Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16473
Chapter 16471. Rest assured.
“Isn’t it strange? If the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples can really resurrect infinitely, why don’t they just sweep us away and wipe us out directly? There’s no need for so many methods.” Gongliang Juewen had already guessed what they were thinking, so he spoke directly.
After speaking, he glanced at Qingxuan and the others. Seeing that their expressions were normal, he knew he had guessed correctly. He looked at Qingxuan and the others and said, “Because the sect leader wants to preserve their memories and doesn’t want them to become mindless puppets. Although the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples can resurrect infinitely, it’s not without a price. The main reason a person lives is because of their soul imprint, and this soul imprint usually contains their memories. When a person dies, the soul imprint returns to the world and slowly disappears. But at the same time, a new soul imprint will be born in the world. Of course…” This new soul imprint contains no memories of the past; he has become a new person. Resurrection, in essence, is about preserving a soul imprint, just like you each have one. Without the ability to resurrect, your soul imprints would disappear after death, along with all your memories and emotions; you would truly die. But with the method of resurrection, your soul imprints are preserved, your bodies are reconstructed, and then the soul imprints return to your bodies. This way, all your memories and emotions are preserved, and you are truly resurrected.
“However, this method isn’t without its costs. When you die, your soul imprint will also suffer some damage. If you die and are resurrected repeatedly within a short period, the damage to your soul imprint will be even greater. This could lead to memory or emotional loss, which is a terrifying prospect. That’s why the Blood Slaughter Sect doesn’t allow a disciple to be resurrected and rejoin the battle immediately after dying in battle. They can be resurrected, but they can’t participate in the battle because the loss of the soul imprint takes a long time to recover. If someone is killed repeatedly within a short period, it could cause permanent damage to the soul imprint, which the sect leader cannot allow. That’s why the Blood Slaughter Sect values the lives of its disciples so much. Just because they have the ability to resurrect doesn’t mean that sect disciples can act recklessly and disregard death.”
“Now that I’ve said this, I wonder if anyone has noticed any difference between the deities of sects and those of other religions?” Gongliang Juewen said, turning to look at everyone.
After carefully considering Gongliang Juewen’s words, everyone immediately understood his meaning. Wan Hai spoke up, “You mean the difference lies in the soul imprint? Those sects claim to have returned to their gods after death, but in reality, their soul imprints have long since disappeared. What the god took back was just a ball of energy, while the Blood Slaughter Sect truly resurrected people using their original soul imprints?”
Gongliang Juewen nodded, “That’s right, that’s the idea. The sect leader possesses god-like power. You might not know, but there were many members of the Creation God Cult at the first defensive line. Initially, these people secretly worshipped the Creation God Cult, but later, in order to find them all, I deliberately ignored them.” These members of the Creation God Cult were semi-legalized. Then, when the Blood Slaughter Sect attacked them, they summoned the God of Creation once more. In reality, this was a conspiracy by the God of Creation. The destruction of the Creation God Cult was largely due to the sect’s involvement, and the sect leader had destroyed many of the God of Creation’s avatars. Because of this, the God of Creation wanted revenge on the sect leader. Therefore, the avatar that descended at the first line of defense was unprecedentedly powerful; it wanted to kill the sect leader. Unfortunately, it was no match for the sect leader and was ultimately defeated. Thus, all those who believed in the Creation God Cult died. This is the sect leader’s power.”
Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen’s words, Qingxuan and the others were all stunned. They genuinely didn’t know about this. Gongliang Juewen, observing their expressions, continued, “Because death damages the soul imprint, the sect leader doesn’t want too many disciples to die. He also doesn’t want to deal with you personally, which is why he sent the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples to attack you, using various methods to deal with you. This is for the sake of the sect’s disciples, not because the sect leader is afraid of you or lacks strength. Frankly speaking, if the sect leader wanted to, none of you would even have a chance to withstand a single blow from him. Do you remember our Gongliang family’s ancestor? He’s still alive, but he’s joined the sect. Even he couldn’t withstand a single blow from the sect leader, let alone you. The reason I’m doing this today…” “I’m here because it’s almost time. The sect is preparing to wrap things up, so that’s why I was sent here. The sect is giving you a chance. Join the sect now, and you can suffer less.”
Qingxuan and the others exchanged glances, then Qingxuan looked at Gongliang Juewen and said, “If we join the sect, does that mean we won’t die?”
Gongliang Juewen smiled bitterly and then said, “I’ve told you so much, why don’t you understand? The death you speak of is different from the death the Blood Slaughter Sect speaks of. When you join the sect, the sect will place your soul imprints in the sect leader’s rune space. In this way, as long as the sect leader doesn’t die, you can live forever. Of course, nothing in this world can kill the sect leader.”
“Nothing can kill the sect leader? Then the sect leader is immortal?” Wan Hai looked at Gongliang Juewen and said.
Gongliang Juewen nodded and said, “Yes, the Sect Master is indeed immortal now. He said that only when we reach his level can we understand what immortality means. We haven’t reached that level yet. Don’t think that if we really put our soul imprints into the Sect Master’s rune space, our strength can’t be improved. That’s not the case. The Sect Master allows us to improve our strength. In fact, he hopes we can improve our strength. If we can all reach his level, the Sect Master will be very happy. He has never treated us as slaves; he hopes…” “I hope we can become his friends, because the path to immortality is too lonely, and we need friends to support each other on our journey.”
Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone and then said, “Everyone, I’ve said so much not because the sect is truly afraid of death, or because the sect doesn’t have enough strength to deal with you. You know nothing about the sect’s strength. I can say this: even if the sect hadn’t used those various methods, but instead engaged you in a direct confrontation, we would still be the ones to lose in the end. It’s just that the sect is used to attacking and fighting in a way that results in fewer casualties, which is why we haven’t faced us head-on from the start.” “A direct confrontation.”
Qingxuan looked at Gongliang Juewen and said, “I’m curious, if the sect’s strength is really that great, and the sect leader’s strength is also that great, then why would the sect leader still come to deal with us? Is there something in the Divine Kingdom that the sect needs?”
Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone, and everyone was looking at him. He couldn’t help but sigh and said, “The only thing that has any attraction for the sect in the Divine Kingdom is actually people.”
Gongliang Juewen continued, “The sect leader could have ascended long ago, but in our realm, the sect leader has offended several gods like the God of Creation, and these gods…” “The Ming beings all reside in the higher realm. Once the sect leader ascends, conflict with them is inevitable, a direct confrontation. Therefore, the sect leader must be fully prepared before ascending. The main reason the sect leader is targeting us is that he wants us to join his sect. Once we join, by placing our soul imprints into his illusionary realm, we can help the sect leader increase his power. This power can then help the sect leader fight against the gods. As for anything else, it holds no appeal for the sect leader.”
Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen’s words, Qingxuan and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They weren’t against joining the Blood Slaughter Sect; their concern was that if they joined and the sect didn’t need them, their future would be bleak. However, if the sect needed them, joining would bring them better treatment. Therefore, instead of being angry, they found Gongliang Juewen’s words quite reasonable.
Sometimes, people are like that: they’re not afraid of hard work, but they fear being unwanted. If no one in the world needs you anymore, what’s the meaning of your life? To die alone in some unknown corner, only to be discovered after you’ve decayed?
Why do people strive? Because they hope to be needed by more people. The joy of success is the most wonderful thing in the world, more wonderful than anything else. If a person is truly not needed at all, then they have been abandoned by the world. If you are truly abandoned by the world, what is the meaning of your life? Therefore, Qingxuan and the others worried that they wouldn’t be needed by the Blood Slaughter Sect. If that were the case, they would lose their value, which wouldn’t be good for them. They were worried that after joining the Blood Slaughter Sect, they would suddenly become useless. If that were the case, the consequences would be unimaginable; they would be gradually marginalized and eventually abandoned by the entire sect.
Now, however, they know they still have value and will still be needed. This puts their minds at ease. Having value means they won’t be abandoned, and they can continue to ascend with Zhao Hai, perhaps even one day becoming gods themselves! (End of Chapter)
