Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 15600 Crisis
Elder Su, who appeared to be in his thirties, wore a scholar's robe, but his presence was like a sharp sword. He was a sword cultivator, though not yet very strong. Elder Su looked at them and then spoke, "I've asked the ghost cultivators in our sect about this. They said they've never seen this method before, and they don't know how the people of the Seven Realms managed to do it. They have to be very selective when they want to refine a ghost object; it's not like any random corpse can be turned into one. If the corpse suffered too many injuries in life, it can't be used to refine a ghost object. If the body was too powerful in life, it also can't be used to refine a ghost object." The corpse was incredibly powerful in life. Even after death, its physical strength remained several times, even dozens of times, greater than other corpses. Such a powerful corpse was beyond their ability to be refined. Furthermore, if a corpse remained in a place with abundant yang energy for a long time, it couldn't be refined into a ghost. To be refined into a ghost, three conditions generally needed: first, the corpse's strength in life wasn't very high; second, it hadn't suffered serious injuries; and third, the place where it died was a place with extremely heavy yin energy. Only corpses meeting these conditions could be refined into ghosts. If refining ghosts were so easy, wouldn't these ghost cultivators be invincible?

He paused here, allowing everyone to process what he had said, before continuing, "But look at how those people from the Blood Slaughter Sect were resurrected. Some had their heads severed, some even had their bodies pierced. Under normal circumstances, such people cannot be refined into other forms of magic, especially in a place like a battlefield. Most importantly, they didn't sense a single fluctuation of Yin energy. You must know that the most important thing in refining ghosts is Yin energy, Yin-attribute energy, but none of that was there. Those people were directly resurrected and then joined the Seven Universes Realm. Most importantly, they even retained their strength from their previous lives, which is even more impossible. They've never even heard of such a thing. So they really can't do it. The method the people of the Seven Universes Realm use to resurrect people is something they've never seen or heard of before. So they're almost going crazy now. They want to obtain this method, but they can't. This is driving them all to the brink of madness."

Everyone was stunned by his words. They exchanged glances and then shook their heads. To be honest, they really didn't know what to say. Even the ghost cultivators reacted this way, let alone them. It seemed that this method of resurrecting people was indeed unique to the Seven Realms. It would be almost impossible for them to figure it out in a short time.

Sima Wuyan then spoke up, "If we can't learn or understand this method, we won't be able to find a way to counter it. This isn't good for us. Right now, our battles with the Seven Realms are still few, so this method isn't very effective. But once the conflict escalates, more people will die. What if they resurrect all those people? Their numbers will grow while ours dwindle—that's terrifying. Speaking of which, I remembered something else. I asked my family before, and they said they didn't discover this ability when we fought the Seven Realms. But perhaps they just didn't notice it. They probably always had this ability, because when we fought them before, they looted all the corpses on the battlefield." "After we left, there's something else very frightening. Our Sima family originally had a garrison in the Wood Spirit Realm, though only about five thousand strong. But ever since we discovered the Ten Thousand Serpent Wall they built, all of our Sima family's garrison has died. Their soul tablets were all shattered. We initially thought they were dead, but seeing this situation today, I think they might have been resurrected. If they really have been resurrected and retain their memories from their previous lives, then the most terrifying thing has happened: the people of the Seven Realms might have obtained our Sima family's cultivation methods through them. Even if it's only a method that reaches the Throne level, it's still a cultivation method. I even suspect that the sudden increase in strength among those people in the Seven Realms might be related to this. What do you think?" After saying this, Sima Wuyan glanced at everyone.

Everyone understood the purpose of Sima Wuyan's words. He was explaining why the Sima family hadn't told them about this before—because they didn't know before, and their cultivation techniques might have been leaked. If that were true, then the fact that so many people had died and then resurrected, and that people from various sects and families were all gone, meant that their sects' cultivation techniques had also been leaked. Thinking of this, everyone's expression changed. This was definitely not good news for them. They had been maintaining a knowledge blockade against the people of the Meteorite Domain. Cultivation techniques were extremely rare in the Meteorite Domain; if this were true, it would be very dangerous.

Qingyu's face turned extremely ugly. He had never really thought about this before. Now, after hearing Sima Wuyan say this, he realized that their cultivation techniques could be leaked in this way, which was truly impossible to guard against.

Most importantly, just as Sima Wuyan said, their conflict is not significant yet. If a major war were to break out, and a large number of people died on the battlefield, only to come back to life and attack them in the blink of an eye, that would be terrifying. It would mean that their numbers would dwindle as they fought, while the people of the Seven Realms would increase.

Master Qingyu glanced at everyone and then asked, "How should we deal with this situation? Does anyone have any good ideas?" Master Qingyu looked at everyone, and they all fell silent, not saying a word for a moment.

After a while, an elder from one of the families spoke up: "There's only one way now. Notify everyone involved in the battle that if anyone dies, immediately collect their body and send it to the rear. I think we might even need to assign someone specifically to do this. What do you all think?" Everyone was taken aback by his words, but then their eyes lit up, and they all nodded. Even Qingyu nodded, saying, "That's a good idea. And we can not only take the bodies of our own people, but also those from the Seven Realms. If we take their bodies too, they won't be able to revive those people, and their numbers will be reduced. What do you all think?"

Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement. They thought this was a good idea, and Daoist Qingyu's addition was even better. Indeed, as long as someone died in battle, their body would be taken away, making it impossible for the people of the Seven Realms to be resurrected. In that case, the Seven Realms would be like them, dwindling in number with each battle. This was indeed a good thing for them.

Master Qingyu spoke up, "Is there any other way?" Everyone fell silent again. They really couldn't think of any good ideas. Thinking of this, Master Qingyu said directly, "If there's no other way, we'll use this method for now. Alas, I never thought that one day we would be fighting with the enemy for corpses. Who would believe this if I told them?"

No one spoke, and their expressions were not good. They had never expected this day to come. At this moment, Sima Wuyan spoke up: "Let's talk about the second point, which is about the people in the Seven Realms using teleportation arrays. They must carry a teleportation array on them, which allows them to teleport away at any time. This is also a great threat to us."

Everyone fell silent. To be honest, the two difficult problems posed to them by the people of the Seven Realms were indeed increasingly difficult to solve. Just then, Daoist Qingyu spoke up, "Actually, this matter also shows that we underestimated the magic array techniques of the people of the Seven Realms. Their magic array techniques might be even more powerful than ours. Let's not even talk about the teleportation array; just look at the Ten Thousand Serpent Wall. We don't even know how that Ten Thousand Serpent Wall was built. Who dares to say that their magic array techniques are weaker than ours? They might actually be stronger than us. If that's the case, then it's even more dangerous. What do you all think?"

Everyone fell silent. They really didn't want to be silent, but they were truly silent because they didn't know what to say. They originally thought that with their strength, they could easily kill their way to the Ten Thousand Serpent Wall and then find a way to break through the city. But now, they hadn't even reached Qi Yu's attack range before they were attacked. They really didn't know what to do in this situation. Thinking of this, everyone became even more silent.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Master Qingyu continued, "If our guesses are all true, then we have severely underestimated the Seven Realms. I think we must prepare for a long-term battle. We must eliminate them. If we fail to eliminate them and allow them to develop further, they will definitely turn around and attack us in the future, which will be very dangerous for us. Therefore, the stronger they are, the more we must eliminate them, because they are enemies of all of us, which is the most terrifying aspect. So we must report this matter to all sects and families, so that they are all aware of the situation here." All sects and families should prepare early. Everyone, we can no longer view the Seven Realms with the same perspective as before. The Seven Realms are vastly different now. Their strength has grown formidable. If they were to launch a counterattack, it would be extremely dangerous. The most crucial factor is their teleportation ability. Imagine, if they attack us, they can appear anywhere in the Meteorite Domain at any time. If that were to happen, it would be incredibly dangerous. All our sects and families would be in peril, which is something we do not wish to see. Therefore, the Seven Realms must be eliminated.”
