Not only Taiyi Sect, but the entire Hanhai Dao League has already started actively preparing for war.
Under Meng Zhang's strict supervision, Taiyi Sect disciples had already begun rigorous practical training.
Menzhong began to work hard to produce various war weapons, including some rare large-scale magic weapons and combination magic weapons.
In order to rush on time, some less important parts were subcontracted by Taiyi Sect to some weapon refining sects within the Hanhai Dao League, as well as some surrounding weapon refining sects.
Many carefully selected elite disciples of the Taiyi Sect began to practice large-scale war formations.
Large war arrays can not only be used on large-scale frontal battlefields, but the combined power of the arrays can also contain high-level monks.
For example, the formation that Taiyi Sect is preparing is presided over by Jin Dan Zhenren, with the foundation-building monks as the backbone. When the magic circle is operating at full strength, it can even harm monks in the Yuan Shen stage.
If the Dali Dynasty and the Jiuqu Alliance went to full-scale war, the outcome of the war would definitely not only depend on the top monks on both sides.
If the low-level monks are of no use at all, then both sides can just let the True Monarch of Yuanshen come out and beat them to death. What other low-level monks are needed?
If low-level monks want to compete with high-level monks, they need to rely on formations, use magic weapons, etc.
The current Taiyi Sect has many classics inherited from the Taiyi Sect in its heyday, plus the personal supervision of several Dharma Protector Generals. After years of practice, I feel more or less confident in this aspect.
Meng Zhangdu took the stage in person and tested the training results of his disciples.
As long as they set up the magic circle, they are not without resistance when facing the Yuanshen monks.
Meng Zhang's several tentative attacks were easily resolved by them, and they were able to counterattack from time to time.
Meng Zhang could not completely ignore their counterattack.
With such results, Meng Zhang couldn't ask for more.
Time flies so fast, half a year has passed in a flash. The day Xu Mengying expected to ambush True Monarch Yue Feng came quietly.
Early that morning, Xu Mengying led Meng Zhang and flew high into the sky, directly into the Jiutian area.
Jiutian is a special area with many levels.
Ordinary late-stage Jindan monks only dare to operate in the outer areas.
Meng Zhang's time to achieve Yuan Shen was still short, and he only came to Jiutian only a few times.
Every time I go in and out quickly, collect the essence of the nine days and leave.
He is really not very familiar with the deeper areas of Jiutian.
Xu Mengying's time to achieve Yuanshen was shorter than Meng Zhang's. With the accumulation of the Yellow Lotus Sect's past primordial gods, she does not need to enter Jiutian personally to collect the essence of Jiutian.
When she first entered the Jiutian area, she still felt a little unfamiliar with the surroundings.
Soon, she took out a palm-sized compass, and after a while of gestures, she found a direction and flew away.
Meng Zhang's spiritual sense did not give any warning, and he did not detect any danger.
He followed Xu Mengying and flew in the same direction.
When you reach the realm of True Lord Yuanshen, as long as you don't intentionally seek death or go to some too dangerous areas. Within nine days, not to mention entering an uninhabited land, at least you can avoid most dangers and ensure your own life safety.
Xu Mengying followed the guidance of the compass in her hand and walked around and around.
Sometimes, if you are unlucky enough to encounter a powerful cloud beast, a big battle is inevitable.
Fortunately, the two of them are very powerful. After joining forces, they can advance and retreat freely as long as they don't encounter an overly powerful group of cloud beasts.
After killing two cloud beasts with Yuan Shen strength in a row, and also killing several large groups of cloud beasts, the two finally reached their destination.
Within nine days, the space was in chaos, with no clear distinction between up, down, left and right.
If a cultivator has not cultivated special eye skills, hearing powers, etc., most of the time, he or she will rely solely on spiritual thoughts to determine the direction and guide the way forward.
The place Xu Mengying led Meng Zhang to was a rather special space.
Pieces of dark clouds rolled endlessly in front of them, like a large boiling lake.
Before he got too close, warning signs arose in Meng Zhang's heart, and he became increasingly wary.
"Ahead is the Black Evil Lake, which is condensed from a special evil spirit."
"This kind of evil spirit has a strong pollution effect on the soul. Even the soul of the soul cannot go deep into the lake for too long."
"About every five years or so, the evil spirit in the Black Evil Lake will weaken. At this time, if sufficient preparations are made in advance, the monks in the Yuan Shen stage can go deep into the lake."
Xu Mengying explained in a low voice for Meng Zhang.
"Since almost a century ago, whenever this time comes, Yue Feng will put aside all his affairs and come to this place."
Seeing Meng Zhang's interest, Xu Mengying continued to explain to him.
"Deep at the bottom of the lake, there is a treasure left by a senior monk. Beyond the treasure, there is a powerful evil beast guarding it."
"Yue Feng, this guy, never trusts others, and he is even less willing to share this treasure with others. With his own strength, he is defeated by the evil beast every time and returns in vain."
"He is determined to win this treasure and will never give up easily. Even if he is defeated repeatedly, he will still come to seize the treasure."
"We secretly hide aside and wait for this guy Yue Feng to fight with the evil beast. Then we suddenly attack him. We are very sure that we can completely keep him behind."
Xu Mengying explained her arrangements in just a few words.
As for the origin of this treasure, how did True Lord Yue Feng know this place? Why was he determined to obtain this treasure? How did Xu Mengying know this secret and be able to predict True Lord Yue Feng's actions and set up an ambush here in advance?
Xu Mengying didn't even mention this series of questions. Meng Zhang hesitated for a moment, but still didn't ask any more questions.
In the world of cultivation, almost everyone has their own secrets. There are some secrets that you absolutely don’t want outsiders to know.
Although Meng Zhang was curious, he couldn't talk too much or even ask the other party just because of his curiosity.
Meng Zhang respects Xu Mengying and her secret. As long as there is no problem with this ambush and her secret will not harm him, Meng Zhang will have her go.
Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying are allies now, and they will take care of each other a lot in the future. Meng Zhang did not want things that had nothing to do with him to affect the relationship between the two.
Seeing that Meng Zhang didn't get to the bottom of things and seemed to follow his own arrangements, Xu Mengying finally felt relieved.
There are some things that now is not the time to tell Meng Zhang. Some secrets she may never reveal.
According to Xu Mengying, the changes in Heisha Lake will occur in five days. True Lord Yue Feng probably arrived at that time.
They need to hide aside and spend these five days in secret.
Meng Zhang still had some patience, and it was not difficult to wait for five days.
Xu Mengying found a hidden place nearby and took Meng Zhang over.
