In these years, Sui continued to implement the development strategy of Suiming City, governing his subjects while again increasing the number of soldiers.
Using those soldiers who had experienced the great war as the backbone, he formed dozens of new legions, the original army of sixty thousand multiplied several times, reaching more than one hundred fifty thousand.
Meanwhile, although a number of Cultivators at the Communicating with God Realm had died in the battle with the Rain Clan, those Demigod Strong who survived benefited immensely, coupled with Pei Xuanjing's guidance and Sui's vigorous support with resources, three more broke through to Demigod, and countless more advanced to the Communicating with God Realm.
Even though there had been no expansion in these years, as Suiming City grew stronger, naturally the area it influenced also expanded significantly, resulting in a manifold increase in its territory compared to before.
