Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16166

Chapter 16164. Completion

Because of the Yu family’s emphasis on Beast Town City, when Yu Changkong came to Beast Town City this time, the Yu family sent a lot of people to accompany him. These people were all very capable. However, no matter how capable they were, they still had to understand the situation in Beast Town City before dealing with the affairs here.

After years of development, the Divine Kingdom has formed a system that can be seen as a system of powerful families. This system means that the entire country, from top to bottom, is controlled by families of varying sizes. Large families, like the Kong and Yu families, control the government and are the core of power; these are the most elite families. Smaller families are those in smaller towns. Their individual strength may not be very high, but they have operated in a town for many years. Some family members may hold official positions in the town, or even if they don’t, they are local officials (li). Li is an unranked official, essentially a local administrator. These li directly interact with and manage ordinary people. Although they lack official rank, their power in the local area is considerable. A small family that has operated in a town for generations can wield a formidable influence.

Therefore, after arriving in Beast Suppression City, Yu Changkong did not act rashly. He wanted to first understand the situation in Beast Suppression City before taking any targeted action.

Yu Changkong had already released the Yu family members to gather information and understand the situation in the city. Only after understanding the city’s situation would he proceed with his next action.

That very night, while Yu Changkong was listening to the Yu family’s report, his city lord’s mansion was surrounded. Just as the Yu family realized something was wrong and tried to take action, a large number of Blood Slaughter Sect disciples stormed into the mansion and immediately attacked the Yu family members. Without uttering a single word, they attacked. The Yu

family members were no match for the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples and were instantly wiped out, all turning into undead.

After becoming undead, Yu Changkong finally understood what had happened. He also understood why Kong Youwei had left. Kong Youwei’s departure was to send a spy to Wukong Island.

A few days after Yu Changkong became a member of the undead race, the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws was officially completed. Originally, the members of the Creation God Cult were unaware of the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws; they were preoccupied with finding out who had attacked their temple. Their attention was entirely focused on this matter, and they paid little attention to any new constructions in the city. However, after the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws was completed, they couldn’t ignore it, as the city’s inhabitants began discussing it.

It’s important to know that there are many independent cultivators in Beast Town City, and after its completion, the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws immediately issued a notice stating that anyone who believed in the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws could freely choose three techniques from the sect to learn. This was incredibly attractive to independent cultivators.

Of course, now the entire Beast Town City was under the control of the Blood Slaughter Sect. If the Blood Slaughter Sect didn’t want the Creation God Cult to know about the Temple of Ten Thousand Laws, the Creation God Cult wouldn’t have known. The reason the Creation God Cult knew about it now was because the Blood Slaughter Sect had instructed them to pass the message on.

Upon hearing this, the members of the Creation God Cult immediately sent people to inquire about the Myriad Laws God Cult, but they found nothing. The Myriad Laws Temple was merely a temple built in the city, occupying a vast area. Most importantly, the temple did not enshrine any deity, but rather a large character for “law” (法).

The entire temple was divided into five courtyards. At the outermost edge of the courtyard was a large bluestone plaza. Beside the plaza stood a massive stone tablet, inscribed with the doctrines of the Myriad Laws God Cult.

The doctrines of the Myriad Laws God Cult were very simple: they told everyone that the Myriad Laws God Cult revered all laws, believing that all laws were the myriad paths, and that each law, when used to its fullest potential, became a path. This was the doctrine of the Myriad Laws God Cult.

Behind the square stood a tall wall, entirely constructed of bluestone. The temple had three main gates and two side gates. The main gate was closed, but the two side gates were open, each inscribed with a character: one read “Enter,” and the other “Exit,” clearly indicating that to enter the temple, one must use the entrance, and to leave, one must use the exit.

Beyond the temple was a courtyard containing three main halls: a main hall and two side halls. In the main hall, a longsword, gleaming coldly and enormous, stood about three zhang tall. The side halls were filled with various weapons—swords, spears, halberds, and even large shields—all made of metal. Above the main hall of this courtyard was an inscription in seal script.

The second courtyard is the same as the first, except that a real, living tree grows in the main hall, and various plants are displayed in the side halls on both sides. The character “木” (wood) is carved above the main hall. In the

third courtyard, there is a huge pool in the main hall, and people can only walk around the pool. The side halls on both sides are also filled with pools, and the character “水” (water) is carved above the main hall.

In the fourth courtyard, a fire burned in the center of the main hall. The source of the fire was unclear; no wood or other fuel was visible, yet the fire burned continuously. The side halls on either side also had similar fires.

In the fifth courtyard, a huge rock stood in the center of the main hall, while the side halls were filled with various kinds of stones, creating a beautiful scene.

At the very front of the temple was a row of rear-facing rooms inhabited by members of the Myriad Laws Cult. Their clothing was peculiar, consisting of five colors: white, green, blue, red, and yellow. The robes resembled large gowns, and each person carried a staff taller than themselves.

These people all wore gentle smiles and guided those entering the temple. If you said you wanted to join the Myriad Laws Cult, they would lead you through five main halls. In the Hall of Gold, they would have you gently touch the weapons, including a greatsword. In the Hall of Wood, they would have you touch the plants. In the Hall of Water, they would gently drip some water from the pool onto your forehead. In the Hall of Fire, they would have you throw a piece of wood into the fire. And in the Hall of Earth, they would have you touch the stones. After all this, you were considered to have joined the Myriad Laws Cult. They would then teach you three spells, and you could choose any of them—spells of various attributes were all acceptable.

After learning about the Myriad Laws Cult, the members of the Creation Cult fell silent. Joining the Myriad Laws Cult seemed far too easy. There were no constraints whatsoever. What was the purpose of such a sect? It didn’t seem like proselytizing at all; it seemed more like charity work.

It’s important to understand that the Creation God Cult imposes various restrictions on recruiting followers, such as requiring daily prayers and prohibiting them from joining other sects. In reality, the Creation God Cult is a relatively more lenient sect. The

Myriad Laws Cult, however, is different. It has no such restrictions. As long as you follow someone from the Myriad Laws Cult, walk around the temple, and do the five things they ask you to do, you’re considered a member. They even allow you to join other sects, don’t require prayers, and then give you three magical techniques. It’s practically like doing charity. People from the Creation God Cult all want to join the Myriad Laws Cult.

In a room within the Temple of Creation, the temple’s abbot and several stewards were seated. The abbot, a Taoist priest who appeared to be in his forties, had a solemn expression. Looking at his subordinates, he said in a deep voice, “What are your thoughts on this Myriad Laws Sect?”

One steward spoke up, “Abbot, I think we must first understand the true nature of this Myriad Laws Sect. It just so happens that the new city lord of Beast Suppression City has been in office for a few days now, and we haven’t yet paid him a visit. Perhaps you could visit him and see if you can learn anything from him. As the city lord, he should know something. Furthermore, the fact that the Myriad Laws Sect can build a temple in the city itself indicates that they have the approval of the higher-ups of the Divine Kingdom. We must know who approved this.”

The abbot nodded. At this moment, another steward also spoke up, “Abbot, this matter must…” “This needs to be reported. I suspect that our previous attack might be related to the Myriad Laws Cult. Why did the Myriad Laws Cult reappear so soon after our attack? Isn’t that too much of a coincidence? So this matter must be reported immediately; I think it’s crucial.”

Upon hearing this, the abbot also said very seriously, “I have the same suspicion, so this matter must be reported. How about this, we’ll send some people to monitor the Myriad Laws Cult. I’ll report this first, and then go to the City Lord’s Mansion to inquire about the situation and see what’s going on.”

Everyone responded, and the abbot waved his hand. The group bowed to the abbot and then turned and left. After they left, the abbot immediately took out a jade slip, entered some information into it, and then directly used a communication array to send the jade slip out.

After doing this, he got up, straightened his clothes, and then walked out. Soon, he left the Temple of Creation and headed towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

He soon arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion. It wasn’t his first time here, but the mansion had changed hands. He still walked up to the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion with great politeness and said to the guards at the gate, “Please announce my arrival. Qingde, the abbot of the Temple of Creation, requests an audience with the City Lord.”
