Since the last time Meng Zhang saw Xiao Jiansheng, the leader of the Purple Sun Sect, he thought he was on the line of the Purple Sun Sect, leaving a way out for the Taiyi Sect.
Of course, as long as the Dali Dynasty is not defeated, he will still be a loyal minister of the Dali Dynasty.
After refusing Zhang Weineng's order last time and not joining him in attacking the extraterritorial invaders. Meng Zhang is also determined to make up for the gaps that may arise in the relationship between the two parties.
Meng Zhang took the initiative to provide Zhang Weineng with a sum of cultivation resources under the guise of serving the imperial court.
At the same time, Meng Zhang also ordered the monks in his sect to try to increase their contacts with cultivators in the south of Jiuqu Province.
Zhang Weineng welcomed Meng Zhang's move to ease relations between the two parties.
He smiled and accepted Meng Zhang's cultivation resources, and also ordered his cultivators to strengthen their contacts with the north of the Jiuqu Alliance.
After the efforts of both parties, at least on the surface, there is a picture of happiness and unity.
After Meng Zhang returned to Taiyimen Mountain Gate from the Daheng Cultivation World, although he did not publicize it widely and only revealed it on some occasions, the news that he had become a great monk in the late Yuanshen period still spread like wildfire and soon spread throughout the world. The entire Jiuqu Province.
Others can just pay it back, but these cultivation forces in the north of Jiuqu Province cannot turn a blind eye.
Xu Mengying from the Huanglian Sect, Changchun True Monarch from Changchun Temple and other familiar Yuanshen True Monarchs all came to visit one after another.
Meng Zhang had previously wiped out the barbarians outside the territory on the Yuantu Prairie, but they all knew what was going on and didn't come to disturb him.
Now that Meng Zhang had accomplished his goal and returned to the mountain gate, he had not had a quiet two days before he received visitors one after another.
Later, even Jiuqu traveled to the south and monks who knew Meng Zhang, such as Zhenjun Xuanfeng, came to visit him.
This isn't exactly a sign of following others' influence, it's just an expression of goodwill and a way to build relationships.
The other monks have just paid it back. Now those who are qualified to take the initiative to visit are all True Lord Yuanshen of the same level.
Even if Meng Zhang is now a great monk, he can't stand up to them and can only receive these people one by one.
This group of people visited Meng Zhang, which meant congratulating him a few times and building a relationship.
It's hard to say that he took refuge in Meng Zhang because of this.
Among the Yuan Shen monks, those in the early stage of Yuan Shen and even those in the middle stage of Yuan Shen are not that rare.
But there are only three great monks in the late Yuan Shen period in the entire Jiuqu Province.
Meng Zhang also has a huge force under his command. To a certain extent, he already has the strength to compete with Zhang Weineng.
Many senior officials in the Taiyi Sect suggested to Meng Zhang that it would be best to hold a celebration ceremony and invite guests from all over to celebrate Meng Zhang's advancement to the late stage of Yuan Shen.
In this way, the prestige of the Taiyi Sect can be greatly increased, and Meng Zhang can take this opportunity to establish his authority.
Meng Zhang thought for a moment and then rejected the proposal.
In addition to finding it troublesome, he was unwilling to stimulate Governor Zhang Wei's sensitive nerves at this time.
In addition, Meng Zhang's second disciple An Xiaoran had no intention of holding a soul ceremony after consolidating his cultivation.
In addition to her daily practice, she also spent a lot of energy on refining elixirs and improving her alchemy skills.
Meng Zhang wasted a lot of time in receiving guests from all over the world, and soon the number of guests gradually decreased.
In Jiuqu Province, there are only a few monks who are qualified to visit Meng Zhang and let Meng Zhang take the initiative to receive him.
People like Zhenjun Shanghan from the Datong Merchant Alliance, who have this qualification, would not be interested in seeing Meng Zhang's proud expression.
Meng Zhang became a great monk in the later stage of Yuanshen. Sects close to him, such as Huanglian Sect and Jiqiao Sect, were greatly encouraged, and they even strengthened their cooperation with Taiyi Sect.
An Xiaoran successfully advanced to the fourth level of alchemy master in less than ten years after breaking through the Yuan Shen stage.
An Xiaoran has not only been the best alchemist in his sect for a long time, but he has also trained many outstanding alchemists of the younger generation.
Meng Zhang called his eldest disciple Niu Dawei back from Tiangong and asked An Xiaoran to go to Tiangong to take charge.
The Heavenly Palace is relatively peaceful and has more channels to obtain various resources, including elixir prescriptions and alchemy materials.
After An Xiaoran went to Tiangong, he not only had a stable environment to continue to consolidate his cultivation, but also had a better opportunity to continue to improve his alchemy skills.
Over the years, due to Niu Dawei's efforts, Taiyi Sect's various business activities in Tiangong have been on the right track, without spending too much time and energy to deal with them.
For example, Taiyimen opened a small shop outside the small courtyard where the sect is located.
The daily management of the store was handed over to the puppet purchased from Tiangong.
Taiyi Sect sells various resources and purchases various items, and has relatively fixed customers, which makes it much more convenient.
The low-level monks from the organization sect went to the Heavenly Palace to complete the tasks of returning to the void.
After becoming familiar with various processes, except for a few handovers, the stationed monks did not need to keep an eye on them at all.
Moreover, in many cases, the monks stationed in the Tiangong of Taiyi Sect and Huanglian Sect will also assist each other and share some work with each other.
An Xiaoran went to the Heavenly Palace. Under Niu Dawei's careful guidance, he quickly became familiar with everything here and took over all Niu Dawei's work.
Niu Dawei spent some time and completed the handover with An Xiaoran before returning to Baicao Slope of Taiyimen Mountain Gate.
In these years, in addition to staying in the Heavenly Palace, Niu Dawei also traveled to and from Taiyi Gate many times.
But every time he returned to Taiyimen Mountain Gate, he was in a hurry and did not stay for too long.
Without Niu Dawei as the eldest disciple to oversee the affairs of the sect, Meng Zhangdu felt it was very inconvenient and had a lot of extra work out of thin air.
Now that Niu Dawei has come back to take charge of the mountain gate, Meng Zhang can relieve a lot of work.
After Niu Dawei returned to the mountain gate, he first came to see Meng Zhang.
In addition to routine greetings, he also reported all his work in the Tiangong to Meng Zhang.
After Meng Zhang listened to Niu Dawei's report, he praised him a few words.
He also took action to test Niu Dawei's cultivation.
The cultivation environment in the Heavenly Palace is very good. No matter how busy he is in these years, Niu Dawei's cultivation level has not slowed down.
Meng Zhang was very satisfied with Niu Dawei's cultivation progress and spent a lot of time giving him careful guidance.
After finishing all this, Meng Zhangcai handed over some of the Taiyi Sect work he was responsible for to Niu Dawei.
With the eldest disciple Niu Dawei sitting in charge of the mountain gate, the daily affairs and ordinary affairs in the gate do not need to disturb Meng Zhang.
Niu Dawei has an overview of everything in the door, and will not disturb Meng Zhang except for important matters.
Except for a few elders, it became increasingly difficult for the rest of the upper echelons of the sect to have the opportunity to meet Meng Zhang.
Meng Zhang raised the threshold for meeting him, not because he was arrogant, but because he did not want to waste time on welcoming and sending people off.
In the future, whether they are guests from outside or senior members of the sect, they will be screened by the eldest disciple Niu Dawei before meeting Meng Zhang.
