After cultivating for three days in the yellowsand planet inside the Space, Zhao Hai went out . What came out with him was a pile of things . There were three bows as well as about 1000 arrows . There were also four shields as well as Xiong Li’s hammer .
Although Ma Rulong was somewhat puzzled that Zhao Hai was closing up, he didn’t say anything . It was well known that Zhao Hai liked to seclude himself . He had secluded himself a lot of times back when he was in the Ashley Family . The time he spent outside was very short . If he wasn’t doing missions or participating in competitions, Zhao Hai would spend most of his time closing up . This caused everyone to be very curious about him .
Xiong Li and the others were still guarding the door into Zhao Hai’s room and wouldn’t let anyone approach . Everyone had already been used to this . While the brothers were chatting, the door to Zhao Hai’s room opened . Zhao Hai was there smiling faintly like before .
Upon seeing Zhao Hai, Xiong Li’s eyes couldn’t help but light up . Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Come in . ” Xiong Li and the others immediately entered the room .
Zhao Hai waved his hand and took out Xiong Li’s hammers . As he gave them to Xiong Li, he said, “Boss Xiong, give it a try . I installed 80 formations inside . Naturally, there’s weapon shattering as well . ”
Xiong Li anxiously nodded with excitement . He took the hammers and then gave it a couple of waves before he nodded with satisfaction . After that, Zhao Hai took out a shield and then said, “Try it out . ”
This shield wasn’t the one he prepared for Xiong Li and the others . Xiong Li didn’t hesitate as he hit the shield with his hammer . It didn’t take long before the shield exploded and turned into dust . Xiong Li became even more satisfied with the result .
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “In addition to its original formations, I also added the weapon shattering formation . At the same time, I added a defense strengthening formation to your chains . There’s also an energy storage formation added, this way, even if you use your hammer as a projectile, it could still inflict weapon shattering . ”
Xiong Li laughed as he waved his hammer a few more times . Then after putting his hammers away he hugged Zhao Hai and said, “Thank you for the hammers, Little Hai . This will increase my combat ability by at least three layers . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and then said, “Right, I have other things to give you . ” After he said that, he took out the bows and arrows that he made . Xiong Li and the others could only stare at what they saw . They were all looking puzzled as they looked at Zhao Hai .
Zhao Hai proceeded to explain the use of these bows and arrows . Xiong Li and the others were pleasantly surprised . Just like what Zhao Hai thought, XIong Li and the others were very familiar with bows and arrows . They had used it in some manner back in the lower realms . Xiong Li and the others immediately received their bows and arrows . They didn’t even need to try them out .
After that, Zhao Hai took out a few shields . These several hundred shields weren’t only for Warriors like Xiong Li, some were for Sun Fei as well . Once he had handed out the shields to everyone, Zhao Hai said, “I also added weapon shattering to these shields . The property of weapon shattering cannot only be used for offense, it’s effective for defense as well . It’s vibration would cause the enemy’s energy to dissipate, allowing the shield to block the attack better . These shields can only block one full strike from someone like Li Chuchen . Therefore, be careful when using them . ”
Xiong Li and the others nodded . Then Zhao Hai turned to Sun Fei and said, “Little Fei, how is your research on magic formations doing?”
With shining eyes, Sun Fei replied, “I understood several formations . Brother Hai, you’re really great . When I experimented, the magic formations have truly marvelous effects . They may look similar to ordinary formations, but their effects are three layers above . It’s mystical . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly as he patted Sun Fei’s shoulder and said, “Use the remaining time to study more formations . If your mastery gets higher, I can teach you more magic formation sets . I can even teach you the weapon shattering formation . ”
When he heard Zhao Hai, Sun Fei’s eyes lit up . He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Brother Hai, do you mean?”
Zhao Hai nodded, “What I mean is if your mastery goes higher, I can give you the weapon shattering formation . Think about a fireball with weapon shattering . What would that look like . ”
Sun Fei repeatedly nodded, yearning could be seen in his eyes . Zhao Hai looked at him and said, “Don’t think about it too much . Focus on practicing . With your current spiritual force, there’s no way for you to use weapon shattering . Even I need to exert effort in order to use it . ”
Sun Fei nodded, “Brother Hai, rest assured, I will work hard . ”
Zhao Hai nodded, then after the group sat down, he said, “Now that we’re in the Cultivation Realm, we have no place to spar in . Even if there is, we still can’t go since the Cultivators could spy on us . The best opportunity to practice the bows and arrows is right in the elimination round . I don’t want to offend you, but your present strength is still far off compared to the Cultivators . The bows and arrows that I gave you isn’t for defeating your opponents rather it’s for you to protect yourself . The Cultivators wouldn’t be holding back, and I need you all to survive . Let’s wait a couple of years before coming back to clean them all up . ”
Xiong Li and the others nodded . They didn’t feel that they were great just because Zhao Hai managed to kill Gongsun Zheng . Zhao Hai effortlessly beat his opponents in the realm qualifiers . This fully explained how strong Zhao Hai was . Although he had ascended for less than a year’s time, Xiong Li and the others had already recognized him as the core of their group .
Although Zhao Hai’s words weren’t pleasant to hear, Xiong Li and the others weren’t fools . They knew the strength of the Cultivation Realm . They weren’t even a match against Gongsun Zheng, not to say about the others higher ranked than him .
The fight between Zhao Hai and Gongsun Zheng might look very relaxed, but this was only because Zhao Hai was using light element magic which happens to restrain ghosts . Moreover, Zhao Hai could cast 50 and 100-layer formations easily . This made it possible for Zhao Hai to eliminate Gongsun Zheng in a swift manner . If it was Xiong Li and the others, then they wouldn’t have as good of a fighting chance as Zhao Hai .
Sun Fei was a Mage, so he was the one who was most aware about Zhao Hai’s strength . Even if the two of them were level 4 Mages, only Zhao Hai was able to effortlessly cast 100-layer formations .
After seeing the others nod, Zhao Hai added, “After the competition, I’ll go and find ourselves a base . There, we brothers can practice together . If we head back to the Machine Field, then we’ll just be going back to being workhorses . ” Upon listening to Zhao Hai, Xiong Li and the others stared . Then their eyes turned bright before their eyebrows knit themselves in .
To be honest, Zhao Hai’s proposal was very good . However, they didn’t have much confidence in Zhao Hai . In their minds, Zhao Hai might be strong, but not enough to take on the entire Machine Field .
Upon seeing their reactions, Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “I didn’t say that we would separate from the Machine Field, or treat them as an enemy . I just want us to have a place where we could live independently . I believe this wouldn’t be difficult to do . ” Xiong Li nodded, “Of course, that wouldn’t be difficult . There are a lot of experts in the Machine Field that took in asteroids or meteorites as bases, living in relative independence . With Little Hai’s current strength, it’s possible for us to be allowed to do that . If we can get good rankings, I reckon they wouldn’t stop us . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Alright, then that’s settled . I will definitely get a good ranking . When the time comes, we would have our own place and can do whatever we want . ”
Xiong Li and the others let out a long breath filled with yearning . To be honest, although their families had attached great importance to them, this didn’t make them feel good . They wanted to be independent and free .
Suddenly, Li Kuangren said, “Little Hai, have you discussed this with Margaret? To be honest, women like Margaret are very hard to find . You should treasure her opinion . If she opposes this, what would you do?”
Zhao Hai didn’t expect Li Kuangren to say such words . He seemed like a dense person, but he actually had a sensitive side . Being able to think about this thing meant that he was quite the sentimental person .
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry about it Third Brother . I already told Margaret about this and she agreed to it . In fact, her relationship with the Ashley Family wasn’t that good because of her mother . She had been independent from a very young age . She agrees to this decision as long as I lend the Ashley Family a hand during times of crisis . ”
Li Kuangren made a sigh of relief before he looked at Zhao Hai with envy and said, “You’re a lucky kid to meet a good woman like Margaret . Well, it’s good that Margaret agrees . Otherwise, I don’t think we can continue . If you quarrel with Margaret, then I think we would all feel restless . ” Xiong Li nodded and said, “Right, what Third Brother said is correct . If this makes your relationship with Margaret unpleasant, then I don’t think anyone here would feel great . ”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Be relieved, Margaret agrees . Right, all of you should use the rest of the days to practice . Use these potions to practice . This will allow you to improve your strength . In any case, we can’t head out now . We might as well use the time to practice . ”
As he said that, Zhao Hai took out several bottles of potions . The Machine Field’s medicines were different to the Cultivation Realm’s . In the Machine Field, medicines came in liquid form while the Cultivation Realm had medicinal pills . Pills were more convenient to carry . And when it came to effects, they were much better compared to the Machine Field’s potions . This was mainly because the Cultivation Realm had much better materials than the Machine Field .
Each large sect in the Cultivation Realm had its own medicinal garden . Moreover, these gardens were divided into ordinary gardens and advanced-level gardens . Planted inside ordinary gardens were the ordinary herbs that doesn’t take a long time to mature . As for the advanced-level gardens, they had the more valuable herbs planted in . Their maturity time was a very long time . There were some herbs that required several hundred years while some were over a thousand . These kinds of valuable herbs couldn’t be found in the Machine Field .
The major sects of the Cultivation Realm existed for tens of thousands of years . With their deep foundation, it was no wonder that they would have high-level medicinal gardens . Others simply couldn’t compare .
Because of such medicinal gardens, pills in the Cultivation Realm were much better compared to the Machine Field’s potions . However, this didn’t mean that potions didn’t have an advantage . Since potions were in liquid form, they were easier to absorb and were thus faster in its effects .
However, the Machine Field didn’t have a lot of variety when it comes to potions . It was very different compared to the Cultivation Realm where each sect had their own pill formulas . In the Machine Field, not a lot of people could use potions to help with their cultivation . Moreover, these potions were very precious, ordinary people could never get ahold of them .
The bottles that Zhao Hai took out weren’t small . Each bottle had about five jin(2 . 5kg) of liquid inside . Seeing the contents of each bottle, Xiong Li and the others couldn’t help but get startled .
Seeing these huge bottles, Xiong Li suddenly said, “It seems like I need to take a walk in the Wu Family more often . If I also get a young miss as a wife, then maybe I can drink these potions as water . ”
Xiong Li’s remark caused Li Kuangren and the others to laugh . But all of them knew that Zhao Hai didn’t get these potions through Margaret . After getting to know Zhao Hai for the past few days, they knew that he wasn’t that kind of person .
Although they made their own comments, the brothers weren’t too polite . All of them took one bottle and then left . With their current relationship with Zhao Hai, politeness was no longer needed . Instead, being overly polite would just make the situation awkward .
After the others left, Zhao Hai went out of his room and found a team leader in the courtyard . He told the team leader that they were going to be closing up for a while, and that nobody should disturb them .
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, the team leader couldn’t help but look at him as though he was a monster . However, the team leader didn’t say anything and just nodded .
Zhao Hai didn’t bother to think about what the team leader thought . When he returned to his own room, he locked the door and then entered the Space . Although he had been practicing in the yellowsand environment for the past three days, he had yet to saturate his body with astral qi . He still needed some time to finish his practice . Zhao Hai believed that as long as his body gets saturated with astral qi once more, then his strength would skyrocket .
Zhao Hai didn’t dare to underestimate the Cultivators . Even if he had gotten stronger recently, he didn’t let his guard down . This was because the methods of the Cultivators were still too mysterious for the Machine Field . One wouldn’t know what secret techniques a Cultivator might have . Zhao Hai didn’t want to reveal his cards too soon . After all, he still needs to compete for the top spot in the competition .
