Meng Zhang coaxed and deceived, first convincing Shangguanwen, and then Shangguanwen persuaded the remaining monks of Dihuomen. The two sects finally captured the mountain gate of Dihuomen without any blood.
Shangguan Wen has been detained in Taiyi Gate and has no contact with the outside world. In his heart, he was terrified of the powerful Feihong Sect.
Therefore, he believed Meng Zhang's lies and truly believed that the Feihong Sect had won a great victory and that the Earth Fire Sect's expeditionary army had been completely wiped out.
As for Zhenren Lieyan, there has been no news for so many years, and there is no hope for the time being.
Therefore, in order to preserve the inheritance of Dihuo Sect, Shangguanwen told the same lie to the remaining monks of Dihuo Sect.
The remaining monks from Dihuo Sect were trapped in Chou City, and all news from the outside world was cut off. Of course, they believed Shangguan Wen, a monk who was very prestigious in the sect.
When the Dihuo Sect monks voluntarily surrendered and the two sects entered the Dihuo Sect Mountain Gate, even if they knew the truth, it would be too late to regret it.
Shangguan Wen is not someone who trusts others easily. He is willing to believe Meng Zhang. In addition to Meng Zhang's lies, Meng Zhang also made a demon oath in front of him, saying that he would do his best to save the lives of these monks. We will also do our best to keep the legacy of Earth Fire Sect alive.
The higher the monk's cultivation level, the stronger the restraint ability of the inner demon oath.
Those young monks in the Qi refining stage who have no hope of building a foundation in their whole life don't have to care much about the inner demon oath.
For monks in the foundation-building stage, the binding power of the inner demon oath is very strong.
Especially monks with great prospects like Meng Zhang cannot easily violate the inner demon oath.
Apart from anything else, after the foundation building stage is completed, if you want to rush into the golden elixir stage, the inner demon level is a level that must be passed.
After occupying the Dihuomen Mountain Gate, all the Dihuomen monks, including Shangguan Wen, were restricted in their cultivation and imprisoned secretly.
In this way, Meng Zhang would not be considered as violating his inner demon oath.
Moreover, imprisoning them secretly did prevent them from being retaliated by the Feihong Sect.
The mountain gate that completely took over the Earth Fire Gate was considered the biggest loot since the war began.
According to the previous agreement, this loot belongs exclusively to Taiyi Sect.
Although the Dihuo Sect's expeditionary army took away a large amount of supplies, Taiyi Sect still gained a lot from the Dihuo Sect's warehouse. In particular, many rare and precious spiritual objects were discovered, and even Meng Zhang was very satisfied.
Among them, the two heaven and earth spiritual objects, the Sun Gold Stone and the Taiyin Jade Liquid, are difficult to buy even in Gale City, even if they only have some scraps.
Now that these two spiritual objects of heaven and earth have fallen into Meng Zhang's hands, he only needs to refine them thoroughly, which can save at least ten or twenty years before he can complete the foundation building period.
In the endless sand sea where the situation is becoming increasingly tense and the war is becoming more fierce, Meng Zhang urgently needs to quickly improve his strength. These two heavenly and earthly spiritual objects came at just the right time.
The various classics collected in the Dihuo Gate Scripture Collection Pavilion are even more abundant.
The Earth Fire Sect was a powerful force on par with the original Shuangfeng Valley. In terms of wealth, it was still above Shuangfeng Valley.
Sitting in the cornucopia of Huojingfang City, one can not only collect a large amount of cultivation resources, but also have access to various cultivation classics.
With this Sutra Pavilion, it is almost possible to rebuild an Earth Fire Gate.
Adding these classics to Taiyi Sect's Sutra Pavilion will not only greatly enhance Taiyi Sect's heritage, but also make up for Taiyi Sect's shortcomings.
The Earth Fire Sect's weapon refining technique is unique. In particular, Dihuomen's secret recipe for refining red flame oil is particularly precious.
The Feihong Sect was urging them urgently, and Meng Zhang couldn't delay for too long.
He took care of Shangguan Wen and others, and after briefly counting the loot, he was about to set off.
Meng Zhang, General Houtu, Hu Jing, Aunt Jin and Jin Qiaoer, the five foundation-building monks were all named by Feihong Sect and must rush to the front line of the battle between Zhao Liefeng and Dihuomen as soon as possible.
In desperation, Meng Zhang had no choice but to ask Shi Changqing, who had been in seclusion to get rid of erysipelas, to temporarily leave seclusion and take charge of the overall situation.
At the critical moment, being interrupted like this, Shi Changqing will need to spend more time to get rid of the erysipelas in the future.
Of course, the situation here at Taiyimen is not bad. On the Tu Xing Sect side, even the old and frail Foundation Establishment Stage monk who was in charge of the sect was forced to go to the battlefield.
In addition, Meng Zhang also left behind a group of capable Qi Refining Stage disciples to help Shi Changqing maintain order in the territory.
After hurriedly arranging various matters, Meng Zhangcai took the coalition forces of the two sects and took a flying boat to the territory of Feihong Sect.
Along the way, all the Feihong Sect strongholds passed by, including the original mountain gate of Shuangfeng Valley, the original mountain gate of Qingzhu Mountain, etc., have all been destroyed by the Earth Fire Sect army.
The monks were slaughtered and all the buildings were pushed down. Probably because of the tight time limit, the Earth Fire Sect had not yet had time to destroy the spiritual field and damage the spiritual veins.
I saw that the spiritual plants on many spiritual fields were still intact, and many were about to mature.
Meng Zhang rolled his eyes. No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, they are still meat. Moreover, this place is not far from the territory of Taiyi Sect, so it can be taken care of both ways.
Meng Zhang left several Qi-refining period disciples in each of these places and asked them to take care of the spiritual fields and harvest them when the spiritual plants matured.
In addition, when they are free, they can also search the ruins. If they can find something, it will be their windfall.
On this expedition, Meng Zhang didn't even bring a single monk who was in the early stages of Qi training. Even monks in the middle stage of Qi refining should choose those who are smarter and have strong survivability. Some late-stage Qi Refining monks should also be left to guard the territory.
Therefore, the total number of Qi-refining period disciples from the two sects, Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect, was less than 200.
Two second-level flying boats can accommodate everyone.
The two second-level flying boats can be regarded as light vehicles, and they are very fast. It did not take long to enter the territory directly under the Feihong Sect.
This place was already some distance away from the Taiyimen territory, and Meng Zhang had no intention of taking advantage and ordered the flying boat to speed up.
Finally, within the limited time issued by Feihong Sect, Feizhou rushed to the battlefield and joined Zhao Liefeng.
During this period of fierce fighting, not only the Qi Refining Stage disciples on both sides suffered heavy casualties, but also several Foundation Establishment Stage monks were killed. Both sides were angry and fighting to the death.
In fact, the strength of Zhao Liefeng's side was not as good as that of Dihuo Sect. Although he gave all his support and the monks under his command fought tooth and nail with the hope of victory, they still slowly fell into a disadvantage.
The reinforcements brought by Meng Zhang came at the right time and helped Zhao Liefeng a great favor.
When the reinforcements arrived, it was the end of a big battle and both sides had temporarily withdrawn their troops and returned to camp.
There is an oasis ahead, which is the camp of Feihong Sect.
Meng Zhang and Aunt Jin left the flying boat far away, and they flew directly to the Feihong Sect's camp to meet Zhao Liefeng.
Although this place is still far away from the battlefield, with the eyesight of Meng Zhang and Aunt Jin, they can still take in the situation around the battlefield.
In the desert less than a hundred miles in front of Feihong Sect's camp, the ground is full of potholes and ravines of different sizes, with traces of freezing, burning, etc. everywhere.
The broken limbs, mutilated bodies, and flowing blood that had not yet been cleaned up on the battlefield shocked the two of them greatly.
