When the sun rose in the east the next day, Xuan Ziwen, who had spent the entire night immersed in a whole new world of technology, headed toward Mingdu Square with Huo Yuhao.
Today was the day Xu Tianyuan ascended the throne, and also the day Creation Hall officially began its research work.

The massive furnace's mission today was to have the Talisman Puppet refined by Lin Yi press a button before the masses and settle it securely over the courtyard opening, proclaiming to the entire continent that the Sun Moon Empire's soul guidance technology had been reborn in fire and grown even stronger!
It stood quietly before Creation Hall, its enormous bulk exuding the heavy, solid presence of metal, like a giant beast lying dormant, waiting to be awakened.
