In the following day, Wei Yuan was on the move ceaselessly, visiting a total of seventeen human settlements, both large and small, within a single day—the largest housing thousands, the smallest only a hundred or two. As long as the number of residents in a village exceeded a hundred, Wei Yuan made a point of stopping by and asked everyone to spread the word. Many people were scattered across the vast terrain, but they always had to visit human settlements periodically to trade for necessities, and that's when they would learn of Wei Yuan's recruitment of mortals.

Throughout that day, Wei Yuan had covered all the human villages and towns within a three-hundred-li radius, roughly reaching out to forty thousand people.
