Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16326
Chapter 16324 Surrender
Immortality is the pursuit of all cultivators. This strange man is probably the oldest person Zhao Hai has ever seen. He has lived for tens of thousands of years. The reason he can live for so long is because he used a secret technique to separate his spirit from his body. In other words, his spirit is active, but his body is like a dead body. All the functions in his body have stopped. Only when he needs it will his spirit return to his body, and his body will come back to life. This is a secret technique called the Nine Nether Profound Nether Secret Technique. Of course, there is a prerequisite for using this secret technique: there must be a material that can nourish your spirit and ensure that your body has a certain degree of activity. This strange man once obtained a kind of wood called Soul Nourishing Wood, which is extremely rare. He used this wood to make himself a huge coffin. He has been lying in that coffin. If it weren’t for this critical situation, he wouldn’t have come out.
However, this secret method couldn’t keep him alive indefinitely. His lifespan depended entirely on when the Soul-Nourishing Wood’s power would be exhausted. In fact, the Soul-Nourishing Wood’s energy had been slowly weakening over the years. He had calculated that in about a hundred years, its energy would be completely depleted, and he would die then. Even without this crisis, he planned to wake up soon and have the Gongliang family find him more Soul-Nourishing Wood; otherwise, he would truly die.
But now Zhao Hai was telling him that if he surrendered, he would be granted eternal life, which explained his astonishment. Looking at the strange man, Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “If I really wanted to kill you, it would be too easy. I’m just giving you a chance. If you surrender, I can grant you eternal life. If you don’t surrender, I will still make you my subordinates, but that might be very painful for you. So, choose.”
The strange man looked down at the Gongliang family members below, then let out a long breath, as if expelling all the air from his body. He then said, “I am willing to surrender.”
Zhao Hai smiled slightly, then looked down at Gongliang Juewen and the others, and asked, “And you?”
Gongliang Juewen and the others were now deathly pale, completely devoid of color. Gongliang Juewen, in particular, seemed to have all his energy drained away. He then said with difficulty, “I surrender.” Since he surrendered, everyone else naturally followed suit.
Zhao Hai waved his hand, and countless runes suddenly appeared, landing directly on the people, including the strange man. When the runes touched them, their bodies stiffened, as their minds were suddenly flooded with information they needed to process. At this time,
Zhao Hai’s figure returned to normal, as did the strange man’s, though he remained dazed. Zhao Hai didn’t call him, simply standing there quietly.
About half an hour passed before they all woke up, their eyes clearing. They stared blankly at their surroundings, and then Zhao Hai’s voice rang out: “I’ve had the coordinates of a teleportation array in Wukong City changed to the Void Realm. All of you can use that teleportation array in batches to return to the Void Realm to study and receive sect benefits.”
Everyone responded. Zhao Hai glanced at the strange man again and asked, “What’s your name?”
The strange man immediately looked at Zhao Hai… He bowed and said, “Replying to Young Master, my name is Gongliang Yu.”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Go to the sect first. Your health isn’t very good. Collect all the sect’s benefits as soon as possible, and rest there for a while. Your body should recover. Go.” Gongliang Yu responded, bowed to Zhao Hai, and then flew straight towards a teleportation array on Wukong Island. That teleportation array was in a corner of Wukong Island, and it was originally only able to teleport a hundred people. Now, that teleportation array could only teleport to the Void Realm.
After seeing Gongliang Yu leave, Zhao Hai turned to Gongliang Juewen and said, “Come with me.” After saying that, he flew towards Gongliang Juewen’s study. Gongliang Juewen quickly responded and followed.
The two quickly arrived at Gongliang Juewen’s study. This time, Zhao Hai sat in the main seat, and then had someone bring Gongliang Juewen a chair. Gongliang Juewen carefully sat down. He now realized what kind of person Zhao Hai was. To be honest, he felt that he was already very lucky to have joined the Blood Slaughter Sect. He now had great respect for Zhao Hai.
After the two sat down, Zhao Hai pondered for a moment before speaking, “I wasn’t lying to you before. I genuinely didn’t intend to attack the Divine Kingdom so quickly. But now that it’s been discovered, there’s no need to wait any longer. That’s why I made my move. We’ve taken Wu Kong City, but we haven’t taken the sects, families, or armies yet. And frankly, I don’t want to fight anymore. It’s pointless to attack you all. So I plan to leave the rest to the disciples of the sects. This way, the armies of both sides will begin their battle. What are your thoughts on this?”
Gongliang Juewen thought for a moment, then… He began, “Qingxuan and Wanhai have already started their investigation. They’ll definitely discover the problem. If I intervene now and stop them from taking action, they’ll suspect my motives. They might even directly oppose me, which would be more disadvantageous for us. So, my idea is that I still intervene, unite the various armies, and pretend to fight against the sect, but secretly send messages to the sect. Then, I’ll make some mistakes in command. This will actually be more advantageous to the sect.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “That’s not necessary. Just command them as you normally would. As long as they…” “Just pass the message directly to Chang Jun. You don’t need to worry about anything else. You should know that almost all the disciples of the sect are now immortal. Even if they die, they can be resurrected, so there’s no need to worry about them.”
Gongliang Juewen responded, and Zhao Hai continued, “What you need to do now is only one thing: ensure the safety of those ordinary people. Almost none of them have cultivated, and their soul imprints are extremely fragile. In a real battle, the aftershocks could kill them or even shatter their soul imprints. If that happens, they’ll truly be…” “Even I can’t directly resurrect those who are dead. After all, there are just too many ordinary people in the Divine Kingdom. I can’t simply turn them all into members of the sect. So, it’ll be up to you. Your most important task is to move all the ordinary people near the battlefield to a safe place when the battle begins.”
Gongliang Juewen responded. Zhao Hai continued, “Alright, I won’t concern myself with anything else. You can handle it yourselves. By the way, I’m calling Chang Jun over. You can discuss anything with him in the future.” After saying that, Zhao Hai immediately called Chang Jun over.
As soon as Chang Jun arrived, he saw Gongliang Juewen and was taken aback. He immediately bowed to Gongliang Juewen and said, “Elder Gongliang.” He understood what was going on as soon as he saw Gongliang Juewen. Gongliang Juewen must have already joined the sect, so now he could only call him Elder Gongliang.
Gongliang Juewen returned the greeting, saying, “Elder Chang.”
Zhao Hai said, “Chang Jun, the sects and aristocratic families have already begun investigating the lower sects. They’ll soon know of our existence and prepare for a direct confrontation. However, I’ve already brought Gongliang and the others into our ranks. You’ll need to discuss future actions with them. Gongliang will tell you all the sects’ and aristocratic families’ plans. What you do is up to you.”
Chang Jun responded, his expression turning serious. “Young Master, should we strike first?”
Zhao Hai shook his head. He shook his head and said, “There’s no need for that. The reason I’m telling you this is so you can use this time to prepare for the great battle. Remember, your preparations must prioritize the safety of ordinary people. Those ordinary people haven’t cultivated much, and their soul imprints are extremely fragile. If they’re affected by the energy waves of the battle, their soul imprints might shatter, and they’ll truly die. So, you’d better settle down as many ordinary people as possible now, so that it won’t be too late to make arrangements once the battle begins.” “Also, tell Xu Ying that once the great battle begins, they should join your side directly. Don’t stay with Gongliang and his group; there’s no need.”
Chang Jun responded, and Zhao Hai continued, “For future battles, you should discuss them with Gongliang. I’ve told him there’s no need for him to betray those sects and aristocratic families. With our strength, we can easily handle them directly. You’ll be in command of this battle. The battle here in the Divine Kingdom won’t end anytime soon, so you don’t need to…” “I’m anxious.”
Chang Jun responded again. Zhao Hai then turned to Gongliang Juewen and said, “What happened here is unknown to outsiders except those on Wukong Island, so you don’t need to worry. Just do what you did before. Don’t worry about Chang Jun and the others. You just need to tell them your action plan. Chang Jun, even if you know their plan, don’t be too confrontational. Otherwise, they’ll immediately suspect an internal traitor. Remember, follow our sect’s style.” Chang Jun responded; he understood what he had to do.
