"The last item on the agenda of the conference is now, Taishang elder nomination election."
Heavenly Emperor Body said.
There was a slight commotion in the theater, and everyone could see clearly that after the establishment of Grand Elders Committee, the elder Taishang could be said to play a decisive role in the Nine Mountains Sect.
"Now I announce the requirements for the candidates for the first Taishang elders."
"First, the cultivation level is above Spirit Transformation."
"Second, the term is ten thousand years and cannot be re-elected."
"Third, the tentative total number is eleven."
Heavenly Emperor Body paused and then said, "Besides these three requirements, anyone can be nominated."
"Now, please list eleven candidates from Comprehensive Mirror who you think are qualified to serve as elders of Taishang."
"We will count everyone's nominations and select the eleven people with the most votes."
Regarding the selection of elder Taishang, Zheng Fa had the crudest idea, almost without any restrictions and allowing Nine Mountains disciples to vote.
For him, this may be his path--
In fact, today's Nine Mountains Immortal Court system actually only has two more things than before.
One is General Assembly, which is to encourage all disciples of the Nine Mountains Sect to play their role, put forward their own ideas, and indirectly govern Nine Mountains Sect through voting and election.
One is Divine Way Inspectorate, which is to ensure the interests of the common people and allow the common people to have their own voice channels.
Therefore, in the choice of Grand Elders Committee, Zheng Fa gives these disciples the greatest freedom - allowing them to choose the Taishang elder who can represent their own wishes. His sermon on Great Luo Dharma Assembly is not Cheng Kong.
As for whether there will be problems, Zheng Fa is actually not sure about this.
But just like Heavenly Emperor Body said to Uncle-Master Pang, try it first, otherwise he doesn't know whether this set of things can be extended to the entire Xuanwei or even all the worlds.
He and Senior Sister Zhang and others also thought that even if something went wrong, with his current prestige and Nine Mountains Sect's situation, it would not be difficult to correct the chaos. What they were afraid of was that when Nine Mountains Sect became stronger in the future, it would be difficult to turn back.
Many disciples looked at me and I looked at you, and they all began to think about it. After a while, they started to vote for nominations.
Soon, the voting results came out.
Most of the names on the list are not surprising.
The first one is of course Zheng Fa, and the second one is Senior Sister Zhang.
Uncle-Master Pang and Old Yuan were also among them, but Aunt-Master Huang was only ranked thirteenth. It was a pity that she was not selected. She didn't seem to be a pity, and she even felt happy that she had finally retired.
Xie Qingxue, as the commander of Divine Firmament Fleet, performed extremely brilliantly in the last battle, and he was among them today.
Xiao Yuying ranked ninth.
In addition, Madam Xuanhua received a high number of votes and ranked fourth. Heavenly Crafts Pavilion is the department that has made the greatest contribution in the door, so she can also assume this position.
These seven people were already anticipated by Heavenly Emperor Body, and they were originally the top executives of the Nine Mountains Sect.
But the other four people also surprised him.
The first one is Nine Nether Emperor.
Heavenly Emperor Body thought about it and finally understood that Xuanwei Realm is the master of cultivation after all, and Nine Nether Emperor is now the dean of Inspectorate, so everyone naturally takes a closer look.
The second is Qian True Person. Qian True Person has advanced to Spirit Transformation for more than ten years. On weekdays, he mostly stays at the Agriculture Academy to train disciples and Spirit Plant. In fact, he doesn't show much publicity. I don't know why the number of votes is so high - later Only then did Zheng Fa realize that Qian True Person and Agriculture Academy were not prominent in the Nine Mountains Sect, but they had a high reputation in the secular world. The disciples of the Nine Mountains all came from the secular world, and they actually always had the name Qian True Person in their hearts.
There is also Dragon Lord Shuyu. This is probably based on cultivation and identity. The other party represents Sea Region.
But the most unexpected thing is that his disciple Gu Chang, who just Spirit Transformation, was elected as the Taishang elder.
But if you think about it carefully, you can understand that Spirit-Root Improvement Method has a great influence on the monks.
If Gu Chang hadn't lived in a simple way and paid little attention to worldly affairs, he would probably have more prestige in the family.
Therefore, the eleven people of Grand Elders Committee are:
Zheng Fa, Senior Sister Zhang, Uncle-Master Pang, Old Yuan, Xiao Yuying, Xie Qingxue, Madam Xuanhua, Nine Nether Emperor, Qian True Person, Dragon Lord Shuyu and Gu Chang.
"I declare that the first General Assembly is closed! In the future, the General Assembly will be held every thousand years to vote on proposals and review laws."
After all the disciples started talking and dispersed, Heavenly Emperor Body found Senior Sister Zhang and Madam Xuanhua and walked towards Nine Nether Emperor.
Nine Nether Emperor seemed a little curious and asked, "What does Grand Elders Committee say?"
Heavenly Emperor Body explained slightly, "In daily life, Immortal Court makes the decision by Grand Elders Committee, and Administrative Council is responsible for executing it."
"Inspectorate's role is to supervise."
Nine Nether Emperor nodded slowly and asked, "How is the resolution formed?"
"Discuss and vote." Heavenly Emperor Body explained, "Regardless of the level of cultivation, the minority obeys the majority. Once a decision is made, no one is allowed to defy it."
Nine Nether Emperor nodded silently, as if trying to figure out the meaning.
This term's selection of elders Taishang and Zheng Fa are quite satisfactory:
He and Senior Sister Zhang are old Nine Mountains Sect people who can continue to stabilize Nine Mountains Sect and grasp the future direction.
The most important thing is that Qian True Person, Madam Xuanhua, Xiao Yuying and even Gu Chang, a group of people with academic backgrounds, have entered the committee.
In Zheng Fa's vision, Nine Mountains Sect is used to lead Immortal Court forward. Learning and research are the background of the Nine Mountains Sect. People like Qian True Person are used to represent major colleges and research institutions.
As for Nine Nether Emperor, Dragon Lord Shuyu and others, they are representatives of the peripheral forces of the Nine Mountains Sect.
Basically, the interests of all parties are taken care of.
Nine Nether Emperor thought for a long time, then raised his head, looked at the three Heavenly Emperor Body, and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
Heavenly Emperor Body laughed, a little embarrassed, and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide it from the emperor."
He looked at Senior Sister Zhang, and Senior Sister Zhang said, "Now that the emperor is also a member of Immortal Court, there are some things that we cannot hide from the emperor."
"I, Nine Mountains Sect, am short of money now."
Nine Nether Emperor thought for a moment and understood the reason, and couldn't help but shake his head. "You Nine Mountains Sect have too many disciples."
There are more than 600,000 disciples, which is unprecedented in the entire Xuanwei.
More importantly, these disciples' cultivation speed is extremely fast - just like Gu Chang, he is intelligent and relatively indifferent in nature. After solving his Spirit Root problems, his cultivation level has improved by leaps and bounds, which is no worse than Zheng Fa's back then.
"It was fine in the past. We had Sea Region trade routes and the resources of Supreme Dao and Jade Pool." Senior Sister Zhang said helplessly, "Now the situation has changed dramatically, and my Nine Mountains Sect's income has begun to drop sharply."
"... How about reducing the number of disciples?"
Nine Nether Emperor frowned and asked.
Senior Sister Zhang was silent for a moment and said, "This is not in line with junior brother's ideas... On the other hand, I don't want to either."
"Why?"
"Junior brother needs to rely on the audience to practice now...Nine Mountains The more disciples there are, the faster junior brother can practice."
Nine Nether Emperor looked at Senior Sister Zhang and seemed to think of another person. His expression became much gentler and he said again, "So you are looking for me?"
"Yes, we hope the emperor will allow us to develop Underworld."
If it were in the past, Nine Nether Emperor was not one of the Nine Mountains Sect's own, and Senior Sister Zhang would not be so direct.
But it's different now.
Nine Nether Emperor is the elder Nine Mountains Sect Taishang, or the dean Inspectorate. On the contrary, we should be more honest.
Nine Nether Emperor laughed when he heard it, and said, "This matter... it's not that Non-Self doesn't want to do it, but that Underworld really doesn't have anything good."
Senior Sister Zhang was stunned and looked at Heavenly Emperor Body, even Heavenly Emperor Body frowned.
Nine Mountains Sect actually has a big financial problem, so the sect has already begun to make plans for the Northern Continent.
But Immortal Court is not without potential.
The first is the newly occupied North Sea, the second is Vast Sun Mountain, and the third, which is the place they have the most high hopes for, is Underworld.
Underworld is extremely special. It is connected to the heavens and its area is getting larger and larger. It is simply a virgin land.
Heavenly Emperor Body looked at Yan Changge, and saw Yan Changge nodding helplessly towards him, seeming a little depressed. "Sect Leader, you have also been to Underworld, but do you still remember what happened in Underworld?"
Heavenly Emperor Body frowned and said hesitantly, "I think although Underworld is not suitable for Human Race to survive, Spiritual Qi is quite sufficient."
"Yes, there is Spiritual Qi." Yan Changge shook his head and said, "But there is no spiritual material."
"No spiritual materials?"
"There are no spiritual materials, spiritual grass, or spiritual beasts." Yan Changge said helplessly, "There are no resources that can help with cultivation. Nowadays, there are more and more ghosts. I am waiting at Underworld. It is really busy. When I wait out, the emperor is still responsible for controlling Reincarnation, and he will not stop for a day..."
"This..."
Looking at Yan Changge's miserable face, which is all due to fatigue, Heavenly Emperor Body has to believe that Underworld is really miserable now.
Of course it is understandable - Nine Nether Emperor became Grand Unity Golden Immortal with the help of Underworld, and now the debt has been paid off.
Nine Nether Emperor spoke, "If you don't believe it, you can send someone to take a look."
"It's not that I don't believe in the emperor... I just didn't expect Underworld to be in such a situation." Heavenly Emperor Body shook his head, glanced at Senior Sister Zhang again, thought for a long time, and insisted. "Of course, we still hope that the emperor can allow Nine Mountains disciples to enter the exploration."
"Of course."
Nine Nether Emperor is quite generous, or in other words, he doesn't care and doesn't seem to be optimistic about it.
Since Nine Nether Emperor agreed, Heavenly Emperor Body changed the topic and smiled at Nine Nether Emperor, "The Emperor is here for the first time Nine Mountains Sect, why don't you come with me to visit?"
Nine Nether Emperor is now also very interested in the Nine Mountains Sect and follows Heavenly Emperor Body out.
The place they arrived first was Heavenly Crafts Pavilion.
"The emperor should know that the most mature thing about our Nine Mountains Sect is the method of refining weapons."
Nine Nether Emperor nodded and looked at the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion.
Heavenly Crafts Pavilion now occupies seven floating islands, which are very large in scale, with manufacturing workshops, laboratories, and designs lined up in rows.
"This is...Immortal-Slayer Sword?"
"Yes, we are thinking about improving Immortal-Slayer Sword to make Immortal-Slayer Sword Formation more powerful."
Nine Nether Emperor pursed his lips, seeming to think of the Nine Mountains Sect, Immortal-Slayer Sword Formation who could kill Golden Immortal, and his expression was a little cautious.
Furthermore, he also had a lot of respect for the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion.
"Heavenly Crafts Pavilion has several main projects."
Madam Xuanhua introduced.
"Four Immortal-Slayer Swords's improvement, the emperor just saw it."
Nine Nether Emperor nodded.
"The second is the design and manufacturing of the new version Sun-Shooting Divine Bow."
"Sun-Shooting Divine Bow?"
"Yes, after the last actual combat of the Sun-Shooting Army, we have a lot of ideas and some improvement ideas for Sun-Shooting Divine Bow. The consumption of the next generation Sun-Shooting Divine Bow should be reduced by 30%."
Nine Nether Emperor was shocked. "Thirty percent?"
"Yes."
Nine Nether Emperor was silent for a moment, and then he praised, "Not only is Immortal-Slayer Sword Formation more powerful in your hands, this Sun-Shooting Divine Bow also shines brilliantly, can it go one step further now? You Heavenly Crafts Pavilion is really amazing."
He couldn't help but look at Madam Xuanhua with a more solemn look.
Madam Xuanhua chuckled, glanced at Heavenly Emperor Body, and saw that he had no intention of stopping him, then said, "In addition to these two improvement projects, we also have two key projects."
"What?"
"One is another improved version of Divine Firmament Warship."
"Divine Firmament Warship I know." Nine Nether Emperor sounded very curious, "It seems that Xie Qingxue is the fleet commander?"
"She came up with the idea."
Madam Xuanhua smiled and said, "She said that we can connect flying swords with battleships to develop a set...Unmanned Warship."
"..."
There were some question marks on Nine Nether Emperor's face, as if he didn't understand, and Yan Changge on the side also had a look on his face like this.
Seeing their expressions, Madam Xuanhua explained, "This kind of Unmanned Warship is not for attacking the enemy, but for reconnaissance."
"Investigation?"
"Yes, use it as the node of Thick-Earth Magnetism Formation and lock the enemy to the Sun-Shooting Army."
"..." Yan Changge's eyelids twitched, and he immediately understood the terrifying meaning of this, "Expand Sun-Shooting Army's attack range?"
"Exactly."
These Nine Nether Emperor also know why this thing is the key project of the Heavenly Crafts Pavilion - Sun-Shooting Army was previously limited to Thick-Earth Magnetism Formation, and its scope was also limited. If this kind of Unmanned Warship is formed, it will really matter where it comes from.
"Speaking of which, this thing actually has something to do with Yan Wushuang, and the first version of the design also combines Ten Directions All-Hearing from Old Han."
Yan Changge listened to the Tianhe Sect's old man's contribution, and couldn't help but feel a little proud.
A group of people walked and watched, and finally arrived outside a large factory.
"What is this made of?"
"This is my Heavenly Crafts Pavilion's most important project in the near future." Madam Xuanhua led everyone into the factory.
There are many disciples in the factory, who are assembling a huge Law Treasure.
This Law Treasure is in the shape of a disc, standing on the ground, with countless runes engraved on it, and Yin-Yang Fish and Bagua drawn in the middle.
"This is..."
"This is my treasure of enlightenment, Heavenly Derivation Array Disk." Senior Sister Zhang introduced, "This array combines my previous Nine-Chapter Calculation Formation with Primordial Eight Trigrams Divine Ability. It has surpassed myself in deduction and calculation."
"..." Nine Nether Emperor looked back at her and said suddenly, "So you are going to achieve Dao Fruit."
"Just wait for this array to take shape."
Senior Sister Zhang's cultivation is a little slower than that of Zheng Fa, but the difference is not big, especially with the help of Zheng Fa's dual cultivation.
Her current purpose is to improve her Life-bound Dharma Treasure-Flying Immortal Brush, which has great advantages over Talisman Dao, before she becomes enlightened. However, her focus is no longer on Talisman Dao, so she has to design another Law Treasure.
"What is the use of this array disk?"
"We are going to hand over tasks such as Merit distribution, performance evaluation and resource allocation to Senior Sister Zhang." Senior Sister Zhang explained, "Even future Nine Mountains General Assembly convenings will slowly be handed over to it. In this way, fairness can be ensured to the greatest extent."
Before Nine Nether Emperor could speak, he heard Senior Sister Zhang say, "In this way, it can also greatly reduce the burden on Administrative Council. In fact..."
She looked at Nine Nether Emperor and said frankly, "We originally wanted to exchange technology for resources."
"Technology for resources?"
"Zheng Fa said that Underworld is particularly busy with affairs. This Heavenly Derivation Array Disk should be very suitable for Underworld Reincarnation. As long as it is set up, it can automatically determine the good and evil of ghosts and classify them into categories... According to our calculations, it can reduce at least 90% of manpower consumption."
Nine Nether Emperor turned his head silently and looked at Heavenly Derivation Array Disk. Yan Changge also looked over, with exactly the same idea in his heart - such a treasure that saves people in distress, but Underworld has no money to buy it!
After a long silence, Nine Nether Emperor licked his lips and said sincerely, "Actually, I still have some savings..."
