fan emerged from the ground. Before he could even observe his surroundings, he was already out of the ground.

Almost in the blink of an eye.

In an instant, an Eerie Fire was set up, and a City Wall measuring 10 meters on each side rose from the ground!

The City Wall's level has reached an absurdly high level 6.

Currently, there isn't a single City Wall in the Mortal Domain that is entirely level 6.

With City Wall of this caliber, even the Wraith King's full-force attack would only scratch the surface.

Building a Level-6 City Wall requires a full 8,560 Eerie Stone. These four City Wall consumed more than 340,000 Eerie Stone of his. The four 30-meter-high City Wall that rose from the ground almost instantly blocked his view.

The cost was not low.

But he felt absolutely no pity.

He even stood in the center of the Camp again, looking around the City Wall, and quickly built a total of twenty max-level Godslayer Cannon Tower on top of the City Wall! After doing all this...

He held his breath and listened patiently. Outside the City Wall, there was only the rustling of the wind; otherwise, it was extremely quiet and there was no movement at all. He looked down at the area he had marked out within the Camp.

It was filled with Ghost Bone and scattered Eerie Stone.

No one picked it up.

Exposed to wind and sun, weathered and worn.

After listening patiently for a while and confirming that there was no other noise, he took Weiwei and climbed onto the City Wall.

Standing on the City Wall.

Chen Fan gripped the Parapet with both hands, looking down into the distance, letting the damp, salty sea breeze wash over him. His body gradually stiffened, his eyes filled with awe.

I couldn't calm down for a long time.

He murmured after a long while.

"How many people will die from this?"

He was on the edge of the New Continent, on a beach devoid of sand, composed of oddly shaped reefs.

The end of the continent is not visible.

The landing site is a plain, without mountains or jungles, an unobstructed Wasteland, the terrain of which is very similar to the "Jiangbei Wasteland".

It's just that there's now a Nameless Mountain Jiangbei.

At a glance.

The ground was littered with Ghost Bone and Eerie Stone, which tumbled in the wind from time to time. These were originally the corpses of Strange Entities, but over time they had turned into Ghost Bone.

Occasionally, a gust of wind blows up a patch of sand in the Wasteland, revealing the "Ghost Bone" hidden beneath.

It's easy to imagine.

Not only on the surface, but also underground, there may be even more Ghost Bone and Eerie Stone buried.

In addition to one

His gaze lingered on the Wasteland, on the numerous defensive lines that stretched as far as the eye could see—seven in total.

Each defensive line is less than 100 meters apart.

They were almost touching.

Certainly.

By this time, the City Wall along these defensive lines had long since collapsed, and their former glory could only be inferred from the ruins of today. His gaze lingered on hundreds of enormous "Ghost Bone."

The City Wall he was standing on was Level-6 City Wall.

Thirty meters high.

It is already extremely magnificent.

Even after they died, those enormous Ghost Bone, with their bodies collapsed on the ground, were still several meters high. One can imagine that in their normal state, they would be tens of meters high.

This highly Strange Entities led a group of other Strange Entities in an attack.

Let's put aside the question of its power.

They've already taken the lead in terms of psychological deterrence alone.

Chen Fan stood on the City Wall with a complicated expression, looking down at the scene before him. He had personally witnessed the final chapter of the ancient "Northbank Defense Line." He had seen it in the Jade Slip left behind by the Undying Celestial Master.

That was the most brutal war he had ever seen.

It was also the largest Strange Tide I had ever seen.

It was larger than the "Strange Tide" he had experienced during the Rainy Season, but he had not seen such enormous Strange Entities on that battlefield. One can imagine.

The battles fought here were far more brutal than those fought on the Primordial Jiangbei Defense Line.

Seven defensive lines stretching for hundreds of miles.

Using the earth as a canvas and the City Wall as ink, a brutal battlefield stretching for hundreds of miles was constructed.

How many years have passed?

Three thousand years?

Five thousand years?

Nobody knows.

The wind and sand have erased all information about this continent, and also wiped away all traces of blood.

One could vaguely see that along the seven defensive lines, every mile there was a ruin of a fortress the size of a hill, but all of them had been destroyed, and one could only roughly estimate their original size from the ruins.

Chen Fan, with Weiwei, walked out of the City Wall, leaning on his Jadeite Staff, and headed towards the nearest line of defense, stepping over countless Ghost Bones to stand on the ruins of the City Wall. The City Wall was extremely wide.

The ruins show that the City Wall was at least thirty meters wide.

Thirty meters wide

The Level-6 City Wall behind him was ten meters wide, wide enough for a horse -City Wall Horse-Drawn Carriage to run on. He didn't know what City Wall a thirty-meter-wide City Wall was, but he figured it must be higher than a Level-6 City Wall.

It could be Level-8 City Wall, or even Level-9 City Wall.

He looked down at the shattered wreckage at his feet. It was the remains of a Cannon Tower. He couldn't make out what kind of Cannon Tower, but he could see the somewhat blurred Vein Patterns on the Cannon Tower remains, which seemed to match the Vein Patterns on the ruins of the City Wall.

He walked forward.

We arrived at the highest point of the ruins of the First Defense Line.

Stand on it.

Looking back at the ruins of the Six Paths.

Within the Seven Defense Lines, numerous Ghost Bones and Eerie Stone lay scattered on the ground, while beyond the Seven Defense Lines, the Ghost Bone and Eerie Stone gradually disappeared. This was quite obvious.

The Strange Tide broke through these Seven Defense Lines and sailed unimpeded into the depths of the continent to begin its slaughter.

No one can stop these Strange Tide anymore.

He could roughly guess the level of these City Wall.

Perhaps it's level 10.

That is, a fully upgraded City Wall.

This is why we need to build seven lines of defense, instead of concentrating all resources on building one stronger line. The maximum level of the City Wall might be level 10. But if even a Level-10 City Wall can't stop the Strange Tide, then where is the hope of survival?

Or perhaps...

The conditions for upgrading the Level-10 City Wall are too demanding. The Builder of this continent not only cannot upgrade the City Wall to level 11, but they also cannot even figure out what the upgrade conditions are.

It's also possible that the resources required to upgrade the Level-11 City Wall are simply too numerous.

Regardless of the possibility.

One thing is certain.

These Seven Defense Lines are stronger than the ancient "Northbank Defense Line". If any one of these lines were placed in the position of the Primordial Jiangbei Defense Line, Jiangbei would not have fallen in Primordial Era.

But here.

Seven Defense Lines, not a single one could hold.

Weiwei followed behind, his face contorted in pain as he tried to find clean spots to step on, carefully keeping up with Chen Fan. He had thought that after all his hard work, he had finally arrived at a paradise filled with Braised Delicacies offal.

I never expected that after all this hard work, I would end up in a huge cesspool.

Why don't they dig a hole when they poop?

Urinating or defecating anywhere.

They're not particular at all.

It's alright, at least it's dried out, so it's not too disgusting.

Chen Fan stood at the edge of the ruins of the First Defense Line, gazing into the depths of the continent, eager to see the main line of defense of the Ya Dao Continent.

Not only can you obtain a large number of Eerie Stone and Exotic Treasure.

The most important thing is...

If the world can obtain some important information, then when the "Eternal Night Continent" faces its most devastating battle, the Lord can be prepared. The "Undersea Strange Tide" landing three and a half years later will not be the most devastating battle.

The most devastating battle on the Eternal Night Continent, perhaps like that on the Yazu Continent, was an endless, overwhelming Strange Tide dragons carrying black mist, fearless of death.

Endless charge.

Perhaps the moment the "Thunderstorm Sea" is unsealed will be the moment when the Eternal Night Continent faces its most devastating battle. No one knows when that day will arrive.

But the Lord will be prepared.

Is he dead or alive?

The main player went all in.

We lost, the Lord acquiesces.

They won, and the Eternal Night Continent was renamed the Mortal Domain Continent.

The master did not linger any longer, but turned back to the temporary Camp he had built, took out a telepathic communication device from his pocket, and gave a few instructions.

The message was transmitted to Hope Island via a "Signal Tower" located in the Undersea Tunnel, and then further to the Mortal Domain via another Signal Tower within the Undersea Tunnel. Orders were then issued one after another.

Upon receiving the order, Mortal Domain began to busy themselves.

Chen Fan, meanwhile, was standing inside the Camp, rapidly expanding the Camp's area. He then built a City, Thousand Meters long and wide, around the original Camp, with Level-3 City Wall City Wall.

Buildings such as "Wooden Hut," "Vehicle Workshop," and "Warehouse" rose out of thin air.

This will mainly occur within the next year and a half in this column.

They plundered every Eerie Stone, Ghost Bone, and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures on this continent.

And thoroughly explore the continent of Yazuo.

Therefore, the Lord needs to make some preparations.

High-Speed Rail is impossible to build; construction would take too long. What's needed are faster and more convenient modes of transportation. The "Skeleton Horse" is too slow. The goal is to explore the entire continent using only the Skeleton Horse.

That would require studying Marxism in the Year of the Monkey.

He needs some high-grade dragon-shaped vehicles.

Upgrading the "Vehicle Workshop" to level 6 requires the rare and precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures "Yagu Bone". This Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures is relatively Rare in the Mortal Domain, and the Mortal Domain has already acquired one.

Reaching level 7 requires rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

"Sea Embryo".

The Lord did not have it before.

Now the Lord has.

"Stand at attention!"

On Hope Island, the Crippled Monkey, his face serious and hunched, stood rooted to the spot and roared at the group of monkeys before him, "All of you, stand at attention!"

The next moment

The monkeys took small, quick steps, standing upright and neatly arranged together.

"Good."

The Crippled Monkey Manting nodded and placed a Porcelain Crock filled with Braised Delicacies in front of the Monkey King: "Take this and distribute it to your monkey subjects. Eat your fill before you go on your journey."

"Squeak, squeak"

The excited Monkey King suddenly froze on the spot, looked up at the Crippled Monkey, and a trace of fear and panic flashed in his eyes. He squeaked and squeaked.

"It's about finding a new place to perform, not about sending you on your journey."

The Crippled Monkey curled his lip. "After you've eaten, get in the car. I will be traveling with you to the New Continent, awaiting Young Master Qiu's orders."

Perhaps it's because the main character's name also contains the character for monkey.
