The Dao Sect's coastal defense line is extremely vast, and it's impossible to station forces everywhere. Instead, we can only occupy key points and respond to incidents as they arise.
Fortunately, after slaughtering many demonic beast powerhouses before, only scattered smaller demons dare to come near these days. Significant demon clans are now hesitant to cross over readily.
Of course, the absence of demons doesn't mean the Dao Sect can neglect its defenses. History in this realm shows that the number of overseas demons is quite substantial, their total number surpassing the combined cultivators of Divine Land by several multiples.
The only reason they don't affect the mainland is that their disparate tribes have a complex web of interests even more intricate than the mainland sects and are constantly at war with each other offshore.
