Now that Zhao Hai had returned, the situation was naturally different. Now, the entire defensive line of the Chicken Heart Ridge was in a completely different state. The might of the killing array was fully displayed. The people of the Sacred Gate thought that they would be fine if they hid in the array they built. However, their array was built right beside the Scouring Sea Sect's array. In order to deal with the Scouring Sea Sect's array, a part of their array had already penetrated deep into the Scouring Sea Sect's array. This happened to be within the attack range of the Scouring Sea Sect's killing array. The stone giants, wind spirits, ice dragons, and fire phoenixes naturally wouldn't be polite and directly charged towards the Sacred Gate's array.
However, the array of the Sacred Gate wasn't that easy to deal with. After so many years of development, the array of the Sacred Gate had its own unique characteristics. Their array was called the Sacred Beast Array. When they set up the array, there would be a beast soul in the center of the array at the eye of the array.
The beast soul was a special product of the Sacred Gate. Although the disciples of the Sacred Gate were demonic cultivators, they wouldn't be polite to other demonic beasts that hadn't developed spiritual wisdom. They would kill them as they pleased. Many of the demonic beasts that were killed weren't weak and would leave behind beast souls. The people of the Sacred Gate would gather these beast souls and make them into a beast soul sphere. When they were arranging the array, they would place the beast soul sphere at the center of the array. This way, there would be beast souls in the array. These beast souls would also be supported by the array's energy and turn into energy beasts to guard the array. Therefore, the Sacred Gate's array was very difficult to deal with.
Therefore, when the stone giants, wind spirits, ice dragons, and fire phoenixes rushed into the Sacred Gate's array, the energy beasts immediately appeared and began to attack them.
These energy beasts were supported by the array's energy and were very powerful. Therefore, both sides were entangled. For a while, the array spirits of the Scouring Sea Sect couldn't do anything.
But soon, the situation changed. The ground of the Sacred Gate's array began to become more and more moist. The disciples of the Sacred Gate felt that they would slowly sink if they stood on the ground.
Upon seeing this, the disciples of the Sacred Gate immediately knew that they had been tricked. They immediately shouted, "Get out of there quickly! Quicksand Technique!"
The Quicksand Technique was a very common technique. Some people even believed that the Quicksand Technique was useless because once a cultivator's strength reached the Spirit Refining Realm, they would be able to fly in the sky. Once a person flew, even if the Quicksand Technique was too strong, it wouldn't have any effect on the cultivator. Therefore, the Quicksand Technique was considered the lowest level technique and could only be used to deal with ordinary low-level disciples.
If it was somewhere else, the Saint Gate's people wouldn't care about the Quicksand Technique at all. They were all elites of the Saint Gate, and all of them could fly. Why would they be afraid of the Quicksand Technique?
But now, they were at the Heart Ridge's defensive line. There was a forbidden flying formation in the Heart Ridge's defensive line. Although they were now outside the range of the Heart Ridge's array, they were still within the attack range of the killing formation. They still couldn't fly, so they could only fight on the ground.
But at this moment, a large-scale Quicksand Technique suddenly appeared. This was really something that could take their lives. Therefore, the disciples of the Holy Gate were very alarmed. What made them even more alarmed was that when the Quicksand Technique appeared, the array they had built immediately became useless. This was because the array symbols of the array had all changed their positions because of the Quicksand Technique. Naturally, the array became useless.
If the Quicksand Technique was used to deal with ordinary arrays, then it would be useless. This was because the range of the Quicksand Technique wouldn't be too big. Moreover, the small range of the Quicksand Technique was useless against arrays. After the array was formed, it would form its own force field. And this force field could block the attack of spells.
But this time, the Saint Gate was facing the Quicksand Technique created by the Sea Exploring Sect's killing formation. This was the ability of the killing formation. Therefore, the range of the Quicksand Technique was very large, and its attack power was also very strong. It broke the array in an instant.
Everyone knew that the Quicksand Technique wasn't something that would be fine if you don't move. If you don't move, you would slowly sink into the Quicksand. And the more you struggle, the faster you would sink. It was as if someone was pulling you.
And now, the disciples of the Sacred Gate were like this. Many of them were trapped in the Quicksand Technique. They were still struggling, but the more they struggled, the faster they sank. It seemed that they were in danger.
When the Vermillion Bird Elder saw this situation, his face couldn't help but change. His figure moved and directly flew up. Although the Forbidden Space Array had an effect on him, the effect wasn't very big. He could still fly. Then, the Vermillion Bird Elder opened his mouth and a red light shot out from his mouth. The red light flashed and hit the edge of the array.
With a loud bang, a huge hole appeared on the ground. It was obvious that the Vermillion Bird Elder had used all of his strength this time. It seemed that he had even used the power of the law.
But after the Vermillion Bird Elder's attack, the Quicksand Technique on the ground slowly stopped and turned into ordinary ground. Although many of the Sacred Gate's disciples were still buried inside, as long as it wasn't Quicksand, it wasn't a problem for them to come out. So they just moved their bodies and directly jumped out of the ground.
The Vermillion Bird Elder immediately shouted, "Everyone, listen up. Leave this place, quickly!"
The Sacred Gate's disciples didn't say anything. They turned around and ran. Their speed was very fast, but behind them, there were countless stone giants, wind spirits, ice dragons, and fire phoenixes chasing after them.
These stone giants, wind spirits, ice dragons, and fire phoenixes were the array spirits of the killing array. However, they weren't the main scouting array spirits, but the attacking array spirits. Therefore, they wouldn't be affected by the array. Even when the Sacred Gate's array turned into Quicksand, it didn't affect them at all. The Sacred Gate's disciples sank into the Quicksand one by one. On the other hand, the stone giants, who were much heavier than them, were completely unaffected. They moved freely on the Quicksand without being affected at all.
It was precisely because of this that the Vermillion Bird Elder immediately understood that the changes in their array must be related to the Scouring Sea Sect's array. Therefore, he directly went to the boundary between their array and the Scouring Sea Sect's array. He used the power of law to cut off the power transmitted by the Scouring Sea Sect's array. Therefore, the ground there immediately recovered.
The array spirit of the Scouring Sea Sect's array chased the Sacred Gate's disciples for two hundred miles before retreating. The Scouring Sea Sect's array also returned to normal. However, the Sacred Gate's disciples didn't dare to underestimate the Scouring Sea Sect's array anymore. This was because the array spirit of this array actually chased them for two hundred miles. This was really too shocking.
The Vermillion Bird Elder descended from the sky with an ugly expression. He thought that he had found a way to deal with the Scouring Sea Sect's array, but now, he discovered that it was simply impossible. The Scouring Sea Sect's array was too overbearing. He believed that there were still many changes to this array that hadn't been revealed yet. If it was really used, it would be even more terrifying. But even so, they had no way to deal with it. This really made him speechless.
Elder Vermilion Bird stood there with an ugly expression on his face. At this time, an elder from the Holy Gate walked to Elder Vermilion Bird's side and bowed to him. "Elder, most of the disciples have retreated. However, there are some casualties this time. What do you think we should do next?"
The Vermillion Bird Elder thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Let everyone have a good rest. We will prepare for a night attack tonight. Oh right, let everyone retreat a little. If we stop here, the Scouring Sea Sect's people will definitely think that we will attack again. They will be on guard. If we retreat, they will think that we won't attack again and won't pay attention to us. When the time comes, our night attack will have an unexpected effect."
That elder responded and immediately went to command the troops. The people who came with the Vermilion Bird Elder were indeed the elites of the Saint Gate. Although they had just experienced a defeat, they quickly regrouped and retreated, showing their good quality. They were indeed elites.
The Vermillion Bird Elder looked at the direction of the Heart Ridge and coldly snorted before retreating. The Heart Ridge's defensive line finally returned to its calm state.
After the Vermillion Bird Elder and the others retreated, Zhao Hai flew out of the Heart Ridge's defensive line. Then he began to command the disciples to replace the array talismans that were destroyed by the Vermillion Bird Elder and the others during the day.
After replacing the array talismans, Zhao Hai returned to the Heart Ridge's defensive line. Then he called Tie Shi and the others to his study room. Now, there were a lot of people guarding the Heart Ridge's defensive line. There were about 100 million people. Although this wasn't a lot for the expanded defensive line, it was enough to guard the Heart Ridge's defensive line.
Zhao Hai looked at Tie Shi and the others and said, "In the future, I will be overseeing the Heart Ridge's defensive line. Therefore, everyone doesn't need to worry about the safety of the Heart Ridge's defensive line."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai's words, the expressions of Tie Shi and the others changed. Then everyone stood up and saluted Zhao Hai, "We are guilty. Please punish us, Sect Master." Tie Shi and the others were really afraid. They thought that Zhao Hai was dissatisfied with their performance, which was why he wanted to stay behind to oversee the defensive line. In their opinion, the battle in the Wolf Ivory Mountain was more important. If they held Zhao Hai back because of them, they would have committed a great sin.
Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, "Alright, I don't blame you. This time, the Holy Gate's people are different. It's the Vermillion Bird Elder, one of the four Holy Gate's Holy Gate's Four Holy Elders. Moreover, all of them are elites. Therefore, I have to stay behind to oversee the defensive line. As for the Wolf Ivory Mountain, I'll leave it to Wenhai and Chunming.
Everyone sat down. Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Everyone might not be familiar with the situation in the Wolf Ivory Mountain, so I'll explain it to everyone. When we arrived there today, we attacked the Lone Wolf Peak according to our original plan. The attack pattern was also discussed by us. After the energy cannons attack, we would send our disciples to attack. Everything went according to plan, but the effect wasn't very good. The Holy Gate's people dug an underground base on the Lone Wolf Peak and hid inside, waiting for our energy cannons to attack. Afterwards, they would rush out and deal with us. Moreover, their moves were exchanging injuries for injuries, exchanging lives for lives. Our disciples also suffered a lot of losses. Later on, I asked Sheng Feng to provide support and used a spell to destroy their underground base. Only then did we eliminate them and occupy the Lone Wolf Peak. From this point, it can be seen that the Holy Gate is really going all out against us this time. They want to use this method of exchanging lives with us until we can't take it anymore and defeat us."
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Tie Shi and the others' expressions changed. If the Holy Gate continues to waste time with them, then they wouldn't be able to afford it. If their casualties were too high, then it would be very troublesome. Tie Shi and the others' expressions changed.
Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "But before I came back, I already found a way to deal with the Holy Gate's tactics. Therefore, you don't have to worry. We just need to defend this place."
Everyone responded in unison. However, looking at their expressions, one could see that they were still worried. Zhao Hai looked at their expressions and smiled faintly. Then he said, "Alright, everyone go and rest. Although we didn't use our disciples to fight during the day, everyone has been nervous for the entire day. Go and rest well." Everyone nodded before they turned around and left. They had been nervous for the entire day, so they really needed to rest.
After Tie Shi and the others left, Zhao Hai turned his head to Che Rong and said, "Little Rong, you should take a rest as well. If I'm not wrong, then the Holy Gate wouldn't retreat. They will certainly attack us. This time, they came to fight us, so how could they retreat so easily?" Che Rong nodded and said, "Alright, alright. I'll give it to you.
Che Rong nodded before he turned around and left. He also knew that there was nothing to worry about in the Chicken Heart Ridge. Therefore, he felt relieved and went to rest.
On the other hand, Zhao Hai didn't immediately rest. He first contacted Laura and the others. Then he asked about the situation in the Sword Spirit Realm. Everything in the Sword Spirit Realm was normal, nothing had happened. This made Zhao Hai feel relieved.
After chatting with Laura and the others for a while, Zhao Hai sent a letter to the Falcon. He told the Falcon that they had already begun to attack the Wolf Fang Mountain Range. However, because of the change in the situation, the Falcon wasn't allowed to participate in the attack. This was to ensure their safety.
However, what Zhao Hai didn't expect was the Falcon's reply. He said that they weren't afraid of danger and asked Zhao Hai to hurry up and have them join the battle. In the end, Zhao Hai had no other choice but to tell the Falcon about the current location of the Sea Exploring Sect. Then he told the Falcon to contact Wen Wenhai and the others.
After the Falcon's reply, Zhao Hai immediately sent a letter to Wen Wenhai, telling him to pay attention to the Falcon and the others. He also told Wen Wenhai that the Falcon and the others were part of the Sea Exploring Sect. However, they weren't part of the Sea Exploring Sect yet. Because of this, Wen Wenhai needed to pay attention to the way he used them. He didn't want the other party to misunderstand the Sea Exploring Sect.
After dealing with these matters, Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his room to rest.
