Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16363

Chapter 16361 Power

Wen Wenhai looked at Gongliang Juewen, then smiled slightly and said, “Many people are curious about how I cultivate. I process documents every day, so how do I cultivate? I’ve always told them that processing documents is my cultivation, and they’ve always believed me, genuinely thinking that processing documents is cultivation. But what they don’t know is that what I truly cultivate isn’t document processing, but power. Power is also a kind of strength, and processing sect documents every day is actually wielding power. Only by wielding power can my strength increase, because what I’ve comprehended is actually the law of power. However, within the Blood Slaughter Sect, my law of power has no room for development, because within the Blood Slaughter Sect, everyone…” “All power belongs to the young master. My power was also given to me by the young master. That’s why I said we must transcend power, because this power doesn’t belong to us. We use power to cultivate. You could say we are completely dependent on the young master for existence. As long as the young master is here, we have power, and therefore we can cultivate. This is my method of cultivation.”

Gongliang Juewen was taken aback when he heard Wen Wenhai say this. Then he immediately understood what Wen Wenhai meant. He never expected that Wen Wenhai was cultivating the Law of Power. The Law of Power is indeed the most suitable law for emperors to cultivate, because emperors are the most powerful people. If an emperor truly comprehends the Law of Power, his cultivation speed will be extremely fast.

However, in the Blood Slaughter Sect, comprehending the Law of Power is not a good thing. As Wen Wenhai said, all the power in the Blood Slaughter Sect actually belongs to Zhao Hai. Their power is also given by Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai can take it back at any time. Therefore, Wen Wenhai comprehended the Law of Power, but in theory, it is impossible for him to succeed in cultivating it.

However, Wen Wenhai succeeded in cultivating it. Although his current strength is not as good as Ding Chunming and the others, it is definitely not inferior. The main reason is that the power law he comprehended is not actually the true power law.

This may sound awkward and convoluted, but it can be explained in one sentence: the power law Wen Wenhai comprehended should actually be called the power transcendence law.

Only by possessing power, but also transcending power, can you cultivate this technique. Does Wen Wenhai have power? Of course he does. You could even say that he is the most powerful person in the Blood Slaughter Sect besides Zhao Hai. Has he transcended power? Of course he has transcended power, because he has no choice. If he only pursued power in the Blood Slaughter Sect, his ultimate goal would definitely be to challenge Zhao Hai. But Wen Wenhai is loyal to Zhao Hai, so how could he possibly challenge him? Therefore, he transcends power. He has power, but he does not abuse it. He treats power as a tool, not being controlled by it. It is precisely because of this that he can cultivate this technique.

And who is Gongliang Juewen? He was the king of the divine kingdom, and had been king for many years. He had long since ceased to value power. In fact, if it weren’t for responsibility, he could easily relinquish his power and retire to a life of leisure. But he couldn’t do that. He was acutely aware that he hadn’t found a suitable successor. It was precisely because of this lack of a suitable successor that he remained in that position. He knew perfectly well that if a suitable person couldn’t take the throne, the divine kingdom might descend into chaos. If chaos ensued, the most dead would be the ordinary people. He genuinely didn’t want too many ordinary people to die, so he continued to be king, though he himself had transcended the constraints of power.

Gongliang Juewen had never realized before that he could cultivate through power, but now, hearing Wen Wenhai’s words, Gongliang Juewen discovered that he seemed quite suited to this cultivation method.

Wen Wenhai looked at Gongliang Juewen and said, “Aren’t you curious about how we can use power to cultivate? Actually, you can treat it as an ordinary law. The attack power of the power law is actually quite formidable. I haven’t demonstrated it to them before, but its attack power is very strong. There are two main attack methods. One is ‘golden words,’ where words become law. You should know what this means. After using the power law, every word we say can become reality. The other attack method is ‘addictive.’ The meaning is quite simple: addiction is to make the enemy fall into an illusion, to make them addicted to the feeling of power, to let them sink forever, and finally to die. These are the two most commonly used attack methods of the power law.”

After listening to Wen Wenhai’s words, Gongliang Juewen nodded. He understood these two attack methods. To be honest, these two attack methods were really good and very compatible with the power law. But now he was thinking about how to use power to cultivate.

Looking at Gongliang Juewen, Wen Wenhai smiled slightly and said, “Are you thinking about how to use power for cultivation? Actually, it’s very simple. Don’t treat power as something ethereal and intangible. Treat it as a force, a force like spiritual energy. Think about how you use spiritual energy to cultivate, and how you use power to cultivate.”

Gongliang Juewen was taken aback, then looked at Wen Wenhai in confusion. Wen Wenhai looked at Gongliang Juewen and continued, “If you treat power as a law, then you can treat power as a force, a force like spiritual energy, and then you can cultivate.”

Upon hearing Wen Wenhai’s words, Gongliang Juewen seemed to understand how Wen Wenhai cultivated, and he immediately asked, “Then Elder Wen, your strength must be the strongest in the sect, right?”

Wen Wenhai shook his head and said, “No, although I hold power in the sect, this power actually belongs to the sect leader. Our power is borrowed, so our cultivation speed isn’t as fast as you imagine.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded, understanding Wen Wenhai’s meaning. Then, Gongliang Juewen continued, “What if someone truly only comprehends the laws of power but doesn’t transcend it? What would happen then?”

Wen Wenhai coldly smiled and said, “If you can’t transcend power, you will be controlled by it. Although you will cultivate faster because of power, you will ultimately be controlled by it. You will become a slave to power, and eventually, you will develop inappropriate thoughts.” And destruction follows, because if you only comprehend the laws of power but fail to transcend power itself, then you haven’t grasped the essence of power. The essence of power is to serve others, but many people have reversed this relationship. They believe that power is about making others serve them, without considering that the greater the power you gain, the more you must give. If, after obtaining power, you only think about using it for enjoyment, then you will ultimately be devoured by power.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded, and Wen Wenhai said in a deep voice, “Now you should also know why my cultivation speed is not fast, right? Because although I can use power to cultivate, I also have to expend some effort.” “I cannot use all my power for cultivation. It’s like sitting in that position; once we’re in that position, we have power. We can enjoy some of the benefits and perks that power brings, but we cannot monopolize all those benefits and turn power into our private possession. Otherwise, we become slaves to power and cannot transcend it.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded and said in a deep voice, “I understand. It’s like the position of King of the Divine Kingdom. If I become King of the Divine Kingdom, and if I only think of myself after sitting in that position, only think of using power to improve my own strength, then the Divine Kingdom…” ” There will definitely be chaos. At that point, forget about cultivation; I don’t think I’ll even be able to remain king. It won’t just be a matter of being overthrown; I’ll lose my life.”

Wen Wenhai nodded, “That’s right. When we use power for cultivation, we must transcend that power. If we can’t do that, it’s best not to use power for cultivation at all, otherwise, we’ll definitely suffer a backlash. And once that happens, there’s only one outcome: death and the annihilation of our cultivation.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded solemnly. He was an emperor; he understood Wen Wenhai’s words all too well. He knew perfectly well that Wen Wenhai was right. Power truly is a double-edged sword; it can help you, or it can take your life.

Wen Wenhai continued, “Everyone’s understanding of the laws is actually different. Even if we understand the same laws—the laws of power—there will still be subtle differences. These differences are closely related to individual experience and understanding of the laws. Therefore, everyone’s laws are different, just like everyone’s cultivation methods are different. Even if two different people practice the same method, their cultivation methods will have subtle differences. What I’m telling you is just my cultivation method, just my understanding of power. What you understand about power is up to you.”

Gongliang Juewen nodded. He only accepted this explanation after arriving at the Blood Slaughter Sect. The people in the Blood Slaughter Sect were indeed qualified to say this. They could say that every cultivation method is different for everyone, with subtle differences. You need to adjust your cultivation method to find the state that suits you best.

Only the Blood Slaughter Sect could achieve this level of skill, because they could adjust their cultivation techniques within a realistic illusion. However, in the Divine Kingdom, it wasn’t like that. In the Divine Kingdom, cultivators had only one requirement when practicing their techniques: absolute perfection. No modifications were allowed. If you modified the technique, you could expect to suffer a cultivation deviation. Why did no one dare to arbitrarily modify cultivation techniques in the Divine Kingdom? Because the techniques they practiced were the safest versions, modified by countless predecessors. Any further modifications would lead to a cultivation deviation. (End of Chapter)
