Not only Taiyi Sect, but the entire Hanhai Dao League has already started actively preparing for war.

Under Meng Zhang's strict supervision, Taiyi Sect disciples have already begun rigorous practical training.

Menzhong began to work hard to produce various war weapons, including some rare large-scale magic weapons and combination magic weapons.

In order to rush for time, some less important components were subcontracted by Taiyi Sect to some weapon refining sects within the Hanhai Dao League, as well as some surrounding weapon refining sects.

Many carefully selected elite disciples of the Taiyi Sect began to practice large-scale war formations.

Large war arrays can not only be used on large-scale frontal battlefields, but also integrate the power of the arrays to contain high-level monks.

For example, the magic circle being prepared by the Taiyi Sect is presided over by Jindan Zhenren, with monks in the foundation-building stage as the backbone. When the magic circle is fully operational, it can even harm monks in the Yuan Shen stage.

If the Dali Dynasty and the Jiuqu Alliance go to war in an all-out manner, the outcome of the war will definitely not only depend on the top monks on both sides.

If the low-level monks are of no use at all, then both sides can just let the True Monarch of Yuanshen come out and beat them to death. What other low-level monks are needed?

If low-level monks want to compete with high-level monks, they need to rely on formations, use magic weapons, etc.

The current Taiyi Sect has many classics inherited from the Taiyi Sect in its heyday, plus the personal supervision of several Dharma Protector Generals. After years of practice, it is more or less confident in this regard.

Meng Zhangdu took the stage in person and tested the training results of his disciples.

As long as they set up the magic circle, they are not without resistance when facing the Yuanshen monks.

Meng Zhang's several tentative attacks were easily resolved by them, and they were able to counterattack from time to time.

Meng Zhang could not completely ignore their counterattack.

With such results, Meng Zhang couldn't ask for more.

Time passed quickly, and half a year passed in a flash. The day Xu Mengying expected to ambush True Lord Yue Feng came quietly.

Early that morning, Xu Mengying led Meng Zhang and flew high into the sky, directly into the Jiutian area.

Jiutian is a special area with many levels.

Ordinary late-stage Jindan monks only dare to operate in the outer areas.

Meng Zhang's time to achieve Yuanshen was still short, and he only came to Jiutian only a few times.

Every time I go in and out quickly, collect the essence of the nine days and leave.

He is really not very familiar with the deeper areas of Jiutian.

Xu Mengying's time to achieve Yuan Shen was shorter than Meng Zhang's. With the accumulation of the Huanglian Sect's previous Yuan Shen Lords, she did not need to enter the Nine Heavens in person to collect the Nine Heavens essence.

When she first entered the Jiutian area, she still felt a little unfamiliar with the surrounding area.

Soon, she took out a compass the size of a palm, and after a while of gestures, she found a direction and flew away.

Meng Zhang's spiritual sense did not give any warning, and he did not detect any danger.

He followed Xu Mengying and flew in the same direction.

When you reach the realm of True Lord Yuanshen, as long as you don't intentionally seek death or go to some too dangerous areas, within nine days, not to mention entering a deserted land, you can at least avoid most dangers and ensure your own life safety.

.

Xu Mengying followed the guidance of the compass in her hand and walked around, stopping and going around.

Sometimes, if you are unlucky enough to encounter a powerful cloud beast, a big battle is inevitable.

Fortunately, the two of them are very powerful. After joining forces, they can advance and retreat freely as long as they don't encounter an overly powerful group of cloud beasts.

After killing two cloud beasts with Yuan Shen strength in a row, and also killing several large groups of cloud beasts, the two of them finally reached their destination.

Within nine days, the space was in chaos, with no clear distinction between up, down, left and right.

If a cultivator has not practiced special eye skills, hearing powers, etc., most of the time, he or she will rely solely on spiritual thoughts to determine the direction and guide the way forward.

The place Xu Mengying led Meng Zhang to was a rather special space.

Pieces of pitch-black clouds rolled endlessly ahead, like a large boiling lake.

Before he got too close, warning signs arose in Meng Zhang's heart, and he became increasingly wary.

"Ahead is the Black Evil Lake, which is condensed from a special evil spirit."

"This kind of evil spirit has a strong pollution effect on the Yuanshen. Even the True Lord Yuanshen cannot go deep into the lake for too long."

"About every five years or so, the evil spirit in the Black Evil Lake will weaken. At this time, if sufficient preparations are made in advance, the monks in the Yuan Shen stage can go deep into the lake."

Xu Mengying explained in a low voice for Meng Zhang.

"Since almost a century ago, whenever this time comes, Yue Feng will put aside all his affairs and come to this place."

Seeing Meng Zhang's interested expression, Xu Mengying continued to explain to him.

"Deep at the bottom of the lake, there is a treasure left by a senior monk. Beyond the treasure, there is a powerful evil beast guarding it."

"Yue Feng, this guy, never trusts others, and he is even less willing to share this treasure with others. With his own strength, he is defeated by evil beasts every time and returns without success."

"He is determined to win this treasure and will never give up easily. Even if he is defeated repeatedly, he will still come to seize the treasure."

"We secretly hide aside and wait for this guy Yue Feng to fight with the evil beast. Then we suddenly attack him. We are very sure that we can completely keep him behind."

Xu Mengying explained her arrangements in just a few words.

As for the origin of this treasure, how did True Lord Yue Feng know this place? Why was he so determined to obtain this treasure? How did Xu Mengying know this secret and be able to predict True Lord Yue Feng's actions and set up an ambush here in advance?

Xu Mengying didn't even mention this series of questions. Meng Zhang hesitated for a moment, but still didn't ask any more questions.

In the world of cultivation, almost everyone has their own secrets. Some secrets are absolutely not wanted to be known to outsiders.

Although Meng Zhang was curious, he couldn't talk too much or even force the other party to ask questions just because of his curiosity.

Meng Zhang respects Xu Mengying and her secret. As long as there are no problems in this ambush and her secret will not harm him, Meng Zhang will have her go.

Meng Zhang and Xu Mengying are allies now, and they will take care of each other a lot in the future. Meng Zhang does not want things that have nothing to do with him to affect the relationship between the two.

Seeing that Meng Zhang didn't get to the bottom of things and seemed to follow his own arrangements, Xu Mengying finally felt relieved.

There are some things that it is not the time to tell Meng Zhang yet. There are some secrets that she may never reveal.

According to Xu Mengying, the changes in Heisha Lake will occur in five days. True Lord Yue Feng probably arrived at that time.

They need to hide aside and spend these five days in secret.

Meng Zhang still has some patience, and it is not difficult to wait for five days.
