My construction materials are weird

"Everyone's here, let's start the meeting."

Sun Hui, hearing Gao Jian's prompt, announced the start of the routine meeting, which also served as a year-end summary.

According to the timeline before the resurgence of the strange, it was currently the end of the year.

"First, Jin Ning and Wu Gang, please introduce the current problems in the wilderness."

Upon being called, Jin Ning stood up and said:

"Hall Master, fellow Daoists, under the supreme guidance of the Xuan Master, and under the leadership of Hall Master Sun Hui, our Martial Dao Alliance currently…"

"The previous plan was to handle the wilderness of Nan City in just over half a year, but the plan has changed, we underestimated the intensity of Blue Star's changes."

"Fellow Daoists, through records, it can be concluded that Blue Star's integration with the myriad realms is accelerating."

"Of course, I'm not talking about large realms like the Blood Moon."

"But rather secret realms, spaces, etc., and in each secret realm space, the probability of a strange existence is one percent, that is, in every hundred such secret realm spaces, there is one with a coexisting strange being."

"Apart from that, there are mostly fierce beasts and dangerous places."

"The number of cultivators injured and sacrificed is also gradually decreasing."

"As for the secret realms with strange beings coexisting, we mainly adopt the method of guarding and besieging. Those that cannot be solved at present will be dealt with in the future."

"Unless it is the kind that poses a great threat to cultivators, there are currently very few such strange beings, and most of them do not cause harm unless one enters the secret realm."

"In addition, we also have experience in dealing with aquatic fierce beasts. Moonfall Lake is the beginning of our confrontation with aquatic fierce beasts."

"Aquatic fierce beasts are very strong and troublesome. But it's half good and half bad, aquatic fierce beasts are also difficult to get ashore."

"And in confronting aerial fierce beasts, we have also accumulated experience. To be honest, as long as we condense the four inscriptions of the Heaven and Earth Furnace, and have the means to fight the enemy, there is not much difference whether the fierce beast is on the ground or in the air."

"The Heaven and Earth Furnace's ability to devour and absorb and the golden flame…"

"We have exchanged countless resource points by killing fierce beasts, a total of…"

"We also provide assistance and experience to the newly entered cultivators in the wilderness through planned development, combined with experienced cultivators…"

"We have formed a series of plans and processes…"

"Hall Master, fellow Daoists, I have finished."

"Clap clap clap—"

Everyone gave applause.

Currently, Wu Gang and Jin Ning are the leaders in the wilderness development.

Everyone is very satisfied with the contributions and work of the two, especially what Jin Ning said, integrating experience and forming a plan process, etc.

These are the most valuable.

"Okay, thank you Wu Gang and Jin Ning and their colleagues for providing us with resource points and bringing us systematic experience."

Sun Hui summarized.

After speaking, he said again: "Vice Hall Master Gao Jian, please talk about the recent progress of Qingyun Mountain and Nan City."

Gao Jian is the Deputy Director-General, but he does the work of the Director-General Sun Hui.

He is the chief housekeeper of the entire Martial Dao Alliance.

"Hall Master, fellow colleagues, currently the number of people in our Qingyun Mountain Martial Dao Alliance is three thousand, the same as the Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism families."

"The entire four major forces have twelve thousand people, and the remaining eighteen thousand are rogue cultivators."

"This is the maximum number given by the Merit Hall. When Qingyun Mountain has not evolved to a certain level, the number of people cannot be increased anymore."

"Director Sun Tong of the Merit Hall said that the Xuan Master also meant the same, keeping Qingyun Mountain at thirty thousand cultivators is enough, and more will be eliminated, and the number given to our four major forces is three thousand."

"It cannot be increased in the short term either."

Gao Jian first told everyone about the current situation of Qingyun Mountain.

Each of the four major forces has three thousand people, which is the instruction given by Qingyun Mountain.

It cannot continue to increase, after all, although the current Qingyun Mountain is getting bigger and taller every day.

But it is not good if the crowd is too dense, not to mention that too many people will dilute the luck, and if the luck is diluted, it will not form the effect of luck blessing.

Therefore, the four families are actually more competitive.

The entry-level four or five levels are the starting point for the four families to stay in Qingyun Mountain.

And the rogue cultivators do not have such a high intensity. Currently, the fourth level is the starting point for rogue cultivators, and the entry-level fifth level is a master.

If the number of the four major forces is not limited, these rogue cultivators will be reduced to less than a thousand people.

Everyone present knows this.

Gao Jian continued: "Therefore, in the past two months, we have focused on tilting resources towards the Nan City Martial Dao Hall. The Nan City Martial Dao Hall can accommodate more people. Currently, we have nearly 40,000 people in the entire Nan City Martial Dao Hall, and it is still increasing."

"Everyone, I have to explain that it is not a solution to continue to increase like this."

"The Nan City Martial Dao Hall is too huge, it won't work to continue like this."

"We need to continue to divert the flow, for example, the Blood Moon Small World can increase the number of people, which can reduce the burden on the Nan City Martial Dao Hall and also develop the Blood Moon Small World."

"Also, the wilderness development of Blue Star needs to continue to increase manpower."

"Before, we only wanted to grow stronger, but now it is time to eliminate the dross and retain the essence."

"We need to give the cultivators of the Martial Dao Hall tasks, and only by completing certain tasks can they stay in the Martial Dao Hall for a long time."

"Otherwise, it is not feasible to rely entirely on volunteering without tasks."

"Not everyone is self-conscious."

"I have received feedback from the Martial Dao Hall that many cultivators believe that their status and resources are a matter of course, and even feel that they should be in Qingyun Mountain, not in Nan City."

"They still have resentment? They feel that the Alliance is not giving them opportunities."

"But, when they are asked to develop the wilderness, they make all kinds of excuses, this is not a solution."

…

Gao Jian directly dropped a big bomb.

Moreover, there are some problems that he did not explicitly state.

In fact, many of the cultivators in Nan City are relatives and family members of the Qingyun Mountain cultivators, or friends, etc.

Relying on their relatives in Qingyun Mountain, these family members and friends are very arrogant.

Seeing everyone frowning.

Some are angry, but the anger is not strong enough, because they don't know if their relatives and friends are among those mentioned by Deputy Director-General Gao Jian.

If their relatives and friends are also among them, it would be embarrassing.

You can't kill everyone with one blow. It is inevitable that there will be good and bad in an organization.

The cultivators in Qingyun Mountain have been screened several times, and their Dao heart, will, and cultivation are all outstanding.

What's more, the competition they face is so fierce that there is no such person as Gao Jian said among them.

That kind of person will not gain a foothold in Qingyun Mountain, and will have been swept away long ago.

But you can't say that about their relatives and friends in Nan City.

Seeing everyone silent, Sun Hui said: "I remember that the Xuan Master's relatives also need to work, right? There are no special privileges, right, Deputy Hall Master Gao Jian? Am I wrong?"

This sentence is too meaningful.

Many people felt ashamed and unbearable when they heard it. Even the Xuan Master's relatives need to work and have no special privileges.

Are your relatives and friends more noble than the Xuan Master's relatives?

"Hall Master, the Xuan Master's relatives should be a model, without making noise or trouble. Even if the major forces give care, they act in a low-key manner, without any arrogant attitude."

Gao Jian said.

The two asked and answered, making many people feel like they were sitting on pins and needles.

Because some high-level officials know that their relatives and friends do not seem to be good things.

Some of the people mentioned by Deputy Director-General Gao Jian, it seems that their family members cannot escape.

"The New Year is coming soon, and next year is a new beginning. I believe you can solve it well. … Otherwise, the Alliance Judicial Hall can only come forward."

Sun Hui said lightly, which is to put a comma on this matter.

As for why it is not a period?

It is because if someone is not decent, the Alliance will help them be decent.

It belongs to be continued.

However, another matter mentioned by Gao Jian needs everyone to discuss.

That is, in addition to the black sheep, there is a constant stream of cultivators coming, and this situation is unavoidable in the short term, and even in the endless years to come, there will be cultivators coming to pilgrimage to Qingyun Mountain and settle in Nan City.

This needs to be resolved.

"Hall Master, what do you think about the gathering of cultivators mentioned by Deputy Hall Master Gao Jian?" Sun Hui asked.

The high-level officials regained their minds, and those with corrupt family members and friends were also relieved.

This time, the Director-General did not kill them all, but gave everyone a chance to solve it themselves.

But this opportunity is only once, and if you don't handle it well, it will be bad, and even you will have difficulty gaining a foothold in Qingyun Mountain.

Therefore, many cultivators are thinking that after this meeting, they will immediately return to Nan City to see if their family members and friends are making trouble.

However, the conference has not yet ended, and there are many things that need to be discussed, and they need to regain their senses.

"Hall Master, fellow Daoists, this matter is unavoidable. As long as the Xuan Master is still in Qingyun Mountain, and Qingyun Mountain is still in Nan City, it is unavoidable.

"There will definitely be cultivators coming to seek Dao and pilgrimage, and there will definitely be newcomers from martial arts halls all over the world coming to the headquarters.

"We have taken over the banner of the previous martial arts halls, and we have gained the benefits, so we must bear the responsibility."

Guan Qiong, one of the Dinghai needles, said.

What Guan Qiong said is the truth.

The Martial Dao Alliance is the "new life" of the previous martial arts halls. If you inherit the benefits of the martial arts halls, you must bear the cost.

After all, the Martial Dao Alliance recognizes the martial arts halls all over the world, and recognizes them as subordinate branches.

The three hundred martial arts masters sent to preach are also going to the martial arts halls in major provinces and cities.

It directly has branches all over the world, which is a direct comparison to the heritage of the three religions.

"My suggestion is, first, we must continue to expand the Nan City Martial Dao Hall, because it is inevitable that cultivators will come to pilgrimage.

Second, as Deputy Curator Gao Jian said, there needs to be a diversion of manpower. Specific tasks should be assigned to the wilderness, small worlds, and various locations where the Martial Arts Alliance needs assistance. We can't rely solely on volunteers staying in Nanshi.

Let me clarify something here. Deputy Curator Gao Jian raised a point, and I hope everyone will go back and take a good look at the actions of your relatives and friends.

You are all cultivators with bright futures and extraordinary talents. Don't let some parasites ruin your prospects.

From now on, everyone is responsible for their own relatives and friends, and you should provide resources yourselves. Don't just ask Nanshi or the Martial Arts Alliance for them. Our resources are earned by our colleagues with their lives, they are stained with blood.

I hope everyone thinks about the sacrificed colleagues, thinks about the clans still suffering, and asks yourselves, do some people deserve it? Do they deserve to enjoy these blood-stained, sweat-soaked resources?

Third, the Director-General previously told me that our Martial Arts Alliance should also have its own 'Hundred Arts,' and I agree with that.

Having a father and mother is not as good as having it yourself. We can buy them, and we can also obtain them by force.

But I believe we should also have them ourselves.

This way, we can also divert some of the increasingly numerous cultivators in Nanshi.

There is no mistake in the world!

Who says martial arts cultivators can't learn the Hundred Arts? We are not brutes.

The Xuan Masters have long said that the combination of movement and stillness is needed, and we need to cultivate our hearts and minds. The Hundred Arts can be regarded as our meditation.

This is my suggestion.

… …

“Clatter clatter—”

Sun Hui gave applause.

With the suggestions and support regarding Guan Dao, coupled with what he just said, it seems that those parasites won't be a problem.

Of course, future regulations must also keep up.

Having rules is the best solution.

Next, with Guan Dao expressing his stance, and with the words of Curator Sun Hui and Guan Dao, everyone spoke enthusiastically.

A general framework was formulated, which is the management of Nanshi cultivators and the distribution of points.

From now on, no one can gain without working; everyone needs to strive for themselves.

If you can't compete, you will be eliminated.

“Haha, thank you for your support, and thank you, colleagues.” Seeing the outline plan emerge, Gao Jian breathed a sigh of relief.

He is the primary person in charge and the first implementer. With this outline, things will be easier.

Filling in the gaps will one day lead to the formation of standardized regulations and rules.

“To be honest, the newly established official government JC in Nanshi has repeatedly contacted me through the Confucian School, saying that the biggest instability and chaos in Nanshi come from rogue cultivators, and our Martial Arts Alliance cultivators are second.

There have been many instances of cultivators making mistakes or even committing crimes, violating the Xuan Master's instructions of 'one rule for cultivators, one rule for ordinary people,' 'cultivators should not implicate ordinary people innocently,' and 'no unreasonable targeting of ordinary people,' and other regulations.”

“I'm really afraid that the new government will be so angry that they will run to Qingyun Mountain to complain to the Xuan Master. After all, the Refiners Alliance has set a good precedent; they can complain about our four major forces.”

Gao Jian said with a hidden meaning.

He expressed his gratitude for everyone's support and for supporting the emergence of the rectification outline.

Those sitting there felt even more uncomfortable, even nervous.

What if they really complained, saying that their Martial Arts Alliance was a criminal gang in Nanshi?

That would be terrible.

Indeed, as Gao Jian said, many people remembered the Refiners Alliance's complaint.

So that's how it can be done.

“Next topic, I will talk about the Blood Moon Realm.”

Sun Hui began to report on the situation of the Blood Moon Realm.

“Overall, the Blood Moon Realm is more dangerous. Demonic creatures are often Transcendent existences, and there are also many Transcendent fierce beasts.

If it weren't for the Xuan Master's treasure, the Void Blade, which can be summoned, it would be difficult for our four major forces to gain a foothold in the Blood Moon Realm.

It just so happens that the Blood Moon Realm needs more manpower this time. I plan to recruit half of the people from the wilderness area, and the Nanshi Martial Arts Hall will make up for the reduced half from the wilderness area.

In addition, the three thousand cultivators from Qingyun Mountain also need to increase by a thousand people to go to the Blood Moon Realm. The more cruel environment of the Blood Moon will provide greater tempering.

What I and the other three families have discussed is to take An Ding Prefecture in three months and gain a complete foothold in An Ding Prefecture in half a year.

After gaining a foothold in An Ding Prefecture, we will inevitably face the two major forces of the Blood Moon Realm face to face.

These two major forces are the demonic creature force and the Transcendent forces of the Four Sects, Three Dynasties, and Two Pavilions.

… …

As Sun Hui described, everyone nodded in agreement.

The Four Sects, Three Dynasties, and Two Pavilions are the Transcendent forces of the Blood Moon Realm, and their specific attitudes are currently unknown.

We don't even know their specific strength.

We only have a few understandings through some secret rumors.

“Oh, right?”

After arranging the Blood Moon Realm plan, Sun Hui said, “Do you know that next year is the ninth year of the Strange Resurgence?”

As he spoke, he looked at Guan Dao, Guan Qiong, and Shenqiang Zhen Yingxiong.

The two were the chief curators of the former Xiadu headquarters, and they probably knew more than he did in his small local Nanshi.

Shenqiang Zhen Yingxiong said, “I know, it's just the confirmation of the time. It's not the seventh or eighth year that everyone previously thought, but the ninth year. Of course, the ninth year is secondary; the most important thing is the ten-year period.

The tenth year of the Strange Resurgence is a node. It is said that although the first ten years are a disaster, after the ten-year node, the Strange Resurgence will intensify, and the fusion of the myriad realms will also intensify, thus leading to greater crises.

I also know that the headquarters of the Town Evil Department is guarding those secret lands, which are the six standardized A-level Strange Secret Lands. I heard that there are strange occurrences there.

In short, the situation in the future will be even worse, whether it is the increase in Strange occurrences, the increase in Secret Realm fragments, Space fragments, or the evolution of fierce beasts, etc.”

Zhen Yingxiong expressed his understanding.

“Fortunately, the Xuan Master has appeared, and we have greater confidence. Even the more cruel environment has a good side; it can increase our sense of crisis, thereby improving our cultivation. True gold is tempered in a raging fire, and top experts can only be born in a cruel environment.”

Zhen Yingxiong's martial arts obsession seemed to be a bit expectant.

His words, this heroic ambition, ignited everyone.

Everyone who had been worried suddenly understood and felt that Senior Shenqiang was right.

“I am also very much looking forward to it.” Sun Hui smiled.

Feeling that the people's hearts were available, and that everyone was more anticipating than fearing, was perfect.

“Does anyone have anything else to add?”

Seeing that the major matters had been discussed almost completely, Sun Hui spoke.

“Curator, this subordinate has something to report.” Wu Gang stood up.

“Speak.”

“Yes.” Wu Gang said, “It's about the spirit seed issue. Previously, thanks to everyone's support, the first Devouring Star Vine spirit seed was successfully refined and nurtured by this subordinate.

Currently, after the Martial Alliance's unreserved resource allocation, my spiritual plant, the Devouring Star Vine, has reached the eighth level of entry.

I feel that it will take another half a month to reach the ninth level and enter the first-order Transcendent.

That is to say, in half a month, I will have a Transcendent spiritual plant.

I would like to ask the Director-General about my arrangements.

Finally, I have also compiled some of the experience in cultivating auxiliary spiritual plants for the Devouring Star Vine, and I will hand it over to Senior Shenqiang later and put it in the Sutra Depository.”

“Really?” Everyone was pleasantly surprised after hearing this.

The previous plan was to catalyze an entry-level Devouring Star Vine in one month.

But it was just a plan, and it had not been realized. No one dared to guarantee it.

But with Wu Gang's explanation, it seemed that the plan had succeeded, and a first-order Transcendent Devouring Star Vine was really going to be cultivated.

“Are there still any for sale in the Merit Hall?” Sun Hui thought of this first.

“Director-General, I asked Deputy Curator Xia Qing, and he said that they will be sold one month later, and ten Devouring Star Vine spirit seeds will be sold every three months in the future, and pre-orders will not be accepted.” Gao Jian said.

A first-order Transcendent Devouring Star Vine is about to succeed, so the next step is to seek more spirit seeds.

Therefore, Sun Hui did not answer Wu Gang immediately, but thought of this.

“Is that so.” Sun Hui frowned.

“Director-General, I think the selling price of the spirit seeds after one month…” Gao Jian prompted.

“I understand, it will definitely increase in price. In fact, this is even better.” Sun Hui said with a relieved expression:

“If the price remains the same, we will still need luck to buy them, but if the price is high, the advantage of our large forces having more resources will come into play.

In short, Gao Jian, you must keep a close eye on it. I think the other three families will do the same.”

“Yes, Director-General.” Gao Jian responded.

“As for your arrangement?”

Sun Hui looked at Wu Gang and said, “Everyone must know about Black Gold. I have previously discussed it with the Merit Hall and the three families.

In a week, we will integrate manpower to collect resources from the Secret Realm discovered by Xu Zhaoju. That is our most important resource point for a period of time in the future.

We need experts to guard it. You should go to this Secret Realm.

Although we have not yet worked out the process of using the Dantian Qi Sea to refine weapons, I hope everyone has not forgotten my instructions some time ago.”

The so-called previous instructions were criticisms of the lack of pioneering innovation among the major forces.

The major forces have formed inertia. They don't rely entirely on their own fighting like rogue cultivators, so they have more divergent thinking and the courage to innovate and try.

The people of the Martial Arts Alliance also admitted this.

Even Shenqiang Zhen Yingxiong felt ashamed.

Wang Daqiang is a rogue cultivator and a master of using guns. He created the Lightning Gun.

And although he also has gun intent, even much stronger than Wang Daqiang.

But he doesn't have Wang Daqiang's unique Lightning Gun intent, and he also needs to reflect on himself.

Seeing that everyone attached great importance to his previous instructions, Sun Hui did not continue to speak.

“You go to the Black Gold Secret Realm.”

“Yes.” Wu Gang said.

… …

PS: I have something to do today, so I'll update one more, a combined two-in-one chapter.
