More than three months after Meng Zhang successfully assassinated the Hai Clan's Void Returning Great Master Hai Weili and returned to Taiyi Sect, a transfer order was sent from the Tiangong.
The content of this transfer order is very simple. It is to recruit Meng Zhang to go outside Junchen Realm to fight against the army of foreign invaders.
Meng Zhang was not surprised at this sudden order, nor did he resist at all.
Meng Zhang obediently obeyed the order and went to serve in the army.
Before this transfer order arrived, Banxue Jianjun sent someone to send a message to Meng Zhang, explaining the whole story.
Faced with the pressure from inside and outside Tiangong, Banxue Jianjun had to make compromises in order to take into account the overall situation and maintain the stability of Tiangong.
Finally, Tiangong punished Meng Zhang.
Now all kinds of extraterritorial invaders are invading Junchen Realm in large numbers, and the outside of Junchen Realm is facing great pressure.
At the time of employing people, Meng Zhang, as a Void Returning Power, should be responsible for guarding the Junchen Realm.
He will be sent to the front line to resist foreign invaders and perform meritorious service to atone for his previous sins.
The process of issuing Meng Zhang's punishment was very tortuous.
Banxue Jianjun still needs to be given more or less face. After all, she is the general manager of Tiangong, and is nominally the person with the highest status in the Junchen world. She cannot be forced too much.
You know, Banxue Jianjun has never been a magnanimous person.
She would always seek revenge against those who had sinned against her and those who made her unhappy, and she would never let them go easily.
This time it was because there were too many people who added insult to injury, and they were not directly targeting Ban Xue Jianjun, so many people actively promoted the punishment of Meng Zhang with the idea that the law would not punish the public.
Now that Banxue Jianjun has given in, everyone knows that enough is enough.
If you really piss off Banxue Jianjun and make her cause a scene regardless, no one will be left behind.
Finally, after mutual compromise, the punishment for Meng Zhang was given.
This kind of punishment is neither light nor heavy. Banxue Jianjun should be able to accept it, and everyone can live with it.
Sure enough, Banxue Jianjun didn't say anything about this, so he acquiesced.
Before the order to recruit Meng Zhang was officially issued, Banxue Jianjun sent someone to secretly meet with Meng Zhang.
Ban Xuejian expressed his apology to Meng Zhang through his subordinates.
Banxue Sword Lord once made a promise that after Meng Zhang killed Haiweili, the Void Returning Master of the Sea Clan, she would bear all the consequences.
But now, due to pressure from both inside and outside the Heavenly Palace, Banxue Jianjun had to watch Meng Zhang being punished.
In addition to expressing his verbal apology, Banxue Jianjun also secretly made arrangements to ensure Meng Zhang's safety.
In addition, she also gave Meng Zhang some other compensation.
Now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in blaming Banxue Jianjun.
The most sensible thing to do is to hug Banxue Jianjun's thigh tightly.
Meng Zhang accepted Ban Xue Jianjun's apology and arrangement, and in turn said Ban Xue Jianjun didn't need to pay too much attention to this matter.
After such an incident, the relationship between Meng Zhang and Ban Xue Jianjun has become much closer.
After Meng Zhang received the order of recruitment, he settled all the affairs in the sect and went directly to the Tiangong.
Cultivators often say that the Heavenly Palace is located above the Nine Heavens.
The so-called Jiutian is a special arrangement established by the immortals with the help of the Heavenly Palace after the human race ruled the Junchen Realm.
Jiutian is like a thick layer of dark clouds, completely wrapping up the entire Junchen world.
Internally, Jiutian is an important source of resources.
The large and small resource points inside can provide various precious resources to the Junchen world.
For example, the most precious essence of the Nine Heavens is indispensable for monks in the late stage of Jindan and even in the early stage of Yuanshen.
The cloud beasts born in the Nine Heavens are actually a kind of resource.
The powerful Yuanshen sects in the world of cultivation send their monks to Jiutian to hunt down cloud beasts and explore various natural dangers, which is a kind of test for their disciples.
In addition, there are a few sects in the world of cultivation that can directly tame cloud beasts for their own use.
After years of hard work, Taiyi Sect's Beast Control Hall has already achieved great results in taming cloud beasts.
On the side of Jiutian facing the void, there is a complete set of strict defense systems that can defend against various enemies from outside the Junchen Realm.
The Heavenly Palace located above the Nine Heavens is the core of this defense system.
Enemies from outside the Junchen Realm must first pass through the Jiutian defense system if they want to invade the Junchen Realm.
Of course, the strongest fortresses are always breached from within.
In the history of Junchen Realm, due to the selfishness of certain characters or the deliberate attempts by high-level officials of the human race, intruders from outside the realm often crossed the Nine Heavens and entered the Junchen Realm.
Of course, these extraterritorial invaders who can enter Junchen Realm have all gone through a selection process.
Their strength is not particularly strong. They can cause various disturbances in the Junchen world, but they are far from shaking the foundation of the Junchen world.
Before Ban Xue Jianjun issued the cleaning order, he ordered Jiutian's external defense to be strengthened and no longer allowed any outside intruders to invade Junchen Realm.
When the immortals first preached in the Junchen Realm, before even the Heavenly Palace was established, the Junchen Realm was coveted by various foreign invaders and was attacked many times.
After the human race became the ruler of the Junchen Realm and took complete control of the world, these foreign invaders did not give up and continued to attack many times in an attempt to invade the world.
After the establishment of Tiangong, special attention was paid to the prevention of foreign enemies.
In order to establish the system of Jiutian, which has many functions, the immortals paid a lot.
Tiangong, which represents the Lingkong Immortal Realm and rules the Junchen Realm, has also spent a lot of manpower and material resources on this, and even received support from the Lingkong Immortal Realm.
After nine days of successful construction, it indeed played its intended role.
Jiutian is only the last line of defense outside Junchen Realm. Beyond Jiutian, the human race has also established other lines of defense as front lines of defense.
When the human race in Junchen Realm was the most powerful, a large area of void outside Junchen Realm belonged to Junchen Realm.
Junchen Realm has established many strongholds here and exploits various resources in the void.
However, with the struggle against various extraterrestrial invaders, the void controlled by Junchen Realm has been changing. The various strongholds have changed hands from time to time, and there have been many tug-of-wars on the defense line.
For example, when Meng Zhang was in the Yangshen stage, he was introduced by the old man Yinhu, and when he was serving under Lord Tianlei, the human cultivators in Junchen Realm were able to enter the deeper void and seize resource points.
Now facing the strong pressure from outside invaders, the Junchen Realm humans are either proactive or passive, abandoning many peripheral strongholds, and their defense lines are constantly being compressed.
Of course, within nine days, it is relatively safe for the time being. No intruders from outside the territory have invaded. This place can be used as a rear area.
Outside the Nine Heavens, multiple teams led by the Void Returning Masters, including Lord Tianlei, formed an army of monks and temporarily blocked all the extraterrestrial intruders.
Within nine days, there are still some teams of monks from Junchen Realm who have been stationed here.
First, it serves as a patrol team, patrolling at any time within nine days to prevent infiltration by outside invaders.
Secondly, it serves as a reserve force for the army ahead.
Once the army ahead suffers heavy losses and needs to be replenished, these teams are the first choice.
Or when the front army cannot withstand it, these backup teams are also needed to step up.
Ban Xue Jianjun has been the general manager of Tiangong for many years. Whether it is prestige or power, he is enough to accomplish many things within Tiangong.
Although she had to accept the consequences of Meng Zhang being transferred, she could do some tricks in secret to save Meng Zhang as much as possible and provide convenience for Meng Zhang.
After being drafted, Meng Zhang was not sent to the front line immediately.
Because of Ban Xue Jianjun's arrangement, he was sent to the Jiutian patrol team as a reserve force.
This does not violate the mobilization order. The reserve team is also serving the monk army and protecting Junchen Realm.
Jiutian encompasses almost the entire Junchen Realm and is an extremely vast place.
In addition to the Tiangong as the core, many strongholds have also been established within Jiutian as the fulcrums of Jiutian.
After being recruited, Meng Zhang was quickly stationed in a stronghold.
In addition to Meng Zhang, the great void-returning expert, there are also six Yuanshen-stage monks stationed at this stronghold, as well as several machine puppets provided by the Tiangong.
The agency puppet is responsible for the daily maintenance of the stronghold, and is also a defense tool.
Meng Zhang's task is to lead his six Yuanshen monks to monitor the nearby area and go out on regular patrols.
Overall, this job is relatively easy.
As long as the extraterritorial invaders are kept at bay and there are no major problems on the front line, Meng Zhang can stay here.
There is nothing difficult about these daily tasks.
During routine patrols, if he was in a good mood, Meng Zhang would even capture some cloud beasts or collect some unowned resources within nine days.
While stationed at the stronghold, Meng Zhang could maintain his daily practice as long as nothing happened.
Meng Zhang's recruitment this time actually has another benefit.
When he was in Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang maintained his daily practice, which required a huge amount of Yuqing Spirit Machine.
For the Taiyi Sect at this time, it is already very difficult to provide the monks in the sect with the Jade Purifying Spirit Machine, which can be regarded as a huge burden.
Due to the large-scale attacks by foreign invaders, Junchen Realm lost many peripheral strongholds, including many resource points, and the entire Junchen Realm experienced a shortage of resources.
Especially those high-end resources, such as Yuqing Lingji, even have a price but no market.
There are not many cultivation forces with blessed lands in Junchen Realm.
Recently, the Tiangong has also tightened its restrictions on foreign monks from entering the Tiangong.
The monks who can now freely enter and leave the Heavenly Palace either hold positions in the Heavenly Palace or have residences in the Heavenly Palace.
In order to accumulate strength to supply the defense system, Tiangong also reduced the supply of spiritual energy to most places in Tiangong, including the stations of various cultivation forces in Tiangong.
In the past, like the Taiyi Sect's station in the Heavenly Palace, the daily supply of spiritual energy could fully satisfy the daily practice of several Yuanshen stage monks.
If a powerful person like Meng Zhang wants to obtain a sufficient supply of spiritual energy, he must consume Tiangong merit points and rent a retreat room in Tiangong.
Now, the Taiyi Sect's residence in the Heavenly Palace can only meet the daily practice needs of one or two Yuanshen True Monarchs at most.
Due to this series of measures taken by Tiangong, many high-level monks, including the Taiyi Sect monks, felt that life was beginning to get tighter.
There have been many complaints among various cultivation forces in Junchen Realm.
However, Tiangong has already said that this is a special period when foreign enemies are under pressure, and temporary measures have to be adopted.
Some complaints and the like will not have much impact.
The monks who were strapped for money could only endure it and let it go.
Since Meng Zhang was recruited by Tiangong to serve the army.
During the time when he was recruited, the Heavenly Palace would be responsible for his daily support.
The spiritual energy concentration of the stronghold he is stationed in can only be used by a group of Yuanshen True Monarchs for their daily practice.
As for the Heavenly Palace, they will also provide him with the Yuqing Spirit Machine.
These expenses will eventually be included in Tiangong's war expenses.
In addition, Meng Zhang still has a position in Tiangong.
When he was in the Yang Shen period, he served as the law enforcement envoy of the Law Enforcement Hall and received his salary from the Heavenly Palace on a regular basis.
Ever since he was promoted to the Void Return Stage, this salary was not enough.
However, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat.
Calculated in this way, most of the resources needed for Meng Zhang's daily practice have been solved.
While Meng Zhang was in the stronghold, he could barely maintain his daily practice.
This time, it was originally to punish him and recruit him to serve in the army, but because of Ban Xue Jianjun's care, it actually lightened the burden on Taiyi Sect and him.
Sure enough, there is someone in the court who is easy to get things done.
As the fighting on the frontline becomes more intense, more Yuanshen monks need to be recruited as cannon fodder.
Fighting against foreign invaders is not only a matter for the Tiangong and the major holy land sects, but also for the entire Junchen world, and all cultivation forces cannot stay away.
As the clean-up operation within Junchen Realm comes to an end, many cultivation forces in Junchen Realm have their hands free.
Tiangong issued a recruitment order to all major qualified cultivation forces, recruiting Yuanshen monks to go to Tiangong to listen.
Taiyi Sect, as a sect with many Yuanshen monks, is naturally within the scope of recruitment.
Taiyi Sect did not dare to disobey Tiangong's recruitment order, so they had to send several Yuanshen monks to accept the recruitment and go to Tiangong.
Ban Xue Jianjun always felt that he was sorry for what happened last time. Not only did he take care of Meng Zhang, but he also loved Taiyi Sect.
Under her secret hands and feet, the Yuanshen monks recruited from Taiyi Sect were directly sent to garrison at the stronghold within Jiutian, and then transferred to Meng Zhang's command.
Meng Zhang was of course overjoyed by this.
Although it is relatively safe for the time being in Nine Days, no one can guarantee when a war will break out.
The monks under him are all disciples of the Taiyi Sect, so Meng Zhang will naturally feel more at ease.
For those Taiyi Sect monks, it was even more of a surprise.
He escaped the fate of being cannon fodder on the front line and served under his own boss, so he would naturally receive enough care.
With the care of the Void Returning Power, they can avoid a lot of trouble.
Meng Zhang was extremely grateful to Banxue Jianjun for being so helpful, and he felt more and more that she was a friend worth making.
