CHAPTER 829: ARRANGEMENTS

Although Jin LiTrue Monarch had been in seclusi

Although Jin LiTrue Monarch had been in seclusion for many years, her identity remained unchanged as a member of the Jiuqu League.

If the Jade Sword Sect called her to battle in the capacity of the Jiuqu League's leader, she would find it difficult to refuse.

After so many years in seclusion and experiencing pursuit by extraterritorial monsters, the ambition for power in Jin LiTrue Monarch's heart had long dissipated.

For her, the high position she once held in the Jiuqu League was a result of a misguided path she had taken.

In the end, as a cultivator, she must prioritize her own cultivation base.

With the dissipation of the confusion in her heart, her determination to pursue the path of cultivation became even stronger.

Since she no longer desired a high position in the Jiuqu League, she naturally didn't want to risk her life for them.

Moreover, Jade Sword Sect was not Azure Origin Sect, and she owed nothing to Jade Sword Sect nor had any personal connections with them.

Of course, one must still be strategic in their actions, and Jin LiTrue Monarch could not openly refuse the Jade Sword Sect's summons.

Using the excuse of treating her injuries, she couldn't delay for too long.

An open betrayal of the Jiuqu League would lead to many unfavorable consequences.

Jin LiTrue Monarch's cultivation base was not yet powerful enough for her to act recklessly.

Meng Zhang came up with a plan: he would have Jin LiTrue Monarch accompany him to the frontline camp of Taiyi Sect.

If the order for her summons from Jade Sword Sect arrived, they could say that she was entangled by powerful extraterritorial Barbarian Clan experts and couldn't break free.

At worst, she could fight with the Barbarian King when the time came.

The Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain's frontline was crucial, and Taiyi Sect's responsibility was equally significant.

The war between the Jiuqu League and the Dali Dynasty was an internal conflict within the Cultivation World.

When Taiyi Sect resisted the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan, they were defending against external enemies and firmly occupying the moral high ground of the Human Clan.

Facing the Jade Sword Sect's North Sweeping Grand Army from the Dali Dynasty, they probably wouldn't have the energy to deal with Taiyi Sect's slow maneuverings.

Meng Zhang had long harbored the idea of breaking free from the Jade Sword Sect and becoming independent due to a series of events.

However, because his strength was insufficient and the timing was not right, he temporarily suppressed this idea.

Since he had already lost his loyalty to the Jade Sword Sect, it was natural for him to survive and preserve his strength as much as possible.

Gaining the allegiance of Jin LiTrue Monarch, such a powerful force, was a great help for Taiyi Sect.

Before Meng Zhang achieved the level of Primordial SpiritTrue Monarch, Taiyi Sect had already been under the protection of Jin LiTrue Monarch.

Now that Meng Zhang had achieved Primordial Spirit, Taiyi Sect no longer needed a protector, but they still needed allies at the level of Primordial SpiritTrue Monarchs.

After experiencing public defeat and many years in seclusion, Jin LiTrue Monarch had become more composed.

Upon learning that Meng Zhang had achieved Primordial Spirit, she took the initiative to adjust her relationship with Taiyi Sect, treating Meng Zhang as an equal rather than with a condescending attitude.

Now, when Meng Zhang invited her to the frontline camp of Taiyi Sect, she readily agreed.

After the two arrived at the Taiyi Sect's frontline camp, they first informed Book MountainTrue Monarch and He LuoTrue Monarch about the whole situation.

After these two Primordial SpiritTrue Monarchs expressed their sighs, Book MountainTrue Monarch particularly reminded Meng Zhang to strengthen their defenses to prevent large-scale appearances of extraterritorial monsters and Spirit Clan in the Endless Sea of Sand.

Meng Zhang was well-versed in the Space Grand Dao, and he had analyzed the situation in detail.

Even if these Extraterritorial Invaders repaired the spatial channels, due to the deviation in their transmission, the most likely places for them to appear were the Jiuqu League and the Yuantu Great Prairie.

Of course, they must also remain vigilant in the Endless Sea of Sand and the Demon Wind Gobi.

If the Extraterritorial Invaders were too powerful and Taiyi Sect couldn't resist, they would have to abandon everything there and retreat to Maple Leaf Mountain City.

In fact, the key to this whole matter did not lie with Taiyi Sect at all.If the Jiuqu League can reach a truce with the Dali Dynasty, with the strength of these two factions, they should be able to withstand the Extraterritorial Invaders.

Throughout the history of the Grand Dust World, there have been several instances of extraterritorial invasions. However, catastrophic calamities that could engulf the entire Grand Dust World have been relatively rare. In most cases, the rulers of various regions were able to handle the situation on their own. If the situation becomes too severe, there are also the various powerful Holy Lands in the Middle-Earth Continent.

The fact that numerous powerful extraterritorial races have exhausted all means but failed to overthrow the rule of the Human Clan in the Grand Dust World surely has its reasons. Now that there are four Primordial SpiritTrue Monarchs on their side, they have an absolute advantage in terms of top-tier combat strength, allowing Meng Zhang to significantly reduce the number of low-level cultivators in the camp.

Extreme Sword Spirit General, the most experienced and oldest among them, led two Gold Core cultivators to guard the Mirage Secret Realm. Although the Mirage Secret Realm had a strong repelling force against foreign Gold Core Daoist Masters, they had learned the secret method of controlling the realm from Jin LiTrue Monarch, allowing them to freely enter and exit.

Extreme Sword Spirit General and the others stationed in the secret realm monitored the surrounding space fluctuations at all times. While it was unlikely that the extraterritorial monsters and Spirit Clan could reconnect the spatial channel to that place, they had to remain extra cautious just in case.

For the lower-level cultivators withdrawn from the frontline camp, they were divided into multiple teams under the leadership of Niu Dawei, a senior disciple of the Taiyi Sect's Sect Master. From now on, they would conduct intensive patrols in the Endless Sea of Sand and Demon Wind Gobi. If they discovered the appearance of extraterritorial monsters and Spirit Clan forces, they must promptly report to Meng Zhang.

These teams included cultivators from the Hanhai Alliance, who were originally cannon fodder collected by Taiyi Sect. Meng Zhang also made a promise to them that if they performed well in the future, Taiyi Sect could provide them with an opportunity to rebuild their sects and families.

During the previous great battle with the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan, the Hundred Battles Gate cultivators had shown impressive performance. In subsequent small-scale battles, they not only actively participated but also achieved significant results. Although the strongest among them were only Foundation Building cultivators, they performed no less than some Gold Core sects in the Hanhai Alliance.

In reward for their efforts and to set a good example, Meng Zhang allocated a decent territory for these Hundred Battles Gate cultivators in the Demon Wind Gobi, granting them land to rebuild their mountain gate. The great favor and grace bestowed upon them made these disciples deeply grateful to Meng Zhang. Their leader swore allegiance to Taiyi Sect, willing to be their vassal forever and serve Taiyi Sect faithfully.

During its prime, the Hundred Battles Gate was far stronger than Taiyi Sect and not much weaker than Jade Sword Sect. However, after experiencing so many years of setbacks, it had ultimately declined to a Foundation Building small sect, and they had to rely on becoming a vassal of Taiyi Sect to have the chance to rebuild their mountain gate.

Meng Zhang never believed in such pledges of allegiance and wouldn't give unnecessary sympathy because of their similar experiences with Taiyi Sect. He acted according to his usual principles. As long as Hundred Battles Gate behaved properly, abided by Taiyi Sect's rules, their existence would naturally continue.
