Chapter 1763: Chapter 889: Taixu Sect affairs of great importance are typically decided by the Ancestors from behind the scenes. After the decision, the Sect Leader and the powerful Elders will methodically discuss details and carry out specific implementations. The Ancestors of Tai’a, Chongxu, and Taixu have already reached a secret agreement. Subsequently, the matter of "Three Sects Unification" began to truly advance. This matter is too significant, and within the three sects, including the Sect Leaders and Elders of each sect, many people are somewhat unwilling. But this is the wish of the Ancestors, and they cannot disobey. The Ancestors have high cultivation, stand high, and see far. Without standing in the position of the Ancestors, one cannot know the Ancestor’s concerns, nor understand the planning of the overall situation. The Sect Leaders and Elders of each sect understand this. Therefore, although many people have quite a few grievances about this, the "Three Sects Unification" is still secretly advancing little by little. Once a series of trivial matters were mostly discussed, the Sect Leaders of Tai’a, Chongxu, and Taixu gathered together to finally decide on the specific matters of the "Unification". These matters need not bother the Ancestors and will be bargained by these Sect Leaders. Once the regulations are finalized, they will be submitted for the Ancestor’s review, and once they nod in approval, the matter will be finalized. In a sealed great hall of the Taixu Gate. The Sect Leaders of Tai’a, Chongxu, and Taixu gathered together to discuss affairs. "In the unification of the three sects, nominally, the three gates are unified, but the positions of the individual Sect Leaders, as well as the positions of the Elders and Instructors, remain unchanged." "Disciples remain unchanged." "The privileges of each sect remain unchanged." "Each sect’s Ancestors, Sect Leaders, still have independent decision-making authority over their respective sect affairs," said the Taixu Sect Master. This is also a compromise. Otherwise, erasing the powers of the Tai’a and Chongxu sects would truly be a "merger." This would also go against the original intention of Taixu Gate’s "mutual assistance." "However," said the Taixu Sect Master, "if there are major matters, the three sects must gather to convene a meeting. Only decisions agreed upon by the majority may be implemented." "And our Taixu Gate has the right of veto." This is the right of Taixu Gate. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞 Taixu Gate is now powerful, and holds the highest position among the three sects, and asking only for a "veto right," without requiring absolute authority, is already a significant concession. The Tai’a Sect Leader and Chongxu Sect Leader both nodded in agreement. These matters are well understood by all. The Taixu Sect Master continued, "Next, here are some specific matters of mutual communication..." "Sect Tokens are interchangeable, and disciples of the three gates can visit each other’s sect gates without restriction, using their respective Sect Tokens." "The Tai’a Token, Chongxu Token, and Taixu Token are all treated equally and can be recognized as the Sect Token after the unification of the three sects." The Sect Token is of utmost importance and also symbolizes the disciples’ belonging to the Sect. But now, at the initial stage of unification, it’s not suitable to unify them to prevent disciples from Tai’a and Chongxu from feeling exclusion. Moreover, the construction of the Sect Token is complex and costly, requiring the Thunder Magnetism Large Formation as the foundation, altering the formation’s base, expanding the Formation Pivot, adding sequences and embedding the two main systems of Bounty Scroll and Merit Scroll, which cannot be easily unified in a short period. Especially the Merit System, which is directly related to the inheritance systems of each sect, cannot be rashly modified and can only be done gradually. The Taixu Sect Master said, "The Merit Scrolls of the Three Sects Tokens will be gradually interconnected in the future, sharing merits and rewards." "Part of the rewards from the Merit Scrolls of each sect will be shared first, and subsequently expanded as situations permit, ultimately merging into one sect." "But the core heritage of each sect can be retained..." "After the unification of the three sects, the teaching for disciples will also be mutually beneficial." "The Elders and Instructors of Tai’a, Chongxu, and Taixu Three Gates will each exchange and jointly teach disciples Daoist cultivation methods." "Hereafter, sword casting will be taught by Tai’a Sect, Sword Qi by Chongxu Sect, and Formation will be taught by our Taixu Gate." "This can gradually enhance the connection and feelings between the three gates..." "Furthermore..." ... The integration and reformation of the Three Sects Unification is very complex. The three Sect Leaders discussed from morning to evening, covering all the general matters, and the drafted regulations were all recorded into the Jade Slip. Afterward, they all sighed with relief and each drank a sip of tea. However, the atmosphere did not become much relaxed, but instead grew more serious. Because they all knew that what follows is the most important, most core, and also the sharpest issue. After a moment, the Tai’a Sect Leader first spoke: "After the unification of the three sects...what shall it be called?" The "name" of the Sect is of utmost importance. If the name is not proper, then the words will not be smooth. Furthermore, a good name concerns the fortune of the sect, even the rise and fall for hundreds or thousands of years thereafter. Moreover, now that it’s the unification of the three sects, this name concerns the dignity and honor of each sect. This is a major event, and all three were hesitant to speak lightly. The Chongxu Sect Leader pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Or... should we use that previous Ancient Sect name?" The Tai’a Sect Leader shook his head and said, "Would you really dare to use it?" The Taixu Sect Master also sighed, "That name is no longer allowed to be mentioned." "Yes, all records have also been destroyed." "Moreover, its fortune was too grand to bear. Our three gates were forced to split once already; to use that name again, it’s likely the unification won’t last long before we have to split again." "The Taoist Court will never agree..." "Without mentioning that name, merely by uniting our sects it’s already seen as the weak clustering together out of necessity. But if we use that name, it will clearly show ambition, and is sure to anger the Taoist Court." "Under such circumstances, being able to bypass the Four Great Sects and withstand pressure from all sides to successfully unite is already quite good. If we additionally arouse the Taoist Court’s suspicion, all the current plans might end prematurely."
