Chapter 1616 – Zhu Rong’s Treacherous Plan
Zhao Hai slowly opened his eyes. His eyes were no longer as bright as before, but instead they gave people a very deep feeling. There seemed to be a crystal in Zhao Hai’s eyes that was constantly turning. It’s just that the crystal was very small and was hidden in Zhao Hai’s pupils.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath as he muttered, “I didn’t expect this spiritual crystal to have this use.” The reason Zhao Hai said that was because he found that there were patterns on the faces of the crystal. These patterns included forms of the 18 Buddhist Techniques, the patterns of the Sword Formation, as well as the different divergent abilities that Zhao Hai had. It was really amazing.
Moreover, Zhao Hai discovered that as long as he used any technique or ability, the spiritual crystal would quickly act and rotate. This allowed him to use techniques in a rapid manner. It made things more convenient for Zhao Hai.
Standing up, Zhao Hai chuckled and said, “It’s easy to use. It seems like I installed a computer into my head. It’s pretty good.”
Laura and the others didn’t follow Zhao Hai outside because they knew that Zhao hai would succeed. They had no reason to worry.
There were no problems with Prisonheart’s cultivation method, otherwise the scanner would have noticed something. It must be known that the scanner was from the s.p.a.ce, and the s.p.a.ce always placed Zhao Hai’s safety as a priority. Anything harmful to Zhao Hai would always be tagged. Since there were no prompts this time, then it meant that Zhao Hai could practice this cultivation method.
When he entered the villa, Zhao Hai saw Laura and the others looking at the monitor. Displayed on the screen was the current situation of the Fireweaver Headquarters.
Seeing Zhao Hai come back, Meg immediately gave him a spot to sit down, she also served Zhao Hai a cup of tea. After sitting down, Zhao Hai saw the Fireweavers inside their conference hall.However, the hall was very silent. Although there were several Immortal Experts inside, n.o.body made any noise.
Zhao Hai looked at the monitor and asked, “What’s happening? Why do these people look like they’re praying to Buddha?”
Laura chuckled and said, “They’re not praying, but they don’t know what to say. They just received information that the Buddhist Realm and the Primal Chaos Realm refused to send them any help. At the same time, their subordinate realms were beginning to surrender to the Divergent Realm and the Sword Realm. By this time, the Sword Realm has broken through the defensive line on their side. The next thing that would happen would be the three realms converging on the Fireweaver Headquarters. Their Patriarch is currently asking everyone for suggestions, but as you can see, n.o.body has any good plans.”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai also chuckled. It seems like the Fireweavers were at their end. If they didn’t want to lose a lot, then the only thing they could do was withdraw from the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield.
After some time, a Fireweaver Elder said, “Patriarch, I think we should resist. When we attacked the Hundred Treasures Realm along with the Giant Spirit Realm, the Hundred Treasures Realm resisted and they finally won. If the Hundred Treasures Realm can do this, we can do it as well.”
Everyone looked at the person who talked with an unfriendly gaze. Naturally, this matter was taboo to the Fireweavers, n.o.body dared to raise it before.
This person didn’t care, he looked at everyone and said, “Our Fireweaver Race is strong. Although we’re losing a lot of subordinate realms, the strength of our race is still solid. As long as we can resist for some time, the Buddhist Realm and the Primal Chaos Realm would certainly consider our proposal.”
Another Immortal Expert sneered and said, “That’s easy to say. First, the Hundred Treasures Realm were able to block us because they gathered their entire strength along with their subordinate realms. Also, they have reinforcements. Those realms from the Land of Chaos wouldn’t accept our existence there. We are different. The Buddhist Realm and the Primal Chaos Realm must have received benefits otherwise they would have cared about our situation. If they don’t send troops, then we’re only increasing our casualties by resisting.”
A lot of Fireweavers agreed with this take. Another Elder said, “When we attacked the Hundred Treasures Realm, we didn’t go with our full power since we’re guarded against the Divergent Realm and Sword Realm. But now, the Hundred Treasures Realm, Divergent Realm, and Sword Realm can attack us with our full strength. Blocking them will not be easy.”
A lot of Elders nodded their heads. But the Elder who talked prior stood up and loudly said, “So do you want to run away like this? Give up everything we have in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield? You cowards!”
Another Elders stood up and replied, “Who are you callin coward? Do you think we don’t consider the Fireweaver Race? What’s our current situation? How much have we lost in the past two battles? Do you want all of us to die here? If all our experts die, how will we survive in the future? When the time comes, even if we withdraw from the battlefield, we wouldn’t have any strength left to come back.”
The other Elder replied, “We can’t leave like this. We cannot just run away without a fight!”
Both sides continued to quarrel as the Fireweaver Patriarch Zhu Rong closed his eyes. After some time, he opened his eyes and said, “Shut up. Do you know what you all look like right now? You’re Immortal Experts, but you’re quarrelling like children. Aren’t you ashamed?”
Hearing this, the two Elders stopped talking and sat down. Zhu Rong looked at everyone and said, “The three realms are pus.h.i.+ng hard against us and we can’t stop them. Instead of losing even more people, it’s better to retreat early.”
Some Elders nodded their heads while some were angry. Zhu Rong looked at them and said, “But it would be wrong if we leave without doing anything. We need to make the three realms feel the consequences of their action. Pa.s.s the order. Collect all of our gunpowder and bury them under the conference hall. Then prepare a time delay formation. Leave a few people behind to defend when we retreat. Hold them for some time before retreating to the transmission formation. Then we blow the gunpowder up. The three realms aren’t familiar with our headquarters, so it’s impossible for them to find out about the gunpowder. As long as they enter our headquarters, they will certainly lose a lot when it explodes. Not only would we teach them a lesson, we also wouldn’t lose a lot of people.”
Hearing Zhu Rong’s words, the Fireweaver Elders’ eyes shone. All Immortal Experts stood up and bowed as they said, “According to the Patriarch’s command.” Then they all stood up and left.
Zhu Rong looked out from the conference hall and said, “Since you’re making it difficult for me, then I’ll make it difficult for you.”
Hearing this, Zhao Hai could feel a cold sweat. To be honest, he didn’t expect Zhu Rong to be this ruthless. He actually plans to use this method to deal with them. If Zhao Hai wasn’t spying on the headquarters, then the Hundred Treasures Realm would definitely fall for the trap.”
Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, since we know their plan, what do you plan to do next? Will you tell Elder Mu and the others?”
Zhao Hai was now completely calm, he smiled faintly and said, “I’ll inform Elder Mu. But this isn’t necessarily bad for the Hundred Treasures Realm. Haha. I’ll head out first. Tell me if something else comes up.” Then his body flashed as he left the s.p.a.ce.
After coming out of the s.p.a.ce, Zhao Hai immediately went to Mu Yao’s cabin. It has been several hours since he entered the s.p.a.ce. At this time, the Divergent Realm and the Hundred Treasures Realm have taken their rest. They were ready to depart.
When he arrived Zhao Hai said, “Elder, it’s Zhao Hai.”
Mu Yao’s voice was heard, “Little Hai, come in.” Zhao Hai complied and then entered. The cabin was specially designed to isolate noise. n.o.body from outside could hear any sounds from the inside.
Upon entering, Zhao Hai gave Mu Yao a salute and said, “Elder, I have some information.”
Mu Yao nodded and said, “No need to be polite. What is it?”
Zhao Hai replied, “The Fireweavers are planning to run away.”
Hearing Zhao Hai, Mu Yao couldn’t help but stare, then he got up and said, “Are you sure?”
Zhao Hai nodded, “I’m sure. They made this decision when they found out that the Primal Chaos Realm and the Buddhist Realm have no intentions to help them. But the Fireweavers are unwilling to just retreat, so they rigged their headquarters with all of their gunpowder. So when our three realms enter, they would explode their gunpowder, causing us to lose a lot of people.”
Mu Yao stared, his expression changed as he said, “Is that so? The Fireweavers are truly ruthless. This is not good. We need to tell the Divergent Realm. Otherwise, they will suffer a huge loss.”
Just as Mu Yao was about to go out, he discovered that Zhao Hai remained in place. He looked at him and asked, “Little Hai, what’s the matter?”
Zhao Hai looked at Mu Yao and said, “Elder, I think we shouldn’t tell this to the Divergent Realm.”
Mu Yao stared, but from the look of Zhao Hai’s face, he understood what he meant. Mu Yao couldn’t help but hesitate as he said, “But if that’s the case, then the Hundred Treasures Realm will also lose a lot. That would be bad for us.”
