The Lost Soul Empire's army was still in the Thick Earth Continent, clearing the territory of the Ghost Face Continent step by step. Wherever they go, all the monsters of the Ghost Face Continent would be cleared. Even the Blood Pool would be filled up.
However, when filling up the blood pool, there were some problems. The blood pool was actually a special kind of energy that was used to refine monsters, so it was more troublesome. If you just used soil to fill it up, the blood pool wouldn't be able to fill it up. No matter how much soil you threw in, it would disappear into the blood pool. It wouldn't be able to do anything at all.
After Zhao Hai found out about this, he went to the Blood Pool to take a look. Then he had someone bring a battleship over and had the battleship replace its energy cannons with fire energy. Then the cannons fired at the Blood Pool.
When the energy shot by the energy cannons entered the blood pool, the blood pool immediately started to churn. At the same time, the sound of ghosts crying could be heard, making people feel very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the blood pool wasn't a living thing, it was just some dark element energy causing trouble. After the energy cannons attacked for a while, the blood pool slowly disappeared, leaving behind a large hole on the ground. Then the people quickly filled the hole up.
Zhao Hai didn't think about directly looking for the Ghost Face Army and having a decisive battle. This wasn't a good idea. The Ghost Face Army didn't know where they were right now. If he wanted to find them, then he would have to look all over the world. Because of this, the best way to deal with the Ghost Face Army was to use his own method. Step by step, he would directly flatten them. In the end, he wouldn't even need to look for them, they would just come looking for him for a decisive battle.
This method was very useful. In less than a month, Zhao Hai's army had already recovered half of the Thick Earth Continent. Although they had fought with the Ghost Face Continent several times during this period, they didn't get as big of a fight as they did on the first day.
However, Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. Stonehammer and the others weren't in a hurry either. They continued to push forward step by step. Although the speed of their advance wasn't very fast, it still gave the Five Spirit Realm soldiers hope. They knew that as long as they continued to push forward, they would be able to eliminate the Ghost Face Army sooner or later.
When Zhao Hai's group occupied two-thirds of the Thick Earth Continent, the Ghost Mask launched a counterattack. This time, the Ghost Mask went all out and summoned a lot of monsters. A total of 50 Bone Giants were summoned along with other monsters. This battle was even bigger than the one that Zhao Hai's group encountered on the first day. The two sides fought for a day and a night. The Lost Soul Empire's army lost nearly a hundred thousand people while the Ghost Mask's army lost millions.
This battle really hurt the Ghost Face Army. After two battles, the majority of the Ghost Face Army's army was wiped out. At this point, the Ghost Face Army didn't have as many troops as the Lost Soul Empire's army. If this continues, the Ghost Face Army would be finished.
Most of the casualties in the Lost Soul Empire's army were from the Five Spirit Realms. However, compared to before, their casualties were much lower. Moreover, those who were injured were treated in time. Because of this, their casualties weren't that big.
The army rested in place for three days before they began to advance again. Just like before, they didn't rush. But the more they did this, the more stable they were. They didn't give the Ghost Face Army any chance.
Finally, three months after Zhao Hai's group entered the Thick Earth Continent, they finally recovered four-fifths of the Thick Earth Continent. They surrounded the Ghost Face Army in a small area. However, Zhao Hai discovered that the Ghost Face Army was still increasing their troops. It seems like they weren't ready to give up their last stronghold.
Zhao Hai didn't understand the Ghost Face Army's intentions. If they really didn't want to give up on the Thick Earth Continent, why didn't they increase their troops before? Why did they wait until now to increase their troops? At this time, the Ghost Face Army's territory wasn't that big. What was the point of increasing their troops? Did they think that they could push back Zhao Hai's group in one fell swoop?
However, Zhao Hai wasn't prepared to give them this opportunity. Zhao Hai's people didn't attack the Ghost Face Army's Transmission Formation from the very beginning. Because of this, the Ghost Face Army was able to increase their troops. Zhao Hai believed that it was necessary to destroy the Transmission Formation.
The reason why Zhao Hai's group didn't destroy the Transmission Formation was because the Ghost Face Army's defenses were too good. At the same time, the Ghost Face Army also learned to be smart. Their Transmission Formation was originally placed in the open, but now it was placed in a cave. If Zhao Hai's group wanted to destroy the Transmission Formation, then they can only rely on their army. One must know that the reason why Zhao Hai's group was able to suppress the Ghost Face Army was mainly because of their battleships. If they didn't use their battleships, then it wouldn't be easy for them to capture the Ghost Face Army. If they didn't use their battleships, then it wouldn't be easy for them to capture the Ghost Face Army. If they didn't use their battleships, then they might suffer heavy casualties.
Because of this, Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. He wanted to push the Ghost Face Army one step at a time, forcing them into a dead end. Then they would have a decisive battle with the Ghost Face Army. Finally, the Ghost Face Army's people would be scared. Then they would use the Transmission Formation to return to the Tree Spirit Continent and wait for the decisive battle.
But now, it seems like the Ghost Face Army didn't intend to give up on this place. They were still sending reinforcements. This wasn't good news for the Lost Soul Empire. If they couldn't destroy the Transmission Formation, then the Ghost Face Army would continue to send reinforcements. As long as the Transmission Formation was there, the Ghost Face Army would have planted a nail in the Thick Earth Continent. If this nail couldn't be removed, then when Zhao Hai sends his troops to the Tree Spirit Continent, the Ghost Face Army would send people to the Thick Earth Continent to cause trouble. At that time, Zhao Hai's group would be in big trouble. Therefore, they had to remove this nail.
Zhao Hai called Stonehammer and the other Generals to the Ghost Face Warship. After everyone arrived, Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Recently, the Ghost Face Army has sent reinforcements to the Thick Earth Continent. I think everyone knows about this, right?" Everyone nodded. Of course they knew about this. In fact, they were also worried about this matter.
Zhao Hai looked at Stonehammer and said, "Stonehammer, tell me, what do you plan to do?"
Stonehammer replied, "Young Master, we plan to advance step by step according to our previous plan. We'll shrink the Ghost Face Army's territory as much as possible. Then we'll launch a final decisive battle. We must destroy the Ghost Face Army's Transmission Formation at all costs. This way, we'll be able to eliminate the Ghost Face Army in the Thick Earth Continent."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's a good idea. However, it won't be easy to achieve this. Moreover, the price we'll have to pay is too great. The reason why I haven't intervened in the military is because I want to use the Ghost Face Army to train our troops. We'll have the Bewitching Soul Empire experience this kind of bitter battle. Only then will we be able to grow. However, it wouldn't be good if the price we have to pay is too great."
Stonehammer nodded, but then he frowned and said, "But if we don't do this, it won't be easy to destroy the Ghost Face Army's Transmission Formation. The Ghost Face Army's Transmission Formation is in a cave. Nobody knows what's inside the cave. In this case, it would be impossible to destroy the Ghost Face Army's Transmission Formation without paying a price."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I know. That's why I called you over today. I've been bored lately, so I'll take this opportunity to do some exercise."
Stonehammer and the others stared. Then they all looked at Zhao Hai. Stonehammer said, "Young Master, do you want to do it yourself?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "What's wrong? Can't I do it? Before the Bewitching Soul Empire was established, I had plenty of opportunities to do it. Why can't I do it now? Tell me, is there anyone more suitable than me among you? "
Stonehammer and the others didn't speak. However, Stonehammer immediately said, "Young Master, I think we should do it ourselves. There's no need for you to do it. You're already the Emperor of the Bewitching Soul Empire. It wouldn't be right for you to do it."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by it wouldn't be right for me to do it? As long as I do it, it wouldn't be right for me to do it. You should know that our army is made up of veterans who have been through hundreds of battles. Every single one of them is a huge loss for us. Therefore, I can only do it myself. "
Stonehammer looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, do you really want to do it?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's settled. I'll set out tomorrow and destroy the transfer formation. This way, we can deal with the Ghost Face in the Thick Earth Continent as soon as possible. After that, we'll deal with the Ghost Face in the Tree Spirit Continent. Lastly, we'll deal with the Sea Beasts. We don't have that much time to deal with the Ghost Face. The sooner we deal with them, the sooner we can make arrangements for the reconstruction of the Five Spiritual Realms. Don't forget, we still have a powerful enemy who will be coming in a few days."
Everyone knew who Zhao Hai's powerful enemy was, it was the Spiritual Realm. It has been almost two years since the Spiritual Realm started sending people to the Five Spiritual Realms. If they don't deal with the Ghost Face as soon as possible, then the Spiritual Realm would be able to break through the Space and send people to the Five Spiritual Realms. At that time, they would have to face two powerful enemies. Therefore, just as Zhao Hai said, they didn't have time to deal with the Ghost Face.
Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Leave the Ghost Plane's transmission formation to me. What you need to do is to prepare everyone. Our attack on the Ghost Plane is about to begin. This time, don't give the Ghost Plane any chances. We need to exterminate all of them in one go. Understand?" Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, let's go.
Everyone agreed in unison, and the matter was settled like that.
