CHAPTER 828: DILEMMA

Xiao Jiansheng's conclusion had both good and b

Xiao Jiansheng's conclusion had both good and bad news.

He began with the good news. Due to the complete collapse of the spatial channel connecting to the Mirage Secret Realm, the extraterritorial Yaozu and Spirit Clan could no longer directly enter the Mirage Secret Realm. This was in line with Meng Zhang's own judgment, which brought him some relief. If the Yaozu and Spirit Clan could enter the Mirage Secret Realm and come out from there, Taiyi Sect would undoubtedly be their first target. Facing such formidable enemies, Taiyi Sect would be unable to resist, leading to a disaster.

The fact that the Yaozu and Spirit Clan couldn't directly enter the Mirage Secret Realm was a piece of very good news for Meng Zhang.

However, after the good news, Xiao Jiansheng revealed the bad news. The spatial channel established by the Purple Gold Sect hadn't completely collapsed. Thanks to the efforts of the strong from the Yaozu and Spirit Clan, the end of the channel connected to the Purple Gold Sect's small world had likely been preserved. If there were experts among the Yaozu proficient in spatial manipulation, they could attempt to repair this spatial channel. Even if they couldn't fully restore it, they could repair a significant portion of it.

Xiao Jiansheng, based on his knowledge of the extraterritorial Yaozu, knew that they had no shortage of experts in spatial manipulation. Therefore, the strong from the Yaozu and Spirit Clan would still be able to enter the Grand Dust World through the spatial channel.

However, incomplete spatial channels would lead to significant deviations in their destinations. According to Xiao Jiansheng's judgment, the Endless Sea of Sand, the nearby Demon Wind Gobi, Yuantu Great Prairie, the entire Jiuqu League, and even the more southern Crossing Severing Mountain Range could all become the destinations of the Yaozu and Spirit Clan's transmission.

As for when they could repair the spatial channel and when they would be able to transmit again, and from which location they would emerge, Xiao Jiansheng couldn't determine that.

After listening to Xiao Jiansheng's words, everyone fell into silence.

It was like a leaky roof encountering continuous rain.

Jiuqu League was already facing the mad offensive of the North Sweeping Grand Army from the Dali Dynasty, and the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan was also lurking on the side. Now, they had to deal with the invasion of the Yaozu and Spirit Clan.

Based on their previous encounters, everyone knew how powerful these two races were. Given the current situation of the Jiuqu League, they couldn't bear any more pressure.

Of course, if the Jiuqu League was lucky enough, they might not become the unlucky ones. If the invading Yaozu and Spirit Clan were transmitted to the territory of the Dali Dynasty, then it would be the Dali Dynasty that suffered. Even if the invaders were transmitted to Yuantu Great Prairie, it wouldn't be a bad thing either. Different extraterritorial races might not necessarily be friends. The Barbarian Clan already occupying Yuantu Great Prairie might not welcome the arrival of the Yaozu and Spirit Clan.

Meng Zhang felt helpless about such matters. He could only silently hope that the Yaozu and Spirit Clan would be transmitted as far away as possible, away from the Endless Sea of Sand and Demon Wind Gobi, so that he and Taiyi Sect could escape the calamity.

Xing Jian True Monarch and Jade Rabbit True Monarch also hoped for better luck for the Jiuqu League, ideally making the Dali Dynasty suffer.

However, as a World Traveler of the Purple Yang Holy Sect, Xiao Jiansheng couldn't be so narrow-minded. He had to broaden his perspective and consider the problem they were facing from the standpoint of the entire Grand Dust World.According to the tradition of the Grand Dust World, when a large-scale invasion by extraterritorial races occurs, nearby major cultivation forces engaged in conflict should cease their battles and unite to expel the Extraterritorial Invaders. This rule was jointly formulated by the major Holy Land Sects and one they strongly upheld.

For the Jiuqu League, a ceasefire with the Dali Dynasty at this moment would be absolutely desirable. Led by the Jade Sword Sect, the Jiuqu League was already exhausted and on the verge of collapse due to the relentless assault of the Dali Dynasty's North Sweeping Grand Army.

While investigating the situation of the spatial channel, Xiao Jiansheng and the others didn't forget to contact the high-level members of the Jade Sword Sect. According to the news received from the Jade Sword Sect, without Xiao Jiansheng and the other three top-notch experts, the Jiuqu League was in a difficult situation, and the defense near the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain was on the brink of collapse.

However, for the Purple Yang Holy Sect, a ceasefire with the Dali Dynasty was not a favorable situation. While the Jiuqu League was struggling, the Purple Yang Holy Sect had employed numerous methods and applied significant pressure from all directions to the Dali Dynasty. It wouldn't be long before the Purple Yang Holy Sect fully launched their plan to annihilate the Dali Dynasty.

But now, due to the invasion of the extraterritorial Yaozu and Spirit Clan, they had to temporarily halt their pressure on the Dali Dynasty, providing them with a chance to catch their breath.

Xiao Jiansheng knew that in the eyes of the higher-ups of the sect, the Dali Dynasty was already a serious threat and needed to be dealt with promptly.

After thinking for a long time, even with Xiao Jiansheng's intelligence, he couldn't come up with a perfect solution.

Helpless, he had no choice but to report this matter to the sect and await their decision.

With the frontline at the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain in dire straits, Xiao Jiansheng didn't linger and left with Xing Jian True Monarch and the others.

Before leaving, Xiao Jiansheng specifically instructed Meng Zhang. Although the spatial channel connected to the Mirage Secret Realm had been destroyed, he couldn't afford to be too careless. It would be best to arrange enough force nearby to strengthen their vigilance, constantly monitoring the surroundings for any special spatial fluctuations.

While Meng Zhang agreed to his request, he found it somewhat challenging. Taiyi Sect's current Primordial Spirit strength was limited, and they couldn't spare resources for this task. However, he also couldn't completely ignore it.

Helplessly, he decided to send a few clever Gold Core cultivators to reinforce the area. After all, they were only there to monitor and not to engage with the powerful Yaozu.

With Xiao Jiansheng and the others gone, only Meng Zhang and Jin Li True Monarch remained.

At this moment, Meng Zhang finally had the opportunity to discuss some private matters with Jin Li True Monarch.

Before this, Meng Zhang had already roughly explained the current situation of the Jiuqu League to Jin Li True Monarch.

Now, he was sharing some information about Taiyi Sect.

Apart from concealing some details about Maple Leaf Mountain City and the Grand Crossing Cultivation Circle, Meng Zhang revealed many of Taiyi Sect's private plans. Taiyi Sect had been fostering conflict with the extraterritorial Barbarian Clan while evading the Jade Sword Sect's enlistment.

With the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain's frontline in crisis and Jin Li True Monarch safely returning, the Jade Sword Sect wouldn't leave Jin Li True Monarch, a Primordial Spirit expert, unused.

When Xiao Jiansheng and the others left, Xing Jian True Monarch had intended to bring Jin Li True Monarch along. However, Jin Li True Monarch claimed to have been seriously injured by powerful Yaozu and needed time to heal, using this as an excuse to temporarily avoid going to the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain frontline to fight for the Jade Sword Sect.

Jin Li True Monarch was equally unwilling to be drawn into a life-and-death struggle at the Yellow Lotus Sacred Mountain.
