Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 488: Secret Hall

The organization Dark Alliance itself excels in training assassins and spies, and it has its unique cultivation system. Meng Zhang never had direct contact with Dark Alliance, but they had many dealings with the black market under Dark Alliance's control.

The black market's exceptional intelligence capabilities left a deep impression on Meng Zhang. The market's expertise in gathering and analyzing information comes from Dark Alliance.

After the conflict between Meng Zhang and the black market in Endless Sea of Sand, although the black market tried to mend their relationship, Taiyi Sect could never go back to the way things were, and Meng Zhang could no longer trust the black market's intelligence system.

Upon Meng Zhang's return to the core, the black market repeatedly tried to show goodwill. They treated Gold Core Daoist Master with sincerity and respected both Meng Zhang's strength and Taiyi Sect's rising prominence.

Although Meng Zhang appeared magnanimous and forgiving on the surface, deep down, he remained cautious of the black market.

Jue Ying naturally couldn't disclose Dark Alliance's internal secrets, nor could she simply transplant Dark Alliance's system to Taiyi Sect. However, with her extensive experience and insight, even a slight guidance could benefit An Moran greatly, and Taiyi Sect could avoid many detours. In fact, Jue Ying lived up to Meng Zhang's trust and wholeheartedly assisted in establishing the Secret Hall for Taiyi Sect. Apart from some secret techniques and confidential matters, she shared everything with An Moran without holding back.

With Jue Ying's assistance, Meng Zhang ensured that Taiyi Sect would provide ample resources. The formation of the Secret Hall went smoothly, and An Moran quickly adapted to his new role.

However, structures like the Secret Hall go through a complex process from establishment to development and effectiveness, requiring significant time and accumulation to become truly proficient.

Though Meng Zhang planned to gradually shift Taiyi Sect's focus to Demon Wind Gobi, especially the Grand Lion Ridge area, Endless Sea of Sand held numerous interests and housed the primary headquarters of the Desert Sea Alliance.

Given the current situation, apart from Meng Zhang personally overseeing Grand Lion Ridge, Taiyi Sect's main strength still concentrated in Endless Sea of Sand.

The internal organizational structure of Taiyi Sect continued to improve as various Halls expanded and new ones were established. As the number of Foundation Building cultivators in the sect grew, most Hall Masters were from this stage. Elderly cultivators ranging from the mid to late stages of Foundation Building also gained prominence.

Before Niu Dawei left Demon Wind Gobi, Meng Zhang provided him with many pointers. He followed Meng Zhang's plan and established a rough framework. Through negotiations and discussions with various cultivation forces, Taiyi Sect played a leading role in establishing the internal systems of the Desert Sea Alliance.

The purpose of the Desert Sea Alliance was simple: all member forces would be under Taiyi Sect's leadership, working together to face challenges and grow stronger.

If faced with external threats, all members of the Desert Sea Alliance would unite against them. When dealing with internal enemies, there would be no mercy.

At least on the surface, all members of the alliance were considered equal in status. Niu Dawei established an institution called the "Council of Matters" where numerous participants engaged in discussions. Major matters within the Desert Sea Alliance could be brought to the council for deliberation and consultation.

Each force within the alliance had seats in the council and could send cultivators to participate as council members. The number of seats was calculated based on a clear formula, generally depending on the strength of the respective forces.

Although the Council of Matters sounded grand, it mainly served as an organization to appease various cultivation forces and didn't hold much real power. The true core governing body of the Desert Sea Alliance was the Senate.

The Senate held significant authority and was the true core of the Desert Sea Alliance. Currently, only Foundation Building cultivators with exceptional skills and the ability to sway others could enter the Senate. Taiyi Sect had more Foundation Building cultivators than all the other forces combined, and the majority of Senators were from Taiyi Sect.

A few other sects, such as Qiaoshou Sect and Land Walk Sect, also had a few Senators. Among them, Meng Zhang attached great importance to Qiaoshou Sect.

Jin Li, a Daoist Master of Qiaoshou Sect, had a deep connection with Taiyi Sect and even accepted Jin Qiao'er as her personal disciple. With full support from Jin Li, Qiaoshou Sect could stand on equal footing with Taiyi Sect.

Fortunately, Jin Li showed no interest in the specific affairs of Qiaoshou Sect and couldn't directly interfere in Endless Sea of Sand. Moreover, Qiaoshou Sect was well aware of its position and never took advantage of its relationship with Jin Li.

Jin Qiao'er was a reserved individual, focusing primarily on her own cultivation and seldom involving herself in the specific matters of Qiaoshou Sect. Of course, this was also with the consent of Jin Li.

Qiaoshou Sect had always been a traditional ally of Taiyi Sect and a loyal supporter and follower when forming the Desert Sea Alliance. Meng Zhang valued Qiaoshou Sect for the sake of Jin Li's face and also considered their valuable contributions.

Taiyi Sect even granted Qiaoshou Sect more benefits and made efforts to support them. While other members of the alliance received Lesser Foundation Building Pills from Taiyi Sect, Qiaoshou Sect received a small number of Foundation Building Pills.

Currently, Qiaoshou Sect boasted a considerable number of outstanding cultivators, with six Foundation Building cultivators among them. Their territory expanded significantly, making their strength unprecedented.

Under the guidance of the Senate, all forces within the Desert Sea Alliance had their obligations. To some extent, the entire alliance acted as a tool to support Taiyi Sect's rule.

Of course, with the powerful protection of Taiyi Sect as a Gold Core sect, these forces had sufficient security. In the ruthless world of cultivation, being part of the alliance allowed them to join forces and depend on Taiyi Sect.

Compared to the Jiuqu League, the newly established Desert Sea Alliance was full of vitality and on the rise. In contrast, the seemingly much stronger Jiuqu League had lost some of its vigor due to internal struggles and wasted resources.
