Senior Brother, Stop It, You Are A Villain!

Chapter 406.1

New Idea (3)

The development of any force will inevitably embark on the road of external expansion. The method of expansion can be through peaceful means or through force, but this is a necessary path that no force can avoid.

Regardless of the fact that the overall pattern of cultivation forces in the Upper Domain is stable and peaceful today, super-first-class forces like Yunjian Pavilion have all smashed their own world in the bloody storm.

They don’t need to invade others, but they must have a strong enough force. Otherwise, they will become fish on other people’s chopping boards sooner or later.

Wuling City is currently facing such a crossroads.

However, in view of the fact that the establishment of Wuling City is still too short, although it has the blessing of new weapons, its force is still not enough to compete with top first-class forces.

Therefore, the method of expansion through force is not advisable.

The best way is to cultivate their own forces and accumulate strength.

But on this issue, Dai Zhixin put forward a different point of view.

Dai Zhixin believes that the biggest problem facing Wuling City right now is not how to expand, but what form of power it intends to develop into.

She came up with two ideas. One is a union of city-states and the other is an empire.

The advantage of the union of city-states is that it can expand its power in a peaceful way.

But there is also a big problem here, that is, it is difficult for a union of city-states to achieve a unified idea.

If people’s hearts are not unified, internal friction will easily occur at a certain stage in the future, which will lead to internal strife or even civil war.

After thinking about this question, at least the current development plan of Wuling City already has a clear answer. However, after careful consideration, Feng Shao decided to discuss the longer-term planning goals with Dai Zhixin carefully.

So the two closed the door and discussed the matter in detail.

During the discussion, Dai Zhixin proposed many ideas that were quite novel to Feng Shao.

For example, Dai Zhixin believes that the current power structure in the Upper Domain is somewhat similar to the United Nations in this world, but the overall framework is still very loose, and various small alliances rule one side.

A truly powerful sect can ignore the established rules and do some unethical actions, while other sects dare not speak out about this, and many sects are even forced to gather under their command to cheer for them.

However, if there is a big event that is enough to endanger the interests of all sects, they can immediately put aside their disputes and fight against the common threat together.

This pattern of barely maintaining a balance in the conflict has actually existed for a long time, and it can even be traced back to a few thousand years ago.

The proof is, the leading super-first-class forces a few thousand years ago, are still the same ones a few thousand years later.

Although some forces have declined and some forces have risen, the overall situation remains the same.

For example, the Tianxin Sect disappeared and was replaced by the Yunjian Pavilion, which was rebuilt from its foundation. This is a bit similar to the disintegration of the current Soviet Union, and the Russian Federation inherited the international status of the Soviet Union.

The reason for this situation, Dai Zhixin believes, is that the overall interests of the Upper Domain have basically been divided. Even if a latecomer has the ability to have connections, it will be difficult for them to break out of their own world in such a situation.
