Chapter 360: Sends out the reinforcements
ALL NOVELS' LIST | Chapter List: Sect Master's Immortal Journey
Meng Zhang discussed with the elders in the sect and sent out the first batch of reinforcements.
The reinforcements were led by Shocking Thunder Spirit General, Wen Qiansun and Yang Xueyi, three Foundation Building cultivators, who led over a hundred Qi Refining stage disciples into battle.
In addition to the disciples of Taiyi Sect, there were also disciples from the Shi Family.
Meng Zhang had previously established an organization called the Cooperative Society to house loose cultivators who were willing to join Taiyi Sect.
Now, the time has come for these loose cultivators to be tested.
If they fight alongside Taiyi Sect's team and perform well on the battlefield, they may have a chance to become Taiyi Sect's official disciples.
As the regional hegemon, Taiyi Sect's disciples have also gained a lot of prestige. Becoming a Taiyi Sect disciple is very attractive to many loose cultivators.
After the news that Taiyi Sect was recruiting cultivators to go on an expedition spread, the loose cultivators in the Cooperative Society flocked to sign up and volunteered to go to war.
After careful selection, Meng Zhang selected a group of cultivators with good strength.
In addition, the three small families that had just become Taiyi Sect's vassals also sent a few disciples to fight, which was a way of showing their attitude.
After the war between Flying Swan Sect and the demon beasts began, news from the front lines gradually came back.
Although these messages were difficult to verify, they all proved the bloody nature of the war.
Meng Zhang selected a group of Qi Refining stage disciples who were at least in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and there were even some Qi Refining late stage cultivators.
Qi Refining early stage cultivators had too low a survival rate on such a battlefield, and there was no need to send them to die.
On the Qiaoshou Sect side, Jin Qigu and Jin Wengbo led a group of Qi Refining stage disciples out of the sect to meet up with Taiyi Sect.
In addition to recruiting the various cultivation sects to participate in the war, Flying Swan Sect also mobilized a large amount of war supplies.
From various mineral raw materials to finished talismans, pills, and other large amounts of supplies, they were continuously transported from all over the Endless Sea of Sand to the front lines.
Of course, the cultivators who went on the expedition could not be too stingy, and at least they had to ensure that they had sufficient logistical supplies.
Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect both mobilized a large portion of war supplies for the expeditionary forces.
Flying Swan Sect was urging Meng Zhang to hurry up, and he could not delay too long.
After all the preparations were made, the joint team of Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect boarded a flying boat and left the sect to head for the front lines.
Flying Swan Sect has the supreme authority in the Endless Sea of Sand, and no sect dares to ignore Flying Swan Sect's conscription order.
Before the reinforcements from Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect left, there were already quite a few cultivation sects that had sent reinforcements to the front lines.
This is the first time that Meng Zhang, the Sect Master, has not personally led his disciples on an expedition.
However, as the sect's strength increases, this will only happen more and more often.
Meng Zhang suppressed his worries about the disciples who had gone on the expedition and turned his attention back to the sect's affairs.
Taiyi Sect had mobilized such a large force to go on an expedition, and all the affairs within the sect would be greatly affected.
The sect was short-handed, and even Meng Zhang, the Sect Master, was very busy.
Taiyi Sect and Qiaoshou Sect both needed to continue preparing more war supplies for the expeditionary forces. Moreover, the two sects now had to begin organizing the second batch of reinforcements.
Meng Zhang was very worried. If he continued to mobilize people, Taiyi Sect would not be able to maintain normal operations, and even its own territory might not be able to be defended.
However, there was no other way. If the war continued to be intense, Flying Swan Sect would definitely increase the intensity of its conscription. At that time, even Meng Zhang, the Sect Master, would have to go to the battlefield.Meng Zhang was busy with the sect's affairs that day when an old acquaintance came to the Taiyi Sect's gate and asked to meet with him.
Meng Zhang was stunned when he heard the disciple's message, and then he let the disciple bring the man to him.
Not long after, Shangguan Wen, an old friend whom Meng Zhang had not seen in a long time, appeared in front of him.
Shangguan Wen was still a Qi Refining Stage cultivator after so many years, but Meng Zhang was already a Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator.
Meng Zhang did not have a good impression of Shangguan Wen.
At first, Meng Zhang thought that Shangguan Wen was a good person and could be dealt with. However, after some things happened, the two of them did not openly break up, but they drifted apart and gradually lost contact.
Come to think of it, Meng Zhang had not heard from Shangguan Wen in a long time.
Why did he come to see him so urgently?
Shangguan Wen did not bother with pleasantries when he saw Meng Zhang. He quickly got to the point and told Meng Zhang something that made him change color.
It turned out that Shangguan Wen was able to become the Steward of Earthfire Sect's external affairs, with more power than some Foundation Establishment Stage elders, because he was a member of the Shangguan family, the previous Sect Master of Earthfire Sect.
The Shangguan family had few members, and even fewer who could cultivate. Shangguan Longyan valued every member of the family.
Shangguan Wen was a cultivator who was both talented and level-headed. He was a rare breed in Earthfire Sect, but he was highly regarded by Shangguan Longyan.
Shangguan Longyan regarded Shangguan Wen as his second self and even planned to groom him as his successor.
Shangguan Longyan ignored the private discussions of other people in the sect and promoted Shangguan Wen, giving him a lot of power.
Shangguan Wen did not disappoint Shangguan Longyan's trust. He completed all the tasks that Shangguan Longyan gave him perfectly.
In particular, after he became the Steward of Earthfire Sect's external affairs, he handled all the affairs in an orderly manner and brought a lot of benefits to Earthfire Sect.
Shangguan Wen's performance made the people in the sect who criticized Shangguan Longyan for appointing his own people and nepotism shut up, and he secured his position.
However, all of this changed when Liang Feng became the new Sect Master of Earthfire Sect.
Liang Feng had long had a grudge against Shangguan Longyan, and he was even more unkind to Shangguan Longyan's family members.
Earthfire Sect cultivators were always straightforward and did not have many twists and turns.
Not long after Liang Feng became the Sect Master, he removed Shangguan Wen from his position and sent him far away to the edge of Earthfire Sect's territory.
Without Sect Master Shangguan Longyan's protection, Shangguan Wen was just a Qi Refining Stage cultivator. How could he fight against Liang Feng?
Shangguan Wen was powerless to fight back and was expelled from Earthfire Sect's core, far away from Earthfire Sect's gate.
Although he was far away from Earthfire Sect's gate, Shangguan Wen kept an eye on the situation in Earthfire Sect.
Especially after holding power for many years, he still had some hidden forces in Earthfire Sect.
Two days ago, Shangguan Wen's hidden forces in the sect secretly passed on a shocking piece of news to him.
