Chapter 4008 Warning Signs
From any angle, Shenxiao Jinxian should be the biggest threat to Meng Zhang and his team.
But why did everyone ignore his threat and even his existence?
When they were making various plans, they almost subconsciously forgot about him.
As a Tianji Immortal Master, Meng Zhang's spiritual perception had not given any warnings before.
Qianyuan Jinxian was a more outstanding Tianji Immortal Master than him, and he also did not notice any warning signs.
But Meng Zhang never forgot that when the Buddhist Namo Riyue Guang Buddha calculated and ambushed Qianyuan Jinxian, he also did not have any vigilance in advance and stepped into the trap so easily.
Therefore, their failure to notice the warning signs does not mean that the danger does not exist.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Qianyuan Jinxian betrayed Meng Zhang and stood on the side of Shenxiao Jinxian.
Meng Zhang knew Qianyuan Jinxian well and believed that he would not betray his allies.
The interests of the two of them were deeply involved, and it was difficult to cut them off completely.
Besides, if Qianyuan Jinxian had betrayed, Meng Zhang would not have survived until today, and would have been killed by Shenxiao Jinxian and his group.
Once Meng Zhang figured this out, a warning suddenly rose in his heart, and his spiritual sense was finally triggered.
He immediately understood what had happened.
The enemy was indeed very powerful. Not only did they block the secrets of heaven and hide their spiritual senses, but they also used some means to tamper with the laws of heaven and earth, affecting their cognition and misleading their thoughts...
You know, they are all Jinxians, and the means that can have such a big impact on them and make them collectively fall into the trap must be extraordinary.
Such means cannot be used by Meng Zhang, Xuanyun Jinxian, and ordinary Jinxians dare not even imagine it.
As for blocking the secrets of heaven, so that Qianyuan Jinxian, the top Tianji Xianshi master, could not detect the threat, it was not a big deal.
Although Qianyuan Jinxian was a top Tianji Xianshi master, he was not the strongest Tianji Xianshi master in the void.
In the case of intentional calculation, he was inevitably caught.
However, Meng Zhang had never revealed his identity as a Tianji Immortal Master, so the enemy Tianji Immortal Master might have subconsciously ignored him.
The enemy Tianji Immortal Master blocked the traces of his calculations and arrangements in the trajectory of the operation of the Heavenly Dao, but he would not specifically block Meng Zhang like he focused on Qianyuan Jinxian.
This could block Meng Zhang's spiritual perception for a while, but it was difficult to deceive him for a long time.
This gave Meng Zhang a glimmer of hope.
More importantly, Meng Zhang's previous epiphany made him improve his cultivation and his mind became purer and more transparent.
The means that originally affected his cognition and blocked his spiritual perception were finally gotten rid of by him.
He finally remembered the biggest threat of Shenxiao Jinxian, and his spiritual perception finally began to play its due role.
Although he had experienced countless storms and waves, and his mind had been tempered and was extremely tough, he almost couldn't help but change color on his face.
If he was a step slower and stepped into the Shenxiao world, he would most likely fall into the enemy's calculations.
By then, they would not be able to defeat the enemy, and they would not even be able to protect themselves.
He tried to stabilize his fluctuating emotions, without showing any abnormality, and began to think quickly about how to break the situation.
On the surface, they were the dominant party.
They had just won a great victory not long ago and killed the enemy's Golden Immortal.
They were now at the gates of the city, destroying the enemy's huge fleet that had accumulated for many years, attacking the Shenxiao World, breaking its defense system, and severely damaging it. The enemy's Golden Immortal did not even dare to show his head.
But who could have known that the seemingly good situation was shrouded in crisis, and they were actually on the edge of a cliff.
Meng Zhang did not reveal his latest discovery to any of his companions.
This was not because he did not trust them, but because he was worried that the enemy would find something wrong and launch an attack in advance.
According to Meng Zhang's judgment, the enemy should have known his true identity after the battle in the Burial Immortal Abyss, guessed his next move, and made targeted arrangements.
The enemy's reaction was so fast.
Meng Zhang tended to think that the Shenxiao Golden Immortal had secretly come out of seclusion and arranged everything personally.
Only he can have such a big hand and such courage to make such an arrangement.
As for whether he has completed the key practice and made a breakthrough in cultivation, it is unknown.
Meng Zhang has never dealt with Shenxiao Jinxian, but he has heard many rumors about him and collected a lot of information about him.
In addition to his extremely strong combat power, Shenxiao Jinxian is also deep-minded, good at calculating, and good at borrowing external forces...
Almost all the high-level Taoists know that one of the reasons why he was able to defeat Taiyi Jinxian back then was that he relied on various conspiracies and tricks to lay out the siege of Taiyi Jinxian...
Although Meng Zhang does not know the full picture of the enemy's conspiracy, he can already make many relatively accurate guesses.
Since the battle of the Burial Immortal Abyss, the strength of Meng Zhang and his team has basically been exposed.
Although Meng Zhang is a member of the Alien Jinxian camp, he has never expected that the Alien Jinxian will help him fight against Shenxiao Jinxian.
With the character and personality of Shenxiao Jinxian, he should not be satisfied with just defeating Meng Zhang and solving this problem.
With his courage, he will most likely prepare enough power to try to completely destroy Meng Zhang's team and solve all future troubles once and for all.
Not to mention the strength of Shenxiao Jinxian himself, the other Jinxians in his small group alone may not be able to defeat Meng Zhang and his team.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how strong the Golden Immortal of Shenxiao is, it is difficult to keep all the hostile Golden Immortals.
You know, as long as the cultivators can become Taoist Golden Immortals, they have many skills to save their lives and are difficult to be forced into desperate situations.
First, he may have arranged other helpers.
With his connections, prestige, and resources, it is not difficult to invite other Golden Immortals to help.
Second, he probably arranged traps to ambush Meng Zhang and his team.
His calculations were very precise and he paid a great price.
The lives of so many cultivators under their command, the power accumulated over a long period of time, and even the Shenxiao World were all abandoned by them and turned into bait to lure Meng Zhang and his team.
Although he had long known that the Golden Immortal of Shenxiao was a real hero, Meng Zhang still felt that the other party was cruel enough.
Although so far, all this is just Meng Zhang's speculation, and there is not much concrete evidence to prove that the Golden Immortal of Shenxiao arranged traps and prepared enough power to ambush them.
But Meng Zhang is very confident in his judgment.
More importantly, once he reacted, he found some faint traces, some clever means, which had influenced his cognition and made him subconsciously ignore the threat of Shenxiao Jinxian.
He did not dare to have any fluke mentality and had to prepare for the worst.
Although according to his judgment, the situation was very unfavorable to his side, at least he had reacted in advance and did not fall into the enemy's trap.
According to his guess, the enemy's trap was mostly in the Shenxiao World.
In this case, he certainly would not rashly step into the Shenxiao World.
He gave up his previous plan and continued to attack the Shenxiao World outside.
He deliberately restrained the power of the attack and was not in a hurry to break the Shenxiao World.
Originally, they wanted to fight quickly, break the Shenxiao World as soon as possible, and face the enemy Jinxian directly.
At this time, Meng Zhang wanted to delay time and not rush to break the Shenxiao World.
In this way, even if the enemy has any arrangements and arrangements, they should not be easily activated.
The strength of Meng Zhang's side has been exposed. Shenxiao Jinxian not only knows it, but will definitely guard against the Jinxians of Guizhen Sect and Fuyun League.
Now there are two variables on Meng Zhang's side, which the enemy should not have expected.
One variable is that Meng Zhang had an epiphany before, not only did his cultivation improve greatly, but his mind became purer and more transparent, so he discovered the trap set by Shenxiao Jinxian in advance.
The second variable is that Xuanyun Jinxian is very likely to make a major breakthrough during this retreat, and his cultivation and combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
These two variables are likely to become the key for Meng Zhang and his team to break the enemy's calculations and defeat the enemy.
At the very least, it can ensure that they can retreat unscathed.
Meng Zhang can explode at any time, but it is unknown when Xuanyun Jinxian will successfully break through.
Meng Zhang and his team launched it too early.
But now that things have come to this, there is no use regretting.
They can only delay time as much as possible and wait for Xuanyun Jinxian to come to the battlefield after he comes out of retreat.
Of course, he can't pin all his hopes on Xuanyun Jinxian.
It is not his character to rely on others blindly.
Although Meng Zhang deliberately slowed down the offensive, his companions still launched a fierce attack on the Shenxiao World.
The enemy Jinxian obviously had the advantage in numbers, but they chose to hide in the depths of the Shenxiao World, only releasing their strength and relying on the defense system of the Shenxiao World to fight against the invaders.
In this case, the enemy could not exert their full strength at all.
Meng Zhang and his team easily suppressed the enemy Jinxian.
The strength of Jinxians is originally strong and weak, and it is normal for different Jinxians to have a big gap.
Although the small group of Shenxiao Jinxian and his team is famous, not every Jinxian in the group can be regarded as a strong cultivator of the same level.
According to intelligence, in their small group, except for the leader Shenxiao Jinxian, Peng Zheng Jinxian, Wu Le Sanren, and Chen Xiao Jinxian are considered to be strong in combat.
Some of the other Jinxians are from production cultivators, and some are not very good at fighting because of their cultivation and practice of skills, but are better at some logistical support work.
It is normal for high-level cultivators to have division of labor in a top-level power.
The existence of these top-level production cultivators has immeasurable significance for the entire power.
However, in front of the brave and daring Fairy Yuzhen and Tianqing Jinxian, this kind of Jinxian will inevitably appear weak.
Not to mention that Meng Zhang had previously killed Jinxian Pengzheng head-on, and his momentum alone is estimated to overwhelm the enemy Jinxian.
In Meng Zhang's team, even the weakest Daolian Jinxian, his combat power is at least above the average level of the Jinxian group.
Therefore, although they are the side with fewer people, they have always been very strong. Not only are they the main attacking side, but they also have the upper hand.
Of course, Meng Zhang knows that this is only a superficial phenomenon.
If the enemy's real arrangement is exposed, they will become the weak side.
Although Meng Zhang deliberately held back, their side still gained more and more advantages.
The enemy Jinxian's defense and counterattack seemed to be more and more powerless.
The defense system of the Shenxiao World is about to be destroyed.
The fetal membrane of heaven and earth, which is an important support for the defense system, has become riddled with holes and overwhelmed, and it seems that it will collapse at any time.
Before that, Meng Zhang was going to seize the flaws in the enemy's defense system and kill directly into the interior of the Shenxiao World.
This is very much to the liking of Fairy Yuzhen and Golden Fairy Tianqing.
They are all paying attention to Meng Zhang's actions, ready to follow Meng Zhang to attack directly those enemies who are hiding.
But Meng Zhang was ready to start the action, but he stopped and continued to stay outside the Shenxiao World.
In the battle, it is normal to change tactics temporarily, and they didn't think much about it.
At most, they think Meng Zhang is too cautious.
But later, Meng Zhang continued to attack the Shenxiao World on the surface, but secretly began to hold back, which made them a little confused.
The main reason for this war was the grudge between Meng Zhang and Golden Fairy Shenxiao. They are irreconcilable, and Meng Zhang can't show mercy in such a battle.
They also believe in Meng Zhang's character, and he will not deliberately save his strength in the battle, play tricks, and let his allies do more work.
Meng Zhang must have his reasons for doing this.
Although Meng Zhang did not explain to them in time, they still believed in Meng Zhang.
They didn't say much and continued the original offensive.
Dao Lian Jin Xian, the old senior, discovered Meng Zhang's trick earlier.
He even secretly cooperated with Meng Zhang and took the initiative to help Meng Zhang cover up and prevent his trick from being exposed.
Meng Zhang soon discovered all this.
He was very moved.
They had not been allies for a long time, but they trusted each other and cooperated well.
Such good friends should not be sacrificed in vain.
Meng Zhang felt that he had an obligation to ensure the safety of his allies and prevent them from encountering any unexpected events in the next battle.
Although Meng Zhang had secretly held back and did not attack the Shenxiao World with all his strength, their advantage was becoming more and more obvious.
The Shenxiao World was about to collapse and looked like it would collapse completely at any time.
Meng Zhang had more feelings in his heart.
The first opportunity for the enemy to launch an attack should be when they broke into the interior of the Shenxiao World.
Of course, the enemy must have considered the possibility that they had not broken into the interior of the Shenxiao World and kept attacking outside.
Since the enemy had already calculated it, it must have thought it through carefully and considered various different situations.
Therefore, the enemy must have other plans.
Whether it is the intuition in his heart or his own speculation, Meng Zhang discovered that the second opportunity for the enemy to launch an attack is most likely when the Shenxiao World is completely destroyed by them.
Meng Zhang has not received any news from Xuanyun Jinxian, and it is obvious that he is still in seclusion and practicing hard.
They can no longer delay.
The Shenxiao World is in this state. If they continue to delay, the enemy will definitely become suspicious. (End of this chapter)
