However, even with high-grade Barrier-Breaking Stones, it was impossible to shatter a region's isolation belt, because the two powers were fundamentally different. The isolation belt was a barrier formed by a region's attribute power, and the Barrier-Breaking Stone's power found it difficult to break through.
Unfortunately, the Void-Severing Belt could be no wider than five thousand li. Zhao Fu had wanted to make it broader—anyone wishing to enter Xianyang would have to travel on foot, and the wider the Void-Severing Belt, the more time it would take, allowing for multiple ambushes.

Then came the region's attribute bonuses. As the official authority of a region, Great Qin could receive a 10% boost to basic attributes, while invaders would suffer a 10% reduction to their attributes.

However, Regional Guards received additional boosts within the region they governed, and their effectiveness might surpass Great Qin's troop grade. But if they went to another region, they
