Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16538
Chapter 16536 Understanding
Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words, the Skeleton God was taken aback. He then looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Not bad, it seems your strength is quite impressive. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have been able to escape to the Black Sea. The reason I called you here is to tell you that I won’t pursue the matter of the castle last time, but you should still be more careful in the future. In the God Realm, there are quite a few people who do what I did. If you help someone modify a magic array again, you might offend someone, and you might not be so lucky then.”
Zhao Hai responded, then said, “I won’t do that again. I only did that because I was new to the God Realm and didn’t understand the situation here. I plan to stop helping people modify magic arrays in the future, and only help them plan routes. As for building magic arrays, I’ll leave that to others.” “I gave it to someone else, and I don’t plan to do this anymore for a while. After all, I’m planning to sell the underground palace flowers now.”
The Skeleton God nodded, then said, “I admire you. I know how well my men who know magic arrays understand them. The backdoor he left behind isn’t something just anyone can find. You were able to discover it and modify the array in such a short time. That’s impressive. If you ever need anything in the future, you can come to me. I can help you, but in return, you’ll have to work for me. Of course, if one day your strength allows you to solve all your problems, then we can cooperate. Here’s my contact information. Take it.” With that, the Skeleton God flicked his hand, and a jade-like domino flew to Zhao Hai’s front.
Zhao Hai quickly reached out and took it, then bowed to the Skeleton God and said, “Thank you, sir.”
The Skeleton God nodded and then said, “If I need your help to modify magic arrays for others in the future, I hope you will agree. Of course, you will receive plenty of benefits. How about it?”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai quickly replied, “I can, but sir, as you know, I have enemies now. If they find out, they will definitely come after me, so I am hesitant to leave the Black Sea.”
Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words, the Skeleton God couldn’t help but sneer and said, “In the God Realm, there aren’t many people I can’t offend. Who have you offended?”
Zhao Hai replied, “The God of Creation and the Seven Deadly Sins.”
“The God of Creation? Never heard of him. He doesn’t seem very powerful. As for the Seven Deadly Sins? I’ve heard of them, but you don’t need to worry about them. If I really need your help building the magic array, I’ll send someone to pick you up. I guarantee no one will dare touch you.”
Zhao Hai quickly said, “Thank you, sir.”
The Skeleton God nodded, then waved his hand and said, “Go back.” Zhao Hai responded, then bowed to the Skeleton God, left the Skeleton God’s study, and then left the Skeleton God’s divine kingdom.
After Zhao Hai left the Skeleton God’s divine kingdom, he couldn’t help but turn his head to look at the skeleton again before flying towards his residence.
Just as Zhao Hai arrived at the area where their alliance lived, he saw Ling Zhu and all the others there, all looking anxiously towards the passage.
Seeing their expressions, Zhao Hai knew they were waiting for him, but he pretended not to know and asked, “What’s wrong? Why are you all here? Is something the matter?”
Ling Zhu and the others breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Zhao Hai. They all relied on him to make money; if something happened to him, they would lose a significant source of income, hence their anxiety.
Ling Zhu and the others quickly approached him. Ling Zhu asked, “Are you alright? Did the Skeleton God give you any trouble? We were all worried something had happened to you, so we all waited here for you.”
Hearing this, Zhao Hai immediately feigned gratitude and said, “I’m fine. I’m sorry to have worried you all. The Skeleton God didn’t give me any trouble. On the contrary, he said he admired me and even gave me his contact information.”
Hearing this, Ling Zhu and the others were all stunned. Then, Ling Zhu suddenly asked, “Really? The Skeleton God really didn’t give you any trouble?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Yes, he really didn’t make things difficult for me.”
Ling Zhu and the others exchanged glances, all somewhat surprised. However, Ling Zhu still said, “If that’s really the case, then that’s impressive. Indeed, knowing magic arrays is a real advantage here.”
Zhao Hai smiled and said, “Alright, stop teasing me. In any case, I have one less enemy now, and the strongest one at that. That’s a good thing. We can deal with the rest of them slowly.”
Ling Zhu and the others all nodded. Zhao Hai then looked at them and smiled, “Alright, everyone, go back now. Once we’re strong enough, we can leave the Black Sea sooner.” Everyone responded and then they all left. Zhao Hai also returned to the Sky-Supporting Tree.
To be honest, Zhao Hai and his group have been selling quite well with their Underground Palace Flowers lately. Feng Ling, for example, has already restocked twice with Zhao Hai. Each time, he first gives Zhao Hai the spirit stones from the previous batch, then takes a batch of Underground Palace Flower seeds. Of course, as they expected, they haven’t received many spirit stones; most of what they’ve received is soil. Generally, one Underground Palace Flower can be exchanged for two lumps of soil the size of an adult’s fist. Don’t think it’s a bad deal; an Underground Palace Flower can last at least ten years, while a god can only condense two lumps of soil the size of an adult’s fist in a few months at most. It seems like this exchange isn’t equitable.
However, things aren’t actually that simple. Underground Palace Flowers are products of the lower realm; besides making a god’s life more comfortable in the divine realm, they have no other use. Soil, on the other hand, is different; it can be used to condense one’s own divine kingdom, something that can’t be bought with spirit stones.
However, cultivators can condense soil themselves, but they can’t make Underground Palace Flowers, so they’re willing to exchange soil for Underground Palace Flowers to make their lives more comfortable.
In fact, in the realm of gods, there are many low-level deities who live by condensing soil. They condense soil and then exchange a portion for other things. For example, some people exchange soil for spatial equipment, allowing them to store their soil in their spatial devices and carry it with them. This is actually the lifestyle of many low-level deities living in the Black Sea Market.
Of course, these people have no place to rest, so things like underground palace flowers are indeed very popular with them. From Feng Ling and the others’ accounts, Zhao Hai gained a more detailed understanding of the Black Sea.
To put it simply, the Black Sea is somewhat like a slum in some countries. It’s inhabited by low-level gods, none of whom are particularly powerful. Some have offended people and dare not leave the Black Sea. There are many people living here, and because of this, the Black Sea has gradually formed its own ecosystem. Many rely on markets for their livelihood, like the Wind Spirit, working as brokers. Others make a living by condensing soil. In the divine realm, only gods can condense soil; ordinary cultivators cannot, as their level is insufficient. Therefore, the demand for soil is very high in the divine realm.
Zhao Hai felt that the gods of the Black Sea were like the most primitive producers, creating the most basic materials for their livelihood. Of course, most of them, if they could truly endure it, wouldn’t need to sell their condensed soil for other things. However, sometimes, as cultivators, they still need certain things. How do they obtain these things? Of course, they’d exchange it for mud.
Actually, there are many cultivators in the Black Sea whose strength has reached the Earth God level. They could build their own divine kingdoms, but they can’t. Why? First, some of them may not have obtained coordinates from other realms, making it impossible for them to spread their teachings or have followers. Second, they don’t have enough land to build their kingdoms. Like Lingzhu and her group, they only have a small plot of land—how could they build a divine kingdom? Of course, they haven’t reached the strength to build one either.
However, in the Black Sea, there are quite a few people who have reached the required strength but cannot establish a divine kingdom due to a lack of land. These people don’t want to leave the Black Sea. Their strength may be sufficient to build a divine kingdom, but without followers and their own divine kingdom, their strength is far inferior to those who do. In the God Realm, realm and strength are not equivalent.
Realm represents what you can do, but whether you can actually do it is another matter entirely.
Furthermore, the God Realm has another unique characteristic: it’s almost devoid of resources. Zhao Hai had never heard of any resources in the God Realm. It seems to be nothing more than a void, filled only with dense, almost tangible spiritual energy. Besides that, there are black holes.
Where do the resources in the God Realm come from? The answer is actually quite simple: it’s created by gods who have reached the Primordial Spirit level. Primordial Spirit level gods can create things from nothing, directly using spiritual energy to manufacture objects. At the Creator God level, they can create a small world. This small world has its own rules, like the Skeleton God’s divine kingdom, which can produce food and medicine. However, if you want your divine world to produce these things, creation alone isn’t enough. Your small world must have a complete system of laws. This system of laws is like the operating rules of a world. Of course, reaching the Creator God level only allows your small world to have the most basic operating rules. Going further, you can subdivide the rules of the world, even deciding how the people in your small world live and what their life and death are like. Of course, this is something only higher-level gods can do. (End of Chapter)
