Chapter 251: Victory


    After Guang HongDaoist finished clearing the main storage area and stowed away valuable items, he left the ce and headed towards the Hidden Scripture Pavilion. Upon arriving there, the Hidden Scripture Pavilion had already copsedpletely, and amidst the ruins, one could asionally see the remains of a few corpses.


    Guang HongDaoist called for Meng Zhang and Aunt Jin, and together they cleaned up the debris. Once the ce was cleared, they found only some copsed bookshelves, fragmented remains of bodies, and charred books. Carefully searching, they discovered a pile of intact books and a few jade slips.


    Overall, Guang HongDaoist didn''t gain much from the Hidden Scripture Pavilion. It seemed that during the sand monster attack, a group of Liu Family cultivators had defended the pavilion, but in the end, both the pavilion and its scriptures were destroyed, burned to ashes.


    The main storage area and Hidden Scripture Pavilion were probably the most crucial locations for the Liu Family. Searching these two ces should yield the most significant rewards. As for the alchemy, refining tools, and talisman-making aspects of the Liu Family, they were not outstanding. ces like the alchemy room and the tool room were unlikely to contain exceptional items.


    Of course, considering the Liu Family''s heritage of hundreds of years and numerous cultivators, there would undoubtedly be some precious items in other parts of the sect. However, the Liu Family''s mountain gate covered a vast area, and it would take a considerable amount of time to search it thoroughly.


    At this moment, Deep EarthSpirit General also flew over. Upon seeing Guang HongDaoist, he came directly to report. He had already cleared out all the sand monsters near the Liu Family mountain gate. However, there were still a few small sand monsters and First Rank sand monsters wandering around a little further from the mountain gate.


    After pondering for a moment, Guang HongDaoist ordered Meng Zhang and the others to support the battle against the Refining Qi stage and the sand monster army. He stayed behind to guard the Liu Family mountain gate, preventing any sand monsters from escaping to that area.


    Meng Zhang and the others understood Guang HongDaoist''s intentions very well. The old guy simply wanted to take all the credit and didn''t want them to be in the way, so he sent them off.


    Naturally, Meng Zhang and the others obeyed the order and directly flew away from the Liu Family mountain gate, heading towards the battlefield.


    After flying away from the Liu Family mountain gate, Deep EarthSpirit General gave Meng Zhang a smug look. It seemed that Deep EarthSpirit General had gained quite a lot this time.


    Meng Zhang and the others flew at a rapid speed, deeply concerned about the situation of their fellow sect members'' battle.


    When they arrived over the battlefield, the coalition of several sects was still engaged in a fierce battle against the sand monsters. There were significant casualties among the sects, and the sand monster army had suffered heavy losses, but they still maintained a numerical advantage.


    Without dy, the three of them dove down from the sky and joined the attack against the sand monster army.


    Though the sand monster army was numerous, they consisted mostly of First Rank sand monsters and small sand monsters. Faced with Foundation Building stage cultivators, even if the sand monsters formed a formation, they could hardly contend.


    Golden needles flew chaotically, flying swords danced in the air, and huge hammers swept across the battlefield. The three Foundation Building stage cultivators went all out, quickly clearing arge number of sand monsters, creating a gap in the sand monster army formation.


    With reinforcements joining the battle, the morale of the disciples from various sects soared, and they fought back vigorously.


    The three Foundation Building stage cultivators acted like three sharp arrows, deeply prating the sand monster army. The disciples from various sects followed closely behind, disrupting the originally organized formation of the sand monster army.


    The sand monster army''s greatest advantage lies in two aspects. Firstly, they possess numerous numbers, spreading across the mountains and ins. Secondly, their unique formations allow them to gather the power of all sand monsters and fully unleash their formidablebat strength.


    Currently, their formation has been disrupted, and the sand monster army has be scattered and chaotic. Without themand and leadership of the Second Rank sand monsters, these creatures don''t even know how to retreat and can only fight to the death in their current positions.


    The battle has beensting for a long time, with everyone pushing through exhaustion and persisting in the fight topletely eliminate the sand monster army. After the battle ends and all sand monsters have been annihted, many disciples at the Refining Qi stage,pletely disregarding their appearance, sit down on the ground, unwilling to move their bodies at all.


    Meng Zhang and hispanions have also suffered some excessive consumption and have to sit down on the ground to meditate and restore their true qi.


    Xu Yishan has made numerous moves, which have led to uncontroble injuries. Today, he has vomited countless mouthfuls of blood, his face frighteningly pale. Fortunately, he is a cultivator at the Foundation Building stage, so as long as he hasn''t been killed on the spot, taking a few pills can stabilize his condition.


    When night falls, the Foundation Building cultivators who went to chase down the Second Rank sand monsters finally return under the guidance of Guang HuiDaoist. None of these Foundation Building cultivators suffered any losses.


    Meng Zhang and his friends inquired and found out that most of the Second Rank sand monsters had been killed during the pursuit, but two of them managed to escape. One of these Second Rank sand monsters was proficient in earth-escaping techniques and used the cover of the ground to flee. The other was skilled in wind-escaping techniques, making it incredibly fast and quickly disappeared after leaving the battlefield.


    Despite these two escapees, which hindered the full sess of this great battle, the oue was still remarkable and could be considered a rare major victory.


    Over at the Flying Swan Sect, although they had a Gold Core Daoist Master leading the battle, the sand monster side also had Third Rank sand monsters. These Third Rank sand monsters were fundamentally different from ordinary sand monsters, possessing more intelligence and beast-like instincts. Even with a numerical advantage on the human side with Gold Core Daoist Masters, it was challenging topletely exterminate them. Additionally, the leadership of the Third Rank sand monsters made the sand monster army even more difficult to deal with.


    In this sand monster uprising, the Flying Swan Sect fought with the sand monster army for a long time, and a victory like today was truly a rare event.


    After the major battle, each sect started their recovery and reorganization. The cultivator team from Forest Spring Watch directly settled at the mountain gate of Liu Family, while the teams from other sects camped nearby.


    Lin Bailin had already thoroughly cleaned the area around Liu Family''s mountain gate to ensure no sand monsters remained.


    Although they achieved a great victory, the Refining Qi stage disciples from various sects suffered significant casualties. Only at Taiyi Sect, over ten disciples were killed, and the remaining ones were almost all injured. Meng Zhang knew that as long as Taiyi Sect wanted to establish a foothold in the Cultivation World, they couldn''t avoid getting involved in various conflicts. In the future, more casualties and simr scenes would undoubtedly ur.


    In fact, the casualties at Taiyi Sect were rtively light. Before the battle even began, Wen Qiansunmanded his disciples to set up the Qiankun Rotating Formation. Besides the dozens of formation gs, they also utilized thebined magic tool, the Nine Pce Windfire Banner, to bolster their strength. Unfortunately, there weren''t enough cannon fodder to consume the enemy''s attacks. The disciples of Taiyi Sect had to split into two teams, rotating to share the pressure and protect each other within the formation. Some weaker disciples couldn''t withstand the immense pressure and were gradually worn down and killed within the formation.


    The formation protected most of the disciples, and without this Base Formation technique, the casualties would have been even more substantial.
