Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16073

Chapter 16071 The God of Pride

As the high priest of the Church of Arrogance, he knew all too well the immense changes a deity could bring to a power. If those attacking them were truly backed by a god, then they were in grave danger. Their opponents outnumbered them and seemed stronger; in this situation, defeating them would be incredibly difficult.

A cold glint flashed in the high priest’s eyes. He knew perfectly well that they couldn’t possibly defeat their opponents as they were now. They were well-prepared, perhaps concentrating the power of an entire region to attack them. Under these circumstances, victory was virtually impossible. Therefore, they were acutely aware that if they didn’t fight back, they would all perish.

Thinking of this, the High Priest immediately shouted, “Everyone, cover me as I return to the statue!”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed. They knew what the High Priest was about to do, but after glancing around, they realized that if they didn’t fight, they would have no chance. So they responded in unison, and then, protecting the High Priest, they rushed towards the statue of the God of Pride.

The Blood Slaughter Sect members also noticed their movements and immediately understood their objective. They knew very well that they couldn’t let them pass. The Blood Slaughter Sect had experienced far too many battles; they knew very well that some statues weren’t just for show, but could actually be used in combat. The fact that the enemy was rushing towards the statue with all their might during such a fierce battle meant that the statue was definitely not simple and might also be usable in combat. If that was the case, then they absolutely couldn’t let them pass. Therefore,

the Kingdom-level experts of the Blood Slaughter Sect also charged towards the Kingdom-level experts of the God of Pride, trying to stop them.

However, the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples soon discovered that they couldn’t stop the experts from the Arrogant God Cult. Their strength was incredibly formidable. In one-on-one combat, they were no match for them. Sometimes, even three or five kingdom-level experts from the Blood Slaughter Sect couldn’t defeat a single kingdom-level expert from the Arrogant God Cult. Not to mention that the kingdom-level experts from the Arrogant God Cult always acted as a group. When they charged with all their might, the kingdom-level experts from the Blood Slaughter Sect really had no way to stop them.

The members of the Cult of Arrogance quickly rushed to the statue. Their kingdom-level experts immediately spread out, protecting the high priest. The high priest knelt before the statue of the God of Arrogance and pleaded, “My Lord God, your most faithful servant begs you to save your followers! Heretics are slaughtering them! Please, my Lord God, intervene and kill all the heretics to save your followers!” He then kowtowed three times to the statue.

Unbeknownst to him, as he did so, a pair of eyes in the sky were watching him and the statue. These eyes belonged to none other than Zhao Hai.

The next moment, the statue suddenly moved. A golden light flashed in its eyes, and then the statue slowly began to move. Its head lowered, its legs were put down, and it glanced down at the high priest before raising its head to look at the sky.

The statue was so large that their actions naturally attracted everyone’s attention. The members of the Pride of Arrogance cheered, while the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect merely glanced at it, saying nothing and showing no surprise.

The members of the Pride of Arrogance were puzzled by the lack of panic on the faces of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples. They couldn’t understand why the disciples showed no fear. They had hoped to see panic on the faces of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples, but their calm reaction made them very uncomfortable. They couldn’t understand why the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect weren’t afraid.

At this moment, the statue of the God of Pride began to slowly shrink. Soon, it shrunk to the size of a normal human. However, the stone that composed its body had become incredibly solid and transparent, like crystal—albeit a semi-transparent black crystal.

As the God of Pride shrunk to normal size, it took flight. Just as it was about to attack the kingdom-level experts of the Blood Slaughter Sect, someone suddenly blocked its path. This person was none other than Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai looked at the crystal figure and then smiled slightly, saying, “Your opponent is me.”

The crystal figure looked at Zhao Hai and then suddenly asked, “Who are you?” Its voice was extremely arrogant, and its movements were identical to the God of Pride’s—its head was slightly raised, as if it completely disregarded Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “God of Pride, it’s normal that you don’t recognize me. I don’t want to tell you who I am either. If we are truly destined, we will meet sooner or later.”

The God of Pride was taken aback by Zhao Hai’s words. He then looked at Zhao Hai carefully and said, “You’re not one of us. It’s truly unexpected to encounter a lower realm person standing before us here. How dare someone like you stand before me?”

Zhao Hai laughed and said, “I’m not just going to stand before you; I’m going to defeat you. You don’t really think you’re so great, do you? You gods of the upper realm seem to have never taken us seriously. But once I’ve dealt with you, you’ll all behave.”

“Have you encountered other gods?” The God of Pride asked curiously upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words. “Who did you encounter? Gluttony? Envy?”

Looking at the God of Arrogance, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile. He then said, “Why should I tell you?”

“Hahahaha, you’re very interesting, truly very interesting. You, a mere mortal, dare to speak to me like that? I really don’t know whether to call you bold or ignorant,”

Zhao Hai laughed. “I’ve never been bold, nor ignorant. The reason I dare stand before you is because I’ve made thorough preparations. Fine, I’ve said enough. I want to see just how strong you really are, that you dare to look down on me so much.”

“Hahahaha, pitiful mortal from the lower realm, you know nothing of power, but you’ll soon find out.” After saying this, the God of Arrogance pointed at Zhao Hai and said in a deep voice, “You’re nothing but a dog.”

With these words, Zhao Hai felt a very strange power suddenly enter his body, attempting to alter his physical structure, seemingly trying to turn him into a dog.

Zhao Hai smiled slightly. He knew this was the God of Pride’s attack. He didn’t make any special moves; such an attack was useless against him. With a simple shift of his own power, he completely neutralized the God of Pride’s power.

Seeing Zhao Hai still standing there unharmed, the God of Pride’s expression changed slightly. Then, he stared intently at Zhao Hai and said, “I didn’t expect you to have some strength.”

Zhao Hai smiled slightly, looking at the God of Pride, and then said, “Is this your attack? Words become law? But such attacks are useless against me.”

“Pride is like a venomous snake; it will eventually devour you completely.” The God of Pride stared intently at Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai smiled slightly and then said, “I told you, such attacks are useless against me.” Just now, another attack followed. Zhao Hai felt as if a snake was coiling around him, but such attacks were truly useless against him.

The God of Arrogance stared intently at Zhao Hai, then spoke, “I truly never expected that someone from the lower realm could cultivate to such a level. You are truly remarkable, but unfortunately, you must die today.” With that, the God of Arrogance vanished. When he reappeared, he was already throwing a punch at Zhao Hai’s back. The punch was incredibly fast; by the time it appeared, the fist was already close to Zhao Hai’s back.

His fist pierced through Zhao Hai’s body, but Zhao Hai’s form shattered like a bubble; it was merely a phantom image of Zhao Hai.

At this moment, Zhao Hai’s voice came from behind the God of Arrogance: “Your speed is too slow. If this is all the strength you have, then I really have no interest in playing with you any longer.”

The God of Arrogance immediately turned around to look behind him, only to find Zhao Hai standing a foot behind him, quietly watching him. The God of Arrogance’s expression changed again. He then turned to look at Zhao Hai and said, “Indeed impressive. Alright, it seems I have to get serious.”

The God of Arrogance waved his hand, and in the next moment, countless orbs of light flew straight towards Zhao Hai. These orbs of light were all white and looked inconspicuous, like ordinary energy orbs.

However, when Zhao Hai saw those orbs of light, his expression became somewhat solemn. Then he said, “Not bad.” After speaking, Zhao Hai also waved his hand, and in the next moment, countless runes flew out from his hand. These runes directly met the orbs of light, and then the runes and light orbs disappeared together.

Zhao Hai’s intense focus on these orbs of light stemmed from their complexity. Each orb represented a different law of power; the number of orbs corresponded to the number of different laws, each far from simple. Any strike of these laws upon a Kingdom-level expert from the Blood Slaughter Sect would be fatal, regardless of their resistance.

Most importantly, these orbs could lock onto targets, meaning there was no way to dodge; one had to take the hit head-on. And if you dared to take it head-on, you were doomed. This was only possible because of Zhao Hai; any other member of the Blood Slaughter Sect would have perished long ago, likely during the God of Arrogance’s first attack, and wouldn’t have come to this.
