According to the plan, the Sea King sent an envoy to invite the leaders of the various forces in the nearby seas.
Although the leaders of the various forces in the Devouring Sea Region felt helpless, they still went to the main island of the Devouring Division, Bone Island, at the appointed time.
If they wanted to continue developing in this sea region, they had to give face to the Netherworld Trade Association.
In the eyes of the leaders of the various forces, the Calamity Race's unscrupulous plundering behavior was a sign that their future was bleak.
If they wanted to develop further, they still had to give face to the Netherworld Trade Association.
Although the Devouring Division was in a miserable state, they still represented the Netherworld Headquarters. Hence, they had to give face.
Even though they knew that it wasn't safe to go to Bone Island at this stage.
On this day, the leaders of the various forces still brought their personal guards to Bone Island and entered the barrier at the center of the island.
At this time, the Sea King had been waiting for a long time.
In the face of the arrival of the leaders of the major forces, the Sea King immediately received them and brought them into the conference room in the central tower.
After the leaders of the various forces were seated, the Sea King didn't beat around the bush.
He looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, the Chamber of Commerce has encountered a major crisis. I need your help!"
The leaders of the various forces didn't speak after hearing this. They just waited quietly for the Sea King to continue.
Actually, before coming here, they had already guessed the purpose of the Sea King's invitation.
After all, the Calamity Race had attacked Bone Island multiple times. They had sent spies to observe the situation of the Devouring Division.
Moreover, they weren't against joining forces to fight the Calamity Race.
However, what they wanted to know now was how the Sea King would arrange this battle if they agreed.
Who would be the main force? This was a very realistic question.
After all, the one who put in more effort was the fool. Everyone was well aware of this fact.
At this time, the Sea King spoke.
"I think everyone here has already guessed the purpose of my invitation. I will get straight to the point. This time, I want everyone to join forces to fight the Calamity Race. What do you think?"
At this time, a scar-faced man looked at the Sea King and said, "The Forbidden Fish Race is willing to join. The Calamity Race plundered two of our spiritual mines and stole a pond full of spiritual fish that we painstakingly cultivated. They deserve to be killed!"
When he mentioned the Calamity Race, his eyes flashed with anger. It was obvious that he had been exploited by the players recently.
The Sea King nodded solemnly and turned his attention to the leaders of the other forces.
"The Cyan Demon Race agrees with the idea of joining forces to eradicate the Calamity Race. However, I want to know how you will arrange this battle and who will be the main force!" The one who spoke was a green-skinned humanoid creature. The biggest difference between him and a human was that he had a third eye on his forehead.
His question was what was on everyone's mind. They immediately looked at the Sea King and waited for his reply.
Upon hearing this, the Sea King snickered in his heart. However, his expression turned grave as he frowned slightly.
"Do you have any good suggestions?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent once more.
In fact, their suggestion was very simple. As long as it wasn't their own force that acted as the main force, anyone was fine!
Of course, these words were naturally not suitable to be said out loud.
Faced with the silent crowd, the Sea King finally spoke.
"Actually, I've already considered this point, so I have a suggestion. What do you think?"
Hearing that the Sea King had a solution to this matter, everyone was curious. They did not understand what the Sea King had in mind.
Under everyone's curious gazes, the Sea King took out a blueprint and said, "I obtained this formation by chance.
It's called the Heaven and Earth Sealing Formation. It's one of the thirty-two killing formations from ancient times. As long as the formation is successfully set up, it can move according to the person who set it up. When the time comes, it will envelop the Calamity Race, and they will definitely die! " As he spoke, the Sea King spread out the formation blueprint and handed it to Hei Sui, who was standing beside him. He then asked Hei Sui to bring it to the leaders of the major forces and show it to them one by one.
Upon hearing this, the leaders of the major forces were curious. When Hei Sui approached them, they immediately started to carefully observe the complicated formation drawing on the formation blueprint.
After Hei Sui walked one round in front of the major forces and showed them the formation blueprint, the Sea King immediately spoke.
"Has anyone heard of this formation?"
"I've heard a little about it. It's said that this formation is extremely powerful, and there are even rumors of it being able to kill gods. However, I don't know if it's true or not!"
"I've also heard of it, but I've never seen the formation blueprint. If this blueprint is real, then it will definitely be able to kill the Calamity Race!"
At this moment, two of the leaders of the major forces spoke up with serious expressions.
Upon hearing this, the Sea King knew that his plan had taken another step forward.
This "Heaven and Earth Sealing and Killing Formation" was naturally prepared by him to trick the leaders of the major forces.
However, this formation wasn't fake. It really existed, and the creator of this formation was none other than the Shadow King.
After obtaining his inherited memories, the Sea King was naturally able to easily draw this formation blueprint.
It was obviously unrealistic to use a fake formation to deceive the leaders of the major forces.
After all, the leaders of the major forces were able to establish their own forces and stand tall until today. Apart from being powerful in terms of martial prowess, they were definitely very smart.
A fake formation blueprint would definitely be seen through.
Hence, the Sea King was using a method that was half-real and half-fake.
The real was the formation, and the fake was the consumption required to set up the formation!
When he thought of this, a smile appeared on the Sea King's face.
"Since that's the case, I won't hide it from everyone. This time, I hope that everyone can help me set up this formation. Each of you will contribute a sum of spiritual materials. This method can also solve the problem of who will be the main force. As long as the formation is successfully set up, the Calamity Race will definitely be destroyed. There's no need for everyone to contribute any extra effort! "
When they heard this, everyone was shocked.
They originally thought that the Sea King wanted to unite everyone's strength to fight the Calamity Race head-on. They didn't expect that he actually wanted to use a formation to exterminate the Player Family.
However, when they heard that spiritual materials were needed, the leaders of the major forces were extremely unwilling. At the same time, they cursed in their hearts.
In their opinion, the wealthiest force was the Netherworld Chamber of Commerce.
Even though the Devouring Branch had to hand over resources to the headquarters once every five years, the resources in the Resource Warehouse were not something that they could hope to obtain. Now that they were asking for spiritual materials, what was the point?
However, no one wanted to stand out and oppose the Sea King's decision. Hence, no one said anything.
The Sea King looked at everyone and said, "I know what everyone is thinking. You think that my Chamber of Commerce has plenty of resources, so there's no need for me to ask for your help, right?"
At least you know what you're thinking!
This was the thought that emerged in everyone's minds at the same time.
At this moment, the Sea King suddenly sighed. With a worried expression, he said,
"To be honest, I'm sure you all know that the Devouring Branch has to hand over resources to the headquarters once every five years. The deadline for handing over resources this time is approaching. The problem that my Chamber of Commerce is facing now is that our resources haven't reached the quota set by the headquarters. We're already going to be punished by the headquarters. If we spend too much, we'll have to face the headquarters' wrath. I have no choice! "As he spoke, a hint of sadness appeared on the Sea King's face.
When they heard this, the leaders of the major forces looked at each other.
They were indeed aware of this, but they didn't expect the Devouring Branch to be in such a pitiful state.
However, they finally understood why the rich and overbearing Devouring Branch needed them to donate resources to set up a formation.
"How about this? The Chamber of Commerce will provide 30% of the formation's resources. The remaining 70% will be shared equally by everyone!" Seeing that the leaders of the major forces had understood his intentions, the Sea King struck while the iron was hot.
"The Forbidden Cloud Race agrees. The Calamity Race has disrupted the order of the Devouring Branch. Everyone is responsible for eradicating them!"
The Sea King nodded in his heart as he looked at the leader of the major forces who obviously hated the Player Family to the core.
He liked people who were so foolish. They were willing to volunteer even after being betrayed!
With someone taking the lead, the rest would be easy.
As the Sea King swept his gaze across them, the leaders of the major forces had no choice but to nod in agreement even though they were dissatisfied.
After all, offending the Netherworld Chamber of Commerce would be detrimental to their future development.
When all the leaders of the major forces had agreed, the Sea King gave Hei Sui a look. Hei Sui understood and took out a stack of lists from his body. He distributed them to the leaders of the major forces.
Filled with curiosity, the leaders of the major forces took the lists and scanned through the contents.
When they saw the contents of the list clearly, the expressions of the leaders of the major forces changed abruptly.
This was daylight robbery!
Looking at the densely packed contents of the list and the amount of materials noted at the back, the leaders of the major forces were on the verge of exploding.
Although they knew that setting up the Heaven and Earth Sealing Formation, one of the Thirty-Two Killing Formations, would require a large amount of spiritual materials, they didn't expect it to require so many.
This wasn't just asking for resources. It was practically asking for their wealth!
"Ahem, I know that we might need a lot of resources, but I hope that everyone can understand. This time, we should work together to overcome this crisis!"
When the leaders of the major forces heard this, their expressions turned even uglier.
If it wasn't for the Sea King's special identity, they would have definitely taught him a lesson.
"Everyone, don't worry. The spiritual materials used to set up the formation won't go through my hands. When the formation is completed, you can just personally bring them into the formation. I won't covet the spiritual materials in your hands!"
Hearing this, everyone's faces were still pale, but they felt much better.
Because of the Sea King's previous words, they couldn't help but guess if the Sea King was trying to take the opportunity to make money. After all, they weren't there to set up the formation. Who knew how many spiritual materials were used?
In particular, the amount of spiritual materials used to set up the formation was obviously a little excessive. It was too unrealistic.
However, when the Sea King said that they would personally put the spiritual materials into the formation, they at least felt a little comforted.
Even if they still felt that the amount of spiritual materials used was too much, at least they were used to set up the formation instead of being exploited like fools.
At this moment, the Sea King stood up and looked at everyone.
"Then it's decided. Everyone, go back and prepare the spiritual materials as soon as possible. I should start setting up the formation!"
When the leaders of the various forces heard this, they stood up one after another, and the meeting ended.
However, the leaders of the various forces were really helpless about this outcome. They cursed and cursed on the way back. They were really unhappy.
However, they had no other choice but to accept it.
…
Five days later.
Near the Devouring Sea's Miracle Island, a huge formation quickly swept over from afar and quickly enveloped the sea around Miracle Island.
This was also the main base of the players in the Devouring Sea.
After the formation enveloped Miracle Island, the Sea King and the leaders of the various forces arrived one after another with a large amount of spiritual materials.
This time, they were going to use the formation to kill the Calamity Clan.
After all the leaders of the forces had arrived, the Sea King floated into the air. He then looked down and said,
He said, "Leaders, I've finished setting up the formation. Next, I'll need a large amount of spiritual materials to power it. You can throw the spiritual materials into the formation, and I'll catalyze them into the formation's power source!"
When the leaders heard this, they couldn't help but look back at the large amount of spiritual materials they had brought.
Although their hearts ached, they could only endure the pain and throw the spiritual materials into the formation.
…
At this moment, inside the island, the players were obediently waiting to be fed.
