Meng Zhang would definitely not sit idly by and ignore this situation.
The current endless sand sea is the territory of Taiyi Sect. How can it be allowed to be destroyed by barbarians from outside the territory.
Fortunately, the endless sand sea is vast enough and desolate enough that in a short period of time, barbarians from outside the territory will not be able to enter areas where humans live.
According to the current marching route and speed of the barbarians from outside the territory, they will not pass through any large oasis for at least half a month.
Meng Zhang still has enough time to consider how to respond.
Meng Zhang's first reaction was to command his army of monks to leave Huangsha Ridge to intercept the barbarian army.
But leaving the long-prepared preset positions and going to the wilds to fight the barbarians outside the territory is to use one's own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points and give up one's own advantages in vain.
If fighting in the wild, if the situation is unfavorable and there is no stronghold to rely on, facing the impact of the barbarian army, it will be difficult to evacuate.
After all, the army of monks under Meng Zhang was not the army of the Dali Dynasty. It was far less disciplined and had a measured advance and retreat.
Meng Zhang summoned the elders of Taiyi Sect above Huangsha Ridge to discuss together.
Almost all the elders tend to take the initiative to intercept the barbarian army outside the territory.
Since the elders all had this opinion, Meng Zhang followed suit.
However, he still maintained a minimum of caution.
He asked God General Houtu to command the army of monks and be ready to set off at any time, and he called Zhenjun Shushan and decided to investigate in person.
The two True Lords of Yuanshen flew very fast. It didn't take much time to fly to a place not far from the barbarian army outside the territory.
The Supreme Sword Divine General and Thunder Divine General, who had been monitoring the movements of the barbarian armies outside the territory, had long received the message from Meng Zhang.
The two of them had been waiting here for a long time. When they saw Meng Zhang and Zhenjun Shushan flying over, they hurriedly greeted them.
After meeting, Meng Zhang went straight to the topic without saying any nonsense, let alone exchanging pleasantries, asking about the situation of the barbarian army outside the territory.
According to the story of the Ji Sword God General, this barbarian army numbered close to ten thousand people. The army was all young and strong from the barbarians. There were no old, weak, sick or disabled people. They should undoubtedly be the elite of the barbarians.
Almost all barbarians have mounts.
In addition to a large number of land mounts, there are also a large number of flying mounts.
Logically speaking, a barbarian with enough mounts should have a higher forward speed.
But starting from the Yuantu Prairie, this barbarian army deliberately slowed down its advance.
Around the barbarian army, teams on flying mounts patrolled, and from time to time there were barbarian generals among them.
Neither the Supreme Sword God General nor the Thunder God General were able to fly too close, and could only detect from a distance.
Neither of them knew much about the details of the barbarian army.
After listening to the report of the Supreme Sword God General, Meng Zhang and Zhenjun Shushan looked at each other.
If the barbarian army with enough mounts attacks at full speed, it will be difficult for the Taiyi Sect monk army to stop them halfway.
They slowed down their progress, so to speak, to be cautious and proceed steadily.
But from another perspective, can it be said that they are not determined enough to fight, so they are deliberately procrastinating? It can even be said that they are afraid of war.
Before seeing the real situation, all ideas are just guesses.
Meng Zhang and Zhenjun Shushan had surprisingly the same idea, and they were both ready to see it for themselves.
Meng Zhang ordered Ji Sword God to leave them here and told them not to approach easily. Then he took Zhenjun Shushan with him and continued to fly forward.
Not far after flying out, a group of barbarian warriors riding huge goshawks flew towards them.
Since the opponent is a barbarian from outside the territory, Meng Zhang and the others do not need to pay attention to the rules of the cultivation world with the opponent.
In the world of cultivation, many people would feel ashamed if True Lord Yuanshen killed a weak cultivator. But if the target of the killing is a barbarian from outside the territory, everyone will think that this is natural.
Meng Zhang casually waved his hand, and the patrolling barbarians and their flying mounts all lost their lives and fell from the air.
As the two of them walked forward, no patrol team they encountered could escape their vicious hands.
There was even a barbarian general who was killed by Meng Zhang because he could not dodge.
The two people's unscrupulous behavior naturally easily alarmed the strong men among the barbarians outside the territory.
Following a thunderous roar, a tall man with a beard, as if he was a giant, rose into the sky and came not far in front of Meng Zhang and Zhenjun Shushan.
"Despicable human cultivators have no glory of being strong. It is too much to bully the small and slaughter the weak."
Meng Zhang couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard the other party's righteous scolding.
This seemingly honest group of extraterrestrial barbarians has done a lot of despicable things, such as killing the weak, but they have never done less of it.
It's just that when his family becomes the target of massacre by others, he looks aggrieved.
"I, King Tule Bear, will twist off your heads today to comfort the tribesmen who died tragically."
Probably irritated by the dismissive attitude of Meng Zhang and the others, the barbarian king who called himself Thule Bear roared and rushed over.
Master Shushan took out a volume of books and took the initiative to greet him without showing any signs of weakness.
Meng Zhang did not besiege the barbarian king with True Lord Shushan, not because he did not want to defeat the minority with more.
Meng Zhang looked higher ahead and said, "Old Cangshan, it's really been a long time since we last met."
Cangshan Zhenjun, who was beaten to death by Meng Zhang and had a relationship with Meng Zhang, descended from a high altitude and landed in the air not far from Meng Zhang.
When Elder Beast Fury introduced the two of them to each other, Meng Zhang instinctively disliked this person because he felt that he was too gloomy.
However, this man's willingness to be a traitor and collude with barbarians from outside the territory still exceeded Meng Zhang's expectations.
Even if there was Dali Dynasty's handwriting involved, what he did was still too much.
"You are a beast. You betrayed fellow Daoist Bai Zhan and caused him to die on the battlefield. You also implicated fellow Daoist Beast Wrath, causing Beast King Mountain to be jealous of the Jade Sword Sect."
"If I had known that you are such a bad person, I should have slapped you to death when we first met, so that you would not be embarrassed when you came out, and would have disgraced all the ancestors of the Cangshan Sect. .”
Being scolded mercilessly by a junior like Meng Zhang made the always scheming True Lord Cangshan feel angry.
He defected to the Dali Dynasty, colluded with barbarians from outside the region, and betrayed his long-standing ally Baizhanmen...
Even within the Cangshan Sect, there are many opponents of these matters.
True Lord Cangshan believed that he had tried every means and suffered a lot of injustice for the sake of the inheritance of his sect, but he was not understood by his disciples.
During this period of time, he followed the barbarian army outside the territory, and he also suffered from a lot of negative feelings brought by the barbarians.
Meng Zhang cursed like this, and all the resentment and anger he had accumulated during this period suddenly came out.
He just shouted angrily, "Young man, die!" before mobilizing the power of the great avenue to attack Meng Zhang.
