When Jueying came to Taiyimen to visit Meng Zhang before, she also met the Houtu God General giving a lecture.
Jueying has an extraordinary background, and has a mysterious and powerful master like Luo Ye. Her vision and knowledge are first-rate.
After listening to General Houtu’s lecture, he was also full of praise.
Jueying told Meng Zhang that she did not expect that Taiyi Sect also had such an expert. However, his cultivation in the Qi Refining Stage and his understanding of Taoism surpassed many monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Jueying doesn’t know the origin of General Houtu, but he just thinks that the Taiyi Sect has a profound background. It is indeed a great sect originating from the Middle-earth continent. It has declined to such an extent, and there are still such figures in the sect.
Of course Meng Zhang would not explain in detail the origin of the Houtu God General, and he only expressed a few words of modesty about Jueying.
Jueying took the initiative to communicate with Houtu God General several times, and she benefited a lot every time.
Jueying rested one night at Taiyimen. Early the next morning, it was the time when General Houtu gave a routine lecture to the disciples of the Taiyi Sect.
Meng Zhang and Jueying came to the small square in front of the sect hall early and sat cross-legged on the futon on the ground.
The number of Taiyi Sect disciples is increasing day by day, but not everyone is qualified to listen to General Houtu’s lectures.
Those disciples that Meng Zhang didn’t trust, and the undercover agents sent by other sects, had long been sent outside by Meng Zhang to do some hard work. They rarely even stepped into the Taiyi Sect’s mountain gate once.
Before General Houtu arrived, almost all the disciples who were free in the door gathered in the small square.
The belatedly arrived Houtu God General sat directly on the high platform in front of him and went straight to the topic without any nonsense.
What he talked about this time was exactly the methods and related experiences used by monks in the Qi Refining Stage to break through obstacles and bottlenecks.
Everyone in the audience was mesmerized and immersed in it.
Even monks like Meng Zhang, who has already broken through to the late stage of Qi refining and will not have any bottlenecks before establishing the foundation, can gain a lot from this lecture.
Houtu God General spoke for more than an hour before ending his lecture.
After waiting for a period of time for the disciples below to digest and understand, God General Houtu randomly selected a few more disciples to accept their questions.
After answering the questions of these disciples in detail, God General Houtu ended the lecture while everyone was reluctant to leave.
After God General Houtu left, even Meng Zhang and Jueying, who had the highest cultivation level, did not leave immediately, but slowly recalled what they had just heard.
After a while, Jueying said to Meng Zhang: “The disciples of Taiyi Sect are really lucky to have this master Houtu to answer their questions and explain the Taoism.”
Meng Zhang nodded in approval. The current God General Houtu is nominally the protector of the Taiyi Sect, but in fact he has long been the chief instructor of the Taiyi Sect and also serves as the elder who teaches martial arts.
After listening to God General Houtu’s lecture, Jueying was also ready to leave Taiyi Sect.
Meng Zhang happened to be on his way to Huojingfang City for business. Anyway, he was on his way, so he went on the road with her and rode his flying mount.
This black crane is tall and unusually tall. With its wings spread out, it exceeds three feet.
Meng Zhang and Jueying lightly jumped onto Heihe’s broad back, and sat down side by side, with plenty of space.
After loading the two people, Heihe spread his wings gently and easily flew high into the sky, flying towards Huojingfang City.
The sharp cold wind from high in the sky rushed towards them, refreshing the spirits of the two cultivators who were immune to the cold and heat.
Neither of them are talkative people. After they set off on the road, they didn’t chat for a few words before falling into an awkward silence.
Huojingfang City is about two thousand miles away from Taiyimen. With the speed of this black crane, it can be reached in half a day.
Meng Zhang went to Huojingfang City this time to ask the weapon refiner from Dihuo Sect to refine a set of combined magic weapons.
As Taiyi Sect’s income increased significantly, life became more and more relaxed, and a lot of surplus gradually came into existence.
Meng Zhang is not a miser, and the spiritual stone is of no use in the warehouse. He decided to create this set of combined magic weapons to enhance the combat effectiveness of his disciples.
This set of combined magic weapons is the inheritance that Meng Zhang obtained from the place of trial. The entire set of magical instruments consists of multiple magical instruments.
Many disciples in the sect hold magical weapons respectively, and if they form a special formation according to the inheritance, they can play a huge role.
This set of combined magic weapons is a simplified version of war magic weapons. It can be used in group battles between cultivating forces, or it can also allow disciples to join forces to fight against powerful monks.
Heihe is very fast. Even if he carries two people on his back, his speed will not be affected at all.
After a long time, Meng Zhang felt that the two people had been so silent and the atmosphere was too awkward. He was about to say something and was thinking about what topic to use.
“Look, there seems to be monsters below that are attacking humans.” Jueying said loudly.
While she was speaking, Heihe also stopped moving and just stopped in the air.
After hearing this, Meng Zhang quickly looked down.
Although they were hundreds of feet high in the sky, the two people who practiced the pupil technique could still see clearly what was happening on the ground below.
More than a hundred monsters, arsenosand lizards, surrounded a human team and were attacking fiercely.
The human team was mostly a caravan traveling in the desert, driving ten sand lizards and camel beasts, and was guarded by dozens of cultivators.
The arsenic sand lizard is a ferocious beast in the endless sand sea, and it is a very difficult monster to deal with.
The arsenic sand lizard has a strong physical body, sharp claws, and is also talented in earth spells. Ordinary poisonous sand lizards can cast spells to create stone armor to protect themselves, and can also cast spells such as flying sand spells and ground stab spells.
What is particularly annoying is that, as the name suggests, the arsenosand lizard can also attack with poison. Spewing venom and rolling up poisonous sand are commonplace. Once a cultivator is infected, it is difficult to get rid of the poison.
“Strange, why are there so many arsenosand lizards here?” Meng Zhang muttered to himself.
The nearby area is a desolate desert with no grass growing. Even ordinary beasts are rare, let alone monster beasts.
As for the occurrence of groups of monsters and beasts besieging human cultivators, this is unprecedented.
No matter where these monsters came from, since Meng Zhang encountered them, Meng Zhang would certainly take action.
As a human cultivator, it is racial justice to help fellow humans fight against monsters.
What’s more, Meng Zhang saw a familiar old man among the human cultivators below. It was Xu Chengxian, the head of Linshan Sect.
Although I don’t know why Xu Chengxian appeared here and why he was besieged by monsters, Xu Chengxian’s advice did help Meng Zhang a lot last time. It gave Meng Zhang the idea to contact Shan Ying in Shuangfeng Valley and use Shuangfeng Gu’s power suppressed the aggressive Zhao family.
Meng Zhang believed that he owed Xu Chengxian a favor, and now that he encountered something like this, it was an opportunity to repay the favor.
