Bringing the farm to another world

Zhao Hai was also aware of the power of pollution; they had even conducted specialized research on this energy. This power was actually extremely formidable, and they had even used it before, quite effectively. To be honest, this power was both very useful and terrifying. It could transform you into something else without you even realizing it, which was the most terrifying aspect of this power of pollution. Zhao Hai had also thoroughly researched this power, so when he saw that Huai'an Kingdom had turned black, he knew that the entire country had been completely polluted.

Zhao Hai also studied the statue carefully today, and he is now certain that the statue is like a node, an avatar node of the God of Pride. The God of Pride set up a program for this node, which automatically absorbs the power of pride, distributes rewards, and can also issue tasks. It is quite useful.

Of course, Zhao Hai's previous guess was also correct. The God of Pride released the power of Pride through this node, which entered the bodies of all those who believed in the God of Pride, turning them into potential clones of the God of Pride, just like the Celestial Sphere was to Zhao Hai.

As for the power of arrogance, it was just as Zhao Hai had imagined. It was a very special high-level energy with various abilities. For example, this energy could modify the human body to a certain extent, making the body more suitable for absorbing spiritual energy. At the same time, it could mobilize the surrounding spiritual energy, making it more active and better integrated into the human body. This was the reward that the god of arrogance gave to his followers. In fact, calling it a reward meant that his followers were completely corrupted and controlled.

By this point, Zhao Hai had a pretty good understanding of the God of Pride's situation. In other words, the God of Pride's current situation was actually similar to Zhao Hai's. Zhao Hai was comprehending the power of runes, which allowed him to turn anything with runes into an avatar or an energy node of his, thus having the same function as that space.

Zhao Hai can also use the power of runes to modify a person's body, control the surrounding forces to make them more dynamic and easier to penetrate, and even make the runes release a corrupting power to completely corrupt a person. Once he has completely corrupted that person, that person becomes an avatar of his, and he can control that avatar like the God of Pride, making it live or die at will. It can be said that the path Zhao Hai is currently taking is the same as that of the God of Pride.

The God of Pride can live forever as long as he possesses the power of arrogance. As for Zhao Hai, he can live forever as long as the runes exist. Apart from Zhao Hai, no one else in the Blood Slaughter Sect can comprehend their own power of law to this extent.

Having read this far, Zhao Hai's understanding of the God of Pride was about right. He also knew what he would face if he were to deal with the followers of the God of Pride. To be precise, if he only dealt with a portion of the God of Pride's followers, the God of Pride wouldn't care, because he had too many followers, and it was normal for some to die. However, if he were to kill all the Gods of Pride in the Divine Realm, it would definitely attract the God of Pride's attention. After all, the God of Pride couldn't possibly be unaware of the deaths of a large number of followers.

Once the God of Pride discovers the mass deaths of his followers here, he will surely take notice. In that case, the God of Pride will appear, and that will be the time when their true danger arrives.

Zhao Hai was also thinking: if he were the God of Pride, and he discovered that his followers were being slaughtered in large numbers, and he wanted to help them, he would have to cross realms to help, which would greatly suppress his own power. What would he do then? He would definitely try every means to quickly improve the strength of those followers, perhaps even allowing them to reach their maximum power in a short period of time, to see if this could stop the enemy's attack. If this still couldn't stop the enemy's attack, then he would have no choice but to personally intervene.

At the same time, the arrogant power of the God of Arrogance is highly corrupting. Zhao Hai had previously predicted that if they encountered an enemy, the enemy's power would likely be highly corrupting. Therefore, all the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples made preparations for this defense, which was specifically designed to guard against corrupting power. The method devised by the Blood Slaughter Sect was actually quite simple: to use corrupting power to counter corrupting power.

The Blood Slaughter Sect transformed Buddhist power into a corrupting force, forcing every disciple to learn it. This effectively corrupted the disciples, making them susceptible to any other power that might attempt to corrupt them. However, expelling this power was no easy task, as its source was Zhao Hai. All the Buddha statues in the Blood Slaughter Sect had transformed into Zhao Hai's likeness, and the source of all Buddhist power had become him. In other words, all the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect were corrupted by Zhao Hai's power. Anyone else wishing to corrupt the disciples had to overcome Zhao Hai's influence, a formidable challenge given his immense strength. Anyone wanting to expel his power from the disciples would need to be far more powerful than Zhao Hai, which was virtually impossible.

Even the God of Arrogance, if he wanted to use his power of arrogance to corrupt the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect, he couldn't, because he couldn't expel the Buddhist power from their bodies. Although Zhao Hai already knew the situation with the God of Arrogance, he was still researching something else: the power of arrogance. Zhao Hai could do what the power of arrogance could do with his runic power, but not with the same smoothness and effortless ease. Because of this, Zhao Hai planned to thoroughly study this power of arrogance, which was far more powerful than his current runic power.

Zhao Hai only discovered this when he created the Pride Rune. The Pride Rune was indeed filled with the power of arrogance, but it was also a rune. If Zhao Hai's power was equal to, or even stronger than, that of the God of Pride, then the rune wouldn't be connected to the God of Pride. After all, it was just a rune, and the power of the rune was controlled by Zhao Hai. It was like two people fighting over something that originally belonged to Zhao Hai, but now Zhao Hai's power was weaker than the other's, so the other wanted to take it from Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai also noticed that the other's power was greater than his, but he wanted to know why. He considered himself quite powerful, yet the other's power was greater. This was precisely what Zhao Hai was most curious about and most wanted to understand.

If Zhao Hai could directly access this power, he would surely be able to quickly figure out what it was all about. Unfortunately, he couldn't directly study the power of arrogance because he knew very well that if he did, the God of Arrogance would definitely discover it, which would be too dangerous. Therefore, Zhao Hai could only study the power of arrogance slowly through his own observation. He wanted to see why the power of arrogance was stronger than his own.

In the following days, Zhao Hai kept observing the power of the God of Pride, constantly analyzing it. He wanted to know why the God of Pride's power was stronger than his own—was it because of longer training time, or something else?

If it's because of the long training time, then there's nothing that can be done. But if it's for other reasons, then it's a completely different story, and he'll try to make up for that gap.

While observing the power of the God of Pride, Zhao Hai kept simulating it to see which power was closest to that of the God of Pride.

He began experimenting with various powers. The power of runes alone wasn't enough; it couldn't compare to the power of the God of Pride. Adding Buddhist power to the power of runes didn't work either; it still wasn't enough. He then tried adding the power of faith, and found that while faith was indeed useful, it wasn't sufficient. He tried removing the Buddhist power, but that didn't work either. The Buddhist power couldn't be removed; once it was removed, it wouldn't be as powerful as the God of Pride. So he added the Buddhist power back into the power. Then he began trying to adjust the proportions of the three powers. After many experiments, Zhao Hai finally discovered the problem. He found that the best proportions of the three powers were equal, that is, a ratio of one to one to one. Only in this way could the simulated power most closely resemble the power of the God of Pride.

However, there is a problem here. It seems that the proportion of faith power in the God of Pride is too high. Zhao Hai also has a lot of faith power, all of which was provided to him by the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect. However, this faith power is different from his own power. In other words, the only thing he lacks compared to the God of Pride is this faith power.

After discovering this situation, Zhao Hai suddenly understood why he had always felt the need to recruit more people into the Blood Slaughter Sect and stay in the Divine Realm for a longer period before ascending. It was because of his faith power. His current faith power was insufficient, so recruiting more people into the Blood Slaughter Sect would increase his faith power. This way, when he reached the Upper Realm, he would be qualified to contend with an enemy like the God of Arrogance.

Zhao Hai never expected that the place where he was inferior to the God of Arrogance was actually the power of faith. This truly surprised him. However, after a moment's thought, he understood why. It was quite simple. The reason his power of faith was less than the God of Arrogance's was because the God of Arrogance, through a system similar to Huai'an Kingdom, had preached in countless realms. Therefore, he had countless followers, and because he had so many followers, his power of faith was also greater than Zhao Hai's. This was precisely where he was stronger than Zhao Hai. Apart from the power of faith, in other aspects, the God of Arrogance might not actually be able to compare to Zhao Hai. (End of Chapter)
