CHAPTER 817: SUPPLIES

True Monarch Azure Peak fell into a trap and di

True Monarch Azure Peak fell into a trap and died in battle. Jade Sword True Monarch and Xiao Jiansheng could only accept the reality, albeit unwillingly.

In their eyes, Zhang Wei could be the mastermind, and Qing Gu True Monarch was the main accomplice.

Betraying the sect and killing a fellow disciple like Qing Gu True Monarch was truly unforgivable and deserved death.

They deeply hated Qing Gu True Monarch and wished to get rid of him as soon as possible.

The death of True Monarch Azure Peak caused many problems for Jade Sword Sect and led to suspicion and dissatisfaction within the Jiuqu League.

Facing Zhang Wei's tactics and as the Great Marshal, Qing Gu True Monarch felt a sense of fear.

With the support of a powerful sect like Purple Yang Holy Sect, Qing Gu True Monarch had already been swaying in his loyalty to Dali Dynasty.

Of course, he hadn't yet taken any actions to betray Dali Dynasty.

However, at this critical moment, Zhang Wei made a move that deepened the rift between Qing Gu True Monarch and Jiuqu League, causing him to be despised by Jade Sword True Monarch and Xiao Jiansheng.

As a result, even if Qing Gu True Monarch had any ideas, it would be difficult to put them into action.

Zhang Wei seemed to have a profound understanding of human nature, as if he could see through everything. He was highly strategic and skilled at seizing opportunities. With just one move, he achieved the goal of killing two birds with one stone.

Since Qing Gu True Monarch cut ties with Purple Yang Holy Sect, he could only serve Dali Dynasty loyally.

In fact, when True Monarch Azure Peak led many disciples to leave Azure Origin Sect, Qing Gu True Monarch allowed True Monarch Azure Gem to handle the matter to leave himself a retreat and not overly deplete Azure Origin Sect's vitality.

True Monarch Azure Gem, as Qing Gu True Monarch had anticipated, deliberately showed mercy and let True Monarch Azure Peak and his disciples go.

Otherwise, even with the help of He Luo True Monarch, it would have been difficult for True Monarch Azure Peak to lead his disciples safely to the north of the Jiuqu League.

Prince Xia Houfeng, the former chief commander of Dali Dynasty, knew about this, but he thought it was human nature. Besides, Qing Gu True Monarch still had considerable value to be used, so he didn't pursue the matter.

However, the new chief commander quietly cut off Qing Gu True Monarch's choices and filled this loophole.

Under Zhang Wei's command, the North Sweeping Grand Army of Dali Dynasty seemed less imposing, but it brought even greater pressure on Jiuqu League.

He Luo True Monarch was unaware of the twists and turns in this matter and blamed Jade Sword Sect for the death of True Monarch Azure Peak.

Meng Zhang, far away in the Endless Sea of Sand, had no connection with this matter but inexplicably benefited from it, gaining a powerful ally.

With He Luo True Monarch's support, Taiyi Sect appeared even stronger.

Although they did not launch a full-scale attack, their eager-to-act attitude was hard to hide.

The more dominant Taiyi Sect became, the calmer the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan appeared, displaying remarkable restraint.

As extraterritorial Barbarian Clan settled down, Taiyi Sect lifted the previous state of full alert.

Cultivators at various levels in the sect resumed rotation to the frontline.

The large army of cultivators from the Hanhai Alliance also had time for rotation and rest.

The internal operations of Taiyi Sect and the Hanhai Alliance gradually resumed.

Some work that had been completely stalled due to manpower shortage started again.

Meng Zhang now had more time for cultivation.

He had a considerable amount of Nine Heavens Refined Essence and some Pure Jade Inspiration, ensuring enough time for his cultivation.

His cultivation had never been hindered and continued to rise slowly and steadily.

In recent years, Taiyi Sect had collected a lot of resources, and Meng Zhang had gained many treasures, including several Fourth Rank spirit items.Meng Zhang selected suitable Fourth Rank spirit items and slowly integrated them into his natal spiritual tool, the Yin Yang Spirit Gourd.

After a long period of nurturing and nourishing, the previous loss of the natal spirit gourd was compensated for.

Both Taiyi Sect and Meng Zhang were currently in a favorable situation, and he had no intention of changing that.

Continuing to confront extraterritorial Barbarian Clan in a stalemate until the end of time seemed like an acceptable outcome.

Taiyi Sect remained calm and composed, facing the large army of extraterritorial Barbarian Clan.

However, problems began to arise on the side of the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan.

In the Cultivation World, it had always been popular to refine various grades of Grain Pills.

Grain Pills were not high-level elixirs; they were entry-level pills.

Even in the resource-poor and generally low-level alchemy of the Endless Sea of Sand, Grain Pills were widely used.

After Taiyi Sect became the ruler of the Endless Sea of Sand, with its accumulated resources, they could easily ensure a sufficient supply of Grain Pills.

High-level cultivators could cultivate without eating and rely on qi for nourishment. Low-level cultivators had an ample supply of Grain Pills.

On the side of the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan, although they also had similar pills like Military Food Pills, they had a great demand for blood food due to their emphasis on cultivating their physical bodies.

Moreover, every member of the Barbarian Clan had a large appetite.

When this Barbarian Clan army invaded the Endless Sea of Sand, they carried a large amount of blood food stored in their storage magic tools. Each Barbarian Clan member also carried a significant amount of Military Food Pills with them.

By now, Taiyi Sect had been entangled with this Barbarian Clan army for over four years.

The large consumption of Military Food Pills and the increasingly scarce supply of blood food had become a concern.

Due to the characteristics of their race and their cultivation methods, if the Barbarian Clan did not receive a steady supply of blood food for an extended period, they would gradually become weaker.

In the environment and conditions of the Endless Sea of Sand, this Barbarian Clan army was almost unable to replenish its blood food.

Helpless, the Barbarian King Tuller Bear had to request reinforcements from the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan on Yuantu Great Prairie, hoping to get a new supply of blood food.

Yuatu Great Prairie was abundant in cultivation resources, and there were various flying beasts and beasts.

Since the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan intended to manage this area, they naturally wouldn't overexploit it. They showed restraint when hunting.

Moreover, though the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan appeared overly destructive, focused on destruction and plunder, internally they still practiced agriculture and animal husbandry.

Upon receiving the request for reinforcements from Barbarian King Tuller Bear, the high-level members of the Barbarian Clan stationed on Yuantu Great Prairie specially dispatched a team to deliver supplies to the Barbarian Clan army.

The extraterritorial Barbarian Clan didn't have many storage magic tools for living creatures, and the few they had were mostly large-sized magic tools, usually accompanying the army during their operations.

The team that delivered supplies from Yuantu Great Prairie had a small number of people and a scarce supply of storage magic tools, so they could only make several trips to deliver the supplies.

This team frequently entering and leaving the large camp of the Barbarian Clan army naturally attracted the attention of Taiyi Sect.

Taiyi Sect wanted to intercept and capture this team halfway.

However, every time the team arrived at the large camp of the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan, the reigning Barbarian King would take turns to receive them. Moreover, the escort force of this team was not weak.

As they did not want to provoke a large-scale battle, Taiyi Sect attempted to intercept the team several times but returned empty-handed.

Meng Zhang himself had taken action, but he also didn't want to engage in a direct confrontation with the Barbarian King.
