The Way of the Immortal Master

Sun Shengdu led the reconnaissance team to investigate forward, until it reached the position very deep into the Yuantu prairie, and did not encounter barbarians from outside the territory.

Before participating in the war, Sun Sheng had learned about the Yuantu Prairie from the Taiyi Gate.

Since the withdrawal from the Endless Sand Sea that year, the barbarians outside the territory have not actively invaded the Taiyi Gate territory, and the two sides have always maintained peace.

The barbarians from outside the territory have been staying in the Yuantu prairie obediently, as if they have never left here for half a step, let alone making any gesture of invading the Jiuqu province.

With such a powerful enemy as a neighbor, the Taiyi Gate did not dare to be careless at all.

Taiyimen was worried about provoking disputes, so they did not dare to send people into the Yuantu prairie, but still used various means to investigate various situations inside.

The local comprehension forces in Jiuqu Province had maintained business relations with Yuantu Prairie and Yunwu Daze for a period of time.

The trade was stopped soon, and the Taiyi Gate did not directly participate. However, Taiyimen still used various means to investigate these two places, especially the Yuantu Prairie, using the strength of the caravan.

Where Sun Shengdu is now, there should have been several barbarian tribes living around.

But now, apart from vague traces of the existence of barbarian tribes, there is no living person to be seen.

Apparently, the barbarians outside the region voluntarily gave up the territory they occupied, and began to shrink towards the interior of the Yuantu prairie.

Neither met the resistance of the barbarians outside the territory, and the other party's tribe had already migrated.

As an experienced veteran monk, Sun Shengdu vaguely guessed that something major happened to the barbarians outside the region.

Sun Shengdu passed the information obtained from the investigation back to the army behind, and he continued to lead the investigation team forward.

He became more cautious in his movements and made various preparations. Once he finds that the situation is wrong, he will run away immediately.

After receiving the information from Sun Shengdu, Meng Zhang knew that there was no resistance ahead, so he had to lead the army of monks to move forward.

Of course, even with the intelligence of Sun Shengdu's investigation, he was not careless. Still step by step, advance slowly.

In this way, the other two battlefields in Jiuqu Province were temporarily stuck in a stalemate, and it was impossible to tell the winner in a short time.

The direction Meng Zhang is in is extremely smooth, and he is advancing without hindrance.

If the barbarians outside the territory did not send forces to stop him, he might really lead an army into the core of the Yuantu prairie.

The Dali Dynasty valued military merit the most, and rewarded military merit the most generously. Seeing that he was about to make a great contribution, Meng Zhang was not happy.

The barbarians from outside the territory are definitely not that easy to deal with. Maybe there will be tough bones waiting for him ahead.

Meng Zhang did not reject and was even willing to fight with the barbarians outside the territory, but he never thought that he would have an endless life-and-death battle with the barbarians outside the territory.

The fact that the barbarians from outside the territory are shrinking so much is not because they are afraid of the Taiyi Gate, but because they must have other plans.

If the army of monks from Taiyimen really killed the core of the Yuantu prairie, making it impossible for the barbarians outside the territory to retreat, then an unprecedented bloody battle would inevitably erupt.

Compared with the possible military achievements, Meng Zhang is more unwilling to suffer too much loss from Taiyimen.

Taiyimen, as a comprehension force attached to the Dali Dynasty, has maintained a relatively independent position. Of course, it must preserve its strength as much as possible.

It's just that there is Zhenjun Wendong in the army as the supervisor, and the military order issued by Marshal Zhang Weineng is also reasonable and considerate. Meng Zhang really has no reason to stop.

Although Meng Zhang has repeatedly slowed down the speed of progress, the army's progress remains unchanged. No matter how long the distance is, it will end one day.

It took less than two months for the army to go deep into the Yuantu Prairie, getting closer and closer to the core of the Yuantu Prairie.

At this time, Sun Shengdu and the others who had gone out to investigate finally encountered obstacles.

Three barbarian kings led a barbarian army to line up in front, blocking Sun Shengdu's advance.

Sun Shengdu did his best. He left the rest of the scouting team behind and let them join the army behind.

Alone, relying on his advanced cultivation, he sneaked around the barbarian army in front, and went deep into the front, trying to find out what the barbarians outside the territory were up to.

When he heard that there was a barbarian army blocking the way ahead, Meng Zhang breathed a sigh of relief.

If the barbarians really did not do anything to stop them and let him lead the army all the way in, he would feel worried instead.

In any case, since the enemy has responded, one's own side cannot avoid the battle.

The fleet of flying boats covering the sky and the sun, escorted by many flying mounts, appeared not far in front of the barbarian army.

A large number of monks jumped off the flying boat one after another, and then formed formations on the ground, listing formations one by one.

The barbarian army quietly watched the enemy line up in the distance, and didn't intend to take the opportunity to rush up.

After the formation of the monk army was completed, Meng Zhang personally led the army forward and launched a tentative attack.

From the perspective of the size of the army alone, the number of monks in the army exceeded the opponent by a lot.

Since Meng Zhang became the head of the Taiyi Sect, he has also experienced many bloody battles, and established his reputation after each battle.

He didn't rush forward with his whole army just because the opponent seemed to have a small number of people, but let Zhenjun He Luo lead a team of monks to launch an attack first to test the opponent's reality.

Facing the enemy's tentative attack, the barbarian army also responded immediately.

Many barbarian warriors led by a barbarian king took the initiative to meet Zhenjun He Luo's team, and the two sides fought like this.

After that, Zhenjun Jin Li also stepped forward to attack.

Although Zhenjun Wendong is the supervisor of the army, since he is a member of the army, he cannot escape when the battle starts, and must obey the reasonable orders of the commander Meng Zhang.

Of course Meng Zhang would not let such a useful combat power go unused.

Under his order, Zhenjun Wendong flew to the battlefield and joined the battle.

After several probing attacks and Meng Zhang's own careful observation, he finally figured out the strength of the barbarian army on the opposite side.

The overall strength of the barbarian army is much worse than that of our own, and it is even more insufficient in terms of top-level combat effectiveness.

Even if True Monarch Sun Shengdu was still investigating ahead, the five Primordial Spirit True Monarchs present alone would be enough to overwhelm the opposing three barbarian kings.

Because Jin Qiao'er has the shortest time to achieve the primordial spirit, her cultivation base is the lowest. Meng Zhang did not let him directly participate in the battle, but asked her to patrol outside the battlefield as a mobile force.

Jin Qiaoer flew a large circle around the battlefield, but she didn't find any ambushes from the enemy.

The barbarian army in front of us really only has such a little strength.

Meng Zhang hesitated a little in his heart, should he seize the opportunity in front of him, put the whole army on top, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
