Chapter 1744 Gathering
The major holy land sects in Junchen Realm are not monolithic.
There are a lot of overt and covert fights between each other, and even those sects that seem to have a good relationship may secretly do evil things to each other.
Especially as the sleeping immortals are about to wake up, the relationship between the major holy land sects is deteriorating day by day, conflicts are increasing, and even many tacit understandings in the past are beginning to be broken.
If it weren't for the Heavenly Palace watching from above and the inertia over the years, some sects in the Holy Land might have started to fight each other.
Since Taiyi Sect is the enemy of Ziyang Holy Sect, it can definitely gain support from some other Holy Land sects.
Of course, Meng Zhang also did not want to get involved in the disputes between the Holy Land sects and did not rush to contact the rival sects of the Ziyang Holy Sect.
According to Meng Zhang's knowledge, the Beast Control Sect is notoriously easy-going among several Holy Land sects. It has always remained neutral in various disputes and rarely directly conflicts with other Holy Land sects.
From this point alone, the Beast Control Sect is a good partner to deal with.
Meng Zhang secretly thought about what kind of opportunity he should find to contact the senior officials of the Beast Control Sect and express his goodwill.
The last time Meng Zhang acted with everyone here, he was still a Yang Shen stage monk.
The years apart were not long, and Meng Zhang actually became a great master in the Void Return Stage.
All the monks present showed respect to him.
Everyone can guess that the reason why Meng Zhang advanced so quickly was because he captured the Baijia Fruit last time.
Zhenjun Yiqi, who also participated in this operation, was filled with jealousy and hatred in his heart.
In fact, even if Meng Zhang did not refine the Baijia Fruit, he could still advance to the Void Return Stage.
Baijiaguo just saved his time and allowed him to advance hundreds of years in advance.
It's a pity that some people can't see this clearly, and even think that Meng Zhang has taken away the opportunity that belongs to him.
Looking at the people with different thoughts, Meng Zhang had a gentle attitude, a smile on his face, and greeted everyone politely.
In the following battle against the Sea Clan in the West Sea, these monks in front of us are the backbone, and this is when their efforts are needed.
In any case, with Meng Zhang, a powerful figure in the Void Return Stage, in charge, everyone felt much more at ease.
As aid from all sides arrived one after another at the Star Luo Islands, powerful Void Returners began to gather.
Taoist Yangji from the Purple Sun Sect, Old Monster from the West Sea, and Taoist Sister Jade Butterfly from the Beast Control Sect, all came to the Xingluo Islands one after another.
Together with Meng Zhang, who came first, a total of four void-returning masters gathered in Xingluo Islands this time, which shows that the top management of Tiangong attaches great importance to this aspect of the operation.
Among them, except for Meng Zhang, who is a new Void Returning Power, the other three are veteran Void Returning Powers. They have been fighting in the void outside the territory for many years and are famous.
The old feud between Taoist Yangji and the old monster from Xihai has not ended yet.
After Ban Xue Jianjun came out of seclusion, he didn't bother to argue and directly let the two of them participate in the action of conquering the Xihai Hai clan, which was regarded as meritorious service.
Considering the relationship between Ziyang Shengzong and Xingluo Islands, Tiangong first arranged for Meng Zhang to come over, which was regarded as a relaxation in the process.
Later, it occurred to me that Meng Zhang's cultivation and qualifications could not suppress Taoist Yangji, so Aunt Yudie from the Beast Control Sect was also sent over.
Taoist Aunt Yudie hates evil, is upright, and always takes the overall situation into consideration.
When he saw that even the Holy Land sects' Void Returning Powers had been dispatched, Meng Zhang knew that all the Holy Land sects had put in a lot of effort in this cleaning operation.
After the news of the arrival of the four Void-Returning Powers spread, the hearts of the entire Star Luo Islands were at peace.
The morale that had dropped due to the last war was quickly revived.
Taoist Yangji was very arrogant. Apart from talking to Taoist Sister Yudie, he ignored the junior Meng Zhang at all.
The old monster of Xihai is a casual cultivator, he is smooth and good at maneuvering according to the wind.
Back then, he secretly cultivated the Qiu brothers in order to seize the Jiazi tree demon's ten thousand-year-old tree heart.
Later, he was easily bribed by Yangji Taoist and gave up his support for the Qiu brothers.
This time he revisited his hometown and saw the Qiu brothers again. He didn't feel embarrassed at all.
Facing the junior Meng Zhang, he did not put on airs and could chat with Meng Zhang for a few words.
Taoist Aunt Yudie is serious and unsmiling.
When meeting other people you don't know well, you maintain a minimum of etiquette, but there is no intention of in-depth communication.
However, after meeting Meng Zhang, Taoist Aunt Yudie was somewhat curious about such a young master in the Void Return Stage.
Before coming here, Taoist Sister Yudie also knew the backgrounds of several of her companions.
Meng Zhang's status as the leader of the Taiyi Sect is nothing, but as a member of the Tianlei Shangzun line, he needs to be taken seriously.
Taoist Aunt Yudie had a conversation with Meng Zhang and exchanged their views on this battle.
Meng Zhang is quite familiar with the situation of the Xingluo Islands and the Xihai Sea Clan.
Meng Zhang did not hide his secrets and expressed many valuable opinions.
There are four powerful Void Returners gathered in the Xingluo Islands, but it is the Qiu family brothers who are nominally commanding the army.
No matter what the Qiu brothers think in their hearts, they still have to maintain enough respect for the powerful Void Returners.
You must listen to their opinions before taking action.
Shortly after Yangji Taoist arrived at the Xingluo Islands, he urged the Qiu brothers to dispatch immediately, lead an army of monks to the West Sea, and take the initiative to find the Hai Clan for a decisive battle.
With the current strength of the Xingluo Islands, except for the four void-returning powers who cannot be easily attacked, they have more than enough to protect themselves but not enough to make progress.
The Qiu brothers knew that Yangji Taoist was not well-intentioned, but they could not argue with him, so they could only find ways to delay the dispute.
Taoist Yangji was not that easy to fool, and he almost reported to Tiangong, saying that the Qiu brothers were afraid of fighting and avoided fighting.
Meng Zhang is a monk who has a strong sense of the overall situation and sincerely hopes that this cleanup operation against the Hai Clan will succeed.
Meng Zhang looked down upon Yangji Taoist's practices.
The so-called Holy Land sects are all a bunch of people like this, which really makes Meng Zhang feel sick to his stomach.
Meng Zhang spoke up to defend the Qiu brothers, but was attacked by Yangji Taoist priests.
After a heated exchange of words, the two lost their temper and began to quarrel.
On the surface, the old monster from the West Sea is trying to stop the fight, but secretly he is fanning the flames and sowing dissension.
In the end, Taoist Aunt Yudie couldn't stand it and tried to persuade her, thus preventing the conflict from escalating.
Not to mention Meng Zhang, even Yangji Taoist priests were quite afraid of Taoist Sister Yudie of the Beast Control Sect and had to give her some face.
The quarrel between Meng Zhang and Yangji Taoist bought more time for the Qiu brothers.
People and materials from the mainland are continuously gathering towards the Star Luo Islands.
After clearing away the demonic cultivators in the territory, the Great Li Dynasty also actively provided support to the Star Luo Islands.
Meng Zhang's old acquaintance Han Yao, the Five Punishing Swordsman, led a large army on a flying boat and arrived at the Xingluo Islands from the territory of the Dali Dynasty.
