Chapter 1280-1281

Chapter 1280 - Destination, Six Realms Battlefield

Zhao Hai was currently sitting inside a ship along with Xiong Li and the others. Ma Rulong was also with them. They had just left Machine Field Planet and were headed to a certain location. Other people were clueless about their destination. However, Zhao Hai and the others knew that they were going to the Six Realms Battlefield!

With a serious expression, Ma Rulong looked at Zhao Hai and the others and said, "Little Hai, you should all be very careful. The Six Realms Battlefield isn't like any other place. All who go there are experienced experts. Nobody is easy to deal with. Don't trust anyone besides those from the Machine Field. Although it's only you six that are going, once you arrive there you will be sent to a 50-person team. Your Commander will be someone named Buddhist Warrior Yuan. He is originally a member of the Jingang Sect of the Cultivation Realm. However, he offended a powerful elder of his sect so was kicked out. Additionally, that elder posted a bounty on his head. He didn't have a choice but to run to the Machine Field. In his stay here, he managed to contribute greatly to the realm. He is nicknamed the One-eyed Buddhist because he lost one eye when he was chased down by his Sect. He's a strong expert and a friend of mine. I've asked him to take care of you."[1]

Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Thank you Team Leader. I also heard about the One-eyed Buddhist. He's a famous character in the Machine Field. However, he seems to have disappeared. People thought that he'd been assassinated by someone. I didn't expect him to be in the Six Realm Battlefield. And it looks like he's been there for some time"

Ma Rulong nodded, "Correct. He's been there for several years already. Although he's only a Captain of a small team, nobody dared to underestimate him in the Six Realms Battlefield."

Zhao Hai nodded. At this time Xiong Li said, "Team Leader, is Buddhist Warrior Yuan really that powerful?"

Ma Rulong nodded and said, "Of course he's powerful. Yuan isn't an Ascender. His mother and father were commoners on the planet where Jingang Sect is. He managed to learn a minor version of the sect's cultivation method when he was young. Because of his talent and strength, he became suitable for the sect's Cultivation Method. It didn't take long for him to become an inner disciple of the sect."

After speaking up to this point, Ma Rulong sighed. Then he looked at everyone and continued, "You should have seen the Cultivation Realm's situation. And even if you haven't seen it, you should have heard of it. When Yuan became an Inner Disciple of the Jingang Sect, the status of his parents naturally improved. They were admitted to the sect and were given a residence. However, there were some from the Jingang Sect who looked down on them and would spread some baseless humors once in a while. Fortunately, Yuan's parents knew their place, so they endured."

Zhao Hai and the others could almost guess what happened next, but they didn't speak and just listened quietly. Ma Rulong went on, "One day, Yuan came home and heard that his mother had died. Yuan looked at his mother's remains and saw that his mother was killed. He asked his father what happened. Initially unwilling to tell Yuan about what happened, his father finally relented and told Yuan everything. When Yuan's mother went to fetch some water, she unintentionally spilled some of it on an Inner Disciple of the Jingang Sect. This Inner Disciple got angry and killed Yuan's mother. And it was known that this Inner Disciple was a grandson of a sect elder."

"Yuan was a very filial son, so how could he bear this injustice? But since he still had control over himself, he didn't immediately look for revenge. Instead, he endured and waited for an opportunity. Finally, Yuan was given the chance to kill that person during a sect mission. Naturally, he wouldn't declare that he killed the man. He just said that the man was killed while doing the mission."

"However, the sect elder didn't believe Yuan that easily. And after his circumstances were found out, Yuan ran away. His father was unable to escape and was burned alive by that elder. Then the elder began to offer a bounty for his capture. Yuan could no longer stay in the Cultivation Realm so he went to the other realms. But with his strength, it was difficult for Yuan to ensure his own safety. He was afraid that the other realms would capture him in order to gain favor with the Jingang Sect. In the end, Yuan ended up in the Machine Field. He gave the Machine Field his Cultivation Method in exchange for protection. The Machine Field's higher-ups agreed and he stayed in the Machine Field since then."

"Because of his hatred towards the Jingang Sect, he has always been merciless towards the people from the Cultivation Realm. But since he only learned a part of the Jingang Sect's Cultivation Method, his control over magic artifacts wasn't very good. However, this fellow is still very strong. In addition to cultivating the Jingang Sect's method, he also placed great attention to his body. This caused his defense to be very formidable. After years of refining his body, Yuan became a human beast. This allowed him to get positive results in the Six Realms Battlefield."

"I met him in the Six Realms Battlefield. At that time, I was one of his men. While on a mission, he was seriously injured while the rest of the team were killed. Only the two of us were left. I took him back with me as we were being hunted. I hid and hid until reinforcements arrived. After that, we became lifelong friends. But let me tell you this first, you should listen to him properly. That fellow's temperament isn't very good."

Zhao Hai and the others nodded. Zhao Hai smiled at Ma Rulong and said, "Team Leader, rest assured. We're honest and good-natured people. We will never cause any trouble."

Ma Rulong snorted and said, "Kid, you had never been honest. But fortunately, your temperament is compatible with his. You're kind to your allies and ruthless to your enemies, that fellow is the same."

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Good man. Haha. Working with him will certainly be great." Ma Rulong looked at Zhao Hai and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He doesn't know what to say.

The ship proceeded smoothly before stopping two days later. Much to Zhao Hai's surprise, the ship's location wasn't that far away from Dark Demon Planet. There were many factions on this planet and it wasn't any different to any other place in the Machine Field. This planet was called Apte.

Zhao Hai heard about Apte Planet before. To be honest, he just ignored it at that time. He didn't expect the ship to stop at this place. And much to Zhao Hai's surprise, the ship didn't park outside the planet. Instead, it directly flew inside towards a fairly big island on the planet.

This island was the territory of a family on the planet. This family was the strongest influence in Atpe. This island along with other surrounding islands were under this family's control. The ships coming and going from this place looked very normal, much like the civilian ship that Zhao Hai and the others were in. Because of this, the ship where Zhao Hai and the others were in didn't look suspicious.

The ship entered a secret base upon reaching the island. After landing, Ma Rulong led Zhao Hai and the others out of the ship. It must be said that without the silver needles Zhao Hai wouldn't have known that this was Apte Planet.

The group followed Ma Rulong out of the ship and soon discovered that they were in an underground cavern. This cavern had plenty of robots both active and inactive. They numbered approximately 1000.

Ma Rulong looked at these robots and then whispered, "Don't underestimate these robots. Inside their bodies are small nuclear bombs. If all of these robots explode at the same time, then even Little Hai wouldn't be able to escape. You're guaranteed to die on the spot."

As soon as they heard Ma Rulong, Zhao Hai and the others couldn't help but be surprised. They didn't expect these robots to be this deadly. If these robots explode at the same time, the damage they can inflict would certainly be dangerous. Zhao Hai was even certain that they could destroy the entire planet.

Ma Rulong didn't mind the robots as he walked towards a cave. This cave was enormous. It had rocks and stalagmites everywhere that were arranged beautifully.

However, Zhao Hai wasn't in the mood to admire the sight. This was because he discovered that besides the robots, there were also a lot of Mages and Warriors protecting the place. There were about a hundred of them. All of them were hidden with some even hiding behind magic formations.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but look at Ma Rulong. But Ma Rulong's expression made Zhao Hai somewhat puzzled. It seems like Ma Rulong wasn't aware of the existence of these people.

Before long, the group arrived at their destination. Then Ma Rulong looked at Zhao Hai and the others and said, "I can only accompany you up to here. Go on ahead. Someone will receive you on the other side."

Zhao Hai and the others nodded as they stepped on the transmission formation. Ma Rulong looked at Zhao Hai and the others until a white light flashed. The next moment, Zhao Hai and the others were no longer in sight."

Seeing the transmission formation empty, Ma Rulong sighed as he muttered, "Kid, you need to survive."

….

There was a flash of light inside a huge metal room, then Zhao Hai and the others appeared inside it. Upon appearing, ZHao Hai and the others couldn't help but stare. This was because this scene was very familiar. A giant room that was made entirely of metal, numerous magic formations on the walls, ceiling, and floor - Zhao Hai couldn't help but feel that time had flown backwards. It was like he ascended once more.

Chapter 1281 - Shocking Discovery

It wasn't only Zhao Hai who felt this, the same was true with Xiong Li and the others. The place where they ascended looked almost the same as this. So upon seeing the metal room, they were also surprised.

After some time, Li Kuangren muttered and said, "What's this? Did we ascend once more?"

Li Kuangren's words caused Zhao Hai and the others to recover. Then they looked all around in confusion.

At this time, a door appeared on a wall before several Mages and Warriors appeared. Leading the group was an old Mage. When the Mage saw Zhao Hai and the others, he laughed and said, "Everyone, welcome to hell!" His laughter sounded like an insane grandmother's laugh. It was chilling.

Zhao Hai and the others looked at each other as they didn't understand what was going on. The Mage then said, "Come with me." Then he turned around and walked out. Naturally, Zhao Hai and the others followed behind.

Outside the metallic room was a long corridor. What surprised Zhao Hai was that this corridor was also made of metal. It was also wide enough to allow two people to walk side by side.

After walking through this corridor for about 150 steps, Zhao Hai and the others arrived at a hall made out of metal. The hall was about 10 thousand square meters. What attracted Zhao Hai and the others' attention was that everything in the hall was made entirely out of metal. The table, chairs, pillars, walls, everything was metal.

There were a lot of Mages and Warriors in the hall who were resting, groups of two or three were chatting, and there were also people just sitting down and drinking tea. There were also a lot of robots in the hall that provided services.

Upon seeing these people, Zhao Hai's pupils shrunk. The bodies of each Mage and Warrior exuded a strong killing aura. One could see at a glance that these people were walking the line between life and death. Such people would be very difficult opponents.

While Zhao Hai was looking at these people, they were also sizing Zhao Hai and the others up. Their gazes weren't very friendly, there was even a hint of hostility.

Then at this moment, a person in the hall attracted Zhao Hai's attention. This person was just standing in the hall yet he appeared like an iron tower. This person had dark skin, a bald head, and a scar on his face that spanned from his left ear and through his left eye. This scar made the man look terrifying.

This man was very tall with his height surpassing 2.5 meters. He towered among everyone in the hall. He was a crane among chickens. His eye was currently closed as he stood there like a statue.

But when Zhao Hai saw him, his eyes involuntarily flashed a cold light. This was because the man's killing aura was very strong, which aroused Zhao Hai's own killing aura. Zhao Hai already knew who this man was, he must be Buddhist Warrior Yuan.

And sensing Zhao Hai's gaze, Yuan opened his eye and looked at Zhao Hai. Naturally, he only had his right eye since his left was gone. A cold light flashed through his right eye. He obviously felt Zhao Hai's killing aura.

Seeing that Yuan was looking at him, Zhao Hai just smiled as he withdrew his entire killing aura, showing complete control over it. Then he gave Yuan a salute.

The other people in the hall couldn't help but gawk when they saw Zhao Hai's performance. Everyone in the hall simultaneously made an impressed "Hoh!" sound.

These Mages and Warriors were surprised to see Zhao Hai's attitude towards Yuan. Buddhist Warrior Yuan was an ominous presence in the Six Realms battlefield for many years. The battles he had fought easily reached the thousands with dozens of those being life and death battles. But even if he was heavily injured in those battles, he always returned. It was said that he was as resilient as a cockroach.

Because of this, Yuan had the strongest killing aura here. Most rookies who come here would urinate under Yuan's killing aura. But Zhao Hai actually received it with a calm approach. This showed Zhao Hai's strength.

When Yuan saw Zhao Hai's attitude, his eyes lit up. Then he walked over, his steps were very heavy. With each step Yuan made, the ground sounded like drums.

Yuan arrived in front of Zhao Hai and the others, completely ignoring the old Mage. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Are you Zhao Hai?"

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "I am. Is Mister Buddhist Warrior Yuan? This one has seen mister."

Yuan burst out laughing, then he said, "Good, good. Truly a man praised by Ma Rulong. I also heard about what you did. Great job. You can't be lenient towards those fellows from the Cultivation Realm. Well done, well done!"

Zhao Hi smiled faintly and said, "It's not a big deal. I just killed someone from the Cultivation Realm as well as the Devil Realm."

Yuan laughed once more when he heard this. Then he patted Zhao Hai's shoulder as he turned to the old Mage and said, "I'll be taking care of them."

The Mage was evidently scared of Yuan. So when he heard him, he immediately nodded and said, "Please. The command has already been sent down for them to be sent to you. However, don't forget to give them their recorders."

Yuan nodded and said, "I know. How could this Yuan forget about that. Alright, let's go." Then he led Zhao Hai and the others towards a machine beside the hall.

This machine looked like an iron box with no special quality to it. Yuan stood in front of the machine and then said, "Walk in one by one and don't move."

Zhao Hai nodded and entered the machine first. As soon as he entered, the machine flashed with red light. This red light formed a flat plane on top of the machine and descended, scanning Zhao Hai from head to toe.

After the red light vanished, a metal wall in front of Zhao Hai opened up. Inside the opening was a wristband.

Zhao Hai extended his hand and then took the wristband before wearing it. The size of the wristband was just right. And it wasn't heavy at all nor did it feel cold. It was actually comfortable to wear.

When Zhao Hai came out of the machine, Xiong Li followed in. The process went the same as Zhao Hai. Before long, everyone had a wristband on.

After this, Yuan looked at Zhao Hai and the others and said, "Don't lose this thing. These things record your contribution during battles. These contributions will become points that you can exchange with anything you want. Alright let's go. From now on, you're part of my team." Zhao Hai and the others nodded. Then they followed Yuan out of the hall. When they left the hall, they were once again inside a corridor. But as they walked, Zhao Hai and the others discovered that this corridor was more than a kilometer long.

A metal door was at the end of the corridor. When the group walked towards the door, it automatically opened. Then Yuan flew out with Zhao Hai and the others quickly following behind.

It was at this point that Zhao Hai and the others discovered that they were headed towards a spatial rift. The metal door actually connects to a spatial rift.

This rift wasn't very big, it was only about three meters high and wide enough to let two people in side by side. Yuan didn't hesitate and continued flying forward.

Zhao Hai and the others hastily followed behind. Before long, they appeared in front of another metal door. A red light flashed from the door and scanned everyone before it opened.

Yuan led Zhao Hai and the others across another corridor until they arrived at another metal hall. But this metal hall was much larger than the previous one. There were also more people here. The mixed sounds of chatting and quarrelling was heard in this hall.

At this time, they were surrounded by a group of people. The group had three Mages and four Warriors. One of them turned to Yuan and said, "Captain, is this them? Where's Zhao Hai? Let me see him. Hahaha. He's amazing, even daring to kill people from the Cultivation Realm. He's certainly very strong." The person who spoke wasn't very tall but it was clear that he was very strong. He had messy hair and his skin was pale gold. He wore worn-out Warrior clothing but his body exuded a valiant aura.

But as this person was talking about him, Zhao Hai was stunned. He was the only one who was stunned in their group. This was because the Space had just issued a shocking prompt!

"Host has entered a subspace made by another person. Host may be discovered. Proceeding to disable tracking function. Tracking function has been disabled. The host can now move freely in this subspace."

This prompt caused Zhao Hai to be startled and coldly sweat. Although the prompt was short, its contents were extremely terrifying. Zhao Hai was very clear that even if they were still inside a metallic room, they were already in the Six Realms Battlefield. And now the prompt just pointed out that the Six Realms Battlefield was a subspace that another person has made. This was an existence that was similar to his Space. This was scary information.

And as he thought about it more, Zhao Hai was even more startled. The Six Realms Battlefield had an entrance in every realm. When he first thought about this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but feel strange. It's too much of a coincidence. But now, upon knowing that the Six Realms Battlefield was someone else's subspace, Zhao Hai knew that this was done on purpose.

The owner of the subspace opened a passage in every realm, enabling other people to enter the battlefield and kill each other.

But what was his purpose for doing this? The person who made this subspace must be an expert of extraordinary strength. There might not be such an expert in the entire World of Cultivation. The strongest person in the World of Cultivation were those legendary Immortals. However, Zhao Hai haven't heard of Immortals having their own subspaces. Moreover, from what Ma Rulong said, the Six Realms Battlefield was enormous.

If nobody from the World of Cultivation was strong enough to do this, then who did it? Where did he come from? Why did he make the Six Realms Battlefield? What was his goal?

All of these issues passed by Zhao Hai's mind, making him absent-minded. At this time, Zhao Hai felt a pat on his shoulder. Zhao Hai was just about to retaliate when he noticed that it was Yuan.

Zhao Hai quickly recovered. Yuan looked at Zhao Hai in confusion as he asked, "Little Hai, what happened? Why are you sweating so much? Is there a problem?"

Zhao Hai shook his head before he replied, "I'm fine. But I just thought of something so I was somewhat distracted. Captain, are these our brothers?" Zhao Hai also noticed the group that approached them.

Yuan nodded and then introduced everyone to Zhao Hai and the others. The Warrior who spoke first was surnamed Wu, Wu Yang. His metal-element body refining technique was said to be formidable. He was one of the experts in Yuan's team.

The others were from Great Families of the Machine Field. In the Machine Field, the majority of practitioners were from External Halls that were filled with Ascenders. But in the Six Realms Battlefield, Ascenders were very rare. People sent here were mostly descendants of Great Families or Core Members of the family.

Zhao Hai and the others exchanged greetings with the other team members. After that, Yuan led everyone out of the metallic hall. Then after passing another corridor, Zhao Hai and the others went out of a metal door. Upon passing through the door, the group were met with the view of a forest. Zhao Hai and the others were currently flying above the forest..

Although Zhao Hai wanted to find out about the secret of the Six Realms Battlefield, he knew that it was impossible for him with his present strength. He might even bring danger to himself. What he needed to do was pretend that he didn't know anything and just cultivate. He could resume his investigation when he gets stronger.

Because of this, Zhao Hai put the matter on the back of his mind as he inspected his surroundings. He discovered that the environment was indeed very good. Compared to the Cultivation Realm, the spiritual density here was thicker. It was a very good place for cultivation.

The forest where they were in can be called a virgin forest. The forest was so expansive that its end couldn't be seen. Looking at the size of the forest, Zhao Hai couldn't help but feel excited. With a forest this large, there would certainly be unique plants growing inside it. He wanted to explore the place to see if he could find something to send to the Space.

Originally, Zhao Hai wasn't too anxious about upgrading the Space. But when he learned that the Six Realms Battlefield was a subspace of another person, he couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis. He began to think about the security of his Space. If other people can create subspaces like the Six Realms Battlefield, then would it be possible for them to break into the Space? If that was the case, then Zhao Hai's biggest advantage would vanish!
