Xia Baichuan didn't decline. He nodded and then followed Tang Jie's arrangements. Tang Jie looked at Xia Baichuan and let out a long breath.
Tang Jie had seen the Detective Race's restoration before. This restoration wasn't easy. A lot of preparation work had to be done, especially in places with chaotic spiritual energy. The more chaotic a place was, the better the preparation work. Otherwise, there would be no way to restore it.
Although Tang Jie was anxious, he also knew that this matter couldn't be rushed. It was better to be steady. After all, this was related to the lives of a thousand people.
Although Tang Jie was almost certain that his clansmen had met with misfortune, he still wanted to find out how they died. If it was just the World of Cultivation, then he wouldn't be afraid. What he was afraid of was the Giant Spirit Realm being involved in this.
Tang Jie couldn't help but be suspicious. He had some understanding of the 1000 people sent by the World of Cultivation. Although these people didn't use the artifacts that they were familiar with, it wasn't a day or two since they received the glaives. They also went through a period of training and were able to wield the glaives very well. Moreover, these 1000 people were selected from the World of Cultivation. Even if the World of Cultivation sent 3000 people, they would still be able to escape unscathed. Tang Jie had already inquired about the World of Cultivation's people before this operation. Since the World of Cultivation only sent 1000 people this time, it shouldn't be a problem for his people to deal with the people from the World of Cultivation.
Moreover, they had the help of the Xu Race. Tang Jie didn't think that the Xu Race would have the courage to betray them. The Xu Race had a bandit character, so they were very sensible. If they weren't forced, then they wouldn't dare to betray the World of Cultivation. What else could force the Xu Race to bow their heads to the World of Cultivation? The only possibility was that something happened to their people. The Xu Race were afraid of retaliation, so they could only cooperate with the World of Cultivation.
Tang Jie wasn't a fool. In the beginning, he didn't take the World of Cultivation seriously. He also didn't take this mission seriously. But after arriving at the Octopus Islands and seeing the situation there, Tang Jie couldn't help but take this mission seriously.
After taking this matter seriously, Tang Jie thought about it carefully and was able to guess what happened. However, Tang Jie still couldn't figure out the situation in the Octopus Islands. To be on the safe side, he asked his people to invite someone from the Detective Race.
Because of this, Tang Jie didn't think that this matter was done by the World of Cultivation alone. The World of Cultivation didn't have the strength to do so. Therefore, he suspected that the Giant Spirit Realm was involved in this matter. If the Giant Spirit Realm was really involved, then it meant that the Giant Spirit Realm already knew about their plan and were preparing to counterattack. If this was the case, then it wouldn't be good news for the Hundred Treasures Realm.
Although Tang Jie was arrogant and believed that he would be able to beat the people from the Giant Spirit Realm, he never underestimated them. He was a low-level cultivator who climbed up step by step. It was impossible for a cultivator to reach his level without killing people. Because of this, Tang Jie wasn't afraid of things that he had seen before. Because of these trials, although Tang Jie was confident in himself, he didn't underestimate the people from the Giant Spirit Realm. This was because he was very clear that underestimating others would only lead to his death faster.
Figuring out if the Giant Spirit Realm was involved in this matter was very important for Tang Jie and the Hundred Treasures Realm. In order to deal with the Giant Spirit Realm, the Hundred Treasures Realm had been preparing for a long time. If the deaths of their people were really related to the Giant Spirit Realm, then it meant that the Giant Spirit Realm already knew about their plan. If the Giant Spirit Realm wasn't involved, then it meant that the Giant Spirit Realm didn't know about their plan. This was crucial for the Hundred Treasures Realm's plan.
It was because of this that Tang Jie was nervous. He even invited the Detective Race over. Now that the Detective Race was here, the truth of the matter would soon be revealed. Tang Jie's mood was calm. This was because he understood that whether the Giant Spirit Realm was involved or not, the battle between the Hundred Treasures Realm and the Giant Spirit Realm was inevitable.
Xia Baichuan also knew that the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm were anxious this time. Therefore, he didn't rest for long. After taking some pills, he went out of his room.
Tang Jie has been paying attention to Xia Baichuan's situation. Seeing him come out, Tang Jie immediately went forward to greet him. Xia Baichuan quickly gave Tang Jie a salute and said, "I've seen Senior. Baichuan is ready."
Tang Jie nodded and said, "Alright, what do we need to prepare?"
Xia Baichuan looked around, then he cupped his fist and said, "Senior, please let Baichuan take a look around. We'll decide after that." Tang Jie nodded and then waved his hand.
Xia Baichuan flew around the Octopus Islands. He flew very slowly and sometimes stopped. He carefully observed every place on the island. The more he observed, the more serious Xia Baichuan's expression became. In the end, Xia Baichuan's brows were tightly knit together.
Xia Baichuan felt that the spiritual qi on the Octopus Islands and the traces of battle were very strange. However, he couldn't tell what was strange about it. From the traces of battle, it was clear that a great battle took place here. Both sides used large artifacts. Moreover, Xia Baichuan could feel the spiritual qi of the people from the Hundred Treasures Realm, the Xu Race, and the World of Cultivation from the spiritual qi fluctuations.
The Detective Race no longer focused on fighting. Instead, they focused on restoring the scene and finding the truth. Because of this, they had some understanding of the spiritual qi of various realms. Naturally, it was impossible for one person to remember the spiritual qi of all the realms in the World of Cultivation. Because of this, the Detective Race divided the World of Cultivation into several hundred regions. Each region had a specific person in charge. These people didn't need to care about the other regions, they just needed to remember the spiritual qi of their region.
Xia Baichuan was the person in charge of this region. Because of this, he was very clear about the spiritual qi of the World of Cultivation and the Xu Race.
What made Xia Baichuan puzzled was the traces of battle on the Octopus Islands. On the surface, it looked very intense. But when one looked carefully, they would discover that this wasn't the case. The battle this time was far less intense than imagined. The reason why there were so many traces was because the two sides were too close to the ground. But Xia Baichuan didn't think that this was the case.
Perhaps ordinary people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between these traces, but Xia Baichuan could. He had received professional training, so he could see the difference in a glance.
Although he didn't understand why there were such traces here, Xia Baichuan didn't jump to conclusions. This was because this was related to the Hundred Treasures Realm.
The Detective Race had a very high status in the World of Cultivation. However, they were very humble. Whether it was a high-grade realm or a low-grade realm, their attitude was almost the same. They put themselves in a very low position. It was because of this attitude that the Detective Race became the most popular group in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. Even a Nascent Soul Expert like Xia Baichuan wouldn't be robbed in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield. When the other party saw that he was from the Detective Race, they would give him some face.
The reason why the Detective Race treated people with such an attitude was because they were clear that they didn't rely on their fighting strength to have their current status. Instead, it was because they were useful to people from all walks of life. If they had a trace of arrogance, then they would offend those people. At that time, the Detective Race would fall from their position. If that happened, then the Detective Race wouldn't have a good ending.
After carefully looking at the situation on the Octopus Islands, Xia Baichuan went to Tang Jie's side. Seeing Xia Baichuan's frown, Tang Jie couldn't help but ask, "Baichuan, what's wrong? Did you find something? "
Xia Baichuan nodded and said, "There are some discoveries. I discovered that the battle on the Octopus Islands wasn't as intense as I imagined. Although there are traces of battle here, they seem to have been caused by close proximity to the ground. This isn't because of the intense battle. However, this is only my initial judgment. I still need to see how the scene looks like after I restore it. I'll make some preparations before I restore it."
Tang Jie nodded. However, his expression sank. He knew what Xia Baichuan meant. Xia Baichuan suspected that the traces were made very close to the ground. In other words, there were only two reasons for this. One was that two groups of people were fighting close to the ground. However, the possibility of this was very low. Battles between Cultivators generally wouldn't be too close to the ground. This was a habit that Cultivators had developed over the years, especially in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield.
The Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield was filled with treasures. Therefore, when two groups fought, they would generally choose to fight high up in the sky. This way, the ground wouldn't be damaged. If precious herbs were to be damaged because of the battle, then the gains wouldn't make up for the losses. Although the Octopus Islands weren't in the Ten-thousand Realm Battlefield, it was hard to change a habit that had been formed over the years. It was precisely because of this that Tang Jie didn't believe that people would fight close to the ground.
If this wasn't the case, then there was another possibility. That was, someone was deliberately doing this. In other words, this was a trap set up by someone else!
Thinking of this, Tang Jie's expression couldn't help but turn ugly. If the situation on the Octopus Islands was really a trap set up by someone else, then it meant that his previous guesses were all wrong. He had fallen into someone else's trap.
Tang Jie was a smart person. When he thought about it, he could roughly guess who it was. It should be the World of Cultivation. Their main purpose was to delay him and buy time for the World of Cultivation to inform the Giant Spirit Realm about the Hundred Treasures Realm's situation. This way, the Giant Spirit Realm would be able to send reinforcements.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was reasonable. Tang Jie's expression became uglier and uglier. At this time, Xia Baichuan was preparing to restore the scene.
