Zhao Hai stood calmly in front of the universal machine, watching as it sucked the good medicinal herbs from the ground into the machine. Then, his gold coins decreased by a million, and the numbers on the machine began to jump.
This was already the second time he was making a Divine-Level Potion, so he was very familiar with the process. Now everything was prepared, and he only needed to wait for two days before Xu Wanying could become a divine-level expert.
To be honest, Zhao Hai was quite lucky to have accepted Xu Wanying as his subordinate. Xu Wanying's ability to create clones was incredibly powerful; he equaled an entire army by himself. Now that he was about to become a divine-level expert, that was even more impressive, as he would essentially be an army composed of divine-level experts, which was terrifying.
What worried Zhao Hai now was whether the Divine-Level Potion he made could elevate all of Xu Wanying's clones to divine-level. However, he did not know if those clones would also possess realms like Xu Wanying. If those clones had realms too, it would definitely be a good thing for Zhao Hai.
Looking at the continuously changing numbers, Zhao Hai could not help but let out a sigh, murmuring, "I hope there’s enough time."
Berry, who was standing beside him, heard Zhao Hai's words and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, Brother Hai, there will definitely be enough time."
Xu Wanying looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, please rest assured. Wan Ying will definitely help you." Zhao Hai smiled slightly and patted Xu Wanying on the shoulder, saying, "It’s alright, Wan Ying. You don’t need to take it too seriously. You can definitely help me; after all, you are the main force. Who else can match you alone against a thousand? Hahaha! No need to rush. I think the divine race won’t appear on the continent so soon. Even if they do appear, we shouldn’t be afraid of them."
To be honest, Zhao Hai was quite eager to engage with the divine race and see just how powerful they really were. Xu Wanying nodded, but his eyes were still filled with determination. He then looked at Zhao Hai and asked, "Young Master, may I request something from you?"
Zhao Hai was taken aback but then smiled and said, "Go ahead, what is it? Why be so polite with me?" Xu Wanying looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, can you consider raising Shun Yi's level next time? During this period, I feel very comfortable working together with him. If you have other plans, then don’t account for me; your major matters come first."
Zhao Hai laughed heartily and patted Xu Wanying's shoulder, saying, "Alright, don’t be so tense. Even if I become a divine-level expert, I’m still me. If you have anything to say, just tell me. Shun Yi that guy is actually quite good; I find him easy to work with as well. After we finish helping you level up this time, I’ll help him next time."
Xu Wanying was overjoyed and bowed to Zhao Hai, saying, "Thank you, Young Master." Zhao Hai patted his shoulder and said, "Alright, let’s go back inside and have a couple of drinks. There have been too many things happening lately, and we need to relax."
Zhao Hai truly valued Xu Wanying’s recent proposal. Since Xu Wanying had followed him, he had not made any requests; this was the first time, and it wasn’t even for himself but for Shun Yi. This showed that even after becoming a divine-level expert, he had not forgotten his friends. This was exactly what Zhao Hai appreciated, which made him very happy.
After the two entered the space, Zhao Hai asked Meg to prepare some dishes. He and Xu Wanying sat in the restaurant drinking wine. Meanwhile, in various cities of the Pagoda Empire, selected individuals were using Spatial Water to enhance their strength. Some were raised to level eight, and others to level nine.
Those who reached level eight would eventually be promoted to level nine. Zhao Hai had instructed Cai'er to keep an eye on all those who reached level nine.
A ninth-level expert was already considered a figure in the continent. Although these individuals were selected, it was uncertain whether they would do anything excessive after gaining such powerful strength. If they did, Zhao Hai would not be polite.
