Chapter 1902: Earth-element Ability

This was the first time that Zhao Hai used his wood-element ability to comprehend the cultivation method of a tree. It felt very strange. Just as Zhao Hai wanted to comprehend more, he heard Caiers voice, Young Master, youve been in the tree for three days. Do you want to seclude? If so, you can to go the s.p.a.ce.

Zhao Hai stared for a moment. When he recovered, he asked, Three days? How could it be three days? Its only been an hour since I entered the tree.

Caier replied, Its been three days. When you entered the tree, it seemed like your thinking process slowed down. I thought something happened to you. But there were no changes to the s.p.a.ce. I only called you when your thinking returned to normal.

Zhao Hai couldnt help but be stunned. He didnt expect this to happen. As he was confused, he asked, You said my thinking has slowed down. What happened? I feel completely normal.

At this time, Laura answered, Brother Hai, did you do anything that could slow down your thoughts? Lauras tone was somewhat anxious. This was because they didnt know why Zhao Hais thoughts suddenly turned sluggish. It wouldnt be good if they couldnt see what it was.

As Zhao Hai thought about it, he said, I didnt do anything special. I only used my wood-element ability to enter the tree. Then I began to sense how the tree cultivators. Other than that, I did nothing.

Laura frowned. Then she left the villa and went to the Universal Scanner and ordered, a.n.a.lyze Brother Hais situation. See if there are any problems.

The Universal Scanner lit up several times before a prompt was heard, Host has no issues. The reason for the Hosts thinking becoming slow is his integration to the tree. Theres no need to worry.

Hearing the scanner, Laura was relieved. Then she told Zhao Hai, Brother Hai, it seems to be caused by you integrating into the senses of the tree. This warped your perception and made your thinking slow. This explains why you thought that it was normal when it wasnt.

Zhao Hai nodded, then he moved and came out of the tree. It was now daytime. Zhao Hai also understood the difference between tree demons and ordinary trees. It should be their thinking speed.

Tree demons were like people, so their thinking speed was naturally the same. However, trees werent. They think very slowly to the point of being unbearable. Zhao Hai thought that he was only inside the tree for an hour when in reality he had stayed inside for three days.

Why tree demons were able to think as quickly as people, Zhao Hai doesnt know. He has no intentions of knowing either. He didnt come to the Forestsea Realm to study this topic.

After Zhao Hai left the huge tree, he immediately called Caier, Caier, whats the current situation?

Caier smiled and said, Young Master can rest a.s.sured. Weve already discovered several hundred partic.i.p.ants. We also have a grasp of their locations. As for the rest, its highly probable that they were already killed.

Zhao Hai nodded, Continue monitoring their location. I have already rested for three days. Its time to find these people.

Caier complied as a projection appeared in front of Zhao Hai. The projection was a map of the Forestsea Realm. There were red dots on certain areas of the map. Naturally, these red dots were the partic.i.p.ants of the trial.

Zhao Hai wasnt afraid that the projection would be seen by the people of the Soaring Dragon Realm. This was because the projection was a spirit projection, only Zhao Hai could see it.

Having a projection was different from using the s.p.a.ce. When Zhao Hai uses the s.p.a.ce, it would produce an unusual fluctuation. If he used it too many times, the secret of the s.p.a.ce might be discovered by curious individuals. Meanwhile, a projection uses spiritual force. Other people couldnt see it. People would only think that Zhao Hai was using a spiritual force technique. They wouldnt pay special attention to it.

Zhao Hai looked at the projection and found the cultivator nearest to him. With a flash, he moved quickly towards his target. Zhao Hai now understood why there were still a lot of cultivators present even though three days had pa.s.sed. Everyone was just too far away from each other. It was difficult to meet in a short period of time.

However, this wasnt difficult for Zhao Hai. He knew where everyone was. He could hunt them down whenever he liked.

As he caught up with his target, Zhao Hai called Caier, Caier, how is the Freedom Alliance doing? Did the nine super sects do something?

Caier shook her head and said, Nothing happened. The Freedom Alliance is still doing well. The nine super sects didnt make any unnecessary actions. Before any information about you comes back, they wont make any moves.

Zhao Hai nodded and said, Thats good. It seems like the nine super sects are fulfilling their promise. As he said that, Zhao Hai changed his route. He kept meandering through his path to avoid the beasts. Meeting beasts would slow him down.

After two hours, Zhao Hai finally met the target. The opposite party also detected Zhao Hai. Neither chose to leave. This was because both knew that the only way they would leave this realm was to kill other people. And only then can their realms enter the Soaring Dragon Realm.

Zhao Hai didnt use all of his strength in the battle. It took him nearly half an hour before finis.h.i.+ng his opponent. After killing his target, Zhao Hai immediately left to look for the next.

In one day, Zhao Hai was able to hunt down ten cultivators. When it became dark, Zhao Hai hid inside a tree once more. But this time, he didnt dare mix his thoughts with the tree. It wouldnt be good if he was out for three days once more.

Although the forest had a lot of beasts, these beasts wouldnt topple down trees for no reason. Therefore, it was safest to stay inside trees when night came.

The next morning, Zhao Hai came out of the tree and looked at the map. He discovered that more than ten cultivators died the night before. It was clear that they had been hunted down by the realms beasts.

Zhao Hai didnt care about their loss as he moved towards his target. For the next seven days, this has been Zhao Hais routine. He would hunt people down during the day and then he would hide inside a tree when night comes. He had no plans of entering the s.p.a.ce. This was because his golden spiritual force would act up once in a while, informing Zhao Hai that the realm was being consistently swept by a strong spiritual force.

Seven days pa.s.s by and the cultivators inside the Forestsea Realm have reduced to less than a hundred. However, those who were left couldnt be underestimated. All of them were roughly equal to Zhao Hai in cultivation. They were at the peak of the Transcending Tribulation Stage. There were even some who held the strength equivalent to an Immortal Stage expert. There were also people who held powerful artifacts as well as unique skills. To be able to survive inside the Forestsea Realm for ten days meant that they didnt rely on their luck.

On the eleventh day that Zhao Hai arrived in the Forestsea Realm, Zhao Hai pursued another target. However, this target was different. Others would roam the forest constantly to look for enemies. Meanwhile, this person continued to stay in place. This person was currently on a mountain. Moreover, it was one of the few treeless mountains in the Forestsea Realm.

The entire mountain was full of rocks. There might be weeds growing on it, but there were no trees at all. This person stayed on this mountain for ten straight days.

Naturally, Zhao Hai didnt underestimate his enemys strength just because they didnt leave the mountain. This person not only killed four cultivators who arrived at the mountain, he also wounded five immortal-level beasts. In his hand was a greatsword with powerful strength. Although he has yet to arrive at the immortal stage, Zhao Hai felt that with his greatsword, the person has the same fighting strength as an immortal stage expert.

The person with the greatsword was Zhao Hais target this time. Before long, Zhao Hai arrived at the rocky mountain. He used his spiritual force to scan the mountain but was unable to detect anyone. This caused Zhao Hai to be shocked.

The s.p.a.ces map clearly showed that the cultivator was still on the mountain. However, Zhao Hais spiritual force failed to sense the other party.

Zhao Hai didnt immediately rush up the mountain to understand what was going on. He stood quietly outside and continued to sweep it with his spiritual force. However, despite numerous attempts, he didnt find anything. This caused Zhao Hais frown to be deeper. The longer this went on, the more Zhao Hai understood how those cultivators and immortal beasts were defeated by the person on the mountain. He couldnt be found at all. He would have the initiative to attack. With this kind of stealth and strength, it wouldnt be impossible to kill or injure an immortal expert.

But why cant he be found? This caused Zhao Hai to be confused. Then Zhao Hais eyes lit up when he realized something. The only explanation why the other party couldnt be detected was because they have a divergent ability.

No mistake, it was a special ability. Like Zhao Hais ability to disappear into a tree to escape the beasts, this cultivator should have an earth-element ability that allows him to disappear in the mountain. And with the properties of the mountain, it was the most suitable location for him to hide in. This explains why he stayed in the mountain for the last ten days. This was the best battlefield for him.

However, without using the s.p.a.ce, how could he find the earth-element ability user? Zhao Hai couldnt help but frown.
