Slowly moving forward, Zhao Hai has been in the sea for more than five hours. However, he still hasn't seen anything. He only felt that there were more and more surveillance around him, which made him feel very inconvenient.
Zhao Hai looked around. Among the sea beasts that were swimming around, no matter how big or small they were, at least three of them were monitoring the surroundings. This level of surveillance was really surprising.
Zhao Hai became even more careful. Fortunately, there were more sea beasts that were free and weren't controlled by the people of the Seventy-two Islands. Moreover, there were also a lot of small octopuses. Otherwise, he would've been discovered.
After flying for another two hours, Zhao Hai was now at least ten days away from the trading island. However, he still hasn't seen what the Seventy-two Islands were protecting.
Just when Zhao Hai thought that it would take a long time to see what the 72 Islands were protecting, he suddenly discovered that there were a lot of sea beasts patrolling in front of him. He immediately became more careful. It didn't take long for him to notice that there were indeed a lot of sea beasts patrolling in front of him. Moreover, there were a lot of sea beasts patrolling in front of him. There were big ones and small ones. The big ones were about a hundred meters long and had people sitting on top of them. The small ones were about ten meters long and had people sitting on top of them. The only difference was the number of people sitting on top of them.
Zhao Hai stopped and carefully observed these people. These people didn't care about the small sea beasts around them. They didn't even look at them as they directly walked past them. After about ten minutes, another group of sea beasts would come over. They were also patrolling. And after ten minutes, another group of people would come over.
Zhao Hai was now sure that the interval between these patrols was ten minutes. Once they discovered something, the other patrols would immediately rush over and attack the enemy.
Zhao Hai understood that he would soon be able to see what the people of the 72 Islands were protecting. In the end, the answer would soon be revealed. Zhao Hai suppressed his excitement and slowly dived forward.
After passing the patrol line, Zhao Hai didn't go too far before he discovered a trench in front of him. This made Zhao Hai even more shocked. He didn't think that there would be a trench here. The Golden Jasper Sword quickly arrived at the trench. But when it reached the edge of the trench, Zhao Hai was stunned.
This couldn't be called a trench anymore. It should be called a submarine basin. In this submarine basin, countless cultivators of the Seventy-two Islands were busy in a huge city.
Zhao Hai wasn't mistaken, this was a huge city. Its area was very large. It seems like it used to be a city that could accommodate millions of people. The city stood there quietly. The people of the Seventy-two Islands were currently busy outside the city. They couldn't enter the city at all.
Zhao Hai noticed that sometimes sea beasts would swim directly above the city, but nothing would happen to them. But when these sea beasts fell into the city, the situation would be completely different. As long as these sea beasts entered the city, they would immediately turn into a pool of blood and disappear from the city. Zhao Hai noticed that sometimes sea beasts would directly swim to the top of the city, but nothing would happen to them.
Seeing this, Zhao Hai immediately understood that there were a lot of restrictions inside the city. If these restrictions couldn't be broken, then entering the city would be very dangerous. Because of this, the people from the 72 Islands could only stay outside the city. Zhao Hai didn't know what to do. He didn't know what to do. Instead, he knew that Zhao Hai didn't know what to do.
Zhao Hai carefully observed a part of the city's periphery that had been cleared out by the people of the South Sea's 72 Isles. This part of the city was about ten kilometers wide. It seems like the people of the South Sea had been busy here for a long time.
The city was really big. In addition to the center of the city, there were also many houses outside the city walls. The number of houses was very large. At this time, the people of the Seventy-two Islands didn't even get close to the city walls. They were still busy outside the city.
It can be assumed that the people of the Seventy-two Islands had a good harvest outside the city. Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent so many people to guard the city. The inside of the city was even more extraordinary. From Zhao Hai's point of view, he could clearly see the pavilions and towers inside the city. At the center of the city, there was a huge building. This building was very tall, about a kilometer in height. On this building, there were countless engravings of demons and ghosts. However, these demons and ghosts seemed to be servants. There were also some people wearing cultivator robes with a halo above their head standing high in the sky. Looking at these demons and ghosts, Zhao Hai knew what they meant. These people must be the masters of the city. However, he didn't know who they were and what kind of city it was.
Seeing this, Zhao Hai completely understood why the 72 Isles wanted to protect this place. It wasn't just because it was the ruins of a Great Sect, it was also because it was a Sky City. As long as this place is repaired and the shield is reconstructed, then it would become another stronghold of the 72 Isles. Zhao Hai didn't expect that this place would become a Sky City. He didn't expect that this place would become a Sky City.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai finally let out a long breath. Knowing this was enough. He didn't think about going to the city right now. Although he could sneak into the city silently, he would soon trigger the city's mechanisms. At that time, he would be discovered by the people of the Seventy-two Islands. Therefore, what he needed to do now was to spread the news. He absolutely couldn't let the Seventy-two Islands monopolize this place. Otherwise, it would be very disadvantageous for the Exploring Sea Sect.
Zhao Hai commanded the Golden Jasper Sword to go back. This time, he wasn't in a hurry. He walked slowly like an octopus. Finally, after a few days, he returned to the trading island and returned to his room in the night.
After Zhao Hai returned to his room on the island, he rested for the night. The next morning, he opened the door and went out. In the past few days, the beast that he brought out from the Space had grown a lot bigger. Because of this, Zhao Hai could say that he was raising the beast and didn't go out at all.
At this time, the beast wasn't just coiled around Zhao Hai's waist. In fact, only its tail was on Zhao Hai's waist. Its body was lying on Zhao Hai's back while its head was resting on Zhao Hai's shoulder. It looked very strange.
When Shui Zhi saw Zhao Hai come out, he looked at the beast on Zhao Hai's back. If he didn't know what Zhao Hai was doing, then he would've thought that Zhao Hai was raising a beast. He didn't think that Zhao Hai would actually go to the sea.
Shui Zhi looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, you're out. How was your harvest this time?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It was a great harvest. Look, this little thing is growing very well. Alright, it's about time. Actually, I ended my seclusion last night, but it was too late, so I didn't come out. We should also leave according to our original plan."
Shui Zhi nodded and said, "Alright, Young Master. Then should we go now?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Let's go. Let's go now." Then they directly checked out of the room. Then Zhao Hai took out his iron bowl. The two got on and flew towards the ship. After they left, the boss of the shop released a spell and flew towards the ship.
After the two flew for a while, Shui Zhi looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, what did you get this time? Did the people from the 72 Southern Islands do something? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It's the people from the 72 Southern Islands. About 12 days away from the island, there's a huge underground city. It might be the ruins of a sect. I don't know why, but it sunk into the ground. The people from the 72 Southern Islands are currently developing the city. However, they're only circling around the city's periphery. They have no way to enter the city."
"A city in the sea?" Shui Zhi looked at Zhao Hai in disbelief.
"Yes, a city in the sea. Moreover, it's a very big city. It looks like it can accommodate millions of people. It's a rare city."
"Young Master, what do we do now? Do we find a way to enter the city? "
"No, we won't go in. We have to send this news back to the Iron Buddha Temple and the Myriad Buddha Temple. Then, we'll put pressure on the seventy-two islands to develop that place together. It's impossible to make the seventy-two islands give up on such a juicy piece of meat in their mouths."
"But won't we lose too much this way? It's obvious that we're the ones who discovered this secret, but now we have to share it with everyone. We won't get many benefits. "
"Hehe, Shui Zhi, you have to remember, you have to be willing to give up something. If we do it ourselves, then we won't get any benefits. We might even get into a deadlock with the Seventy-two Islands because of this matter. Although we are now people of the Iron Buddha Temple, this won't do us any good. If we make too big of a commotion, then the news will spread out. At that time, everyone will know about it and we won't be in a good position. So why don't we share this matter with everyone? This way, we will get a share of the benefits and we won't attract any hatred. Isn't this better? What people hate the most is being too greedy. "
"Yes, I understand, Young Master. Then should we pass the news back to the Iron Buddha Temple?"
"There's no need to hurry. From the way the 72 Southern Islands are protecting the city, it's not just a day or two that they found it. But now, they're still circling around the city. I think it's impossible for them to enter the city without at least a few decades. Because the city's mechanisms and formations are complete, we don't need to worry. Let's do our own things first. After we're done, it won't be too late to take care of him."
"Yes, Young Master, I understand."
Zhao Hai and the others arrived at the ship in the evening. Zhang Shuwei was waiting for them there. Upon seeing them, Zhang Shuwei immediately greeted them. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Junior Brother Jing Hai, what took you so long? I thought you'd be back in two days. I didn't expect you to take so long. " It's been seven days since Zhao Hai left the ship. Zhang Shuwei's words were reasonable.
