Zhao Hai was now certain that the person in charge of the Evil Ghost Sect Alliance was definitely not Gui Yin. Gui Yin was just a puppet that was pushed to the front. The only person in charge of the Evil Ghost Sect Alliance was the Demon Sword Sect. The Demon Sword Sect used four years to perfect their plan. It was absolutely impossible for them to hand over this plan to Gui Yin. Therefore, the person in charge of the Evil Ghost Sect Alliance was definitely not someone from the Evil Ghost Sect Alliance, and it was even more impossible for it to be Gui Yin.
Although Gui Yin's status in the Evil Ghost Sect wasn't low, it was impossible for him to complete the huge plan of the Demon Sword Sect. Therefore, the commander must be someone else.
This person was a very careful person. He understood the principle of advancing step by step. He also understood that the last time they dealt with the Iron Buddha Temple and the Sea Exploring Sect, they were too anxious. This made the Myriad Buddhas Temple vigilant. Therefore, their operation this time was very secretive and very careful. They didn't let the Myriad Buddhas Temple get hold of any evidence. They didn't participate in any attack and just planned from the north. This was already very terrifying.
Moreover, their first step in this operation was very careful, and it was all planned by them. They first attacked the Profound Sky Sect, and then used the Profound Sword Sect to attack the Profound Sky Sect, taking down the Profound Sky Sect in one fell swoop. This way, not only did they obtain the territory of the Command Heaven Sect, but also damaged the morale of the South China Sea Alliance and their strength.
Most importantly, they obtained the three islands of the Profound Sky Sect in the South China Sea. They could use these three islands as a base to attack the 33 Oceanic Islands.
As for the people of the Thirty-Three Islands of the Southern Sea, they would naturally return as soon as they heard that their islands were under attack. In this way, the Black Sky Sect Alliance would also disappear. In that case, there would only be one true enemy left in the Sword Spirit Realm — the Scouring Sea Sect.
The people of the Demon Sword Sect were very clear about how the Sea Exploring Sect was established. Although the strength of the Sea Exploring Sect had been constantly developing in recent years, in their view, the strength of the Sea Exploring Sect was still incomparable to the 33 Oceanic Islands and the Profound Sky Sect Alliance. Therefore, in their view, as long as the reinforcements of the 33 Oceanic Islands returned to the South China Sea, they would be able to smoothly take down the Sea Exploring Sect.
Of course, if the South Sea's reinforcements didn't withdraw, then they could attack the South Sea with all their might. Then, they could attack the Sea Exploring Sect. With a pincer attack, the Sea Exploring Sect would definitely lose.
Their plan was perfect, and Zhao Hai had to admit that their plan was good. However, the biggest failure of their plan was that they misjudged the strength of the Sea Exploring Sect, as well as Zhao Hai's strength.
They believed that Zhao Hai's strength lay in his personal fighting strength, while the Sea Exploring Sect wasn't necessarily that strong. Perhaps in their opinion, four years wasn't enough for the Sea Exploring Sect to do anything. They also couldn't use four years to make the Sea Exploring Sect stronger.
It was precisely because of this idea that the Demon Sword Sect made such a plan. They didn't expect Zhao Hai to actually reform the Sect's inheritance method. This allowed the Sea Exploring Sect's strength to make a qualitative leap in the past four years. This was the biggest failure of their plan. Zhao Hai didn't expect the Demon Sword Sect to have such a plan.
And destroying the South Sea was only a part of the Demon Sword Sect's plan. Their final plan was the entire Sword Spirit World. They wanted the entire Sword Spirit World, not the South Sea. The South Sea was just a bait, a bait to lure the fish.
If the Demon Sword Sect really took the South Sea, then the Myriad Buddhas Temple wouldn't just stand by and watch. They would also get involved. This was because the Myriad Buddhas Temple had been coveting the South Sea for a long time. It was impossible for them to give up this opportunity. When the time comes, they would think of ways to get a piece of the South Sea.
However, this was also what the Demon Sword Sect wanted. They wanted the Myriad Buddhas Temple to do this. Once the Myriad Buddhas Temple did this, the Demon Sword Sect would be able to openly intervene in the Sword Spirit Boundary. At that time, they would have the support of more than half of the sects in the Sword Spirit Boundary. They would also have the South Sea in their hands. With endless resources, they could compete with the Myriad Buddhas Temple.
In fact, the Demon Sword Sect didn't consider the Sea Exploring Sect as their opponent. In their view, the Sea Exploring Sect was just a small pebble that was blocking their path. They could kick this pebble away or even crush it. What they wanted was the South Sea and its resources. With these resources, they could compete with the other sects. At the same time, they wanted to use the South Sea as bait. It can be said that their ambition was very big.
However, the people of the Demon Sword Sect would never have thought that the person they regarded as a small stone was actually a nail, a huge iron nail.
In the next few days, the Sea Exploring Sect was very quiet. The Evil Ghost Sect didn't attack them. However, the South Sea was different. The South Sea was currently in a fierce battle. The South Sea Allied Army and the invading army were locked in a fierce battle. Both sides fought back and forth, causing a lot of casualties.
In the past few days, Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and the others went to the Sword Tomb. They were now members of the Sea Exploring Sect. Naturally, the Sea Exploring Sect wouldn't hide anything from them. They were told about the current situation of the Sea Exploring Sect as well as its rules.
The rules of the Sea Exploring Sect were different from the rules of other sects. The Sea Exploring Sect didn't have a strong sense of competition. However, there were targets set by the sect. If you couldn't meet the targets, then you would be punished. Of course, if you had a legitimate reason for not meeting the targets, then nobody would criticize you. However, if you were lazy and didn't meet the targets, then the sect's punishment would be very heavy.
Of course, Daoist Master Ferocious Tiger and the others were also astonished by the treatment of the Sea Exploring Sect. The treatment of the Sea Exploring Sect was so good that it shocked them. It was about five times better than when they were in the Black Sky Sect.
In addition to these benefits, the Sea Exploring Sect's records of the disciples were very detailed. At first, Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and the others thought that the Sea Exploring Sect was using this method to probe them. However, they soon realized that this wasn't the case. The Sea Exploring Sect's first disciple's situation would be recorded in detail. Then, according to the disciple's cultivation situation, the allocation of medicinal pills and materials would be carried out. Many of the Mysterious Sky Sect's disciples' magic tools were even replaced.
The sect would even make a very detailed plan for their cultivation. It was best for them to train according to the content of the plan so that they could improve faster.
This series of changes was completed within a few days. Naturally, the people of the Mysterious Sky Sect were very surprised. The people of the Mysterious Sky Sect didn't expect the Sea Exploring Sect to be such an existence.
Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger also found a few disciples of the Mysterious Sky Sect and carefully looked at the contents of the sect's cultivation regulations. Some of them were very accurate. Those who cultivated according to the requirements of the Sea Exploring Sect improved very quickly. However, some of them weren't very accurate. However, this wasn't the problem of the Sea Exploring Sect. It was the problem of the cultivator himself. He didn't clearly state his strength, or rather, he hid his strength and concealed his situation. Naturally, the Sea Exploring Sect's regulations were far from accurate.
After learning about this situation, Daoist Master Ferocious Tiger immediately asked the disciples to report their true strength. Then, according to their strength, the sect would help them make a plan. It could be said that after this incident, these people would be fully integrated into the Sea Exploring Sect.
In fact, Zhao Hai had always been paying attention to the situation in the Sword Tomb. He knew very well that if Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger and the others could really integrate into the Sea Exploring Sect, it would be of great help to them.
The Black Sky Sect treated the people in the area under their control very well. It could be said that they were very popular in the area under the Black Sky Sect's control. If they could really attack the Black Sky Sect in the future, it would be very beneficial to have Taoist Master Ferocious Tiger and the others to take control of the entire Black Sky Sect's area.
Half a month after Daoist Priest Fierce Tiger arrived at the Sea Exploring Sect, Zhao Hai finally received news that the Evil Ghost Sect's coalition army was heading towards the Sea Exploring Sect's area. This time, the Evil Ghost Sect's coalition army had reached about 300,000 people.
After receiving the news, Zhao Hai immediately issued an all-out attack. This time, the entire Sea Exploring Sect was mobilized. Their main goal was to completely eliminate the Evil Ghost Sect's army. Zhao Hai's army was currently in the Sea Exploring Sect.
Although the Evil Ghost Sect's coalition army was now rushing towards the Sea Exploring Sect, their speed wasn't fast. It seemed like they weren't in a hurry at all. It took them two days to reach the border between the Mysterious Sky Sect and the Sea Exploring Sect. When they arrived at the border, they didn't enter the Sea Exploring Sect. Instead, they just stationed themselves at the border of the Sea Exploring Sect. This made Zhao Hai a little confused, he didn't know what they were trying to do.
However, Zhao Hai had already decided not to fight them head-on. Naturally, he didn't care about what they were going to do. He just needed to be prepared. Now, the entire buffer zone had turned into a huge illusory formation. As long as those people dared to enter the buffer zone, Zhao Hai wouldn't let them have an easy time.
The situation in the South Sea wasn't very good. The coalition army was retreating bit by bit. Zhao Hai couldn't provide them with more support. After all, they were also pressuring the border. There was no way for them to send more troops to rescue them.
However, Zhao Hai and the others didn't retreat from the three islands in the South Sea. On the contrary, the defenses of the three islands were very good. They were like three nails that were firmly nailed into the South Sea. The Evil Ghost Sect's army attacked the three islands several times, but to no avail. In the end, they had no choice but to give up on the three islands. This was because the three islands were in the periphery of the South Sea. Even if the Evil Ghost Sect ignored them, they wouldn't pose too much of a threat to the Evil Ghost Sect. Because of this, the Evil Ghost Sect simply ignored the three islands in the South Sea and focused on attacking the other islands.
