The more arrogant a person was, the more they couldn't tolerate the slightest disrespect. The more arrogant a person was, the more they couldn't tolerate their own failure. Although the Sword Spirit Nation wasn't a single person, the entire Sword Spirit Nation was filled with arrogant people. Therefore, they couldn't tolerate their own failure, they couldn't tolerate the loss of the great sword.
The great sword was the symbol of the Sword Spirit Nation's hegemony. All the people in the Soul World would look at the great sword in Greatsword City with resentment. This was because when they saw the great sword, they would think of the people in their own country who died under the great sword.
In order to let the people of other countries see the great sword, the people of the Sword Spirit Nation specially built a great sword plaza. This was to let the people of other countries see the great sword at a close distance. When those people stood at the foot of the great sword, they would feel their own insignificance and lose their determination to fight against the Sword Spirit Nation.
But unfortunately, there was no longer a great sword in the plaza. There was only a huge pit there, and that pit was originally the place where the great sword was placed.
What a disgrace! This was the shame of the entire Sword Spirit Nation! No one would have thought that such a huge sword would be stolen by someone. Moreover, it was stolen in the Sword Spirit Country. The most infuriating thing was that the Sword Spirit Country had been investigating for several months, but in the end, they couldn't find anything.
The probing of the various foreign forces was basically completed. They didn't find anything suspicious. Aside from offending a large number of people, they didn't find anything else.
Then, they investigated the clans in the country, but in the end, they still didn't find anything. There wasn't a clan in their country that was stupid enough to have ideas about the great sword. Not a single clan.
But this time, the problem was, who was the person who took the great sword away? How did he take the great sword away?
In the end, the people of the Sword Spirit Nation had to look at the person they suspected the most at the beginning. That person was Zhao Hai.
In the past five years, only Zhao Hai had been locked up by the sword. Before Zhao Hai was locked up, the sword had been there for hundreds of years, but nothing happened to it. But after a year and a half, the sword disappeared. This made people suspect that it was Zhao Hai.
However, Zhao Hai did not appear on the continent. He did not appear on the continent, nor did he appear in the Lion Soul Nation. It was as if Zhao Hai had disappeared along with the giant sword.
But now that there were no clues, the people of the Sword Spirit Country had no choice but to turn their attention back to Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai wasn't in the continent, he wasn't in the Hu Clan, so was it possible for him to go to his own fief? When he went out to sea, he wanted to go to Demon Island. Then, if he really had the ability to take away the huge sword, would he go to Demon Island? In the absence of any clues, the people of the Sword Spirit Nation could only grasp the last clue, and that was Zhao Hai.
After thinking about this, the Sword Spirit Nation immediately sent out a battleship. This battleship could carry five hundred people, and these five hundred people were led by a Sky Dance Realm master. There were also ten Consolidated Equipment Realm masters on the ship. The rest of the people, except for a hundred sailors who were most familiar with the sea, were all Professional Realm masters, and their strength was not low.
Such a battleship, even in a real war, would not appear, but now it was heading towards Demon Island.
Everyone knew that Demon Island was a dangerous island. There were countless monsters on the island. Even if a Sky Dance Realm master went to the island, he wouldn't dare to say that he could escape unscathed. It was precisely because of this that Demon Island had not been conquered for so many years.
Fang Yuan stood at the bow of the ship and looked at the sea in front of him. His heart was somewhat heavy. He was very clear about his mission this time. Although he was an expert of the Sky Dance Realm and was about to reach the Thousand Dance Realm, he didn't have the slightest certainty regarding this trip to Demon Island. This was because Demon Island's ominous reputation was too great. The number of Thousand Dance Realm experts who died on Demon Island was also not a small number. He didn't think that he would be able to conquer Demon Island.
But now, he didn't have the time to think about it. His Majesty personally gave the order, so he didn't dare to not come. However, he also decided to go to Demon Island to see if there were any traces of people. If there weren't, then he would immediately leave. He absolutely wouldn't provoke the demonic creatures on the island.
At this time, a person arrived at Fang Yuan's side and said, "Sir, after going forward for a day and a night, we will reach the periphery of Demon Island. After reaching there, the battleship will have to stop. There are submerged reefs inside, the ship can't pass through. Sir, you should go back to your room and rest."
Fang Yuan nodded, then he said, "Didn't you say that there are a lot of demonic creatures on the sea? How come they didn't appear? To be honest, I haven't eaten the meat of demonic creatures. If I can get one or two to eat, then it would be good. "
The person chuckled and said, "Replying to Sir, there are a lot of demonic creatures in the sea. However, the sea is also very big. Ordinary ships wouldn't encounter demonic creatures for a long time. Moreover, demonic creatures are very sensitive. They might have discovered Sir's aura and knew that Zhao Hai isn't someone they can afford to offend. Therefore, they all went into hiding."
When Fang Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. It was completely different from his previous sigh. Naturally, it was impossible for him to show a distressed expression in front of this person. He was the commander of this operation. If he didn't take action and the others saw his distressed expression, then their morale would certainly plummet. If their morale was low, then how could they go to a dangerous place like Demon Island? Because of this, Fang Yuan had always been very strong in front of outsiders.
The warship was still moving forward. None of them noticed that in the clouds above their heads, a giant eagle was circling. After discovering their path, the giant eagle flapped its wings and flew straight towards Demon Island.
But now, Demon Island had changed a lot. Plant City had basically been completed. Now, the people on the island were busy transforming the plants on the island. Most of the people in the Hu Clan were plants. Naturally, they hoped that the plants on the island would become their subordinates. Therefore, the Hu Clan was now preparing to transform some of the ordinary plants on the island into mutated plants.
Zhao Hai didn't do anything else during this time. He had been setting up magic formations on the island. At the same time, he also began to teach the Hu Clan's disciples about magic symbols.
This time, Hu Yuan selected ten of the Hu Clan's disciples with the best talent and the strongest learning ability to follow Zhao Hai to learn magic symbols. One must know that this wasn't an easy task. They didn't have Zhao Hai's ability to memorize magic symbols. Moreover, each symbol had a different meaning, making it very complicated. Therefore, their learning speed wasn't very fast.
In addition to the ten Hu Clan's disciples, Hu Chen, Hu Ding, and Hu Xiang were also learning. Even Hu Yuan was learning. Naturally, in addition to the ten Hu Clan's disciples, the other forty Hu Clan's core disciples hadn't been taught yet. The reason why Hu Yuan didn't let Zhao Hai teach too many people at once was because he was afraid that Zhao Hai would be distracted.
Zhao Hai knew what Hu Yuan was thinking. When he was teaching the Hu Clan's disciples, he was very serious. At most, he would teach three or five magic symbols. However, every symbol he taught was very serious. From the way the symbol was drawn, to the meaning of the symbol, to where it should be placed, what kind of power the symbol was, and what kind of power it would conflict with.
With Zhao Hai's teaching, not to mention the Hu Clan's disciples, even an old man like Hu Yuan could understand. Slowly, the gates of the magic formation began to open.
On this day, just as Zhao Hai finished arranging the magic formation and was preparing to go back and eat something before teaching the others, a hawk's cry was heard from the sky. Zhao Hai stared, then his expression changed. Then he stood in place. Before long, a huge hawk landed in front of Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai and the hawk conversed for a while before nodding. Then he waved his hand towards the hawk. The hawk flapped its wings and flew away.
After the hawk left, Zhao Hai quickly walked into Plant City. Plant City was very big, it was much bigger than the Hu Clan's fort. Moreover, it wasn't just the towering trees that people could live in. There were also a lot of caves in the back of the mountain. Some of these caves were naturally formed, while some were dug by the Hu Clan. Some of these caves could be used to live in, while some were used to store things. Because of this, the number of people that could live in Plant City definitely exceeded the Hu Clan's fort.
When Zhao Hai entered Plant City, some people immediately greeted Zhao Hai. These people were all craftsmen, they were the group of people that Zhao Hai received last time. They weren't core members of the Hu Clan, but some of them were children of the Hu Clan, and some of them were absolutely loyal members of the Hu Clan. These people's loyalty to the Hu Clan was unquestionable. Because of this, the Hu Clan sent them here. Because of their different statuses, they knew about Zhao Hai's position in the Hu Clan. Therefore, they were very polite to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai didn't look arrogant at all. After greeting these people, he arrived at the towering tree. On this tree, there were 50 disciples of the Hu Clan, as well as Hu Yuan, Hu Chen, Hu Ding, Hu Xiang, and Zhao Hai. They were the core of the island's power.
Zhao Hai entered the towering tree and walked straight up. Before long, he arrived at the top. There were only two rooms on the top floor. One was Hu Yuan's room, while the other was where Zhao Hai taught students. Zhao Hai arrived at Hu Yuan's room, then he knocked on the door and said, "Grandfather, I have something to talk to you about."
Hu Yuan's voice was heard, "Crane Grass, come in." Zhao Hai nodded, then he pushed the door and walked in. As soon as he entered the room, he saw a small living room. Hu Yuan was sitting on the coffee table with a book in his hand. This book was the one that he took while listening to Zhao Hai talk about magic formations. He wouldn't take out the book that Zhao Hai wrote.
Seeing Zhao Hai come in, Hu Yuan put down the book in his hand and said to Zhao Hai, "Crane Grass, why did you come at this time? It's not time to eat yet. Did something happen? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Grandfather, there's something. I just sent an eagle to report that a battleship is heading towards our Demon Island. It's a battleship from the Sword Spirit Country. There are a lot of people on the battleship, and there's also an expert who might have reached the Void Dance Realm."
