Zhao Hai looked at the room. This room was located on the highest floor of the ship. It was also the best room on the ship. The room was very big, there were two bedrooms, a living room, a small tea room, a quiet room, and other daily necessities.
Zhao Hai was very satisfied with this room. He also knew why Zhang Shuwei was so polite to him. It was because he was a Core Disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple. With such an identity, no matter where he went, nobody would dare to neglect him. Even Great Sects like the Myriad Buddha Temple would treat him well.
Moreover, it can be seen that Zhang Shuwei wanted to befriend him. Although Zhao Hai didn't know what Zhang Shuwei wanted, he knew that this kind of treatment wasn't something that anyone could receive.
Shui Zhi stood on the side and looked at the room before he said, "It seems pretty good. Young Master, I'll go make you a pot of tea."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, "We'll rest for the night. Tomorrow, we'll enter the Dark Trench." Shui Zhi complied and then went to prepare.
Just as the two drank a pot of tea, they heard a knock on the door. Then Zhang Shuwei's voice was heard, "Grandmaster Jing Hai, it's time for dinner. Would Grandmaster like to eat with me?"
Zhao Hai immediately replied, "Alright, I'll be right there." After he finished speaking, he stood up and nodded at Shui Zhi. The two of them then walked out of the room. Zhang Shuwei was waiting for them outside.
Upon seeing Zhao Hai, Zhang Shuwei immediately smiled faintly and said, "Grandmaster, it's time for dinner. Would you like to eat together?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Alright, Benefactor, please." Zhao Hai naturally wouldn't refuse. He also wanted to inquire about the Dark Trench from Zhang Shuwei.
Before long, the three arrived at the dining room on the upper floor. This dining room was specially prepared for the Cultivators who lived on the deck. Living here would cost at least 100 third-grade crystals per night. Rooms like Zhao Hai's were even more expensive. Ordinary Rogue Cultivators wouldn't be able to afford it.
Of course, if you spend a lot of money, the treatment you enjoy would naturally be different. The place where they ate was completely different from the Rogue Cultivators in the cabin. And since Zhang Shuwei wanted to make friends with Zhao Hai, it was natural for him to prepare a more sumptuous meal. All of the best ingredients that they could eat were taken out.
After Zhang Shuwei invited Zhao Hai to take a seat, he first poured a cup of wine. Then he raised his cup to Zhao Hai and said, "Grandmaster, please enjoy. I heard that the Iron Buddha Temple doesn't prohibit wine and meat. Therefore, I've prepared some wine today. Grandmaster, please enjoy."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "My Iron Buddha Temple doesn't prohibit wine and meat. Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha's heart remains. The temple doesn't encourage disciples to drink, but it doesn't prohibit it. This poor monk doesn't usually drink, but since Benefactor Zhang is so polite today, this poor monk will make an exception and drink two cups." Then he raised his cup and raised it to Zhang Shuwei. Then the two drank the wine.
After the two put down their cups, Zhang Shuwei smiled and said, "Every year, a lot of disciples from various sects come to the South Sea. It's rare to see someone with such a high status like Grandmaster. We should get closer in the future."
When he heard Zhang Shuwei, Zhao Hai stared for a moment before he immediately understood what he meant. Disciples from various sects would have personal relationships. For example, Zhang Shuwei clearly wanted to befriend Zhao Hai. One must know that in the Sword Spirit World, even the disciples of the various sects weren't very safe. Although ordinary people wouldn't dare to kill some core disciples, they wouldn't necessarily have the upper hand in their own sect's struggles. If Zhang Shuwei befriended disciples from other sects, then it would be even better. Even if it was inconvenient for Zhang Shuwei to do things himself, he could have the disciples of other sects do it for him.
It was precisely because of this that when the core disciples of the Great Sects gathered together, they were divided into groups. If you were a disciple of a Great Sect and didn't have any core disciples of other Sects as friends, then it would be a very shameful matter.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai immediately smiled and said, "Of course. Benefactor Zhang being so polite to this Poor Monk really makes this Poor Monk feel flattered. If Benefactor Zhang has the opportunity to visit the Iron Buddha Temple in the future, then this Poor Monk will certainly entertain you."
Zhang Shuwei smiled and said, "Grandmaster is too polite. I don't think that you and I need to call each other Grandmaster. Our Spirit Crab Island and the Iron Buddha Temple have some friendship. Our Island Lord has also visited the Iron Buddha Temple. How about we address each other as Senior Brother and Junior Brother?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright. Senior Brother Zhang, let's address each other as such in the future."
"Junior Brother Jing Hai is too polite. Come, let's eat. Although these things aren't very good, they are still very rare in the Sword Spirit World. Some of them are even special products of the Dark Oceanic Trench."
After Zhao Hai expressed his gratitude, he also tasted the Leaf Dao. The Leaf Dao was indeed very good, especially the demon beast meat. The meat was firm and very elastic. When it entered the mouth, there was a very elastic feeling. The Leaf Dao was very good. Moreover, the demon beast meat was very good for Iron Cultivators like Zhao Hai. It could supplement the blood essence of a Body Cultivator, which was very rare.
After eating this meal, Zhao Hai and Zhang Shuwei became closer. Both sides wanted to make friends with each other because it would be good for their future development. Therefore, the relationship between the two was quickly pulled closer.
Zhao Hai and Zhang Shuwei chatted until evening. Then Zhao Hai returned to his room to rest. To be honest, his impression of Zhang Shuwei was very good. He also knew that Zhang Shuwei was one of the top ten core disciples of the Spirit Crab Island. Making friends with such a character would be very beneficial for him in the future.
Naturally, making friends with Zhang Shuwei would bring even greater benefits. Not to mention his identity as the Sect Master of the Exploring Sea School, even his identity as a core disciple of the Iron Buddha Temple was no small matter. Additionally, he was also a very important person in the Iron Buddha Temple. Moreover, he was a very famous person in the Iron Buddha Temple. With such an identity, making friends with Zhang Shuwei wouldn't be a bad thing.
The next morning, Zhao Hai woke up early and went outside with Shui Zhi to stretch his body. Then he saw Zhang Shuwei. When Zhang Shuwei saw Zhao Hai, he smiled and greeted him, "Junior Brother Jing Hai, you woke up early. Come, let's have breakfast together. After breakfast, we'll have a good chat."
Zhao Hai quickly smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother Zhang. Breakfast is fine, but after breakfast, I'll have to enter the Dark Trench. I won't be able to chat with Senior Brother."
When Zhang Shuwei heard Zhao Hai, he couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Junior Brother Jing Hai, do you really want to enter the Dark Trench? The Gloomy Oceanic Trench is very dangerous. If Junior Apprentice Brother needs something from the Gloomy Oceanic Trench, just tell me. There's no need to take the risk. "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Senior Brother doesn't need to be polite. This time, I came out mainly to train myself. I've already decided to enter the Dark Trench. I just want to go down and have a look, not for the things inside."
When Zhang Shuwei heard Zhao Hai, he knew that there was no way to persuade Zhao Hai. He nodded and said, "Alright, let's go and eat. After we eat, I'll tell you more about the Dark Trench. Actually, I haven't been to the Dark Trench before. However, our Spirit Crab Island has collected a lot of information about the Dark Trench. Today, I'll tell you about it."
"Thank you, Senior Brother." While talking, Zhao Hai and Zhang Shuwei went to the dining hall. While the two were eating, Zhang Shuwei told Zhao Hai about the Dark Trench.
In the Dark Trench, the biggest enemy wasn't the beasts or other Cultivators, but the pressure and temperature of the Dark Trench.
Generally speaking, after Cultivators use shields, they wouldn't be afraid of the pressure. Temperature wasn't a problem for Cultivators. As long as a Cultivator cultivates for a few years, they would be able to resist the cold and heat. There was nothing to say about this.
However, Zhang Shuwei told Zhao Hai that the pressure and temperature of the Dark Trench weren't a joke. First of all, the pressure in the Dark Trench was much greater than the outside world. Moreover, the deeper you go, the greater the pressure. Your shield might be able to withstand it in the beginning, but once you reach 200 meters, your shield wouldn't be able to withstand it. Because of this, most Cultivators would use artifacts to protect themselves instead of relying on shields. Once you reach 500 meters, the pressure would increase exponentially. If you don't use spiritual qi to maintain yourself, then the pressure would quickly push you into the Dark Trench. In the end, you would sink forever, never to return.
This was a major feature of the pressure in the Dark Trench. Not only would it squeeze your body, but it would also create a downward pull. It was as if there was an invisible hand pulling you down. If you weren't careful and went too deep into the Dark Trench, then you would never be able to come out.
Another thing was the temperature. The temperature in the Dark Trench was definitely one of the biggest enemies of Cultivators. Those who underestimate it would definitely suffer a big loss. They might even die in the Dark Trench.
The temperature in the Dark Trench was fine at the top 100 meters, there wouldn't be a big change. However, the deeper you go, the colder it would get. This kind of cold wasn't the kind of cold that would freeze. It was a kind of cold that was unknowingly cold. In the beginning, you wouldn't even notice the change in temperature. When you feel the cold, you would feel that your body was already frozen. Even if you wanted to struggle, you wouldn't have the strength to do so.
Especially at the depth of 500 meters, the temperature would drop to a terrifying degree. If you didn't bring one or two fire attribute magic tools to keep your body warm at all times, then you might really freeze to death in the dark trench.
In addition to the pressure and temperature, there were also the sea beasts and other Cultivators. The sea beasts in the Dark Trench were very strong, and their defense was also very strong. They were also very dangerous. A lot of Cultivators who went to hunt sea beasts ended up becoming food for the sea beasts.
As for other Cultivators, this was even easier to explain. In any place, fighting was inevitable. Especially in a place where there were benefits, fighting was inevitable. Therefore, in the Dark Trench, it was necessary to guard against any Cultivator. Otherwise, you might suffer a big loss.
