Zhao Hai's voice was suddenly heard, causing the crowd to calm down. "Everyone, line up properly. The reserves have already entered the cave. Don't come out without orders."
Zhao Hai looked at these people and didn't say anything. He knew that these people's reactions were normal. It would be strange if they didn't react this way. After all, the strength of the enemy this time was too big.
Looking at the slowly approaching enemies, Zhao Hai couldn't help but take a deep breath. This was because there were too many enemies this time. There were several thousand beasts and nearly twenty thousand people. Such a number was too much.
The Iron Buddha Temple didn't leave the island this time. Wu Du took the Elders of the Iron Buddha Temple and flew into the air. However, they were all inside the shield. Because of the illusory formation, the people outside couldn't see the situation inside. They were now waiting for the other party to attack. Then they would use the shield to deal a heavy blow.
This time, the Iron Buddha Temple didn't only send out their Iron Lotus Platforms. The Elders also took out their artifacts. It seems like they were preparing to deal a heavy blow to the enemy when they hit the shield with their beasts.
Zhao Hai and the others were still guarding the entrance of the cave. Just like the last time, there were about two thousand people stationed here. There were also a thousand reserves inside the cave. However, there were still a lot of people inside the ore vein. However, these people were currently busy mining and didn't come out.
Soon, the people of the South China Sea Coalition Army began to attack. However, their attack this time was a bit interesting. They didn't let the beasts hit the shield directly. Instead, they let the beasts attack the shield with spells. Although the damage to the shield wasn't big, it would still consume the shield. Moreover, they had a lot of beasts this time. If they were to fight with each other, then the energy of the shield might be depleted.
However, in Zhao Hai's view, these people from the South Sea Coalition Army were really stupid. They didn't think about letting the beasts attack a single point. If they really did that, then the shield would be broken in a few moments.
Looking at their appearance, it seems like the beasts wouldn't attack like this. They might not have trained the beasts to attack as a group. However, this was also normal. The people of the Sword Spirit Realm believed in individual strength too much. They pursue individual strength to the peak. Because of this, they didn't think about training the disciples of the Sects like an army. This was because they were too superstitious about individual strength.
Now, they had the battle beasts attack the shield. Although the battle beasts wouldn't be injured by Iron Lotus Platform's sudden attack, their attack efficiency would become very slow. If both sides were to continue like this, who knows how many days it would take for them to waste.
Zhao Hai can also see that the people of the South Sea Coalition Army didn't care about the crystal mine. What they really cared about was the island. As long as the Iron Buddha Temple doesn't occupy the island, then they can slowly search for the crystal mine.
When Wu Du saw the other party attacking with spells, his expression couldn't help but change. Then he coldly snorted and didn't let his people attack. The number of Iron Lotus Platforms they had was too small. If they attack now, then they would still be some distance away from the other party's beasts. By the time they arrive in front of the beasts, the other party would already be ready. If they were really surrounded by the other party, then it would be even more troublesome.
However, Wu Du was unwilling to just watch the other party use spells to slowly wear down the island's shield. He looked at the other party's beasts with fire in his eyes, but he couldn't do anything for a while.
At this moment, Ze Wei, who was standing on the same iron lotus platform as Wudu, said in a deep voice, "Martial Uncle, we can ask Jing Hai and see if he has any ideas. That kid is clever and might be able to think of something."
When Wu Du heard Ze Wei, he stared for a moment before he nodded and said, "Right, that kid Jing Hai has a lot of ideas. We can have him think of a way. Ze Wei, bring Jing Hai here and have him command us. Let's see if he can come up with a solution. If he can really command us to deal with those fellows, then that kid would be very useful in the future." Ze Wei nodded and said, "Alright.
When Ze Wei heard Wu Du, he stared for a moment before he immediately understood. Wu Du's meaning was very clear, he wanted Zhao Hai to command the Iron Lotus Platforms. These Iron Lotus Platforms were the Iron Buddha Temple's large artifacts. If the Iron Buddha Temple were to fight against other sects in the future, then it would be unavoidable for them to use these large artifacts. If Zhao Hai were to command the Iron Lotus Platforms like how he commanded the Outer Court Disciples, then the Iron Buddha Temple would have a huge advantage in the future.
Ze Wei nodded and immediately jumped down from the Iron Lotus Platform. Then he went directly to the cave below. Zhao Hai was standing at the entrance of the cave. Since the enemy hadn't attacked yet, they didn't need to do anything. Seeing Ze Wei come back, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare.
Ze Wei opened his mouth and said, "Jing Hai, you arrange this place. Let someone else command it. Come with me."
Zhao Hai stared, then he nodded and said, "Alright. Senior Brother Na Yu, Senior Brother Na Zhen, Senior Brother Na Yin, and Senior Brother Na Yuan, I'll leave this place to you. Senior Brother Na Yu will be in charge, the other three will help you."
Na Yu and the others came out and gave Ze Wei a salute. Then Na Yu turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Junior Brother Jing Hai, don't worry. Leave this place to us."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Senior Brother Na Yu, remember, don't let the formation leave the entrance of the cave. It's better to not chase after the enemy than to leave this place. This is because this is our escape route. If we leave this place, the enemy might take the opportunity to attack the cave. If they destroy the transmission formation, then it would be troublesome." Na Yu nodded and said, "Senior Brother Na Yu, remember this.
Na Yu nodded, then Zhao Hai was taken by Ze Wei. Before long, they arrived on top of the Iron Lotus Platform. This Iron Lotus Platform was Wu Du's Iron Lotus Platform.
When Zhao Hai arrived on top of Iron Lotus Platform, he quickly gave Wu Du a salute. Wu Du waved his hand and said, "Jing Hai, there's no need for that. The enemy is currently using spells to attack our shields. If this continues, then our shields would be broken through sooner or later. But if we go out and attack, then we might be surrounded. If that happens, then it would be troublesome. Do you have any ideas?" Wu Du nodded and said, "Don't worry.
Zhao Hai looked at the South Sea Alliance's Beast Formation. This time, the South Sea Alliance was smart. They weren't in a hurry to attack. Instead, they began to fight steadily. It can be seen that they also understood that this was their territory. They can continue to fight with the Iron Buddha Temple, but the Iron Buddha Temple might not be able to do the same. Because of this, they weren't in a hurry. Unlike last time, they didn't want to drive away the Iron Buddha Temple's people.
At this time, there weren't many people on top of the beasts that were attacking the island's barrier. It seems like they were dealing with the Iron Buddha Temple's attacks. On the other hand, there were a lot of people on top of the beast army. It was clear that once the barrier is broken, then they would directly attack the island.
Zhao Hai thought for a moment, then he said, "Martial Ancestor, we can dive into the water from the island and circle around to their back. From there, we can attack their battle beasts. Moreover, there are a lot of Cultivators standing on their battle beasts. If we attack those Cultivators, not only would we be able to kill their battle beasts, we would also be able to injure those Cultivators. The more Cultivators are injured, the less they would be able to attack the island. What do you think, Martial Ancestor?"
Wu Du looked at the South Sea's Beast Army and saw that it was just as Zhao Hai said. There were a lot of people on top of the beasts. Moreover, it was clear that these people were all Outer Court Disciples. They shouldn't be able to fly. If they attack the beasts, then the Outer Court Disciples would fall from the beasts. Even if they fall into the sea, they would still fall to their deaths. This way, there would be fewer enemies attacking the island.
Wu Du immediately nodded and said, "Alright, then let's do that. Jing Hai, you don't need to go back. Stay with me on the lotus platform. I want you to help me think of some ideas. Kid, you really do have a lot of ideas."
Zhao Hai chanted Buddha's name but didn't say anything. Wu Du laughed and then told the people on the other lotus platforms what Zhao Hai said. Then their lotus platforms slowly descended until they reached the edge of the island. Then they directly dived into the water.
The iron lotus platform could actually enter the water. After entering the water, the petals of the iron lotus platform all retracted, just like a flower. Suddenly, all the petals retracted, turning into a flower bud. Moreover, the lotus platform had a protective shield, so the seawater couldn't enter the lotus platform. However, the speed of the lotus platform was greatly affected.
Wu Du didn't talk to Zhao Hai as he steered the Iron Lotus Platform forward. After some time, Wu Du opened his mouth and said, "We're here. Jing Hai, we're already behind their formation. Even if we go up slowly, I believe that they wouldn't notice us. We're already quite a distance away from them."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "Ancestor, let's go up and see the situation. Then we'll decide how to attack."
Wu Du nodded, then he commanded the Iron Lotus Platform to slowly fly up to the surface. Then the group looked up and discovered that they were already ten li behind the enemy army. Moreover, the enemy army's attention was focused on the island. They simply didn't pay attention to them.
Zhao Hai looked at the enemy's formation and thought for a moment before he said, "Ancestor, our attack this time is to immediately jump after hitting them. We can't let them entangle us. If we do, then we'll be in trouble. Therefore, we'll rush in from this position behind them. Don't rush into the formation, we should stay close to the edge of the formation. This way, we can injure their beasts. At the same time, we won't be surrounded by the enemy. What do you think, Ancestor?" As Zhao Hai spoke, he gestured. One of his hands formed a fist while the other hand formed a palm. Then his palm brushed against the side of his fist, making Wu Du understand what he meant.
