40,000 Years of Cultivation

"General Di wants the entire federation to become the ‘imperial party’ of the true human empire, and even the Ten Thousand Realms Commercial League from his own background is included?

Bai happily sneered, "Are you betraying the Ten Thousand Realms Business Alliance?"

"So what?"

Di Feiwen looked at his chubby hands and said with a smile, "Betrayal was originally a common thing for us immortal cultivators, and the Federation did not accept me and the defeated generals because of my loyalty, right? ?"

Bai Happy was speechless for a while.

"We have been doing the changes in the political situation of the empire, especially the intelligence analysis and character sketches of the new emperor."

The veteran intelligence chief of the Federation coughed dryly after the spring breeze, and continued to talk. "What General Di said may not be what we think, but it is too dangerous after all-to interfere with the political changes of a big country with the strength of a small country. , Don’t hesitate to play with fire on the abyss, a little carelessness will be forever!"

"It's playing with fire, so what? The Star Federation has been playing with fire since its birth to today?"

Di Feiwen said, "You are playing with fire when you establish the'Nine Faction Alliance' in the harsh environment of demons; after the East Pole Demon Kingdom is destroyed, the daily war between the Tianyuan Realm and the Blood Demon Realm is also playing with fire; Li Yao defeated Xiao Xuance in the Flying Star Realm, he was playing with fire; the human race and the monster race reached a peace, and the three realms of Tian Yuan, the blood demon, and the flying star formed a new federation. They were playing with fire; the new federation was playing with fire in the battle against the Black Wind Fleet— -The six-hundred-year rise of the Confederation was created between the mountains of swords and the sea of ​​swords and halberds, with steel, blood and flames all the way through. There are no guarantees of victory, no easy rise, no risks. Is the world peaceful at the slightest risk?

"The power comparison between the Federation, the Empire, and the Holy League is not the first day that the monarchs knew. The Federation was originally a small country that only occupies nine barren worlds and one or two advanced prehistoric relics. Such a small country wants If you compete with hundreds of superpowers in the world, don’t play with fire, don’t take risks, and don’t see the time to bet on all your belongings, I don’t know, what kind of'opportunity' are you still looking forward to?

"In short, if a small border country like the Federation wants to maintain a strategic balance with a star-sea power like the empire, it must intervene in the situation within the empire to ensure that the empire is in a state of faction and fighting with each other. All parties are jealous, and all parties have to fight for the "third force" that is beyond the situation. Isn't this the basic national policy of the Federation for hundreds of years?

"No matter how it is implemented, first of all, the Federation’s strong force must be deployed to the empire first. The immortal cultivator believes in the rule of'the weak will eat the strong, the winner is king'. Nothing will work unless you first demonstrate the tyranny of the federation. No transaction can be reached!"

Di Feiwen's words caused many federal powerhouses to fall into a short silence.

After the silence, there was an even more intense argument.

With the words of Di Feiwen, many powerful people in the ancient sacred world can finally express their opinions-their opinions may not be so organized, but at least let the high level of the federation know that in the federation, the "main battle faction" The argument is still very marketable.

Think about it. For the past 100 years, the Federation has been under the threat of the Black Wind Fleet, and the war machine has maintained a high-power operation. The construction of the entire society and the advancement of civilization have always focused on the army and force, and the status of the soldier and the strong. Very high, the martial arts in the society is also very strong.

At that time, few people believed that the invasion of the Black Wind Fleet would be easily resolved. Three or five generations of people were ready to fight until one soldier, and the entire Federation was broken into scorched earth. People went deep into the crust and insisted on fighting. A hundred years of preparation!

Now, the threat of the Black Wind Fleet was completely resolved by the sacrifices of Li Yao and countless people from the Federation.

However, the century-long quasi-war state and the iron-blooded personality shaped by the shadow of war for a whole generation of people are not so easy to restore to a peaceful state.

Not to mention anything else, it is astronomical to say that the number of troops and military expenditures of the Federation, which are several times higher than the normal level, including the refining and maintenance costs of various starships, are astronomical figures.

Should the troops and starships prepared for the "general war, scorched earth war, and final war" continue to be maintained?

If you do not plan to maintain such a large-scale army, the retiring of soldiers, as well as the sealing and scrapping of starships, will lead to great economic, social and even political problems. The rise and fall of dynasties throughout the ages, I do not know how many turmoil, The tragedy was caused by the poor handling of the issue of the placement of military veterans and the intensification of contradictions.

If you want to continue, where does the money come from? You know, not only every starship is a gold swallowing beast, but even every cultivator is a bottomless pit that consumes resources. The daily food expenses of all warriors and cultivators are enough to make the Chief of Staff of the Federal Army happy and worried. Every hair is white.

Once the war machine is running to its limit, it is impossible to stop it slowly. It is enough to fill in enough flesh and bones to make it brake completely.

In the federal defense war, there were not enough flesh and bones to fill in. This is the biggest problem.

"To fight war is to burn money. Burning one's own money is a loser, and burning other people's money is a winner."

The eagle on the grassland of the ancient sacred world, or simply put it, the bandit leader Han Baling on the grassland plausibly said, "For the long-term stability of the Federation, the current military must be maintained or even expanded, and it is absolutely impossible to disarm.

"And the federal finances cannot sustain such a large-scale army. In the early years, facing the threat of life and death, the people were naturally willing to contribute all their resources and gritted their teeth to survive the most difficult years. But now, what reason is there? Do they do this?

"Without sufficient funds, to maintain such a large-scale army, what other options are there other than external expansion and continuous victories and victories?

"It shouldn’t be too late. Let’s expedition to the center of Xinghai now. On the one hand, we can get the materials and technical support of the new empire. On the other hand, we can looting the wealth of the remnants of the four major electoral families, and even have the opportunity to seize the control of the four major families and the Holy League. The great world of China has made great war fortunes-and relying on the immeasurable war fortunes, and the ability to issue war bonds within the Federation, the stocks of major sects and groups have also had new hype topics that can make all the people willing to take out the pressure. The capital at the bottom of the box helps the federal government through the most difficult period.

"What other business can be more cost-effective than this?"

"The prerequisite for making war fortune is victory and victory!"

Bai Xinxing retorted, "Can we guarantee victory?"

"Of course not."

Han Baling said nonchalantly, "If the war is defeated, the Federation will be destroyed. No matter what war bonds or promises made in the wild, there is no need to fulfill them, and no one cares, right?

Such irresponsible remarks naturally triggered a new round of rebuttals. The "main battle faction" and the "detente war faction" are coming and going with each other. Seeing that the atmosphere is getting more and more tense, the focus of the two sides has long since drifted. Where did it go?

At this time, from the end of the conference table, there was the sound of an ebony cane hitting the deck hard.

"Whhhhhhhhh!"

Everyone's argument came to an abrupt end, and everyone turned their eyes to the old man who was covered with moss, like a rock.

The most famous long-lived old man in the Commonwealth, Gui Sushou.

I don’t know if it is "highly respected and respected", but Guishoushou is indeed the longest-lived person in the entire federation so far, and one of the masters in the highest cultivation realm, almost with the two gods of Meng Chixin and Wu Suiyun. Ghost repair is similar.

It's just that he condensed all his magical powers to the skill "health and longevity".

This is so, the long life is enough for him to spend countless thrilling and curious years, accumulating extremely rich life experience, to guide these juniors in front of him.

Gui Shoushou is eligible to participate in this Federation Powers Conference, and treats all Federation Powers as juniors.

His age is even longer than the "age" of the Star Federation. As early as six hundred years ago, the predecessor of the Star Federation, before the establishment of the Nine Faction Alliance on the Tianyuan Star, Gui Sushou had been accustomed to the changes. There is a big storm.

This old demon clan has always regarded himself as a "historical recorder", and even conceived a "tombstone project", to record the most glorious moments of the human and demon civilizations in Xinghai Beach in his "tombstone."

Now, it is the most glorious and dangerous moment of the Star Federation. Although the time for Guishou to stay sober is far beyond the sum of the previous hundreds of years, he even served as the deputy of the "Life Research Institute" of the new federation. The dean's job is to study the mysteries of human cultivation and longevity using biochemical technology.

Speaking of it, the Xingyao Federation, which has the last formed power of the demon race in the Pangu universe, has also obtained an orderly inheritance and a very complete biochemical technology system from the blood demon world, combining the biochemical technology of the blood demon world and the prehistoric relics of the ancient sacred world. The corpses of many Pangu tribes in the Kunlun Secret Realm merged together to analyze and extract countless unique and vast biochemical cultivation techniques.

The Federation's exploration in the field of biochemistry has even led the empire and the Holy League. In this regard, Guishoushou is a living database and museum, and has made great contributions.

The Life Research Institute of the Federal Psionic Research Center led by him even conducted extensive tracking investigations and big data sampling for all cultivators in the entire Federation, whether they are practicing, cultivating, or taking the route of strengthening the flesh and blood of the demon race, and used countless papers. And the research report further standardized, digitized, and reproducible the word "cultivation", providing clear guidance for the upgrading of countless practitioners.

Many powerhouses in the Federation respect Gui Shoushou very much, knowing that he must have something very important to say-otherwise, this thousand-year old demon wouldn't bother to waste his energy to speak!
