What brings you here?

"Huh, did another Human Sovereign open the passage?"

Jiang Kingdom Fang Weiyan looked up into the distance and could sense a crimson pillar of light rising into the sky.

Although I didn't see it, I definitely felt it.

It's strange, why haven't the other Human Sovereign made any moves?

Fang Weiyan was somewhat puzzled. Now that the passage was about to open, why were the other Human Sovereign still not making any moves?

If it weren't for the fact that a Human Sovereign had also opened the passage, Fang Weiyan would have thought he'd been tricked.

This passage didn't actually need to be opened at all; someone tricked me into opening it.

However, since a Human Sovereign has already opened the passage, it seems the passage is indeed going to open.

After figuring this out, Fang Weiyan felt slightly relieved.

"Your Majesty, we have allocated a considerable amount of cement from various regions, but this means that some infrastructure projects in various counties and prefectures will have to be halted."

The Minister of Ministry of Works approached Fang Weiyan and hurriedly reported the situation.

The situation inside the passage was more serious than Fang Weiyan had anticipated.

Because the passageway was so vast, the corresponding city to be built also needed to be greatly expanded.

As a result, there wasn't enough cement.

After learning about the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, they had already started stockpiling some cement.

However, the production here is clearly not keeping up.

We also need to carry out some infrastructure construction during normal times.

Cement production cannot keep up with demand, so naturally there is less cement stockpiled.

Other counties also have cement plants, but their output is currently... well, let's just say it's not that great.

Fang Weiyan waved his hand upon hearing this, "I understand. I will find a way to handle this, so there's no need to transfer supplies from other counties for the time being."

It's still unknown when those sinister forces will gather, Fang Weiyan feels that the construction of the city should not be delayed.

It's too slow to source cement from other places; it's better to just buy some directly from Earth.

It's just a matter of spending some money.

After giving his instructions, Fang Weiyan quickly returned to Earth.

Back on Earth, he had already acquired a cement factory, but the current production seemed to be lagging behind. Fang Weiyan directly contacted the factory manager and asked him to arrange for some cement to be transferred over.

Factories like these usually have connections with each other, and if production capacity can't keep up, they can allocate resources to each other.

Upon hearing the boss's instructions, the factory manager immediately nodded in agreement and got down to work.

The boss is rarely at the factory, but he never misses paying wages.

In addition, since the new boss took over, there has been a significant increase in overtime production, but the overtime pay is substantial, and he also gives out generous bonuses during holidays.

Because of this, the factory workers are much more enthusiastic about their work than before.

After the person in charge contacted me, I quickly received a definite answer.

The first batch of cement is expected to arrive by noon tomorrow; Fang Weiyan can simply go and receive it then.

Upon seeing that the other Fang Weiyan immediately responded and then hurriedly returned to the Jiang Kingdom.

The situation on the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings is still unknown, Fang Weiyan needs to focus all his attention on this side.

Weiwei and the other Mountain Spirit Clan have already gone inside, and so far no other news has come back, so they should be fine for now.

"My lord, shall I go and take a look as well?"

Seeing that Fang Weiyan was so busy with the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings that he barely had time to breathe, Yunxi came up to Fang Weiyan and whispered something.

Her strength isn't too weak either; if possible, she could go in and lend a hand.

Upon hearing this, Fang Weiyan turned to look at Yunxi, and immediately shook his head upon seeing her current cultivation level. "No need for now. Don't be too nervous. I'm only busy right now to prepare."

"I still don't fully understand what's inside the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, but it's always good to be prepared."

Fang Weiyan noticed Yunxi's worry and immediately offered some words of comfort.

It was clear that Yunxi was somewhat worried.

Upon hearing this, Yunxi's worries lessened considerably. After seeing how Fang Weiyan was constantly gathering supplies from various places after the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings opened, she was indeed somewhat concerned.

Since Fang Weiyan has said so, the situation shouldn't be too bad.

"To be honest, I don't know why, but after the passage opened, I felt like things were a little better."

Yunxi paused for a moment, then brought up another matter.

Fang Weiyan didn't find anything strange about this, as Weiwei had already mentioned it before.

After the passage is opened, the strength of Yin God and similar entities will experience a slight increase.

But that's about it.

It's just a small increase; it doesn't change anything.

Fang Weiyan was busy with various allocation issues in the palace.

At this moment, in this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings...

Lin Liyun and his team have already begun their stationing duties, and after securing the surrounding area, they can ensure that the craftsmen in the rear can focus on building the city walls.

In just one day, the surrounding city walls had already taken shape.

It's clear that these craftsmen work extremely hard and are very skilled at it.

While they were on guard around the area, quite a distance away, countless corpses and skeletons were slowly crawling out of the ground.

The corpses were all in various shapes and sizes, some of them just randomly pieced together, and it was easy to tell at a glance.

Those like this generally lack real strength and can only move around by controlling these skeletons.

As the ground began to churn in countless places, moments later, countless skeletons were seen crawling out of the ground.

Then these skeletons stood still, and countless amounts of Yin Qi began to be absorbed into their bodies.

Then, tiny green flames began to emerge from the eyes of some of the rotting skulls, as if they had suddenly gained sentience.

A moment later, a man in armor suddenly appeared in the sky, looking down at the countless mixed skeletons below.

The armored man's face was cold, but he didn't make any unnecessary movements; he simply waited quietly.

About half an hour later, the countless corpses below finally stirred.

With a loud crash, countless corpses below knelt down in a heap, creating a tremendous commotion.

The armored man above, seeing the scene below, finally stirred.

"The king has ordered an assault on the passage, day and night!"

The man's voice fell, and its powerful resonance spread far and wide.

The countless corpses below, unable to speak, responded to the command with only wild, beast-like howls.

Upon hearing the response, the man flew away to the next location to continue spreading his orders.

These minions will need some time to recover after absorbing enough Yin Qi, and then they will begin their assault on the passage.

He knew this was a necessary stage.

After he left, countless Yin Qi began to gather here, eventually turning the place into a gloomy and overcast area.

Valley Tears

The centurion held his weapon, looking into the distance with a hint of doubt in his eyes. He seemed to have heard some roars just now.

Is it just my imagination?

Baihu found it strange, but after looking carefully ahead, he didn't see anything unusual.

Lin Liyun noticed his subordinate's actions and immediately frowned. "Be careful, this place is quite dangerous."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing this, the centurion's expression immediately turned serious, and he hurriedly nodded.

"Just now, I think I heard some noise ahead."

Baihu explained the sound he had just heard.

movement?

Upon hearing this, Lin Liyun frowned, immediately took out his binoculars, and looked ahead.

All that met the eye was desolation; nothing seemed amiss.

Lin Liyun looked around to make sure there was nothing unusual, then turned to his subordinate and asked, "Are you sure you heard anything?"

Upon hearing the question, the centurion hesitated for a moment, then, recalling the sound he had just heard, his expression became absolutely certain. "I'm sure, I did indeed hear a noise!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Liyun immediately nodded. This place was indeed somewhat eerie, and the Emperor had personally given instructions many times before.

Therefore, upon hearing his subordinates say this, Lin Liyun dared not be negligent.

Even though he didn't see anything, he still trusted his subordinates.

He knew his subordinates very well; they were definitely not the kind of people who would falsify military intelligence.

Lin Liyun hurriedly walked back for a moment, and then saw Weiwei in front of him.

Upon seeing Weiwei, Lin Liyun's expression became much more respectful.

The Emperor had previously instructed that if they encountered any difficult enemies, they should inform the other party.

Lin Liyun approached Weiwei, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "My lord, my scouts heard some strange noises ahead, and we don't know what caused them. They are feeling uneasy, so I came to report to you. I wonder how we should deal with this?"

Weiwei was looking at the craftsmen building the city wall around her when she heard the sound and turned around to look at Lin Liyun.

Hearing Lin Liyun's words, Weiwei pondered for a moment, then reassured him, "It's alright. It's probably just some sinister forces awakening. We'll have to fight these guys sooner or later, but the time isn't right yet. They'll only come after they've fully awakened."

Weiwei was quite familiar with the situation here, and upon hearing this, she immediately understood what was going on.

I knew it in my heart, so I didn't take it to heart.

Upon hearing this, Lin Liyun was immediately relieved; if that was the case, then everything was fine.

"Yes, I understand."

Lin Liyun responded and then stepped back.

Seeing this, Weiwei didn't say anything more.

"This Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, though I've never been here before, is no easy place to deal with. I'm afraid a great battle is about to begin."

Another Mountain Spirit leaned over and whispered.

Upon hearing this, Weiwei nodded in agreement. The things in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings were inherently strange, immortal and indestructible.

Extremely difficult to deal with.

Engaging in a prolonged fight here would definitely lead to serious trouble for our side.

"Although it is quite dangerous, His Majesty's preparations are very thorough, so there shouldn't be any major problems."

As Weiwei spoke, she glanced at the craftsmen beside her.

Her meaning was very clear: judging from the work of these craftsmen, the basic structure of the city had already taken shape in such a short time.

I reckon it won't be long before the entire city is built.

In addition, the soldiers that the emperor prepared also seemed to be quite extraordinary.

She felt that there shouldn't be any problems with this major battle.

The tribesman standing nearby paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded. "Let's hope so."

At this moment, she still felt a trace of worry.

In this Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, she didn't know why, but she always felt uneasy.

You must know, she was a master of the Flower Blooming Realm, yet she felt so uneasy at this moment.

I don't know why.

Because of the events in the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings, Fang Weiyan is currently extremely busy.

Not a single piece of cement ordered from the other side of Earth was missed; it was all transported to the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings.

Gasoline and gas cylinders were also prepared.

I don't know if these things will actually work, but I'm going to use them anyway.

While Fang Weiyan was busy, some news also came from the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings.

It is said that recently, strange noises have been frequently heard near the passage.

Weiwei explained that this was a signal from something within the Land of Ten Thousand Witherings that was about to attack.

The more frequent these sounds become, the more it indicates that the other side is about to attack.

After learning of this news, Fang Weiyan mobilized resources even faster.

On this day, while Fang Weiyan was in the palace, an uninvited guest arrived outside.

"Has a Yin God arrived?"

Upon hearing the news reported by the guard, Fang Weiyan immediately frowned.

If it's not Yin God from your own country, then it must be from another country.

Why were Yin God from other countries sent to the Jiang Kingdom?

Fang Weiyan was puzzled, but after thinking about it, he still had someone bring him in.

A moment later, Fang Weiyan saw the Yin God. Perhaps because he was in a hurry, the spirit's figure appeared somewhat illusory.

It's probably because they overused the Power of Incense Offerings.

Who are you?

Fang Weiyan looked at the Yin God in front of him and, after confirming that it was not Yin God from the Jiang Kingdom, frowned and looked at it with some curiosity.

"Your subject, a subject of Empress Wanxi."

Upon seeing Fang Weiyan, the Yin God immediately bowed and then introduced himself.

Empress Wanxi?

Fang Weiyan frowned upon hearing this form of address, but after thinking carefully, he couldn't recall it.

That makes sense, though. He's not very familiar with other dynasties right now, so it's normal that he hasn't heard of them.

There's nothing to be surprised about.

What brings you here?

Upon seeing that the other Fang Weiyan immediately got straight to the point.
