Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16517

Chapter 16515 Gods

Seeing that Zhao Hai had read the contents of the jade slip, the God of Trade smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, is there anything else you wish to trade? If so, we can begin our transaction now.”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “No, to be honest, I came here because of the Tibetans. Hahaha, to put it bluntly, I’m currently being hunted. Aren’t you afraid of offending people by trading with me?”

The God of Trade was taken aback, then shook his head and smiled, “I’m just trading with you, not helping you deal with them. What’s there to offend? Besides, you don’t think I’m incapable of protecting myself, do you?”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai burst into laughter, “Alright, it seems I underestimated you, Fellow Daoist.” “I don’t really need anything right now. How about this, fellow Daoist, let’s exchange contact information. If I ever need anything, I’ll contact you again, what do you say?”

The God of Trade nodded, then with a flick of his hand, an iron plaque appeared in his hand. The plaque looked unremarkable, and he simply tossed it to Zhao Hai, saying, “Here, take this. You can use this to contact me. If you need anything, just come to me. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely find it for you.”

Zhao Hai took the plaque and smiled, saying, “Okay, thank you very much.” The God of Trade smiled slightly and said, “Fellow Daoist, you’re too kind. We’ll meet again someday.” After saying that, he moved and disappeared.

After he disappeared, the large ship started sailing again, directly entering the Black Sea Market, and then stopped at a certain place. Of course, this large ship was also revolving around the sun.

Zhao Hai glanced at the large ship, then moved swiftly, appearing a moment later outside the Black Sea Market, on the outer edge of the Black Sea. Zhao Hai possessed this ability, allowing him to teleport anywhere he flew, thus enabling him to freely leave the Black Sea.

Once outside the Black Sea Market, Zhao Hai casually found a spot and concealed himself using a magic array. He needed to properly process the two pieces of intelligence he had obtained today.

The first piece of intelligence concerned the Divine Realm. No one knew the true size of the Divine Realm, as no god had yet found its end. However, all gods shared the belief that the Divine Realm was the center of the universe.

In the realm of gods, there are no native inhabitants. All those who ascend here are descendants of those who ascended from the lower realms. Upon their ascension, they are generally called wandering gods, or new gods. They have no territory, no followers, and are at their weakest. However, since they have comprehended a law to the point of achieving immortality, they are indeed immortal, and therefore still gods, albeit the lowest level of wandering gods.

The next level above wandering gods is called ghost gods. At this level, they can use their spiritual power to explore other realms. However, at this stage, they can only use their spiritual power to explore other realms. If they find another realm, their spiritual power will enter that realm, find the people within, and then use their spiritual power to enter their dreams, making those people their followers. This is the process of recruiting followers.

Because there are no native inhabitants in the God Realm, and many people who have just entered the God Realm have no followers because they have been comprehending their own laws, they need to be nourished by the spiritual energy of the God Realm to become stronger. Only in the God Realm can you find other realms through your spiritual power and then develop followers.

A power slightly stronger than ghosts and gods is the Earth God. Reaching this level is not easy. It means you have at least ten thousand followers who have built temples for you in their realms and provided you with the power of faith. Only such a person can be called an Earth God. The highest level of Earth God is to have one million followers. Only when you truly reach the Earth God level can you establish your own divine kingdom. The so-called divine kingdom is actually a piece of land that belongs to you. Of course, in the divine realm, your land can be any kind of land. If you have money and can collect various materials, you can build your divine kingdom into the shape of a magical artifact. You can command your divine kingdom to fly around. But if you don’t have money, you can only build a small divine kingdom. This divine kingdom cannot move. It may just be a flat area made up of some earth elements that you have collected, with a simple protective shield on top. It may just be a small village of a few dozen people or a small courtyard.

You can think of the God of Trade’s great ship as a divine kingdom, and you can think of yourself as creating a flat area with earth elements and building a courtyard on it, which can only house a few dozen people. That is also a divine kingdom. The difference between divine kingdoms is huge.

Above the Earth Gods are the Heavenly Gods. The minimum standard for becoming a Heavenly God is having one million followers, while the highest level requires one hundred million followers, a large portion of whom must reside in the Divine Realm.

Above the Heavenly Gods are the Primordial Gods. A Primordial God needs at least one realm’s worth of followers and can create things from nothingness. However, they can only create objects they know, and they must have a thorough understanding of those objects to create them.

Above the Primordial Gods are the Creator Gods. Creator Gods can create a world and all things. Most importantly, Creator Gods can leave their mark in the Void Realm, meaning they can have their own territory there.

Above the Creator Gods are the Primordial Gods. These Primordial Gods are incredibly powerful. They can not only create a world but also the Three Realms and Six Paths, establishing the cycle of reincarnation—essentially, they can write the laws of their own world.

Above the Primordial Gods are the Cosmic Gods, who are truly immortal, indestructible, and eternal. They can even create their own universes, which can contain multiple realms.

In essence, becoming a Cosmic God means becoming truly connected to that universe. If the universe doesn’t explode, you won’t die; even if it does, you might survive. Of course, such Cosmic Gods exist only in legends; no one has ever seen one.

In the divine realm, the power of faith is extremely important. Faith can help gods enhance their strength and also help them lock onto other realms. The universe contains countless realms. While there are many gods in the divine realm, there are even more realms. Locking onto a realm is no easy task for a god. Even if you lock onto a realm, you need sufficient spiritual power to enter it. And even after entering, you must find the people within that realm. Each realm is vast, and finding someone within it is incredibly difficult—almost like finding a needle in a haystack. And once you find them, you must slowly cultivate them into your followers—this is the most crucial step.

Once you have followers and a temple in a certain realm, you can plunder resources from that realm. Where do the gods in the divine realm get their resources? They all plunder from other realms, just like the God of Creation, who also plundered considerable resources from the divine kingdom.

Of course, if you want others to believe in you, you can’t just talk the talk without giving them anything in return. So many gods initially make some investment, though it’s relatively low. Most gods start exploring different planes from the level of ghosts and gods. If they find a plane without other gods, they’ll enter the other person’s dreams and slowly lure them into becoming their followers.

Moreover, even if someone becomes their follower, they won’t initially receive anything from them. They’ll only help them improve their strength. Improving the strength of those followers is relatively easy. Gods can utilize the most abundant and omnipresent resources in the divine realm to enhance the strength of those in the lower realm. This resource is the spiritual energy of the divine realm. The concentration of spiritual energy in the divine realm is much higher than in the lower realm, and it’s also active spiritual energy. This kind of spiritual energy is extremely helpful to cultivators. However, if you only use this spiritual energy to improve your strength, and your foundation is unstable, then your cultivation will be greatly affected. You might even find it difficult to make any further progress in this life. Unless, after borrowing the spiritual energy of the divine realm to improve your strength, you are willing to spend hundreds of years slowly digesting this spiritual energy and making it completely your own, then you might have a chance to start improving your strength again.

For example, in the Divine Kingdom, the God of Creation used the spiritual energy of the Divine Realm to instantly elevate a soldier cultivator’s strength to the Kingdom level. However, because their understanding of the laws, their cultivation of the mind, and even their control over the spiritual energy within their bodies were not perfect, they couldn’t unleash their full power. Therefore, such people are called pseudo-King level cultivators. Their strength is sufficient to deal with King-level cultivators, but against Kingdom-level cultivators, they are simply no match. This is the consequence of the God of Creation forcibly boosting their strength using the spiritual energy of the Divine Realm.

In the Divine Kingdom, such pseudo-King level experts generally reach their limit, with no further opportunity to improve their strength in this lifetime—this is the experience of the people of the Divine Kingdom.

However, their strength can still be improved. If they are willing to spend hundreds of years slowly refining the spiritual energy within their bodies, their strength can still be increased, even ascension is possible, completely unaffected. It’s just a pity that people often lack such patience. (End of Chapter)
