Dafeng City officials do not allow the caravans of Feihong City and other three forces to go shopping in Dafeng City. Until the end of the war, all caravans in Gale City are not allowed to step into the endless sea of sand.
The official regulations of Gale City are very detailed and have no loopholes, blocking all channels for external transactions of the three forces.
Gale City is the closest trading city to the Endless Sand Sea. It is difficult for caravans from the Endless Sand Sea to bypass Gale City and continue trading with other places in the Jiuqu League. Even if they entered the Jiuqu League, I am afraid that no force would offend a True Lord of Yuanshen for a mere piece of business.
As one of the few large commercial cities in the Jiuqu League, Dafeng City occupies a dominant position. If it weren't for the lack of a True Lord of Yuanshen, it would have become the top force in the Jiuqu Alliance long ago.
It would also take a lot of effort for True Lord Xuanfeng to subdue Da Feng City.
He raised the banner of unity within the Jiuqu League and expressed the friendship of allies, claiming that Gale City and the Fire Cloud Sect were both members of the Jiuqu League and should look after each other. If Gale City trades with the enemies of the Fire Cloud Sect, it will be siding with the enemy.
In addition to using these fair excuses to carry out moral kidnapping. Secretly, Zhenjun Xuanfeng also did a lot of work.
Although the Lu family and the Gu Yue family in charge of Da Feng City did not have True Lord Yuanshen, with their background, they were able to find True Lord Yuanshen to come forward and help.
However, the favor of True Monarch Yuanshen was too precious, and they were unwilling to use their family's trump card just for the sake of trade on the other side of the endless sand sea. The benefits brought by the Feihong Sect and other three forces are not worth the amount they have to pay to offend a True Lord of Yuanshen.
Gale City cut off its trade with Endless Sand Sea, and the impact was huge.
War in the world of cultivation also attaches great importance to logistics and consumes a lot of various war materials.
The three forces now consume a large amount of elixirs, talismans, mechanism creations, etc. every day. Without the supplies from Gale City, it would not be able to survive for too long relying on its own inventory alone.
Among the three forces, Feihong Sect has the deepest foundation and once had the most powerful production capacity in the entire Endless Sand Sea. However, Feihong Sect has experienced many disasters, and even the mountain gate was lost, and most of these production capabilities were also dissipated.
Although Feihong Sect left some monks to stay in Huangshaling, and these monks worked day and night to refine various needed materials. But that pitiful production capacity is far from keeping up with the consumption on the front line.
The shortcomings of Taiyi Sect are that its rise was too short and its foundation is too shallow. The production system within the sect that Meng Zhang had developed with all his strength was only beginning to take shape and was far from enough to support such a war.
Not to mention the Mobei Qi family. Living in Mobei, the most remote and barren land in the endless sand sea, with a lack of resources, it was only thanks to the blood transfusion of True Lord Qi Mingyun that he could persist until now. The production capacity of the entire family cannot keep up with the current Taiyi Sect.
Originally, the three forces thought that there would be more than three months for them to conquer Feihong Mountain.
But with Zhenjun Xuanfeng making such a fuss, the war supplies of the three forces can still last for two months at most.
In addition, since Lord Xuanfeng has already taken action, it is probably not that simple. They were just afraid that he might have some follow-up methods that would make them unable to resist.
Their biggest hope now is that Tianzhu Zhenjun can take action in time.
However, they cannot interfere with when True Lord Tianzhu takes action or how True Lord Yuanshen will compete with each other.
The only thing the four Jindan Masters can do is to continue fighting and strengthen the offensive against Feihong Mountain.
The situation was grim, and the three forces did not dare to hide their secrets at this time, so they all spent their last resources.
Originally, several of the Taiyi Sect's guardian generals stayed in the mountain gate to refine the spiritual objects of heaven and earth. But when the sect was in urgent need of combat power, Meng Zhang had to recruit them.
Except for the weak water god general who was refining Tianyi True Water at the most critical moment and couldn't leave, the other three protector god generals quickly rushed to the battlefield.
Among the heaven and earth spiritual objects given by True Lord Tianzhu, apart from the Tianyi True Water that Weak Water God General is refining, there are two spiritual objects for the Thunder God General and Ji Sword God General to refine.
The two guardian generals who successfully refined the spiritual objects of heaven and earth have made great progress in their cultivation.
The Thunder God General is still a little short of being able to restore his cultivation to the Golden Core stage. The Ji Sword God General's cultivation has returned to the completion of the foundation building period.
The Houtu God General had already returned to the perfect level of cultivation during the foundation building period. Some time ago, he had been presiding over the repair of the third-level spiritual vein over there in the crow's nest.
After a period of repairs, a lot of manpower and material resources were spent, and finally some small results were achieved.
After receiving Meng Zhang's message, he quickly rushed to the front line with a group of his men.
After God General Houtu came to the front line, Meng Zhang specifically consulted him if there was a better way to break the flames covering the ground deployed by the Fire Cloud Sect.
God General Houtu is an earth master and has deep attainments in formations. And as a former golden elixir expert, he is no stranger to the third-level mountain protection formation.
Although the master of formations in the sect, Wen Qiansuan, has high attainments in formations, he is limited to only the cultivation level of the foundation-building stage and is basically helpless against the third-level formations.
When he first attacked the Linquan Mountain Viewing Gate, God General Houtu used the method of digging out the earth's veins to break a second-level mountain-protecting formation.
Meng Zhang now wants to know whether General Houtu can repeat his old tricks and come up with some shortcuts to break the formation.
Houtu God General spent a lot of time to conduct a careful survey, walked around Feihong Mountain, and thought about it for a long time.
Finally, he told Meng Zhang that Feihong Mountain was no better than Linquan Temple back then. The ground around here was stable. Even if the three forces went all out and spent ten or eight years, they might not be able to dig out the ground.
Although he has some unique methods for earth masters, due to his current lack of cultivation, he cannot use them at all.
This flame-covering formation is very clever and has very few flaws. If you want to break the formation, there is probably no other shortcut other than going head-on and slowly consuming it.
Now that the Houtu God General said so, Meng Zhang was greatly disappointed, but he also knew that the only way to consume the formation was to use human lives to pile it up.
Houtu God will be one of his trump cards, and it does not bring him any surprises.
However, the arrival of three guardian gods who had completed their foundation building period to join the battle greatly increased Taiyi Sect's combat effectiveness.
Although they do not have the strength of the Golden Core stage, they have the vision and experience of the Golden Core stage. On the battlefield, the huge effect it exerts is far beyond what ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage can compare with.
The three forces stepped up their attack on Feihong Mountain. Not only did the cannon fodder suffer heavy losses, but even their respective direct monks began to suffer many casualties.
Although Meng Zhang tried hard to take care of his disciples, on such a cruel battlefield, Taiyi disciples still suffered a lot of battle losses.
