CHAPTER 911: CHAPTER 911: CONSTRUCTION OF THE VOID CASTLE

"It seems this matter must be kept secret, fortunately, not many people know about it."

Fang Jie frowned, feeling conflicted, as he realized there was no choice. At first, he thought everyone gained their Divine Country through upgrades. As it turned out, so far, only he had acquired it this way.

This method of obtaining a Divine Country completely bypassed all other requirements, and the Divine Country was exceptionally perfect.

Even the special abilities gained upon upgrading to a Divine Country were absent in the Divine Countries of other gods.

Currently, apart from himself, only Qin Lan and Qin Qing were aware of this matter, with no others in the loop. Thus, as long as he instructed these two to keep it secret, there would be no issues for now.

As for others who might speculate, as long as he avoided contact with them for a while, it should be fine.

If worse comes to worst, once he breaks through to a Middle-Level God, naturally no one will doubt it.

Fang Jie felt a bit overwhelmed, but regardless, given another opportunity, he would find a way to upgrade his Divine Domain. With each upgrade, his strength would continually increase.

The greatest benefit the Divine Country brought him was the enhancement of foundation and potential.

It wasn’t immediately apparent, but the earlier one acquires a Divine Country, the more foundation one accumulates, and the greater potential boost one receives with each breakthrough. To pursue the furthest path, these cannot be ignored.

Fang Jie continued reading; there were many techniques for crafting a Divine Country outlined below.

There were even techniques for condensing Divine Power Crystals and using them, all meant to refine the Divine Country.

One couldn’t fathom why these people hid secrets from those who hadn’t yet obtained a Divine Country, yet revealed them outright to those whose Divine Country was fully formed, as if flaunting it.

Are they not afraid of selfless gods disclosing these things directly?

If that happened, wouldn’t they be ruined? Naturally, Fang Jie would never do such a thing.

Such an act would be thankless, bring him no benefit, and antagonize many powerful gods. The consequences would be dire, no doubt.

"Fang Jie, Qingqing says the weapons at the Void Fortress have been completed, and testing is about to begin."

Before he realized it, a day had passed, and now Qin Lan emerged, well-rested. However, Qin Lan didn’t return to work; there were more pressing matters at hand.

Following Fang Jie’s previous orders, Qin Qing had already activated the Floating City and flown into the void.

Currently, the Floating City carried a defense barrier akin to the one surrounding the Divine Country, but one tier lower. However, this downgrade was on a qualitative level and lacked numerous special abilities.

In terms of pure defense, it was in no way inferior to the Divine Country, and on some level, perhaps even stronger. After all, the Void Castle was meant for battle.

Previously, with a substantial resource expenditure, Qin Qing had commenced the construction of two super weapons upon it.

Initially deemed Plane Divine Artifacts, Fang Jie thought their construction would take at least a month, possibly several months, as is the norm with other Plane Divine Artifact structures.

Unexpectedly, they were completed within a single day.

It seems that these special weapons have a remarkably fast manufacturing speed, provided the resources are in place.

"Let’s go and have a look." Fang Jie waved his hand, setting off with Qin Lan. With a change of scenery, they were already at the Void Castle, which was also part of the Divine Country.

Even in the void, their internal teleportation arrays and certain abilities remained usable.

Fang Jie, as the God Country Master, and Qin Lan, as the Divine Queen, both possessed permissions to effortlessly traverse any part of the Divine Country. This included the surrounding Void Castle.

Upon arrival, Fang Jie first looked up towards the sky. The sky here was distinct from that of the Divine Country.

No sun, moon, or stars, no blue skies or white clouds – all one could see was a vast, desolate, night-like backdrop occasionally flickering with glints of light from some special entities or reflections.

This was the scenery of the void, unabashedly revealing itself to those within.

Given that these were war weapons, how could there be any concealment? The only sight was the occasional passage of Undead Flying Boats, eternally tasked with vigilance and combat.

In the void, the synergy between the Undead Flying Boats and the Void Castle was simply perfect.

"Not bad, not bad, with a void anchor point in place, these Undead Flying Boats now have a better spot to dock and rest."

Qin Lan surveyed the surroundings, exclaiming, "This place is really vast; I didn’t expect the Floating City to be so large!"

Fang Jie also glanced around; the Floating City now boasted an area over a hundred times larger than its original size. When Fang Jie issued orders earlier, he had also enabled a permission – the Void Castle should not be too small.

Thus, he drew in numerous fragments from the world conquered earlier.

Post personnel transfer, some fragments detached from the borders of the Divine Country, merging into the Void Castle. These fragments consistently expanded the Void Castle’s area.

Now consolidated, they could accommodate more defense weapons, though currently, there’s only one type.

Platforms had been constructed for use by Undead Flying Boats.

Given Fang Jie’s limited forces capable of operating in the void, only Undead Flying Boats were available. Fortunately, possessing Legendary Level Undead Flying Boats ensured adequacy in both rank and quantity.

The Void Castle had not reached its optimal capacity yet, but Fang Jie was disinclined to continue expanding, as sourcing fragments from the Divine Country was ultimately not a viable strategy.

It was simply a rapid fix to examine the outcome.

Subsequently, other fragments or planes could be sourced from the void, or new world conquests could yield fragments to further expand, maximizing cost-effectiveness.

If a larger plane was discovered, multiple Void Castles could be easily extended to their limit.

"Sister, brother-in-law, you’ve arrived. Please come with me; the test preparations are underway."

As the proxy lord, upon their sudden appearance, Qin Qing was immediately aware. Given both hadn’t hidden themselves, how could her permissions lack notification? She promptly sped over.

"Let’s go have a look; I’m quite curious about this type of weapon’s Plane Divine Artifact."
