Zhao Hai immediately replied, “Less than four hours away.”
Kong Miao looked at the Xu Race and then nodded as he said, “We should have enough time. Once they discover that the Xu Race has disappeared, their next target would be us. This place is far away from our stronghold, we still have to defend. I can only hope that the reinforcements from the Giant Spirit Realm would arrive sooner.”
Zhao Hai nodded, then he turned to Xu Wuzun who was leading the Xu Race. Then he said, “Grandmaster, we should tell Xu Wuzun about this. This will give him enough motivation to urge his people.”
Kong Miao nodded, then he said, “You do it.” Zhao Hai nodded. Although he already demonstrated his strength, the Buddhists still held the World of Cultivaiton’s authority here in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. Kong Miao was being groomed by the Buddhists, so Zhao Hai had to be polite towards him. He doesn’t want any misunderstandings to occur between the two of them.
Zhao Hai arrived by Xu Wuzun’s side and then gave a salute before saying, “Your Excellency.”
Xu Wuzun looked at Zhao Hai with a complex expression. He naturally knew that Zhao Hai was formidable. But through constant contact with him, he discovered that Zhao Hai wasn’t only formidable, he was also very wise. In Xu Wuzun’s mind, the real threat in the World of Cultivation’s group wasn’t Kong Miao and his Ten Thousand Transformations Staff, it was Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai’s most terrifying talent was persuading people to do what he wanted them to do. Even if you can find a reason to refute him, you would eventually find that it was useless in the end.
In the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, strength was respected. Zhao Hai’s strength has won the respect of the Xu Race. Whether it was Xu Wuzun or other people, when facing Zhao Hai, they would have to give him a few points of respect.
Because of this, Xu Wuzun returned his salute and said, “Mister Zhao Hai, is there a problem?”
Zhao Hai looked around at the Xu Race people who were entering the transmission formation, then he sent Xu Wuzun a voice transmission, “Your Excellency, we need to speed up. The Hundred Treasures Realm is coming over. They would arrive here in about three hours.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Xu Wuzun’s expression couldn’t help but change. He replied, “Is your information accurate?”
Zhao Hai nodded, “You can rest assured. We’re already allies in this situation, we get no benefits in deceiving you. We need to send everyone over in three hours.”
Xu Wuzun nodded. He was really thankful that he clan agreed to the proposal of the World of Cultivation almost immediately. If things slowed down by a bit, then the Xu Race might have suffered an attack.
Xu Wuzun said, “How many people are coming?”
Xu Wuzun nodded. He didn’t expect the Hundred Treasures Realm to send 3000 people this time. People from high-grade realms are truly overbearing. If it weren’t for the World of Cultivation, then the Xu Race wouldn’t be able to get some breathing room. Xu Wuzun couldn’t help but rejoice.
Xu Wuzun replied to Zhao Hai, “I’ll make everyone speed up. I’ll guarantee that we’ll finish in one hour. I ask Mister and Grandmaster to not worry about it.”
Zhao Hai nodded, and then he said, “I’m not worried about the time. Instead, I want to leave behind a diversion once we leave. It would be good if we’re able to hold off the Hundred Treasures Realm for a while. This would give us more time. Once the Hundred Treasures Realm discover that they couldn’t do anything to you, they would certainly go for the World of Cultivation. Then we can buy even more time for the Giant Spirit Realm to arrive.”
Xu Wuzun agreed to the plan. He looked all around him and said, “We can make arrangements right now. No matter what arrangements Mister Zhao Hai wants, it won’t be a problem. As long as we can hold off the Hundred Treasures Realm, I don’t mind having the Octopus Islands destroyed.”
Zhao Hai nodded, “I’ll go report back to Grandmaster Kong Miao before starting.” Xu Wuzun nodded. Then Zhao Hai cupped his fist before turning around and leaving. At the same time, Xu Wuzun urged his people to move faster.
When Zhao Hai returned to Kong Miao’s side, Kong Miao looked towards Xu Wuzun’s direction and asked, “How did it go?”
Zhao Hai replied, “I’ve already informed them. Grandmaster, I’m planning on setting a trap in the Octopus Islands. This way, we can hold them off here for a while and buy us some time.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Kong Miao stared for a moment, then he frowned and said, “Will it work? You should know that the Hundred Treasures Realm can invite people from the Scouting Race. When the time comes, those guys can break the trap.”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “We can give it a try. If it succeeds, then good. If not, then we lose nothing. In any case, the Hundred Treasures Realm will come after us.”
Kong Miao nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll leave it to you.” Zhao Hai nodded before flying up in the air.
Zhao Hai waved his hand as three Eight Cyan Imperial Chariots appeared along with the Hell King’s ship. Then Zhao Hai had the ship and the chariots collide against each other.
Zhao Hai also released his Undead and had it fight with the 1000 Undead people from the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Xu Wuzun and the others couldn’t help but pause when they saw Zhao Hai’s actions. They didn’t expect Zhao Hai to have such a formidable strength.
However, this wasn’t the end. Zhao Hai began to form mudras. His hands formed seals, his eyes closed, and his face had a gentle smile.
Seeing Zhao Hai, Kong Miao knew that this was a Buddhist Technique. However, he wasn’t able to recognize what technique it was. Then suddenly, Kong Miao’s expression changed. He cultivated the Buddhist Path and had a solid understanding about its techniques. What Zhao Hai was using right now seemed to be a spirit technique. This technique didn’t look strong. However, Kong Miao could feel the Octopus Island, everyone, everything, plants, trees, the mountains and rocks beginning to feel intimate with Zhao Hai.
This feeling was very bizarre, but it no doubt exists. This caused Kong Miao to be confused. Then he turned his head and looked at the surroundings. The entire region around the Octopus Islands seemed to become intimate with Zhao Hai. It was a formidable feeling that it almost felt tangible to Kong Miao.
Kong Miao had heard about such frightening techniques before. It was written on Buddhist records. A technique that allowed communication towards the myriad creations of the universe. However, this technique only existed in legends, only heard not seen.
Kong Miao heard about Buddhist Experts in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield that were able to use this technique. However, he didn’t expect to see Zhao Hai do it. Kong Miao lowered his head and chanted the names of Buddha. He couldn’t help but be more curious about Zhao Hai.
If it weren’t for Zhao Hai’s detailed background, Kong Miao would have thought that he was an undercover disciple of a formidable Buddhist Sect in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. But this thought rapidly vanished in Kong Miao’s mind. If there’s such an outstanding disciple like Zhao Hai in a Buddhist Sect, they would never be willing to let him go undercover alone.
What Zhao Hai was currently using was the Infinity Technique. The Infinity Technique was a supporting technique that allowed communication with the universe. Zhao Hai knew that the Scouting Race had powerful abilities and could uncover everything that happened in the Octopus Islands. And because he knows this, Zhao Hai used the Infinity Technique to see if the Scouting Race could break through it.
The Scouting Race’s ability to reconstruct a scene was actually a type of Divergent Technique. But Divergent Techniques were greatly varied in levels. Zhao Hai was very confident in his Buddhist Techniques. After all, all of them had faith power as their core. Therefore, Zhao Hai wanted to see if the Scouting Race could defeat these faith power techniques. If it could be broken, then Zhao Hai needed to guard against this race. If it can’t, then that would mean that Octopus Island would be able to hold off the Hundred Treasures Realm for a few days. When the time comes, the Giant Spirit Realm’s reinforcements should have arrived.
After using the Infinity Technique, Zhao Hai returned to Kong Miao’s side and said, “Grandmaster, everything is prepared.” Kong Miao didn’t say anything and just nodded as he turned towards Xu Wuzun and the others. Presently, only ten Xu Race members were left. After them, Zhao Hai, Kong Miao, and Xu Wuzun would enter. Once they leave, the Octopus Islands would be deserted.
Kong Miao and Zhao Hai arrived beside Xu Wuzun. Xu Wuzun looked at the Octopus Islands and sighed. Zhao Hai faintly knew what Xu Wuzun was thinking about. Octopus Islands have been the base of the Xu Race for a very long time. Now that they were leaving, it was understandable to feel uncomfortable inside.
Zhao Hai didn’t push and just waited for Xu Wuzun as he gave a last glance towards their home. Xu Wuzun then looked at Kong Miao and Zhao Hai and said, “Let’s go.” A flash of white light appeared as they vanished from the formation.
Once Zhao Hai and the others left, a few Xu Race clansmen appeared and destroyed the transmission formation. Moreover, they made it appear that the formation was destroyed by the battle.
