The Qiaoshou Sect and the Golden Knife Sect have been in alliance for many years and have always had a close relationship.

The two families cooperated tacitly and took advantage of the vacancy after the demise of Shuangfeng Valley to harvest the richest fruits. Even the Taiyi Sect under the leadership of Meng Zhang had to shun the two sects after joining forces.

But any alliance relationship must be based on relative equality between both parties.

If you want to have equal status in the world of cultivation, there shouldn't be too much difference in strength.

Aunt Jin from the Qiaoshou Sect was already in the middle stage of foundation building, and was already above Ruan Dadao. However, because the disciples of the Jindao Sect were fierce and brave in fighting, while the female monks of the Qiaoshou Sect were mostly good at production, their combat effectiveness was slightly weaker.

.Only two sects can maintain equal status.

Now that Qiaoshou Sect has an additional foundation-building monk, the strength of the two sects has greatly increased.

Will the alliance between the two sects still be so stable in the future?

Meng Zhang began to wonder if there was any opportunity to break up the alliance between the two families.

Although facing strong pressure from the outside world, the four sects are still united and can maintain a good cooperative relationship. But in Meng Zhang's heart, he has always had a deep fear of the alliance between the Qiaoshou Sect and the Golden Knife Sect.

.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be rushed, and you need to look for opportunities slowly.

Guests from all walks of life arrived one after another.

In fact, the guests were only three sects in the surrounding area and four in Mingshafang City. Compared with the grand occasion of the Linshan Sect Lin Shenpo's foundation-building ceremony, it was far behind.

Even Meng Zhang, who was young, felt a sense of right and wrong in his heart. In just a few years, the surrounding situation has changed greatly. Many familiar faces have disappeared.

At this time, Aunt Jin and Aunt Jin Qi, two skilled craftsmen who built the foundation, also came out to receive guests from all walks of life.

When facing Jin Qigu, Ruan Dadao's face was obviously a little unnatural.

A junior whom he had known for many years suddenly had almost the same status as himself, but the disciple whom his family had high hopes for failed to build his foundation.

Even though Jin Qigu's attitude was still respectful, Ruan Dadao still felt very uncomfortable.

Lin Shenpo from Linshan Sect, Gu Tanghai from Mingshafang City, and Meng Zhang from Taiyi Sect sincerely congratulated Jin Qigu for establishing the foundation. No matter what, the strength of their small group is always increasing.

A good thing.

In addition to the interactions between several foundation-building monks, younger generation disciples from various sects also appeared one after another.

As the landlord, the Qiaoshou sect has the largest number of disciples. The other sects can follow the elders in the foundation building stage to participate in the Dharma assembly, and they are also the next generation of elites who are highly valued within the sect.

Meng Zhang secretly used his Dharma Eyes to Destroy Illusions and carefully observed the younger disciples of each sect.

The young disciples of the Linshan Sect are quite decent, neither good nor bad, and they are worthy of a foundation-building sect like the Linshan Sect.

There are only two members of the Shi family brought by Gu Tanghai, and their qualifications are average.

The Golden Sword Sect has the largest number of disciples, and their cultivation levels are also very strong, and there are many people who are at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

However, after Meng Zhang's observation, these people have mediocre qualifications and only rely on long-term accumulation to slowly improve their cultivation. These people have limited future prospects and it is difficult to build a foundation.

On the other hand, there are quite a few good disciples in the Qiaoshou Sect. Especially a female disciple named Jin Qiaoer, who is extremely intelligent, has a reserved divine light, and is very extraordinary.

Meng Zhang judged that this woman had at least a middle-grade spiritual root or above, and she should have some kind of special talent.

Jin Qiaoer was about fourteen or fifteen years old, lively, innocent, cheerful and outgoing. Not only Aunt Jin and Aunt Jin Qi loved him very much, but other disciples in the sect also doted on her.

The disciples from various sects who came to visit were also very willing to get close to Jin Qiaoer. However, Yang Xueyi from the Taiyi Sect was a little respectful of her.

The disciples knew each other and communicated with each other. Several foundation-building monks gathered together to discuss business matters.

Several factions started planning a few years ago to open up trade routes and open up routes to the Jiuqu League. Now, each faction is almost ready.

After some discussion, a few people decided on a date to set off.

Two months later, everyone formed a caravan and hit the road together.

After the business talk is over, the next step is the communication between the various sects.

The next day, Jin Qigu opened a forum to give a lecture and publicly preached some ways of spiritual practice.

After listening to it for a while, Meng Zhang found it boring.

First of all, he has now established a foundation and has a deeper understanding of the principles taught by Jin Qigu.

Secondly, Jin Qigu is a rather stingy woman, and what she talks about does not contain much practical content, but is mostly empty talk.

The group of Qi-refining period disciples sitting below, after listening to a lot of mysterious and boring truths, felt a little unclear. Even those with the highest understanding gained very little.

After Jin Qigu opened the forum to teach the Dharma, several guests did not stay too long and went home. They were about to leave for a long distance, and each of them had a lot of things to arrange.

As the day of departure approached, Meng Zhang made some arrangements for the affairs of the family.

When he is not at the door, as usual, the general secretary Chang Tianzhen handles daily affairs, and the Houtu God will be responsible for emergencies.

The disciples in the sect basically all have their own duties, so Meng Zhang doesn't need to worry.

Li Xuan, the foreign affairs elder, and Yang Xueyi, the master of Fu Hall, went on the road with Meng Zhang. Wen Qiansuan, who had just broken through the seventh level of Qi refining not long ago, also wanted to go out for a walk, and Meng Zhang also took him with him. There were also more than ten disciples,

Responsible for various chores on the road.

Storage bags one after another were sent into the cabin of the second-order spacecraft.

These storage bags are filled with various materials for sale by Taiyi Sect, mainly various minerals.

Ever since he decided to go to Jiuqu League to trade, in the past two years, Meng Zhang had ordered all-out exploration of all the mines he owned.

In addition to all the Baizang soil mines supplying Linquanguan, a lot of various minerals such as red copper ore, black iron ore, and Qianchen sand have been accumulated.

The most precious among them is the Xunfeng stone produced in Mingsha Mountain.

Gu Tanghai was very capable and resumed production in the Mingsha Mountain mines in a short period of time. I don’t know where he found so many monks to work hard to mine Xunfeng stones from the mines.

According to the original agreement, Taiyi Sect can also get a large share of it.

After several years of accumulation, the quantity is quite considerable.

Another precious spiritual material is a large amount of warm jade.

When Meng Zhang stayed at Zaoxiang Oasis, he went out many times to sweep away scattered cultivators.

Not far from Zaoxiang Oasis, a warm jade mine originally belonging to Shuangfeng Valley was discovered.

The warm jade produced by this warm jade mine is of high quality and was an important source of wealth for Shuangfeng Valley.

After discovering this place, Meng Zhang occupied it without hesitation. Regardless of the manpower shortage in the sect, he dispatched a large number of disciples in the sect and organized large-scale mining.

After the mined warm jade is transported to Zaoxiang Oasis, it is regularly sent back to Taiyi Gate via flying boat.
