As Chu Yuan left the underground ancient city, he felt a strange sensation of being transcendent, as if he had returned from the ancient Kingdom of Shang that had existed tens of thousands of years ago to the present.
"Zhao Kong, you needn't stay here with me. Go back with the Sect Master of Cangnan and swiftly organise the formation of the Wanxuan Army and the Li Fire Corps. Additionally, gather the craftspeople from the two provinces of Wanxuan and Cangnan and have them placed in the Ministry of Works to forge armor for the Wanxuan Army. Also, deliver various herbs to Imperial Dawu for concocting elixirs. Distribution will be determined by me later."
Chu Yuan proceed systematically.
The five-element army corps, composed of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, must start to form immediately. Starting with the Li Fire Corps, their presence would be crucial for the future expansion of the empire.
Zhao Kong did not voice any objections.
