Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Meng Zhang and Extreme Sword Spirit General had originally selected a different type of dao soldier template to make up for the Yellow Earth Strongman's shortcomings and complement their use. However, due to the Soldier Nest's production speed, they were unable to produce anything else while producing Yellow Earth Strongmen at full capacity, so they had to temporarily shelve the other type of dao soldier.

Within a year of the Soldier Nest's production, they had accumulated more than twenty Second Rank Yellow Earth Strongmen. Although these Yellow Earth Strongmen were lifeless puppets, they still possessed some spirituality and were more intelligent than ordinary cats and dogs.

During their creation, these Yellow Earth Strongmen were imbued with combat instincts and infused with a lot of combat experience. Once they were created, they would unconditionally obey the commands of the Soldier Nest's master, Meng Zhang.

With Meng Zhang's permission, Taiyi Sect disciples only needed to squeeze a few drops of blood onto the Yellow Earth Strongman and recite a few incantations to establish a simple blood contract and gain control over these Yellow Earth Strongmen.

Some Taiyi Sect disciples who had rotated from the front lines began practicing how to control these Yellow Earth Strongmen and how to coordinate their combat with them. After they finished their rest and recuperation, these Taiyi Sect disciples returned to the battlefield with their assigned Yellow Earth Strongmen, and the casualties of Taiyi Sect disciples began to decrease with the use of these disposable troops.

The low cost and ease of production made the Yellow Earth Strongman surpass talismans, puppets, and demon pets, becoming the preferred choice of many Taiyi Sect disciples. As more and more Yellow Earth Strongmen were created, they became the servants of Taiyi Sect disciples and joined them on the battlefield.

Cultivators from Fire Cloud Sect and Yellow Lotus Sect East River Branch soon noticed the changes in Taiyi Sect disciples and even fought against Yellow Earth Strongmen. Although the sudden appearance of the Yellow Earth Strongmen surprised them, it did not shock them. There were countless similar puppets and servants in the Cultivation World, and it was difficult to say how many types of them there were.

However, one thing was the same: whether they were self-made or purchased from the outside, they all had costs. They did not believe that Taiyi Sect, such a young sect, could have so much accumulation to consume.

In fact, with the Soldier Nest's production speed, the Yellow Earth Strongmen produced could not keep up with the consumption on the battlefield. However, their replenishment on the battlefield never stopped, and their numbers far exceeded the enemy's expectations.

While Meng Zhang was busy using the Soldier Nest to produce Yellow Earth Strongmen, two Taiyi Sect cultivators who had been closed-door in preparation for the Gold Core stage came out of seclusion one after another. Elder Hu Jing, who was proficient in animal husbandry, successfully formed her core and became another Gold Core Daoist Master of Taiyi Sect. The War Hall's master, Elder Zheng Chao, who was brave and adept in battle, failed to form his core and was slightly injured in the process.

Forming a core was always an unpredictable thing, and even if everything was prepared in advance and all the conditions were mature, it was still impossible to achieve a 100% success rate. Everyone in Taiyi Sect actually had higher hopes for Zheng Chao and believed that his chances of success in forming a core were much greater than Hu Jing's.

Unexpectedly, it was the other way around in the end. Fortunately, those who were combative usually had strong willpower and were not easily discouraged or defeated. Zheng Chao's failure to form his core this time did not make him depressed or give up completely. He still had confidence in the Dao path and had enough ambition to attempt to form his core again.

At least half of Elder Hu Jing's abilities were on her demon pets, even after forming her core. She focused on consolidating her cultivation base and finding ways to enhance her demon pets' combat power. After spending some time recovering his energy, Elder Zheng Chao did not rush to form his core again but decided to settle down for a while and fully absorb the lessons of his failure.

After hearing about the brutal battle situation on the front lines, he couldn't sit still and took the initiative to request to join the fight from Meng Zhang. Knowing that he couldn't stop him, Meng Zhang readily agreed to his request and even prepared several Second Rank Yellow Earth Strongmen for him before he left.

The war between Taiyi Sect, Flying Swan Sect, Fire Cloud Sect, and Yellow Lotus Sect East River Branch had turned into a protracted battle, and both sides were completely mired in the quagmire of war and unable to extricate themselves in the short term. Although the fighting was intense and bloody, the scale of the war was always deliberately controlled by both sides and did not easily escalate.

In the border areas of both sides,scuffles and small-scale battles still occurred frequently, but they were incomparable to the large-scale battles that occurred in the main battlefield. Both sides were trying to weaken each other's strength and morale, but at the same time, they were also afraid of losing too much of their own strength.

As time passed, both sides had gradually become exhausted and their strength had been consumed to a certain extent. However, neither side was willing to easily admit defeat or withdraw from the war.

At this time, a sudden change occurred on the Taiyi Sect's side. Meng Zhang, who had been overseeing the production of Yellow Earth Strongmen, suddenly disappeared without a trace. The Taiyi Sect disciples who were responsible for managing the Soldier Nest were also missing.

At first, the Taiyi Sect disciples thought that Meng Zhang and the others had gone out to deal with some urgent matter, but after a few days, they still did not return. Taiyi Sect's Sect Master, Elder Hong, became anxious and ordered a search for them.

After searching for a while, Taiyi Sect finally found Meng Zhang and the others in a secret underground chamber. To their surprise, they found that Meng Zhang had successfully created a new type of dao soldier, which was completely different from the Yellow Earth Strongmen.

This new type of dao soldier was called the "True Monarch with no Shadow". It was a humanoid puppet that was about two meters tall and was made entirely of a special metal that was extremely durable and had a faint golden glow.

The True Monarch with no Shadow was not only much stronger than the Yellow Earth Strongmen, but it also had a much higher level of intelligence and combat ability. Unlike the Yellow Earth Strongmen, which were disposable troops, the True Monarch with no Shadow could be reused and repaired after being damaged.

The Taiyi Sect disciples were amazed by the True Monarch with no Shadow and couldn't help but admire Meng Zhang's talent and ability. However, they also couldn't help but worry about the cost of producing such a powerful dao soldier.

Meng Zhang smiled and said that he had found a way to solve this problem. He had discovered a special type of metal vein deep underground that contained a large amount of the special metal used to create the True Monarch with no Shadow. With the help of the Soldier Nest, they could easily mine and refine this metal, greatly reducing the cost of producing the True Monarch with no Shadow.

After hearing this, the Taiyi Sect disciples were overjoyed and felt that their sect's future was bright. With the True Monarch with no Shadow, Taiyi Sect's combat power would be greatly enhanced, and they would be able to turn the tide of the war.

However, Meng Zhang also warned them that the production of the True Monarch with no Shadow was still in the experimental stage and that there were still some problems that needed to be resolved. He hoped that everyone would work together to improve the True Monarch with no Shadow and make it even stronger.

With the appearance of the True Monarch with no Shadow, the situation on the battlefield began to change. Taiyi Sect's combat power had greatly increased, and they were able to gain the upper hand in many battles. However, the other sects were not willing to sit idly by and watch Taiyi Sect dominate the war. They also began to make their own preparations and come up with countermeasures.When the time came, True Monarch Tian Zhu's life and death could no longer be concealed. If Jin Li Daoist Master had not achieved his Primordial Spirit, Taiyi Sect would have to make other plans. However, unexpectedly, Meng Zhang found that crises always came unexpectedly, and Taiyi Sect did not have thirty years to spare.

One day, an old man dressed in white with a kind and peaceful face, like a friendly old neighbor, arrived in the Deadly Sea of Sand. This old man was called True Monarch Thousand Shadow, a Primordial Spirit True Monarch from the Dark Alliance.

When True Monarch Tian Zhu was entangled with the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit in the Deadly Sea of Sand, he was not disturbed much, except for True Monarch Profound Wind, who had a deep grudge against him, and the Qi Family brothers who coveted the Earth Spirit's body.

One important reason for this was that True Monarch Tian Zhu paid a great price to ask the Dark Alliance to help him block many potential opponents. Without the Dark Alliance's secret help, there would have been more opponents seeking trouble for him in the Deadly Sea of Sand.

According to the agreement between True Monarch Tian Zhu and the Dark Alliance, as long as he accepted the Dark Alliance's help, regardless of success or failure, he would have to serve the Dark Alliance for a certain number of years.

As True Monarch Tian Zhu's creditor, the Dark Alliance was naturally concerned about his success or failure. True Monarch Thousand Shadow was responsible for communicating with True Monarch Tian Zhu within the Dark Alliance.

Years ago, when the Deadly Sea of Sand underwent a great change, True Monarch Tian Zhu was first betrayed by True Monarch Mountain Peak, then he displayed his divine power and defeated all his opponents. The Dark Alliance was interested in investigating the situation and confirming True Monarch Tian Zhu's status.

However, True Monarch Thousand Shadow, who was in charge of this matter, was tied up by something and couldn't get away for a short time, so the matter was delayed.

It wasn't until recently that True Monarch Thousand Shadow was finally able to free up his hands and come to the Deadly Sea of Sand to have a good talk with True Monarch Tian Zhu.

Looking at the various visions of heaven and earth not far away and sensing the residual power of the Grand Dao, True Monarch Thousand Shadow frowned. The front was an insurmountable gap for a Gold Core Daoist Master, but it was just a little more effort for him.

True Monarch Thousand Shadow strode forward, as if walking in the air, and quickly advanced. Everywhere he passed, the residual power of the Grand Dao was easily removed, and all kinds of visions of heaven and earth began to slowly calm down.

True Monarch Thousand Shadow seemed easy, but it was actually a bit difficult for him. It took him more than an hour to reach the core of the Deadly Sea of Sand, where True Monarch Tian Zhu and the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit perished together.

He didn't need to continue forward and already knew the result. Two black holes appeared in the sky ahead, not far apart. The rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth spewed back and forth in the black holes, causing strong spiritual energy tides.

This was the phenomenon of the demise of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, and from the phenomenon, at least two Primordial Spirit True Monarch-level powerhouses had fallen.

In the Deadly Sea of Sand, could there be any other Primordial Spirit True Monarchs who died here? Moreover, one of the phenomena revealed an aura that True Monarch Thousand Shadow was very familiar with, which was clearly the aura of True Monarch Tian Zhu, who had been gone for a long time.

The other phenomenon of the demise of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch had a strange and unpredictable aura, which should belong to the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit.

If a Fifth Rank great power born in the Grand Dust World perished here, there might still be a rare phenomenon of heaven and earth mourning together. The Fifth Rank Earth Spirit was an outsider from extraterritorial void. After its complete demise, it couldn't trigger the phenomenon of heaven and earth mourning together, at most, it would only cause the phenomenon of the demise of the Grand Dao.

Looking at the two phenomena of the demise of the Primordial Spirit True Monarchs ahead, True Monarch Thousand Shadow imagined the general process of the matter.

When True Monarch Tian Zhu reached an agreement with the Dark Alliance, many people in the Dark Alliance did not look favorably upon him, thinking that he was probably wasting his effort. However, it was unexpected that True Monarch Tian Zhu and the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit would perish together, which was beyond True Monarch Thousand Shadow's expectations.

With True Monarch Tian Zhu's death, the Dark Alliance's investment in him was all for naught, and the Dark Alliance had suffered a great loss this time.

Without sayinga word, True Monarch Thousand Shadow turned around and left the Deadly Sea of Sand, his expression calm and peaceful as if nothing had happened. In fact, he had already made up his mind to report the matter to the Dark Alliance and ask for instructions.

The Dark Alliance was a powerful force that existed in the shadows of the Grand Dust World, and its members were all Primordial Spirit True Monarchs. It had a strict hierarchical structure, and True Monarch Thousand Shadow was just a member of the lowest level.

However, as a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, he had a strong sense of responsibility to the Dark Alliance and would never allow any loss to the Dark Alliance's interests.

After True Monarch Thousand Shadow left, the Deadly Sea of Sand returned to its usual calm. The residual power of the Grand Dao dissipated, and the visions of heaven and earth disappeared without a trace.

The Qi Family brothers and True Monarch Profound Wind who were still waiting nearby were shocked by the sudden changes, and they couldn't help but be a little afraid. They had never expected that True Monarch Tian Zhu's death would cause such a big disturbance.

As for the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit, it was already completely gone. Its body had turned into sand and dispersed in the wind, leaving no trace behind.

The only thing left was the two black holes in the sky, which were gradually closing. The aura of True Monarch Tian Zhu and the Fifth Rank Earth Spirit had completely dissipated, and everything had returned to silence.

Meng Zhang, who had been observing from afar, quietly left the area, not wanting to attract any attention. He knew that the situation was beyond his control, and he had no choice but to wait and see what would happen next.
