Chapter 776 (1/2)

(after 772, there will be no free immortals, so we need to guard against thousand day thieves)

yelan takes out the imperial edict issued by Emperor Kunyuan to Xuanmen Taoist temple. He was responsible for disseminating decrees in Tongzhou and Jinzhou, two copies in total.

One of them was given to Wu De Guan, also known as Wu Xing Zong. He had already given it to Wen chuxiao, the patriarch. The other is for Biyun temple, which is the jade palace.

Today, wuxingzong occupies Tongzhou, Cuiyu palace occupies Jinzhou, and jiwuzong occupies Yizhou, which has become the three great Xuanmen forces in the south.

It was not just like the civilian soldiers who were enlisted into the army to fight the enemy under the command of the general.

Xianxuandu have their own temperaments, so it is impossible for them to obey the orders of officials.

According to the edict of emperor Kunyuan, each clan was invited to send a group of monks who did not receive the salary of the imperial court, but whose realm was purple house or below.

These monks were sent to Houtu city to participate in a grand battle meeting, which was called ”xiaoyaohui”.

It's just an invitation. There's no coercion. You can go if you like. You don't have to go if you don't.

The winner of the fighting method will be rewarded by the imperial court. The first reward is a royal gift of the golden elixir medicine!

Moreover, these friars will form a new force, which is not controlled by any clan, called ”xiaoyaoxian alliance”.

According to the combat performance ranking of ”Xiaoyao Association”, the leader of Xiaoyao alliance is the best, followed by the deputy leader, and then the altar master, etc.

What is worth pondering here is that the golden elixir is excluded from the Xiaoyao immortal alliance.

It is probably because the court thinks that on the one hand, Jindan friars do not lack of resources, and it is difficult to control them with interests.

On the other hand, the Jindan friars will have strong prestige in the alliance, which will affect the whole immortal alliance. It will be difficult for the court to control it from behind.

The purple mansion friar is eager to be promoted to the golden elixir, so I can easily hold your nose with the golden elixir as a temptation.

In the war, the imperial court did not lack of skilled scholars, and these people were not easy to die. What they lack is a large number of Xudan and Zifu who can be used as cannon fodder.

In the future, the members of the Xiaoyao immortal alliance will not be restricted by the imperial court, nor will they obey anyone's orders. They will still be a kind of loose cultivation, but they will still get great benefits from the court.

Because the imperial court guaranteed by the national strength, the Xiaoyao xianmeng had the right to ”tax” the world clan! This so-called tax revenue is not gold, silver, copper and iron, but the resources needed by all monks to ascend the realm.

As long as in the war, the Xiaoyao xianmeng can collect taxes from any sect in the world by issuing the order of xianmeng. As for the object, type and amount of tax collection, the Xiaoyao League shall decide on its own. This tax is called ”free tax”.

The imperial court will not touch half of the Xiaoyao tax. The tax is collected by xianmeng and distributed by itself. All the tax is used for the cultivation and improvement of xianmeng members. So the benefits of the alliance members are huge.

The only price they had to pay was that when the monarch issued an edict to enlist the xianmeng to fight, Xiaoyao xianmeng had to fight as an ally of Wang Shi.

But even if it is to fight, the immortal alliance is only under the command of the leader and other high-level leaders. Xianmeng itself did not obey the orders of the imperial court. All the members of the alliance were only subject to the rules of the league and did not obey the military orders of the court.

The imperial court only gives different benefits according to the size of the battle results, and has no direct command.

If the xianmeng failed in the battle and the imperial court was not satisfied, it would not support the tax collection of the xianmeng in the future, and the xianmeng would inevitably disintegrate.

On the other hand, if the xianmeng war is successful, the court will give more rewards.

In non wartime, all the members of the league are in a state of carefree. Even the allies have no right to recruit them. However, the imperial court still allocated some resources to them. Offering sacrifices is not as good as Confucianism and Xuan, but it is also better than Xianxuan who does not participate in the immortal alliance.

This is obviously good for the free cultivation in the world. In the past, it was very difficult to obtain resources for scattered repair. Even if you are strong, you can't fight against sectarian gang fights.

Now, as long as you participate in the xianmeng, sanxiu is still free cultivation, but you can get the ”free tax” and the special offer of the imperial court. This tax will only be levied on the clan, but they can get a share as a loose repair.

The only price is that you have to work in wartime. However, compared with the long life of friars, there were not too many in wartime.

It is not necessarily useful for the leisure of the clan. They had enough resources in the clan, and they didn't have to work for the imperial court. They were very happy.

Although they can get more resources after joining the Xiaoyao immortal League, it is not comfortable to ask them to fight under the control of others.
