There weren't many people attending the meeting. Counting the number of people, there were only about three hundred of them.
However, this was already good enough. Three hundred Pond-level masters. Two years ago, no one would have believed that China could have so many masters.
Two years ago, there were only about ten Pond-level masters.
As the saying goes, 'the times make the heroes'.
These three hundred Pond-level masters were all masters of their own sects, heroes of their own sects, and overlords of their lands.
They represented the thousands of Pond-level masters in the future.
Xie Dong thought to himself. Only by starting with them could the 'Human Defense' be truly implemented.
At this moment, someone shouted.
"Team Leader Xie, what are the corresponding defensive cultivation methods? When are you going to give them to us? Are we going to teach them according to their aptitude? "Someone asked impatiently.
This was the complete opposite of the cold and indifferent atmosphere before the start of the Grand Assembly.
Xie Dong had been in the Public Relations Group for many years and had seen many people, so he was not surprised.
The world was bustling for benefits, and the world was bustling for benefits.
The people in the meeting previously thought that the Truth Department wanted them to contribute manpower, money, and medicine to fight against the Descended Ones from the Upper Realm, so of course, they had no motivation.
Now, they understood that the Truth Department was here to give them abilities and Merit.
They also wanted to teach them how to better obtain Heavenly Merit and how to break through the bottleneck of cultivation.
Of course, these people were not idiots. They knew that the Truth Department was doing this to find people to solve a similar 'Parasite Disaster' in the future, not for charity.
However, to them, there was no conflict of interest, so they were naturally happy to accept it.
This was the reality.
If you really wanted to organize people to do something, if you did not sort out the interests of all parties, the only outcome that awaited you would be failure.
Spirit could only be used as a catalyst, and the real source of motivation would always be benefits.
Xie Dong smiled as he thought of this and gestured for the crowd to quiet down.
Soon, the meeting hall returned to silence.
It was obvious that in a short period of time, he had successfully built up his reputation with the help of that god.
"We have compiled a list of over a thousand defensive techniques, and after the meeting, we will conduct an aptitude assessment for all of you. After which, we will divide them into categories and distribute them to you according to how compatible you are with each other. There's no need for you to be in a hurry …"
Everyone hesitated when they heard this.
Qualification appraisal? Would he expose his trump card?
However, the leaders of some small sects did not care. After all, they were lucky enough to break through to Pond-level.
If he could borrow the abilities of the Truth Department and earn Heavenly Merit in the future, he might be able to improve even further.
Xie Dong took note of the changes in everyone's expressions and was not surprised.
As long as the leader reaped the benefits, the others would definitely scramble like a flock of ducks.
After all, on the surface, it was a win-win situation, which was in line with the interests of these people. As long as this was guaranteed, there was no need to worry about any major problems.
"Right now, there's something I need to do, and this is a major event that can directly increase the sense of security of the Heavenly Axiom on Earth. It's the easiest way to obtain Heavenly Merit."
"Hey, Mr. Rich Boss, wake up. Don't fall asleep. Why didn't they tell us about this in advance … "Sir System was very dissatisfied.
Fang Ning quickly crawled out of the System Space …
That's right, just now he thought that Xie Dong was going to start a long speech about the technique, so he sneaked back to the lounge in the System Space to catch up on sleep.
After all, he knew that Sir System had a monitoring thread to control the entire body, so it would not let Vigilante A fall asleep and fall to the ground.
"Uh …" At this time, Fang Ning was very guilty. After thinking for a while, he quickly answered.
"Probably they don't want the news to leak out. After all, we're not part of their system, we're just a Triple Grade A cooperative unit."
"Forget it, listen carefully. This Xie Dong still has some solid information." Sir System actually let Fang Ning off easily.
This made Fang Ning feel very guilty, so he quickly said, "Don't worry, we'll definitely be able to get a lot out of what Xie Dong said. After all, we're the bosses, the ones with the highest damage, the strongest power, the deepest wisdom, and … "
"And you're the laziest." Sir System followed up with a stab.
Fang Ning turned a deaf ear.
"Leader Xie, what's the big event? Please don't keep us in suspense." Someone jeered from behind.
"Hehe, don't worry, I'll tell you right away." Xie Dong smiled.
Starting with "Human Defense", followed by "Earth Defense", and finally ending with "Heaven Defense", this was a strategy that had been decided long ago.
"These days, everyone should be familiar with the 'mooncake' that appeared in the sky, am I right?" Xie Dong suddenly changed the topic and said.
"Uh … What does Leader mean?" Someone asked doubtfully.
The moon turned into a mooncake and covered the geosynchronous orbit.
Putting aside the fact that it violated the laws of physics, this phenomenon alone was enough to shock the world and cause a huge uproar. All the news media took advantage of this hot topic to earn a wave of eyeballs.
However, humans were extremely adaptable. After a few months, people slowly got used to this phenomenon, and various experts also began to use the existing laws of physics to explain it.
Why could the mooncake exist stably in the sky above Earth and not cause any natural disasters or anomalies?
Ordinary people could only play around with words, but a small number of powerhouses in the cultivation world had already boarded the mooncake and began to gain tangible benefits from it.
There was no air above the mooncake, so ordinary people and weak cultivators could not survive.
However, the vitality was extremely thick, far surpassing that of Earth. Powerhouses could enjoy the hardship.
This was naturally because the bodies of real powerhouses had already evolved to another level. As long as there was a supply of vitality, it could be converted into the energy needed for the body to move.
To achieve this, even Pond-level was not enough. Only those who were above Lake-level were barely qualified to walk on the mooncake.
Xie Dong said lightly, "The mooncake is actually a tool used by the Earth's Heavenly Axiom to increase the sense of security …"
"Hiss, I see." Many people were shocked when they heard this, then they began to ponder.
After connecting the dots, the Truth Department's goal was obvious.
"That's right, just as everyone thought, we hope that everyone will be of one mind and work together to develop this mooncake. We'll build a large formation on it and turn it into an unbreakable front line." Xie Dong finally revealed his goal.
"If that's the case, it'll be a huge amount of Heavenly Merit."
"Uh, Mr. Rich Boss, this has nothing to do with us." Sir System said angrily.
"Why? Why aren't you interested? "Fang Ning was curious.
"Didn't he say it clearly? That'll be a huge amount of investment … "Sir System was very depressed.
"Uh, you're really much smarter. No, I can only say that you're really sensitive when it comes to things related to money. "Fang Ning was impressed.
When the crowd heard this, some frowned, some were excited, and some were doubtful.
"Can we really get Heavenly Merit?" Someone was still doubtful.
Xie Dong extended his hand again and said respectfully to Fang Ning, "Venerable One, I think you have the right to speak on this issue."
"We'll definitely get Heavenly Merit, but Leader Xie still said two words wrongly." Fang Ning said lightly.
Everyone was shocked, and Xie Dong looked terrified. He was afraid that Vigilante A had tricked him, so everyone looked at him nervously.
"If we really manage to accomplish this, the Heavenly Merit that we'll obtain won't just be 'massive', it'll be 'astronomical'." Fang Ning had everyone's attention focused on him, and only then did he make a shocking statement.
He now understood that the "1" point of Heavenly Merit in the System Notification was a lot for others. It was enough for them to break through a bottleneck in their cultivation.
As for the "Heavenly Fortune" skill that was once activated with 100 Heavenly Merit, it was a miracle in the eyes of others …
"Hiss …" Xie Dong heaved a sigh of relief. Everyone else was shocked.
It would actually be an astronomical amount of Heavenly Merit? Even if it was just a little, it would be easy for them to reach Lake-level.
Many people thought of this, and their eyes burned with passion.
Even some cultivators who had decided to lead the way for the Descended Ones from the Upper Realm began to hesitate.
After all, the promise of the Descended Ones from the Upper Realm might not be reliable. They might even be working with the devil.
