Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16035

Chapter 16033: Ten Years

In the endless void, a giant serpent was winding its way forward. This serpent was none other than the Ouroboros of the Blood Slaughter Sect. Ten years had passed since the Blood Slaughter Sect had incorporated the Prajna Temple and several other sects into its ranks. During these ten years, the Blood Slaughter Sect had not continued its expansion. Because Zhao Hai still took the warning from the long-haired woman very seriously, they had been focusing on improving the strength of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples while also assimilating the other sects. Now, the entire Blood Slaughter Sect was a unified entity. Everyone had an absolute sense of belonging to the Blood Slaughter Sect. They no longer cared which sect they belonged to before; they were all now members of the Blood Slaughter Sect.

Of course, the Blood Slaughter Sect members were not idle during these ten years. People like Wen Wenhai had all reached the Kingdom level, and the Kingdom level experts who had joined the Blood Slaughter Sect from various regions had also made further progress in their strength. Although they were still at the Kingdom level, their strength was no longer comparable to that of ordinary Kingdom level experts. Most importantly, all of them had their own magic weapons, and they were even natal magic weapons. These magic weapons were all tailor-made for them, so they were very comfortable using them.

The ordinary people in each region, after ten years of cultivation, have now reached the Royal Palace level. Ten years to reach the Royal Palace level—if Yang Qingyu and the others knew this, they’d probably laugh themselves to death. Yang Qingyu reached the Royal Palace level in just over a year. But don’t forget, the Blood Slaughter Sect doesn’t have a cultivation system where you have to believe in someone to receive rewards. Those ordinary people reached the Royal Palace level thanks to the cultivation techniques and various benefits provided by the Blood Slaughter Sect. Such strength would be considered a top expert in many small sects in various regions, but in the Blood Slaughter Sect, they’re just ordinary people, even among the older ones. The stronger ones have already reached the Royal City level.

Now, almost all the elders in the Blood Slaughter Sect have reached the Kingdom level. Ten years is a long time for the Blood Slaughter Sect; they can accomplish so much. Their strength is now terrifyingly high. They can now deal with any region without any reconnaissance; they can simply sweep through.

The Blood Slaughter Sect no longer uses large magical artifacts much; they feel it’s unnecessary. The disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect are already extremely powerful, and using large artifacts might even hinder their performance. Most importantly, all disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect possess Thousand-Machine Stars (ordinary disciples use Smaller Thousand-Machine Stars), which are now used to assist them in combat. Furthermore, the alien race originally assigned to the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples has all been taken back by the sect. These disciples no longer need them; they all have their own commonly used magical artifacts, and with the Thousand-Machine Stars aiding them in battle, there’s no need for aliens. The aliens have now become official disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect and have begun cultivating; they certainly cannot be subservient to other disciples anymore.

Within the entire Blood Slaughter Sect, only the alien cavalry haven’t been dealt with. The aliens and cultivators of the alien cavalry have long since become one; years of fighting side-by-side have made them consider each other their closest confidants, so they cannot be separated.

The Blood Slaughter Sect disciples used to wear battle armor, but that armor is now obsolete. Their strength has reached a point where they no longer need it. Of course, this doesn’t mean they don’t wear armor at all; they still do, but the armor they wear now is light armor, serving only a defensive purpose. It can no longer aid them in combat as it used to, because there’s no longer a need for it.

When your strength is sufficient, you become the best weapon in the world. Things like battle armor are completely unnecessary. A decent suit of armor for defense and a decent offensive weapon are enough; nothing else is required.

Perhaps the Blood Slaughter Sect is now simplifying its methods. They had so many techniques before because their strength wasn’t enough; now they don’t need them. The Blood Slaughter Sect’s path is somewhat similar to the Sword Sect—a single sword strike can break all techniques. Although the Blood Slaughter Sect hasn’t reached that level yet, their current fighting style is changing in that direction, and all of this is actually influenced by Zhao Hai.

The Blood Slaughter Sect disciples had no idea just how strong Zhao Hai was. They only knew that even if all the kingdom-level experts in the sect attacked Zhao Hai together, they wouldn’t be a match for him. Zhao Hai was simply too powerful. Someone as strong as Zhao Hai could use every word and action as a weapon; magical artifacts were completely useless against him.

Because of this, the Blood Slaughter Sect members were all emulating Zhao Hai. They believed that magical artifacts were merely external forces, and only one’s own strength mattered. Therefore, they were all minimizing their use of magical artifacts, focusing primarily on enhancing their own power.

Meanwhile, the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect were also doing something else: transforming their cultivation techniques into runes. The Blood Slaughter Sect disciples had all witnessed Zhao Hai’s actions and were familiar with his theories. Zhao Hai’s theory was quite simple: it told everyone that everything in the world could be transformed into runes. The Blood Slaughter Sect disciples agreed with this, so they were slowly transforming their techniques and cultivation into runes. Unfortunately, they hadn’t succeeded yet.

Now, in the Blood Slaughter Sect’s main conference room, Zhao Hai sat amidst many elders. Standing on the podium, he looked at the crowd below and suddenly smiled, saying, “It seems we can’t hold meetings here anymore; there are too many people. From now on, we’ll hold meetings directly in the Real Illusion Realm or via teleconference. Otherwise, this conference room will just keep getting bigger and bigger.”

Everyone laughed at Zhao Hai’s words. Zhao Hai smiled slightly at their reactions and continued, “The reason I called everyone here today is to discuss the sect’s next steps. The sect hasn’t expanded externally for ten years. During these ten years, we’ve been consolidating our foundation, making our sect stronger. Looking at your current strength, you can see that these ten years haven’t been wasted.”

Everyone remained silent, watching Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai continued, “Next, we should also prepare for expansion…” “That’s the matter. We need to expand our sect’s strength as much as possible. But when new people join the sect, the sect’s overall strength will decline. We also need to make sure those newcomers catch up with our pace. Anyway, we have enough time. So my idea is that our next action is to swallow up one region, then stop, digest that region first, and then attack another region. What do you all think?” After

listening to Zhao Hai’s words, everyone fell into deep thought. After a while, Wen Wenhai finally spoke up: “I agree with the boss’s method. We don’t need to rush. We can take it one step at a time. This way, we have more time to better understand these regions, so that we won’t encounter any problems.”

Everyone understood Wen Wenhai’s meaning. The long-haired woman’s warning to them meant that their opponent this time was definitely not simple. They had to take every step very carefully, otherwise, there might really be danger.

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “That’s true. So we don’t need to rush our expansion; we can take it slowly. That woman warned us that we would be in danger, which means we will encounter enemies who might pose a threat. If an enemy can pose a threat, their strength must be extraordinary, and they are very likely related to their realm. I’ve always believed that the realm that woman resides in is our upper realm, which means the danger she speaks of might also come from the upper realm. This is why I’m not in a hurry to ascend. We could actually ascend now, but I haven’t for two reasons: first, I want to further improve the strength of the sect’s disciples and increase their numbers, which would benefit us after ascension; second, I want to properly confront those dangers from the upper realm, to see where they come from, what kind of danger they are, and to learn something from them.” “Regarding the Upper Realm, let’s see what their cultivation methods and combat styles are like. Although what’s brought down from the Upper Realm is likely a simplified version, revealing less detail, it’s still our only way to understand it. Therefore, we can’t rush to ascend now.”

Everyone nodded. Zhao Hai looked at them and smiled, saying, “As you all know, I’m a very cautious person and don’t like taking risks. I prefer to understand the enemy first, then make thorough preparations before proceeding. As the art of war says, ‘Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.’ We currently know ourselves but not our enemy. If we ascend now, we’ll at best fight to a draw, a 50/50 chance. But if we understand them even a little more, our chances of winning increase. That’s why we must stay here.” Everyone nodded, agreeing with Zhao Hai’s reasoning.

Zhao Hai looked at everyone and said, “The reason our Blood Slaughter Sect has come this far is because we’ve been cautious. Those who weren’t careful are all dead now, while we, the cautious ones, have survived to the end. So I hope you all remember this: no matter what, we must never be too aggressive; it won’t do us any good.”

Everyone responded again. Zhao Hai continued, “I heard you’ve all been converting your cultivation and techniques into runes recently? That’s excellent. I’ve been thinking about this myself. I hope we can use runes as a medium to connect us all, making us a unified whole. If we can achieve that, we will be invincible. I truly refuse to believe that anyone in this world can withstand a full-force attack from all of us!” (End of Chapter)
