After returning to the carriage, Zhao Hai told Laura and the others about the situation. Laura and the others could only sigh, these Ghost Cultivators were really strange. The group couldn't sleep, so they chatted for a while in the living room as the sky slowly brightened up.
After eating breakfast, Zhao Hai and the others entered the town and carefully inspected the entire place. Zhao Hai first looked around the town's periphery. In the end, he discovered that there wasn't anything worth looking at. The town's periphery should really be a civilian's home, there was nothing valuable inside.
Zhao Hai and the others slowly walked towards the town. This time, Zhao Hai's eyes were on the town's escape route. Although the escape route was calculated by Laura and the others, Zhao Hai still thought that it was reasonable. The courtyards on the escape route should have something to do with the Ghost Cultivators. Therefore, Zhao Hai decided to go there and see if there were any clues left in those courtyards.
Because the town had been abandoned for too long, the wooden structures of the houses had been damaged. The courtyard doors had also collapsed, giving the place a dilapidated appearance.
Zhao Hai and the others entered one of the courtyards on the escape route. The courtyard wasn't very big, it looked like it belonged to an ordinary person. Moreover, the number of people inside shouldn't be more than five.
The courtyard was paved with bluestones. There was nothing special about it. There was also a well in the courtyard. The rooms in the courtyard were divided into the east and west rooms, as well as the main room. However, it was obvious that the east room seemed to be a storeroom, while the west room and the main room should be living quarters.
One of the courtyard's walls had collapsed, it seems like it was knocked down by something. Zhao Hai didn't pay attention to it as he walked towards the east room.
The east room had some miscellaneous items made of stone and wood, as well as some iron tools. However, the iron tools were already rusted beyond recognition. The tools made of wood and stone were also broken. The stones were also covered with moss, it was almost impossible to see their original appearance.
Zhao Hai looked at the east room, then he waved his hand and took the things inside the room to the Space. Then he threw them into the courtyard, leaving the east room empty.
Zhao Hai carefully looked at the room. The walls of the room were simply smeared with a layer of mud. But now, the mud had fallen off, revealing the stones inside.
The floor of the room was paved with bluestone, it looked very ordinary. Zhao Hai carefully looked at the room, but there was nothing to see. Zhao Hai waved his hand and the bluestone on the floor disappeared, leaving behind ordinary mud. There was nothing special about it.
Zhao Hai went outside and saw Laura and the others coming out of the main room and the west room. However, there was a trace of disappointment on their faces, it was obvious that they didn't find anything.
Zhao gently knit his brows, then he went to the west wing and the main room to take a look, but he didn't find anything. These two rooms should have been paved with stones, but the stones were moved by Laura and the others. Underneath the stones was ordinary soil, so he couldn't find anything.
Zhao Hai knit his brows, then he carefully looked at the courtyard, but he still couldn't find anything. After removing the stones from the courtyard, he still couldn't find anything. This made Zhao Hai very puzzled.
Zhao Hai frowned as he stood in the courtyard. Then he slowly closed his eyes as his body emitted a yellow light. Then the yellow light slowly disappeared into the ground. Zhao Hai was still standing there. But if a Cultivator were to use their spiritual force to check the courtyard, they wouldn't be able to find Zhao Hai. This was because Zhao Hai seemed to have disappeared from the courtyard, he seemed to have become a part of the soil. Nobody would notice him.
After some time, Zhao Hai opened his eyes and said, "I've found it."
Just as Laura and the others were about to speak, Zhao Hai's expression suddenly changed. This was because he felt several powerful auras rushing towards them. Moreover, these auras had a cold feeling to them. Zhao Hai immediately turned to Laura and the others and said, "Laura, immediately use the transmission formation to return to the sect. Find Teacher and have him locate my location. Then we'll immediately come to support. Maybe we can catch some big fishes."
When Laura and the others heard Zhao Hai, they immediately understood what Zhao Hai meant. The group didn't say anything and immediately gathered together. They also pulled Qiu Tie to their side. Then with a flash of white light, the group disappeared.
Zhao Hai stood in the courtyard as he looked at the direction where the auras came from. The auras seemed to have discovered that Laura and the others had left. The group became even angrier as they flew towards Zhao Hai's courtyard. Before long, they arrived above Zhao Hai's courtyard.
Zhao Hai looked at them and saw exactly eight people. These eight people wore black clothes as well as black masks on their faces. Their 16 eyes were coldly staring at Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai looked at the eight people and suddenly smiled faintly as he said, "Sure enough, this is your base. What's wrong? Are you still reluctant to give up on this place? Are you reluctant to give up on the materials here? "
When the Ghost Cultivators heard Zhao Hai, their eyes became even colder. One of the Ghost Cultivators said, "I didn't expect you to find out. How did you find out? "
Zhao Hai looked at the Ghost Cultivators and said, "You did a good job. You didn't leave any clues in these courtyards. There are no passages, no transmission formations, and even the warehouses where you stored your things are made of materials that can shield spiritual force. If you want to go there, you need to use a directional transmission formation. It seems like you don't really want to give up on this place. This place is still your secret base, but it's in a dormant state for the time being. When necessary, this base will be activated, am I right?"
Am I right? "The Ghost Cultivator who just spoke couldn't help but praise," You're very smart. Zhao Hai, if you join us Ghost Cultivators, I guarantee that we'll do our best to nurture you. What do you think? We Ghost Eight Greats aren't any worse than the Yin Yang Elders. "
"You really aren't any worse than us? Ghost Eight, I didn't think that you would dare to show your face. You even dared to deal with my disciples. I think you don't want to live anymore. "
Along with this voice, the Yin Yang Elders slowly flew in from outside the town. Following them were several other Cultivators. Without exception, these Cultivators were all Elders of the Tyrant's Blade School. They were all in the Teleportation Realm.
When the Ghost Eight Greats saw the Yin Yang Elders, they couldn't help but feel nervous. They immediately gathered together and formed a formation. They coldly looked at the Yin Yang Elders and the other Cultivators of the Tyrant's Blade School.
The Yin Yang Elders looked at the Ghost Eight Greats and sneered, "You eight idiots want Little Hai to join your group? Do you think Little Hai is an idiot? He just casually said a few words to drag you here. Don't forget that this is the Tyrant's Blade School's territory. You actually dared to attack our disciples in our territory. You really don't know the difference between life and death. "
When the Ghost Eight Greats heard the Yin Yang Elders, they couldn't help but stare at the Yin Yang Elders with fire in their eyes. The Ghost Cultivator who just spoke said, "Yin Yang Old Ghost, are you that confident in dealing with us? Aren't you afraid of breaking your teeth? "
"Hahahaha! Eight Greats, Eight Greats. Back then, you were a bunch of good-for-nothings. Now that I look at you, you haven't grown at all. To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed. Even if I kill you, I won't feel any sense of accomplishment. "
The Ghost Eight Greats were trembling with anger. The Ghost Cultivator in the lead said, "You talk too much nonsense. Let's see who's the real deal! Kill! "After he said that, he immediately led the charge towards the Yin Yang Elders.
After saying that, the Ghost Eight Greats charged towards the Yin Yang Elders. Their weapons also appeared in their hands. When Zhao Hai saw the weapons in their hands, he was stunned. This was because the weapons in their hands were actually Skull Hammers!
What were Skull Hammers? The Skull Hammer was a hammer that looked like a skull. However, this hammer was very powerful. It wasn't only because it was a heavy weapon, but also because of the holes in the skull. When the hammer was swung, it would emit a whining sound that sounded like the crying of ghosts.
What surprised Zhao Hai even more was that these Ghost Eight Greats seemed to know a set of joint attacks. Their movements were always in sync. When they advanced, they would advance together. When they retreated, they would retreat together.
The Yin-yang Elders were very familiar with the fighting style of the Ghost Eight Greats. Their hands moved as two long swords appeared in their hands. Their swords looked very ordinary, there was nothing special about them. However, when the swords were in their hands, they seemed to have a life of their own. Their figures moved to meet the other party's attack.
This was Zhao Hai's first time seeing the Yin Yang Elders in action. The two's movements were extraordinary. Their coordination was even more skillful. Moreover, their saber techniques were even more powerful. Soon, the Yin Yang Elders stood with the Ghost Eight Greats. The other cultivators of the Tyrant's Blade School didn't participate in the siege.
Zhao Hai carefully observed the battle between the ten people. He discovered that the ten people were fighting very quickly. Moreover, they were surrounding each other and using joint attacks. Outsiders simply couldn't interfere.
However, the Yin Yang Elders didn't have any advantage in the battle. It seems like the two sides wouldn't be able to determine a winner without exchanging several thousand moves.
Zhao Hai carefully observed for a while. He discovered that the Yin Yang Elders' joint attack technique was in accordance with the Yin Yang Dao. On the other hand, the Ghost Eight Greats' joint attack technique was in accordance with the Eight Trigrams. It would be difficult for outsiders to interfere, but this wasn't a problem for Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai turned his hand and a large black bow appeared in his hand. He also took out a meter long iron arrow and placed it on the bow. Then he pulled the bowstring and pointed the arrow at the ten people.
Zhao Hai's actions were noticed by the other Elders of the Tyrant's Blade School. Their expressions changed. Just as they were about to warn Zhao Hai not to act recklessly, they suddenly discovered that one of the Ghost Eight Greats seemed to have noticed something. His body suddenly moved and the smooth coordination between the Ghost Eight Greats disappeared. The formation of the Ghost Eight Greats couldn't help but become chaotic. At this time, the Yin Yang Elders suddenly attacked and injured two of the Ghost Eight Greats.
When the other members of the Ghost Eight Greats saw this, they fiercely waved their hands and threw out several black balls. Just as the balls flew out, they suddenly exploded. As the balls exploded, a large amount of black fog suddenly appeared in the small town. The entire town was shrouded by this black fog.
When the Cultivators of the Tyrant's Blade School saw this, they couldn't help but be startled. They immediately took out their weapons and carefully observed their surroundings. This was because they discovered that the black fog not only blocked their vision, it also blocked their spiritual force. They were afraid that the Ghost Eight Greats would attack them.
At this time, they suddenly heard a voice, "God said, let there be light. Light dispels darkness and brings warmth to all living things. Evil has nowhere to hide."
These words weren't a spell, they were spoken by Zhao Hai himself. At this time, he also used his spiritual qi to cast Light Magic.
Light element magic was the nemesis of all dark energy. And with the support of Zhao Hai's incomparably powerful spiritual qi, the effect of this light element magic was surprisingly good. The people of the Tyrant's Blade Gate felt a strong light slowly rising from the center of the town. All the dark fog that met this strong light was like snow meeting sunlight, quickly disappearing without a trace.
Before long, the entire town was once again exposed to sunlight. The people of the Tyrant's Blade School looked at each other and saw that nothing had happened to them. It was just that the Ghost Cultivators had escaped. However, the people of the Tyrant's Blade School weren't too disappointed. They knew that the Ghost Eight Greats weren't easy to deal with.
The Yin Yang Elders looked at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes. Then the two landed on the ground. Zhao Hai quickly went forward and gave a salute, "I've seen Masters. I didn't expect you to arrive this quickly."
The Yin Yang Elders smiled faintly. Then Elder Yin said, "As soon as we heard Laura's report, we immediately came. Kid, you did a good job. Right, did you find anything?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "I found something. There's a warehouse under the village. There are a lot of good things in that warehouse. It seems like the Ghost Cultivators left it here. They might have prepared it for the future. The Ghost Cultivators might have been afraid that I would discover the warehouse, so they came here to attack me."
When the Yin Yang Elders heard Zhao Hai, Elder Yang quickly said, "Check the warehouse and see if it's still there. Don't let the Ghost Cultivators take it away."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Masters, you don't need to worry. I've already moved the things out of the warehouse. They can't take it away, you can rest assured."
The Yin Yang Elders relaxed. Then they turned to the other Elders and smiled faintly, "This time, we didn't come in vain. At the very least, we managed to deal with the Ghost Eight Greats. Let's go, we'll rest here for a while. While we're at it, we'll have Zhao Hai tell us what happened."
The other Elders naturally agreed. Then Zhao Hai invited them to his carriage. Then he personally prepared some food and wine and invited everyone to drink. At the same time, he also told them about what happened along the way. Naturally, there were some things that he couldn't say. Even so, these people were surprised. They didn't think that Zhao Hai would encounter so many things along the way.
