"What you just said is very reasonable, and the issues you are worried about are very likely to happen.
Regarding the military and political trade-offs, I am not my expert, but I hear it all over the place.
In the struggle for interests, I rarely hear you talk about the 'Dao', so let me talk about the 'Dao' and the 'Tao Heart' of the Federation!"
Gui Suishou held on to the ebony crutch, his eyebrows lowered, he looked like a stubborn rock on the coast or a rusty ancient bell.
He struck everyone's minds with these words, and then he pondered for a moment before slowly speaking. , "Honestly, from my status as an old man, talking about It seems inappropriate to discuss the way of the Federation and the way of cultivation, and the so-called 'Tao Heart' is a mysterious and elusive thing.
Countless experts and scholars have painstakingly studied it for hundreds and thousands of years, but no one can completely analyze it.
What exactly is 'Tao Xin'?
"But the 'Tao Heart' really doesn't exist, is it just an illusion of self-deception, some kind of strong self-suggestion?
I'm afraid that can't be said.
"I have here a recent survey report released by the Life Research Institute.
It tracked the training and upgrade data of tens of thousands of powerful people in the past hundred years, combined it, and conducted detailed analysis to come up with a curve chart.
"It can be seen from these curves that in the past hundred years, the cultivation and upgrading of the strong men of the Federation is inseparable from the advancement of the Federation's national power, and they are mutually causal.
"The stronger the federation is, the faster these strong men will practice and the higher the upgrade success rate.
In turn, as more and more strong men emerge in the federation, the combined national strength and war potential will also expand explosively.
"Is this just a coincidence, or is it just the abundance of resources, the improvement of technology and the stability of the cultivation environment that have triggered the rapid progress of cultivators?
Based on a large amount of data, including the psychological sketches of the cultivators themselves, we have come to different conclusions --Apart from In addition to material things, what is more important is spirit.
These cultivators firmly believe that they are on the right path, defending justice, and the road that is universal for all stars and seas.
Encouraged by this belief, they can move forward indomitably and continuously.
Hit the limits of humanity!
"Our Life Research Institute summarizes this phenomenon into one sentence - Human cultivation requires not only one's own efforts, but more importantly, it is the torrent of history, the righteousness of the country, and the spirit of civilization!
"In the past hundred years, countless cultivators have firmly believed that they are the defenders of justice.
Their crazy cultivation and hard work have not only defended their relatives, compatriots and homes, but also the best, purest and kindest of all mankind.
In the spirit of their spirit, they are not only fighting for the four words 'Star Federation', but also fighting for the five words 'human justice'.
In other words, the federation is equal to justice!
"This kind of belief is the source of their strength, and it is the cultivation speed and upgrade success rate of cultivators in the Federation that are much higher than those in the Empire, allowing the Federation to catch up with the Empire's development speed of four to five hundred years in just a hundred years.
The biggest reason for the final victory over the Black Wind Fleet!
"To be honest, I have lived intermittently for almost a thousand years, and from the historical recorders of my predecessors, I have collected information about the rise and fall of countless countries and tribes in the past thousands or tens of thousands of years.
I have witnessed the rise and fall of various national systems, Governmental forms and even tribal forms are varied and strange.
It is a strange country, but we have never seen the Federation like today...people of all races and life forms can live together without any grudges, the people at the bottom have an unimpeded path to advancement, and the top leaders are relatively clean and have ideals and ambitions.
A vibrant and prosperous golden country.
"Of course the Starry Federation is not perfect, but compared to the Empire, the Holy Alliance and various small countries scattered on the borders of the Star Sea, this place can already be called the 'hope of human civilization'.
"Then, if we do not regard the Starry Federation as an ordinary country, but as the 'hope of human civilization', how should we face the war situation in the center of the Star Sea?
"At this moment, in the center of the sea of stars, countless people are living in dire straits, living in darkness, and a life worse than death.
"Even such miserable days cannot last forever.
The fragile order will be completely shattered.
Countless worlds and habitable planets will fall into the sea of fire.
Tens of billions or hundreds of billions of people will be silent.
He died without even leaving his name or scream.
"Those who are lucky enough to survive will also become puppets of the Holy Alliance, washing away their independent emotions and will, and then branding them with the seal of the 'Three Original Laws', leaving irreversible sequelae.
"Or, they will kill each other like wild beasts and lunatics in an evil earth world where resources are extremely scarce and the entire planet is deserted, and they will survive, just like... the 'Earth Paradise' of the Wuying World, and carry out Shura hell-like activities.
Survival game.
"——If we don't stop it, all of this will happen in the next two or three years.
There is no power that can help the poor people in the center of the star sea escape their tragic fate.
"Of course I can't say that the views of the 'delayers' are wrong.
From the perspective of an ordinary country, a commander and commander-in-chief who fulfills his duties must of course be responsible for the lives of every soldier under his command and every citizen behind the soldiers. , it is a matter of course and only right to seize the maximum national interests for one's own country.

"However, knowing that the hundreds of millions of people in the center of the star sea are about to fall into the abyss of destruction, they still watch them die or live worse than death, and extremely calmly calculate the consumption between the Empire and the Holy Alliance, which is the best entry point for the Federation's war. ...
Wait until two or three years before joining the war.
By then, even if the Federation has achieved battlefield victory and substantial material rewards, how will it face the injustice of thousands of tragic deaths?
Soul, how should we face the Taoist heart of the Federation?
When the cultivators of the Federation are trying to reach a higher realm, how should they openly tell themselves that I am practicing for justice, for all mankind, and for human civilization?
Therefore, justice will definitely protect me, all mankind will definitely support me, and tens of millions of fellow human beings will definitely stand by my side and fight alongside me?
"Don't think that I am trying to overwhelm people with illusory principles.
The great road leads to the mysteries, but there are traces to follow.
In the past hundred years, the average cultivation efficiency of federal cultivators has increased by 13% compared to the previous hundred years, which is higher than what we recently collected.
It turns out that the average cultivation efficiency of immortal cultivators in the empire over a hundred years is more than 20% higher.
Do you think this is just good luck and 'God bless the Federation'?
"I think this is the core of the problem - the core is how you view the Star Federation.
"If you think of the Starry Federation as an ordinary, ignorant, soulless country - no different from the many countries that have flourished and perished in the sea of stars in the past ten thousand years, and the Federation, the Empire, and the Holy Alliance The war between them is just a common war of interests, a war for the hegemony of the universe.
Then you can continue to discuss your interests with arrogance and worry about gains and losses.
It doesn't matter.
It is normal and should be done.
"It's just that I must remind you that in this way, the Federation will completely lose its advantage on the road.
Cultivators, immortal cultivators, and Holy Alliance members are just hypocrites and true villains.
What's the difference?
Such a situation Come on, federal cultivators will no longer be able to get the slightest blessing from the Taoist heart, will never be able to get a higher cultivation efficiency and upgrade success rate than immortal cultivators, and will never be able to get the support of hundreds of millions of people in the center of the star sea.
"How can such a federation that has lost its heart and soul compete with the Empire and the Holy Alliance?
"But if you, as well as millions of cultivators and warriors, believe that the Star Federation is not just an ordinary country, but a country with soul, morality, kindness, and justice, it is a burning hope for human civilization. , a country destined to liberate all mankind, if it fights not only for profit, but also for the four words of 'justice' and 'liberation', I believe that all cultivators and the Federation The warriors' faith will be stronger, their Taoist hearts will be purer, and their souls will be firmer.
Their cultivation efficiency and upgrade success rate will be greatly improved as if they were injected with a cardiotonic drug, and they may even achieve breakthroughs on the battlefield, breakthroughs on the battlefield, breakthroughs to the death, and leapfrog levels.
Things like "defeating the enemy" will appear one after another, causing the entire federal cultivation world to undergo completely new changes, bringing you huge surprises!
"Haha, I'm sorry for making you listen to so much nonsense.
"I know...
I know that in such a high-level and critical meeting, it is a bit inappropriate to talk about 'justice' and 'spirit' without talking about the balance of power between the enemy and ourselves and the balance of national interests.
Somewhat absurd.
"And for me, an old immortal born in the demon clan, to talk extravagantly about the path of cultivation in front of all the cultivators, it is more like a kind of irony.
"However, in addition to being a demon clan, I am also a historical recorder and... the builder of tombstones of human civilization.
"Everyone is destined to die.
No matter how wonderful and glorious a life is, in the end it is just a short epitaph on a tombstone.
Isn't this the same for a country and a civilization?"
"How I hope that when faced with the decision of life and death, the Star Federation will not forget its original intention, carry it out from beginning to end, and leave a lasting mark on the tombstone of human civilization; how I hope that hundreds of millions of years from now, the Star Federation will History should not be compared with that of other ordinary human countries History is mixed together and disappears without a trace, but it can leave behind its own unique spirit, generous and fierce ending, and use the greatest spirit and the firmest faith to turn it into rows of dazzling epitaphs, and continue to go on.
Inspiring a brand new civilization after hundreds of millions of years!
