Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 174: Strain

For a sect with a Gold Core Daoist Master, if they don't have absolute certainty to annihilate the Gold Core of the opposing side, they should not easily start a war of extermination. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles.

Flying Swan Sect had suppressed the Qi Family of the Northern Desert for many years, engaging in small-scale battles and causing significant casualties, but they had never launched a full-scale war for this very reason.

Regardless of whether Flying Swan Sect was willing or not, Guang Zhi Daoist Master had already become a Gold Core Daoist Master. Since he was now a Gold Core Daoist Master, he was entitled to both the good and bad treatment that came with it.

After the internal turmoil within Flying Swan Sect calmed down, some people proposed actively recruiting Guang Zhi Daoist Master to prevent him from running to the Qi Family of the Northern Desert and altering the power balance in the Endless Sea of Sand.

In the world, there are no forever friends, nor forever enemies.

Guang Zhi Daoist Master had plotted against Flying Swan Sect, causing them to suffer heavy losses and lose face, but all that was already in the past.

People must learn to look forward. As the ruler of the Endless Sea of Sand, Flying Swan Sect should prioritize their interests and not let emotions sway their decisions.

This viewpoint surprisingly gained popularity within Flying Swan Sect.

Of course, the voices of opposition were louder.

Cultivators sought enlightenment with a single thought. If Guang Zhi Daoist Master really transformed and became a member of Flying Swan Sect, there would be many cultivators within Flying Swan Sect who would fail to achieve enlightenment.

Cultivators were not heartless, desireless immortals. The cultivators of Flying Swan Sect had not reached the level of being completely emotionless. They couldn't forget the humiliation they had just suffered so quickly.

And so, Flying Swan Sect found itself embroiled in internal disputes. As for Forest Spring Watch, apart from increasing surveillance, there were no further actions taken.

The Liu Family, a major force, took the opportunity after Twin Success Valley's demise to quickly seize control of Twin Success Valley's territory and absorb its legacy.

The news from the black market was indeed highly accurate, even being able to glean information about the internal debates within Flying Swan Sect.

After Meng Zhang obtained this information and analyzed the current situation, he quickly made a decision.

As long as the internal disputes in Flying Swan Sect were not settled, there would be no further actions. As long as Guang Zhi Daoist Master existed, Flying Swan Sect would be in a dilemma.

Twin Success Valley was the regional overlord, possessing a large amount of resources and numerous vassal forces.

Now that Twin Success Valley was no more, a huge vacuum had appeared in the surrounding areas.

Meng Zhang's successful Foundation Building had also elevated Taiyi Sect to the level of a Foundation Building sect gate, granting them the qualifications to join the fray.

Taiyi Sect should take advantage of this opportunity to expand its sphere of influence and strengthen its own power. This way, no matter how the situation changed, they would have more capital.

After making the decision, Meng Zhang hurriedly returned to Taiyi Sect at the fastest speed.

This was the first time he returned to the sect after successfully building his Foundation.

Without time to exchange pleasantries with the disciples, Meng Zhang immediately mobilized all the disciples and prepared to seize Twin Success Valley's legacy.

Singing Sand City was more than 700 li away, and it was the most fertile area within Twin Success Valley's industry.

After the news of Twin Success Valley's extermination spread, the disciples of Twin Success Valley who had been stationed in Singing Sand City scattered in all directions to escape.

This juicy piece of meat was too tempting, and it was not something Taiyi Sect could covet at the moment. According to the information Meng Zhang received, the Liu Family and Green Bamboo Mountain had already set their sights on this rich territory.

Meng Zhang's chosen target was the original sphere of influence of the Zhao Family.

After the Zhao Family perished, the Fuzhao Valley, where the Second Rank spirit vein was located, had been occupied by Twin Success Valley.

Among the Zhao Family's five oases, besides giving one to Taiyi Sect, the rest were still managed by Twin Success Valley.

The First Rank flying boat of Taiyi Sect and the Scarlet Feathered Eagle were used to transport disciples.

Meng Zhang personally led a group of disciples and rushed to Fuzhao Valley.

After the Second Rank protective formation set up by the Zhao Family was broken, Twin Success Valley had simply set up a First Rank formation here temporarily.

In any case, with Twin Success Valley's reputation, even without the protection of a formation, other forces in the vicinity would not dare to forcefully attack Twin Success Valley's territory.

Without the Second Rank formation obstructing them, Fuzhao Valley was completely defenseless before Meng Zhang, a cultivator at the Foundation Building stage.

Meng Zhang led the Taiyi Sect disciples directly and rushed into Fuzhao Valley.

The Twin Success Valley disciples who had originally been stationed in Fuzhao Valley were in a state of constant panic. Some disciples had already fled, and those remaining had no intention of defending this place.

Meng Zhang occupied Fuzhao Valley, and all the Twin Success Valley disciples were captured.

These disciples, even at the Foundation Building stage, were not present; they were all a group of Qi Refining period disciples.

After Twin Success Valley occupied Fuzhao Valley, they carefully cultivated it.

The Scarlet Feathered Fluid produced by the Second Rank spiritual eye of this Second Rank spirit vein had significant effects on all bird-type monster beasts. From the beginning, the Zhao Family was accustomed to raising avian-type monster beasts, which accumulated rich experience and cultivated the Scarlet Feathered Eagle, passing down the lineage.

Twin Success Valley also had experience in raising various types of monster birds, so there was no need to specifically raise the Scarlet Feathered Eagle.

The Scarlet Feathered Fluid produced in recent years was used to raise some immortal cranes and other monster birds.

The spirit fields of the Zhao Family were not left uncultivated in Twin Success Valley but were carefully tended to by skilled spirit farmers.

After Twin Success Valley scattered and broke through the siege of various groups of cultivators, they also gained many spoils of war, including the majority of the Zhao Family's treasury.

Apart from some resources being transported back to Twin Success Valley, there were still plenty of various resources left in the treasury to continue the operation here.

Moreover, in Fuzhao Valley, there happened to be a Second Rank flying boat carrying goods. Even in sects like Twin Success Valley, Second Rank flying boats were not abundant.

Now, all these resources fell into Meng Zhang's hands, becoming spoils of war for Taiyi Sect.

Regarding the captured Twin Success Valley disciples, Meng Zhang did not give them too much trouble.

Now that Twin Success Valley had been destroyed, they were all homeless. If they were willing to join Taiyi Sect, as long as they swore loyalty, they could become members of Taiyi Sect.

For those who didn't want to join Taiyi Sect, they could leave their storage bags and depart from here cleanly.

As a result, about half of them left with only the clothes on their backs, leaving this place. Perhaps these Twin Success Valley disciples still had some pride and looked down on Taiyi Sect, which was once their vassal.

The other half of the disciples agreed to join Taiyi Sect.

Meng Zhang knew that these people had no choice but to join Taiyi Sect under the circumstances and had no real loyalty to Taiyi Sect. As soon as there was a slight setback, these people would be the first to leave the sect.

However, Meng Zhang had his own plan for keeping these people.

Taiyi Sect was currently like a giant swallowing prey, having consumed a large amount of territory, and was lacking available manpower. If they were to proceed with the steady cultivation of trustworthy direct disciple descendants, it would take an unknown amount of time.

Currently, Taiyi Sect needed to seize territories, and naturally, they needed to rapidly increase the number of disciples.

Meng Zhang not only recruited a large number of loose cultivators, but also considered the scattered disciples of Twin Success Valley to be excellent candidates for recruitment. Disciples trained by sects like Twin Success Valley had a higher quality than ordinary loose cultivators and possessed great potential.

As for how to ensure their loyalty and how to use them, Meng Zhang had his own methods.
