Now that Xu Daohai has achieved Yuanshen, Xu Mengying no longer hides and tucks him in, and openly displays him in front of everyone.
However, Xu Daohai is introverted and unwilling to deal with outsiders.
When Xu Mengying received all the True Lords of Yuanshen in the main hall, Xu Daohai did not show up, but stayed alone.
It was Xu Mengying who sent people to urge him several times before he came over to meet everyone.
Xu Daohai is taciturn, and most of the time he is listened to by others.
He is not good at sociability and rarely takes the initiative to speak. He only responds passively when others speak first. When asked directly by others, it is just a few simple hums.
In the world of cultivation, there are many cultivators with weird tempers, and his character is nothing.
Especially as the True Lord of Yuanshen, any quirks will be regarded as personality.
Isn't it normal for the superior True Lord Yuanshen to have a bit of a weird temper?
Meng Zhang didn't say much, but secretly observed Xu Daohai.
This person has a strong foundation and extraordinary bearing. He is obviously not an ordinary person.
As an ally, Meng Zhang is very happy to see the Yellow Lotus Sect's strength increase.
While chatting, someone suddenly suggested that no one would take the initiative to challenge Xu Daohai this time like they did at Taiyimen last time.
Xu Mengying's eyebrows stood up, and she said rudely that if someone really wanted to cause trouble on this happy day, Huang Lianjiao would definitely not show mercy.
Meng Zhang also mentioned lightly that the Thunder Spear Sect acted in the opposite direction, which led to the annihilation of the sect.
Seeing the attitudes of the two people, the person who mentioned this matter just now knew enough to stop talking nonsense.
The Governor's Mansion only sent a Jindan monk as a representative to participate in the Yuan Shen Ceremony this time.
The Huanglian Sect's Primordial Spirit Ceremony went on smoothly, and no one came to cause trouble.
Datong Merchant Alliance and other large foreign merchants have only been taught a lesson and will not be so short-lived.
Among the local cultivation forces in Jiuqu Province, those who actively seek refuge with large foreign merchants are basically some Jindan sects.
With ten of their courage, they would not dare to provoke the Huanglian Sect of the Yuanshen Sect, let alone the tragic fate of the Thunder Spear Sect.
The last part of the Yuanshen Ceremony is Xu Daohai's opening of the altar.
Xu Daohai was poor at words and his speech was not wonderful.
But Meng Zhang can roughly judge from what he said that this person has accumulated a lot of Taoism and has a deep understanding of the great ways of heaven and earth.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to participate in the Yuan Shen Ceremony, the principals of the various forces that Meng Zhang formed in the small alliance rarely came together to gather together in the Huanglian Sect.
Meng Zhang, with the cooperation of Xu Mengying, asked everyone to strengthen contact and cooperation.
Meng Zhang's purpose is to strengthen this alliance and let everyone invest more energy in it.
Over the years, all the cultivation forces in the alliance have gained a lot of benefits from this small alliance.
Although he was still a little instinctively wary of Meng Zhang in his heart, he was worried that Taiyi Sect would take the opportunity to control or annex his own sect. However, no one raised any objection to Meng Zhang's proposal to strengthen cooperation.
Meng Zhang stayed in the Holy Mountain of Huanglian Sect for more than half a month, and after settling all matters, he returned to Taiyi Sect.
Not long after returning to Taiyi Sect, the special magic weapon he refined back then, the Sun and Moon Orb, after so many years of strengthening, was finally about to be upgraded to a fourth-level magic weapon.
In the world of cultivation, only a few sects have the ability to directly refine fourth-level magic weapons.
Most of the fourth-level magic weapons slowly evolved from the third-level magic weapons.
Among the current Taiyi Sect, fourth-level magic weapons are still relatively scarce.
Meng Zhang's main practice at that time was "The Sutra of the Sun and the Moon", and he had a deep understanding of the Great Way of the Sun and the Moon.
If the Sun and Moon Orb advances to the fourth level, it will have a great effect on improving his combat effectiveness.
Meng Zhang temporarily put aside all kinds of affairs and began to retreat.
He slowly released the power of his soul, carefully nourished the sun and moon orbs, and occasionally put in some precious spiritual objects and spiritual materials.
Originally, according to his original plan and the kind reminder from Zhenjun Wen Dong, he should have gone to the mainland of the Dali Dynasty as soon as possible.
However, the events that happened one after another delayed him and made it temporarily impossible for him to make the trip.
Meng Zhang didn't particularly care about this.
As for the longevity of Yuanshen Zhenjun, his concept of time is very different from that of ordinary cultivators.
Delaying it for three to five years is considered as soon as possible. Delaying it for decades or even hundreds of years is not too late.
Meng Zhang spent nearly three years in seclusion, and finally successfully upgraded the Sun and Moon Orb into a fourth-level magic weapon.
Now, Meng Zhang has five fourth-level magical weapons, including the Colorful Ray Robe, Jinghong Sword, Spiritual Snake Spear, Sun and Moon Orb, and Yin-Yang Spiritual Gourd, his natal magical weapon.
For an ordinary mid-stage soul cultivator, refining five fourth-level magic weapons is already an unbearable burden.
Meng Zhang was far stronger than ordinary mid-stage Yuanshen monks, but he still felt the burden was heavy.
On weekdays, he has to consume a lot of energy to nourish these five fourth-level magic weapons.
This has already had some bad effects on his cultivation.
If he continues to refine new fourth-level magic weapons, it will definitely slow down his cultivation speed.
Meng Zhang also secretly decided that it was best not to continue refining the fourth-level magic weapon.
The upgrade of the Sun and Moon Orb to a fourth-level magic weapon not only greatly enhanced the power of the Sun and Moon divine channel technique, but also allowed Meng Zhang to mobilize the power of the Sun and Moon Avenue more freely.
Although it consumes a lot of spiritual power on the magic weapon, compared with the increase in combat power, this consumption is still worth it.
After finishing the retreat, Meng Zhang, who had just come out, was in a very good mood. But a sudden bad news made his mood suddenly become very bad.
When Yang Xueyi participated in the latest mission in the Tiangong, she suffered heavy casualties and lost many Taiyi Sect disciples.
There were five Jindan Zhenren who were lost alone, including Zheng Chao, an old man from the Taiyi Sect.
Even if there are many Jindan cultivators in Taiyi Sect now, just losing five of them all at once would be a huge loss.
Zheng Chao joined the Taiyi Sect when it was still in its infancy and has been fighting for the Taiyi Sect for a long time.
Zheng Chao served as the leader of Taiyi Sect's war hall and was the main force responsible for the sect's external conquests.
However, he was seriously injured in the war and his foundation was damaged. His cultivation level has been stuck at the Golden Core stage, unable to make any progress.
He didn't feel sorry for himself because of this blow, and he didn't feel helpless. Instead, he still maintained a strong fighting spirit and actively participated in battles of all sizes.
As an elder in the sect, he has worked hard and made great achievements. With his many years of contribution, he can rest in peace and contentment in the sect.
Even though he has entered the later years of his life and his life is short, he still actively participates in various tasks.
According to him, he would rather die on the battlefield than die of old age and illness.
