Chapter 1039 – Five Element Killing Formation
The world has no certainties!
This was something that everyone who study magic formations knew. In fact, Zhao Hai believes that this sentence was also true for those who study magic formations in the Cultivation Realm.
This statement was also true regarding the Divine Five Element Killing Formation. It was the strongest formation that Zhao Hai had seen. It could strangle both yin and yang of the five elements. It could also retaliate against spiritual attacks. One might even say that it was almost perfect.
However, such near perfection still had to make way for an out. Otherwise, the formation wouldn"t have been successfully established.
In fact, for those who set the Five Element Killing formation, this out was the requirement that one needs to accomplish. As for those who wanted to try other methods in order to break the formation, it was almost impossible for them to succeed.
This was the unique point of the Five Element Killing formation. As for the other formations, as long as you find a weakness to break them, then they could do it. But this wouldn"t work on the Five Element Formation. If one couldn"t accomplish the requirements of the formation, then one wouldn"t be able to break it.
Strictly speaking, the Five Element Killing Formation couldn"t be identified into a type of formation. Instead, it can be said that it was a mix between a formation and a form of thought. It didn"t need formation flags nor formation disks, instead it needed the thoughts of those who set it up. Because of this, the formation couldn"t be broken using conventional methods.
And now, Zhao Hai"s sea of knowledge was surrounded by the five element light wall. Any spiritual force that had malicious intent towards Zhao Hai would be attacked by the light wall. And there was only one way to break this light wall, it was either by Zhao Hai dissipating it by himself, or if the Hundred Spirit Tree was removed from the s.p.a.ce.
n.o.body else can achieve these requirements other than Zhao Hai. Therefore, Zhao Hai wasn"t worried about the formation in his sea of knowledge being broken.
However, Zhao Hai will certainly make good use of the Five Element Killing formation. In fact, the s.p.a.ce had already extracted the properties of the formation and then unified it with Zhao Hai"s staff. In other words, Zhao Hai can place his own Five Element Killing Formation. But this time, the formation that Zhao Hai could arrange was in no way comparable to the one arranged by the Hundred Spirit Clan.
There"s also another characteristic to the Five Element Killing Formation, its height went according to the strength of the people establis.h.i.+ng it. And with Zhao Hai"s present strength, he certainly wouldn"t be able to match the Divine Five Element Killing Formation made by the Hundred Spirit Clan. After all, the Divine Five Element Killing Formation was set up by 100 high-ranked Immortals from the Hundred Spirit Clan.
Zhao Hai slowly opened his eyes. He was also made aware that the Five Element Killing Formation in the Underworld had completely vanished. At this time, there would be no forbidden land in the Underworld.
Zhao Hai"s figure moved as he appeared inside the Snake King"s Domain. The Snake King wasn"t actually inside its area. It was waiting for Zhao Hai in a place not far away from the light wall. This touched Zhao Hai somewhat.
Zhao Hai found the Snake King and they returned to its domain. He also told the Snake King that there wouldn"t be anything attacking them in the future. They can now go to the central region. After that Zhao Hai went back to the s.p.a.ce.
At this point, Zhao Hai"s territory in the Underworld couldn"t be said to be small. Naturally, this included the Dark Creature Domain. Now that the Dark Creatures had been subdued by Zhao Hai, their territory would naturally be his. However, Zhao Hai didn"t plan to use the Dark Creatures to help him fight.
When Zhao Hai returned to the s.p.a.ce, he saw Laura and the others looking at the s.p.a.ce in confusion. After seeing Zhao Hai come back, Laura immediately said, "Brother Hai, the formation arranged by the Hundred Spirit Clan just disappeared."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "I know. The Five Elements Killing Formation has been withdrawn by the s.p.a.ce and placed inside my staff. Moreover, another Five Element Killing Formation is protecting my sea of knowledge." Then he relayed what happened to Laura and the others.
The women began to understand what happened, then they couldn"t help but feel afraid. Laura said, "I didn"t expect the Hundred Spirit Clan to be that careful. It"s good that Brother Hai has a tender heart and didn"t destroy their corpses. Otherwise, we wouldn"t have obtained the Hundred Spirit Tree."
Zhao Hai nodded with a smile as he said, "You wouldn"t expect the abilities of the Hundred Spirit Tree."
When Zhao Hia"s said this, Laura and the others began to antic.i.p.ate his next words, they immediately urged him to continue. Then Zhao Hai told them about the function of the Hundred Spirit Tree. The women didn"t expect the Hundred Spirit Tree to grow an island, and these islands could actually go into outer s.p.a.ce.
The group began to understand how extraordinary the tree was. Zhao Hai had the same reaction as them, even he didn"t think that the tree would be this formidable.
As Zhao Hai looked at the Hundred Spirit Tree, he suddenly said, "Cai"er, come here quick."
Cai"er immediately appeared by Zhao Hai"s side. Then Zhao Hai pointed to the Hundred Spirit Tree and said, "Cai"er, pay attention to the Hundred Spirit Tree. After 100 days, the tree would die. But before it completely withers, make sure to harvest its parts for medicine. For now, collect some leaves so that everyone can drink it as tea."
Cai"er complied, then she looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, can"t we just accelerate the area around the Hundred Spirit Tree?"
Zhao Hai stared, he forgot about this point. Now that Cai"er reminded him, Zhao Hai thought it through before he said, "Alright, let"s do that. I forgot about it, Cai"er is truly smart."
When Cai"er heard Zhao Hai"s praise, she couldn"t help but smile like a young lady. Then she went on to accelerate the area around the Hundred Spirit Tree.
But just as Cai"er was about to begin, the s.p.a.ce issued a prompt, "Unable to accelerate time around the selected area. Host"s level didn"t reach the requirement. Hoping the host to work harder."
Zhao Hai stared, then she looked at Cai"er and said, "What happened? How is my level insufficient for time acceleration?"
Cai"er shook her head and said, "I don’t know, this is the first time I"ve encountered this. Normally, time would accelerate no matter what. It"s possibly because the Hundred Spirit Tree is too high-leveled."
Zhao Hai nodded, "That seems to be it. In any case, we can still wait until 100 days are up. When the time comes, we would have our own floating island."
Cai"er nodded. Laura and the others also heard the prompt, so they ran over. After hearing Zhao Hai"s words, Laura said, "Brother Hai, this Hundred Spirit Tree is a treasure of the heavens and the earth, and we"re already lucky to get our hands on it. It doesn"t matter if we wait."
Zhao Hai nodded, "Obtaining the tree is a great fortune. It is truly worth the wait. Let"s go back inside. Cai"er, please fetch us a couple of leaves. Let"s make some tea to drink." Cai"er nodded. Then Zhao Hai led Laura and the others back into the villa.
After the group had sat down, Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Hai, we"ve already unified the Resistance Army as well as conquered the Dark Creature Domain. What do you plan to do next? Do you deal with the Dark Temple, or the Neutral Alliance?"
Zhao Hai thought about it for a moment and said, "We"ll go against the Dark Temple next. The Resistance Army still has business relations with the Neutral Alliance. Going against the Alliance at this time would just push them towards the Dark Temple. Let"s take a step back and look at the Alliance"s actions. Once we destroy the Dark Temple, then even the Neutral Alliance would not be able to do anything to us. At the same time, we can also make use of the Dark Creatures. If the Alliance plans anything, we can have the Dark Creatures deal with them."
Laura nodded, "That"s also good. Brother Hai, how about the Blood Spirit Beasts? When do you plant to capture them?"
Zhao Hai paused before he answered, "Let"s wait for a couple of days. After a few days of rest, I will proceed to capture some Blood Spirit Beasts. I"m sure the Dark Temple still had people stationed along the Blood River. If I went to capture Blood Spirit Beasts, then I would be announcing my existence to them. When the Dark Temple gets word about me, then that would be my declaration of war."
Laura nodded, "I reckon we should call Addison and the others over to make them prepare. After you capture the Blood Spirit Beasts, we shall immediately begin our war with the Dark Temple. Lizzy, Megan, are there any issues with the Undead army?"
Lizzy and Megan shook their heads. Then Lizzy replied, "There are no problems on our part. But Big Brother Hai, you should make a map of the Dark Temple"s territory. This way, it would be more convenient to fight against them."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Rest a.s.sured, I will make sure to do so. I will use these couple of days to map out the Dark Temple"s territory. We still aren"t sure about how big the Underworld is. If we cannot completely eradicate the Dark Temple and they hide somewhere, then it would be troublesome if they hit us in the future."
Laura nodded and said, "The Underworld is truly huge. Even Ancient Lich like Gimreden aren"t aware to what extent. I"m afraid it wouldn"t be easy."
Zhao Hai replied, "It doesn"t matter. No matter how big it is, it surely has an end point. The Underworld would be our back garden in the future, we need to grasp into every inch of this land."
Chapter 1040 – Target, Blood River, Depart!
Laura nodded. She agreed to Zhao Hai"s decision. If they cannot a.s.sure complete security in the Underworld, then they would have to constantly worry about hidden dangers all the time.
Zhao Hai looked at the group and said, "Alright, let"s not think too much about it. This time, I intend to find the Blood River"s source. The Blood River is able to produce so much Blood Spirit Beasts, so its source should be extraordinary. Perhaps it"s another treasure."
Laura smiled and said, "Brother Hai, now that you"re getting richer and richer, you"re beginning to look at treasures as though they are gold coins. You shouldn"t expect too much."
Zhao Hai laughed. At this time, Meg arrived while bringing a pot of tea. She placed it on the table and gave Zhao Hai and the others one cup each. Then she smiled and said, "Young Master, have a taste. This is tea made from the leaves of the Hundred Spirit Tree."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked down at the teacup. The cup was white porcelain, inside it was a light green tea. He could taste the delicate fragrance even before he drank it. As soon as the fragrance entered his nose, it dashed straight into his head, clearing it up from distracting thoughts.
Just with the smell, one would know how good the tea was. Zhao Hai proceeded to take a little sip. It was a bit bitter, but it was very fragrant. The moment he drank it, Zhao Hai felt every single pore in his body breathing. It was a fantastic feeling.
Zhao Hai closed his eyes and savoured the taste for some time. Then he let out a long breath and said, "This flavor is fantastic. Meg, prepare some leaves and send them to WIld Dragon Island for Grandpa Green and the others to consume. This thing can supplement spiritual force, it should be very useful for them."
Meg gave a nod. Cai"er also took a cup to drink. After hearing Zhao Hai, she couldn"t help but turn her head and said, "Young Master, we should try having the leaves a.n.a.lyzed in the Scanner. Let"s see if it can be matched with other herbs inside the s.p.a.ce, making it better. What do you think?"
Zhao Hai nodded, "We might as well try making herbal tea. However, we shouldn"t lose this fragrance, otherwise the experience wouldn"t be good."
Cai"er nodded, then her body flashed as she disappeared. Zhao Hai didn"t follow behind, it really wasn"t worth it for him to personally go to the Scanner. The result would be printed anyway.
Before long, Cai"er came back, on her hand was a piece of paper with a formula for herb tea. Zhao Hai looked at the recipe, it seems to be made with dozens of herbs that can be found in the s.p.a.ce. He returned the paper to Cai"er and said, "Meg, please try making this herb tea along with Cai"er. Then hand the formula over to Wild Dragon Island as well."
Meg nodded and then followed Cai"er. Laura looked at their backs and faintly smiled, "The s.p.a.ce is truly convenient with Meg and Cai"er. As long as matters stay normal, the family"s matters would always be handled by them."
Zhao Hai smiled, his face had a gentle look. Speaking of which, among Zhao Hai"s women, he was with Meg the longest. However, Meg had the least exposure because she spends most of her time taking care of Zhao Hai"s trivial matters. Because of this less conspicuous position, she simply cannot attract anybody"s attention.
However, Zhao Hai knew that without Meg, he wouldn"t be able to take care of his basic necessities. Meg understood Zhao Hai the most, and she was the one who could take care of him the best. Zhao Hai could smoothly enjoy his downtimes largely thanks to Meg"s efforts.
After drinking another sip of his tea, Zhao Hai looked back at the monitor. His blood needles were then sent scouring through the Dark Temple"s Domain, investigating and recording the terrain.
After releasing the blood needles, Zhao Hai called Addison and the others into the s.p.a.ce. Addison used the past few days to integrate the entire Resistance Army into one ent.i.ty. But this integration happened mostly under wraps. They still did business with the Alliance. Nothing changed in the trades, there simply wasn"t any way for the Alliance to find anything wrong.
Actually, there were a lot of Undead from both the Neutral Alliance and the Dark Temple that were roaming around inside the Resistance Army"s territory. They were here in order to detect any movement inside the Army. But unfortunately, even if those Undead were experts, as long as they were sent to the s.p.a.ce, they would no longer be able to send information back. Therefore, no news about the Army"s unification reached the Neutral Alliance and the Dark Temple.
Addison lead Guli, Jiang Zheng, and the Five Element Skeletons into the s.p.a.ce"s villa. After giving their salute, Zhao Hai had the group sit down before he said, "Now that the matter with the Dark Creatures has been solved, we should begin to act against the Dark Temple. Is everything prepared?"
When Addison heard Zhao Hai, his heart couldn"t help but move, "Young Master, rest a.s.sured. We have finished our preparations. We can depart at any moment."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That"s good. But there"s no need to be anxious, it"s still too early to start. Wait for me to deal with the Blood River and the Blood River Beasts first. Then after that, we can begin."
Addison nodded. However, his expression seems to be down. He really thought that it was already time to attack the Dark Temple. He didn"t expect to wait.
Zhao Hai looked at Addison"s expression as he smiled and said, "Alright Addison, there"s no need to worry about it. Whether it be now or later, we would still be attacking the Dark Temple. As long as I"m done subduing the Blood Spirit Beasts, then we could gain the advantage of being able to retreat and attack whenever we want. Wouldn"t that be better?"
Addison nodded and said, "Yes, Young Master. I understand."
Zhao Hai looked at the group and said, "I called you over here so that you can increase your strengths using the s.p.a.ce"s plants and fiery souls. I also want you to purchase more goods from the Alliance, make them think that this is because you are promoting more Experts in order to fight each other. Also, it would be best for us to gain more King-level Experts. This way, we would be more confident in dealing with the Dark Temple."
Addison nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai with a questioning expression, "Young Master, are you going to make a move? If you do, then there"s no need for us to fear the Dark Temple."
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "Naturally I would make a move. However, you should know that there is an exceptional Expert in the Dark Temple. If I move, then I would be blocked by that person. You would have to deal with the other Experts from the Dark Temple. Understood?"
Addison and the others immediately answered, "We understand. Please rest a.s.sured."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and sent the group out. He handed all of the affairs in the Underworld over to Addison. He knew that Addison would do well. Moreover, if Zhao Hai ascends in the future, it would still be impossible for him to step in the Underworld even with the s.p.a.ce"s help. His strength at that time would be too much for the Underworld"s laws to tolerate. Because of that, he would need to leave a person behind to manage the Underworld. And Zhao Hai plans to have Addison be that person.
Zhao Hai was very relaxed in the next couple of days. He drank tea everyday and he even enjoyed the hot spring from time to time.
The blood needles had also mapped the majority of the Dark Temple"s domain over these few days. It can be said that Zhao Hai now had a certain understanding about the Dark Temple. In fact, Zhao Hai didn"t only explore the Dark Temple"s lands, he also sent some blood needles over to survey the Neutral Alliance. Since the Alliance was a potential threat, he needed to be guarded against them as well.
After Zhao Hai felt that his spirit and body had recovered to their best condition, he prepared to head towards the Blood River.
Zhao Hai persisted under the Five Element Killing Formation"s pressure for 10 hours straight. This endeavor exhausted both of his body and spirit. Because of this, Zhao Hai needed to take a good rest in order to avoid any accidents.
Zhao Hai never underestimated his enemies. He acted like a lion would when hunting a rabbit. He would do his best in order to succeed with the least loss to his side.
With the matter regarding the Blood River, Zhao Hai took a very careful stance. Addison also said that among the numerous Blood Spirit Beasts were beasts with King-level strength. Even King-level Experts would need to be careful when crossing the river. Therefore, Zhao Hai needed to be more careful this time if he wanted to succeed.
This time, Zhao Hai didn"t plan to fly alone. He called the Blood Lotus out and rode it.
The Blood Lotus was the lotus that the h.e.l.l King"s s.h.i.+p turned into. This lotus can both be large and small. This time, Zhao Hai plans to reduce the lotus" size before tunneling underground towards the Blood River. This was the method that would attract the least attention of the Dark Temple. Only when it was time to make a big move would Zhao Hai make a huge noise.
Zhao Hai originally didn"t want Laura and the others to follow him, he wanted them to stay inside the s.p.a.ce. However, Laura would have none of it. In the end, Zhao Hai caved in and allowed the women to stay inside the Blood Lotus" s.p.a.ce.
It can be said that the s.p.a.ce inside the Blood Lotus was just the same as the villa, except it didn"t have the Hundred Spirit Tree. The Blood Lotus was also very strong. If there was any danger, Laura and the others could still return to the s.p.a.ce. And since the women liked to follow Zhao Hai, he didn"t have the courage to stop them.
Everything has been prepared, Laura and the others were also inside the Blood Lotus. Zhao Hai began to head towards the Blood River. They appeared in a place not far from the River. After coming out of the s.p.a.ce, the lotus immediately tunneled underground. Both the people from the Resistance Army and the Dark Temple would not be able to detect anything.
Chapter 1041 – This is a Blood Spirit Beast?!
Zhao Hai leisurely sat inside the Blood Lotus. It can be said that the Blood Lotus was very comfortable. The lotus advances like how a flying saucer would. As it advanced, its petals would rotate, each layer at the opposite direction as the one on top of it.
Zhao Hai was currently with Laura and the others. At this time, the lotus had become as large as the palm of one"s hand while Zhao Hai and the others were small enough to stand on one"s thumb. This was a function of the Lotus that Zhao Hai named as microcosm.
.The h.e.l.l King"s s.h.i.+p also had this function. Zhao Hai used this a lot when he was dealing with the Divines. There were a lot of times when the Divines lost track of where Zhao Hai went.
One had to recognize how convenient the microcosm was. Take this time for example, it allowed Zhao Hai to make as little noise as possible as he tunneled underground. Making it less likely for the Undead on the surface to notice him.
Zhao Hai was very careful regarding these Undead. These Undead lived in the Underworld, they were experts in using spiritual force. If Zhao Hai didn"t properly consider his actions, then he would be discovered by these Undead.
Actually, Zhao Hai planned everything properly. Although these Undead had formidable spiritual force, it was impossible for them to penetrate deep below the ground. Only those who were exceptionally strong would be able to.
The place where Zhao Hai began to sneak in wasn"t far from the Blood River. After a short time, Zhao Hai discovered that the land around the Blood Lotus had began turning red. And after smelling a b.l.o.o.d.y fragrance, Zhao Hai knew that they were almost at their destination.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, Zhao Hai suddenly felt a current hitting the Blood Lotus. The Blood Lotus didn"t stop, it didn"t take long before the lotus was entirely covered with blood river water.
Zhao Hai thought that the Blood River would immediately send Blood River Beasts to attack. However, much to Zhao Hai"s surprise, nothing happened even after half an hour.
There were more things that were beyond what Zhao Hai expected. Zhao Hai thought that the Blood River had nothing other than the Blood Spirit Beasts. But after entering the river, Zhao Hai knew that there were more things inside.
Plants, animals, all of which were red, were present here. Naturally, Zhao Hai wasn"t polite and took some of these things to the s.p.a.ce.
Zhao Hai looked everywhere with curiosity. He had yet to see a single Blood Spirit Beast. This caused Zhao Hai to feel strange. During the fight between the Dark Temple and the Resistance Army, there were plenty of Blood Spirit Beasts present. How could it be possible for Zhao Hai to not meet one right now.
Laura and the others were also very curious about the surroundings. It was a completely blood red world. The river itself was red, the plants were red, the animals were red, everything around them was red.
What made Zhao Hai feel strange was the fact that despite smelling like blood outside, the water in the Blood River actually had a fragrant smell.
After going forward for a half hour without coming across Blood Spirit Beasts, Laura couldn"t help but turn to Zhao Hai, "Brother Hai? Where are the Blood Spirit Beasts?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I don"t know. This is truly weird. In any case, let"s take some of the blood river"s water first."
After he said that, Zhao Hai opened a spatial rift beside the Blood Lotus. The spatial rift proceeded to suck in some blood water as well as some stone and sand nearby.
Almost immediately, the s.p.a.ce issued a prompt, "Sand and stones submerged in blood energy detected. May be used for crafting."
Zhao Hai stared, he didn"t expect that even the sand and stones would have some use.
At this moment, Zhao Hai suddenly found a few dark spots flowing with the water. Zhao Hai used his spiritual force to sweep through these spots and found that they looked like very small octopuses, they were as small as an ant, black, and had small tentacles
Zhao Hai looked at these creatures and couldn"t help but feel his scalp tingle. This was because there were too many of them. The clump was very dense, who knows how many there was inside.
Then at this moment, the little creatures stopped as one of them swam towards Zhao Hai. As soon as it arrived by the Blood Lotus, it extended its tentacles, coming into contact with the Blood Lotus" energy s.h.i.+eld.
Although this little octopus was small, one shouldn"t forget that the Blood Lotus had also reduced its size. It can be said that Zhao Hai"s current size wasn"t any bigger than this creature.
Laura and the others looked at these octopuses, their faces began to turn pale. Although they weren"t afraid of these octopuses, they felt uncomfortable and disgusted at the sight of them.
Zhao Hai wanted to take the octopus into the s.p.a.ce, but he didn"t expect it to suddenly shoot out and distance itself away from the lotus. Then Zhao Hai suddenly felt that a formidable spiritual force coming from that small octopus. Then its tentacles began to reach out, Zhao Hai didn"t know what it was doing.
But it didn"t take long before he got his answer. As the octopus" spiritual force reached into the surrounding water, the river water began to compress before turning into thick blood drop. Then this blood drop grew a head, then a hand, before turning into a Blood Spirit Beast!
Zhao Hai looked at this with shock. He didn"t expect the Blood Spirit Beasts to actually be these small octopuses. No wonder it was almost impossible to kill Blood Spirit Beasts, they were small octopuses no bigger than an ant. At the same time, their manipulation of the Blood River was exponentially greater compared to their size. Most of the time, the attacks would just touch their temporary blood bodies. One would need a very strong spiritual force in order to have the possibility of killing them.
While Zhao Hai was in a daze, the Blood Spirit Beast began to launch attacks towards the Blood Lotus. The fighting strength of the beast underwater was much greater than in the air.
Moreover, Zhao Hai discovered something strange. Although the Blood Spirit Beast had just transformed, it could still operate the surrounding waters in order to attack him.
Zhao Hai was now very curious as to how these little octopuses were able to do this. However, the attacks of the small octopus wasn"t very strong. As the octopus proceeded to attack, Zhao Hai waved his blood ghost staff, sealing the octopus inside a transparent box. Then a spatial rift opened, taking the box into the s.p.a.ce.
When the Blood Spirit Beast entered the s.p.a.ce, a prompt was heard, "Variant octopus detected. It can survive in an environment full of blood energy. After forming their blood bodies, they can perform spiritual attacks. At the same time, their spiritual force would also be amplified, allowing them to control the water 100 meters around them to attack. However, the octopus has a flaw, it can only survive in environments with dense blood energy. Asking host for permission to fix the defect. The octopus can be upgraded to be able to live in all types of water. It can command the water around it to form its own body and carry physical attacks as well as have amplified spiritual force to control the water surrounding them to attack. Since the Host already has an upgraded ability for water, the s.p.a.ce wouldn"t ask for gold for the upgrade. Because of the octopus" special ability, host"s abilities has been strengthened. Hoping for the host to work harder."
There were quite a few prompts for the small octopus, but Zhao Hai understood them all. The small octopus was practically a special being that managed to survive in the Blood River. It can use its spiritual force to compress blood and turn it into a body. Not only this, their spiritual force would also be amplified during this form.
Moreover, Zhao Hai gained another ability. Before he goes to try it, he first gave a command, "Upgrade them immediately."
Then the s.p.a.ce issued another prompt, "Fixing the flaws of the octopus. Successfully upgraded to water-controlling octopus. New octopus has been added to the s.p.a.ce"s shop. Host may purchase them there."
After this, Zhao Hai tried to control the blood river water. Zhao Hai let out his spiritual force and slowly extended it towards the Blood River. Before long, Zhao Hai could feel the blood water reacting to his spiritual force. Zhao Hai immediately commanded it to compress.
Sure enough, the river water slowly compressed into a blood drop. This drop was evidently more dense compared to the surrounding river water. Then Zhao Hai started to use his mental image to form the image of a person. The person was wearing fish scale armor and held a large military glaive in his hand. His head was also covered with a helmet while leaving his red beard to flutter along the currents. The person also had lifelike phoenix eyebrows. If one was a Chinese native, then one could recognize this person as Yunchang, General Guan Yu!
After he imagined Guan Yu"s appearance, Zhao Hai felt the blood river concentrate to form the image. He could even feel the water flowing through Guan Yu"s body. Zhao Hai knew that this was because his spiritual force had already made a mold for the body to be formed into. In this case, Guan Yu was akin to Zhao Hai"s river incarnation.
But what made Zhao Hai somewhat puzzled was the fact that after Guan Yu"s figure was formed, it didn"t need to be supplied with spiritual force any longer. Instead, the spiritual force was supplied by Guan Yu"s body in order to operate the blood. Zhao Hai felt that this feeling was quite marvelous, it was like having multiple bodies. And the other body seems to magnify his own spiritual force.
Zhao Hai thought about lifting a hand, of which Guan Yu followed. Zhao Hai felt curiosity about this new incarnation.
At this time, a Blood Spirit Beast suddenly appeared in front. This beast was in wolf-form but it didn"t have an eye. It threw itself towards Zhao Hai"s Guan Yu incarnation.
While familiarizing himself with the Guan Yu incarnation, Zhao Hai was not able to notice the Blood Spirit Beast. As he was distracted, the beast already took a chunk of Guan Yu"s flesh.
Zhao Hai felt Guan Yu"s body being bitten, but he didn"t actually feel any pain. He only felt a sensation stating that a part of the body was bitten. Guan Yu began to heal, but this time, it seems like his body has been reduced by a bit.
Zhao Hai began to understand the uses of this river incarnation. It was a type of Divine Ability that would produce a weapon for its user. Breaking this ability wouldn"t affect the user too much. If it was damaged, it would just reduce in size.
Now, Zhao Hai wanted to see the Guan Yu incarnation"s fighting strength. Therefore, Zhao Hai used the Blood Spirit Beast as a testing specimen for Guan Yu.
Guan Yu"s glaive was very quick. Although they were underwater, it seems like the river had no effect on it whatsoever. The glaive sliced the Blood Spirit Beast in half. Even though the Beast had recovered, it was now half of its original size.
Actually, Zhao Hai didn"t expect the incarnation to be this strong. One must know that the compressed blood bodies were quite formidable. These Blood Spirit Beasts were able to fight the Dark Temple, even managing to be a threat to their High-ranked experts. Zhao Hai didn"t expect these Blood Spirit Beasts to be cut in half by Guan Yu"s glaive.
Zhao Hai tried to control the surrounding blood river water. Not only could he control it properly, it seems like this control was much better now that the incarnation was around. Zhao Hai knew that this was because of the incarnation"s ability to amplify spiritual force.
Upon thinking of this, Zhao Hai couldn"t help but feel ecstatic. He quickly controlled the Guan Yu incarnation and killed Blood Spirit Beasts in the four directions. And in addition to the glaive, the surrounding water was also used to help in the battle. When a Blood Spirit Beast was cut in half, it was immediately taken to the s.p.a.ce white it was recovering. It didn"t take long for the river to turn murky from the battle.
But little did Zhao Hai know, the underwater battle had caused a huge shock to the Undead on both banks of the river. These Undead were sent by the Dark Temple as well as the Resistance Army. They weren"t mainly here to look at the Blood River, they were also here to monitor the other riverbank, afraid that the other side would try to cross. Just as the Undead were feeling calm, they didn"t expect the Blood River to surge with waves upon waves. This turbulence continued on, this caused the Undead above water to be puzzled at what was happening to the River.
