The water in the lake was still rising, but Zhao Hai didn't have the time to care about it. He was now preparing to build several channels and then use these channels to form a cycle. In the end, the water in the channels would return to the lake.
Building a canal wasn't easy. It might seem simpler than building a lake, but in fact, it wasn't that simple. As long as you find the right side of the lake and make a big hole, it would be fine. However, a canal wasn't the same. You need to plan the canal well and leave enough space for future development.
After several days of calculation, Zhao Hai finally started to build a huge water network with the lake as the center. This was because Zhao Hai connected large and small channels to form a huge water network. This water network started from the lake and ended at the lake. And the fort that Zhao Hai wanted to build was on top of the lake.
Zhao Hai originally wanted to build a fort around the lake. However, in the end, Zhao Hai decided to build the fort directly on top of the lake. For Zhao Hai, this wasn't a difficult matter.
In addition to irrigation, this water network also had another use. It was a huge formation. Moreover, it was a combination of several formations.
Actually, there were Spirit Gathering Spirit Design, Illusory Spirit Design, Water Curtain Heavenly Flower Defensive Spirit Design, Icebound Ten Thousand Miles Offensive Spirit Design, and several other spirit designs. And for such a large spirit design, other than the Spirit Gathering Spirit Design, the main source of energy was the lake water. As long as the lake water existed, the spirit design would continue to be effective.
Naturally, Zhao Hai didn't tell Ghost Spirit and the others about this matter. He just asked them to help him set up the formation channels.
Everyone worked together and it took about ten days to set up all the channels. After that, it was time to build the fort. Now that the water problem was solved, the fort could be built.
Building the fort wasn't an easy matter. In the end, Zhao Hai built stone pillars in the lake. These pillars were about five meters above the surface of the lake. Then he planted some special plants on top of the pillars. These plants were plants that Zhao Hai inadvertently received in the Space. They were vine-like plants. They were very fast and tough. Most importantly, these plants only needed to absorb water to survive. Moreover, they grew very well. They were aquatic plants.
The vines that Zhao Hai planted were optimized by the Space. Because of this, they grew faster. Moreover, as long as there were plant masters here, they could turn these plants into all kinds of things. Even houses could be grown by these vines.
After the pillars were covered with vines, Zhao Hai began to plant other plants on top of the vines. First, he planted Baobab trees. Outside the pillars, he planted Baobab trees as city walls. Inside, he planted Bottle Trees and Sky Supporting Trees. With this, a small Botanic City was built.
There were two ways to go from Botanic City to the shore. One was to walk on the vine bridge. This vine bridge was made of special vines. When necessary, the vines could be collected, and the vine bridge would naturally break.
The other way was to take a boat. However, Zhao Hai didn't prepare a boat. Aside from these two methods, they could only fly over Botanic City.
After listening to all of this, Zhao Hai began to arrange formations in Botanic Fort. The control center of the water net formation, the defensive formations of the fort, the control formations of the vines inside the fort, and so on. It would take a lot of time to prepare all of these.
Zhao Hai was busy with Botanic Fort, so Ghost Spirits and the others couldn't help. Fortunately, the lake was already filled with water. Ghost Spirits and the others could finally plant grass in all the places covered by the water net. Because there was a lot of water here, they didn't need to plant too many Bottle Trees. However, they still needed to plant grass because the soil here still needed to be improved.
While Ghost Spirits and the others were busy with those things, Zhao Hai was busy with Botanic Fort. During this time, although he kept in touch with Hu Yuan, he didn't go to Demon Island. Now, the Hu Clan's arrangements on Demon Island had been completed, and the Hu Clan had begun to move people to Demon Island.
Because of the existence of the Giant Demon Saber, this migration was very easy. The Hu Clan's Botanic Fort in the Saber Spirit Nation had become an empty shell. There weren't many Hu Clan members inside.
This change in the Hu Clan was noticed by some people, but no one said anything. This was because this was something that almost all the great clans in the continent would do. Great clans wouldn't leave their clansmen in one place, they would certainly leave a branch in another place in order to prevent any mishaps from happening.
To be honest, the fact that the Hu Clan had only done this now was already shocking to many people. However, no one took this matter seriously. Even if the Dao Clan knew about this, they wouldn't think that the Hu Clan was betraying them. On the contrary, they would think that the Hu Clan had sent them to the desert.
The Dao Clan was very clear about how much influence the Hu Clan had on the desert. However, with the Hu Clan's influence on the desert, there were no disadvantages for the Dao Clan. Therefore, the Dao Clan didn't object.
However, the Hu Clan didn't go overboard. There were still many Hu Clan members in the Botanic Fort. In addition, there were servants and so on. Therefore, although some of the Hu Clan's core members had disappeared, there were still many in the Hu Clan's Botanic Fort. This was also why no one suspected them.
After nearly a year of busy work, Zhao Hai finally arranged everything in the Botanic Fort. During this year, Gui Ling and the others didn't idle. They got some cattle and sheep from the Hammering Spirit Nation and grazed there. In addition to the Baobab Tree, which was the kind of vine and leaf that Zhao Hai ordered to be the Omnipotent Vine, there was no shortage of food, drinks, vegetables, and meat in the Botanic Fort.
Zhao Hai also put some fish and prawns in the lake. This small place that Zhao Hai called the desert paradise had become better and better.
However, this Botanic Fort, which could accommodate ten thousand people, only had Zhao Hai, Gui Ling, and fifty people. This number was too small. Therefore, this place seemed empty.
However, Zhao Hai and the others had been very busy. After Zhao Hai finished with the Botanic Fort, he taught Gui Ling and the others how to operate the Botanic Fort. He taught them how to use the Botanic Fort and the water net formation outside.
After teaching Ghost Spirit and the others everything, Zhao Hai called them to his room. After everyone sat down, Zhao Hai said, "You should think of a way to return to the Sword Spirit Country and see how your family is doing. If possible, bring your family here as well." Ghost Spirit and the others nodded, then Zhao Hai nodded and said, "You should go back to the Sword Spirit Country and see how your family is doing. After he said that, Zhao Hai took out a Giant Demon Sword and several magic formations and gave them to Ghost Spirit and the others. Then he said, "This Giant Demon Sword is for you. Take these magic formations as well. When you leave the desert, take these magic formations with you. These magic formations can form an illusion formation that can change your appearance and your soul. This way, you won't be discovered by others. But remember, don't leave all of them here at once. At least thirty people should be left behind to guard the fort and make sure that the fort operates normally." Ghost Spirit and the others nodded and said, "Don't leave all of them here at once.
Gui Ling and the others happily complied. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "I'll leave this matter to Gui Ling. You can take care of it. I'm planning to go out for a while. There aren't enough people in the fort right now. I'm going to head back to the family and find some people. Naturally, I'll need some other people as well. Unfortunately, there aren't a lot of people that I can trust."
As soon as Gui Ling heard Zhao Hai, his eyes lit up, then he said, "Young Master, maybe you can go to the Lion Soul Kingdom and take a look. Although the Lion Soul Kingdom is very large, they offended the Plant Masters a few years ago, so they were punished by the Plant Masters. There are very few Plant Masters in the Lion Soul Kingdom. If there are few Plant Masters, nobody would help them improve their plants. Even the Plant Masters would restrict the Lion Soul Kingdom's improved seeds. Because of this, a lot of people in the Lion Soul Kingdom don't have enough to eat. Moreover, the Great Nobles of the Lion Soul Kingdom have their own fiefdoms. The Lion Soul Kingdom's King's control over the Lion Soul Kingdom isn't very strong. These Great Nobles often fight, and in the process of fighting, a lot of captives will be produced. These captives will eventually be sold as slaves. The Lion Soul Kingdom's slaves have always been known for their hard work. Therefore, Young Master can go there and buy some slaves. These slaves will be absolutely loyal to Young Master, and they won't have any burdens. It's best to get them here."
When Zhao Hai heard Gui Ling, he couldn't help but stare, he didn't think that there would be slaves in the Soul Realm. Zhao Hai couldn't help but say, "I didn't think that there would still be slaves in the Soul Realm. Alright, let's go to the Lion Soul Kingdom and take a look. Although the Destruction Desert doesn't have any destructive force, after the formation of the water net, the desert's periphery will be affected. Outsiders will be even more reluctant to come in. Also, with the presence of the demonic plants and animals, they won't be able to come in. This place should be safe. You just need to look after this place. You can go back to your families, but it's best if you don't let the Sword Spirit Kingdom discover you.
Do you understand? "Gui Ling and the others nodded. Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at the sky and said," Alright, you can go back. I want to rest. I'll leave tomorrow. I won't take care of your matters here, you can do as you see fit. "Gui Ling and the others nodded, then they stood up and left.
After resting for a night in the fort, Zhao Hai got up early the next morning. After having breakfast, Zhao Hai told Gui Ling and the others that he would be leaving. Then Zhao Hai took the Golden Jade Light Sword and left. But the lizard stayed behind. The lizard was outside the water net formation. It also had a formation on its body. But because it had adapted to the destructive force, Zhao Hai had two formations on its body. One was a spirit gathering formation, and the other was a transformation formation. It can transform natural energy into destructive force. Because of this, the lizard was very comfortable in the Destruction Desert. Zhao Hai had it stay behind to protect the fort.
