Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16547

Chapter 16545. Choice

“Everyone, please sit down. Perfect timing! I have a jar of wine I brought up from the lower realm. Since we’re in such a good mood, let’s drink this jar of wine,” Zhao Hai said with a smile to Song Lin

and the others in the living room of the Sky-Supporting Tree. The group sat down excitedly. Zhao Hai then took out a seemingly ordinary wine jar, sealed with clay. He broke the clay seal, opened the lid, and with a flick of his wrist, a bowl appeared in front of each person. These bowls were also very ordinary, just rough porcelain.

Zhao Hai then waved his hand, and the wine from the jar flew out, landing precisely in each bowl without a single drop spilling. The rich aroma of the wine wafted into everyone’s noses.

Everyone looked at the wine in their bowls; the liquid was a pale green, looking quite beautiful. Zhao Hai picked up his bowl and said, “Come on, everyone, drink this bowl!”

Everyone laughed and picked up their bowls. Although the bowls were very rough, they didn’t care at all, because they were too happy today.

Everyone downed their bowls of wine in one gulp, then exhaled a breath of alcohol and exclaimed in unison, “Old wine!” The wine was indeed excellent; it was smooth on the palate, even having a slightly cool sensation, but then it seemed to transform into a flame, burning from their mouths all the way to their stomachs, and then spreading throughout their bodies, as if giving them a baptism. The feeling was truly wonderful.

They placed their bowls on the table, and Zhao Hai glanced at them, then smiled and said, “This kind of wine is best enjoyed from bowls like these. What kind of wine deserves what kind of cup? This kind of wine must be drunk from a large, rough porcelain bowl like this.”

Hearing this, everyone chuckled softly. They didn’t really care about such luxuries, but in this joyous moment, having such a good bowl of wine made them genuinely happy.

Zhao Hai continued, “Today’s experiment was a success, which is great news for us. However, I hope that no one will tell anyone about this. Only our alliance members should know. What do you all think?”

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback at first, but then they all nodded. Zhao Hai was right; it was best not to let others know about this. This was their alliance’s secret.

Seeing everyone nod, Zhao Hai began, “We are an alliance, and I hope we will remain allies forever. However, this alliance has only been lip service so far. Now that we share a secret, I hope we can write a covenant. From today onward, we will be true allies. What do you all think?”

Everyone was taken aback, then exchanged glances and nodded. Ling Zhu said, “I agree. Only by becoming true allies can we keep secrets from each other. Furthermore, I think our alliance must have some strict rules; only then will our alliance be more solid.”

Everyone nodded, no one objecting. Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “Good, it’s good that everyone agrees. I will write this covenant. After I finish, everyone can take a look and see if there’s anything that needs to be added. Then we will sign this covenant.”

Everyone nodded. They were well aware that forming an alliance in the God Realm would definitely be beneficial to them.

Zhao Hai quickly drafted the alliance pact, which stipulated that no one could betray the alliance, nor could they reveal its secrets to others. All allies must help each other, and there were other strict rules as well.

After Zhao Hai finished writing it, he handed it to Ling Zhu and the others for review. They found the pact very detailed and needed no additions. Then, everyone wrote their names and spiritual imprints on the pact.

Just as they signed the pact, it suddenly ignited without any wind, then transformed into a golden light and disappeared. No one was surprised, as this signified the pact was complete.

Seeing that the alliance was established, Zhao Hai breathed a sigh of relief. He then looked at everyone and said, “Alright, from now on, we are truly one family. So I have nothing to hide anymore. What I’m going to talk about next is the matter of the underground palace flower and the soil being fused together. I know everyone is very happy and thinking that as soon as you get back, you will immediately fuse all the soil you have saved with the underground palace flower. But I want to say that everyone should not be in a hurry. Listen to me. I will give you a new option.”

Upon hearing his words, everyone looked at him with some confusion, unsure of Zhao Hai’s meaning. Zhao Hai glanced at them and continued, “I actually lied to you all before. I told you I didn’t have any more seeds of the Sky-Supporting Tree, but that’s not true. I have the seeds of the Sky-Supporting Tree, the Underground Palace Flower, and the Heavenly Vine I used to set up the magic array—in fact, I have many. The Underground Palace Flower can fuse with soil, which means the Sky-Supporting Tree and the Heavenly Vine can too. And that’s exactly what I wanted to say. Do you want an Underground Palace Flower, a Sky-Supporting Tree, or a Heavenly Vine?”

Everyone was stunned, then looked at Zhao Hai in shock. Zhao Hai glanced at them and said, “Let me first tell you about the characteristics of these three plants. The first is the Underground Palace Flower, which everyone already knows, so I won’t go into detail.” “Besides making people more comfortable, the underground palace flower has no other special features,”

Zhao Hai said. Everyone nodded in agreement. He continued, “The second plant is the Sky-Supporting Tree, the kind of tree I live in. The one I’m using now is a small Sky-Supporting Tree. The Sky-Supporting Tree can actually grow very large. The largest Sky-Supporting Tree can be a kingdom in itself, with a trunk a hundred meters thick and a height of ten thousand meters. You can even dig holes in its branches to live in, and build houses on its leaves. Of course, this tree is a growing tree; that is, as long as it has enough spiritual energy, it can keep growing and growing. I don’t know exactly how big it can grow, because back in my hometown, these trees always grew continuously.”

Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, everyone gasped. They had already thought highly of the Sky-Supporting Tree, but they hadn’t expected it to be even more powerful than they imagined, which greatly surprised them.

Zhao Hai continued, “Furthermore, once the Sky-Supporting Tree grows to a certain size, it can develop internal magic arrays. These arrays have defensive capabilities and are naturally formed, perfectly suited to the tree, making them even more powerful. The Sky-Supporting Tree can also fly, although its speed won’t be very fast, after all, it’s a tree.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up. This Sky-Supporting Tree was practically a natural divine kingdom. If they truly made it their divine kingdom, it would save them a lot of trouble.

Zhao Hai smiled slightly at their expressions and then said, “Of course, the Sky-Supporting Tree isn’t without its drawbacks. Once you choose it as your divine kingdom, it can only be tree-shaped, which will cause many problems.”

Everyone nodded. They agreed with Zhao Hai’s assessment. While the Sky-Supporting Tree was excellent in many ways, its tree-like shape made it difficult to transform into a good magical artifact. Therefore, whether or not to use the Sky-Supporting Tree as their divine kingdom was something they needed to carefully consider.

Zhao Hai continued, “Finally, there’s the Heavenly Vine. You’ve all seen me use it to build magic arrays, but the Heavenly Vine has many uses. It can transform into anything you can imagine. That is, it can become a ship, a room, or even grow countless branches that can form a city. Most importantly, it can grow leaves and bear fruit, both of which are edible. Furthermore, it can attack enemies at any time. If you use the Heavenly Vine well, it can definitely become a top-tier magic weapon that can be used for both offense and defense, and for both ranged and melee combat.”

Hearing Zhao Hai’s words, Ling Zhu and the others were all stunned. They hadn’t expected the Heavenly Vine to have so many uses; it was truly a surprise to them.

Zhao Hai observed their expressions and then continued, “These three plants each have their own characteristics. The Palace Flower has no potential and can only be used temporarily. The Sky-Reaching Tree will grow a bit slower, but once it matures, it will have some defensive capabilities, although its growth rate won’t be very fast. However, it will be the largest and will likely house the most people in the future. As for the Heavenly Vine, it has great growth potential and strong combat power, but it requires a high level of skill from the user because the magic arrays within the Heavenly Vine must be set up by the user themselves.”

Upon hearing Zhao Hai’s words, everyone fell into deep thought. Only Song Lin’s expression was not good, since he was currently using the Palace Flower, which had the least potential.

Seeing his expression, Zhao Hai smiled slightly and said, “Songlin, don’t worry. The potential of the Underground Palace Flower is small, but we should be able to extract the soil. The Underground Palace Flower is afraid of fire. As long as we burn the Underground Palace Flower, the soil should be extracted again, so don’t worry.”

Hearing Zhao Hai say this, Songlin finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Hai glanced at the others and then said, “There’s one more thing I need to tell everyone. We haven’t calculated the absorption ratio of the soil by the Sky-Supporting Tree and the Heavenly Vine yet. I think we should wait for me…” “Let’s conduct the experiments first, and then everyone can make a decision.”

Lingzhu was taken aback, then asked somewhat puzzled, “What absorption ratio?”

Zhao Hai explained, “I just thought of that term myself. Look at the Palace Flower; it absorbs three cubic meters of soil to meet the standard for becoming the foundation of a divine kingdom. Next, we’ll test how much soil the Sky-Supporting Tree and the Heavenly Vine need to absorb in the same area. That way, we can calculate which plant has the best cost-effectiveness. This is something I just thought of; let’s wait until after the experiments before making a decision.” (End of Chapter)
