The True Dragon Clan is a foreign race, the formidable enemy of cultivators, and even more so the human race.
Faced with strong external pressure, Meng Zhang repeatedly lowered his bottom line, preferring to seek skin from a tiger.
Or to put it nicely, it’s called having a more flexible bottom line.
However, the True Dragon Clan has nothing to do with magic, so Meng Zhangcai is willing to cooperate with them.
Meng Zhang wanted to use the power of the True Dragon Clan to resist the major Holy Land sects. The True Dragon Clan tried to use the Taiyi Sect to cause greater civil strife within the human cultivators and weaken the overall strength of the human cultivators.
Both parties are well aware of each other's intentions and are willing to cooperate and utilize each other.
Both sides are very confident in themselves and think that they are the ones who have the last laugh.
After Meng Zhang returned to the sect from the South China Sea, he arranged for his cronies within the sect to secretly establish contact with the True Dragon Clan.
Taiyi Sect monks often go to the South China Sea in the name of visiting the Hai Ling Sect, and secretly meet with the strong men of the True Dragon Clan through the Hai Clan entrenched in the South China Sea.
Of course, all this was kept extremely confidential, and even our allies, the Hai Ling Sect, were kept in the dark.
In addition, Taiyi Sect has many enclaves in the West Sea and has established many strongholds to exploit the resources of the West Sea.
Taiyi Sect has specialized monks in Xihai who are responsible for contacting the True Dragon Clan.
The two parties secretly conducted various transactions and exchanged what they had.
The human cultivators are nominally the rulers of the Junchen Realm, but deep in the ocean of the Junchen Realm is the territory of the True Dragon Clan.
Even if Zhenhai Palace and other sects defeated the Sea Clan and occupied a large area of territory in the sea, they were far from touching the territory of the True Dragon Clan.
The True Dragon Clan occupies an extremely vast territory deep in the ocean and possesses extremely rich resources.
In particular, certain resources that only grow in special environments deep in the ocean are extremely precious and scarce to the world of cultivation.
On the surface, the True Dragon Clan has no contact with human cultivators, nor does it have any formal business channels.
Many human cultivators either practice special techniques or refine special elixirs, etc., which often require special products from the depths of the ocean.
At this time, the very few similar specialties that flow into the cultivation world through smuggling channels are often sold at sky-high prices.
Taiyi Sect, like other sects involved in the West Sea, can exploit many resources in the sea, but has no way to access the resources in the deep ocean.
After establishing contact with the True Dragon Clan, the business between the two parties will be of great benefit to each other.
The true dragon clan's influence on the mainland is effective, but it also requires a lot of resources produced on the mainland.
The Taiyi Sect strictly keeps its dealings with the True Dragon Clan strictly confidential, and is even more cautious in handling resources from various transactions.
Those resources that can be obtained in the sea areas controlled by the human race can be sold by Taiyi Sect.
Those resources that are only produced in the depths of the ocean are generally digested internally by the Taiyi Sect and almost never flow out.
Taiyi Sect now has more than 10,000 direct cultivators. The members of the Hanhai Dao Alliance under its command and the casual cultivators who have lived in its territory for a long time total five figures.
With such a vast market, there is naturally a huge demand.
The vast territory of Taiyi Sect has almost been fully developed, and more resources need to be introduced from the outside.
Taiyi Sect itself has a very strong production capacity, covering all aspects of elixir refining, weapon refining, talisman making, etc., and has a strong ability to digest various resources.
If the situation in Junchen Realm hadn't been like this, Taiyi Sect might have embarked on the road of external expansion again.
Meng Zhang initially established contact with the True Dragon Clan just to preserve an emergency escape route.
Now, after years of secret trade, Taiyi Sect has become more and more dependent on this secret trade route.
Meng Zhang originally looked down upon the indigenous gods and descendants of the gods in Junchen Realm.
But after exploring the secret space left by the indigenous gods in the void, his thoughts changed greatly.
The centipede insect is dead but not stiff. The indigenous gods have ruled the Junchen world for many years. Even if they are completely defeated by cultivators, they still have some residual heritage.
Especially since Qiu Gangfeng, a great master of returning to the void, has taken refuge in the forces of the indigenous gods, Meng Zhang has more expectations for him.
The indigenous gods and cultivators of Junchen Realm are at odds with each other, and there are countless blood feuds between them and the current rulers of Junchen Realm.
Although it is said that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, the hatred between cultivators and the indigenous gods is too deep. As a cultivator, Meng Zhang does not expect to form an alliance with the remaining indigenous gods.
He just hopes to use the power of the indigenous gods to deal a blow to the major holy land sects.
Meng Zhang tried to establish contact with the indigenous gods secretly, but he was not very successful.
The remaining indigenous gods in Junchen Realm have been able to survive thousands of years of pursuit by cultivators. Their hiding skills are very good, and they are even more wary of cultivators.
Although Meng Zhang and Luna had collaborated before, he and Luna had temporarily lost contact since their last separation.
Without the help of the Moon God, Meng Zhang was temporarily unable to establish contact with the wary indigenous gods, and naturally could not use the other party's power.
Of course, Meng Zhang did not give up and still ordered the Taiyi Sect monks to search for the whereabouts of the indigenous gods and obtain various information about them.
The entire world of cultivation has spent thousands of years without finding and killing the remaining indigenous gods. If Taiyi Sect wants to find them in a short time, it seems unlikely to succeed.
Taiyi Sect's intelligence system is not without its faults.
The identities and origins of the five void-returning masters who participated in the robbery of the Gu Yue family's treasures were quickly investigated.
They seemed to be completely unrelated casual cultivators, but behind them, traces of the major holy land sects could be faintly seen.
Meng Zhang guessed correctly. They were chess pieces secretly cultivated by the major Holy Land sects. They were specially used to deal with some matters that the major Holy Land sects could not directly come forward to deal with.
Now is not the right time, and it is not easy for Meng Zhang to go to these guys to settle accounts. He can only write down the accounts and wait for settlement in the future.
Now Meng Zhang is trying every means to find any useful allies.
Unfortunately, given the size of the Junchen Realm, there are really only a few forces that dare to confront the major sects of the Holy Land.
After so many years of hard work, Taiyi Sect has finally made contact with the forces that can be contacted.
As for those demon cultivators and ghost cultivators, Meng Zhang looked down upon them at all.
First, Meng Zhang had a bottom line and was unwilling to collude with the devil.
Secondly, the demon cultivators and ghost cultivators in Junchen Realm are useless, they are just like street rats.
Meng Zhang knew very well that the major sects in the Holy Land were powerful, and Taiyi Sect needed more external forces to contain them.
Sometimes Meng Zhang couldn't help but think about whether he should secretly find a way to contact foreign invaders, especially those forces that were in conflict with the devil.
After several considerations, because there was no reliable channel and Meng Zhang had always been very repulsive about it, he gave up the idea temporarily.
