Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16109

Chapter 16107 Curiosity

“Hahaha, friend, what an ancient word!” The God of Gluttony suddenly laughed, looking at Zhao Hai and saying, “I was so naive. You still haven’t escaped human thinking. If you continue with this mindset, even if you ascend to our place and meet us, you won’t have a good ending. Don’t you know? Sometimes death is a relief. And you don’t think that there are only humans where we are, do you? You’re too naive.”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I don’t think I can be friends with everyone, nor do I consider everyone a friend. I certainly don’t think that there are only humans where you are. That’s why I haven’t ascended, because I don’t want to live a life worse than death.”

“Hahahaha, you’re a smart man, but I still want to see if you’re qualified to ascend.” After the God of Gluttony finished speaking, his figure disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already above Zhao Hai. The next moment, he transformed into an enormous, monstrous fish, opening his mouth and swallowing Zhao Hai whole.

Zhao Hai looked at the giant fish and smiled slightly, saying, “This is your true form, isn’t it?” With that, Zhao Hai pointed upwards, and countless runes suddenly appeared, forming a fist that struck the giant fish’s mouth. With a loud boom, the fish was sent flying backwards.

A moment later, the giant fish transformed back into the fat man’s form. The fat man looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Your strength is indeed quite impressive. Then try this move of mine.” With that, the fat man moved, transforming back into a giant fish. He then suddenly opened his mouth, and with this movement, an immense suction force emanated from it, causing the surrounding space to crack and creak, as if it couldn’t withstand such a powerful pull and was about to shatter.

Sensing this power, Zhao Hai’s expression subtly changed. He then said in a deep voice, “Is this your true strength? It’s still quite different from your original power, isn’t it?” As he spoke, Zhao Hai waved his hand, and countless runes flew out, scattering all around. The sound vanished from the surrounding space, clearly indicating that the space had been frozen in place.

Then, Zhao Hai pointed forward, and a sword composed of countless runes flew out, piercing directly at the giant fish.

The giant fish inhaled sharply, sucking the sword formed of runes into its mouth. A mocking glint flashed in its eyes, but quickly vanished, replaced by a look of agony. It opened its mouth wide, letting out a bloodcurdling roar. A burst of golden light erupted from its belly, followed by a deafening explosion as its stomach burst open, releasing countless runes that flew back to Zhao Hai. The giant fish roared again, its wounds healing rapidly.

Soon, they were completely healed. The fish then transformed into the fat man, standing there, his face still contorted in pain as he looked at Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai looked at him and then smiled slightly, saying, “Well, is my strength still worthy of your attention?”

The God of Gluttony looked at Zhao Hai, his expression now calm. He said, “Not bad, your strength is indeed impressive. I’ll be waiting for you in the Upper Realm. With your strength, we might actually become friends.” After he finished speaking, a loud boom was heard, and his body exploded, turning into black smoke and disappearing.

Zhao Hai looked at the spot where the God of Gluttony had vanished, a smile appearing on his face. He knew the God of Gluttony was unconvinced because this was in the Lower Realm, where he couldn’t use his full strength. That’s why he was unwilling to accept defeat and said he would wait for Zhao Hai in the Upper Realm. However, Zhao Hai didn’t care. Not to mention the future, even if he ascended to the Upper Realm now, he wouldn’t be afraid of the God of Gluttony. His strength was undeniable; his current strength already surpassed the God of Gluttony’s, let alone in the future.

Seeing the God of Gluttony disappear, and without Zhao Hai making any move, the runes simply returned to Zhao Hai. Then Zhao Hai said, “Old Bai, you guys take care of this place.”

Bai Yan responded, and Zhao Hai’s figure vanished instantly. There was no need for him to stay any longer. The space was now eerily clean, without a single piece of land. As for the power of the God of Gluttony, it had completely disappeared when he retrieved the runes. Therefore, Bai Yan and the others only needed to cover the entire domain with the Thousand Machine Star Radar.

Under Bai Yan’s command, the Thousand Machine Star Radar was quickly deployed, and the entire domain was added to their spatial map. The rest was left to Shi Jin.

After returning to the Blood Slaughter Sect, Zhao Hai went straight to his room. With a flick of his hand, two runes appeared in his palm. These two runes were black and exuded an ominous aura. They were two runes that Zhao Hai had created himself based on the God of Gluttony’s abilities. One was a Devouring Rune, and the other was a Digestion Rune. Although these two runes seemed insignificant, their uses were immense. If used properly, even if one couldn’t compare to the God of Gluttony, one wouldn’t be far behind.

However, Zhao Hai did not intend to give these two runes to the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect. These two runes carried an ominous aura, the source of which was actually the God of Gluttony. Don’t underestimate the God of Gluttony; he is extremely powerful. The core of the God of Gluttony lies in devouring and digesting energy. As soon as these two energies appear, they will be noticed by the God of Gluttony, and he can influence them. Just like Zhao Hai, as long as runes appear, regardless of who is using them, Zhao Hai can directly influence these two runes if he wants to. The God of Gluttony is the same; he can influence these two energies at any time. If Zhao Hai gave these two energies to the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect, then these energies would definitely be affected by the God of Gluttony, and the impact on the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect would be enormous.

Zhao Hai realized he had underestimated the gods. He thought his power surpassed theirs, and that he could freely use their power by creating runes. But he was wrong. Even if his power exceeded theirs and he created runes from their core power, the gods could still influence it. Using those powers carelessly would still be dangerous.

It was like the God of Pride. The God of Pride didn’t need to preach; he could absorb energy from anyone who harbored arrogance. His preaching was merely a means to gain more power, not a genuine need for preaching.

The God of Gluttony was the same. Even Zhao Hai was the same. In the Divine Realm, besides the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples providing him with faith power daily, Zhao Hai could feel countless streams of power flowing into his body every day. Where did this power come from? “Of course, it came from the Divine Realm. The Divine Realm contains countless domains, and as long as there are people or cultivators in that domain, and as long as they use words or runes, Zhao Hai can absorb energy. So, the Gluttony God and the others are the same. As long as someone does something that corresponds to their power, they can absorb energy. Just like the Gluttony God, as long as someone eats too much and digests it, the Gluttony God can gain energy. This is why they are immortal. Because as long as someone does something that corresponds to their power, they can gain energy, and with energy, they cannot die. So, of course, they are immortal.”

After discovering this, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but sigh softly. Then, with a flick of his hand, the two runes disappeared from his hand. He only needed to remember these two runes; there was no need to use them. If he did, the Gluttony God would gain energy, which would only make the Gluttony God even stronger.

Zhao Hai was currently pondering a crucial question: how to kill those beings? He desperately wanted to know how to eliminate the God of Gluttony and his allies. The answer was surprisingly simple: if no one acted in accordance with their power, they would lose their source of strength and could potentially be killed. However, in this universe, how could no one possibly act in accordance with their power? Take the God of Pride’s power of arrogance, for example. As long as someone possessed arrogance, the God of Pride would gain power. How could you expect everyone in this universe to be free of arrogance? It was impossible. Not to mention the Gods of Sloth and Gluttony. There were far too many lazy people in this world, so the God of Sloth couldn’t possibly be powerless. The same applied to the God of Gluttony. Even if cultivators didn’t eat, they still consumed elixirs. As long as they ate, they had to digest it, thus gaining power and preventing their deaths. Therefore, it was utterly impossible to deprive them of their power.

Zhao Hai now understood. Those gods didn’t simply refine a single power to its extreme. Even if you truly refined a power to its peak, you couldn’t become a god unless that power granted you immortality. Powers like the God of Pride, the Power of Sloth, the Power of Digestion, and the Power of Runes—these powers required the ability to be absorbed across various planes of the universe to become a god.

However, Zhao Hai became curious again. If that were true, why had no one obtained such an easily attainable power as runes? Was it Zhao Hai who obtained this power, while others didn’t? Why was that? Could it be that there truly wasn’t a God of Runes in the past? Was such a simple divine power truly unattainable?
