Shangguan Hui and Shangguan Tu, as the ancestors of the Shangguan family, have the highest control over the family's fourth-level protective formation.
At the beginning, they were caught off guard by Meng Zhang and others, and did not have time to fully activate the power of the protective formation.
It had been so long since the battle began. Even though they were under siege, they still found their minds and slowly began to activate more functions of the formation, allowing the formation to exert greater power.
In this way, the two people who were almost unable to hold on, relied on the help of the large formation to have a chance to breathe, and with strong support, they were able to hold on for a while longer.
Meng Zhang knew that he was now racing against time.
If we wait until the fourth-level protective formation is fully activated and its full power is unleashed, our side will be in big trouble.
A fourth-level protective formation controlled by True Lord Yuanshen can withstand the siege of many True Lords Yuanshen.
By then, even if the enemy fails to turn defeat into victory, Meng Zhang and the others will have to pay a higher price if they want to win.
It is necessary to break through the fourth-level protective formation before it is fully powerful. This is the key to today's battle.
Meng Zhang understood this, so he controlled the two Yin and Yang Dao soldiers to destroy the formation with all their strength.
As an expert in formation formation, Wen Qiansuan understands the power of the fourth-level protective formation.
He exerted all his strength outside the formation and tried hard to break the formation.
The fighting inside and outside the formation was extremely fierce.
Meng Zhang had planned this operation for a long time and absolutely could not allow any mistakes.
If the Shangguan family escapes this time, there will be no such good opportunities in the future.
For many years, Meng Zhang had not been so fiercely involved in a battle.
In the last battle on the Yuantu Prairie, he mainly stayed within the Huangquan Zhensha Formation, relying on the power of the magic circle, leaving little room for his own performance.
In today's battle, he faced the two veteran Yuanshen Lords of the Shangguan family. It could be said that he was fully firing and using all his trump cards.
When the Shangguan family was fighting, in a wilderness more than two thousand miles away, Jin Li Zhenjun also fought with his opponent.
True Lord Wukai of Wurift Valley has no intention of letting everyone go this time.
On the contrary, he left early, left Riftless Valley, and went to Pingding Lake to attend the party.
But as soon as he reached halfway, he was intercepted by Zhenjun Jin Li.
In front of True Lord Wukai, True Lord Jinli is just a junior.
Jin Li Zhenjun said it nicely, saying that he was asking for advice from his seniors.
In fact, her mission is to intercept Zhenjun Wukai and prevent him from going to the Shangguan family.
Meng Zhang knows all the members in the minor league well.
Under the pressure of the situation, True Lord Changchun and True Lord Jiqiao will be pulled on board by him.
Even if True Lord Huolie is unwilling to help him deal with the Shangguan family, at least he will not help the Shangguan family in return.
The most you can do is remain neutral and watch the show from the sidelines.
Meng Zhang didn't trust Zhenjun Wukai at all.
This was not just because Lord Wukai played a trick on him last time. He clearly promised to send troops to Yuantu Prairie, but when it came time to send troops, he did not move.
Ever since he met Zhenjun Wukai, Meng Zhang had always been unable to see through this person.
I always felt that there were many secrets beneath his seemingly kind face.
Meng Zhang didn't dare to bet that True Lord Wukai would definitely side with him.
Therefore, before the war started, he sent True Lord Jin Li and Jin Qiaoer to block True Lord Wukai from reaching the Shangguan family.
Jin Li Zhenjun is also a very competitive person.
She was originally Meng Zhang's senior and had taken care of Meng Zhang many times.
When Meng Zhang was still a Jindan Zhenren, she became a Yuanshen and became famous far and wide.
Meng Zhang came from behind and gradually surpassed her in cultivation.
She didn't say it on the surface, but she was actually holding back a lot of energy in her heart.
This time, Meng Zhang originally asked her to join forces with her apprentice Jin Qiaoer to block the True Lord Wukai.
However, True Monarch Jin Li was so arrogant that she actually abandoned her own disciples and tried to stop her opponent on her own.
In her opinion, even if she is not a match for Wukai Zhenjun, it shouldn't be difficult to block him for a period of time.
After the two sides started fighting, Jin Li Zhenjun not only sacrificed his favorite magic weapon Huangsha Wanli Tu early, but also used his best thunder method.
Not only is the level of cultivation of True Lord Wu Huai higher than that of True Lord Jinli, but his combat power is also much stronger.
Whether it is his attainments on the great avenues of heaven and earth or the divine passage techniques he performs, they are all extraordinary.
Soon after the two sides fought, Zhenjun Jinli fell into a disadvantage.
Fortunately, Jin Qiaoer was not left too far behind by True Lord Jin Li, and she caught up in time.
Seeing that her master was at a disadvantage, she took action without hesitation and directly joined the battle.
The newly promoted Yuanshen is also a Yuanshen, not to mention that the master and apprentice are almost spiritually connected and have an incomparable tacit understanding, so they can learn from each other's strengths and offset their weaknesses.
The two of them joined forces and fought fiercely with the True Lord Wukai.
Facing the two masters and disciples of True Lord Jinli, True Lord Wukai was no longer as at ease as before.
Although he was not at a disadvantage, he could not easily escape from the battle.
True Lord Wu Huai was stopped halfway by the master and apprentice of True Lord Jin Li, which was considered to be the biggest variable in this battle.
On the Pingding Lake at Shangguan Family Mountain Gate, the fierce battle continued.
Wen Qiansuan is truly worthy of being the first formation master of the Taiyi Sect. In fact, there may not be a more powerful formation master than him in the entire Jiuqu Province, and even in the surrounding areas, including the Hengjue Mountains and other places. .
He lived up to Meng Zhang's expectations and finally found a flaw in the fourth-level protective formation before it was fully activated.
Thunderballs were thrown out by Wen Qiansuan and fell directly into the formation.
This is the Yang Lei that Meng Zhang spent a lot of money to buy in the Heavenly Palace.
After each Yang Lei explodes, its power is equivalent to a full blow from a monk in the middle stage of Yuanshen.
Even Jin Li Zhenjun from Taiyi Sect, who is skilled in thunder magic, currently does not have the ability to refine such a thunder ball.
Five loud bangs sounded one after another, and the center of the fourth-level protective formation was immediately destroyed.
The center of the formation was destroyed, causing a series of chain reactions.
The Shangguan family monks who were maintaining the formation felt as if they were struck by lightning, vomiting blood and fell to the ground.
Continuous explosion sounds were heard from various places in the formation, that is, at the Shangguan Family Mountain Gate.
The fourth-level protective formation was destroyed, and the Shangguan family lost its biggest trump card. Even if they still have a lot of foundation, they can't stop several True Lords of Yuanshen.
After breaking through the formation, Wen Qian respected his status and did not go after the Shangguan family monks directly. He only went in to search the Shangguan family's treasury.
The two Yin Yang Tao soldiers had no such scruples.
Under Meng Zhang's command, they started killing the surrounding Shangguan family monks.
Against the Shangguan family monks with Yuan Shen level strength, they are like a tiger swarming into a pack of wolves, killing at will.
Shangguan Hui and Shangguan Tu, the two true masters of the soul, saw that the fourth-level protective formation was broken and knew that the situation was over. They had no fighting spirit in their hearts and only thought about how to escape.
As soon as their momentum weakened, their flaws were revealed.
In the end, Lord Shangguan Hui was stabbed to death by Meng Zhang with a spiritual snake spear.
Shangguan Tuzhenjun was shot dead on the spot by Xu Mengying.
The death of the two True Lords of Yuanshen meant that the Shangguan family was completely finished.
When the formation was broken, several elderly Jindan masters from the Shangguan family, along with a group of clan members, prepared to escape from the mountain gate.
They had just left the mountain gate and before they could escape from here, they ran into the combined forces of Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect.
In order to hide their whereabouts, the coalition forces of Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect had not approached Pingding Lake before.
The coalition of monks from the two sects took a flying boat and stood by far away from Pingding Lake.
They waited until the fourth-level protective formation was broken and received Wen Qiansuan's message before they hurried over to kill them.
The airships they ride on are all third-level airships known for their speed, or simply third-level warships.
The speed of the flying boat team was very fast, and they appeared outside the Shangguan family's mountain gate almost in an instant.
One after another, flying boats surrounded the Shangguan family's mountain gate.
A monk flew out from the flying boat and chased and intercepted the Shangguan family monks who escaped.
There were also many monks who rushed directly into the mountain gate of the Shangguan family and went on a killing spree inside, killing the enemies wantonly.
After the two Shangguan family True Lords of Yuanshen were killed, several True Lords of Yuanshen respected their status and did not join in the pursuit of the Shangguan family members.
However, with the help of two Yin-Yang Dao soldiers who were in the early stage of Yuanshen, the combined forces of Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect were as powerful as a rainbow. Against the monks of the Shangguan family who were like bereaved dogs, there was no suspense about the outcome.
Plow the courtyard and sweep holes, hunt down the remaining enemies, clean up the battlefield, and search for loot...
The disciples of Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect will naturally handle these matters, leaving Meng Zhang free for the time being.
He called several True Lords of Yuanshen together and explained them to everyone.
Just now, Meng Zhang took advantage of the situation and pulled everyone on board.
In the matter of annihilating the Shangguan family, everyone is an accomplice, and no one can stay out of it.
Although Meng Zhang achieved his goal, he still had to comfort everyone to avoid leaving knots in their hearts.
The Shangguan family has perished and things are irreversible, but this small alliance must still be preserved as much as possible.
Meng Zhang knew in his heart that the more strength he had at hand, the stronger his ability to deal with changes in the future.
Now that the Shangguan family has been wiped out, Wurift Valley has also been kicked out of the minor league by Meng Zhang.
For the remaining sects, everyone should be closer and more united.
Meng Zhang was eloquent and spoke out all the shortcomings of the Shangguan family.
The Shangguan family went behind everyone's back to collude with the Ziyang Holy Sect without even saying hello to everyone in advance.
This matter has been known to Zhang Weineng, and Zhang Weineng has already responded.
Several sects belong to the same small alliance, and everyone has frequent contacts with Shangguan Hui and the others.
If Zhang Wei could regard everyone as an accomplice of the Shangguan family, the consequences would be disastrous.
In order to prove his innocence and help everyone get rid of the suspicion of colluding with the Shangguan family, Meng Zhang had to take action.
At least on the surface, Zhang Weineng now controls the most powerful force in Jiuqu Province.
The sects that everyone here belongs to are absolutely unable to compete with it.
The Dali Dynasty's method of dealing with traitors has always been extremely cruel.
Everyone may not be loyal to the Dali Dynasty, but they absolutely do not want to be regarded as traitors by the Dali Dynasty and be harshly dealt with.
At the thought of being implicated by the Shangguan family, everyone began to feel that the Shangguan family deserved their death.
It is a tradition in the world of cultivation that a dead Taoist friend should not die but a poor Taoist. It is better to annihilate the Shangguan family than to annihilate one's own family.
Especially the two people, True Lord Changchun and True Lord Jiqiao, are now able to gain a foothold in the Heavenly Palace, all thanks to Niu Dawei's help.
In a sense, Niu Dawei is their employer.
Even if they had other ideas in mind, they would not refute Meng Zhang face to face.
As for True Lord Huolie, he remained silent from beginning to end.
To achieve this level, Meng Zhang also tried his best.
In order to maintain this minor league, he spent a lot of effort.
As long as everyone can keep a decent face and the alliance can continue to maintain, he will be reluctantly satisfied.
After the conversation, everyone left one after another.
They don't want the spoils of the Shangguan family's demise this time, they just want to leave here as soon as possible.
No matter how nice Meng Zhang said it, today Meng Zhang forcibly wiped out the Shangguan family, which still left everyone with lingering fears.
They need to think more about how to get along with Taiyi Sect in the future.
Meng Zhang watched the three people leave and looked at Xu Mengying who stayed behind.
This time Xu Mengying sided with Meng Zhang and took the greatest credit for the destruction of the Shangguan family.
Next, when it comes to disposing of the spoils of war, we need to take more care of the interests of the Huanglian Sect.
As an old Yuanshen family, the Shangguan family has rich savings and many treasures.
All loot needs to be counted and distributed between the two families.
The territory of the Shangguan family is not large, but it is a rare sacred land in Jiuqu Province.
In the entire northern Jiuqu League, it is difficult to find a richer place than around Pingding Lake.
Not to mention anything else, just a Pingding Lake can be used as the foundation of a Yuanshen Sect.
Although they are allies, when it comes to the distribution of spoils, Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect have to fight for a while.
Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying did not participate in these chores.
Firstly, I don't want to waste time on these things.
Secondly, no matter how fiercely the people below fight, it will not affect their friendship.
If they directly participate in bargaining, they will not only lose their status, but may also ruin their friendship.
No matter how good a relationship is, it requires careful maintenance by both parties.
On the other side, Master Jin Li and Master Jin Qiaoer tightly entangled Master Wukai, making it impossible for him to escape easily.
Even after being informed by Meng Zhang and knowing that the war on the Shangguan family side was over, both their master and disciple were still very interested in continuing to fight against Zhenjun Wukai.
The battle lasted for several days, and it was not until Zhenjun Wukai received the message from the door that he realized that the Shangguan family had been destroyed, and understood Zhenjun Jinli and their intentions.
Now that the Shangguan family has been wiped out, no matter what attitude he has on this matter, it is no longer important.
There is no point in continuing to fight.
In the end, Wu Huai Zhenjun took the initiative to retreat after sustaining some minor injuries, and finally got out of the battle.
After leaving the battle, he left the two opponents behind and left the battlefield as quickly as possible, avoiding them far away.
