Under the complicated eyes of everyone, Meng Zhang led the expeditionary army and set off.
Since the water tribe in the upper reaches of the Jiuqu River are now allies, the monsters in the Black Jade Forest will not come out to stop them.
It is already a smooth road from Jiuqu Province to the upper reaches of Jiuqu River.
The main route of Meng Zhang's expeditionary army was to go up the Jiuqu River and directly to the upper reaches of the Jiuqu River.
The flying boat full of secrets filled the sky above the Jiuqu River like dark clouds.
During this expedition, Taiyi Sect not only mobilized many airships and warships, but also dispatched cloud boats as huge as hills to transport troops and supplies.
This expeditionary army, composed entirely of monks, numbered more than 30,000 people. It can be said that most of the elite monks from Jiuqu Province were mobilized.
Such a large army set off, and its momentum shocked everyone in the Shui Tribe who was watching.
After the Mermaid King led some of the aquatic tribes back to the upper reaches of the Jiuqu River, many aquatic tribes were left behind to garrison the newly acquired territory.
Meng Zhang's expedition, which was somewhat of a demonstration, really shocked everyone in the Shui tribe, and they did not dare to have the slightest contempt for the human monks.
From now on, the Shui people who stay here in Jiuqu Province will probably be much more honest.
The expeditionary army moved forward all the way. The road was very smooth and basically encountered no obstacles. There are no blind people who jump out to look for trouble.
On the way along the Jiuqu River, Meng Zhang left some monks at regular intervals to establish temporary strongholds here as military depots for subsequent supplies.
Before the expedition, Meng Zhang once asked the Purple Sun Sect for a batch of supplies to build a long-distance teleportation array.
Ziyang Shengzong, who had always been very generous, became stingy at this time and found some excuses to shirk.
The materials to build a long-distance teleportation circle are rare, and the ability of the Ether Yi Sect would have been impossible to assemble if it hadn't been for the help of Old Man Yinhu.
After so many years of hard collection, the materials collected by Taiyi Sect cannot build too many long-distance teleportation circles.
After building some long-distance teleportation arrays in places such as the Endless Sand Sea, Yaofeng Gobi, and Yuantu Prairie, most of these materials were consumed.
Meng Zhang wants to build several more long-distance teleportation arrays between Daheng Cultivation Realm and Jiuqu Province to facilitate the transportation of people and materials.
The world of Daheng cultivation itself is far wider than the Jiuqu province, and there is a vast middle area between the two.
Only with enough long-distance teleportation circles can we move easily.
However, Ziyang Shengzong actually rejected Meng Zhang's request, which made Meng Zhang see a lot of things.
Xiao Liang had promised on behalf of the Purple Sun Sect that as long as Meng Zhang worked hard to extinguish the demonic disaster, after the demonic disaster subsided, he could occupy the territory of Daheng Cultivation World.
But in fact, Ziyang Shengzong was unwilling to provide materials to build the magic circle, clearly because they did not want Taiyi Sect to have too strong control over the Daheng Cultivation World.
It seems that Xiao Liang's promise is greatly reduced, and it is probably just words that are not fulfilled.
It was the series of actions of Ziyang Holy Sect that made Meng Zhang, who was already wary of Ziyang Holy Sect, become even more cautious.
Since Ziyang Holy Sect does not provide materials, Taiyi Sect will not consume the few construction materials.
Meng Zhang can only have a little more trouble and establish more strongholds.
Anyway, he has recruited monks from various cultivating forces in Jiuqu Province, so he still has plenty of manpower.
It took less than a month for the expeditionary army led by Meng Zhang to reach the upper reaches of the Jiuqu River.
When Meng Zhang led the expeditionary army to appear nearby, the Mermaid King who was originally sitting in the Shui Tribe Palace came out to watch in person.
He knew that Meng Zhang was deliberately demonstrating and using powerful troops to frighten the entire Shui Tribe.
Knowing Meng Zhang's intention, the Mermaid King had no good solution.
He just warned Meng Zhang a few words, not allowing him to get too close to the Shui Tribe's palace.
Meng Zhang did not completely listen to the words of the Mermaid King, but led the army to press forward step by step. He did not stop advancing until he reached the Mermaid King's psychological bottom line.
More than three hundred miles away from the Palace of the Water Tribe, airships began to land rapidly, depositing countless monks and a large amount of supplies.
This area is the area with the most abundant water in the Jiuqu River, and the river is hundreds of miles wide at its widest.
In addition to establishing a base on the shore, Meng Zhang also ordered the requisition of several islands and reefs in the river to build strongholds.
The human race is powerful, and the water tribe can only endure silently and give up the islands and reefs originally occupied by the water tribe.
The cultivators moved very quickly and quickly built the base and settled the army.
According to the previous coordination results of the Ziyang Holy Sect, the army of monks led by Meng Zhang was the main force in this battle to quell the demonic disaster.
The monsters from the Water Tribe and the Black Jade Forest were all helping.
Especially in the Black Jade Forest, the Purple Sun Sect cannot directly control the monsters inside and must go through the Gray Peng King.
Although the Gray Peng King is the commander of the black jade forest monsters, there is still a Golden Monkey King among the monsters who can compete with him.
It would be difficult for the Gray Peng King to directly issue an order that would obviously harm the interests of the Black Jade Forest.
The previous betrayal of the extraterritorial monster clan in Yunwu Daze can also be attributed to the conflict between the local monsters and the extraterritorial monster clan. The Gray Peng King has indeed occupied a new territory in Jiuqu Province, which can be regarded as the Black Jade Forest. The monster left a way out.
Now he joins forces with the Water Tribe to help the army of human monks quell the demonic disaster, and can also gain support from some high-level monsters with long-term vision.
However, in this process, the interests of the Black Jade Forest must be ensured as much as possible.
Moreover, the hostility of the black jade forest monsters towards humans and water tribes will not disappear.
When King Gray Peng met with Meng Zhang, he clearly told Meng Zhang that the help he could provide was limited, and the real main force in the battle still depended on the human monks.
Now Meng Zhang has led an army of monks to reach Daheng Cultivation Realm.
While preparing for a long-term war, he contacted two unreliable allies.
The Mermaid King very much hopes to quell the demonic disaster as soon as possible, but he is unwilling to compromise the power of the aquatic tribe too much.
He told Meng Zhang very clearly that if the water tribe leaves the water and goes to land, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, the water tribe army he sent would only fight near the waters and would not go deep into the land.
When you, an old guy, grabbed the territory, you didn't care at all that your combat effectiveness would be compromised, but you occupied a lot of land in Jiuqu Province. Meng Zhang cursed in his heart.
Of course, the Mermaid King is willing to help, and everyone works together to fight together. Although there are many restrictions, it is always a good thing.
On the other hand, the Gray Peng King expressed embarrassment that because of the enmity between the black jade forest monster and the human monk, the two sides could not fight together on the battlefield.
