For the time being, Jiang Ping'an no longer needed to race about everywhere. He began tackling two matters: first, how to swiftly raise the overall cultivation of Great An Kingdom's army; second, how to obtain the Thousand Mile Landscape Painting.
During the last defense against the Celestial Race army's assault, Great An Kingdom had lost a vast number of elite troops.

As for the Thousand Mile Landscape Painting, he was even more determined to obtain it.
First, if Great Continent Island joined the war, whether its cultivators landed in the Eastern Wilderness to confront the Celestial Race head-on or came ashore in the Central Wastelands to ambush them from behind, they would need to undertake an enormous transfer spanning more than a million miles.
