A year passed by in a blink of an eye. For the people of the Lost Soul Empire, there weren't any earth-shaking changes in this year. Everyone was still living their own lives. But now, people were pursuing higher things. Everyone was working hard in cultivation. Although they had their own jobs, their jobs were getting lesser and lesser. This allowed them to have more time to cultivate. For them, this was good news.
In the end, the people of the Lost Soul Empire were all Cultivators. If they could pursue the Great Dao, then they would certainly do so. In the past, they didn't do it because they didn't have the conditions. But now that they had the conditions, they would naturally pursue it. Moreover, the Lost Soul Empire was very encouraging towards cultivation. There were even some people who were nurtured by the Lost Soul Empire as long as they had enough talent. They wouldn't be allowed to participate in any work and would just focus on cultivation. Naturally, this wasn't always the case. Otherwise, there would be some lazy people. All the Cultivators who were selected would undergo an assessment. As long as they passed the assessment, then they would be able to focus on cultivation. Otherwise, they would still be assigned a job.
The Lost Soul Empire's way of doing things was to provide a good environment for cultivation. However, this environment needed to be competed for.
Reality proved that the Lost Soul Empire's approach was very correct. Everyone with children wanted their children to be able to focus on cultivation when they grew up. They didn't need to do any work. In order to support these children, the parents would naturally do everything they could. At the same time, they would also take responsibility and cultivate with all their might.
It was precisely because of this that the Lost Soul Empire became very popular. Everyone in the Lost Soul Empire was working hard to cultivate. This was a very gratifying situation.
Zhao Hai had been staying in the Space for a year. There were too many things that needed to be calculated and simulated with the Curse Technique. He simply didn't have time to think about other things. All of his time was spent on the Curse Technique.
In this year, Stonehammer and the others made rapid progress. They were now almost ready to ascend. The reason why they were able to progress so quickly was because they were too weak. They couldn't compare to the Beast Cultivators in Zhao Hai's Space. Because of this, they were able to receive guidance from the Beast Cultivators in the Space. Naturally, their cultivation speed became faster.
However, Stonehammer and the others were still a bit off. They would need to wait for some time before they could ascend. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't look for them in a hurry. He just let them cultivate in their homes.
Finally, it was time for the Spiritual Realm to appear. Everyone in the Lost Soul Empire knew about this. They also knew that the people from the Spiritual Realm first appeared in the Tree Spirit Continent. Because of this, the Lost Soul Empire's attention was now on the Tree Spirit Continent. The Lost Soul Empire even organized some powerful students to go to the Tree Spirit Continent and see how the people from the Spiritual Realm fought.
And the people from the Spiritual Realm didn't disappoint them. At this time, dark clouds had already appeared in the sky of the Tree Spirit Continent. Moreover, there were a lot of dark clouds. It seems like a spatial passage was about to open.
Long Tianlin calmly looked at the dark clouds in the sky, his face didn't show any reaction. He had already prepared everything that he needed to prepare. These past few years weren't in vain. At this time, all of the battleships of the Lost Soul Empire had been transformed with energy. Moreover, after the transformation, they discovered that this transformation didn't only increase the defense and flexibility of the battleships, it also increased the combat strength of the battleships, especially in close combat. Although the attack strength of the energy transformation wasn't very strong, it was still better than nothing.
Behind Long Tianlin were the higher-ups of the Lost Soul Empire. Some of them were newly promoted while some were old. However, these people were people who held high positions when Zhao Hai was still in power. Because of this, they admired Zhao Hai very much. They also discovered that Long Tianlin's style was becoming more and more like Zhao Hai.
Long Tianlin stood there for some time before he said, "Alright, let's go back. Even if the people from the Spiritual Realm come, it would still be a few days later. Let's get ready in the next few days. I want to see who the Spiritual Realm will send this time." Everyone nodded. Then they followed Long Tianlin and flew towards Vegetable City. Before long, they entered the city. But instead of going back to rest, they directly went to the conference room.
When everyone sat down, Long Tianlin looked at them and said, "As you all know, His Majesty is currently in seclusion. A year ago, when Xia Yu appeared, I met with His Majesty. His Majesty said that he wouldn't interfere with the Spiritual Realm this time. If we can deal with them well, then he can ascend without worry. Everyone should know that His Majesty has delayed his ascension because of the Spiritual Realm. We can't let His Majesty worry about us. Because of this, we can only deal with the Spiritual Realm on our own. I hope that everyone can be mentally prepared."
Everyone nodded. They also knew about Zhao Hai's situation. Zhao Hai has always been the strongest person in the Lost Soul Empire. But now, people who weren't as strong as Zhao Hai have ascended while Zhao Hai didn't. This was abnormal. Now that Zhao Hai finally had a chance to ascend, they were naturally happy.
Long Tianlin looked at everyone and said, "I think everyone knows the current situation, so I won't say much. You can go back and rest. When the battle starts in a few days, make sure to take care of your own people. Go." Everyone nodded before they turned around and left.
When Long Tianlin saw that everyone had left, he let out a long sigh of relief. Then he clenched his fist and slowly released it. Then he stood up and walked out, returning to his room to rest.
At this time, Zhao Hai was also paying attention to the situation in the Tree Spirit Continent. Naturally, he saw the reactions of Long Tianlin and the others. Seeing Long Tianlin's performance, Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile faintly as he said, "That kid's performance isn't bad."
Laura smiled and said, "His performance is very good. But Brother Hai, why do you want to wait a few years before ascending? Isn't it good to ascend now? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Don't worry. The reason why I said that I want to wait a few years before ascending is because I want to see how they're doing. If they're doing well, then I can ascend without worry."
Laura nodded and said, "It's good to ascend a bit later. This way, Wen Wenhai and the others can feel the cruelty of the Cultivation Realm. Brother Hai, have you received any news from Wen Wenhai and the others?"
Zhao Hai replied, "I received it. Wen Hai and the others have already established a small gang. They seem to be doing quite well. Of course, there were a lot of battles, but Wen Hai and the others managed to keep their lives, so they should be fine."
Laura nodded and said, "That's good. Right, didn't Xia Yu say that the situation in the Sword Spirit World has been unstable recently? Will there be a fight? If there's a fight, then Wen Hai and the others would be the first to be eliminated. "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right. Once a fight breaks out, Wen Hai and the others might become cannon fodder. This is also what I'm worried about. Therefore, I had Wen Hai and the others move closer to the South Sea's Seventy-two Cannons. If something happens, they can immediately enter the Seventy-two Cannons and contact Grandpa. Grandpa has Xia Yu's protection. When the time comes, Xia Yu would be able to talk to Xia Yu and the others, making them safe.
Laura nodded and said, "Then we'll talk about it after you ascend. Brother Hai, what do you think about Long Tianlin's arrangement this time? Can you make the people from the Spiritual Realm stay behind? "
Zhao Hai didn't reply, "Their arrangement is very good. However, I'm worried that the Spiritual Realm would send experts this time. I'm afraid that they don't have the experience to deal with experts. But no matter what, I won't make a move. If they don't experience this, then they would never be able to stand on their own."
Laura didn't say anything else. She understood what Zhao Hai meant. Zhao Hai wanted Long Tianlin and the others to pass the last test. As long as Long Tianlin and the others pass this test, then no matter what happens in the future, Long Tianlin would be able to deal with it. This way, Zhao Hai would be able to ascend without any worries. What they needed to do now was to observe. As long as the Lost Soul Empire's rule wasn't threatened, then Zhao Hai wouldn't make a move.
Everyone was quietly waiting for the people from the Spiritual Realm to arrive. Seven days wasn't a long time, so it didn't take long before the Spatial Passage opened. This time, the Spatial Passage was very large. The entire Spatial Passage was circular and had a diameter of a thousand miles.
Long Tianlin and the others didn't expect such a large Spatial Passage. However, they were still prepared. The entire Lost Soul Empire was mobilized. Warships and experts were all gathered in the Tree Spirit Continent. They wanted to see who the Spiritual Realm would send this time.
At this time, several large ships arrived at the Tree Spirit Continent through the Spatial Passage. Next to these ships were countless cultivators. All of them were riding on various artifacts as they appeared in the sky above the Tree Spirit Continent. The total number of these people reached a hundred thousand.
As soon as he saw this, Long Tianlin knew that this would be a fierce battle, so he immediately ordered, "Activate the defensive barriers of all plant cities on the Tree Sprite Continent. Activate the interconnected formations and activate the continent-level influence formations. Operate at full power. All combatants, prepare for battle."
Following Long Tianlin's order, the people in the Tree Spirit Continent began to move. The people in the several plant cities in the Tree Spirit Continent opened their shields. At the same time, the Blue Dragon Water Playing Formation was also activated. The Blue Dragon Water Playing Formation was a large formation with all plant cities in the Tree Spirit Continent as its nodes. Once this formation was activated, it would cover the entire Tree Spirit Continent. People who didn't have a formation plate would be greatly affected. This was also the formation that Zhao Hai arranged.
