FVN Chapter 1856 The Cultivator Association is Established!
Chapter 1856 The Cultivator Association is Established!
"As expected... a Nascent Soul cultivator is invincible!"
"The ancient records of the sect are correct; all beings below the Nascent Soul stage are but ants..."
"Is this... the true majesty of a Venerable One?"
Countless thoughts flashed through everyone's minds, a mixture of fear, awe, and shock.
Amidst this overwhelming pressure—
"Since you have such a magnanimous heart, I am willing to lead the entire Kunyue Sect to lend you a helping hand!"
In the third row from the left, an elderly man in a moon-white robe with a refined appearance stepped forward and bowed deeply.
He was none other than the Kunyue Sect's patriarch, "Illusory Moon True Lord," a half-saint with considerable prestige among immortal forces.
This move was astonishing.
"Damn it!
"That old man Huan Yue beat me to it!"
"That old fox is quick on his feet!"
Many semi-saints cursed inwardly, regretting their actions to the core.
Whoever expresses their opinion first will leave a deep impression on this senior cultivator and will surely gain an advantage in the new landscape.
"I am willing to serve you, senior, and help you quell the chaos!"
"Suppressing unrest is also my lifelong wish!"
"Our Heavenly Fire Sect is willing to serve you like a dog or a horse!"
……
In an instant, representatives from sects whose lineages were incomplete rushed to express their opinions.
The sounds rose and fell, each person afraid of being a step too late.
The half-saints from the top immortal sects exchanged glances and communicated secretly through divine sense.
After a while——
"Our Ten Thousand Immortals Sect is willing to be the vanguard of the seniors and quell all turmoil."
A half-respected elder from the Ten Thousand Immortals Sect, an old Taoist in purple robes, stepped forward, his voice steady and calm.
As one of the leaders of the righteous path of humanity, his statement is of great significance.
"The Immortal Merging Sect seconded the proposal."
"The Guiyuan Immortal Sect is willing to obey your orders, senior."
"The Taixu Sword Sect..."
One after another, the top righteous immortal sects spoke up.
The tide has turned. If they remain reserved, they will not only offend this Nascent Soul cultivator, but may also be marginalized in the future landscape.
So far!
Only the top demonic sects remained silent within the hall.
All eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, were drawn to the area on the right.
Blood Demon Lord felt countless gazes upon him, his face darkening beneath his black cloak.
He secretly communicated with demonic giants such as the Primordial Soul Palace and the Supreme Holy Sect through divine thought:
"what to do?
To agree or not to agree?
"You won't agree?"
Do you think you'll be able to leave this hall today?
"We both felt the power of the Divine Transformation."
"Joining forces might allow one or two to escape, but the sect's foundation..."
"That's it, the tide has turned."
"First, feign compliance; later, devise a different strategy."
After a brief exchange—
"As human cultivators, we do not wish to see our own kind kill each other and waste our resources."
A middle-aged scholar with a pale face and deep-set eyes, a half-saint of the Primordial Soul Palace, slowly stepped forward and bowed, saying:
"Since you are determined to quell the chaos, our sect will do our utmost to help you."
"Blood Fiend Sect seconded the motion."
"The Supreme Holy Teachings are willing to obey the orders of our seniors."
"..."
The demonic sects bowed down one after another.
At this point, all the factions within the main hall had expressed their support.
On the high platform, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Cheng Buzheng's eyes.
really!
In this world of cultivation where great power resides within oneself, cultivation level is fundamental.
No matter how cunning or powerful you are, you can only bow down before absolute power.
A faint smile appeared on his face:
"I am very pleased that you young friends are concerned about the greater good of humanity."
He paused, then continued:
"In order to better unify the power of the human race and quell the turmoil as soon as possible, I propose to form a new alliance that includes all forces, named the [Cultivator Association]."
What are your thoughts?
The people in the hall were shaken, but no one showed any surprise.
I expected this.
"I have no objection!"
"Your insight is excellent; this move will indeed maximize the integration of resources."
"The Monks' Guild... What a great name!"
A chorus of agreement followed.
Whatever their thoughts, no one dared to object at that moment.
at this time--
On the right side of the demonic path, a black-robed cultivator at the late Nascent Soul stage hesitated for a moment before steeling himself and stepping forward:
"Senior, there is something I don't understand. I hope you can enlighten me."
brush brush --
Countless eyes were focused on this person.
Many cultivators recognized him as an elder of the Blood Fiend Sect, whose Daoist name was "True Lord Youquan".
On the high platform, Cheng Buzheng remained expressionless:
"speak."
Lord Youquan took a deep breath:
"May I ask, senior, what about the various departments under the original three major alliances—the Zhenhai Alliance, the Tianqiong Alliance, and the Wanfa Alliance?"
And what will happen to its resources, territory, personnel...?
The questions are sharp and get straight to the heart of the matter.
The hall fell silent instantly.
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the answer.
Some astute cultivators subtly glanced at the location of the Blood Fiend Sect's half-venerable—
How dare True Monarch Youquan, a mere late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, ask such a sensitive question in this setting?
Without authorization, this would be absolutely impossible.
This is testing.
To test the bottom line of this senior cultivator, and to explore the distribution of benefits in the future new landscape.
On the high platform, Cheng Buzheng glanced indifferently at Youquan Zhenjun, and then seemingly casually swept his gaze over the Blood Fiend Sect Half-Saint.
That one glance made the Blood Fiend Sect's half-master freeze, as if he were being stared at by a prehistoric beast.
But Cheng Buzheng did not react; he simply said calmly:
"That's a good question, young friend."
I believe this is something you all care about.
His voice echoed throughout the hall:
"The entire structure of the original three major alliances will be taken over by the [Cultivator Association]."
As for the personnel arrangements…
Cheng Buzheng paused, his gaze sharp as lightning:
"The capable rise, the mediocre fall."
I do not care what sect or faction you belong to, whether you are righteous or demonic—
Anyone with the ability can take up a position.
Upon hearing this, many people's eyes lit up.
Especially those from ordinary sects.
In the original three major alliances, important positions were basically monopolized by top sects, and they had little chance to rise in the ranks.
Now it seems this senior cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage is going to break down the barriers of social class?
But Cheng Buzheng's next words sent a chill down everyone's spine:
"The primary responsibility of the Cultivator Association is to maintain stability in the cultivation world and protect the foundation of our human race."
"I hereby establish my first prohibition—"
His voice suddenly turned cold, each word distinct and deliberate:
Those who destroy the spiritual veins shall be executed!
"His relatives, descendants, and mortal bloodline will all be implicated."
"Regardless of the reason, regardless of the level of cultivation, regardless of what one relies on..."
Cheng Buzheng's gaze slowly swept across the entire room, each word striking like a heavy hammer blow to everyone's hearts:
"None of them shall be pardoned."
"If the association's law enforcement cultivators are unable to kill him, they may report to the main body—"
A cold glint flashed in his eyes:
"I will personally suppress and kill him."
As the last six words were spoken, the temperature in the entire hall plummeted.
A chill ran down everyone's spine.
They truly realized that this senior cultivator was by no means a soft-hearted person.
The iron will beneath those calm words sent chills down the spines of even the most seasoned cultivators present, who were accustomed to life and death.
Damaging a spiritual vein was a major taboo in the past, but there was always room for maneuver.
When disciples of major sects make mistakes, the sects usually punish them themselves.
In certain special circumstances (such as life-or-death feuds or war), one side may turn a blind eye.
but now……
Collective punishment!
The Nascent Soul stage cultivator personally intervened to suppress and kill!
This means that from now on, destroying spiritual veins will become an inviolable iron law in the cultivation world.
Anyone who violates this rule, no matter how powerful their background, will face certain death.
"Your senior is wise!"
True Monarch Huan Yue spoke first again, his voice filled with reverence:
"Spiritual veins are the foundation of our human race. Destroying spiritual veins is like severing the lifeline of our race!"
This ban should be enacted!
"I second that!"
"As it should be!"
The voices of agreement rose again, but this time they sounded more genuine.
After all, spiritual veins are related to the cultivation path of all cultivators, and protecting spiritual veins is in everyone's long-term interest.
Cheng Buzheng nodded slightly and continued:
"In addition to maintaining stability, the association will also set up a 'Conquest Hall' to be in charge of external conquests, suppressing all rebellions and eradicating evil cultivators."
Establish the 'Transmission Pavilion' to organize all the martial arts techniques in the world, select the best ones to pass on, and improve the overall strength of the human race;
Establish the 'Alchemy Department,' 'Weapon Forging Department,' and 'Formation Department' to coordinate resources and improve all aspects of cultivation..."
He explained the association's structure point by point, with a clear vision and meticulous planning.
The more they listened, the more alarmed they became.
This senior colleague did not act on a whim, but had a complete plan in mind from the beginning.
If this framework can be implemented, the human race's power will be integrated in an unprecedented way, far exceeding the efficiency of the original three independent alliances.
Of course, this also means that the existing pattern of interests will be completely broken.
"The above is the general framework of the association."
After Cheng Buzheng finished speaking, he looked at everyone:
"Detailed rules will be announced here in three days."
At that time, the association's first council of elders will be elected, and the heads of each department will be determined.
He paused, then softened his tone:
"You may stay in Zhenhai City for the next three days."
Zhenhai Alliance has prepared accommodations for everyone.
If you need to leave for urgent matters, you may inform the deity.
"Alright, that's enough for today."
Cheng Buzheng stood up:
"I hope that you will all prioritize the greater good of humanity, work together, and overcome this difficult time."
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure blurred slightly and then disappeared from the high platform.
Until this moment...
The suffocating pressure of the Nascent Soul stage within the hall finally dissipated.
"call--"
Many people breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that their backs were soaked with cold sweat.
The thousands of cultivators looked at each other, their expressions complex.
quickly!
The thousands of cultivators inside the hall left in twos and threes.
at the same time……
The side hall of the Zhenhai Alliance Master's Hall was completely silent.
Only the occasional faint light emitted from the jade slip illuminated Cheng Buzheng's pensive profile.
He has made this place his daily rest and planning retreat.
Cheng Buzheng sat upright in the large black jade chair, his fingertips unconsciously stroking his smooth chin, his eyes filled with thoughts as turbulent as the deep sea.
"Although I have already designed more than twenty departments and the basic structure is complete,"
But upon closer reflection now, I still feel there are shortcomings…
"but!
It's not too late now; the specific details will be announced in three days.
"It's not impossible for me to make some revisions now."
He thought to himself.
The cultivation world is vast and boundless, with numerous sects and independent cultivators everywhere.
Countless hidden realms and spiritual veins lie hidden in the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas.
Although the three major alliances previously had their own oversight systems, the overlapping of powers and responsibilities and the influence of personal relationships often resulted in the oversight efforts remaining superficial.
The status of spiritual veins in remote areas is particularly difficult to monitor in real time.
"Although the Surveillance Hall unites the three parties and its authority covers the whole world, its manpower is ultimately limited."
Cheng Buzheng shook his head slightly.
"The endless sea is vast and boundless, dotted with islands, and the inland area is even more expansive."
Relying solely on the existing cultivators patrolling, it would likely take a century to thoroughly inspect the safety of every spiritual vein.
He recalled the reported incidents of broken spiritual veins in recent years—
Most of these are small to medium-sized spiritual veins, often discovered only by chance after the spiritual energy has been depleted for many years.
Some of these incidents were even concealed by local authorities until the spiritual veins were completely destroyed, at which point the truth could no longer be hidden.
Large spiritual veins are in a slightly better situation because they are guarded by Nascent Soul cultivators, but it is still difficult to guarantee that there are no oversights.
That's why...
Although the three major alliances had dealt severely with those who destroyed spiritual veins, some spiritual veins still broke every year for various reasons.
"The main factor is that the original monitoring system relied too much on 'casual inspections' and lacked dedicated personnel."
Cheng Buzheng's gaze gradually sharpened.
"It needs to be re-divided—"
The inspectors were divided into two groups, one of which was responsible for maintaining order and intelligence in places where cultivators gathered, such as immortal cities and markets.
Another group formed 'Spirit Vein Patrolmen', who were responsible for surveying, recording, and protecting the condition of various spirit veins.
In particular, remote spiritual veins should be inspected regularly to ensure early detection and reporting.
"Not only the Inspection Department, but other departments also need to be subdivided."
He sighed softly, feeling a surge of confusion.
"Weapon crafting, alchemy, spiritual plant cultivation, criminal law, war preparedness, exploration of secret realms, cultivator registers..."
The original structure was too bloated, with unclear responsibilities and a tendency for people to pass the buck when problems arose.
It must be like the county and prefectural government offices of mortal dynasties, with clearly defined departments and each department having its own responsibilities.
Thinking of this, Cheng Buzheng suddenly paused.
A government office for ordinary people?
correct……
A sudden flash of understanding crossed his eyes.
"It seems I've found a reference point."
In that instant, a nearly forgotten memory from a past life surfaced from the depths of his consciousness—
That was a sentence he happened to glimpse online when he was still living the "blessing" life of 996:
How many units are there in a county?
Out of curiosity, I clicked on it and saw a densely packed list of over a hundred departments.
From government affairs to people's livelihood, from public security to education, it covers almost everything under its jurisdiction.
Although he only caught a fleeting glimpse at the time, ever since his reincarnation and embarkment on the path of immortality...
All memories from past and present lives are as clear as if they were engraved!
Even the smallest fragment of the past...
It can also be accessed at any time.

The names and functions of those hundred-plus departments unfolded in his mind like a scroll:
