The Four Beasts Island was one of the 39 Southern Islands. Among the 39 Southern Islands, it was clearly in the middle. The reason why it was called the Four Beasts Island wasn't because of the four types of beasts on the island. Instead, it was because of the four huge rocks surrounding the island. These four rocks looked like four beasts, hence the name Four Beasts Island.
The island that Zhao Hai and the others appeared on wasn't very far from the Four Beasts Island. If they were to fly, then it would only take them four hours to reach the main island of the Four Beasts Island.
However, after Zhao Hai's army arrived on the island, they didn't immediately attack it. Zhao Hai first sent a small team to the vicinity of the Four Beasts Island to conduct a reconnaissance. The main purpose of the reconnaissance was to see the defensive situation of the Four Beasts Island. At the same time, they also wanted to see how many people were on the island.
Zhao Hai was very satisfied with the result. The defense of the Four Beasts Island wasn't very tight, and there weren't many people on the island. It can be seen that the main force of the island has already been transferred away. For Zhao Hai and the others, this was good news. This would make their attack much smoother.
After receiving the results of the reconnaissance, Zhao Hai gathered everyone together. This time, Gui Xinyu didn't come along, but Jie Yiming did. This was because Gui Xinyu wanted to take care of the Divine Turtle Island. They were worried that the people from the 39 Southern Islands would attack the Northern Islands. The Divine Turtle Island would bear the brunt of the attack.
In the temporary command post on the island, everyone was gathered by Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Everyone already knows about the results of the reconnaissance. The defenses of the Four Beasts Island aren't very strong, and there aren't many people on the island. This is our opportunity. Therefore, I want to take the island in one fell swoop. It's best if we do it quietly."
Everyone looked at Zhao Hai, wanting to hear what he had to say next. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Four Beast Island is about four hours away from here. Our army's speed might be slower, so it would take about five hours. Therefore, we should set out before dark and arrive at Four Beast Island. However, we shouldn't attack immediately. Let everyone rest for one or two hours before we attack. First, I'll use the jade compass to break the island's defensive formation. Then I'll use the barrier formation to seal the island so that the people on the island wouldn't be able to send messages to the outside. After that, we'll attack Four Beast Island with all our strength. As long as we can capture Four Beast Island, we can use the island's transmission formation to capture the entire island in the shortest time possible. After that, we can use the island's transmission formation to attack the other islands. As long as we succeed, we can capture several islands in one fell swoop. At that time, we won't have a firm foothold in the 39 Southern Isles. Even if the army of the 39 Southern Isles arrives, we wouldn't need to worry, we can just lead them by the nose." Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, "Four Beast Island is about four hours away from here. Our army's speed might be a bit slower, so it should take about five hours before we arrive. So what I mean is, we should set out before dark and arrive at Four Beast Island.
Jie Yiming asked, "How are we going to lead them by the nose?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "This is very simple. As long as we take the Four Beast Island, we can know the coordinates of the other islands in the south. When the time comes, we can attack wherever we want. We can even use illusion formations to create illusions, making it easier for us to deal with those guys." Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Alright.
Jie Yiming and the others still didn't understand Zhao Hai's plan, but they didn't say anything. Zhao Hai said, "The army has rested for two days, it's about time. Let's set out this afternoon and have the army get ready."
Everyone immediately complied and went to prepare. This was their first battle against the 39 Southern Islands. They wanted to do a good job, so they prepared very seriously.
Before long, it was already three in the afternoon. Under Zhao Hai's command, the army began to move towards the Four Beasts Island. While the army was moving forward, Zhao Hai had the army send out a lot of scouts. These scouts were responsible for cleaning up the people around the army. They were very far away from the army. Moreover, they were fast and strong. As long as they saw someone, no matter who it was, they would immediately kill them. This way, no one would be able to send a message to the Four Beasts Island.
After eight o 'clock in the evening, Zhao Hai and the others finally arrived two hundred li away from the Four Beasts Island. It was impossible for the people of the Four Beasts Island to discover them here. And since the sky was still dark, they could rest here for two hours before attacking the island.
After two hours, it was already eleven o 'clock in the evening. At this time, the people of the Four Beasts Island were already resting. This was the best time for them to attack.
Zhao Hai waved his hand as the army silently rushed towards the Four Beasts Island. When they were fifty li away from the island, Zhao Hai suddenly sped up. At the same time, he also took out the Azure Compass. When he was close to the island, he sped up and activated the Azure Compass. When he was close to the island, he directly rushed into the defensive formation of the Four Beasts Island. Just as the defensive formation of the Four Beasts Island was about to flash, it suddenly disappeared. Then the island was immediately covered by another formation. At this time, the army of the 33 Northern Islands arrived. They directly rushed into the Four Beasts Island and began to attack the people on the island.
Zhao Hai only took a few minutes to break the formation and activate the formation. Before the people on the island could understand what was going on, Zhao Hai had already broken the defensive formation of the Four Beasts Island. At the same time, the formation was set up.
When the people on the Four Beasts Island reacted, the alarm sounded. The army of the 33 Northern Islands had already arrived. The people on the Four Beasts Island couldn't even organize an effective resistance before they were directly destroyed by Zhao Hai and the others. The Island Lord and several Elders of the Four Beasts Island tried to resist, but they were quickly killed by Zhao Hai and the other Island Lords.
The entire battle didn't seem like a battle at all, it was more like a drill. Zhao Hai and the others only used three hours to capture the Four Beasts Island.
After capturing the Four Beasts Island, Zhao Hai and the others immediately used the island's transmission formation to capture all of the Four Beasts Island's Branch Halls. At the same time, many of the Four Beasts Island's Branch Halls had already returned to the island. This made things easier for Zhao Hai and the others. It only took them a little more than four hours to capture all of the Four Beasts Island's Branch Halls.
After capturing the Four Beasts Island, it was already past midnight. Zhao Hai looked at the sky and then looked at the others. They didn't seem to be tired. This was because the attack was too smooth, it was beyond their imagination. Although some disciples of the Four Beasts Island managed to escape, most of them were killed or captured. Because of this, they weren't tired at all.
When Zhao Hai saw this situation, he immediately decided to continue the attack. This time, they would attack the closest island to the Four Beasts Island, the Eight-Foot Island.
Eight Foot Island was like its name. The most commonly used sea beasts on this island were octopuses. These giant octopuses were very powerful. Eight Foot Island was one of the more famous islands in the Southern Thirty-Nine Islands. Its strength was a lot stronger than Four Beast Island. Moreover, Zhao Hai hadn't investigated Eight Foot Island, so attacking it directly would be risky. However, Zhao Hai believed that this risk was worth it. This was because this was a good opportunity to capture Eight Foot Island in one fell swoop. Taking Eight Foot Island in one fell swoop before the news of Four Beast Island's capture spread. This would be good for them.
After discussing with the others, Zhao Hai decided to attack Eight-Foot Island. After making this decision, Zhao Hai immediately assigned tasks. The first to go to Eight-Foot Island was Zhao Hai. First, he would use the transmission formation to enter the island. Then he would activate the formation so that the people on the island wouldn't be able to escape. After that, the army would attack Eight-Foot Island.
However, this time, the first group to enter with Zhao Hai had to be strong enough. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to resist the Eight-Foot Island's counterattack.
After making this decision, Zhao Hai and the other experts prepared themselves. Then a thousand people entered the transmission formation of the Four Beasts Island. With a flash of white light, they disappeared from the transmission formation.
In the next moment, they appeared on the transmission formation of the Eight-Foot Island. As soon as they appeared, Zhao Hai immediately activated the formation. Not only would this formation cause the formations on the island to malfunction, it would also trap the people on the island, making it impossible for them to escape.
Just as Zhao Hai activated the formation, they were discovered by the people on the island. In fact, on islands like the Eight-Foot Island, the large transmission formations would be turned off at night, leaving only small transmission formations open. Because of the recent war, the large transmission formations were opened so that they could be used at any time.
This gave Zhao Hai and the others an opportunity. Zhao Hai and the others directly used the transmission formation to enter the island. The reaction of the people on the island could be considered fast. Just as Zhao Hai activated the formation, the alarm on the island rang. Then, people immediately rushed over.
Seeing this, Zhao Hai didn't panic at all. He immediately released the Eight Trigrams Sword Qi Formation and covered the transmission formation. At the same time, he used the formation to resist the enemy's attack.
Then the army of the Northern 33 Isles went through the transmission formation and killed their way to the island. Although the island resisted with all its might, it was still defeated in the end. As the army of the Northern 33 Isles continued to arrive, the people on the island slowly lost hope. In the end, when they discovered that the entire island was isolated and couldn't run, they directly surrendered. Among these people who surrendered was the Island Lord of the Eight-Foot Island.
In one night, they conquered two islands. This was a result that no one expected. In the past, no one would believe it. But now, they really did it!
