Zhao Hai smiled and said, "This is nothing. There are a lot of herbs in this forest. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to find so many of them."
Na Zhen smiled and said, "You don't need to be modest. We can see how much effort you put into this process. Right, how are you so familiar with the forest?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Senior Brother Na Zhen, you shouldn't have forgotten that I used to be a rogue cultivator. How could I not enter the forest? The most I did was stay in the forest for a few months. But that time wasn't for an adventure, it was to avoid being hunted down. At that time, it was much more miserable than now. I had to find food in the forest. Moreover, I couldn't leave any traces behind so as to avoid being discovered. Those few months were really hard." Na Zhen smiled.
Na Zhen nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "It seems like going out to train is really important. Our experience in the forest is far worse than yours." Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at Zhao Hai. The others nodded. Although they had been led by Zhao Hai for the entire morning, they could see that Zhao Hai was very familiar with the forest.
Zhao Hai looked at Na Zhen, then he smiled bitterly and said, "I was forced to do so. If I had this kind of cultivation environment, then I wouldn't have run to the woods to hide. The suffering of a Rogue Cultivator isn't something you can imagine. Take the last time when Sealed Sword City was besieged by beasts. The scale of the attack was terrifying. Later on, all the Rogue Cultivators of the Sealing Sword Sect went up the city walls and died one after another. The corpses of the beasts piled up as high as the city walls. All the Rogue Cultivators knew that they would die if they went up the city walls. However, they still wanted to go up the city walls because as long as they can survive, then they would be able to get some of the beasts' loot. They would be able to get a batch of crystal stones, which they can use to buy pills, artifacts, and cultivation methods. This is what it means to fight against the heavens." Na Zhen smiled bitterly.
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Na Zhen and the others' expressions turned heavy. They didn't know much about Rogue Cultivators. They were all chosen by the Iron Buddha Temple when they were young and were brought to the temple to cultivate. In their opinion, the Iron Buddha Temple's cultivation was very hard. But now, they heard Zhao Hai talk about Rogue Cultivators. They couldn't help but sigh. Compared to Rogue Cultivators, they were really lucky.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said, "In Sealed Sword City, I joined a group called the Gathering Monks. All of the Cultivators in the group are Monks. However, all of them are Rogue Cultivators. There are several thousand Rogue Cultivators in Sealed Sword City, but I'm the only one who was lucky enough to be there."
Na Zhen and the others didn't make a sound. At this time, Zhao Hai used a voice transmission technique to talk to them, "Brothers, don't make a sound, I'm using a voice transmission technique to talk to you. We're currently surrounded, there are more than 20 people surrounding us, it might not be more than that. Everyone, get ready to fight. Don't be stingy with your talismans, throw them all out at once. We don't want to run out of the forest, they might think that we're going to run out of the forest. Therefore, we must do the opposite. We'll use the talismans to open a path and attack with all our strength. Then we'll break through their encirclement and rush into the forest. In a moment, I'll wave my Buddhist Staff. As soon as I do, Brother Na Zhen, immediately activate the Cloud-Patterned Prayer Beads and let the fog rise. We'll rush into the forest as fast as we can, the faster the better."
Then Zhao Hai stopped, then he opened his mouth and said, "Actually, I didn't think that I would be chosen by the temple. I don't know what the temple saw in me, but in any case, I'm very lucky."
Na Zhen and the others nodded, it seems like they didn't hear Zhao Hai's voice transmission. Their hands didn't move, but they were already using their spiritual force to communicate with their spatial equipment. They were ready to use the talismans inside to attack the enemy.
At this time, Zhao Hai stood up, but Na Zhen and the others didn't move. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and smiled, "Alright, let's not talk about these unhappy things …" After saying this, Zhao Hai's hand that was holding the Buddhist Staff shook a few times, causing the staff to shake violently.
Along with the sound of the iron rings on the staff, Na Zhen and the others immediately moved. Na Zhen wiped his hand and a fog appeared around them, wrapping them up. Then the others took out their offensive talismans and threw them out of the fog. After that, everyone gathered the talismans and threw them towards the forest. Then the group rushed towards the forest.
Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom …. A series of explosions occurred as the talismans exploded. The people surrounding Zhao Hai and the others didn't expect Zhao Hai and the others to discover them. Moreover, Zhao Hai and the others were the first to make a move. They were startled. While they were in a daze, Zhao Hai and the others had already reached the edge of the encirclement.
Zhao Hai and Na Zhen rushed to the front, but when they saw the people in front of them, they couldn't help but be stunned. This was because the people in front of them weren't from the Nightwalker Sect, but the Sword Dance Sect.
When Na Zhen saw the people from the Sword Dance Sect, he couldn't help but be stunned. However, Zhao Hai wasn't stunned. Instead, he waved his staff at them.
The people from the Sword Dance Sect were stunned by the talisman attack. Several of them were injured. At this time, Zhao Hai directly rushed over and waved his staff.
The people from the Sword Dance Sect reacted. They had already held their swords in their hands. When they saw Zhao Hai waving his staff, they immediately raised their swords to meet it.
Zhao Hai snorted coldly. He increased the strength of the Buddhist staff in his hand and hit the long swords directly. One side raised their swords to meet the attack, while the other side attacked with all their might. One side used a heavy weapon like the Buddhist staff, while the other side used a light weapon like the long swords. One side was a Body Cultivator, while the other side was a Sword Cultivator. The difference in strength was too great. With a clang, the long sword of the Sword Dance Sect cultivator was knocked away by Zhao Hai's Buddhist staff. However, Zhao Hai's staff didn't stop. Instead, it hit the head of the sword cultivator.
Bang! The head of the Sword Cultivator exploded like a watermelon. However, Zhao Hai didn't stop. He leaped forward and swung his Buddhist staff at the second Sword Cultivator.
At this time, Na Zhen also reacted. His Vajra Scepter also attacked another Sword Dance Sect cultivator. As the Sword Dance Sect cultivator was one step behind, he didn't have the ability to attack. He could only defend. This way, he couldn't display his Sword Dance Technique and was forced to retreat by Na Zhen. Zhao Hai also forced the second Sword Dance Sect cultivator to retreat. At this time, Na Ding and the rest also charged over. Their weapons flew. The Sword Dance Sect cultivators couldn't withstand such a fierce attack and could only retreat. Zhao Hai and the rest killed their way out of the encirclement and went straight into the forest.
While moving forward, Zhao Hai said, "Talisman paper. Throw talisman paper behind. Don't be stingy." Then he waved his hand and talisman papers appeared in his hand. He threw them behind him.
The others did the same. They directly grabbed a handful of talismans and threw them back. Although these talismans were all low-level talismans and weren't very useful for people like them, they could still effectively stop those people from chasing after them. This was enough.
After throwing talisman papers, Zhao Hai and the others finally ran into the depths of the forest. However, they didn't stop and kept running forward. Zhao Hai looked behind him and slowed down. Then he said to Na Zhen, "Senior Brother, you take everyone and run forward. I'll stay behind to clean up the traces and then chase after them. If we run like this, they'll be able to catch up to us."
Na Zhen stared, then his expression changed as he said, "No, Jing Hai, this is too dangerous."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly, then he waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I won't die. You can go now." Then his figure slowed down as he fell behind the group.
Na Zhen looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Let's go." Then his figure moved forward. The others also looked at Zhao Hai before following him.
When Zhao Hai saw that everyone had left, his face couldn't help but light up. Then with a thought, the surrounding vegetation was restored to its original state. Then Zhao Hai's figure moved and directly hid in a large tree.
Just as Zhao Hai hid himself, a rustling sound could be heard as a group of people ran into the forest. They were obviously following the traces left behind by Zhao Hai's group. However, when they arrived here, the traces suddenly disappeared. This caused them to slow down.
Zhao Hai squatted on the tree and quietly looked at these people. These people came from different sects. Some were from the Nightwalker Sect, some were from the Serenity Dao Sect, and some were from the Sword Dance Sect. There were even people from other sects that came later. Unexpectedly, all the sects that entered the Secret Realm had joined forces. The number of people exceeded 30.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai's eyes couldn't help but narrow. This situation was beyond his expectations. He didn't understand why these sects would join forces to deal with the Iron Buddha Temple. For example, the Serenity Dao Sect and the Nightwalker Sect had a huge grudge against each other. But why would they join forces? This didn't make sense, there must be some kind of conspiracy behind this. It seems like Zhao Hai needs to ask about this matter. If he can find out something, then it would be very important for the Iron Buddha Temple. Zhao Hai didn't want to join the Iron Buddha Temple just to have the temple destroyed by the other sects. That would be too boring.
Zhao Hai had already put away his Buddhist Staff. Although the Buddhist Staff was a very powerful weapon, it wasn't suitable to be used in this kind of environment. Because of this, he didn't have a weapon in his hand.
Zhao Hai's eyes kept looking at these people. Among these people, he found an acquaintance. It was the Nightwalker Sect's disciple that had left a deep impression on him. This disciple's style of conduct had left a deep impression on Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai had already determined him to be a dangerous person. Now that he saw this person again, Zhao Hai felt that all of this wasn't just a coincidence.
