Chapter 1061: Chapters 1010-1011: Turning the Tide of Life and Death, At the Top of the Merits Leaderboard, Two in One Chapter 1061: Chapters 1010-1011: Turning the Tide of Life and Death, At the Top of the Merits Leaderboard, Two in One For these questions, Wang Boan just smiled faintly after hearing them. He only needed to know that these people's merits were assured and that the soldiers who died in battle could be settled. That was enough for him, as for the rest, Wang Boan genuinely didn't care.
Over the many years he managed the border, Wang Boan commanded the Border Army, and although there had not been any major conflicts with the Demon Race, continuous minor skirmishes were relentless. Thus, he also knew that sometimes there could be cases of people taking undeserved credit for bravery. As long as it wasn't a grave mistake, he would smoothly overlook it.
Knowing that the army's morale was reliable, Wang Boan nodded, then began to discuss, “Next, let's talk about how we should deploy our troops moving forward.”
The War of Sealing Gods had already begun. Military deployment would wait until they had fortified this border, and then they would need to continue the offensive. However, the deployment of the Demon Race's city defenses was intricate – how to deploy troops, and even whether to divide them, required careful consideration.
The Demon Domain was vast and boundless, its interior unexplored by the human race, filled with countless unknowns. Therefore, each step taken forward needed to be carried out with a Steady Strike, ensuring the supply lines were not severed, avoiding the entrapment of the entire army.
Therefore, according to Wang Boan's thinking, the War of Sealing Gods was definitely not a short-term conflict. Facing the Demon Race, a formidable opponent that had contended with the human race for innumerable years, defeating them would not be an easy task, and certainly not something that could be achieved overnight.
They could achieve short-term victories, but in such a protracted struggle, even someone like Wang Boan, a commander, could not guarantee a win in every upcoming battle.
What he could ensure was that, to the best of his ability, he would achieve long-term victory on the overall situation, as well as ultimate victory.
Cultivators have long lives, and though they may seem like they had millions in their army now, Wang Boan saw this as just the beginning. To truly defeat the Demon Race and secure the ultimate victory for the human race, the warriors needed in the future would multiply – potentially by the tens of millions, hundreds of millions, or even more.
As such, according to Wang Boan's plan, the next step should be to proceed with a Steady Strike approach, using the Demon Race's border as a base to expand over the entire Demon Domain. There was no need to be hasty, the territories must be fully absorbed, allowing the human race to grow stronger and lay a complete foundation for later victory.
Atop Dragon Tiger Mountain, the Ancestor Celestial Master looked at his disciple Bai Qicang with a complex expression.
As a True Immortal, their Dao Hearts were solid, shaken by neither Heaven nor Earth, but the Ancestor Celestial Master, a supreme powerhouse who had lived for an unknown number of years, viewed his disciple with mixed feelings.
Once, or perhaps even now, he was the disciple he had the highest hopes for and admired the most. His fondness for and value placed upon Bai Qicang were unmatched, even by the Second Generation Celestial Master.
From their initially inseparable relationship to clashing over philosophical perspectives, and finally the issues that arose leading to Bai Qicang's departure from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Over the years, he had been receiving news, but he also understood that the conflict between them was irreconcilable, perhaps only on the day he passed away would Bai Qicang return to Dragon Tiger Mountain.
However, even though Bai Qicang had returned to Dragon Tiger Mountain to block enemies after attaining the status of a True Immortal, during the centuries that the Ancestor Celestial Master was in retreat, Bai Qicang was also in seclusion – the two had not actually had a real exchange.
Now, as they sat together, looking at his disciple whose eyes were filled with the vicissitudes of time and who had lost his youthful vigor, the Ancestor Celestial Master couldn't help but sigh about how time was the greatest tormentor of all.
At this moment, the two once again sat down together to talk things over.
“Now that you are not far from the True Immortal Realm, having touched the threshold of the Immortal Path, perhaps the problem between you and me, teacher and disciple, can finally be resolved,” the Ancestor Celestial Master said, surrounded by Talismans, his eyes flickering with Divine Light.
There was one issue that was difficult for the master and disciple to resolve – it revolved around a person's life, which could not be settled unless that person was resurrected.
Over the years, the Ancestor Celestial Master had also been constantly searching for a way to bridge their rift.
Yet, even after thousands of years, the Ancestor Celestial Master had not found a solution. After all, over the years, countless powerhouses had sought this method, but not everyone could find it.
However, not long ago, when discussing the Tao with True Monarch Shenxiao Pei Xuanjing, the True Immortals saw the power of the Gods Sealing List shake Heaven and Earth. At that time, True Monarch Shenxiao Pei Xuanjing proposed a possibility.
“If the power of a True Immortal is strong enough to shake the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, to twist Time itself, it must be possible to resurrect a person from the fabric of Time, as long as they can withstand the punishment of the Original Source of Heaven and Earth, this could be achieved for that person to live again between Heaven and Earth,” True Monarch Shenxiao had said.
This was a great shock to all the True Immortals present. To reach where they were today, which one of them hadn't had regrets, hadn't had people they wanted to save? But since everything seemed impossible, they could only bury that sliver of regret deep in their hearts.
Now, hearing this conjecture, many True Immortals helped Master Tianji to divine the Celestial Mechanism and discovered this assertion was feasible – it wasn't impossible to achieve.
Although the required Realm and power was vast, with a considerable price to pay, for a True Immortal, hope was always better than despair.
