Chapter 912 – They Should've Thought About It Long Ago!

Boom! A heaven-shaking sound was heard, shaking the entire Central City. The people who were awoken by the alarm and had come out saw their holy place being penetrated by a golden light.

These people didn't know what just happened, they were dumbfounded for some time. What was going on? Was the Deity punis.h.i.+ng them?

While they were puzzled, that golden light made a turn-around, heading towards Connecting Heaven Palace once more. This time, people were able to see it clearly. It was actually a huge golden s.h.i.+p!

What made the Divines dumbfounded was that this s.h.i.+p was like a child that had found a new fun toy to play with. It hit the Connecting Heaven Palace again and again. It started at the top of the mountain and gradually went down. Their prided mountain was being smashed to pieces.

Every Divine had lost the ability to think. They didn't know what was happening. They didn't know what the s.h.i.+p was doing and why was it attacking the palace.

At this moment, the soldiers of Central City finally responded. All Divine soldiers took their weapons and went towards the palace with the quickest speed they could muster.

These soldiers knew what the destruction of the Connecting Heaven palace meant. Losing the palace meant losing the dignity of the Central Continent. It would be a huge blow to the Central Continent.

At this point, the Divine soldiers had gone mad. They all rushed towards the palace and tear apart the one who dared to make an attack.

However, the soldiers had no opportunity to do so. Connecting Heaven Palace was not a natural mountain, it was artificially made. In terms of strength, it was still inferior to ones made by nature. After being hit by the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p multiple times, the mountain finally couldn't withstand it and just collapsed.

But Zhao Hai wasn't finished, he didn't intend to let anybody go. He commanded the s.h.i.+p's cannons to shoot towards the palace's direction. All the Divines who flew out of the mountain were killed on the spot.

This time, Zhao Hai can finally see how the improved magic cannons performed. If the previous cannons of the s.h.i.+p were to be ordinary magic cannons of the Ark Continent, then the improved cannons were like the huge cannons of the Divine Race.

The h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p's cannons weren't just a bit more powerful. In fact, in the s.h.i.+p's recent upgrade, the cannons received the greatest improvement in power.

First, the cannons' materials have changed. The magic cannons that Zhao Hai used were made by iron, making them useless after being used for some time. However, the magic cannons of the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p were now made from specially synthesized materials. Its strength had increased by a lot. Even if they were used for a long time, they would still remain undamaged.

Second, the raw power used by the cannons. Zhao Hai's cannons used magic crystals as a power source. On the other hand, the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p's cannons used the yin-yang pond as a power source. The energy contained inside the yin-yang pond was much greater compared to the energy inside magic crystals. With this, it was natural for the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p's cannons to be more powerful.

And third, the magic armors that Zhao Hai gained helped a lot. Although Zhao Hai didn't have the time to study the magic armors and just handed them over to Karen, the magic formations on those armors were still used to improve the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p. The magic formations on the magic armors helped the cannons to increase their output. Among the three improvements, this one was the one that benefitted the cannons the most.

At this time, Zhao Hai was confident that as long as the cannons. .h.i.t a G.o.d-rank expert, then that expert would certainly die. If ten magic cannons combine their power, then even Supreme Elders in their ultimate weapons wouldn't be able to block them.

Zhao Hai had the s.h.i.+p circle around the rubble that was Connecting Heaven Palace. Every Divine they discovered were immediately attacked and killed. Even if there weren't any people in sight, the cannons were still firing. Everything that was the Connecting Heaven Palace was destroyed, nothing good was left.

This process might look like it took a long time, but everything had just happened in less than an hour. In this one hour, Central City's soldiers had slowly encircled the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p.

After Zhao Hai saw that the Connecting Heaven Palace was almost destroyed, he decided to leave. He turned the s.h.i.+p and went straight to the Divine Race Soldiers.

When the troops saw that Zhao Hai was heading towards them, instead of retreating, they actually proceeded to clash. They took up their arms and charged towards the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p. They were like warriors carrying swords and spears charging towards an enemy tank.

Zhao Hai didn't care about these soldiers. He wasn't planning to fight with these people as he just drove the s.h.i.+p through them. The golden streak of light vanished from the horizon soon after, leaving the maddened soldiers with nothing to do.

At this time, the commoners started to respond. They wept and wailed as they ran towards the Connecting Heaven palace. The palace was too important for the people living in the Central Continent. This was their source of energy, their pride. But under their gazes, it was mercilessly destroyed. Nothing noteworthy was left.

The Divines began to congregate towards the place where the palace was located. The majestic structure was destroyed, not even a tile was left. All of the Divines in the capital cried. There were even some soldiers who couldn't bear the thorn in their hearts and committed suicide.

The symbol of the Central Continent, the pride of the Central Continent, the strength of the Central Continent, the Connecting Heaven Palace has been destroyed. And the culprit was Zhao Hai!

After Zhao Hai's a.s.sault on Central City, he got rid of the pursuers before returning to Divine Gift River. Then he had Bubble surround the s.h.i.+p and sank to the bottom of the river without coming out.

The duration of the a.s.sault was too short. It only took an hour or so from beginning to end. To be honest, Bingya and the others weren't expecting Zhao Hai to use this method to deal with the palace. Before they could even move their hands, Zhao Hai had already made an attack and the battle was over.

Actually, it wasn't only Bingya's team, Laura and the others weren't expecting Zhao Hai to do this as well.

In fact, Zhao Hai didn't think that this was what he would be doing too. After he heard Bingya mention the Connecting Heaven Palace, he was suddenly struck by an idea.

Connecting Heaven Palace was a symbol of the Central Continent's strength. If it was destroyed by him, then it would certainly be a huge blow to the Central Continent. Even if Elder Star was quite the schemer, he would still be compelled to return to the Central Continent to handle this matter. Otherwise, the Central Continent would be sunk into chaos.

The Divines were proud, and this was even more true for those who lived in the Central Continent. With how resounding the slap that Zhao Hai gave them, n.o.body could blame the Central Divines if they were to go insane.

In this case, if Elder Star didn't make a move, then the Central Divines would meet their end. Because of this, Zhao Hai decided to demolish the Connecting Heaven Palace. With this, Elder Star should be forced to return to the Central Continent.

After Bubble sank to the bottom of the river, Zhao Hai finally gave out a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that the Divines would use a special weapon to deal with him. But now, it seems like his worries were unnecessary.

Bingya's team, as well as Laura and the others stood by Zhao Hai's side. When Laura saw Zhao Hai sighing in relief, she smiled and said, "Brother Hai, were you really that nervous?"

Zhao Hai turned to Laura and smiled bitterly, "Really nervous. It's natural, we're in the Central Continent, a place known as the most formidable in the Divine Realm. Moreover, we are attacking its capital city. How can I not be nervous? However, it's great that they weren't as formidable as we thought."

Bingya looked at Zhao Hai, his eyes shone as he said, "Mister, did you know how important the Connecting Heaven Palace was? Not only in the Central Continent, but the entire Divine Race looked up to it. Connecting Heaven Palace was the Divine Race's symbol of authority and strength. Now that Mister destroyed it, then it meant that Mister has announced his eternal enmity against the Divine Race."

When he heard Bingya, Zhao Hai couldn't help but smile bitterly, "When the Divines attacked the Ark Continent, they should've known that our enmity is irreconcilable. This is just the start!"

Bingya didn't know what to say. Zhao Hai surely had the strength to back up his words. If those words came out from another person's mouth, then people would just laugh at them. Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Bingya suddenly felt that the Divine Realm might have no Divines left in the future!

After seeing that Bingya had stayed silent, Zhao Hai opened his mouth and said, "Bingya, tell your people about what just happened. Remind them to be extra alert. After knowing what we just did, it's possible that all the Divines would go crazy. If they couldn't find us, then they might s.h.i.+ft their rage to your clans. Have your people tread carefully."

Bingya's expression changed, then he made a nod. He knew that Zhao Hai was telling the truth. After knowing this information, the Divines would surely go mad. They will rush to the Central Continent to look for Zhao Hai. And if they failed to find Zhao Hai, then they would s.h.i.+ft their attention to the foreign races, given that Zhao Hai was allied with them. The foreign races might have a bad time coming.

Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, "Alright, go take a rest. Have your people help us in paying attention to the Divine Race's response. The more details, the better."

Bingya nodded before returning to his room along with Ryder and Yehta. They immediately relayed the information to their clans, telling them about the event that happened in the Central Continent. They instructed their people to be ready at all times.

After seeing Bingya and the others leaving, Zhao Hai turned to Laura and said, "Inform Fei'er about this as well. Tell them that they might suffer for a while."

When Laura heard Zhao Hai say this, she paused for a moment before her eyes shone, "Brother Hai, are you ready to make a move on the three clans?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "It's about time, isn't it?"

Chapter 913 – Elder Star's Plan

Elder Star quietly stood on the balcony of his room. He was currently in the Leo Continent's Imperial Palace.

The structure of this Palace was very grand, but compared to Connecting Heaven Palace, it still had some shortcomings. However, Elder Star didn't care. Although he lived in Connecting Heaven Palace, he settled on a small side residence. He didn't involve himself in politics, he just stayed in cultivating. He was waiting to ascend one day.

At this time, if it wasn't for Jie Yu's letter asking for his help, he wouldn't have come out. He knew that he was required this time.

Zhao Hai's strength was something that surpa.s.sed his imagination. In the past, Elder Star wouldn't have even thought that a person would be able to escape an attack made by five Supreme Elders. They made ample preparations for the ambush. The enemy was even captured inside Sealing Star Disk. However, the enemy was actually able to come out! Moreover, after withdrawing, he even managed to destroy their base.

This person was too dangerous! After clas.h.i.+ng with Zhao Hai, Elder Star understood how terrible Zhao Hai was. Elder Star believes that if Zhao Hai keeps being in the Divine Realm, then the entire Divine Race would be endangered.

Not only was Zhao Hai strong, he was also vicious and merciless.

The people of the Taurus Continent has been slaughtered by Zhao Hai. It was startling even for Elder Star.

Naturally, Elder Star knew about what the Taurus Divines did back in the Ark Continent. However, Elder Star was a member of the Divine Race, and he had the pride of a Divine. In his view, the people of the Ark Continent were lesser beings. It didn't matter how many of those people were slaughtered. It was just like how people from the Ark Continent didn't treat slaves as equals. The Divines didn't look at the people from the Ark Continent as beings that were on the same level.

But after Zhao Hai's slaughter, Elder Star began to feel a sense of dread.

If Zhao Hai wasn't dealt with soon, then more Divines would fall.

There were two reasons why Elder Star decided to eliminate Zhao Hai. First was the rebellion of the Thunder Clan, Barbarians, and the Winged Pegasus , and second was the alliance with the foreign races.

The rebellion of the three clans had caused the large scale rebellion of the Divine Realm's va.s.sal races. This effect can still be felt up to this time. There were still people from the other continents that were yet to deal with their va.s.sal races. The Divines were caught unprepared.

Next was the alliance with the foreign races. The battle between the foreign races and the Divine race had lasted for tens of thousands of years. Their hatred for each other has been engraved on their bones. In this case, if Zhao Hai cooperates with the foreign races and succeed, then what would happen to the Divines?

Because of these reasons, Elder Star has to cooperate with the other Supreme Elders in order to eliminate Zhao Hai.

Just like what Zhao Hai guessed, Elder Star and the others' deployment of the troops was a ploy. Zhao Hai had fought with Gold Ben before and the Taurus Divines also clashed with Zhao Hai back in the Ark Continent. Therefore, they already have some sort of information about Zhao Hai. They had discovered that Zhao Hai was a sly person. If the Divines were to really attack the foreign races, then Zhao Hai definitely wouldn't help. Instead, Zhao Hai would just go to the Divine Race continents and cause trouble. And when the Divines retreat, they would also need to watch for their backs.

Because of this, Elder Star needed to make advance preparations. After studying Zhao Hai, he found out that Zhao Hai was a person who didn't like taking risks. He would carefully plan things out before making the first step. Elder Star knew that Zhao Hai wouldn't support the Foreign Races if the Divines were to attack them. So Elder Star decided to speak his words back in the Taurus Continent. However, it can be said that it wasn't a planned act. Only Elder Star was pretending, the others weren't.

Elder Star only thought about this plan when he was on his way to the Taurus Continent so he didn't have time to discuss it with the others. Because of this, he could only act by himself. Only after they retreated from the Taurus Continent did he reveal his plan to the others.

Elder Star did all of these because he discovered that Zhao Hai seemed to be one step ahead of them at all times. Therefore, Elder Star suspected that Zhao Hai might have a method to monitor them.

This thought stemmed from what happened with the second supply transport. Although they wanted to deal with Zhao Hai, they still decided to change their course. Delivering the supplies was much more important than facing Zhao Hai.

However, even if they changed their route, Zhao Hai was still able to encounter them. If Zhao Hai didn't have means to monitor them, then this outcome wouldn't have happened.

Elder Star didn't know how Zhao Hai did it, but he still didn't dare to take it lightly. In the end, he chose a conservative approach and deceived everyone. It wouldn't be too late to discuss things when they return to their territory.

Therefore, Elder Star and the others only discussed after reaching the Leo Continent. The reason Elder Star dared to do his current plan was because he has a treasure in his hands.

Without this treasure, Elder Star's plan would've been impossible to accomplish. One can say that they were already on the path of defeat from the very beginning. Of the 13 Continents in the Divine Realm, three of them belonged to the foreign races while one has been conquered by Zhao Hai. This left nine continents for the Divine Race. And the Divines were also left with 9 Supreme Elders. The Scorpio Supreme Elder had already fallen into Zhao Hai's hands. This loss also informed Elder Star about Zhao Hai's strength.

1 or 2 Supreme Elders wouldn't be a threat to Zhao Hai. Instead, it would be a gift to him. Because of this, Elder Star decided that everyone would move as one. With the strength of 9 Supreme Elders, Zhao Hai would surely be destroyed.

However, an issue had arisen with this arrangement. With nine people going together, this meant that all of them could only stay in one continent. If Zhao Hai chose to attack a continent besides where the Supreme Elders were, then the Supreme Elders wouldn't be able to do anything.

In the end, when Elder Star presented his treasure, the other Supreme Elders began to feel relief. The treasure that Elder Star had was known as the Seven Star Heaven Lock.

This treasure was actually several formation disks. It looked like the Star Sealing Disk but has inferior offense. The Sealing Star Disk can injure the enemy while the Seven Star Heaven Lock can only trap them.

If one talks about killing the enemy, then the Sealing Star Disk was naturally very formidable. Moreover, with more Ultimate Weapons, the disk would become more powerful.

But if one wanted to seal a person, then the Sealing Star Disk was actually inferior to the Seven Star Heaven Lock. The Seven Star Heaven Lock was divided into eight formation disks; the seven stars and the core.

And these eight disks can be used separately. Even if they were used individually, as long as the Seven Star Heaven Lock formation was established, the effects would manifest. Moreover, its might wasn't low.

Elder Star took this set of formation disks and gave one to each continent. The continents would house these disks and as long as they use it to surround Zhao Hai for several days, then the Supreme Elders can rush over and deal with him.

The reason why Elder Star was confident that these disks can surround Zhao Hai was due to the testing that he did before. These formation disks have their own characteristics. Once one was trapped inside a Seven Star Heaven Lock formation, then one would be trapped inside for seven days. Elder Star had tried it before, no matter if it was a Supreme Elder or an ordinary person, one could only be trapped for seven days, and n.o.body was able to break the formation. If two formation disks were used, then the trap would last 14 days. If three, then 21 days, and so on. If one uses eight formation disks, then the victim would be trapped for 56 days. After 56 days, whether the victim was dead or alive, the formation would unravel. Only when the formation was set up once more could it be used again.

Elder Star used this formation one time to trap the three Foreign Race Supreme Elders for 56 days. That was the time where the foreign races suffered the heaviest loss. If not for Elder Star being unsure of eliminating the three Supreme Elders, then the foreign races would have surely been slaughtered.

Because of the Seven Star Heaven Lock, Elder Star was a.s.sured that they could deal with Zhao Hai. In his opinion, no matter which continent Zhao Hai attacked, he would still be surrounded and trapped. Seven days was enough for the Supreme Elders to travel to any continent and eliminate Zhao Hai.

And just to be sure, in addition to the true Seven Star Heaven Lock, Elder Star also made imitations of the treasure. However, these imitations weren't very useful. If these imitations were to trap Zhao Hai, then they would only last a short time.

However, a short time was a huge factor when it came to the battlefield. If Zhao Hai was trapped inside an imitation, then the one who held the true formation disk would be able to go to where Zhao Hai was and trap him. After that, Elder Star and the others would soon arrive to kill Zhao Hai.

This plan was very good. Naturally, there was a Seven Star Heaven Lock disk in the Central Continent. However, whether they be an ordinary Divine or Elder Star, n.o.body expected Zhao Hai to attack the Central Continent. This was because it was very far from where Zhao Hai was. Zhao Hai wanted to solve the attack on the foreign races, but attacking the Central Continent was the slowest method. Because of this, n.o.body expected Zhao Hai to target the Central Continent. Instead, he would choose a continent that was much closer to the Taurus Continent.

Besides these arrangements, Elder Star also informed all of the Fishmen to thoroughly monitor the seas. As soon as they spot Zhao Hai, they would immediately make a report.

The Fishman Race's news was the quickest in the Divine Realm. Therefore, Elder Star was confident in his plan to deal with Zhao Hai.

However, despite all of these, Elder Star still couldn't help but feel uneasy. Their army had already departed and had clashed with the foreign races. Yet there still weren't any news about Zhao Hai. This caused Elder Star to feel restless.

He reviewed his plan carefully once more and there shouldn't be any flaws. This allowed him to loosen up a bit.

At this time, the sound of rapid footsteps can be heard.

Chapter 914 – Maddened Divine Race

Naturally, Elder Star was able to hear those footsteps. Judging by the cadence on each step, it should be Gold Ben. Gold Ben was now a stray dog. His strength was inferior to Elder Star, and now he had become the Elder's faithful subordinate. This was because Gold Ben knew that if there was someone that can help him take revenge in the Divine Realm, then it would be Elder Star.

This didn't pertain to Elder Star's strength, instead it was because of his ident.i.ty. Elder Star was the Supreme Elder of the Central Continent, he was a Supreme Elder that held more power compared to the other Supreme Elders. Because of this, the Supreme Elders have him as their center. If Gold Ben wanted to have his revenge, then he can only depend on Elder Star to organize the other Supreme Elders. Only Elder Star had this ability.

Gold Ben was a decisive person. He was very willing to be Elder Star's subordinate in order to make Elder Star move.

Because of this, when Elder Star heard that it was Gold Ben, he went back to standing in the balcony. He thought that since Gold Ben has come, then Zhao Hai should have appeared.

Gold Ben entered the room. When he saw Elder Star just posing there, he didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. In the past, Gold Ben didn't know about Elder Star's temper since they didn't have much contact. But now, Gold Ben discovered that Elder Star wanted to make poses in order to highlight his extraordinary points. Elder Star was doing that same thing right now.

"I don't know if he can still make a pose when he hears this news." Gold Ben thought of this as he walked towards Elder Star.

Elder Star didn't wait for Gold Ben to open his mouth as he asked, "What happened? Did you find any traces of Zhao Hai?"

Gold Ben nodded and said, "Yes, Zhao Hai has appeared. He attacked the Central Continent and ruined the Connecting Heaven Palace. The mountain was knocked down by his s.h.i.+p. From what I had heard, n.o.body from the palace survived."

Elder Star just stood there and quietly listened. Seeing little reaction from Elder Star, Gold Ben actually started to admire him.

But at this moment, Elder Star turned around, fierce expression plastered on his face. He glared at Gold Ben and said, "What did you just say? Zhao Hai attacked what?"

Gold Ben couldn't help but scold his heart. He really thought that Elder Star had a good control over his emotions. As it turns out, he was just too stunned to respond.

Although he had unspoken criticisms, Gold Ben repeated his report. Although it was already his second time hearing this, Elder Star stood there, looking at Gold Ben. Then Elder Star muttered, "This, how can this be possible? Didn't the Connecting Heaven Palace have a Seven Star Heaven Lock disk? How can this happen?"

Gold Ben shook his head and said, "At present, we still don't know everything. But this matter has already been spread outside. We need to head to the Central Continent to have a look."

When Gold Ben said this, Elder Star looked at him and said, "Yes, you're right. We have to go and have a look." After that, Elder Star's figure disappeared. Gold Ben saw Elder Star flying out of the balcony and headed directly towards the Central Continent.

Gold Ben didn't immediately follow Elder Star. Instead, he quickly went to inform the others. The other Supreme Elders couldn't sit still too. Although Zhao Hai didn't attack their continents, Connecting Heaven Palace was the pride of the Divine Race. They couldn't just let Zhao Hai go after he destroyed it.

The news didn't only arrive at the Leo Continent. It didn't take long before the entire Divine Realm got wind of what happened. When the Divines heard this, they couldn't help but turn crazy.

Those who'd gone mad first were the citizens of the Central Continent. They couldn't believe it, someone actually dared to attack them. Moreover, under their gazes, their sacred palace was destroyed. This was without a doubt a slap on the face of the Central Continent. It would be strange if they didn't go insane.

However, the worse thing about this situation was the fact that the crazed residents of the Central Continent were left with no leader. The members of the Central Continent's Imperial family lived in the palace. Now that they had been eliminated, the Central Continent became a headless dragon. n.o.body had the authority to lead the angry mob of Central Divines. At the same time, their reason has already been burned by the anger that they felt.

A person's anger was a terrifying thing. This was especially true for people with great strength.

With the Central Continent in its current state, the first to lose their reason were the capital city's soldiers. They started to destroy everything around them and murder people. The entire capital city was soon plunged into chaos.

After that, the entire Central Continent turned insane. When evening neared, the Central Continent had long lost its peace.

Zhao Hai didn't expect the result to be this drastic. He just destroyed a structure in the Central Continent, yet the entire continent had gone to chaos.

Zhao Hai blankly stared at the monitor, dumbfounded at what was happening. Laura and the others had the same thought. This scene was far from their imagination.

After some time, Zhao Hai turned to Laura and forced a smile, "It seems like we've stirred a hornet's nest."

Laura smiled bitterly and said, "How can it turn into this? Can Brother Hai ask Bingya and the others?"

Zhao Hai smiled and shook his head, "There's no need to ask. Didn't Bingya already tell us the answer? The ruined palace seems to be really important for the Divines. Otherwise, the the Divines wouldn't have this much reaction. However, this result if good for us. If the Divines start to go mad at the Foreign Races, then wouldn't that be great? What do you think?" Laura smiled and said, "That is truly good news. But to be honest, this has been too cruel to the Divines."

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, "This situation isn't about us being cruel to them. But them being cruel to us. Alright, no matter what, if Elder Star is really planning to make a move, then I think he would arrive very soon."

Laura nodded and said, "I think Elder Star had also gone mad. He should already be heading here at the fastest speed. What do we do next?"

Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Us? How about we pay a visit to the Leo Continent? If they come to the Central Continent, then we'll go to the Leo Continent and make a mess there. The Leo Continent is also the best place to contact the foreign races."

Laura nodded, "That is a good idea. But did the Leo Continent make any preparations? What are we going to do about that?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Then wouldn't it be better if they were prepared? What do we need to fear? First we make a mess of the Leo Continent and then we see what kind of reaction the Divines would have." Laura frowned and said, "With this current situation, the Divines would surely attack the Foreign Races. Maybe they'll even attack the Thunder Clan and the others, or even eliminate the va.s.sal races."

Zhao Hai just smiled and said, "They will certainly make a move on the Thunder Clan and the others. They know that those three clans are our earliest allies. If those three clans were to be in trouble, we certainly couldn't just ignore it. Moreover, compared to the foreign races, the three clans are much easier to deal with."

Laura stared, then she nodded. But Lizzy frowned as she said, "If I'm a Divine, then I would deal with the va.s.sal races first. Eliminating any disturbances behind."

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Then it's a pity that you're not a Divine. This time, we had truly hit a sensitive nerve of the Divine Race. What they want to do right now is to deal with us. From what I can see, the va.s.sal races had yet to make a result even after a few days. For the Divines, as long as we are dealt with, going for the va.s.sal races would be very easy to do. I reckon they will come to us first."

Lizzy nodded, she thought that Zhao Hai was correct. These va.s.sal races truly weren't a big threat to the Divine Race. Even if the Divine Race army didn't attack them, as long as a Supreme Elder was sent in, then the va.s.sal races wouldn't be able to resist.

However, Zhao Hai's group was different. They had the strength to contend against ultimate weapons. In this case, Zhao Hai's demise would need to be prioritized.

It can be said that using ultimate weapons required a certain price to pay for the Supreme Elders. If they waste this opportunity and deal with the va.s.sal races, then what would they do in order to face Zhao Hai? In this case, they can only wait for their deaths, and the end of the Divine Race. Because of this, the Divines would want to find Zhao Hai and compel him to a decisive battle.

After thinking about this, Lizzy immediately said, "Big Brother Hai, I think we should tell Fei'er and the others about this as soon as possible. If they are unprepared, then their losses would be very big."

Zhao Hai nodded, "We certainly need to inform them. However, the three clans won't listen to us, there's nothing much we can do. Forget it, let's just have fate decide. I hope that after they eat some losses, they would come to trust me and agree to enter the s.p.a.ce."

Lizzy and the others smiled bitterly. They knew that this won't be easy. The Thunder Clan and the others were very tenacious people. It was close to impossible for the the three clans to trust Zhao Hai completely. It would take quite the effort to have them move to the s.p.a.ce.

But as the matter stands, the three clans  would surely lose big after facing the Divines. This wasn't something that Lizzy and the others wanted to see, this caused them to be in a dilemma.

To be honest, Lizzy and the other didn't intend to push the three clans to a corner when they attacked the central continent. This development was just not under their control.

Chapter 915 – Destruction and Regret!

Zhao Hai didn't immediately tell Fei'er about what he had speculated. After all, these were just his guesses. Moreover, Zhao Hai wouldn't let the Divine Supreme Elders to easily deal with Fei'er and the others.

Currently, Zhao Hai was able to equip more and more Devil Legion Soldiers with combat suits that were grown in the s.p.a.ce. To be honest, even if the Supreme Elders were to gang up on him, Zhao Hai could just mobilize the Devil Legion. He wasn't really afraid of the Divine Race.

However, that would also cause huge losses to the Devil Legion. This wasn't something that Zhao Hai wanted to see. Zhao Hai hoped to preserve the Devil Legion as much as possible.

If Zhao Hai didn't plan to use the Devil Legion to deal with the O'Neal family, then it was the same for the battle against the stronger Supreme Elders.

Although it can be said that the Devil Legion was under the command of the Great Demon King, the Great Demon King has slowly undergone a change. And this change was something that Zhao Hai hoped for.

The Great Demon King's change began when Zhao Hai gave the Devil Legion the combat suits. After giving the combat suits, Zhao Hai actually didn't give them anything to do. The Great Demon King thought that Zhao Hai gave them combat suits in order to command them, instead it was actually to give help. Because of this, the Great Demon King began to look at Zhao Hai in a different light.

Further down the line, with the s.p.a.ce's help, the Great Demon King would look favorably towards Zhao Hai. But now, the Great Demon King was still at a crucial moment. Zhao Hai didn't want to move the Devil Legion at this time lest he waste all of his previous efforts.

Besides the Devil Legion, Zhao Hai also took great care towards the people from the Ark Continent. At this moment, Zhao Hai had already raised a lot of people into G.o.d-ranks using his potions. Moreover, Zhao Hai also selected some of them and had them sent to the h.e.l.l background for some tempering.

However, it would be impossible for to form an army out of the Ark Continent's people in a short period of time. Their strength was still not up to par. Forget about Supreme Elders, none of them had even fought against other G.o.d-rank experts. Even if they had combat suits, they still didn't have the ability to join the fight in the Divine Realm.

Besides the Ark Continent and the Demons, the other army that Zhao Hai can use was his undead. At this time, Zhao Hai had collected a large quant.i.ty of G.o.d-rank undead. These undead were mostly DemiG.o.ds, but there were still a lot of them who had reached true G.o.d-rank strength.

But Zhao Hai found a problem. After equipping the combat suits, the undead couldn't actually use 100% of their strength. The combat suits were completely unsuitable for the use of the undead. This worried Zhao Hai.

Of all the combat suits made by the s.p.a.ce, save some for Zhao Hai, everything was given to the Devil Legion. If Zhao Hai wanted to equip the entire Devil Legion with combat suits, then it would take him a very long time. Because of this, Zhao Hai decided to give combat suits to his G.o.d-rank undead, further improving their strengths.

However, Zhao Hai was left disappointed. After putting the combat suits on, these G.o.d-rank undead did improve in strength, but compared to Supreme Elders, they were still vastly inferior. Moreover, these undead would move awkwardly inside those suits. This might not look serious, but in a real combat situation this was fatal. Forget about improving their strength, the undead would be hindered by the combat suits. This forced Zhao Hai to abandon his plan.

Because of these reasons, if Zhao Hai wanted to fight the Supreme Elders, then he would have to make a move himself. But the issue with this was that Zhao Hai couldn't make a lot of moves.

Just like how the Supreme Elders couldn't use their combat weapons for a long time, Zhao Hai also couldn't move a lot or else he would be kicked out by the realm and ascend with no way of coming back. To be honest, Zhao Hai still didn't want to leave. The Divine Realm still had a lot of good things that were yet to be taken. At the very least, Zhao Hai wanted to get the Sealing Star Disk that was in the hands of Elder Star.

Zhao Hai resumed to watch the Divines. They were still in chaos. At this time, not only the Central Continent, the other continents went insane as well. Even the continents of the foreign races were affected.

When Bingya and the others told their clans that Zhao Hai destroyed the Connecting Heaven Palace, their clans thought that this was a joke. But when they noticed that the attacking army retreated quickly, even discarding their supplies, they understood that it was real. This caused an uproar among the foreign races.

There were a lot of people from the foreign races that haven't seen Zhao Hai. They allied with Zhao Hai entirely because they thought that he was competent. Being able to destroy the Taurus Divines was an evidence to this.

But Zhao Hai was actually able to destroy the Connecting Heaven Palace. Although the Connecting Heaven Palace wasn't a sacred landmark of the Foreign races, the foreign races knew what the palace represented for the Divine Race. The Foreign Races' three Supreme Elders immediately convened in order to discuss how to deal with this matter.

In their opinion, this was an opportunity but at the same time it may become a maelstrom. It was an opportunity because of the accident with the Connecting Heaven Palace. At this time, the Divines were in chaos so the foreign races might be able to use this to make an attack.

However, it may become a maelstrom because this event was just too huge. The degree of randomness in this situation was quite high. It wasn't even sure if the Divines were to continue being chaotic or if they were going to band together. The foreign races weren't sure if they were to gain from this maelstrom or if they would be flattened.

The ordinary members of the foreign races didn't have these complicated thoughts. They hated the Divines because the Divines always bullied them. Now that the Divines were having a disaster, it was natural if they were happy. These ordinary members weren't stupid. They were also able to think that the Divines were in chaos. Because of this, they unanimously demanded to send troops to the Divine Race territory.

But the biggest beneficiary of this matter would be the va.s.sal races. With what has happened, the Divines didn't have the time to deal with the va.s.sal rebellion. As long as they don't taunt the Divines, then the Divines wouldn't care about them. This made the va.s.sal races, who had been suppressed by the Divines, feel strange. They didn't know what happened. They even thought that the foreign races had sent troops in order to help them break through.

Three days after Zhao Hai destroyed the Connecting Heaven Palace, Elder Star arrived in the Central Continent. At this time, the Central Continent was a land of chaos. All the cities were almost in ruins. In the past, the Central Continent was very lively, but now it was reduced to this state. This made Elder Star pale.

Elder Star's expression was dark. On the road, he managed to see Divines fighting and carrying out meaningless ma.s.sacres. Those people seem to have lost their minds.

Although Elder Star wanted them to stop, these people simply couldn't hear anything. Their eyes were blood red, the only thing they knew right now was murder. They were already beyond help!

After the destruction of the Connecting Heaven Palace, these people went crazy. Some of them even killed their own families. After the anger in their hearts was quenched and they realized what they had done, they turned insane once more.

When he saw this situation, Elder Star knew that the Central Continent had come to its end. Restoring the continent to its former state would be almost impossible. Moreover, the economy and cultural situation of the Central Continent has been turned back at a minimum of 200 years.

Of course, Elder Star wasn't without harvest. He still met people who were sober. These people were weak and didn't dare to stay in the cities. They were afraid of those madmen to they could only run to the wild. They haven't eaten, nor they had any change of clothes. They were having difficulties getting by.

Elder Star couldn't help but feel helpless when he saw this. In the end, he arranged these people to settle on one of the cities. As for the madmen that were in that city, Elder Star had to steel his heart and kill them all.

Following close behind Elder Star were the other Supreme Elders. They were startled at what the Central Continent had become. They didn't think that the Central Continent would turn into this wasteland. Their hearts bled for the people, and they were also scared!

The plan was set-up by Elder Star. And although Elder Star was the one who proposed it, it was discussed repeatedly and the Supreme Elders thought that it was perfect. And it wasn't only because of the Seven Star Heaven Lock, it was also because of the arrangement of the Divines and the Fishmen as well.

The Divine Realm's Fishman Race survived in the sea for a long time. Moreover, they can command their magic beasts to defend each continent. One could say that there was no way for Zhao Hai to escape their eyes.

However, Zhao Hai actually managed to slip through, and even destroyed the Connecting Heaven Palace. Such skill was something that the Divines didn't have. Facing this mysterious enemy that was able to appear and disappear at will, the Supreme Elders couldn't help but feel frightened deep inside.

Zhao Hai only managed to see Elder Star five days after Elder Star arrived at the Central Continent. The reason for this was because Elder Star had been gathering refugees and killing those who had gone insane.

Upon seeing Elder Star, Zhao Hai couldn't help but jump. The last time he saw Elder Star, the elder still looked like a lordly middle-aged person. He spoke clearly and had a great demeanor.

But now, Elder Star's appearance was completely different. His hair had almost turned white, his clothes were ragged. He had two blood red eyes and looked thin. He looked crazy and didn't have his lordly look anymore.

However, Zhao Hai can understand Elder Star's mood. Elder Star was a native of the Central Continent. After becoming the Supreme Elder, he regarded everyone in the Central Continent as his juniors, his children, his family members. Now that his home has been turned to this, he found it hard to accept it.

Zhao Hai lightly sighed. He didn't really expect the Central Continent to turn into this. He only attacked the Connecting Heaven Palace because it was the Central Continent's Imperial Palace. Moreover, Bingya also said that the place was an important landmark. Zhao Hai only wanted to cause panic in the Central Continent, compelling Elder Star to come back. Then Zhao Hai would hide in some place, waiting for a convenient time to make a move.

However, the situation had turned into something that exceeded his imagination. Zhao Hai didn't expect the reaction to be this severe. The entire continent actually turned frantic upon the destruction of their Connecting Heaven Palace.

Take Divine Gift City for example. When Zhao Hai arrived here, the city was still a bustling hub. But in the past few days, the city basically destroyed itself under Zhao Hai's watch. Zhao Hai saw the city's residence destroy their homes bit by bit. They killed their family members, then went insane before killing each other. Even if Zhao Hai had a heart of stone, he still couldn't look at this calmly. If one compares these people to the captured Taurus Divines, the Taurus Divines would look to be the happy ones.

Although there were Taurus Divines who were killed, only a small number of commoners died. There were still people among the Taurus Divines who had the capacity to hate, and those who can still think about revenge.

On the other hand, the people from the Central Continent were different. They hated Zhao Hai, yes, but after becoming sober, they hated themselves even more. They hated themselves for ruining their homes and killing their families. They couldn't bear this shock as they just turned insane once more.

Afterwards, Zhao Hai managed to see the other Supreme Elders. These Supreme Elders appeared distressed. However, their complexion was still better compared to Elder Star. After counting nine Supreme Elders, Zhao Hai felt relief.

Laura and the others had also seen what happened. Every time they see a Divine turn crazy, they also couldn't help but lose a bit of their sanity.

Zhao Hai felt that this wasn't good, so he sent Laura and the others to the s.p.a.ce. He told them to do something else in order to waste time. Meanwhile, Zhao Hai stayed and looked at the monitor.

When he discovered Elder Star, Zhao Hai immediately called Laura and the others back. But before they arrived, Zhao Hai turned the monitor off.

When Laura and the others came out, they saw Zhao Hai sitting in the living room. There was a bottle of liquor in front of him, the bottle only had half of its contents left.

Zhao Hai was someone who drinks minimally. This was something that Laura and the others knew. After seeing this, they understood that Zhao Hai was also feeling ill. This caused the group to feel bad. Meg immediately went to the kitchen and prepared some good food that would go great with wine. Meanwhile, Laura and the others sat down with him.

Chapter 916 – Don't Offend A Dark Mage!

One couldn't always do what one likes. There's always a consequence in every action!

This statement was in Zhao Hai's mind at this time. He knew that he was in an irreconcilable situation with the Divine Race now. Even if he was willing to give up, the Divines wouldn't let him off.

To be honest, Zhao Hai didn't care about murder. But after seeing the current state of the Divines, Zhao Hai was shaken.

Laura and the others were able to understand Zhao Hai's thoughts. Zhao Hai wasn't a stone hearted person. Although he was indifferent towards the enemy, he would still have a soft heart for ordinary people.

Because of this, Zhao Hai was sad regarding the current situation. Laura and the others didn't say anything and just accompanied Zhao Hai. They wanted to let Zhao Hai feel that he wasn't alone.

At this time, Meg arrived with the side dishes and then placed them on the table. After taking a sip of his wine, Zhao Hai said, "Elder Star and the others have arrived. It seems like the Central Continent would start to calm down soon. Moreover, it seems like they really did have a plan to deal with us. We thought that they had a teleportation device but we were wrong. We still don't know what method they had prepared for us."

Laura and the others slightly frowned. The appearance of the group of Supreme Elders meant that they had confidence and means in dealing with Zhao Hai. But what was their plan? It was still a mystery.

Lizzy turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Hai, aren't we going to attack the Leo Continent? How about we go through with that plan? If we attack the Leo Continent, then we would be able to see what methods they had prepared. No matter what, they need to use that method sooner or later. When the time comes, wouldn't we be able to find out?"

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "It seems like that is the only way. Alright, now that Elder Star and the others are here, I guess it's time to go to the Leo continent."

The next moment, they already appeared inside the Leo Continent's Lion River, the continent's largest river.

Zhao Hai and the others arrived here with the help of the s.p.a.ce. In the past, they entered the Leo Continent through this river. Because of this, the s.p.a.ce already recorded the place down.

After arriving at Lion River, Zhao Hai didn't immediately go and attack the Leo Divines. He knew what his goal was, and that was to attack the place that the Leo Divines hold dear. Only in this way would the Supreme Elders be moved, and only then could Zhao Hai find an opportunity to defeat them.

Zhao Hai and the others walked along the river while observing the situation with the Leo Continent. What Zhao Hai saw was something different from what he imagined. Zhao Hai thought that it was only the Central Continent who had a chaotic result. After all, the attack was made in the Central Continent. Other places shouldn't be affected.

However, there were some troubles in the Leo Continent as well. But the situation here was much better compared to the Central Continent. Although there were still people who caused trouble, they were still able to be controlled.

After seeing this, Zhao Hai wasn't sure if he should make a move. It was clear that if he acts now, then that would be the spark that would light a fire on the Leo Continent. At this time, the Leo Continent was like a barrel of gunpowder with a fuse. As long as a spark came in, the barrel would explode.

Zhao Hai looked at the monitor and frowned. Lizzy and the others looked at the screen as well. After a few moments, the group turned their gazes towards Zhao Hai.

Feeling everybody else's gaze, Zhao Hai clenched his teeth and said, "We go through!"

Then after that, Zhao Hai went outside and said, "Bingya, come here."

Bingya and the others stayed inside their room in the past few days. They contacted their clans from time to time, so they knew that the Divine Race army had retreated. This allowed them to feel relief.

Bingya and the others were unable to see the situation outside, so they weren't aware about what the Central Continent turned into. However, when they saw Zhao Hai's state, they chose the right decision and just stayed in.

Now that Zhao Hai called him over, Bingya, as well as Ryder and Yehta, immediately ran out. They knew that Zhao Hai wouldn't call them out for no reason. After seeing Zhao Hai, the three couldn't help but stare. Zhao Hai's expression was heavy, this caused their hearts to sink. They didn't know what caused Zhao Hai to be like this.

Zhao Hai looked at the trio and said, "What is the most important place in the Leo Continent? Where should we attack?" Bingya was stunned. He didn't expect Zhao Hai's question. However, Bingya carefully gave his answer, "Mister, did something happen? Isn't it too risky to attack the Leo Continent? Did Elder Star and the others go to the Central Continent?"

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Correct, they already arrived there. We're now in the Leo Continent. Tell me which place to attack."

Bingya thought for a moment and said, "The Leo Continent is quite special. From what I learned from the family, their most important landmark isn't their Imperial Palace, but Lion Rock!"

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Continue"

Bingya gave a nod, "Lion Rock is a giant tomb where the Leo Emperors are buried as well as the warriors who died for the Continent. It is a place where the spirit of the Leo Continent resides in."

Zhao Hai couldn't help but frown. He wasn't a grave digger. However, this target only comprised of dead people, so there weren't so many murders but in exchange they could plunge the Leo Continent into chaos.

Bingya saw Zhao Hai's expression and then said, "Aside from Lion Rock, the Imperial Palace is also quite important. However, the palace is heavily guarded. At least, an army is stationed there."

Zhao Hai looked at Bingya and said, "Where is Lion Rock?"

Bingya responded, "It is 50 kilometers east of Lion Palace. The name of the rock came from how it looks like a Lion lying on the ground. I heard that the Leo Royals bury their Emperors there. At the same time, that is also the place where they bury the brave warriors who defended the Leo Royals."

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Where is Lion Palace's specific location?"

Bingya answered, "Lion Palace is on the east bank of the Lion River. It isn't close to the River, but there is a satellite city nearby called Thirsty Lion City. If we don't plan to go to Lion Palace, then we can just continue going along the River to reach the head part of Lion Rock. Its position makes it look like the Lion is drinking by the river."

Zhao Hai gave a nod, "Good, then let's go and destroyed Lion Rock later today."

Bingya and the others didn't dare to say anything. They knew Zhao Hai's way of doing things, and they also wouldn't oppose to the idea. Their hatred towards the Divines was too deep. They couldn't wait to destroy the Divine Race's grave.

What Zhao Hai and the others didn't know was the fact that Elder Star and the others were in the Leo Continent during the time they went astray. Luckily, Zhao Hai didn't think of making a move at that time.

Bingya saw that Zhao Hai's expression didn't go any better. On the contrary, Zhao Hai looked distant. In the end, Bingya couldn't help but ask, "Mister, did something happen?" Zhao Hai looked at Bingya and smiled, "Don't worry, nothing is wrong. The situation is greatly beneficial to us."

But Bingya was still confused, "But why is Mister's expression heavy? I just couldn't help but think that something bad has happened. Is Mister really fine?"

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "It's fine. Go and prepare, we'll arrive at Lion Rock soon."

Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Bingya couldn't help but stare, then he asked, "Mister, we're nearing Lion Rock? That quick?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Of course we're fast. Don't worry, even if we arrive at Lion Rock, we won't begin immediately. We'll do the same as before, we attack at night. This time, I'm planning to turn all the Leo Emperors into undead!"

As soon as Zhao Hai said this, Bingya and the others couldn't help but s.h.i.+ver in fright. Zhao Hai's means were too ruthless. It was at this time where they understood why the clan didn't want to offend Dark Mages. One shouldn't offend a Dark Mage.

Before long, the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p stopped. Zhao Hai turned to the three and said, "Alright, go and take a rest. We've reached Lion Rock. We make our move this evening." After saying that, Zhao Hai went to return to his room.

Bingya and the others looked at Zhao Hai in confusion. They didn't know why Zhao Hai was in a bad mood today.

When Zhao Hai returned to his room, Laura and the others immediately went to welcome him. Laura looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Hai, will we really turn the skeletons in Lion Rock into undead? Those undead wouldn't be that strong, they're quite useless. Even if they are transformed by the s.p.a.ce, their strength could only be as strong as ordinary undead."

Zhao Hai steeled his heart and said, "Yes, we'll turn every skeleton there into undead. Moreover, we won't have the s.p.a.ce improve them and just let them attack the Leo Continent. In any case, the Divines are now our enemy. We need to refrain from showing pity. We need to deal with the Divine Race. After that, there's still the O'Neal family and the Underworld. Perhaps, we can even use the Divines in the future."

As soon as they heard this, Laura and the others gawked. Then they began to understand Zhao Hai. It was indeed like what Zhao Hai said. Maybe they can save more people this way.

Chapter 917 – This Also Costs Money?

Just like what Zhao Hai said, more people would be saved if the Divines were dealt with much sooner. Zhao Hai was very clear that the Underworld was still encroaching. Although the O'Neal family was present, it would be impossible for them to stop its advance. In this case, the Dark mist would reach the Divine Realm, and that day wouldn't be too far.

From the moment the Underworld appeared to the present, about one year has pa.s.sed. But these days, the Dark Mist had already spread towards the Aksu Empire. This speed was nothing short of quick. It would be soon before the O'Neal family would clash with the underworld.

Judging by the speed, the Dark Mist would surely reach the Divine Realm. When that time comes, more people would certainly die in the Divine Realm..

Zhao Hai wasn't expecting the Divines to deal with the Underworld. The Dark Mist's expansion was like the law of the heaven and the earth. The Dark Mist suppresses all light while darkness was strengthened by it. In this case, it would be hard for the Divines to deal with the Underworld.

If the Divines fail to deal with the Underworld, then the Divines would get exterminated. With this eventuality, Zhao Hai might as well finish the war as soon as possible. Perhaps he can rescue the Divine commoners and send them to the s.p.a.ce.

After expressing this thought, Laura and the others didn't speak anything. Attacking Lion Rock at this time was indeed the better choice. This method might have some unexpected effects.

Zhao Hai kept silent and just sat down as he looked at the monitor. Bingya and the others returned to their rooms. They went on to contact their clan for updates. They wanted to find out why Zhao Hai's mood was terrible.

When Bingya got the result, he finally found out how messed up the Central Continent had become. The va.s.sal races even used this opportunity to grab some territory. However, the Divines didn't do anything about it.

After knowing this result, Bingya couldn't help but get shocked. He never expected it to be like this. He immediately called Ryder and Yehta over to his room and told them about the information he received.

When Ryder and Yehta heard Bingya, they were stunned. Then Ryder whispered, "The Central Continent is now under chaos, but why is Mister unhappy?"

Yehta also frowned, she was similarly confused about this matter. Normally, with this outcome, the one who would be the happiest would be Zhao Hai. Instead, Zhao Hai was actually not.

Bingya thought for a moment and said, "I thought of one possibility. It's possible that Mister is thinking that it's too excessive. Remember, back in the Taurus Continent, Mister only killed those who dared to rebel. As for the commoners, Mister would just send them to another place using his ability. In the past, I thought Mister just killed them. But now, I realized that he just sent them to another place. This time, the Central Continent's chaos not only included the soldiers, it affected the commoners as well. It's possible that Mister didn't want to see this. Therefore, Mister had a bad mood."

Yehta and Ryder nodded, they thought that this explanation was reasonable. However, Ryder suddenly saw Bingya frown. He couldn't help but feel puzzled as he said, "Bingya, what's wrong?"

Bingya frowned and said, "I always thought that Mister came to the Divine Realm in order to exact revenge. However, with Mister strength, he should have already caused a big mess to the Divine Realm. Why is this the case?"

Ryder and Yehta couldn't help but frown as well. They had followed Zhao Hai for some time already, so they were very clear about Zhao Hai's strength. Zhao Hai's abilities exceeded their explanation. Even if the Supreme Elders were sent in, he still wasn't compelled to use all of his strength. This was a completely different conduct for someone who wanted revenge. They didn't think about it before since Zhao Hai had killed a lot of Divines. But after Bingya said this, they also thought that Zhao Hai's actions were a bit strange. It didn't look like he was out for revenge.

Zhao Hai wasn't paying attention to Bingya and the others. After he saw Bingya and the others return to their rooms, Zhao Hai made his move. He commanded his s.h.i.+p and drilled underneath Lion Rock.

Drilling underground wasn't an easy task, but Zhao Hai was able to find a method.

He used the magic cannons of the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p to shoot at the river, vaporizing the rocks and allowing him to pa.s.s through.

Zhao Hai took Bubble back, but the h.e.l.l King's s.h.i.+p didn't become bigger. Because of this, even if Zhao Hai had disturbed the bottom of Lion River, he didn't attract any attention.

Zhao Hai slowly moved forward as it penetrated the ground under Lion Rock. Then Zhao Hai stopped, he was waiting until night comes.

The reason why Zhao Hai had the s.h.i.+p go under Lion Rock wasn't just because he wanted to stage an attack. He also wanted to see if there were any defenses in the vicinity.

Zhao Hai soon discovered that he did the right thing. Although there weren't a lot of Divines here, there was a huge magic formation surrounding the rock. At the same time, there was an army of 10 thousand Divines stationed at one corner. As soon as there was little movement, they can react immediately.

Moreover, Zhao Hai found out that every other hour, the army would send out 1000 soldiers to survey the area around Lion Rock. One could say that the defense was quite strict.

This place was very deep into the Leo Continent. For the Leo Divines to arrange an army in this place only shows how important Lion Rock was.

But this only caused Zhao Hai's idea to destroy Lion Rock to be strengthened. With the current atmosphere, the destruction of Lion Rock would surely push the Leo Divines to insanity.

When the Leo Divines go mad, Zhao Hai would benefit no matter which party they decide to attack. If they attack the foreign races and cause the foreign races to be in a dangerous position, then perhaps Zhao Hai can use this opportunity to send the foreign races to the s.p.a.ce.

If the Divines act on the Thunder Clan and the others, then Zhao Hai would choose to entangle them in the Taurus Continent. After that, Zhao Hai could use the Divines to pressure the Thunder Clan and the others. This way, they might be compelled to move into the s.p.a.ce. No matter which move the Divines make, Zhao Hai's move this time would be worth it.

After knowing about the defense situation of Lion Rock, Zhao Hai moved on and carefully examined the defensive formation. When Zhao Hai saw this formation, he couldn't help but pause. This magic formation didn't follow the convention used by the other formations of the Divine Race.

Although Zhao Hai wasn't skilled in magic formations, he had a lot of interactions with them in the past few days. In this case, he had some understanding with regards to them. Moreover, defensive formations were the most commonly used formations, making Zhao Hai even more familiar.

And even if there were a lot of defensive formations in the Divine Realm, Zhao Hai found out that those defensive formations were the most basic types. At the most, there were more complicated ones but they can still be readable.

Meanwhile, the magic formation on Lion Rock was something that Zhao Hai had never seen before. This formation comprised of several formation disks. From what Zhao Hai counted, there were eight disks in this formation.

Zhao Hai looked at the eight positions carefully. He found that their placement seemed to be very new and was arranged not too long ago.

After seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but get curious. He immediately made Cai'er record the formation and sent it to the scanner to be a.n.a.lyzed.

When the formation went out of the building, the scanner immediately issued a sound, "Because formation is higher than Host's level, asking Host to pay 1 million gold coins!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but gawk. He didn't think that the scanner would have this ability, moreover it also asked for payment.

Zhao Hai turned to Cai'er and said, "Cai'er, how does this work? Why does the scanner require money? If the formation is higher than my level, then wouldn't it just say nothing? Just like the combat suits?"

Cai'er smiled and said, "Young Master, it seems like you didn't read the Universal Scanner's description. The scanner can also improve itself. And since you are the host, the scanner would cater to your convenience. You are level 85 now, as long as the item is less than 50 levels above you, then you can spend money in order to a.n.a.lyze it."

Zhao Hai stared, he didn't expect it to be like this. He nodded and said, "So it's like that. I didn't read the description properly. Good, then scan it immediately!" In any case, Zhao Hai wasn't short on money. One million gold coins was only a small number to h
