Chapter 618: Escaping

Chapter 618: Escaping

Taiyi Sect hasn't been able to accumulate vast resources, and there is an important reason for this, which is Meng Zhang's attitude problem. Meng Zhang is not a miser, nor does he have the attributes of a hoarder. The current Taiyi Sect is rapidly developing, but it has not yet reached the time to plan for the future and enhance the accumulation of the sect. Instead of letting various cultivation resources rot away in the storage, it's better to provide them to the disciples to cultivate more outstanding individuals. If it weren't for considering the future of the sect, Meng Zhang would have wanted to distribute all the cultivation resources to the disciples to help them digest quickly. Especially resources like spiritual stones, they need to be invested to generate more wealth and earn more spiritual stones.

Since Taiyi Sect joined the Jiuqu League, the trading environment has been improving. Under Meng Zhang's guidance, the entire sect has invested a significant amount of resources to build a commercial network. The vast market of the Jiuqu League, as long as they penetrate it and establish a foothold, even if there are no immediate returns and continuous losses, there will come a day when they can reap massive profits.

Meng Zhang and the other three people didn't utter a word, but they hastened to collect various resources from the treasure vault. With so many things, the storage magic tools they carried could only take a small portion of them. Therefore, they had to choose carefully and take the most valuable items with them.

After a while, the storage magic tools of the four were nearly full. Suddenly, Meng Zhang felt something and said, "It's about time; if we don't leave now, we won't be able to get out." As Meng Zhang had enough authority, the other three trusted his judgment. If he said it was time to leave, they naturally couldn't stay here any longer. They didn't bother with the scattered cultivation resources on the ground and left directly.

Meng Zhang took out a jade token, recited an incantation, and escorted everyone outside of space. As they looked at the slowly closing spatial portal, Meng Zhang and Extreme Sword Spirit General exchanged glances and almost simultaneously took action.

Meng Zhang first threw the jade token, followed the connection between the space and the token, and activated the Deception Breaking Eye to accurately locate the weakest point in the independent space. The Spiritsnake Spear shot out like lightning, repeatedly damaging the foundation of the space. Extreme Sword Spirit General's index and middle fingers merged in his right hand, and he shot out more than ten extremely sharp sword qi, easily piercing through the spatial barrier, riddling the independent space with holes.

Finally, Meng Zhang gently tossed two thunderballs from Jin Li True Monarch into the closing spatial portal. After two muffled sounds, the foundation of the independent space was completely destroyed. The space that could have held for ten to thirty years collapsed rapidly, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Meng Zhang didn't care about that independent space anymore; he led everyone along the underground river downstream. Along the way, he summoned ten Yellow Earth Strongmen. These Second Rank Yellow Earth Strongmen not only had the combat power of the Foundation Building stage but were also proficient in earth-based spells. They were carefully selected from the dao soldiers trained by Soldier Nest before Meng Zhang left Taiyi Sect.

Although peace had been restored around Taiyi Sect, many disciples in the sect had experienced the benefits of using Yellow Earth Strongmen during the war. Even after the war, many disciples still clamored to exchange for Yellow Earth Strongmen, despite the increased threshold set by the sect. Meng Zhang made arrangements so that not all Yellow Earth Strongmen could be exchanged; Soldier Nest had to accumulate a batch of Yellow Earth Strongmen for future use.

Meng Zhang released ten Second Rank Earth Escape Spell talismans to empower the Yellow Earth Strongmen. These talismans, combined with the natural proficiency of Yellow Earth Strongmen in earth-based spells, made them feel like fish in water while moving through the earth.

The Demonic Cultivation that came to Lake-Blue City was a familiar acquaintance of Barbarian King Sha Le Hai. Although the opponent was only a Gold Core Demonic Cultivator, Sha Le Hai still treated him with great importance and personally received him, a gesture of the highest level of respect.

After their meeting, the Demonic Cultivator proposed to learn and witness the Divine Ability secret techniques of the Barbarian Clan. When it comes to combat, no Barbarian Clan would refuse. To save face, Sha Le Hai decided to suppress a large part of his Cultivation Base and only fight with one hand against the Demonic Cultivator, despite the difference in their realms.

The Demonic Cultivator's methods were indeed peculiar. Despite the difference in their Cultivation Base realms, Sha Le Hai was still somewhat impressed by the Demonic Cultivator's Divine Ability.

During the battle, Meng Zhang and his group were escaping, and when Sha Le Hai sensed the spatial fluctuations, Meng Zhang and the others had already begun their escape. This caused some chaos in Lake-Blue City's vicinity, especially as the spatial fluctuations from afar grew increasingly intense.

Sha Le Hai was not someone who valued his pride more than anything else. In his eyes, substance was more important than face. He released a powerful aura, attempting to deter the hidden enemies.

While his subordinates dealt with the chaos, Sha Le Hai made a decision. He chose to stay and stabilize the collapsing independent space, rather than going after the intruders outside. The wealth within the treasury could be of use to the Barbarian Clan, which often suffered from shortages despite the rich resources of the Yuan Tu Great Prairie. If the space completely collapsed, the resources inside would be buried in the turbulent flow, making it difficult even for the Barbarian King to retrieve them.

Meanwhile, on the ground, Meng Zhang took out various prepared items, and Luo Ye Daoist Master and Jue Ying Daoist Master also used their hidden cards to help them escape. The Four of them managed to flee Lake-Blue City and avoided the Barbarian Clan's pursuit only after taking a long and winding route.

At this point, Meng Zhang was supposed to bring the bead back to Daoist Master Black Fox as per their agreement. However, Meng Zhang had already obtained many high-quality Void Nether Stones from the treasury, and Luo Ye Daoist Master had taken the bead. So, Meng Zhang decided to disregard Daoist Master Black Fox's orders and directly return to Taiyi Sect.

Luo Ye Daoist Master intervened, preventing Meng Zhang from acting rashly and insisting that he should follow the original plan and still meet with Daoist Master Black Fox.
