"The Southern Sea's 72 Islands are truly united!" Wu Du looked at the allied army and coldly snorted. Then he loudly said, "Everyone, prepare to meet the enemy." After saying that, he waved his hand and an iron lotus throne flew out from his hand. Then, he jumped onto the lotus throne. The lotus throne kept growing bigger and bigger until it became a huge iron lotus throne with a diameter of 100 meters.
At the same time, the other Elders also took out their own iron lotus platforms. Zhao Hai counted ten iron lotus platforms in total. Then Wu Du's voice was heard, "Everyone, pay attention. All Elders and Inner Court Disciples, get on top of the iron lotus platforms. Quickly."
Everyone nodded. Then all the flying Elders and Inner Court Disciples jumped on top of the iron lotus platforms. Then the ten iron lotus platforms soared into the sky and flew away from the island.
Seeing the Elders and Inner Court Disciples fly up, Zhao Hai didn't hold back as he said, "Outer Court Disciples, prepare for close combat. Don't go too far. Everyone, get on top of the platform and form a formation. We only need to defend the cave. Quickly!" Everyone nodded before they slowly retreated to the cave.
After everyone retreated to the cave, Zhao Hai looked around and saw that there were 1500 people guarding the cave. This wasn't a small number. He immediately said, "Everyone, listen up. We have 1500 people here. Divide yourselves into three groups of 500 people each. One group will retreat to the cave to rest while the other two will prepare to meet the enemy."
Nobody objected. Everyone here was an Outer Court Disciple. All the Outer Court Disciples knew about Zhao Hai's influence as well as Zhao Hai's position in the temple. Because of this, nobody said anything and just followed Zhao Hai's orders.
Soon, the 1500 people were divided into three groups. One group directly retreated to the cave to rest, while the other two groups were divided into two groups on the left and right, firmly protecting the cave behind them.
After everyone was divided into two groups, Zhao Hai said, "All groups will be divided into five squadrons. Each squadron will be divided into one hundred people. Each squadron will be divided into ten small groups. We need to quickly choose the leaders of the squadrons and squadrons. Quickly."
Although they didn't understand why Zhao wanted to divide them into so many teams, they still did as he said. They were divided into squadrons with people they were familiar with, and then they were divided into smaller teams with people they were closer to.
After everyone was divided, Zhao Hai said, "Everyone, give your squadrons and squadrons a number. The squadron on the left will be under my command while the squadron on the right will be under Senior Brother Na Yuan's command. Senior Brother Na Yuan, give your squadrons and squadrons a number. There's no need for complicated numbering. Squadrons will be numbered from one to five while squadrons will be numbered from one to ten."
Na Yuan nodded, then he immediately gave the squadrons and squads a number. Then Zhao Hai said, "Everyone, pay attention. During battle, each squad will be an individual unit. Remember, during battle, don't get separated from your squad. Don't leave your squad. Quickly!" Na Yuan nodded, then he immediately gave the order to the squadrons and squads.
Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at them and didn't say anything. He wanted them to form a formation, but Zhao Hai knew that it would be impossible. The people of the Iron Buddha Temple didn't have any military training. It would be very difficult for them to form a square formation, let alone other formations, it would be even more impossible for them to do so.
After the division, Zhao Hai and the others stood there and looked at the sky. At this time, the Southern Sea Alliance had stopped. The ten iron lotuses of the Iron Buddha Temple were also in the sky, confronting the other side.
Zhao Hai and the others couldn't see what the two sides were talking about. However, it was clear that the two sides weren't very happy. This was because after Zhao Hai and the others were divided into teams, the two sides had already started fighting in the sky.
However, the ten iron lotuses of the Iron Buddha Temple only made a feint before retreating back into the shield. At the same time, the other side's army began to besiege the shield. However, while they were attacking the shield, the ten iron lotuses would rush out from time to time and attack the other side before immediately retreating back into the shield.
The attack power of the Iron Lotus Temple's iron lotuses wasn't weak. Moreover, the other side was using beasts. This time, the shield that Zhao Hai and the others used was very high-level. They needed to use beasts to attack the shield. If they used ordinary artifacts to attack the shield, then it wouldn't work.
When they wanted to use the demon beasts to attack the barrier, the Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple would directly rush out of the barrier and attack the demon beasts that rushed up. Then it would immediately retreat back into the barrier, causing the South Sea Alliance Army to suffer a lot of casualties.
However, there were only ten iron lotuses. There were still a lot of places that they couldn't defend. This time, the Southern Sea Alliance had brought a lot of beasts. There were nearly a thousand of them.
At this time, a lot of people flew down from the iron lotuses. These people directly landed in the cave. When they arrived, they couldn't help but stare. This was because they saw Zhao Hai and the others guarding the cave.
At this time, Ze Wei also flew down. He looked at the situation in the cave and immediately said, "Jing Hai, did you arrange this?"
Zhao Hai immediately replied, "Martial Uncle, yes, I arranged it."
Ze Wei nodded and said, "Then tell me, what should we do?"
Zhao Hai wasn't polite as he said, "All Inner Disciples will be divided into three teams. One team will enter the cave to rest. The other two teams will move with us. If the other side's Inner Disciples come to deal with us, then we'll ask the Inner Disciples to deal with them. Martial Uncle, you will command the Elders to block the Elders' attacks."
Ze Wei nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll do as you say. All Inner Disciples will be divided into three teams. One team will enter the cave to rest. The other two teams will join the other two teams. Quickly!" The inner court disciples nodded and immediately divided into three groups. One group went directly into the cave, while the other two groups were placed between Zhao and the other two groups.
Then Zhao Hai opened his mouth and said, "Martial Uncle, please send a letter to the Martial Uncles who went to explore the cave. Ask them to come back and help. Let them divide into three teams. Two teams will come out to support, and one team will stay in the cave as a reserve. How to split up, just ask them to ask the team in the cave."
Ze Wei nodded. Then with a move of his hand, a Buddhist seal flew out of his hand and entered the cave. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
At this time, the battle in the sky was still very fierce. Ze Wei sent Ze Zhen back to the cave to look after the two formations. Ze Zhen didn't say anything and just went straight into the cave.
The two formations were still in operation. Because the enemy hadn't broken through the barrier yet, they couldn't enter the illusory light formation. Therefore, Ze Wei wasn't very worried.
After fighting for about half an hour, the island's barrier shook more and more violently. Finally, the barrier was broken and the South China Sea Alliance Army directly rushed into the island.
However, as soon as the South China Sea Coalition Army rushed into the island, they immediately felt that something was wrong. This was because as soon as they entered the island, they couldn't see anything. Their surroundings seemed to have fallen into darkness. As they walked forward, they found that their surroundings seemed to have turned into a forest. In this forest, there were all kinds of trees, but they couldn't see anyone. They couldn't even see the people on their sides. When those who were riding the war beasts looked down, sure enough, they couldn't even see their own war beasts.
They immediately knew that they had fallen into an illusory formation. These Cultivators immediately used their own methods to break the formation. However, the Iron Buddha Temple didn't give them the opportunity. The Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple immediately began to attack these people.
One must know that the people of the South China Sea Alliance Army were currently in an illusory formation. They thought that everything around them was an illusion. Moreover, they knew that if a beast suddenly appeared around them, it would be best not to attack it. This was because these beasts might be their own companions.
They were all experienced people, so they understood this point. However, they miscalculated this time. They thought that the beasts were all illusions, or they were their own people. They didn't expect the people of the Iron Buddha Temple to take the opportunity to attack. Therefore, when they thought that the beasts around them weren't dangerous, they were directly attacked. Some Cultivators were directly killed while others were able to block the attack. However, they didn't dare to trust the people around them.
However, the people of the South China Sea Alliance Army weren't to be trifled with. Soon, some people who were proficient in formations understood the principles of the formation. Although they couldn't break the formation, they were no longer affected by it. There were even some people who destroyed the formation flags of the formation.
However, the formation flags of the illusory formation were originally used as support. Destroying the formation flags didn't mean that it would be useful. However, the destruction of the formation flags would cause the formation's power to decrease. Many high-level Cultivators could use their spiritual force to see the illusions. They knew that the illusions were fake, that they were their own people, and that they were their enemies. This way, the Iron Buddha Temple wouldn't be able to rely on it.
It wasn't until more and more people from the South China Sea Alliance Army arrived on the island that the battle finally began. The Iron Lotus Platform of the Iron Buddha Temple was still attacking the beasts of the South China Sea Alliance Army. This made the beasts unable to land on the ground and attack Zhao Hai's group. Because of this, the Cultivators of the South China Sea Alliance Army could only jump down from their beasts and attack Zhao Hai's group from the ground.
Zhao Hai had been waiting for these people for a long time. When he saw them coming, he immediately shouted, "Everyone, prepare yourselves. Inner disciples, prepare yourselves. Half of the people, prepare yourselves to attack them with artifacts. The other half, prepare yourselves to prevent their inner disciples from attacking us. Outer disciples in the front row, prepare yourselves to fight. Outer disciples in the back row, prepare yourselves for air defense. Elders, please pay attention to the enemy's attacks!"
After a series of orders were issued, the entire Iron Buddha Temple began to prepare. Everyone was waiting for the enemy to attack. At this time, footsteps could be heard coming from the cave behind Zhao Hai's group. Zhao Hai knew that the people who entered the mine had come out. He couldn't help but feel relieved. He knew that they would soon have reinforcements.
