Because of Meng Zhang's efforts, a line of defense in the area near Taiyi Gate temporarily drove away the intruders and restored peace.
The monks from Taiyi Sect and other sects were busy dealing with the aftermath, treating the wounded and cleaning up the battlefield. In order to prevent the enemy from coming back, it is necessary to repair the magic circle in time and restore the protective power.
After a simple inventory, it was found that the monks of Taiyi Sect and Hanhai Dao Alliance suffered heavy losses, with numerous casualties.
The only consolation is that the casualties are mainly low-level monks. There were many injuries among the Jindan level monks, but none of them died on the spot.
After Meng Zhang knew the result, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as the Jindan monks did not suffer serious losses, it would take up to several decades for the Taiyi Sect to slowly recover and make up for the losses.
There was a temporary truce around Taiyi Gate, but the fighting was still fierce in other places.
Overall, the Dali Dynasty still had the upper hand.
Many places on the long defense line were breached by the army of the Dali Dynasty. All the sects and families stationed on the defensive line were either killed in the battle, or their losses were too great and they were unable to hold on and had to retreat to the rear.
Except for a small number of troops to pursue the remnants of the enemy, most of the troops from the Dali Dynasty gathered towards the center, where the Huanglian Sect's main altar was located, with their hands free.
Meng Zhang randomly found a small peak, flew to it, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate and adjust his breathing, slowly regaining the strength he had just lost.
It's not time to relax yet, the army of the Dali Dynasty may come back at any time. Meng Zhang must return to his best condition as soon as possible to face the next wave of attacks.
Meng Zhang did not continue to assist the more distant friendly forces, not out of the mentality of everyone sweeping away the snow in front of them and not caring about the frost on other people's roofs.
He's not that narrow-minded, and he's not the kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation.
However, he is the leader of Taiyi Sect first, and he must first ensure the safety of Taiyi Sect disciples.
In the battle just now, Taiyi Sect and Hanhai Dao Alliance suffered very heavy casualties. He didn't want to involve them in the next big war.
What if he goes to help the surrounding areas and attracts more powerful enemies?
What if he leaves here and the enemy takes the opportunity to attack the Taiyi Gate defense line?
More importantly, Meng Zhang knew very well.
The real key to determining this battle is not on the Taiyi Sect's defense line, nor anywhere else, but on the Huanglian Sect General Altar.
That is the main battlefield, where the most powerful and elite forces from both sides are concentrated.
The outcome is the key to determining the final outcome of this battle.
Maybe it's to appease people, maybe it's to keep abreast of the specific situation of the entire defense line. Before the war started, the Jade Sword Sect monks stationed at the Huanglian Sect's main altar regularly communicated with their own forces stationed at various defense lines through various communication talismans.
According to the requirements of the Jade Sword Sect, the major sects and major families stationed at each section of the defense line must also regularly send communication talismans to the Huanglian Sect General Forum to report their real-time situations.
After the war started, what the Jade Sword Sect received the most were messages asking for help.
Facing the crazy attack of the Dali Dynasty, the messenger talismans requesting for reinforcements were like snowflakes, flying in the direction of the Yellow Lotus Sect's main altar.
To be honest, it's nice to be able to send out a distress message. That at least proves that the defense line has not fallen yet and is still resisting.
If there is no distress message, the consequences can be imagined.
It's not that the Jade Sword Sect doesn't want to provide support, but the Huanglian Sect's main altar also suffered a strong attack, which contained all the strength of the Jade Sword Sect.
The Jade Sword Sect is struggling to hold on, and is in danger of overturning at any time. Where is there any spare power to rescue other places?
By the end of the day, the Jade Sword Sect monks had become numb and were too lazy to read the messages asking for help.
However, the communication talismans sent from the Huanglian Sect General Forum were intermittent and never completely interrupted.
Especially after the reinforcements from the Daheng Cultivation World arrived, in order to boost morale and call on everyone to persevere, the Jade Sword Sect monks sent out a large number of messengers announcing the arrival of the reinforcements.
Meng Zhang understood this very early on that children who cry can be fed by milk.
Not long after the war started, the Dali Dynasty began to attack the defense line stationed by Taiyi Sect. Those disciples who had received Meng Zhang's instructions in advance kept sending messages for help in the direction of the Huanglian Sect's main altar.
As for the Taiyi Sect, they thought that the Jade Sword Sect would provide some support. But he didn't expect that the situation at the Jade Sword Gate was so bad that he had no time to take care of himself.
After the Taiyi Sect defeated the army of the Dali Dynasty, they naturally would not send the true battle situation to the Jade Sword Sect.
In fact, not only the Taiyi Sect, but also all the cultivation forces that had temporarily repelled the army of the Dali Dynasty began to act stupid at this time and would not report the true battle situation to the Jade Sword Sect.
People are selfish, no matter what, you should always take care of yourself first.
Especially after receiving the communication talisman from the Jade Sword Sect and knowing the arrival of reinforcements from the Daheng Cultivation World, the few cultivators who had repelled the army of the Dali Dynasty were even more unwilling to work hard.
At this time, even Meng Zhang comforted himself. I have done enough, and Taiyi Sect has also paid a lot. At this time, let others fight for life and death.
Now that there are reinforcements from the Daheng cultivation world, we should not show off our little strength.
If people are of the same mind, everyone will preserve their strength at this time.
Of course, on the Jiuqu League side, there are not a few cultivation forces that can truly repel the army of the Great Li Dynasty. Whether or not they participate in the war will actually have little impact on the overall situation.
On the side of the Dali Dynasty, the military formation that had broken through the enemy's defense line was quickly gathering towards the Yellow Lotus Sect's main altar to provide reinforcements for their colleagues there.
The Dali Dynasty has always had absolute air superiority.
Unless the Jiuqu Alliance can deploy a team of Yuanshen monks specifically to deal with the Feizhou team from the Great Li Dynasty. Otherwise, the flying boat team of the Dali Dynasty would be irresistible.
With the help of the Feizhou team, the Dali Dynasty quickly concentrated its forces and continuously provided support to the main battlefield.
Needless to say about the Jiuqu Alliance, without the True Monarch of Yuanshen to spare their hands, they would naturally be unable to do anything to the enemy's flying boat team.
As reinforcements, the Daheng Cultivation World monks had a large number of flying boats, but they were basically carrying flying boats. Their combat effectiveness was limited and they were unable to confront the flying boat team of the Dali Dynasty head-on.
In fact, the Bairi Valley monk in charge had already ordered his own flying boat team to stay away from the battlefield immediately after completing the transfer mission to avoid unnecessary losses.
Although there is no cover from the flying boat overhead, there are a lot of Jindan Masters and even Yuanshen Masters under the command of Bairi Gu. The flying boat team of the Great Li Dynasty did not dare to fly over directly and conduct a large-scale bombardment.
