The flying boats of the four sects were clearly divided into four groups, flying towards the front. Shi Weida, alone, boarded the flying boat of the Taiyi Sect. He seed sowhat familiar and took the initiative to strike up a conversation with ng Zhang.
Compared to his cousin Shi Weiming, Shi Weida possessed higher innate talent in cultivation. As a result, he had been kept hidden by the family, practicing within its confines. Unlike his cousin Shi Weiming, who had already left early to serve the family, it was the first ti Shi Weida participated in a major battle after reaching Foundation Building stage.
ng Zhang was curious about Shi Family's background and engaged in a friendly chat with Shi Weida. However, whenever the topic shifted to the family's internal affairs, Shi Weida tactfully avoided discussing it. Despite several attempts, ng Zhang couldn't extract any useful information, so he stopped pursuing the matter and rested with his eyes closed.
The flying boat swiftly advanced, leaving Singing Sand City behind and entering the territory of Twin Success Valley. A small oasis ca into view, but it was in a pitiful state, with black ruins scattered all around. The mortal inhabitants who used to reside in the oasis had long disappeared.
Over the years, various forces had shown concern for the situation here. From ti to ti, they sent scouts to gather information. Three years ago, after Liu Family and Green Bamboo Mountain suffered a devastating defeat, they couldn't maintain order in the occupied areas due to heavy losses and depleted strength.
Countless external cultivators who received the news took advantage of the situation and plundered the land of Twin Success Valley without restraint. These lawless cultivators were even more terrifying than locusts, leaving nothing behind in their wake.
Not only were all the cultivation resources looted, but the mortals also suffered greatly. The able-bodied n were taken as laborers, so were sold to mines, and even children found buyers among various cultivation forces. As for the useless elderly, weak, sick, and disabled, they were directly dealt with on-site.
Faced with cultivators, even the weakest Refining Qi stage cultivators had no resistance against them. Scenes of bloodshed and brutality played out repeatedly, and the mortals in Twin Success Valley were almost completely eradicated.
Normally, such a large-scale catastrophe that caused significant harm to mortals would have attracted the intervention of righteous sects. However, the Flying Swan Sect, as the leader of the righteous sects, turned a blind eye and even allowed it to happen. Therefore, other forces might have had their concerns, but they chose to remain silent and avoid getting involved.
As the joint forces of the four sects moved forward, they encountered several oases, all showing similar tragic scenes. The places ravaged by the marauding loose cultivators were left barren, and there was no hope of finding any gains there.
The flying boats continued without stopping until they finally reached a relatively intact oasis, guarded by Liu Family cultivators. Without the need for several Foundation Building stage cultivators to act, the Refining Qi stage cultivators from various sects sward and easily captured the oasis, eliminating all enemies.
In order to train their disciples, the several Foundation Building stage cultivators stayed in the flying boats without making a move.
On this journey, besides capturing three oases, they also encountered so loose cultivators led by team leaders who were engaged in pillaging. Even the cold-hearted cultivators were sowhat moved by the tragic scenes they witnessed, especially the young and fiery ng Zhang, who despised these heartless villains.
Such inhumane and wanton killing was hard to tolerate. These evildoers truly deserved their grim fate. ng Zhang imdiately drew his flying sword and took action.
A group of Refining Qi stage cultivators couldn't put up any resistance against a Foundation Building stage expert who attacked in anger. In a matter of monts, all the criminals were beheaded.
Ruan Dadao couldn't help but disdainfully remark, "Youth lacks composure. Even as Foundation Building stage cultivators, they show off against Refining Qi stage cultivators. It's truly disappointing."
His words were heard clearly by everyone on the other flying boats. However, this ti, no one chid in, not even their ally Aunt Jin, who only managed a dry laugh. Lin Shenpo even frowned, clearly showing so displeasure.
After the little incident on the way, the flying boats continued without delay and finally arrived at their destination, Date Spice Oasis.
Date Spice Oasis was situated atop a Second Rank spirit vein and was once the most important stronghold in Twin Success Valley after the main gate. However, its significance started to diminish when Twin Success Valley focused on developing Singing Sand City. Nevertheless, it remained an important location with nurous Twin Success Valley cultivators stationed there, and a large number of mortals inhabited the area. Many families of Twin Success Valley cultivators resided in Date Spice Oasis.
The na "Date Spice Oasis" originated from the many date palm trees planted in the oasis. So of these trees were Spirit Plants that produced an abundance of spiritual fruit dates. Especially, the Second Rank Spirit Plants, of which there were only 10-20, produced dates that were cherished delicacies for Foundation Building stage cultivators.
When Twin Success Valley was still intact, it used to offer so of these dates as tributes to the Flying Swan Sect. The entire oasis would be filled with a strong aroma of dates when they ripened.
However, after Twin Success Valley was destroyed by the Flying Swan Sect, the joint forces of Green Bamboo Mountain and Liu Family attacked Date Spice Oasis first. Many Twin Success Valley cultivators fled, but a small group of them, with stubbornness, attempted to resist the alliance by relying on a Second Rank Formation.
No matter how formidable the Formation, it still required cultivators with corresponding strength to operate. A small group of Refining Qi stage cultivators had no hope of unleashing the full power of a Second Rank Formation.
After expending significant effort, the alliance finally broke the Formation and took control of the oasis. All the Twin Success Valley cultivators died in battle, and countless mortals in the oasis suffered as well.
Fortunately, both Green Bamboo Mountain and Liu Family were considered righteous sects and had their limits when it ca to their actions. Furthermore, they treated the oasis as their spoils and did not want to cause excessive damage.
Date Spice Oasis remained mostly intact, with many mortals still living there, but the ownership had shifted to Liu Family and Green Bamboo Mountain.
