you can opt for a batch in that case
call batch from trigger

Hi,

Please invoke a batch class from apex trigger and use Database.QueryLocator.

 If you use a QueryLocator object, the governor limit for the total number of records retrieved by SOQL queries is bypassed. For example, a batch Apex job for the Account object can return a QueryLocatorfor all account records (up to 50 million records) in an org. Another example is a sharing recalculation for the Contact object that returns a QueryLocator for all account records in an org.

Please refer to the below link to learn more about batch apex

Thanks
