Bringing the farm to another world

Chapter 16149 The Shadow Guard

Zhao Hai looked at the raging god, then smiled slightly and said, "Not bad, your methods are indeed impressive, but if that's all, then it won't do any good to me."

The God of Wrath's face was full of rage. He roared, "Don't be so smug, take this punch!" As he spoke, the flames on his body grew higher and higher until he became a human torch. The human torch grew larger and larger until it was about a thousand meters tall. Then he threw a punch at Zhao Hai.

His punch was incredibly fast, and with it, the surrounding space burst into green flames, engulfing Zhao Hai completely. However, the two enormous runes Zhao Hai had released remained unaffected.

Zhao Hai remained calm. He glanced at the surrounding green flames, which were the power of the raging god. This power had no effect on him. As the giant fist of green flames drew closer, Zhao Hai simply extended a finger and pointed it forward. With his movement, a giant finger composed of countless runes crashed into the fist.

With a deafening roar, the green fiery fist and the runic fingers vanished simultaneously. Zhao Hai remained standing there calmly, while the fire-man formed from the God of Wrath seemed even angrier, roaring, "You dare to hide? You're courting death!"

As he spoke, he reached out again, this time grabbing directly at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai frowned at his attack and said, "Is this all you have to offer? If this is all you have to offer, then you might as well die."

After saying that, Zhao Hai waved his hand, and with his movement, the two huge runes that were one above the other suddenly came together. As the two runes moved, all the green flames around them were absorbed into the two runes, and the fire giant slowly shrank.

The fire giant roared repeatedly, but it was powerless against the two runes. In the end, the two runes merged together, and the God of Wrath vanished completely.

Zhao Hai's intervention in eliminating the God of Wrath dealt a significant blow to those in that realm. Coupled with their already inferior strength against the Blood Slaughter Sect, they were now even more vulnerable. Soon, everyone in that realm was wiped out. After their deaths, they couldn't transform into undead; their bodies turned into green flames and vanished. After dealing with the God of Wrath's clone, no more clones appeared. Zhao Hai wasn't surprised; the God of Wrath had likely realized he was no match for Zhao Hai and therefore saw no need to reappear.

After resolving that interface, Zhao Hai's attention returned to the Divine Kingdom. Meanwhile, the Blood Slaughter Sect had already taken over all the other sects and was preparing to attack the villages.

The process of taking down those sects went very smoothly without any unexpected incidents. After all, the Blood Slaughter Sect had already learned about the situation of those sects through Li Wen and his group. Li Wen and his group had been monitoring those sects for so many years, how could those sects still have any secrets that they hadn't discovered? With this intelligence, the Blood Slaughter Sect easily took down those sects.

In just one night, all twelve sects, along with all the markets they controlled, became the territory of the Blood Slaughter Sect. Fortunately, there were no accidents. To ensure the success of this operation, Chang Jun deployed a full thousand alien cavalry to oversee the operation. It was precisely because of these alien cavalry that the capture of those sects was so smooth.

Li Wen and the others who had recently joined the Blood Slaughter Sect also participated in this operation. During their participation, they truly witnessed the prowess of the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples.

Li Wen was different from the others. He had actually seen the army of the Divine Kingdom use military formations before, but after seeing the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect use military formations, he was certain that the army of the Divine Kingdom was absolutely no match for the disciples of the Blood Slaughter Sect in terms of military formations. The military formations of the Blood Slaughter Sect were too powerful.

It's important to understand that the army here in the Divine Kingdom still uses basic planar formations. They can change formations, but their battle formations are far inferior to those of the Blood Slaughter Sect. The Blood Slaughter Sect's battle formations incorporate magical arrays—something he'd never encountered before. He hadn't expected the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples to use their battle formations to such an extent, almost instinctively. Countless people formed a three-dimensional battle formation that could freely deform, switch states, and alter its magical arrays. This was astonishing, and he resolved to thoroughly study the Blood Slaughter Sect's battle formation techniques.

At this moment, Chang Jun directly summoned everyone into the Real Illusion. After they arrived, Chang Jun looked at them and said, "Alright, everyone's here. Now let's talk about our next move. All the sects in Beast Town City are now ours. What we need to do next is to turn all the civilians into our own people. However, there are too many villages in this area. Turning all the people in those villages into our own people will be a bit troublesome. What are your thoughts?" Everyone was silent for a moment, and then an elder spoke up, "Let's attack in sections. We can divide the area where the ordinary people live into several sections, and then we'll attack one section at a time. The sections shouldn't be too small or too large, and the operation must be clean and efficient."

Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded in agreement. There were simply too many villages for him to conquer, and taking them all would be no easy task. Therefore, attacking in sections was the best approach. Although there weren't any particularly powerful figures among the villagers, the sheer number of them meant that if a few slipped through the net and witnessed the Blood Slaughter Sect's actions, it would cause real trouble.

At this moment, Chang Jun spoke up: "That is indeed a good idea, but you must also remember that when we dealt with those villages before, some of them had teleportation arrays. Everyone must be careful about that."

Everyone nodded, but Li Wen's expression changed when he heard Chang Jun say that. He immediately turned to Chang Jun and asked, "Elder Chang, you just said that there are teleportation arrays in some villages. What's going on?"

When Chang Jun heard Li Wen say this, he was taken aback. Then he looked at Li Wen with some confusion and said, "Elder Li, you don't know about this? There are teleportation arrays in some villages, and the people who set up those teleportation arrays are the Shadow Guards. The Shadow Guards also sent some injured people who could no longer participate in the battle to see those teleportation arrays. As the commander of the Shadow Guards in this area, don't you know about this?"

Upon hearing Chang Jun's words, Li Wen's face immediately turned extremely ugly. He immediately said to Chang Jun, "Elder Chang, this is truly the first time we've heard of this matter. We've never heard of it before."

Chang Jun was taken aback, then his expression changed. He continued, "You don't know about this, but those people and the teleportation array are real. That means those people weren't sent by you. They were probably sent by someone higher up in your ranks, and they were sent without your knowledge."

Li Wen nodded, his face extremely grim. He said in a deep voice, "It seems that the people in the Shadow Guard don't trust us very much either. They probably arranged those people to guard against us. If we really collude with Kong Youwei and want to do something in Beast Town City, they can send people to suppress us immediately through those teleportation arrays. These guys are not easy to deal with."

Everyone nodded, and Li Wen continued, "I just don't know if those people were planted by the Shadow Guards of the Great City or by people from the Shadow Guard headquarters."

Chang Jun said in a deep voice, "We really didn't ask those people before. We only knew they were from the Shadow Guard. I always thought they were people you arranged, but I didn't expect it wasn't. But it doesn't matter, I'll ask them now." After saying that, Chang Jun directly asked the people guarding the teleportation array who gave them the orders.

The answers from those individuals were remarkably consistent: they all received orders from headquarters. They were originally members of different Shadow Guard divisions, but after being injured and unable to fight, they suddenly received orders from headquarters to go into hiding in various locations. They never expected things to turn out this way.

Chang Jun told Li Wen what those people had said. After listening to Chang Jun, Li Wen's expression softened slightly. He then said, "I think I know what's going on. They've confirmed that these people are Shadow Guards, and they might even be the legendary Shadow Guards."

Chang Jun looked at Li Wen with some confusion and asked, "What is the Shadow Guard?"

Chang Jun began, “The so-called Shadow Guard is the most mysterious department within the Shadow Guard. Apart from a few individuals, no one knows how many people are in the Shadow Guard, let alone their identities. It is said that the Shadow Guard is specifically used by the Shadow Guard to monitor the entire world. Apart from that, there is no other information. Even we insiders don’t know what the Shadow Guard does or how many people there are.”

He paused here, then continued, "I originally thought that the Shadow Guards were spies sent by the Dark Shadow Guards to various sects, but I didn't expect it to be so simple. These Shadow Guards are actually infiltrating various villages. This is something that probably no one expected. After all, there are explicit regulations in the Divine Kingdom that cultivators cannot easily contact civilians. Because this regulation has been in effect for many years, everyone has now developed a habit. Although cultivators and civilians live in the same area, most of the time, civilians can't see cultivators at all, and cultivators won't easily see civilians either. Of course, no one would think that the Dark Shadow Guards would arrange for people to live among ordinary people."
