Chapter 534 Hundred Clans Conference a few days later.
Qingzhu Mountain, in the square at the mountain gate.
In the early morning, the Lin family grounds were bustling with activity. In addition to the normal movement of Lin family members traveling through the clan grounds, there were also many people busy in the square.
At the same time, a large number of foreign monks came out of the temporary cave and gathered together to chat and wait for the alliance meeting to be held.
In the square, some members of the Lin family were busy at this time. Some of them were placing futons and some were decorating the meeting venue.
It seemed that there were thousands of futons, all arranged neatly, with a certain distance between each futon.
In just a short while, the large square was filled with futons, and the end was endless as far as the eye could see.
On the highest platform of the square, there are three seats side by side in the middle.
These positions are the highest, most conspicuous, and have excellent sightlines. They are obviously the positions of the highest-ranking person in the Lin family.
After a while, the venue was almost decorated.
At this time, the busy people gathered together. Lin Xingzhi, the leader, looked at the scene on the field and nodded with satisfaction.
Immediately afterwards, he gave instructions to the more than ten tribesmen beside him.
Soon, these tribesmen dispersed. They followed Lin Xingzhi's instructions to summon the monks who participated in the alliance.
In addition, there are also some tribesmen who call for tribesmen to come here, not only to observe the conference, but also to maintain order on the scene.
Following Lin Xingzhi's arrangements, some monks soon entered the scene.
There were a large number of people in this group. After greeting Lin Xingzhi, they sat in the designated seats under the arrangement of the Lin family members.
And these people's cultivations are all in the Qi refining stage, and they all come from Qi refining families in a certain mountain range.
Under the arrangement of the Lin family, they used a mountain range as the basic unit. The monks could gather together and become familiar with each other.
After these people sat down, some acquaintances began to communicate privately, waiting for the alliance to begin.
Immediately afterwards, monks came in one after another and sat in different positions.
After a while, the front of the entire square, that is, the direction close to the mountain gate, was already filled with monks.
Looking around, there was a monk sitting on all the thousands of futons. They were all discussing something, and some of their words were full of compliments to the Lin family.
At the back of the square, the more than 200 futons in the front row were all empty at this time.
These locations are relatively close to the high platform, and their location is much better than those of the Qi Refining monks.
Obviously, these positions are the positions of foundation-building monks.
After all, the gap between foundation-building monks and qi-refining monks, including qi-refining families and foundation-building families, is still quite large.
As the saying goes, if there are differences in cultivation among monks, there will naturally be distinctions between superiority and inferiority, as well as good and bad positions.
The Lin family naturally pays more attention to those family-building families and foundation-building monks.
Therefore, these front row positions are all prepared for those foundation-building monks.
As time slowly passed, nearly two hundred foundation-building monks gradually gathered.
Among these people, some came alone, and some came in groups.
Under the leadership of the Lin family members, they were also arranged to sit down at the designated positions.
After all the monks who participated in the alliance arrived, the entire square was filled with people.
By this time, the scene had become very lively, and the monks were talking among themselves. The atmosphere had already reached a climax before the meeting began.
Soon, Lin Shihua flew out from the clan and slowly landed on the high platform.
As soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of all the monks, and the noisy atmosphere calmed down.
Immediately afterwards, the monks here stood up one after another and raised their hands towards the high platform.
At the same time, some foundation-building monks also smiled and greeted Lin Shihua.
Seeing this, Lin Shihua chuckled, and with a red face, he returned a salute to the more than a thousand monks below.
His attitude was quite calm and his tone was extremely polite, with no airs at all.
Among the monks below, the foundation-building monks were okay, at least relatively calm.
But those Qi Refining monks were all excited, and their words were full of compliments, as if they wanted to show their faces and attract Lin Shihua's attention.
After all, the current overall strength of the Lin family is too strong, and the gap between it and those Qi refining families is really huge.
As the head of the Lin family, Lin Shihua, although his cultivation is only at the seventh level of foundation building, his status is high enough.
What's more, the Lin family is the sect leader of these families and plays a key role in the subsequent development of their families.
As for the powerful people in the Golden Core stage of the Lin family, their status is even more noble, so they are afraid that it will be difficult to see them.
In this situation, Lin Shihua, the head of the Lin family, is the highest-status person in the Lin family that they can contact.
As a result, many people wanted to show their faces and attract Lin Shihua's attention, so as to have closer contact with the Lin family.
Even if they can get the support of the Lin family, their family will also have some advantages in subsequent development.
There are many monks with this purpose, most of them are from the Qi Refining family, and there are also some Foundation-building families who also have this mentality.
Lin Shihua also expected what these people thought.
Speaking of which, he has been the head of the Lin family for nearly a hundred years. After so many years of training, he is also a thoughtful person. He can understand the thoughts of those monks with just a little thought.
Therefore, Lin Shihua is quite calm and will not express his position easily when he does not neglect others.
In his eyes, the Lin family is now powerful anyway. The Lin family is the sect leader and controls the lives of these people at all times.
With such conditions, the Lin family does not have to compromise with these small forces.
Understanding this, Lin Shihua also casually greeted some monks in the front row, and then chatted for a few words.
When the sun crossed the mountain peaks and shone on the square, Lin Shihua also felt that the time was almost up.
So, he stood up and looked at the many monks below, and then said slowly: "The auspicious time has come, and the alliance has begun!"
"Comrades, on behalf of the Lin family, Lin Shihua, the head of the Xialin family, welcomes you to the alliance."
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately began to compliment him.
"Haha... Patriarch Lin is so polite. It is an honor for us and other monks from the major families to be able to participate in the Alliance Conference!"
"yes……"
"We can rely on the Lin family. Under the protection of the Lin family in the future, our major families will definitely prosper and their strength will increase greatly..."
"..."
Hearing what the monks below said to each other, even though Lin Shihua had always been very calm, it was quite helpful.
For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
And speaking of it, it would be unrealistic for him not to be excited about such a scene.
After all, he had never dared to imagine such a lively scene before, but now it has actually come a result, facing these large and small forces that were attached to the Lin family, Lin Shihua's heart was in turmoil.
The reason for this is because he is the head of the family and will manage the family forces in front of him in the future.
It is foreseeable that he will be even busier in the future.
After all, the thousands of monks here all come from the twelve mountain ranges controlled by the Lin family.
According to careful statistics by the Lin family members, there are more than 700 families in the territory belonging to the Lin family who have sent people to participate in the alliance.
Among them, there are 77 foundation-building families, and the rest are all Qi-refining families.
Among these foundation-building families, about [-]% of the forces were originally attached to the Qingyun Sect, and they all lived in the five mountain ranges that were later acquired.
The rest of the foundation-building families were previously from the territories under the Zhenyang Sect.
The reason why the families that originally belonged to the Huangyang Kingdom only accounted for [-]% of the total number was because most of the families in that territory had all moved to their clan areas before the handover deadline.
For these migrating families, the Lin family did not stop them from leaving.
Nowadays, there are only a few families left in the area, and today they all sent people to participate in the alliance.
In fact, as the migrating families left, those mountains are now empty.
At the very least, the cumulative area of the five mountain ranges acquired by the Lin family was very large, no smaller than the cumulative area of the seven mountain ranges acquired from the Zhenyang Sect, or even larger.
The area of these twelve mountain ranges varies, but even the smallest Hengyang Mountains is larger than the Luoyun Mountains where the Lin family is located.
Even the Songyuan Mountains, Lanling Mountains, which originally belonged to the Qingyun Sect, and the Qianchuan Mountains, which were controlled by the Zhenyang Sect, are relatively close to the hinterland of the country, so that the area of one mountain range can be larger than that of the Luoyun Mountains.
As the handover period approaches, nearly half of the family leaves.
In the originally crowded mountains, there are also many treasures left vacant.
Now, the families living in these territories controlled by the Lin family are relatively sparsely distributed.
For this matter, the Lin family has also made some long-term plans.
At today's alliance meeting, the Lin family also wants to formulate some rules, and also announce the family's layout to maximize benefits.
Thinking of this, Lin Shihua did not intend to waste time.
So he waved his hand to interrupt the noisy scene.
As the scene calmed down, Lin Shihua said loudly: "Lin is very pleased that all of you comrades can come to attend the alliance conference!"
"Next, Lin will read out the rules set by the Lin family. I hope the clan members behind you fellow Taoists will abide by the rules!"
"Lin's ugly story is ahead. If any family knowingly commits a crime, our Lin family will definitely hold them accountable!"
Speaking of this, Lin Shihua's tone became cold and stern, and his expression became more serious. Relying on his seventh-level cultivation aura, the scene was immediately shocked.
Seeing the solemn expressions of the monks below, Lin Shihua changed the subject.
"Haha... Fellow Taoists, don't be too nervous!"
"Really speaking, our Lin family has not been inherited for a long time, and the current territory is also very empty. There are many various spiritual properties."
"Now that the Wei State has just returned to peace, it can be said that everything is waiting to be done."
"In the future, as long as the major families abide by the rules, the Lin family will naturally not be stingy. Instead, they will devote some resources and special policies to support some forces."
"You can rest assured about this!"
After hearing these soft and hard words, the monks below reacted one after another, and the atmosphere relaxed a lot.
Some monks even stood up quickly. While complimenting the Lin family, they also did not forget to show their loyalty.
With someone taking the lead, more monks immediately spoke, and the scene became heated for a time.
Seeing this, Lin Shihua nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he waved his hand downwards to suppress the noisy atmosphere.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Shihua began to read out various rules set by the Lin family.
These simple rules are actually similar to the rules formulated by Zhenyang Sect, and they are also a basic order in the world of immortality.
It can even be said that even if the Lin family does not go through this formality, the monks can continue in the normal order and will not easily cause chaos due to a little disagreement or some grudges.
After all, the world of immortality has always been dominated by strength.
If you have absolute strength, even if you destroy your enemy, the sect leader will not hold you accountable too much.
Anyway, one thing is that as long as the interests of the sect master's power are not harmed, some things can just turn a blind eye.
Just like the civil strife that occurred in the Luoyun Mountains, as long as the Zhenyang Sect is willing, it will definitely be able to stop it in time.
It's just that the war didn't last long at that time, and the Luoyun Mountain Range was remote and relatively barren, making it almost a breeding ground.
As a result, Zhenyang Sect didn't bother to care about this inconspicuous little place.
It is precisely because of these reasons that the Lin family destroyed the Jin family in a short period of time, and the Zhenyang Sect did not hold them accountable.
Now, since the Lin family controls twelve mountain ranges and has solved the territorial constraints, it is natural for them to run it well.
To this end, the Lin family also supplemented the original rules, plugged some common loopholes, and tried their best to firmly control all the hundreds of families under their command.
Sure enough, after Lin Shihua announced it, it quickly aroused heated discussions among many monks.
Generally speaking, the rules set by the Lin family are not much different from those of Zhenyang Sect and Qingyun Sect.
It's just that the Lin family's rules are more perfect, and the battles between various forces are more strictly controlled.
At the same time, the Lin family's control over major spiritual places and major cities has become much stricter.
In fact, the main reason why the Lin family does this is to prevent those forces from losing too much strength due to differences or even some interests.
After all, the twelve mountain ranges are relatively empty now. If there is any crisis in the future, the strength of the monks recruited by the Lin family will definitely be relatively low.
Such a thing is not a good thing for the Lin family.
In this way, the Lin family ordered those families who had gaps to put aside their prejudices, exercise restraint, and rest for a while.
The family monks below thought about it in their minds and had different opinions on this matter.
In their eyes, although they will be subject to certain restrictions in the future, if they think about it carefully, the Lin family also wants a long-term peaceful territory.
And these are what most monks want to see.
After all, no one wants to be in constant fear every day, let alone have wars break out between families, thus affecting the normal development of the family.
As a result, although the conflicts between some families are fierce, they are almost reaching the point of being irreconcilable.
However, due to the current strong power of the Lin family, and the fact that the Lin family is indeed willing to use part of their profits to make up for it, those monks who had different ideas had no choice but to let it go.
