Because of his 30% success rate in refining pills, the materials he had saved in these two years were actually enough for him to last more than a hundred years’ worth of elixirs use.
In addition to his previous inventory, as long as it wasn’t True Yuan Pilis or other useless pills for his cultivation, he could carry on for at least 300 years with the elixirs on hand.
Moreover, in the time to come, he would continue to complete the sect’s pill refining tasks, meaning he could still accumulate more alchemy materials, at least storing up another two-thirds of what he had.
Now, in his heart, he only hoped that even if the beast tide could not be resisted, the time would come as late as possible, allowing himself to make more preparations.
During this time, he also took time to visit the Internal Affairs Office and the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, exchanging some refining materials and cultivation resources such as talisman array methods, just in case.
By the third year of the beast tide’s arrival, good news finally came from the frontlines. The alliance of the Three Sects and Six Orders finally managed to hold back the advance of the beast tide.
Last month, they successfully blocked the demon beast army within a territory of 5000 miles outside the Beast Swamp, preventing them from advancing even an inch.
Then the official tug of war between the demonic beasts and the sects began, and according to the general development trends, it depended on who couldn’t hold on first.
However, according to the records of previous beast tides, most of them developed in such a situation. As long as the sects persisted for another ten years or so, the beast tide could be quelled.
After all, as time went on, the death of high-end demonic beasts in their ranks would cause a generation gap among them and lead to their forces being unsustainable, posing no threat to the beast tide.
The growth time of demonic beasts is far too long compared to cultivators, and the sects can simply consume them. Aren’t they just dealing with mere beasts?
During this time, however, the sects must also ensure that they don’t make mistakes themselves, be strictly on guard, and not be taken lightly, in order to safely endure the most difficult years of confrontation.
Of course, the upper echelons of the Three Sects and Six Orders couldn’t help but relax, their tense nerves gradually easing.
The unusual situation in the second year of the previous beast tide had shocked them greatly, even making preparations for the Dan Ding Sect to join the battle.
Fortunately, the outcome was eventually favorable. This change in the situation of the beast tide had the most direct impact on Liang Sheng, as the number of pill refining tasks assigned to him returned to the same level as in the first year.
This allowed Liang Sheng to have more time for cultivation. He thought that the situation would get better and better in the coming years, but then it seemed like a joke played by the heavens.
The confrontation between the sect and the demonic beasts hadn’t caused any major waves, and there was no sign of any changes in the situation.
Indeed, the demonic beasts had been dying, but the sect cultivators had also been suffering casualties. This balanced situation continued until the tenth year of the beast tide’s arrival, which was when the Three Sects and Six Orders finally realized that something was wrong.
