Chapter 706 Bad News
Meng Zhang started with a Yin-Yang Avenue and extended to many other avenues.
In addition to the fundamental avenue of Yin and Yang, he also extensively dabbled in other avenues, trying to learn by analogy and understand more of the rules of the avenue.
By the time the enlightenment state ended, he had already gained a lot.
In just that short period of time, his insights and gains on the great path exceeded those in the past three hundred years of cultivation.
Of course, this principle is just like eating the third loaf and being full, it does not mean that the first and second loaves are not needed.
Without the accumulation of more than three hundred years, he might not be able to achieve the understanding and gains he has today.
For monks in the Yuanshen stage, it is not too difficult to comprehend the great ways of heaven and earth. It is basically a daily practice.
But for the golden elixir stage monks, if they do not enter the state of enlightenment just now, it is really very difficult to understand the great way of heaven and earth.
Every opportunity to understand the Great Way of Heaven and Earth is basically rare.
Meng Zhang vaguely felt that he and Xu Mengying killed Xu Huanshan this time, and gained a lot of heavenly merit. Far more than what he had gained by killing Demon Xiu Ye Feifan.
Xu Huanshan was a monk in the later stage of Yuanshen. After becoming a demon, he was of great significance to the demonic path. No matter how much potential Ye Feifan had at that time, and no matter how he was favored by the great demon in the demon realm, in the final analysis, he was just a monk in the golden elixir stage.
Killing Xu Huanshan is of great significance, and its contribution to the world of Junchen Realm will naturally be even greater.
The heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as stupid dogs. The aloof heaven in the world of Junchen is always so fair and selfless and treats everyone equally.
Most of the heavenly merits that Meng Zhang gained this time have been dissipated due to his sudden enlightenment.
This epiphany saved him decades or even hundreds of years, helped him complete the final accumulation, and eliminated the final obstacle on the road to the Yuanshen stage.
Meng Zhang had a strong intuition that after he returned to Taiyi Sect, he could directly retreat to the Yuanshen stage.
Everything is ready now, all we need is the east wind.
Although Meng Zhang felt a little impatient, he still tried his best to stay calm and not let himself be too ecstatic.
When Meng Zhang was in a state of enlightenment, Xu Mengying, as the comrade who killed Xu Huanshan, seemed to have also gained huge gains.
Meng Zhang glanced at Xu Mengying from a distance and felt that her aura had become particularly ethereal, giving her a feeling of being different from human beings and full of fairy spirit.
Now that the goal of this trip has been accomplished, Meng Zhang has no intention of staying here any longer.
He had already received the reward he deserved just now.
Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying said hello and flew away directly.
Meng Zhang flew to the top of the abyss, followed the route he came from, walked out of the mountain, and flew into the high sky outside.
Flying rapidly all the way, Meng Zhang flew back to Maple Leaf Mountain City in a much shorter time than when he went there.
Everything in Maple Leaf Mountain City remained as usual, and no other accidents occurred.
Seeing the leader Meng Zhang return, some disciples from the Taiyi Sect who were stationed there took the initiative to greet him. They also told Meng Zhang that the disciples at the Baicao Slope of the Taiyi Sect Mountain Gate were looking for him in a hurry, as if something big happened there.
After Meng Zhang heard this, he did not dare to neglect and immediately teleported back to Baicao Slope of Taiyimen Mountain Gate.
Not long after Meng Zhang returned to Baicao Slope, he saw the Thunder God General whose face was covered with scars, half of his arms were missing from his upper body, and his lower body was floating directly in the air, with his legs and feet completely invisible.
The Thunder God General actually appeared in front of him with such an appearance, and Meng Zhang had a wave of ominous premonitions in his heart.
Sure enough, Thunder God General brought a big bad news, which can even be called bad news.
This time, Taiyimen recruited a large number of elites and went to the Yuantu Prairie to participate in the war.
However, due to the care of True Monarch Jin Li, most of the monks who participated in the war did not go directly to the front lines to fight, but were arranged to be responsible for transferring materials and arranging supplies at the rear.
Although these logistical tasks are arduous, they are not too dangerous.
Later, the war became more and more intense, and more and more monks from the Taiyi Sect were recruited to the Yuantu Prairie.
The person responsible for dispatching the Taiyi Sect monks on the front line is Meng Zhang's eldest disciple Niu Dawei.
In order to cope with the increasingly stringent recruitment of Jiuqu League, he had to transfer several monks in his sect who had recently formed elixirs to the Yuantu Prairie.
Although these new Jindan monks have limited combat capabilities, they are arranged to be responsible for logistics work in the rear, so there is still no big problem in terms of safety.
But no one expected that the barbarians from outside the territory, seeing that the Jiuqu Alliance had gained a huge advantage and were retreating steadily, would actually choose to launch a desperate counterattack.
The target of their counterattack was Dongyuan City, the logistics hub of the Jiuqu Alliance, a large city that Meng Zhang had visited.
Several barbarian kings personally led the barbarian army to launch a surprise attack. Although Dongyuan City resisted with all its strength, it inevitably fell in the end.
One of the two True Lords of the Human Race Yuanshen who was stationed in Dongyuan City was killed and the other was injured. True Lord Jindan suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining monks suffered countless losses.
The Taiyi Sect monks who were responsible for the logistics and transportation work in Dongyuan City were also unable to avoid a tragic end.
Two new Jindan practitioners, Luo Sanping and Deng Sha, were killed on the spot, and almost all the other Jindan masters were seriously injured.
Looking as miserable as the Thunder God General is already considered a good thing.
After all, the Dharma Protector General is a special Taoist soldier, not a pure human monk. As long as he has enough spiritual objects from heaven and earth and is refined, he can slowly make up for the scars on his body.
Zheng Chao, a senior member of the Taiyi Sect who was famous for his bellicosity, Jindan Zhenren, was seriously injured and was dying. If Jinli Zhenjun had not rushed back in time and expended great efforts to heal his injuries, his life would have been lost.
Even so, it will take a long time for Zheng Chao to fully recover.
Moreover, after the injury healed in the future, there were still great sequelae. From then on, his cultivation was unable to continue to progress.
Jindan Master Hu Jing, who is the most proficient in the art of controlling beasts in the Taiyi Sect, lost all three of his third-level natal spiritual beasts to death in the battle. He himself was seriously injured and dying, his foundation was shaken, and his cultivation was not guaranteed.
The situation of the other Taiyi Sect Jindan monks in Dongyuan City is a little better than them, but they are also not optimistic.
After Zhenjun Jin Li stabilized their seriously injured bodies, he asked someone to send them back to Taiyi Gate.
As for the foundation-building monks sent by Taiyi Sect, they suffered almost all casualties, with only a few survivors.
It was because he had made a major breakthrough in his cultivation and saw that the Soul Stage was in sight. He had not been in a good mood for long, but when he heard such bad news, Meng Zhang was almost angry to death.
Why did this happen? How could the disciples of Taiyi Sect suffer such heavy casualties?
Questions flashed through Meng Zhang's mind, and anger almost filled his chest.
