"Venerable Fang is absolutely right. We agree."
As the leader of the Heavenly Realms Alliance, he had previously stood aloof from the many disputes, neither approving nor disapproving. Now that he had personally stepped in to settle their plans, he clearly intended to bring the hammer down and make the final decision.
The others could find no reason not to support him, either, and voiced their agreement one after another.
"Later, every member faction will send representatives to take part in the deliberations. We must finalize the plans for the campaign against Zhilin World as soon as possible, then put them into action."
The Heavenly Realms Alliance's otherworldly expeditions had stalled for a time. Although ordinary cultivators saw them continuing to reap the harvests of the worlds they already held, the assembled dignitaries all understood that unless they quickly found a new world and opened up fresh sources of profit, the alliance's foundations would inevitably suffer.
Fortunately, this world had appeared just in time to meet everyone's needs.
It was clear that, in the days ahead, they would once again enter a glorious stretch of plentiful harvests.
Several days later, the Heavenly Realms Alliance mobilized in full, spreading the welcome news of the newly discovered world throughout the Five Regions and in every direction.
The Ten Great Sects, the Five Great Aristocratic Clans, and the permanently neutral Pill Sect and Artifact Sect already represented more than half the Spirit Tamers of their native world.
The Heavenly Realms Alliance also enjoyed the support of rogue cultivator factions from both the righteous and demonic paths, accounting for several more tenths of that strength.
When the alliance's resolutions brought them together to direct all their strength toward a single goal, it meant that the entire Mystic School Cultivation World would be mobilized.
