Considering the future state of affairs, Ling Qiyue finally accepted Qin Mengxuan's suggestion to invest massive resources in upgrading the Protective Array at the family headquarters on Changqing Continent to Rank Four.
Furthermore, other important territories and islands would also need to be protected by high-rank Third-Grade Arrays. When necessary, deploying a certain number of Cultivators would allow them to hold their ground for a significant amount of time.
Additionally, corresponding numbers of Third-Grade and Rank-Four Daoist Soldier Puppets, along with ample reserves of Third-Grade and Rank-Four Talismans and Elixirs, all had to be put in place.
These were all important metrics of a family's underlying strength and foundation, and they were the key to withstanding a prolonged, high-intensity war.
