"If the Tianshi Mansion decides to withdraw its strength and rely on the protection of the Dharma Protector Formation to develop and preserve its own strength, then the Tianshi Mansion will have five years to develop in the East Continent."
"So within these five years, the main contradiction of Tianshi Mansion has shifted from external to internal."
"Previously, the main conflict of the Tianshi Mansion was with the Western Continent's Outer Path True Demons and the Divine King Palace. When the Tianshi Mansion relied on the Dharma Protector Formation to reduce its power, the conflict with the Western Continent became a secondary conflict within five years, and the main conflict shifted from external to internal."
"With the shift in primary and secondary contradictions, we should put aside the secondary contradictions and focus on resolving the primary contradiction. Since we want to resolve the primary contradiction, we have to mention the current situation within East Continent."
"...In short, with the earth's veins and energy completely depleted, the situation in East Continent is already precarious. After three months of travel, the following is my summary of the major and minor internal contradictions over the past five years."
"The main contradiction is the extreme shortage of supplies, both for cultivation and for the survival of the common people. Although the Tianshi Mansion has established believers' temples throughout the East Continent to provide porridge to the people, this is not a long-term solution. During my travels, I found that many people were poorly clothed and hungry. Although the porridge could keep people alive, it could not satisfy their hunger. Under such circumstances, it was difficult for the people to maintain their faith in the Tianshi Mansion and the Heavenly Court. The lack of cultivation materials has made it impossible for the Tianshi Mansion to refine elixirs, cultivate spirit seeds, and even lack precious materials for refining weapons. As a result, the cultivators in the East Continent can only rely on hard training, and many disciples do not even have a suitable magic weapon. If this continues, the cultivators in the East Continent will always be left behind by the cultivators in the West Continent. Even if the Heavenly Court descends to counterattack the West Continent, 80% of the disciples in the Tianshi Mansion can only serve as pawns."
"Secondary contradiction: The secondary contradiction is the war with the Western Continent. The Heretic Demons and the Palace of the God King in the Western Continent will definitely be destroyed in the future, but we have made a mistake. For a hundred years, the Tianshi Mansion has only thought about fighting the Heretic Demons and the Palace of the God King, as if the only way to deal with them is war. Even if it retreats to the Eastern Continent, it is still the same with the protection of the Dharma Protector Formation. But in fact, there is another direction, that is, to compete for believers. Whether it is the Heretic Demons or the Palace of the God King, they all want to gain a foothold among the sentient beings in the Haolan Realm, and the only way to gain a foothold is to gain the faith and support of the sentient beings in this world. When the four great heavenly masters came to the Haolan Realm, they also laid the foundation of the Tianshi Mansion by preaching and educating sentient beings. But the problem now is that the Western Continent is prosperous, and the Heretic Demons are The God King Palace and the Temple of the Divine King have already gained the universal faith and support of the creatures of the Western Land, and the power of faith is constantly gathering on them. However, the Tianshi Mansion of the Eastern Land is now unable to even maintain the believers of the Eastern Land. Imagine, if the creatures and people of the Eastern Land knew about the prosperity of the Western Land, would they care who is the Heavenly Court? Who is the foreign demon? No, what the living beings want is a stable and prosperous life, not three meals of porridge a day and then wait to die. Now the people of the Eastern Land believe in the Tianshi Mansion only because of the inertia of a hundred years. Once this inertia is destroyed, or if they know about the situation in the Western Land, then the Tianshi Mansion will lose the believers of hundreds of millions of creatures in the Eastern Land in an instant. And when hundreds of millions of creatures in the Eastern Land turn to believe in the Western Land Heretic Demons and the God King Palace, I am afraid that even the guardian formation will not be able to stop the arrival of the Heretic Demons. "Biqu Pavilion
"So, the main contradiction at present is: we must do our utmost to restore the vitality of the East Continent, at least to ensure that the people of the East Continent have a life of plenty. We must also do our utmost to obtain various cultivation materials and precious materials, so that at least every disciple of the Tianshi Mansion has a suitable magic weapon! This is the most important thing, and it is something that must be resolved as soon as possible!"
...
After reading the contents on Fang Jian's jade slip, everyone present woke up as if from a dream.
They were not unaware of these problems, nor had they not thought about them, but they believed that with the protection of the guardian formation and the upcoming heavenly army, they could just lie down for a few years and endure it and the problem would be resolved.
In addition to the fact that they ignored the very important issue of the struggle for faith, the war with the heretic demons and the Palace of the God King is not a simple war of you destroying me and I destroying you, but a war that must fight for the faith of the Haolan Realm.
If there are people in Donglu who believe in those external demons and offer sacrifices to them, can the Dharma Protector Formation prevent the external demons from descending into Donglu with the sacrifices of their believers?
Originally, the heretic demon was unable to cross the blockade of the power of the world and enter the Haolan Realm, so the wife of the God King Tang Yi took the initiative to sacrifice herself, and then the heretic demon came.
Could the Dharma Protector Formation be stronger than the blockade of the power of the world? No one present had any confidence.
Everyone was terrified, yet also felt a sense of hope before their eyes, because Fang Jian's jade slip not only analyzed the main and secondary contradictions in detail, but also pointed out a direction.
But this direction seems out of reach to everyone present.
Liu Zhaoye sighed, then bowed to Fang Jian and said, "Master Hongqing is truly a genius of the Heavenly Court. He has clearly explained the gains and losses of our Tianshi Mansion over the past hundred years with just this one jade slip. I am truly admirable."
Even the other two assistant heavenly masters and seven chief priests nodded to Fang Jian. This Master Hongqing from the Heavenly Court was a little arrogant, but he still had some abilities.
Especially since he had only been in the Haolan Realm for three months, yet he could see the situation so clearly, they couldn't help but admire him.
However, it's not that they can't see through this point, but they are "in the mountain", so they can't jump out of the new and old hatreds with the heretic demons and the Palace of the God King and look at things from an outsider's perspective.
