As for the more important aspect of annihilating the sand monster nests, although the four major forces only sent partial troops, it does not mean that they do not pay enough attention to it, but based on the actual battle situation.
There have long been experienced monks who are good at searching for sand monster nests and have determined that this group of sand monsters came from three different sand monster nests.
The sand monster's lair has always been extremely hidden and very hidden, making it difficult to accurately determine its location.
These monks were dispatched many times and spent a lot of effort, but they could only determine the approximate location of the sand monster's lair.
Several areas where there may be sand monster lairs are marked on the map.
Therefore, the four major forces recruited vassal forces respectively, hoping to rely on the human sea tactics to determine the location of the sand monster's lair as soon as possible and then destroy it.
Shuangfeng Valley summoned vassal forces this time, and what they needed to search was one of the areas.
After introducing the general situation of the battle, Xiao Shenqiang made a seal with both hands, and a huge sand table appeared in the sky.
What is displayed on the sand table is the topography of the surrounding area for hundreds of miles.
The contents of the sand table are very detailed and clearly show many details.
"Open your eyes wide, see everything on the sand table clearly, and remember it firmly in your mind." Xiao Shenqiang ordered seriously.
The memory of cultivators far exceeds that of ordinary people, and they have more or less photographic memory.
Including Meng Zhang, the cultivators below concentrated on memorizing it quickly.
After a while, when everyone felt that their memories were almost complete, Xiao Shenqiang began to assign tasks.
Each force was assigned areas of different sizes based on the number and strength of the monks it sent.
Since the sand monster's lair is buried deep underground, it is only possible to find it by using stupid methods and searching the suspicious area inch by inch.
"Any monk who discovers the sand monster's lair first will be exempted from three years of service to his faction." Xiao Shenqiang offered a reward.
All the vassal forces under Shuangfeng Valley must hand over a large part of their annual income to Shuangfeng Valley as offerings.
Being exempted from paying tribute for three consecutive years is a huge sum of spiritual stones, and it is very tempting for every vassal force.
"If anyone dares to retreat before the battle, he will be killed without mercy."
If a reward is offered, punishment is inevitable.
The smile on Xiao Shen's round face was gone, and he looked a bit stern.
"You just have to dig through every grain of sand in the desert to find the sand monster's nest for me."
"If no one can discover the sand monster's lair within ten days, all your families and sects will double their offerings this year."
At this point, Xiao Shenqiang felt like he was gritting his teeth.
Shan Ying, who had been sullen and silent, suddenly said something.
"If someone dares to sneak around and miss the sand monster's lair hidden in his assigned area, the only consequence will be to kill everyone in the family, without mercy."
Regardless of the mourning in the crowd below, Shan Ying dispersed the crowd below with a wave of his hand.
"If you don't act quickly, today will be the first day."
Glancing at the sky, night was about to fall, and the bitter look on everyone's faces became even stronger.
No matter how much they lamented or even hid their dissatisfaction, no one had the intention or strength to resist Shuangfenggu.
The crowd dispersed quickly, and the cultivators began to leave the camp in groups.
It is Shuangfenggu's right to recruit them, and as vassals, they also have the obligation to obey Shuangfenggu.
Everyone began to act according to Shuangfenggu's orders. I just hope I can have good luck and discover the sand monster's lair as soon as possible.
After Meng Zhang and Xu Chengxian said goodbye, they took Tian Zhen and Fang Yong and set off.
Except for a few factions such as the Zhao family, which have flying boats, most of the monks in the camp ride on various mounts. Among them there are many monster mounts that are more powerful than Chasing the Wind Horse.
Meng Zhang and the others rode the wind-chasing horse and ran all the way, and soon left the camp far behind.
There are only three monks from Taiyi Sect, and they are not strong enough. The search area arranged by Shuangfenggu for them was only a small area.
This is not because Shuangfenggu has good intentions, but because he is worried that something will happen.
Every day the sand monster lair exists, the potential threat grows.
By the time Meng Zhang and the others arrived at their destination, night had fallen, which made searching for the sand monster's lair a lot more difficult.
The three of them jumped off their mounts and began to search carefully, regardless of the darkness.
In the flat desert, there is no obstruction as far as the eye can see. The sand monster's lair cannot be above the ground.
There is no clue about the sand monster's lair buried deep underground from the ground.
If you want to search for the sand monster's nest, you usually have to use the earth escape technique to search underground.
Even if they are monks in the late stage of Qi refining, not everyone can perform earth escape.
If you don't know how to use the Earth Escape Technique, you can still use the Earth Escape Technique Talisman.
If you don't even have the earth escape talisman, then just dig a hole honestly.
It is definitely very difficult to complete the search task within the designated time in Shuangfeng Valley.
All the monks from the vassal forces began to take action against the clock.
Although the monks of the Zhao family drove the flying boat to the destination first, there was no way to search the ground below on the flying boat.
A monk from the Zhao family jumped off the flying boat obediently, and began to use the earth escape technique to drill into the ground, carefully searching every place.
After all the vassal monks started taking action, many Shuangfenggu monks also left the camp.
Although Shuangfeng Valley's main combat force was sent out to fight against the sand monster swarm, many disciples were still arranged to search for the sand monster's lair. Shuangfenggu disciples will personally search the places where sand monster lairs are most likely to exist.
Shuangfenggu definitely trusts his disciples more than the vassal forces that are mixed with good and bad.
Shan Ying and Xiao Shenqiang, two foundation-building monks, are stationed in the main camp and can provide support to all parties at any time when news is received.
Meng Zhang looked at the area assigned to Taiyi Sect. It was really difficult to search this area within the limited time.
However, no matter how difficult it is, the tasks assigned by Shuangfenggu must be completed on time.
None of the three men, Meng Zhang, has the ability to perform earth escape techniques, but fortunately, Meng Zhang has always been equipped with a lot of earth escape talismans.
According to Meng Zhang's idea, if there is a sand monster nest underground. No matter how deep the sand monster's lair is hidden, passages must be left for the sand monster to enter and exit.
The exits of these passages must be close to the ground so that the sand monster can enter and exit easily.
It's a pity that although Meng Zhang's illusion-breaking Dharma Eye can see through illusions, it cannot penetrate too deep into the ground. If the entrance and exit of the passage were not nearby, he would not be able to see the passage buried too deep.
