Sect Master’s Immortal Journey Chapter 1821: Stalemate

Emperor Bawu and Chunyu Zhongda were only temporary allies, not people Meng Zhang truly trusted.

Therefore, every time he communicated with them, Meng Zhang actually had reservations and did not show his full strength.

But even so, the progress Meng Zhang showed still surprised them both.

Emperor Ba Wu and Chunyu Zhongda are not ordinary people.

They are also famous geniuses within the Dali Dynasty.

Ever since they were young, they have been recognized as the most talented people in the world.

They have been in high positions for many years and are well-informed. They are used to seeing all kinds of talented monks, including many so-called geniuses from the Holy Land sect.

But both themselves and the other monks they had met were somewhat overshadowed in front of Meng Zhang.

When a monk first enters the Void Returning Stage, as long as he has a good inheritance and sufficient resources, his cultivation will progress rapidly.

This is the case for Emperor Bawu and Chunyu Zhongda, their cultivation levels are improving rapidly.

However, there is still a significant gap in the speed of their progress compared to Meng Zhang.

Seeing that Meng Zhang’s combat effectiveness was rapidly improving, Emperor Bawu and Chunyu Zhongda not only had a better and better attitude towards him, but also paid more attention to him.

Unknowingly, Meng Zhang became the leader of this team.

When facing intruders from outside the territory, he is often the one giving orders and conducting command.

Meng Zhang is not only excellent in personal cultivation, but also has strong commanding ability.

He is good at observing battlefield situations, able to make wise judgments and make decisions calmly.

Since Meng Zhang took command of this team, their results may have been mediocre, but they have avoided several dangers and have not suffered serious losses.

In the blink of an eye, Meng Zhang and the others came to the void battlefield and participated in the battle against the extraterrestrial invaders. Thirty years have passed.

In the past thirty years, no major battles have broken out, but various small-scale conflicts and fierce battles have continued.

According to the usual practice of fighting between outside invaders and monks from the Junchen Realm, it won’t be long before the two sides get through this window period and a large-scale battle breaks out again.

Nearly everyone on the human monk side is mentally prepared for this.

For the large-scale battle, Meng Zhang was somewhat looking forward to it and wanted to see the big scene.

At the same time, he was also a little worried.

In a great battle in the void, the great power of returning to the void will fall at any time.

Even though the void-returning power among Taoist cultivators has stronger vitality and stronger survivability, we have already suffered a lot of casualties in the previous battles.

For such a big battle, Meng Zhang knew that he could not escape. The only thing he can do is to work hard to improve his cultivation and enhance his combat effectiveness.

Since he was refining and absorbing the Source Crystal much faster than expected, the Source Crystal in his hand was quickly consumed.

Without the source crystal, if he only relied on absorbing the Yuqing spirit machine, his cultivation speed would suddenly slow down.

Source crystal is something that is truly rare to find in the Junchen world. No matter how much it costs, it is difficult to buy it on the market.

What Meng Zhang doesn’t know is that almost all the source crystals produced in the source sea are forbidden by the immortals.

Occasionally, a small number of source crystals are collected by the Heavenly Palace and the major holy land sects. They will treat them as treasures and are reluctant to use them.

Meng Zhang didn’t expect that even after entering the Void Return Stage, his need for foreign objects would still be so strong.

In fact, even without the source crystal, just by absorbing and refining the Jade Pure Spirit Machine, his cultivation speed is already much faster than other void-returning powers.

But he was used to the speed of practice brought by the source crystal, and he was somewhat unable to adapt to the current speed of practice.

Meng Zhang also knows that he probably has no chance to enter the Source Sea again, and he doesn’t know what will happen in the Year of the Monkey if he wants to obtain the Source Crystal again.

He had to be patient and slowly adapt to the slower pace of practice.

These days continued for several more years.

The great battle between the cultivators of the Junchen Realm and the invaders from outside the realm actually never broke out.

The two sides fell into a relatively stable stalemate.

For this, Meng Zhang and the three of them all dreamed of it.

They are not war-fearing people, but they are also not warlike fanatics.

If a large-scale battle does not break out, their safety will be maintained to a certain extent, and they will be able to have enough time to practice and steadily improve their cultivation.

As pawns, Meng Zhang and the others can ignore the overall situation and ignore this unusual situation.

But as the commanders, the top human cultivators cannot ignore it.

They wanted to find out why the various extraterritorial invaders did not follow the usual practice of launching a full-scale attack on the human monks in Junchen Realm and triggering a large-scale battle.

Is it because there were heavy casualties in the previous battle and they have not recovered yet?

Or are the extraterritorial invaders having ulterior motives and secretly engaging in some conspiracy?

In order to figure out the enemy’s layout and plot, the human cultivators in Junchen Realm also organized reconnaissance teams to sneak into the vicinity of the enemy’s camp for observation.

These reconnaissance teams are basically all veteran Void-Returning Powers, or well-known figures in Void-Returning Powers.

Meng Zhang and the others are no longer newbies in the realm of returning to the void, but their immediate boss, Cold War Shangzun, does not have high expectations for their combat effectiveness.

In the Cold War, it was fair to respect others and did not let Meng Zhang and the others, who lacked strength, carry out such a dangerous mission.

Of course, this is also because after Meng Zhang and the others were stationed at the stronghold, they rarely returned to their own camp except for returning regularly to collect supplies.

On weekdays, they don’t have many opportunities to see the cold war master. The cold war master naturally doesn’t know their cultivation progress and the latest cultivation situation.

Otherwise, with Meng Zhang’s true strength, he would be barely qualified to participate in such a dangerous action.

Of course, even though they were not assigned to participate in the reconnaissance operation of sneaking into the enemy’s rear, Cold War Master did not leave Meng Zhang and the others idle.

According to the orders of the Cold War Master, the monks stationed at the forward strongholds like Meng Zhang and others must take the initiative to launch exploratory attacks on the enemy and try to understand the enemy’s layout.

The cold war master did not make things difficult for them monks, the main thing was to ask them to act within their capabilities.

Since the mission objectives are not strict, Meng Zhang and the others must of course actively implement them.

After a long rest, Meng Zhang led Emperor Bawu and the others to leave the garrison and tentatively flew towards the void ahead.

A large part of the outer area of ​​this huge meteorite belt surrounding Junchen Realm has been lost and has fallen into the hands of outside invaders.

Meng Zhang and the others are quite familiar with the situation in these areas.

In addition to having detailed maps issued by Tiangong, they also had the experience of entering these fallen areas in previous battles.
