Chapter 574: Chapter 352: Unifying Blue Mountain, Version Update_3

The mountain gate of the Brahma Heaven Buddhist Sect was allocated to the Body Refining Nine Extremes Lineage.

At this point, the Immortal Thunder Lineage and Qingxu Lineage were left without a mountain gate, as, besides the five major sects, Blue Mountain did not have a sixth tier-five Spirit Vein.

Time passed, and unconsciously, two years flew by, the once-boiling Blue Mountain slowly became peaceful, allowing Su Yu to take the time to return to the Thousand Star Hall.

The guild headquarters gathered all the top leaders.

Gu Zhiqiu sat in a lower seat, earnestly reporting the current situation of the guild to him.

"The guild’s current territory includes the entire East Sea and half of the South Sea."

"Starting from Blue Sea City at the Yuanjiang River estuary, Blue Mountain extends upstream to Five Dragon City, then turns south directly to Demon Suppression Pass, and further south to Longtu Main City, covering approximately one-quarter of the main island of Blue Mountain in the southeast as our domain."

"Oh, and don’t forget the Endless Forest Sea branch."

"Currently, the total number of guild members has exceeded a hundred million, holding two main cities and two secondary cities, with an annual income of over twenty billion gold."

"Here is the guild’s specific data and detailed income and expenditure report, please take a look, Leader."

Su Yu’s mind stirred as he opened the panel to carefully review it.

"Since you, Leader, once mentioned reforming the guild, the specific member structure of the guild has not been finalized, and your decision is awaited."

"Hmm."

Su Yu watched for a moment, then closed the panel, nodded, and said:

"Before we discuss the new guild structure, I want to announce something first; the guild’s strength is now sufficient, and I intend to transform the guild into a nation, establishing the Thousand Star Nation!"

"All structures will follow the national system, such as the official grading system."

"Based on the common nine-grade system, the first grade is the highest, the ninth grade the lowest, and I will be the sole super grade."

"Grades seven, eight, and nine are for junior officials, four, five, and six for intermediate officials, one, two, and three for senior officials, with different salary and retirement benefits for each level, to be discussed in detail later."

"As for the guild’s new structure, I’m thinking of establishing a professional national legion, divided into three tiers. The highest tier is named Legion Level, limited to three, with approximately ten million people each."

"The second tier is the Elite Division Level, also known as Division Corps Level, consisting of 20-50 units, each with around one million people."

"The third tier comprises the Regular Corps, with numbers around one hundred thousand, with the specific number determined by the guild’s population."

"Below the corps level are the brigade level with 10,000 people, large units with 1,000 people, mid units with 100 people, and small units with 10 people."

"Additionally, aside from the fixed leaders of the main legions, the deputy commanders, division and deputy division commanders, corps commanders and deputies, and battalion and deputy battalion commanders in all medium and high positions will be appointed from above, with each term lasting twenty years. Re-election is possible but must involve rotation to another legion, and no position can be held by the same person for an extended period."

"The same applies to other administrative positions in the guild."

"Furthermore, to enhance the fluidity of internal promotion channels, there will be age requirements for different positions, and a retirement system will be introduced."

"Intermediate officials require Foundation Establishment Cultivation and must be over the age of forty, retiring when over two hundred, with the retirement age increased to a thousand if a Golden Core is achieved."

"High officials, like corps commanders, require Foundation Establishment Cultivation, and Xuanzhen Immortal Sect disciples, over sixty, retire when over three hundred, with retirement age increased to twelve hundred if a Golden Core is achieved."

"Note that these cultivation levels are present requirements; in the future, all intermediate officials must have cultivation above the Golden Core."

"Additionally, I do not advocate long-term tenure for officials; if unable to rise in a particular career, the maximum term shall not exceed two terms, then transition to a secondary administrative position for one term before retirement."

"Retirement benefits will be determined based on rank, providing for one descendant to enter the national cadre reserve. If the provisioned descendant is promoted within the specified time, promotion may occur up to one major level below the parent’s pre-retirement level."

"The merit system will be reset for the Thousand Star Nation, with details to be discussed by you all later."

"These are the primary changes; the specifics require further discussion among you. I expect a complete set of rules presented to me within a month."

Handing over specific affairs to his subordinates, Su Yu clearly outlined a few key points that would not change, with the development of subsidiary branches left to their decision, with him making the final determination.

Then he delved into the chaotic realm to begin tallying this time’s harvest.

Having exterminated two top-tier sects and dozens of various-sized sects, Su Yu, as the absolute core, had absolute priority in the distribution of the spoils of war.

Though he sent the war spoils back to the sect, the sect leader returned the vast majority back to him, especially offering a list from the sects’ treasuries for him to select first.

Su Yu did not stand on ceremony, selecting most of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from the sects, and chose two of the four low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasures.

The four low-grade Acquired Spiritual Treasures were: Sea of Blood Banner, Blood God Saber, Yin-Yang Celestial Cauldron, and Yin-Yang Divine Mirror.

The Sea of Blood Banner was outrightly excluded as he had no use for it.

The Blood God Saber was also unnecessary, as he had previously acquired two low-grade Spiritual Treasure Divine Blades by defeating Yu Jun.

The Yin-Yang Celestial Cauldron was a treasure for alchemy, perfect for the Vast Sea’s use.

The Yin-Yang Divine Mirror was identical to a Tier Ten Yin-Yang Divine Mirror he had once obtained and was a low-grade Spiritual Treasure, which Su Yu took for Void Nether’s use.

Aside from these, there were twelve Tier Ten Treasure spoils of war, from which he only took half.

The largest quantity was various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, among which were several pieces of Nine Heavens Earth, a bag of Merit Pearls, and countless top-tier artifact refining materials.

He avoided a Celestial Immortal-level Arhat’s Golden Body with considerable caution.

There were also several extremely rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasure seeds and residual roots, though lacking the capability to re-cultivate them.

What caught Su Yu’s attention most was a shriveled white lotus seed, which he initially didn’t recognize until the Vast Sea identified it, discovering that the seed wasn’t completely dead and still contained a trace of residual life force and innate Dao rhythm.
