The Way of the Immortal Master

The True Dragon Clan is a foreign race, the great enemy of cultivators, and even more so, the human race.

In the face of strong external pressure, Meng Zhang has repeatedly lowered his bottom line, preferring to seek skin from a tiger.

Or to put it nicely, it's called having a more flexible bottom line.

However, the True Dragon Clan has nothing to do with the Dao of Demons, so Meng Zhang is willing to cooperate with them.

Meng Zhang wants to use the power of the True Dragon Clan to resist the major holy land sects. The True Dragon Clan tries to use the Taiyi Gate to cause greater civil strife among the human cultivators and weaken the strength of the human cultivators as a whole.

Both parties are well aware of each other's intentions, and both are willing to cooperate and take advantage of each other.

Both parties are very confident in themselves, thinking that they are the ones who have the last laugh.

After Meng Zhang returned to the Zongmen from South China Sea, he arranged for his cronies in the Zongmen to secretly establish contact with the True Dragon Clan.

Taiyimen monks often go to the South China Sea in the name of visiting the Sea Spirit Sect, and secretly meet with the powerful members of the True Dragon Clan through the Sea Clan entrenched in the South China Sea.

Of course, all of this is kept extremely secret, even the allies of the Sea Spirit faction are kept in the dark.

In addition, Taiyimen has many enclaves in the West Sea, and has established many strongholds for mining the resources of the West Sea.

Taiyi Sect has a dedicated monk in Xihai who is responsible for contacting the True Dragon Clan.

The two parties secretly carried out various transactions and exchanged information.

Human cultivators are nominally the rulers of the Junchen Realm, but deep in the ocean of the Junchen Realm is the territory of the True Dragon Clan.

Even if Zhenhai Palace and other sects defeated the Sea Clan and occupied a large area of ​​sea territory, they were far from touching the territory of the True Dragon Clan.

The True Dragon Clan occupies an incomparably vast territory in the depths of the ocean and possesses extremely rich resources.

In particular, some resources that only grow under the special environment deep in the ocean are extremely precious and scarce to the cultivation world.

On the surface, the True Dragon Clan has no contact with human cultivators, nor does it have any formal business channels.

Many human cultivators either practice special exercises or refine special medicines, etc., often need some special products from the depths of the ocean.

At this time, very few similar specialty products that flow into the cultivation world through smuggling channels often sell for sky-high prices.

Taiyimen, like other sects involved in the West Sea, although they can mine many sea resources, they have no access to the resources deep in the ocean.

After establishing contact with the True Dragon Clan, the business and trade between the two parties will be of great benefit to each other.

The influence of the True Dragon Clan on the mainland is effective, but they also need a lot of resources produced on land.

The Taiyi Sect keeps its contacts with the True Dragon Clan strictly confidential, and is even more cautious in handling resources from various transactions.

Those resources that can be obtained in the sea area controlled by the human race can be sold by the Taiyi Gate.

Those resources that are only produced in the depths of the ocean are generally digested internally by the Taiyi Gate, and almost never flow out.

The number of direct line monks in Taiyi Sect now exceeds 10,000, and the members of the Hanhai Dao League under its command, as well as casual cultivators who have lived in its territory for a long time, add up to five figures.

Such a vast market naturally has a huge demand.

The vast territory of Taiyi Gate has almost been fully developed, and more resources need to be introduced from the outside.

Taiyi Gate itself has a very strong production capacity, covering all aspects of alchemy, refining, talisman making, etc., and has a strong ability to digest various resources.

If it weren't for the situation in Junchen Realm, Taiyimen might have embarked on the road of external expansion again.

Meng Zhang initially established contact with the True Dragon Clan, just wanting to keep an emergency escape route.

Now after many years of secret business contacts, the Taiyi Gate has become more and more dependent on this secret trade route.

Meng Zhang originally looked down on the indigenous gods and descendants of Junchen Realm.

But after exploring the secret space left by the indigenous gods in the void, his thinking has changed a lot.

The centipede is dead but not stiff, and the indigenous gods have ruled the Junchen world for many years, even if they are completely defeated by the cultivators, they still have some residual heritage.

In particular, such great Void-returning powers as Qiu Gangfeng have turned to the power of the indigenous gods, which made Meng Zhang have more expectations for him.

The native gods and cultivators of the Junchen Realm are at odds with each other, and there are countless blood feuds with the current ruler of the Junchen Realm.

Although it is said that the enemy of an enemy is a friend, the hatred between the cultivator and the indigenous gods is too deep. As a cultivator, Meng Zhang does not expect to be able to form an alliance with the remaining indigenous gods.

He just hoped to use the power of the indigenous gods to deal a blow to the major holy land sects.

Meng Zhang tried secretly to establish contact with the indigenous gods, but has been unsuccessful.

The remnants of the indigenous gods in the Junchen Realm have survived thousands of years of pursuit by the cultivators. Their hiding skills are very good, and they are full of wariness against the cultivators.

Although Meng Zhang had cooperated with Luna, he had temporarily lost contact with Luna since the last farewell.

Without the help of the moon god, Meng Zhang was temporarily unable to establish contact with the wary indigenous gods, and naturally he had no way to use the other party's power.

Of course, Meng Zhang did not give up on this, and still ordered the Taiyimen monks to search for the whereabouts of the indigenous gods and obtain various information about them.

The entire cultivation world has spent thousands of years without finding and killing the remaining indigenous gods. It seems unlikely that the Taiyi Sect will succeed in finding them in a short period of time.

Taiyimen's intelligence system is not useless.

The identities of the five Void Returning Powers who participated in the robbery of Gu Yue's family's treasures were quickly investigated.

They seem to be completely unrelated casual cultivators, but behind them, traces of the major holy land sects can be faintly seen.

Meng Zhang guessed right, they were pawns secretly cultivated by the major holy land sects, and they were specially used to deal with some matters that the major holy land sects could not directly come forward to deal with.

The timing is not right now, and it is not easy for Meng Zhang to settle accounts with these guys, so he can only write down the accounts and wait for the settlement in the future.

Now Meng Zhang is trying every means to find all useful allies.

It's a pity that given the size of the Junchen Realm, there are really not many forces that dare to confront the sects of the major holy lands.

After so many years of hard work, the Taiyi Gate can be regarded as contacting a force that can be contacted.

As for those demon cultivators and ghost cultivators, Meng Zhang simply looked down on them.

Firstly, it was Meng Zhang who had a bottom line and was unwilling to collude with the Demonic Dao.

Secondly, the demon cultivators and ghost cultivators in Junchen Realm are not good enough, they are completely street rats.

Meng Zhang is well aware of the strength of the major holy land sects, and the Taiyi sect needs more external forces to contain them.

Sometimes Meng Zhang couldn't help thinking about whether he should secretly find a way to contact the invaders from outside the territory, especially those forces that have conflicts with the magic way.

After several considerations, because there was no reliable channel, and Meng Zhang always rejected it, he temporarily gave up this idea.

Thanks to old friends Fei Qiyi and EricWSC for their many rewards.
