Zhao Hai looked at the Divine Mystery Sect's disciples as his eyes flashed with a smile. Then he said, "Everyone, don't show any signs of happiness. Even if you want to laugh, hold it in. What we need to do now is to do our best to move forward. As long as we reach Green Leaf Town, we won't need to be so nervous."
Zhao Hai's words weren't wrong. This was because once they reach Green Leaf Town, they would be able to go ashore. Since that place wasn't the Divine Mystery Sect's territory, the Divine Mystery Sect wouldn't dare to chase after them so brazenly.
Although the others were very happy, they didn't show any signs of happiness just like what Zhao Hai said. They continued to move forward as if nothing had happened.
Zhao Hai commanded everyone to move forward while paying attention to their surroundings. The feeling of being haunted didn't disappear. This was also what attracted Zhao Hai's attention the most.
The speed of the raft was very fast, it was even faster than when Zhao Hai and the others were using the Light Body Technique. This was mainly because the Hundred Zhang River's current was very fast. Therefore, their speed was also very fast.
A few hours later, Zhao Hai saw a small pier on the edge of the Hundred Zhang River. Zhao Hai immediately said, "Inform the brothers underwater to wear their masks and get off the raft. Swim downstream for at least ten li, then wait for us on the shore. We'll stop at the pier and go ashore." Zhao Hai nodded and said. Everyone complied and immediately notified the people underwater. The people underwater also complied. Then the various concealed breathing masks on the raft immediately left the raft and swam downstream. Meanwhile, Zhao Hai and the others controlled the raft and rowed towards the small pier on the shore.
Before long, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the pier. There were a lot of small boats and wooden rafts docked at the pier. However, nobody had seen this raft before. When they saw Zhao Hai and the others arrive, they were very curious and surrounded them.
Zhao Hai led the cultivators to carry the chest to the shore. Then he also pulled the raft to the shore. Then he untied the rope on the raft and released the air inside the sheepskin. Then Zhao Hai had the cultivators select two people to carry the sheepskin with wooden poles. Then he found four people to carry the chest. Before long, they left the pier, leaving the people at the pier dumbfounded.
These people didn't expect to see such a thing. Someone actually dismantled themselves and the boat and carried it away. This was too miraculous.
Zhao Hai didn't care so much. After he led the rogue cultivators into Green Leaf Town, he went straight to the town's largest pharmacy and bought the two boxes of herbs. Then he led the rogue cultivators around Green Leaf Town for a stroll.
Although the cultivators didn't understand what Zhao Hai wanted to do, they didn't ask. They just followed Zhao Hai. They believed that Zhao Hai wouldn't do something useless.
After walking around for a day, Zhao Hai asked about the price of a lot of things. Then he went to a very famous porcelain shop in Green Leaf Town and bought some porcelain. Then he found a small inn to stay in.
After entering the inn, Zhao Hai followed the cultivators and had a good meal. While eating, Zhao Hai transmitted his voice, "Brothers, we've been targeted the moment we arrived here. If I'm not wrong, it should be the Divine Machine Sect. However, they have already left. But since we have to put on a show, we can't let them know that we're here. Therefore, we'll rest here for the night. Tomorrow morning, we'll get up early and leave, just like any other traveling merchants. Once they're satisfied with us, we'll meet up with them."
Once we're done, we'll meet up with them. "Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai drank a cup of wine with them before returning to their rooms to rest. Sure enough, when the cultivators from the Divine Machine Sect saw them going back to their rooms to rest, they immediately withdrew and didn't follow them.
Early the next morning, Zhao Hai and the others got up and left the town with the things they bought yesterday. The people from the Divine Machine Sect didn't care about them. For traveling merchants like Zhao Hai and the others, waking up early in the morning was a very normal thing to do. Nobody cared about them.
When Zhao Hai and the others left the town, they went upstream of the Hundred Zhang River. This way, the people from the Divine Machine Sect wouldn't suspect them. After they left the town, they walked for about ten miles. After making sure that nobody was following them, they quickly took a small path and went downstream of the Hundred Zhang River.
In a forest downstream, they found the people who came here yesterday. Everyone gathered together and took a small path downstream. By noon, they were already very far away from the Green Leaf Formation. Only then did Zhao Hai let everyone release the Demonic Horses and let them gallop wildly. This time, they didn't come into contact with any cities. Whenever they came across a city, they would just go around it. Therefore, the people from the Divine Machine Sect placed most of their attention on the Arrow Tree Mountain and Green Leaf Town. Therefore, Zhao Hai and the others didn't encounter any danger.
Now, Zhao Hai could finally breathe a sigh of relief. They were no longer in the Divine Machine Sect's territory. Although they weren't far from the Divine Machine Sect's territory, they were now in the Green Leaf Sect's territory. The relationship between the Divine Machine Sect and the Green Leaf Sect could only be considered ordinary. The Green Leaf Sect wouldn't allow the people from the Divine Machine Sect to swagger around and capture people in their own territory.
This was because they were running at full speed this time. In one day, they ran more than 2000 li. This was because the road wasn't easy to walk on. Otherwise, they would've walked even further.
Zhao Hai and the others didn't find a place to rest at night. Instead, they sat on the Demonic Horses and made them continue to move forward. However, their speed was a bit slower than during the day. After another night passed, Zhao Hai and the others were already more than 5000 li away from Green Leaf Town. Zhao Hai and the others were finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Zhao Hai didn't stop. Although the relationship between the Green Leaf Sect and the Divine Machine Sect was very ordinary, their relationship with the Tyrant Saber Sect wasn't necessarily good. It could be said that their relationship with the Tyrant Saber Sect wasn't any better than the relationship between the Divine Machine Sect and the Tyrant Saber Sect. However, this time, Zhao Hai and the others didn't fight with the people from the Green Leaf Sect. The people from the Green Leaf Sect also thought that Zhao Hai and the others were blocked by the Divine Machine Sect on the Arrow Tree Mountain. Therefore, they didn't investigate too strictly and allowed Zhao Hai and the others to be free and unfettered until now.
Zhao Hai also didn't want to cause trouble in the Green Leaf Sect. Although he wasn't afraid of the people from the Green Leaf Sect, the feeling of their presence still hadn't disappeared. He was certain that the other party was still following them. If he caused trouble in the Green Leaf Sect, then they might be attacked from three sides. That would be even more troublesome. Therefore, Zhao Hai's strategy this time was to use all his strength and use the fastest speed to pass through the Green Leaf Sect's territory. Before the people from the Green Leaf Sect could react, they would have already left.
Zhao Hai's plan was very successful. The main reason was that the Demonic Horses were too fast. Moreover, their endurance was too good. They didn't need to rest at all. Before the Green Leaf Sect could react, they had already rushed through the Green Leaf Sect's territory and entered the Linjiang Sect's territory.
The Linjiang Sect wasn't a large sect. It could only be considered a medium-sized sect. However, their relationship with the Tyrant's Blade Sect was very good. Zhao Hai and the others could finally be considered safe after arriving here.
However, Zhao Hai and the others didn't plan to have too much contact with the Linjiang Sect. This was because they didn't have much time left. When they arrived at the Linjiang Sect's territory, they would have to get off the boat and walk a section of the water. Then, they would have to go ashore and walk on land to reach Yangding Mountain.
Zhao Hai roughly calculated that this journey would take at least ten days. They had already used more than ten days. If they delayed any longer, then they might not be able to reach their destination.
Zhao Hai and the others didn't have any contact with the Linjiang Sect. They directly arrived at the Linjiang Sect's riverbank and hired a boat to go downstream. After Zhao Hai and the others boarded the boat, the Shenji Sect, Green Leaf Sect, and Linjiang Sect received the news.
When the Shenji Sect and Green Leaf Sect received the news, their faces turned ugly. There was no other way. They were still looking for Zhao Hai and the others, but Zhao Hai and the others had already appeared thousands of miles away. How could their faces look good?
Zhao Hai didn't care too much about it. He led the group down the river. Soon, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the station. To be honest, this was also the Linjiang Sect's territory. Zhao Hai and the others didn't have anything to worry about.
After getting off the boat, Zhao Hai discovered that the haunting feeling had strangely disappeared. Although he didn't know what was going on, Zhao Hai knew that this was a good thing. Therefore, after he got ashore, he contacted the people of the Linjiang Sect and explained that he was in a hurry this time. Therefore, he didn't have much contact with them and asked for their forgiveness.
The relationship between the Linjiang Sect and the Tyrant Blade Sect was quite good. Naturally, they wouldn't make things difficult for Zhao Hai because of this matter. The people of the Linjiang Sect knew about Zhao Hai's position in the Tyrant Blade Sect. To put it bluntly, offending Zhao Hai was equivalent to offending the Yin-Yang Elders. Offending the Yin-Yang Elders was equivalent to offending the Tyrant Blade Sect. Under such circumstances, the Linjiang Sect naturally wouldn't offend the Yin-Yang Elders.
After contacting the Linjiang Sect, Zhao Hai and the others immediately rode their horses to Yangding Mountain. Finally, they arrived at the foot of Yangding Mountain five days earlier than the stipulated time.
Yangding Mountain wasn't far from the Linjiang Sect. However, Yangding Mountain wasn't considered a famous mountain. It wasn't even the territory of any sect. This was because this mountain didn't have any minerals and the herbs it produced were only average. Therefore, ordinary sects wouldn't want this mountain.
The reason why this mountain was chosen as the venue of the tournament was because this mountain had a special feature. Its summit was flat.
That's right, the top of the Yangding Mountain looked like the summit of a volcano from afar. The summit was flat, but the Yangding Mountain wasn't a volcano. Its summit was just a large piece of flat land. This was what made people feel strange about it.
There were many legends as to why the summit of Yangding Mountain was flat. Some said that it was because an ancient almighty fought there. In the end, the summit of Yangding Mountain was cut off by an ancient almighty. Therefore, the summit of Yangding Mountain was flat. However, this was only a legend. No one cared about why the summit of Yangding Mountain was like this. Instead, it was because of the topography of Yangding Mountain that everyone in the continent was familiar with.
