The Way of the Immortal Master

Knowing that Shuangfenggu had made a move, Meng Zhang left Mingshafang City and rushed to Zhao Family Mountain Gate early.

The mountain gate of the Zhao family is located to the west of Taiyi Gate, a distance of more than three hundred miles.

There is a series of low hills, which surround a large plain.

This plain is called the Fuzhao Valley, and it is located on a second-level low-grade spiritual vein.

A second-tier low-rank guard formation, built on the basis of spiritual veins, almost covered the entire plain.

In the middle of the plain, there are a lot of buildings. The most core parts of the Zhao family, the ancestral hall, the Buddhist scripture pavilion, the big library, etc., are basically located here.

Most of the Zhao family's monks also live in this building all year round.

Around this building, there are more than 100 acres of spiritual fields that the Zhao family has painstakingly managed for three hundred years.

There are many mortals living on the edge of the plain. Almost all of them are mortal relatives of monks of the Zhao family.

Outside of this hill, within a radius of tens of miles, there are five oases of different sizes.

The mortals under the Zhao family's rule live in these oases respectively.

Meng Zhang did not rush directly to Fuzhao Valley, the mountain gate of the Zhao family, but walked around the Zhao family's territory to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment.

Compared with Taiyi Gate, the environment in the Zhao family territory is much better.

The mountain gate is a second-order spiritual vein, and there are five oases within the territory, where many mortals have bred, which really makes Meng Zhang envious.

Meng Zhang couldn't help thinking about how to expand the Taiyi Sect after the Zhao family's decline, and how to divide up the Zhao family's inheritance.

After walking around outside, Meng Zhang arrived outside the gate of Zhao Family Mountain in broad daylight.

Outside the gate of the Zhao family, a large number of monks had already gathered at this time.

These monks were sneaky and sneaky, and they knew they had bad intentions at a glance.

Many monks obviously changed their attire to deceive others.

Masked attire has become the most popular attire among these monks.

Of course, such a crude disguise cannot conceal his true identity. Familiar people can still be recognized at a glance.

However, talking is better than nothing, pretending, at least I can relax a little bit.

Meng Zhang also did as the Romans did, and pulled a piece of cloth to cover his face.

Among these monks, there are many solitary travelers who come and go alone, and there are also many small groups of varying numbers.

Meng Zhang walked to a small hillside only ten miles away from the gate of Zhao Family Mountain, where several groups of monks had already gathered.

Seeing Meng Zhang coming, many people didn't take it seriously, and some people came over to say hello.

The person who came to say hello turned out to be a member of Lamengzhang. Their little gang has already started discussing how to break into Zhao's house and how to rob the house efficiently.

Meng Zhang said a few perfunctory words, found a corner to sit down, and waited quietly.

Meng Zhangyun raised his illusion-breaking eyes and looked around.

The number of monks gathered here was beyond Meng Zhang's expectation.

There are several well-known bandit gangs also haunting the surrounding area.

From the looks of it, the news that the Zhao family possessed the Foundation Establishment Pill not only attracted monks who needed the Foundation Establishment Pill, but also attracted many monks who took advantage of the fire and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.

For many monks who have successfully refined Qi, the Foundation Establishment Pill is their only hope for foundation establishment. If you can't build a foundation, it is tantamount to slowly waiting for death.

Regardless of whether the news is true or false, they will take a chance.

The Zhao family is considered powerful, but as long as there are no foundation-building monks for a day, they cannot stop the greedy eyes of these monks.

There are more and more monks gathered around, but the Zhao family still has a lot of prestige after all, and the mountain gate is guarded by a large array of second-tier guards.

All of a sudden, many monks were just watching, but they didn't dare to act rashly.

The monks of the Zhao family have long noticed these situations outside.

The guardian formation has been opened, and the monks of the Zhao family are fully armed and ready to fight.

In the afternoon, a flying boat flew over from a distance.

Judging from the logo on the flying boat, it should belong to the flying boat of Shuangfeng Valley.

The flying boat came to the sky above the gate of Zhao Family Mountain, and a loud voice came from inside.

"Listen up, the monks of the Zhao family below. I waited until this point after chasing the bandit, but the bandit suddenly disappeared. Now we are going to search your Zhao family to see if your Zhao family is colluding with the bandit and whether the bandit is hiding inside."

After a while, there was a replying voice from the Zhao family's large formation.

"Senior, our Zhao family has always been innocent and will never collude with bandits..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a shout.

"Nonsense, innocent or not, it's not up to you."

"Hurry up and open the big array, let's go in and search. Otherwise, your Zhao family will be a guilty conscience."

Under the persecution of the monks of Shuangfenggu, the monks of the Zhao family did not dare to shut them out after all. After hesitating for a long time, he still opened the large array of guards and welcomed the Shuangfenggu monks on the flying boat into it.

After the flying boat from Shuangfeng Valley arrived, the monks who were staring at them all became more restrained.

The prestige of Shuangfenggu made everyone jealous, for fear that the monks of Shuangfenggu would stand up for the Zhao family and run over to expel them.

Meng Zhang knew in his heart that the cultivator of Shuangfenggu would never stand up for the Zhao family, but would only plot against the Zhao family secretly.

He couldn't help thinking: What are these Shuangfenggu monks doing here? Could it be that they are here to deceive the Zhao family guards to open the formation so that everyone can rush in?

However, a decent family like Shuangfenggu cares about face the most. With their usual style of acting, they shouldn't be so direct and rude.

Time passed slowly amidst Meng Zhang's wild thoughts. Brother Shuangfenggu stayed inside for a long time before coming out.

From the looks of it, there should be no trace of bandits inside.

After Shuangfenggu cultivator left the Zhao family, he left directly in the flying boat.

As soon as the monks of Shuangfenggu left, the monks who were still restrained completely lost their restraint. One by one, they looked at the gate of the Zhao family with greedy eyes, eager to try.

If someone climbed up and shouted at this time, I am afraid that many monks would flock to the gate of the Zhao family.

Time passed quickly, and night fell soon.

Although they have been guarding hard for several days, the monks of the Zhao family dare not slack off in the slightest.

Who knows if the daring monks outside will directly attack the guard formation.

Unknowingly, several teams of monks approached slowly, very close to the defensive range of the guard formation.

"Listen, people outside, hurry up and stop. If you take another step forward, you will bear the consequences."

A loud warning voice came from the large formation of the guards.

The warning seemed to have worked, and these teams of monks all stopped and stopped moving forward.

These teams of monks looked forward and faced off silently with the Zhao family's monks across the guard formation. Neither leaving nor advancing, I don't know what to wait for.
