As long as a full-scale war does not break out, Taiyi Sect and Feihong Sect can still persist.
Without Jin Li Zhenren and Feishi Zhenren, Taiyi Sect and Feihong Sect are at an absolute disadvantage in terms of Jin Dan combat power. However, in the battle between low-level disciples, they can be both offensive and defensive, and fight against the enemy. The fight was lively.
This battle that is destined to last for a long time is a tempering of blood and fire for the disciples of Taiyi Sect.
A large number of disciples were lost in **** battles, and many outstanding disciples stood out.
Meng Zhang and several Jindan monks in his sect took turns going to the front line to supervise the battle, always paying attention to the changes in the battle situation.
Teams of low-level disciples from the four sects took to the battlefield, struggling to survive in the **** meat grinder.
At this time, no one has any escape route, and everyone must persist to the end.
Although we know that sacrifices cannot be avoided in war, and people will inevitably die in wars. But when he saw a disciple named Taiyi Sect who had been carefully trained for many years, being quickly consumed on the battlefield like a consumable, Meng Zhang couldn’t help but feel unbearable.
As the instigators of the war, the Huoyun Sect and the Huanglian Sect’s Hedong Branch also did not want to see this scene.
Especially the Fire Cloud Sect, which suffered heavy losses during its previous invasions of the Endless Sand Sea, has yet to recover.
Leaving aside the Jindan master in the sect, the Fire Cloud Sect is not much better than Fei Hongzong in terms of low-level disciples in the sect.
As a new force, the Hedong Branch of the Huanglian Sect was not only strong in itself, but also recruited many vassal forces to join the war.
Before the split, the Huanglian Sect was a powerful force at the forefront of the entire Jiuqu League. Even after the split, the power of each branch is stronger than most of the Jindan sects in the Jiuqu League.
The Hedong Branch of the Huanglian Sect took on the main offensive task this time and sent a steady stream of monks to participate in the battle.
Of course, even the Hedong branch, which has a large family and a large business, still feels heartache in the face of heavy losses.
Even if the high-level monks no longer regard the low-level disciples as human beings, they do not want the disciples of the sect to lose too much and affect all aspects of the sect.
Unfortunately, the Huoyun Sect and the Hedong Branch do not have many choices.
They had no choice but to choose this method to fight Taiyi Sect and Feihong Sect.
They are looking for various excuses to deal with it and are unwilling to start a full-scale war, just because they are trying to reduce their own losses.
This time they took the initiative to provoke a fight, which was also part of the exploratory mission.
If the real Lord Tianzhu cannot be tested for a long time, the two true Lords of Yuanshen behind him will definitely force them to launch an all-out war.
I just don’t know how long the two True Lords of Yuanshen can endure it.
It is one thing to let the disciples of the sect be trained, but it is another thing to let them die in meaningless battles. After Meng Zhang stayed on the front line for a while, he felt that he could not sit back and watch.
The initiative in the war is not in Meng Zhang’s hands, and he is even less willing to escalate the war.
Although the casualties are a bit heavier now, the war situation can still be maintained. If all the enemy Jindan Zhenren were defeated, Taiyi Sect and Feihong Sect might not be able to withstand them.
In order to cope with this kind of battle, Taiyi Sect invested heavily in purchasing massive war supplies from Gale City and distributed them to the disciples participating in the war.
The Taiyi Sect strives to improve the combat effectiveness of its disciples regardless of cost. At most, it can reduce casualties, but it cannot solve the fundamental problem.
Meng Zhang thought for a long time and felt that the best way was to have other forces participate in the war to replace the disciples.
At the beginning of the war, Taiyi Sect had already offered high rewards and hired monks from Jiuqu League to participate in the war.
The Huoyun Sect and the Hedong branch have been inherited for thousands of years, and their heritage is far richer than that of the Taiyi Sect. If you really use your family resources, your financial resources will be stronger than those of Taiyi Sect.
Taiyimen can hire cannon fodder, they can also hire cannon fodder, and even offer better conditions to hire more cannon fodder.
Taiyi Sect has many cultivation forces in the Hanhai Dao Alliance to control, and the Hedong Branch and the Huoyun Sect also have many vassals.
As the war continued, a large number of hired monks were lost on the battlefield, and it became increasingly difficult for both sides to hire new cannon fodder.
No matter how high the reward is, you still have to have life to spend it.
The monks of the vassal forces have limited combat capabilities, so they need to send their direct disciples as the backbone to undertake the main combat tasks.
Seeing that he could not think of a better way for the time being, Meng Zhang turned his attention to Tianji Technique.
As the mastery of Tianjishu deepens, it becomes increasingly difficult for Meng Zhang to perform Tianjishu once.
The more you come into contact with the way of heaven, the more wariness and fear will arise in your heart, and you will become more cautious.
Using the secret technique to peek into the changes of heaven and deduce the past and future will sooner or later be counterattacked by heaven.
Although Meng Zhang has not suffered backlash yet, it is because the backlash he has accumulated is not enough.
If you continue to use Tianji Technique without any scruples, the accumulated backlash will only become stronger and stronger, and one day it will explode.
The second reason is because he killed the demon Xiu Ye Feifan last time and gained heavenly merit, which can offset the backlash to a certain extent.
Meng Zhang is now becoming more and more cautious about the use of Tianji Technique. If there is no real need, he usually won’t use it easily. Moreover, he will not take the initiative to touch problems that are too difficult to calculate.
Just like the dangerous situation Taiyi Sect is currently facing, because it involves the True Lord Yuanshen. If he rashly speculates on a solution, the consequences of finding nothing will be minor. Once you are attacked by the law of heaven, you may lose your life.
Therefore, when faced with the problem, Meng Zhang could only solve it bit by bit and solve it bit by bit.
After careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, Meng Zhang felt that his calculation should not lead to bad consequences and could solve the problem, so he was ready to put it into practice.
Because the Golden Core Stage monks on both sides did not directly participate in the battle, the Taiyi Sect side still had relatively ample manpower. Meng Zhang left the front line and returned to the door.
After returning to Baicao Slope, Meng Zhang retreated to practice magic and performed the Dayan Divine Calculation. After some deductions, he had the answer in his mind.
He told his disciples, left Baicao Slope, and flew toward the Death Sand Sea.
Meng Zhang did not delay on the road and flew directly to the center of the Death Sand Sea, not far from the battlefield where Tianzhu Zhenjun and the fifth-level earth spirit died together.
Because of their battle, the space here was torn apart as if the end was coming, and countless space cracks appeared and disappeared in it.
Storms from different spaces roared past, and the earth often shook violently. The earth is covered with bottomless ravines, and the magma flowing from the ground flows everywhere. The sky was filled with black smoke and poisonous fire, and thick black clouds blocked the sunlight.
The most terrifying thing is that the two warring parties wantonly activated the power of the avenue and distorted the rules of the surrounding world. The rules here are a mess.
The magma is flowing towards the sky like a backward waterfall. The flames and rain were intertwined, but they didn’t affect each other.
If an ordinary cultivator enters this place, up, down, left, and right will be completely upside down, and he will soon lose the basic sense of space.
Take a step at will and you may fall into another space. Those who are unlucky will be directly cut into pieces by the space cracks.
When Master Jin Dan came here, he only dared to wander around the outside and never dared to go deep easily.
The closer you get to the center of the battlefield, the more powerful the remaining power of the avenue becomes, and you can easily hurt Jin Dan.
Meng Zhang stood in the distance, looking in the direction of the battlefield, his face looking very ugly.
Since the war that year, Meng Zhang would come to this place every once in a while to investigate the changes here.
Compared to when True Lord Tianzhu and the fifth-level earth spirit died together, the situation here has been much better. If you sense it carefully, you can clearly feel that the remaining power of the avenue around you becomes weaker and weaker as time goes by.
The traces left by the original war may not disappear for thousands of years, but after the power of the avenue fades, there will no longer be any power to prevent outsiders from entering the center of the battlefield.
After the death of True Lord Yuanshen, there will usually be phenomena of Dao disappearing. Such a vision can last for hundreds of years.
Without the obstruction of the remaining power of the Great Dao on the periphery, as long as the cultivators get a little closer, they can find the strange phenomenon of Dao disappearing and know that True Lord Tianzhu must have fallen.
Without the intimidation of True Lord Tianzhu, and without the help of True Lord Yue Feng and True Lord Xuanfeng, their men alone could easily destroy the Taiyi Sect.
Meng Zhang estimated the speed at which the power of the great avenue will disappear. Taiyi Sect still has at most thirty years left.
If by that time, Jin Li has not succeeded in achieving Yuan Shen, then Taiyi Sect will have to make other plans.
Meng Zhang put aside these troubles for the time being and took care of the present first.
He walked around the battlefield and searched carefully based on the results he had deduced.
After searching around for several days, Meng Zhang finally found his target when he passed a sand dune.
Under the observation of his Delusion-Destroying Dharma Eye, he saw through the yellow sand hundreds of feet deep. A strange crystal the size of a human head and shaped like a honeycomb was quietly buried underground.
With a flick of his hand, the entire dune was blown away by an invisible force. Countless pieces of yellow sand rose up from the ground, and then were heavily thrown into the distance, revealing the crystal.
Meng Zhang used his Dharma Eye again, but was unable to see through the inside of the crystal. He repeatedly probed with his spiritual mind, but found nothing wrong.
His spiritual sense gave no warning, indicating that this crystal was not a dangerous item.
Meng Zhang held the crystal in his hand with a slight move of his right hand.
After repeated observations, we even used the Dayan Calculation to make calculations. Meng Zhang finally figured out the details of this crystal.
This crystal is not a magic weapon or a spiritual object, but a rare treasure.
The so-called rare treasures in the world of cultivation are often treasures with special functions.
The rare treasures are either refined by great power or born from heaven and earth.
Rare treasures contain magical power, and they cannot be graded using the grade classification commonly used in the world of cultivation.
Meng Zhang has not figured out the function of this rare treasure yet, and this place is not a quiet place where he can calm down and study it.
Meng Zhang flew high into the sky, took this newly acquired treasure, and returned directly to Baicao Slope, the mountain gate of Taiyi Gate.
After returning to the mountain gate, Meng Zhang first contacted the golden elixir monks who were on duty at the front line to confirm that there were no new changes in the battle situation. Then he calmed down and slowly studied this rare treasure.
Meng Zhang spent more than three months on this research before he could barely figure out the general details of this rare treasure.
This rare treasure is not a product of Junchen Realm, but comes from another world in the outer void.
This rare treasure was not produced naturally by heaven and earth, but was refined by the day after tomorrow.
As for its origin and specific refining process, Meng Zhang is not clear.
A lot of what he knew about this rare treasure was his own guess.
God Dayan is not omnipotent. Even if Meng Zhang puts aside his scruples and uses it with all his strength, he can only deduce part of the information.
According to Meng Zhang’s guess based on various information, this rare treasure somehow fell into the hands of the fifth-level earth spirit and was brought to the Junchen Realm.
This rare treasure has the magical ability to derive and reproduce, and can create various creatures according to various templates.
The fifth-level earth spirit probably designed a set of templates based on many characteristics of the earth spirit clan and created a brand new species, the sand monster.
The earliest sand monster was born from this rare treasure.
The ability of the fifth-level earth spirit is certainly not comparable to that of a golden elixir monk like Meng Zhang. Not only was it able to give full play to the role of this rare treasure, but after figuring out its details, it also imitated it and created a sand monster lair.
This rare treasure alone is too slow to create sand monsters and cannot meet the requirements of fifth-level earth spirits.
Although the sand monster nest it created after this rare treasure has many flaws and is far from as fully functional as this rare treasure, it is still barely enough.
The fifth-level earth spirit came to this world alone and faced crusade again and again.
When it had a gambling fight with Tianzhu Zhenjun, Tianzhu Zhenjun initially thought that it would win quickly even though it had no help and was alone.
But with this rare treasure, the fifth-level earth spirit can create a large number of sand monsters as his helpers. In the gambling battle, he confronted the men of Tianzhu Zhenjun.
Later, I felt that this rare treasure was too slow to create sand monsters, so the fifth-level earth spirit imitated that rare treasure and first created the seeds of the sand monster’s nest. He used various means to spread these seeds throughout the Death Sand Sea, growing into sand monster nests throughout the Death Sand Sea, giving birth to countless sand monsters.
There are also many sand monster nest seeds, which are scattered into the endless sand sea and grow into sand monster nests. In the history of the Endless Sand Sea, there have been disasters caused by sand monsters one after another, causing catastrophes and causing huge losses to the cultivation world of the Endless Sand Sea.
If Feihong Sect had not dealt with it well and had the secret help of Jin Li, the entire endless sand sea might have been overturned by the endless group of sand monsters.
It is precisely because of the repeated sand monster disasters that the Feihong Sect has exerted a lot of energy and consumed many resources of the Feihong Sect. As the ruler of the endless sand sea, the Feihong Sect has never been able to make a breakthrough and can only be trapped in the endless sand sea.
This rare treasure is probably carried by a fifth-level earth spirit. After it was blown up by Zhenjun Tianzhu, for some unknown reason, this rare treasure flew out and landed on the outskirts of the battlefield.
