However… I never thought about this before. If I had to do it, then I had to keep taking forces and send them into that pocket world.

Doing so meant I’d always suck forces away from the training grounds.

[We have something we need to do] I sent to Lily, the one who was responsible for such a project.

It was that ancient recipe of Hectors, the one that would form potions and let my soldiers step into the world of cultivation on top of pyramids.

I witnessed how hard and challenging it was. But it was the only way.

[What?]

[Where are you now?]

[At the second training ground, at the southern continent doing things… Look, if it’s not urgent, then can we postpone it for later?]

[No, it can’t be delayed] delay? We already delayed it long enough, [I want you to wait for me. And during this, select capable generals to lead all of your tasks here]

[This… Why go so far?]

[Also leave orders to always select capable soldiers and prepare to send them away. I’ll prepare portals at each training grounds for them to be sent away]

[Hye… You are scaring me!]

[Don’t worry, it’s just something urgent and we have to deal with it] I looked into the old Man’s eyes, [Prepare yourself. I’ll come in less than an hour]

[O… Ok!]

I had to give her time so she’d get everything done properly. The leading general? I already got a name in mind, one that she’d entrust with this task; Legend.

“Lord…”

“Not now,” I pointed to old Gan to remain quiet while I opened another chat.

[I need you to prepare lots of workers, lots of materials and gears and be ready to gather up at the portal site]

[You mean the bomb site? Hahahaha! You are still thinking it’s a portal site, funny]

[Just do it as fast as you can, ok?]

[Is… Something wrong?]

[Nothing, just a small hiccup and we’ll get through it indeed]

[Tell me…]

[Not now. Just do as I say for now, ok?]

Well, I had to admit, I panicked a little here. Facing an enemy that only cultivation based energy and attacks would work against?

I got lots of my forces to step into cultivation, but right now they were fighting a brutal war in Texas!

Even if I tried my best to replace them, it was pointless. Lots of time would pass and also that war needed to be solved.

I had to suck such losses, and prayed that the jerk wouldn’t end up killing most of them.

Or else… I might go and kill him myself!

“Lord…”

“What?” I wasn’t just scared, but I got a ton of anger.

Toranks… They knew all this and didn’t let me know about any? Why? That was a question that kept banging in my mind since I heard what old Gan said.

Was old Gan lying? But why would he? And the way he told his tale… Everything told me it wasn’t just a fabricated story, no way!

“There is a way to get lots of force with cultivation,” he paused, and I looked at him as if I was looking at a crazy old man. “Lord is amassing races, many races from all over the universe, right? Humans don’t have any experience at cultivation, or even potential. But other races do.”

“You mean…”

“Lord is using the assets under his control in just a simple way… If lord asked, he’ll be surprised by the number of people with cultivation under his command.”

It suddenly hit me! How didn’t I think about such a thing before?

“Lord has just to arrange for people…”

[Send out a large number of your people… Ask around, make every single one of our people and soldiers answer this simple question: Does anyone have a cultivation base?]

I didn’t wait for old Gan to complete his words. I wasn’t acting rude, but I was too damn excited about what he said.

I suddenly recalled something… Many of my acquired races and humans looked like they just came out of brutal war.

I once had a theory about their origin… I linked them with the betting worlds and the fierce wars going on there.

And what was the main condition for any powerhouse to send forces there? His forces ought to have cultivation bases, right?

It was a simple piece of knowledge that passed through my mind without linking it with anything yet.

But right now… This simple little piece of news is great to be something that would save my life, many lives.

[Ask them about what?!!] Angelica must have been thinking that I went insane or something, [Can’t you tell me what’s going on?]

[Are you free? If so then come to the portal zone. I’ll be there in one hour. I’ll explain things when we meet, but first…]

[I know… I know… And what about your first request?]

[I need that too] I knew I had a way to get many forces with cultivation, but that wouldn’t include my humans.

And right now I got to realise how bad it was that I neglected such an old project of mine for so long.

If I kept working on it, moved it here as I planned earlier, then things would have gone for the better.

I once asked Lily to move everything here, and she did. But we didn’t have time to start that project as big wars kept raging on, one after another.

“So…” as I got finished, old Gan was still having his shocked face, yet from his voice I felt immense excitement.

“You’ll start gathering up whoever you need,” I said before raising one finger on his face, “but don’t take too much to affect people working here, got it?”

“Yes, lord. But… When can I get one?”

“Soon,” I intended to bring them in a few days, but right now it was better to bring them once I was done with all these urgent things.
