Many Old Ancestors had gathered for a meeting.
This gathering was not only meant to select an Alliance Leader.
Below the Alliance Leader, there would be two envoys, one of Light and one of Darkness. One would oversee internal coordination, education and pacification, and resource allocation; the other would lead external campaigns, purge rebels, and control punishments.
The two envoys would wield great authority, second only to the Alliance Leader. They would be the Alliance Leader's right-hand men.
Below the two envoys would be the Nine Dao Protector Dharma Kings.
The Dharma Kings had to possess profound Cultivation Levels. Each would guard a region and oversee different war zones and major affairs of the alliance, such as defense, offense, intelligence, formations, pills and artifacts, inheritances, and more. They would possess immense autonomy and decision-making power, serving as the alliance's nine pillars.
Below the Dharma Kings would be the Twenty-Four Heavens Dao Protector Divine Generals. The Divine Generals had to be brave and skilled in battle, capable commanders of troops. They would be the direct commanders and frontline officers of the alliance army, holding great military power and serving as the key figures who charged into battle and determined victory or defeat on the battlefield."
The rest, according to their Cultivation Levels, merits, and abilities, could receive positions such as elders, protectors, and inspectors, enjoying the corresponding authority, responsibilities, and resources."
This was the core power structure, with a total of Thirty-Six Core Seats. One Alliance Leader, two envoys of Light and Darkness, nine Dharma Kings, and twenty-four Divine Generals—thirty-six in total.
Whoever obtained one would hold the alliance's great authority and command the living beings of the myriad worlds. Its power and glory would far surpass that of the ruler of a single Immortal Realm. It would be an achievement
