Gu Yue Huaidie personally went to Yaofeng Gobi and brought this mountain protection formation to Meng Zhang.
Originally, the placement of a mountain-protecting formation of this level required sending formation masters who were familiar with the formation to visit the site in person. After surveying the terrain, they organized manpower and carefully laid out the formation.
The formation masters of Jiqiao Sect were originally unwilling to go to Yaofeng Gobi. Meng Zhang felt that the details of setting up the formation were Taiyi Sect's secrets and should not be left in the hands of others.
Therefore, Taiyi Sect independently deployed this third-level formation.
There are many blueprints for this third-level formation, as well as a lot of formation flags, formation plates, etc. It will take a lot of time just to sort out these items.
As for the other items in the secret boxes, they were all ordinary spiritual objects, and the three Jindan Masters divided them up at will.
Gu Yue Huaidie brought the things to Meng Zhang and left in a hurry.
Divine General Houtu, who was regulating his spiritual veins, also temporarily stopped what he was doing and studied the formation carefully with Wen Qiansuan.
Wen Qiansuan's cultivation has already entered the middle stage of foundation building, and his formation skills have improved greatly. However, he assisted the Houtu God General to study this formation, which still made him feel very strenuous.
It took more than three years, and Meng Zhang and Luo Ye Zhenren also took many actions under the assignment of God General Houtu, before they reluctantly completed the deployment of this mountain protection formation.
Houtu God General clearly told Meng Zhang that due to the strength of him and Wen Qiansuan, the layout of this formation was not perfect. There are still many details that can only be adjusted slowly after he regains his strength or Wen Qianshuan advances to the golden elixir stage.
However, this formation can still be used, but it cannot exert its full power.
In addition, the spiritual energy provided by the third-level spiritual veins in Xiongshi Ridge is limited. On weekdays, most of the functions of this mountain-protecting formation are closed. Only when a strong enemy attacks, will the firepower be fully activated.
Although there are many unsatisfactory aspects, at least it is protected by the third-order mountain guarding formation.
In the worst case scenario, Taiyi Sect can abandon all strongholds on Yaofeng Gobi, retreat to Xiongshi Ridge, and rely on this mountain-protecting formation to defend.
With Meng Zhang leading many disciples of the Taiyi Sect to rely on the large formation to defend, even the Dark Crow Demon General would not be able to break through the large formation and attack the Lion Ridge.
With Meng Zhang to rely on, he is more confident.
A few years later, the Dark Alliance began to summon Luoye Zhenren back. She could no longer stay here and had to leave.
Master Luo Ye secretly left without saying a word, and Meng Zhang had to bravely show up outside the crow's nest so that the Dark Crow Demon General could not figure out the truth.
The intelligence capabilities of the monster beasts are far inferior to those of the human monks, especially the Dark Crow Demon General who has been unable to escape. Until now, they have not figured out the specific situation on the human side.
Of course, Gu Yue Huai Die didn't appear for a long time, which still made the poisonous sand demon general a little suspicious.
Meng Zhang walked around outside the crow's nest and felt that this would not work. Lack of strength and relying solely on intimidation is not a long-term solution.
Monsters are not idiots, and they will figure out their own reality sooner or later.
By that time, the great situation of Taiyi Sect might completely collapse.
Although Meng Zhang was sure of guarding Xiongshi Ridge, he had to retreat to Xiongshi Ridge, which meant that Taiyi Sect had to give up all the development results in Yaofeng Gobi, and the losses caused were too great.
Meng Zhang would not make this choice unless he had to. The best case scenario is that they can continue to suppress the Dark Crow Demon General.
Since Taiyi Sect has no possibility of giving birth to Jindan combat power in a short period of time, it still has no choice but to seek help from outside.
Forget about the Endless Sand Sea, just see if there is any good solution from the Jiuqu League.
After Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye Zhenren returned, they did not completely cut off contact with Meng Zhang.
Every once in a while, a caravan from Taiyi Sect will go to Gale City for trade.
These flying boat teams carrying valuable cargo are often escorted by foundation-building monks, among whom the Ether Yi Sect monks are the main escort.
The letters between Meng Zhang, Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye Zhenren were delivered by these Taiyi Sect monks.
Meng Zhang sent a letter to Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye Zhenren respectively, asking them to help him keep an eye on it to see if he could find a suitable Jindan Zhenren for temporary employment by Taiyi Sect.
After receiving Meng Zhang's letter, Gu Yue Huaidie and Luo Ye Zhenren tried their best to help Meng Zhang inquire about it.
Gu Yue Huaidie was very popular and quickly contacted several Jindan masters.
But these Jindan Daoist people immediately refused as soon as they heard that they were going to Yaofeng Gobi. Either they offer a very high employment price, making it unaffordable for Taiyi Sect.
Master Luo Ye has served in the Dark Alliance for many years and is very well-informed. After much trouble, she chose a suitable employee for Meng Zhang.
This person's name is Qin Hongying. She is the Supreme Elder of a cultivation family in the Jiuqu Alliance and the only Golden Core cultivator in this family.
Qin Hongying's cultivation has reached the peak of the early golden elixir stage, but she still cannot cross that threshold and enter the middle stage of the golden elixir.
She was already over five hundred years old, and she probably didn't even have a single lifetime left in her life.
By this point, she had completely given up on her own path. The only thing I feel confident about now is the family I come from.
The Jiuqu League seems to be peaceful, but the competition is very fierce, and all kinds of overt and covert struggles have never stopped.
After Qin Hongying's death, the Qin family will inevitably fall from the Jindan family and lose many benefits.
There are many such examples in the history of Jiuqu League.
After the Qin family weakened, they could only lie dormant quietly, waiting for their rise again in the future.
If another Jindan Zhenren can be cultivated in the future, the Qin family may not be able to regain its glory.
However, Qin Hongying had made many enemies back then, including a certain narrow-minded Jin Dan Zhenren.
When Qin Hongying was alive, the enemies had nothing to do with the Qin family. But once Qin Hongying dies, the Qin family will be in big trouble.
Of course, the Jiuqu League still has its rules. Even if the other party hated the Qin family, he would not dare to publicly kill the Qin family members.
However, as a Jindan Zhenren, he had enough ability to secretly cause the Qin family to collapse and slowly die.
When people are around and people are around, the tea will get cold when people are gone. After Qin Hongying passed away, relying on some face and favors alone could not protect the Qin family for long.
In order to deal with the posthumous affairs, she was worried about Qin Hongying. She thought of many ways, but none of them were suitable and could not completely solve the problem.
After Master Luoye learned about this, he took the initiative to visit Qin Hongying and spent a lot of time convincing her.
Then, Luoye Zhenren took Qin Hongying and went to Yaofeng Gobi together, and found Meng Zhang at Xiongshi Ridge.
After some discussion, the three reached an agreement.
As a guest of Taiyi Sect, Qin Hongying has served Taiyi Sect for thirty years.
