By the time the higher-ups of the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect noticed the abnormality, they could no longer control the spread of the war.
Seventy percent of the sects under the two sects in the Central Plains were at war.
This battle lasted for three years, and Zhang Xing seemed to have almost been forgotten by everyone.
At this time, Zhang Xing led the dragons to the headquarters of the Hidden Mountain Sect.
The Master of the Hidden Mountain Sect, Shen Baiyi, was shocked when he saw Zhang Xing.
"May I know why Master Zhang is here?"
In the reception hall, Shen Baiyi personally received Zhang Xing and the dragons.
Looking at the fierce faces of the dragons, everyone in the Hidden Mountain Sect was very nervous.
"Master Shen, the war is raging outside, but your place is very quiet!"
Zhang Xing sat casually on a wide chair and looked at the setting in the hall.
"Haha!
Our sect has always been neutral and does not participate in the war. "
Shen Baiyi was dressed in white and looked like a middle-aged man. He had a square face and his smile was very comfortable.
"Master Shen, I'm afraid you don't mean it. With your status, how can you be willing to be under others? Who doesn't want to unify the world?"
Zhang Xing smiled faintly.
"Master Zhang, you're exaggerating. Our sect feels very good now. We cultivate in peace and develop steadily. Our disciples are very satisfied."
Shen Baiyi didn't know Zhang Xing's purpose, so he naturally wouldn't tell the truth.
As Zhang Xing said, he was sandwiched between the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect. His life was very difficult.
He couldn't offend either side, but he couldn't get too close either.
Accompanying a king was like accompanying a tiger. Those two sects were tigers that ate people without spitting out the bones.
If he got too close to them, he wouldn't even know how he died.
But now there was Zhang Xing, who was fiercer than those two tigers. He had 198 giant dragons. Even the Hidden Mountain Cult was afraid of him and didn't dare to declare war on him easily.
Why did he come?
Shen Baiyi thought about Zhang Xing's purpose while beating around the bush with Zhang Xing.
"Sect Master Shen, I came here this time to cooperate with you."
After a while, Zhang Xing began to get down to business.
"Cooperation?
With Sect Leader Zhang's strength, what else could he possibly want from me?
Please don't make fun of me. "
Shen Baiyi waved his hand, obviously not believing him.
"This cunning fellow!" Zhang Xing said in his heart.
He knew Shen Baiyi well. Shen Baiyi's character was smooth and slick. He had survived in the cracks between the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect for so many years. Shen Baiyi had to admit that he was very good at doing things.
In addition, this person always had a bottom line. He had never betrayed his friends.
This was what Zhang Xing saw in him.
"Sect Master Shen, I, Zhang Xing, am just passing by the Fifth Heaven. I don't intend to stay here for long.
From the 1st layer to the 5th layer, every layer has a branch of my Heavenly Dragon Sect, and at the same time, there are also partners.
I'm sure you've already heard about this. The reason I'm looking for you is because I want you to be the person in charge of the Fifth Layer of Heaven. "
"This …" Shen Baiyi scratched his head.
He already knew Zhang Xing's history, and he also understood the meaning of these words.
The Heavenly Dragon Sect needed to develop, but more importantly, it needed a reliable friend to take care of it. The Fourth Layer of Heaven had the help of the Devil Sect and the Shura Sect, the Third Layer of Heaven had the help of several large families of the Monster Clan, the Second Layer of Heaven had the help of the Sea Whale Clan, and the First Layer of Heaven was the world of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
It could be said that below the Fifth Layer of Heaven, it was basically Zhang Xing's territory.
On the other hand, those who followed Zhang Xing had gained a lot of benefits. Whether it was cultivation resources or cultivation realms, as long as he could help, Zhang Xing would not be stingy.
It was reasonable to say that he chose to cooperate with Zhang Xing, which was a perfect combination.
He also believed that Zhang Xing had the strength to complete this plan.
But …
"Sect Master Zhang, cooperation is possible, but there is one thing I have to remind you of."
Shen Baiyi thought for a moment and said with a serious face.
"Oh?
What is it that makes Sect Master Shen so serious? "
Zhang Xing asked curiously.
"Sect Master Zhang, to be honest, the situation in the Fifth Layer of Heaven is not the same as the other layers.
Even if you can destroy the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect, the forces behind them will not let you go! "
Shen Baiyi sighed.
"Oh, that's the reason. I know, Sect Master Shen doesn't have to worry."
Zhang Xing said indifferently.
"Sect Master Zhang, the forces behind them are the sects of the Sixth Layer of Heaven!
Any random sect disciple would be able to easily annihilate us! "
Shen Baiyi thought that Zhang Xing did not know enough and hurriedly reminded him.
"What's wrong with the sects of the Sixth Layer of Heaven?
I'd like to meet them and see if they are stronger or if I, Zhang Xing, am stronger! "
Hearing Zhang Xing's words, Shen Baiyi obviously did not believe it and kept shaking his head.
"Sect Master Zhang, I don't need to tell you the difference between the fifth and sixth layers of the Divine Realm.
As far as I know, the reason why the Hidden Mountain Cult did not attack you is that they sent people to the Sixth Layer of Heaven to ask for help.
Now the war between the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect is only on the surface. How can the group of old foxes of the two sects fight so easily? "
Shen Baiyi's words had the intention of reminding Zhang Xing.
In his opinion, Zhang Xing was still too inexperienced. On the surface, the Hidden Mountain Cult seemed to be afraid of Zhang Xing, but in fact, they were secretly working hard.
Three years, excluding the journey back and forth, was enough for the people behind them to be well prepared.
This was also the reason why Shen Baiyi did not make a move in these three years.
What the Hidden Mountain Cult could think of, Shen Baiyi could also think of, and what the Hidden Mountain Cult could do, the Heaven Changing Sect could also do.
In other words, when the reinforcements of the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect arrived, the Fifth Layer of Heaven would be the real decisive battle!
It was still unknown whether the Hidden Mountain Sect could survive this battle. The forces behind them were now too busy to take care of themselves, so they had no ability to take care of Shen Baiyi.
Therefore, Shen Baiyi was now at the end of his rope. He could only wait for the Hidden Mountain Cult and the Heaven Changing Sect to win, and then choose to submit to them.
They did not even have the qualifications to fight to the death.
If the two sects did not have the support of the Sixth Layer of Heaven, Shen Baiyi felt that cooperating with Zhang Xing would be the most appropriate.
"Oh?
They still have this move?
I underestimated them, but it doesn't matter. You just have to wait and see the result.
During this period, you don't have to do anything. You are responsible for cleaning up the battlefield after the battle! "
Zhang Xing raised the corner of his mouth and said disdainfully.
You used these three years to prepare in secret. Did you think that I, Zhang Xing, did not make any preparations?
"This … Since Lord Zhang said so, then I agree to cooperate with you!"
Shen Baiyi did not see any shock or worry on Zhang Xing's face. He gritted his teeth and decided to take a gamble.
It was better to cooperate with Zhang Xing than to submit to others.
What's more, Zhang Xing was an honest and upright person. He would never drag them down.
Zhang Xing's request for cooperation was to take care of his Sky Dragon Sect in the future. If Zhang Xing could win, this agreement would naturally be kept.
If Zhang Xing failed, his Heavenly Dragon Sect would also be annihilated, and there would be no need to keep this promise.
Shen Baiyi also didn't have any risks, so this was a good deal no matter how he looked at it.
