The Zhao Region border battlefield had been a meat grinder for half a month since the fighting began, with broken bodies littering the ground everywhere, some pulverized by bombardment and others dead from being besieged.
Both sides had to tend to these bodies, for this was the border. Should demons or monsters rise from the corpses, one could not tell which side they might join. The local forces were already struggling; the emergence of additional demonic adversaries would be a true loss, potentially ruining their foundations even if the Demonic Path hadn't yet done so.
After battling to a certain extent, the fighting would naturally stall, and both sides would spontaneously clean up the corpses before resuming their fierce combat.
With multiple fronts erupting into conflict, after half a month of continuous fighting, no one was in good condition.
