"Master, you're back!" Upon seeing Wang Han's return, Gao Yao's face showed a rare expression of joy. He quickly and respectfully greeted Wang Han, then stood behind him, ready to receive orders at any time.
"How have you been doing with the things I entrusted to you in the past two years? How much have you prepared?" Wang Han asked. Although he had been gone from this world for a long time, to Gao Yao and the others, it had only been two years.
Upon hearing this, Gao Yao quickly and respectfully replied, "Reporting to Master, for the past two years, I have been carrying out your instructions before you left, vigorously developing the Tribulation, and laying hidden agents without a single day's rest. Everything is ready, but since you are not in this realm, I dare not act rashly. So I have been preparing and vigorously developing the Tribulation. At the same time, I have also made some other arrangements. I have cultivated many trusted confidants among humans all over the world, waiting for you to return. With a single command, you can mobilize all your forces."
“Tell me in detail,” Wang Han said.
"Yes, Master." Upon hearing this, Gao Yao quickly replied, "A year ago, I completed all the arrangements you instructed. Afterwards, by gathering elites from multiple other countries to support one country, I have successively unified the demon race of Japan, the monsters around the Sunless Kingdom, the werewolf race, and all their affiliated monsters. Now, most of the Western monsters have submitted to us. To avoid alerting them, we haven't made any major moves in China and its surrounding areas. There are still many wild demons, but nearly a third of them are working for us. Some sorcerers, evil cultists, and wicked monks have also joined us. In addition, I have adopted many orphans around the world and entrusted them to the demon race for training. Unfortunately, it has only been a short time, and the number is only about 300,000, and none of them have much combat power."
"Well done, just what I wanted." Upon hearing this, Wang Han praised, and then instructed, "Those orphans don't need to participate in the battle for now. It doesn't matter whether they have combat power or not. I have a better plan. Find some time to gather them all together."
"Yes, Master, I will do it as soon as possible," Gao Yao said, standing behind Wang Han and waiting for his instructions.
"No need to wait any longer, go do your thing!" Wang Han said, and then disappeared in a flash.

"What exactly is Uncle Nine trying to do? First he cultivated little zombies, and now he's cultivated and worshipped so many special spirit infants. Is he planning to use them to deal with me? Or to deal with Jie? Even so, given Uncle Nine's personality, he shouldn't be the kind of person who would do such a thing!"
In the new mortuary, Wang Han was puzzled to see that the wooden shelves used for offerings were almost filled with clay baby statues, probably more than two hundred in number, arranged in nine rows.
Given Uncle Nine's kindness, it's perfectly normal for him to offer sacrifices to the spirit infants and help them reincarnate. These spirit infants have been lingering in the human world because they failed to reincarnate, some even multiple times. They all harbor resentment to some extent, which is why they need to be offered sacrifices to dispel their resentment before they can be reincarnated. It is indeed a meritorious deed.
However, these spirit infants are not ordinary spirit infants.
With Wang Han's strength and abilities, he could easily discern the special nature of these infant spirits. Each of them possessed magical power comparable to that of ordinary demons, and their powers complemented each other, enough to form a powerful array with surplus. Clearly, these infant spirits were meant for use; they weren't intended for reincarnation but were being nurtured as combatants. Among them was even a particularly resentful evil infant, the result of multiple failed reincarnations. This evil infant's clay statue was bound with a red rope.
These special spirit infants, once nurtured, possess immense power, but their minds are immature, making them extremely prone to becoming monstrous demons who wreak havoc on the region. In the end, they are destined to be annihilated. If a demonic fetus is conceived, the trouble will be even greater, as devouring its master becomes commonplace, and the karmic consequences of the killings committed will also be shared with the master.
Cultivating these special spirit infants is not something that people with righteous hearts would do. Even some sorcerers or evil wizards would not do this. This is not just against the laws of nature, but against the principles of heaven and earth. Nine times out of ten, it will be punished by the heavens and one will also have to face the backlash of these spirit infants. People who do this are facing a life-or-death situation, or even certain death.
Uncle Nine is an upright and kind man, but also somewhat rigid and principled. How could he do such a thing? If this weren't Uncle Nine's residence, and if he didn't actually live here, Wang Han would never have believed that Uncle Nine worshipped so many special spirit infants.
"Big brother, who are you?"
"Big brother is so handsome!"
"Big brother's clothes are so nice."
Are you here to see your uncle and the others?
Wang Han wondered why Uncle Nine was worshipping these special spirit infants. As he hesitated about what to do, the spirit infants noticed his sudden arrival and emerged from their statues, transforming into a group of innocent children, around two or three, five or six years old, wearing red bibs. They surrounded Wang Han, calling him "brother" and "uncle" sweetly. The boys touched Wang Han's armor with their little hands, utterly delighted, while the little girls gazed at Wang Han's face without his mask, their eyes sparkling with affection.
"Sigh! Just a bunch of pitiful children." Looking at these innocent children, Wang Han finally sighed, and the lightning blade that had already taken shape in his hand dissipated.
"Children, shall I help you reincarnate?" Wang Han dissipated the lightning blade in his hand, squatted down, gently stroked the children's heads, and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay!"
Upon hearing this, the infant spirits were overjoyed and eagerly awaited it.
"Daddy, are you planning to let us be born in Mommy's tummy? Daddy is so handsome, Mommy must be very handsome too, and we will definitely be very handsome in the future." A cute little girl asked, holding Wang Han's big hand. The other children also looked at Wang Han with expectant eyes, and they changed their address from "uncle" to "dad".
"Cough cough..." Wang Han coughed a few times, then quickly shook his head and said, "Little friends, I mean I'll help you reincarnate, but not make you my children. Everyone stand still, I'll take you to reincarnate."
"Everyone, line up quickly." Hearing this, the infant spirits were somewhat disappointed that their father wasn't this handsome older brother, but they still quickly lined up as Wang Han had instructed.
"Divine Might!" After the spirit infants stood in place, Wang Han immediately activated his divine might, taking all the spirit infants and their spirit images into his divine might space. Then, Wang Han's figure flashed and he also entered the divine might space.
The reincarnation of these spirit infants is very simple; all that's needed is to find a pregnant woman about to give birth, and there's no need for them to drink any Meng Po soup (the soup of oblivion). (This is how it is in the original text, but only applies to spirit infants.)

"Waaaaah...! Why didn't you take me with you! Why!" After Wang Han left, the infant spirit bound by the red rope let out a wailing cry, but unfortunately, he could do nothing because he was bound by the red rope.
