Twelve hours later, Yao Meng, who was a good friend of Ji Hao's, arrived with his army.
Leaving his army hundreds of miles away, Yao Meng and a few trusted commanders came to meet Ji Hao. Seeing the iron wall on the eye of White Dragon River, Yao Meng couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
"F * ck him! Who is this White Dragon River God? How come he's so rich? "
Yao Meng's eyes shone with a green light as he stared at those strong bows held in the hands of those water-kind spirit creatures, but couldn't say a word. Si Water territory wasn't a rich territory. In Yao Meng's army, he had no more than ten-thousand bows of this level.
As a marquis and earl, his own armory wasn't even as rich as that of a water-kind leader. Yao Meng felt a bit sour in his heart.
"Gong Gong appreciates him, so he surely has some abilities." said Ji Hao. Just now, Ji Hao carefully searched along White Dragon River for a while with his spirit power. By now, this million-miles-long river was thoroughly explored by him.
White Dragon River was vast, surrounded by towering mountains. Few human clans lived in this area.
Therefore, all rare and precious mineral lodes in this area were owned by the river God. Countless water-kind spirit creatures under his command served as coolies. During the past countless years, countless mineral lodes had been emptied in this area.
Only according to what Ji Hao had found, he had already found over ten-thousand differently sized mines under the flowing water of the White Dragon River. Some of these mines were dug hundreds of miles deep, and a few, which contained extremely rich magic crystals, were dug to over ten-thousand miles deep.
These mining pits became the best breeding bases for water-kind spirit creatures in White Dragon River.
These mining pits were filled with fast-growing aquatic plants and algae. Countless fast-growing small fishes and shrimps lived in those aquatic plants. Large numbers of water-kind spirit creatures lived in these mining pits. Every day, their job was to eat, drink, and lay eggs.
Human beings could only lay one egg per year, but these water-kind spirit creatures could lay tens, even hundreds of thousands of eggs at a time.
Ji Hao scanned across with his spirit power and found that different sized eggs of water-kind spirit creatures were thickly placed in some mines. Countless small water-kind spirit creatures, who hadn't gained their own intelligence yet, had been fighting and devouring each other in those mines.
Such a tremendous water-kind spirit creature population, added with the rich mineral resources around White Dragon River, after hundreds of years of operation, White Dragon River God could purchase tens of millions of powerful bows and crossbows from the non-humankind. Therefore, it shouldn't be a big problem to make a rough estimation.
Ji Hao told Yao Meng about his discovery. Yao Meng was both envious and angry. He gasped for a few breaths of cold air, and his whole face looked a bit uncomfortable. Apparently, if the defensive power of this river eye wasn't so great, Yao Meng and his warriors would have rushed up long ago and robbed these rich water-kind spirit creatures.
Another day later, Si Wen Ming and around ten marquises and earls, who were close to Ji Hao, left their armies and hurriedly rushed over with a few powerful guards.
Chatting with Ji Hao for a short while, the newcomer walked up to the river eye and sneakily observed the defense of the river eye. Seeing this, everyone gasped in shock.
"This … This is too much!" Said Si Wen Ming with a dark face, "Back then, Emperor Xuanyuan said that the heaven had fallen, and all divine Gods in the world should be conferred titles by human emperors. But before this was done, Emperor Xuanyuan passed the throne to us, and disappeared. "
Stomping his foot against the ground, Si Wen Ming pointed at the surging water of White Dragon River, sneered, and said, "Such a White Dragon River should belong to our humankind, and all mineral resources should belong to our humankind!"
Gnashing his teeth, Si Wen Ming snorted coldly and said, "Look at this. Those rare mineral resources were stolen by those spirit creatures, sent to the non-humankind, and traded for weapons to slaughter our humankind. This kind of thing must never happen again! "
Ji Hao stared at the eighteen floating mountains with a cold face.
At night, the wind in the mountains was strong. The wind blew across the floating mountains, making them drag the chains down below and let out a buzzing noise.
On the mountains, lanterns were lit up one after another. Many spirit creatures were patrolling around with torches in their hands.
A lighthouse was built on the mountaintop, with unknown pearls placed in it. At night, those water-tank-sized pearls glowed with a dazzling light. The light gathered by the large shells in the lighthouse shone brightly, transforming into dragon-like beams of light that shone towards all directions.
The snow-like white light swept across the sky, illuminating the surrounding woods even brighter than the sun. Wherever the white and cold light reached, everything seemed to turn transparent. Ji Hao and the others were shocked to find out that this light could penetrate hundreds of meters deep into the ground, and even the worms and earthworms hiding deep underground could be clearly seen.
"Attack with force, or?" Looking at such a strong defense, Si Wen Ming made a beheading gesture.
When he asked the question, his face was serious, and his tone was heavy.
Different from those disorderly crowd that was wiped out a couple of days ago, this water army under the river God's command was clearly an elite force that was carefully organized by Gong Gong. Their morale, discipline, equipment, and personal strengths were all largely different from those disorderly crowd.
The more elite the enemy was, the more important it was to destroy them. Otherwise, if the giant toad sent out endless reinforcements, things would get even worse.
However, this White Dragon River army was so strong. If they truly launched a fierce attack, how many would die?
The group of marquises and earls who came together with Si Wen Ming showed bitter looks on their faces. Looking at the eighteen floating mountains, they didn't know what to say for a while. This time, all of their territories were severely damaged, and so were their people and warriors. The power of their clans had already been largely weakened.
Attacking the river eye with a weary army, the result might be something they didn't want to see.
"Uncle Wen Ming, let me go in and see what's going on in there!" Ji Hao remained silent for a while, pondered carefully, then finally said, "If there are truly things harmful to our humankind in there, we have to destroy them even at the cost of our lives. If there's nothing important in there, we can just surround the river eye, but not attack. "
Ji Hao said in a deep voice, "We can't let our brothers die under the strong bows of those water-kind creatures, can we? We're all raised by our parents. How many years will it take for these elite warriors to grow up? If too many of them are injured or killed, I would be sad too! "
The group of marquises and earls nodded, looking at Ji Hao with kindness.
Ji Hao smiled. Before Si Wen Ming stopped him, the golden bridge flew out from between his eyebrows. This time, the golden bridge didn't glow. Instead, it transformed into a gust of wind and wrapped Ji Hao up, silently merging with the night breeze. Then, it easily flew to the enormous whirlpool under the eighteen floating mountains.
Within the span of a few breaths, Ji Hao reached above the whirlpool. Carefully observing the whirlpool and making sure no other ambushes were hiding in it, Ji Hao covered the power vibration released from his body with the Pan Xi divine mirror, then carefully crawled into the whirlpool.
