Meng Zhang may not even think that the Taiyi Sect is now considered a very powerful and prestigious sect among the local forces in Jiuqu Province.

The Taiyi Sect has taken the initiative to retreat and will not conflict with the powerful foreign dragons, so not many cultivation forces dare to come forward to resist.

In fact, these fierce dragons from the mainland of the Dali Dynasty have profound backgrounds and unfathomable strength.

Their style of conduct has always been brave and diligent, and they are accustomed to pursuing victory and will never give in, let alone show mercy.

Meng Zhang soon received news that these external forces were preparing to reestablish the Alchemist Guild and re-regulate the elixir market in Jiuqu Province.

According to the practice in the world of cultivation, there are alchemist guilds almost everywhere.

The original intention of establishing the Alchemist Guild was to prevent tampered pills from flowing into cultivators and causing large-scale disasters.

However, as it developed later, the Alchemist Guild completely deteriorated and became a means for cultivation overlords from various places to monopolize the local market for elixirs.

Feihong Sect, the original overlord of the Endless Sand Sea, established the Alchemist Guild.

Only the cultivation forces approved by Feihong Sect are eligible to join it.

Only elixirs approved by the Alchemist Guild can be officially circulated on the market.

All privately made elixirs that have not been approved by the Alchemist Guild will be confiscated immediately once discovered, and the relevant personnel will be severely punished.

After Taiyi Sect became the overlord of the Endless Sand Sea, it also retained this organization, but the leader was replaced by Taiyi Sect itself.

This not only helps Taiyi Sect rule, but also helps Taiyi Sect control the elixir market.

After Taiyi Sect joined the Jiuqu League, they went through a lot of troubles and paid a lot of money before they joined the Alchemist Guild of the Jiuqu League and had the power to sell elixirs to external parties.

According to the rules of the Alchemist Guild, every time the Taiyi Sect sells a batch of pills in Jiuqu League, they must pay a sum of spiritual stones to the Alchemist Guild.

Later, the Jiuqu Alliance went through a series of changes, and the Alchemist Guild existed in name only, and no cultivation force would pay heed to these regulations.

If these external forces from the mainland of the Dali Dynasty achieve their own goals and reestablish the Alchemy Master's Guild, they will definitely gradually control the Jiuqu League's market for elixirs.

The elixirs produced by sects such as Taiyi Sect may not be able to be circulated openly on the market.

Although Meng Zhang was dissatisfied with this, he could barely tolerate it.

What he is really worried about is that these external forces are taking advantage of it, controlling the circulation of elixirs, and then controlling talismans and magic weapons...

In the end, it even controls the circulation of all elixirs, spiritual materials, etc.

In the world of cultivation, almost every sect may have had such a dream.

On the territory of our sect, we can produce all needed elixirs and spiritual materials...

Within the sect, all needed elixirs and talismans can be refined...

In this way, even if the entire sect is completely closed and has no contact with the outside world, it can still be self-sufficient and not rely on outsiders.

Meng Zhang also had such a fantasy, and he also knew that it could only be a fantasy.

There are countless elixirs, spiritual materials, etc. in the world of cultivation.

These things are produced in different environments and are distributed all over the world. No matter which sect they belong to, they cannot completely control them.

Not to mention the sects of the Taiyi Sect, even the Qingyuan Sect and the Jade Sword Sect in their heyday could not build an independent kingdom behind closed doors and had to search for various supplies from outside.

In terms of elixirs alone, the territory of Taiyi Sect is so vast. There is also a space magic weapon Baicao Pavilion in the mountain gate, which is specially used to cultivate various elixirs. However, the sect still has to purchase large quantities of elixirs from outside in order to be satisfied.

Dan Tang’s needs.

This is because many elixirs are not produced by Taiyimen itself and cannot control the place of production.

Although Meng Zhang was worried, he could not rashly fight against the fierce dragons crossing the river just because of this worry.

He still knows how much he has in his family.

Although the Dali Dynasty was generally peaceful and the major cultivation forces were united on the surface, various overt and covert struggles almost never stopped.

As long as they don't send out an army of monks to start a large-scale war, the officials of the Dali Dynasty can't do much.

Since these fierce dragons across the river dare to expand so wildly, they must have their own confidence.

As long as Meng Zhang protects his one-third of an acre of land and doesn't go out to cause trouble, they won't take the initiative to cause trouble, let alone knock on the door in a big way.

But if Meng Zhang takes the initiative to fight with them, they will have many means to make Taiyi Sect uneasy.

Meng Zhang could bear it, but some people could no longer sit still.

Sihai Commercial Bank, as the largest local commercial bank, was the most severely squeezed by external forces and suffered the most losses.

Our counterparts are enemy countries. Regardless of whether Sihai Trading Company is willing or not, active or passive, they are all facing off against these external forces.

Sihai Commercial Bank has almost no advantage against these external forces.

After a lot of troubles, Sihai Trading Company was almost defeated and suffered heavy losses.

A powerful trading house that once controlled most of Jiuqu League's commerce has now lost almost all of its market, not even a small business of buying low and selling high can no longer continue.

As far as Meng Zhang knows, Master You Hongzhi of Sihai Trading Company has been moving among the local forces during this period, as if he is trying to establish some kind of connection.

True Lord You Hongzhi also tried to contact Meng Zhang and wanted to get Meng Zhang on board.

Meng Zhang was already very wary of Sihai Trading Company, who would get involved with them.

True Lord You Hongzhi came to visit several times, but Meng Zhang avoided him in the name of seclusion, leaving Niu Dawei to deal with him.

Of course, Meng Zhang did not interfere in this matter, which does not mean that he is not concerned about it.

He wanted to see what result the local snakes like True Lord You Hongzhi could achieve in a fight with the fierce dragon crossing the river.

Although he is not optimistic about the former at all, he still wants to see if there is any advantage in the middle.

Meng Zhang has not always been so leisurely.

He himself also had a lot of troubles.

The Red Pig True Lord and the Jade Rabbit True Lord of the Dark Alliance branch of the Jiuqu Alliance led their men to withdraw early and flew away, far away from the Jiuqu Alliance.

With the support of the Dali Dynasty, True Lord Dong Qiang and True Lord White Crow returned home in full glory and completely took control of the Dark Alliance branch.

After taking control of the Dark Alliance branch, they naturally had to clean up the Dark Alliance branch's industries.

Unfortunately, True Lord Chizhu, who had been well prepared, had entrusted many valuable properties to the name of Taiyi Sect.

Of course, the actual owner of these properties is the Dark Alliance branch rebuilt by Shushan Zhenjun on the territory of Taiyi Sect.

Of course, Zhenjun Dong Qiang and the others could not accept this situation. They watched helplessly as many valuable properties were inexplicably owned by the Taiyi Sect.

A mere Taiyi Sect has not yet been taken seriously by them.
