Sudden deaths, mental aberrations, and episodes of rampant stupidity and madness had all become the norm...
The Imperial Court withdrew the laborers originally toiling along the canal and established a "Forbidden Area" along its banks.
However, rumors began spreading that although the area around the canal was perilous, it was also rich with treasures. Many folks started to venture into the Forbidden Area, hoping that a bit of luck might lead to unearthing small gemstones—thus making a fortune...

"Five Elements Crystals, Sun Nine-Pattern Gold, Taiyin Smoke-Patterned Jade, these have all begun to appear in this world..." Su Mengzhen wore a snow-white summer dress, gracefully covering her figure without revealing anything unnecessary.
"This is happening too quickly..."
Su Ningyu was nursing, but she instinctively took up her sister’s topic, "I remember when these crystals appeared in Greenbird Continent, everything started to go downhill..."
"Very much downhill."
She seemed to sink into her memories, which brimmed with death, destruction, and evil.
Su Mengzhen said nothing.
Why it was happening so fast was something both sisters actually understood well.
Being intimately close to Song Cheng, they were both clearly aware of the canal’s true purpose.
Now, it was simply a matter of accelerating the existing process.
And the "Four Evil Domain" that Song Cheng often spoke of was perhaps about to... or, indeed, had already completely formed.
The two women continued chatting and laughing, but neither of their tones contained much panic.
Even if Su Ningyu recalled the destroyed Greenbird Continent, or Su Mengzhen remembered the Chaotic Journey marked by a life-and-death escape, neither of them felt panic any longer.
Because the sense of security that man provided was simply too overwhelming.
He was like a vast umbrella, sheltering them overhead and covering this region.
As long as he was there, the sky would not fall.
The serene door stood ajar, the sunlight outside not too intense, and the cicadas had yet to start their summer song; then, a figure in a Mysterious Robe hurried over from outside...
As Song Cheng pondered over the various messages coming from the canal, by the time he reached Yu’s bedside, he had made up his mind to check things out sooner rather than later. Many of the world’s problems often stemmed from needless delays.
"Yu, Sister Su, I want to have a look at the canal. Perhaps the Four Evil Domain has already formed, or... perhaps my opportunity to break through is at hand."
In reality, whether it was the Sun Buddha Sutra from the Xiao Family of Jiangnan describing the Buddha Realm, the Li Fire Roc Peng Technique from the Zhao Family of Feather State, the Blue Jiao Transformation Jue from the Qi Family of East Sea State, or the Wonderful Pen Book from the Cui Family of Feng State, none of them accurately recorded a cultivation technique of Xuan-level A.
Even figures such as Saint Heavenly Buddha, Emperor Ji, Yan Muyi, and Demon Subduing True Man, who had taken possession of bodies transferred from Greenbird Continent, had only achieved "Xuan-level B" at their highest in a previous life.
Yet, absolutely no one had a foundation as solid as Song Cheng’s, pushing several techniques to Great Perfection simultaneously and harboring numerous Divine Souls within him.
He believed the Four Evil Domain would provide the answers he sought.
Moreover, this Four Evil Domain, being led by the "Drowning Ghost," was all the safer for it.
"Then you should go," Su Ningyu said. "You needn’t worry about the children."
Song Cheng was silent for a while.
In reality, he had experienced many such silences before.
He first went to see Madam Tong, then Sister An, and at both places he maintained a comparable silence.
Su Mengzhen commented, "The Reappear Calamity could recur annually; we don’t know how many years this Four Evil Domain has been here."
"Then go," Su Ningyu repeated, looking at the baby girl in her arms with a mother’s smile.
Indeed, children can make a girl grow up swiftly.
Although her features remained the same, her heart had changed.
Song Cheng looked at Mo, leaned in to gently touch her cheek, then lowered his gaze and became still for a moment, pursed his lips, and with a smile said, "If that Immortality Peach indeed heralds the birth of a mighty being, there will come a day when I will be able to... Then, I wish for all of you to have a lifespan that matches the heavens."
The Su sisters both covered their mouths, giggling.
Su Ningyu said, "Then Mo and I will wait for you."
Song Cheng nodded and then turned and strode away.
He had to leave, had to become stronger.
...
...
Several days later, in East Sea State...
By the canal bank.
Song Cheng arrived with great strides; he could feel the distortion in the air, the chaos of everything.
Ghost Servants were everywhere, moving and killing by instinct.
Song Cheng casually dispatched a Ghost Servant that drew near, muttering to himself, "Evil Body."
He walked a few more steps and then felt waves of wind blowing past him. These winds were saturated with bizarre forces that appeared only to ruffle his hair and Mysterious Robe, but in fact, they had already brushed against his Divine Soul.
It was only Song Cheng who remained unaffected; if it had been an ordinary person, even a Qi Realm Warrior, the wind could have instantly unsettled their Divine Soul, leading to serious illness or even death as their Divine Soul was blown from their body.
"Evil Soul."
Night fell, and the strange essence in the air grew even denser.
Song Cheng briefly saw illusions that resembled clouds of smoke: dancing skeletons in rainbow garments, piles of eye-opening corpses, flickering flames, noisy crowds, vile curses...
And so on.
A trace of drowsiness approached.
Song Cheng simply rubbed his forehead and dispelled it all.
However, had it been someone else, they would have fallen asleep by now and either perished in their dreams or gone mad...
"Evil Dream."
Song Cheng confirmed this kind of environment.
And he understood that the "terrifying consequences" of the Fusion of the Eight Ghosts were already starting to take shape.
However, he waited an entire night and still did not feel the "Evil Domain"...
Clearly, the Four Evil Domain was still forming and had not yet fully materialized.
Song Cheng tried Visualization, but as he ascended to the top of the Ninefold Ghostly Tower, he only viewed the vast, chaotic expanse outside...
