Bringing the farm to another world

"So, the Myriad Laws Cult has a magical artifact that can directly imprison people. How many people it can imprison at once is still unknown?" The leader of the Creation Cult asked a bishop standing in front of him.

The bishop nodded and said, "Yes, Your Holiness, this news came from those small families."

"It seems we underestimated the Myriad Laws Cult. We still know too little about them. We should learn more about them."

The bishop remained silent, standing there quietly, waiting for the pope to continue. The pope thought for a moment, then spoke: "Give up a hundred cities to expose more of them. We need to understand them better and see what they're up to. If they continue to attack us under these circumstances, then we'll have no choice but to fight back with all our might. We can't care about His Majesty's reputation anymore."

The bishop responded, and the pope waved his hand. He then bowed to the pope and left the pope's room.

Meanwhile, Gongliang Juewen was sitting in his room, listening to a report from a man in black. The report was similar to the information obtained by the Creation God Sect. After listening, Gongliang Juewen frowned and said, "So, the people of the Creation God Sect retreated as soon as they saw the people of the Myriad Laws God Sect enter Jinchuan City?"

The man in black responded, and Gongliang Juewen coldly laughed, "The people of the Creation God Sect are indeed clever. But I'd like to see just how far they'll back down. By the way, what are the reactions of those aristocratic families and sects?"

"Your Majesty, they have not reacted. The aristocratic families seem to be observing, while the sects seem to be completely indifferent to this matter."

"They're honest enough, and they know what's good for them. Alright, you may leave." The man in black responded, bowed to Gongliang Juewen, and then withdrew.

After that person left, Gongliang Juewen continued with his own business. As for the information that the Wanfa Dao Sect had a magic artifact that could imprison people, he didn't take it to heart. It would be really strange if the Wanfa Dao Sect didn't have such an ability, so he wasn't surprised.

The major families and sects all received the same message, and their reactions were similar. They did not want to get involved in the affairs of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and the Creation Divine Sect. Both the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and the Creation Divine Sect were extremely powerful, and they could not afford to provoke either of them individually. To deal with the Creation Divine Sect or the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, they had to unite, but uniting was not an easy task.

After resolving the matter in Jinchuan City, Xu Ying and his group immediately moved on to the next city. This time, their operation went very smoothly. As soon as they entered the city, the people from the Creation God Sect withdrew, and none of the minor families in the city dared to provoke them. They smoothly took over some of the Creation God Sect's businesses. The people from the Creation God Sect did not dispose of their businesses when they retreated. Even if they wanted to, the minor families would not dare to take them over, and the powerful families would not want to take them over either, because taking them over would be tantamount to offending the Myriad Laws God Sect, and the outcome would probably not be good.

If the Myriad Laws Cult truly fails and the Creation Cult returns to those cities, how could they forget those properties? Therefore, taking over those properties would be tantamount to offending both the Creation Cult and the Myriad Laws Cult simultaneously, something they would not do.

Xu Ying and the others were a little unaccustomed to things going so smoothly. They hadn't expected things to go so easily, but this only made Xu Ying more curious. He also wanted to see just how far the Creation God Sect would go.

With this in mind, Xu Ying and the others sped up their journey into each city: one city, two cities, three cities, ten cities, fifty cities, one hundred cities.

In less than a month, Xu Ying and his group occupied a hundred cities. As soon as Xu Ying entered those cities, the members of the Creation God Cult would immediately retreat, making their takeover incredibly smooth.

Just after Xu Ying and his group took over one hundred cities, when they entered the one hundred and first city, Xu Ying discovered a problem: the people in the Temple of Creation in this city had not left.

This surprised Xu Ying for a moment, but then everyone understood. The Creation God Sect was no longer willing to concede. They had ceded one hundred cities, but from now on, they wouldn't concede any more. Xu Ying immediately summoned several elders to his room. After they were all seated, he spoke, "The Creation God Sect hasn't left, which means they won't back down. From now on, we'll have to fight them for territory with real force. This is exactly what we want. What are your thoughts?"

"The sect sent us to fight the Creation God Cult to draw the attention of everyone in the Divine Kingdom. The Creation God Cult's previous retreat had diverted their attention away from us, but they still wanted to see just how far the Creation God Cult would back down. Now that the Creation God Cult is no longer retreating, it means that our battle with the Creation God Cult is about to begin again, and they might be even more interested in that."

Everyone nodded, and Xu Ying continued, "Then let's prepare for war with the Creation Sect. But this time, it won't be as easy as before. The Creation Sect might go all out against us this time. However, one thing is certain: our battleground might not be in the city."

Everyone nodded. Just then, there was a knock on the door. Xu Ying was startled, then said, "Come in." The door opened, and a Blood Slaughter Sect disciple walked in. He bowed to Xu Ying and said, "Bishop, we just received news that the Divine Kingdom has issued a ban on martial arts. From now on, martial arts are not allowed in any city of the Divine Kingdom. Anyone who dares to use martial arts in the city will be executed on the spot."

Upon hearing this order, Xu Ying was taken aback. His expression changed, and he fell into deep thought before saying, "It seems they're coming for us."

Everyone nodded. This order had come at the worst possible time, clearly aimed at them and the Creation God Cult, preventing them from taking action in the city.

An elder spoke up: "If we can't fight inside the city, then we can only fight outside the city. But we can't wager like before, the Creation God Cult won't agree to that. So we can only take action against the Creation God Cult's properties outside the city."

Upon hearing his words, everyone nodded. They all understood what the elder meant. They indeed could not take action against the Creation God Cult in the city, so they could only take action outside the city. As the state religion of the God Kingdom, the Creation God Cult had many businesses. Shops and the like were just small businesses that were not worth mentioning. The businesses that were truly respectable were all mines and the like.

With so many members in the Creation God Sect, all of whom are cultivators, how many magical artifacts would these cultivators need? If all of these artifacts were bought from outside, how much would it cost? Not only magical artifacts, but also pills. If all of these things were bought, it wouldn't just be a matter of spending a lot of money. If one day, a war broke out between you and the person who sold you the pills, would they still sell them to you? If they were to seize you by the neck, you would be finished. Therefore, the Creation God Sect also has its own mines and medicinal gardens. Most of these mines and medicinal gardens are not located in the city, but in some mountains outside the city or in some secluded places. These are the true assets of a powerful force.

Previously, the battle between the Myriad Laws Divine Sect and the Creation Divine Sect did not involve attacks on those properties because it was unnecessary. As long as the people from the Creation Divine Temple in the city retreated, it meant they had won, and the people from the Creation Divine Sect in those properties would naturally retreat as well. So, all they needed to do was take over. However, now that the people from the Creation Divine Sect are not retreating, and the Divine Kingdom does not allow them to use force in the city, they can only take action outside the city. Therefore, attacking those properties is absolutely necessary.

Xu Ying said in a deep voice, "Then let's do it this way. We'll take action against the properties outside the City of the God of Creation. However, we can't disrespect the God of Creation. They gave up a hundred cities at once, which is to tell us that this is their bottom line. This is also to give face to Gongliang Juewen. If we attack again, they will retaliate. So we should also give them face. Before attacking their properties, we should inform them and not attack their properties without warning."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, then they all responded. No one objected to doing so. They were simply informing the Creation God Cult that they were going to attack the Creation God Cult's properties outside the city. The Creation God Cult would definitely react. Although it seemed a bit redundant, they had to do it; it was their principle.

The Blood Slaughter Sect sometimes acts in a seemingly rigid and outdated way, but they have to do it this way because it is their bottom line, and they cannot cross it.

Of course, if the enemy doesn't follow any rules from the very beginning and attacks them directly without any scruples, they won't be polite either. Their bottom line is also very flexible, and their principles are only for those who uphold them. They won't use principles to trap those who don't uphold them.

The Blood Slaughter Sect's approach to dealing with unruly individuals has always been: "I'll be even more unruly than you." Conversely, their approach to dealing with rule-abiding individuals is: "Then we'll be even more rule-abiding than you." This isn't outdated thinking, but rather a form of absolute self-confidence. If you want to play dirty tricks, I'll play along; if you don't want to play dirty tricks, I'll still play along. Regardless of whether you play dirty tricks or not, I'm confident I can deal with you anytime. That's the Blood Slaughter Sect's confidence.

Of course, they couldn't simply send someone to inform the Cult of Creation that they were going to attack their properties outside the city; that would be childish. Their approach was actually quite simple: first, attack the Cult of Creation's properties outside the city to let them know their intentions. (End of Chapter)
