Bringing the farm to another world
Chapter 16209 Revenge
Does the Earth Escape Technique have no advantages? Yes, of course it does. If one masters the Earth Escape Technique, although the speed is still not fast, the concealment will be much better. At the same time, it will be much more difficult to attack someone using the Earth Escape Technique with ordinary spells.
Ordinary earth-遁术 (earth-遁术) can only penetrate a few feet underground, at most about ten feet. At this distance, it is very easy to break the earth-遁术. Techniques such as Earth Shaking Technique and Quicksand Technique can break the earth-遁术, and may even trap the person using the earth-遁术.
However, once the Earth Escape Technique is mastered, the situation is completely different. Although the speed of the Earth Escape Technique is not fast, it is no longer very likely that ordinary spells can attack it.
If someone skilled in earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a technique used to burrow underground) were to enter the Temple of Creation from underground, then use sleeping pills to knock everyone inside unconscious before killing them, it would indeed be possible. Moreover, it would be difficult to detect outside the Temple of Creation, because once the earth-遁术 is mastered, its concealment greatly increases. Therefore, if someone were to use earth-遁术 to enter the Temple of Creation and kill someone, it would indeed be possible.
The cult leader said in a deep voice, "Don't we already have people on guard in our temple? Not only are there people on guard, but there are also sentries, both visible and hidden. If someone were to use earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows one to escape into the temple), they should be discovered by the people on guard, right?"
One of the bishops shook his head and said, "It's really unlikely. What if someone who uses earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows one to appear directly in a room? It would be difficult to find them. And someone skilled in using sleeping potions can make them float directly into various rooms. In that case, we would still fall for it and still have no way to find them."
The cult leader nodded, then frowned and asked, "So what's your plan?"
One of the bishops said, "We can divide the people in each temple into two groups. One group rests during the day and keeps watch at night, while the other group rests at night and works normally during the day. At the same time, we can arrange for everyone to be in pairs in one room, with one person resting during the day and the other at night. This way, we can ensure that at least one person is always awake. If the enemy really uses the earth-遁术 (earth-遁术 is a type of magic that allows one to escape underground), we can ensure that we can find them immediately."
The cult leader was taken aback. He hadn't expected the bishop to suggest such a simple method. He nodded and said, "That is indeed a good idea. We can give it a try. By the way, have you found any information about the people monitoring the Zhang and Hua families?"
One of the bishops shook his head and said, "No, there's nothing unusual about the Zhang and Hua families."
“Even if they did it, they would have already sent people out. Of course, there won’t be any unusual activity now. Continue to monitor them, but don’t let them find out.” Everyone responded, and then the cult leader waved his hand, signaling them to leave.
Qingmu City is a relatively large city in the Divine Kingdom, famous for its medicinal herbs. This is because the city is backed by a huge mountain range called Qingmu Ridge. Although it is called a ridge, the mountain is actually enormous. It is a very large mountain range, and most importantly, the climate of this mountain range is very favorable, so there are many spiritual herbs in this mountain range. Qingmu City is very large, and Qingmu City also has a city lord. However, there is a powerful force in Qingmu City that no one can afford to offend: the Zhang family.
The Zhang family is a famous and powerful family throughout the entire Divine Kingdom. They are extremely powerful and skilled in using poison, making them a force that no one wants to provoke.
Of course, the pills produced by the Zhang family are also of very high quality. With both high-quality pills and fearsome poisons, the Zhang family has been able to develop so quickly. In fact, in Qingmu City, there is a saying that the Zhang family owns half the city, meaning that the Zhang family's businesses occupy almost half of the city.
The current head of the Zhang family is named Zhang Ren. Zhang Ren is extremely powerful, having already reached the Kingdom level. His poison skills are unparalleled. He not only knows how to poison and detoxify, but he also possesses a unique poison technique. This so-called poison technique involves fusing poison with his own body. If he so desires, everything on his body can be poisonous, even his breath, which is highly toxic. This is precisely what makes the Zhang family so troublesome; you never know when you might unknowingly be poisoned by them.
Zhang Ren looks to be around sixty years old, but his hair is still thick and black, and he has a long beard, making him look very energetic.
Zhang Renzheng looked at the person standing in front of him with a smile and said, "So, another Temple of Creation has been slaughtered?"
The man nodded and said, "Yes, patriarch, another temple of creation has been destroyed. The people of the Creation Cult have not yet found the murderer."
"Hahaha, good, the Creation God Sect has finally met its match. I wonder who was behind this. The Creation God Sect suffered a lot of losses in the previous battle with the Myriad Laws God Sect. Now their temples have been attacked one after another. Their days are probably numbered."
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Zhang Ren immediately said, "Come in."
Immediately, a man pushed open the door and walked in. He bowed to Zhang Ren and said, "Master, we just received news that everyone in the family's pharmacy in the east of the city has been murdered. Everyone in the pharmacy is dead; there isn't a single survivor." Upon hearing this news, Zhang Ren was taken aback. His expression changed, and he immediately asked, "What happened?"
The man said, "Reporting to the family patriarch, we just discovered it. We don't know who did it. Today, when the family disciples were patrolling outside, they found that the pharmacy was not open, so they went to check and found that everyone in the shop was dead. There were five people in total, and not a single one survived."
Zhang Ren said in a deep voice, "Investigate, investigate immediately. I want to see who dares to lay a hand on our Zhang family."
Upon hearing Zhang Ren's words, the man quickly responded and then left the room. The smile on his face vanished, replaced by a murderous aura. In Qingmu City, no one had dared to touch the Zhang family for a long time. This time, not only had someone attacked the Zhang family, but they had also wiped out one of the Zhang family's shops in one fell swoop. This was like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth; how could he not be furious?
The man who had reported to Zhang Ren stood there obediently, not daring to move. Zhang Ren glanced at him and then said, "You can go now. Keep an eye on the Creation God Sect and see what else they're up to." The man acknowledged, bowed to Zhang Ren, and then turned and left.
After that person left, Zhang Ren sat there with a gloomy expression. He was really angry. He couldn't figure out who had the audacity to mess with the Zhang family in Qingmu City.
However, Zhang Ren believed that no matter who it was, news would come soon. He had confidence in his Zhang family, especially in Qingmu City, where it would be very easy for them to investigate anything.
Sure enough, less than an hour later, a man came to Zhang Ren's study. The man bowed to Zhang Ren and then said, "Master, we have found out that everyone in the shop was killed. Their throats were slit, and the way they died was the same as the way those people from the Creation God Sect died."
Zhang Renyi was taken aback, then his expression changed. He continued, "Those people are targeting our Zhang family? Investigate carefully and see if any suspicious people have entered Qingmu City in the past few days."
The man spoke up: "Patriarch, we have also discovered something else. We found members of the Creation God Cult in the city."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ren was taken aback, then his expression changed. He knew there was no Temple of Creation in Qingmu City. Because the Creation Sect had a grudge against the Zhang family, there had never been a Temple of Creation in Qingmu City. The Creation Sect had considered building one, but no one would grant them land. Even if they bought land from others, they couldn't build their temple. The Creation Sect had even considered buying rooms from others and converting them into a temple, but that didn't work either. Anyone from the Creation Sect who stayed in the city for a while would fall ill, and after several deaths, the Creation Sect finally gave up and stopped sending people there. Qingmu City was, in essence, a forbidden area for the Creation Sect.
Now that people from the Creation God Cult had actually appeared in the city, how could Zhang Ren not be surprised? He immediately asked, "How long have those people from the Creation God Cult been here?"
The man said, "According to our information, they have been here for at least five days. These people came to the city as independent cultivators and are scattered around the outskirts of the clan, as if they are monitoring us."
Zhang Ren snorted coldly and said, "Surveying us? What do they want to do? Do they think we're responsible for their deaths? What a joke. Investigate and see if the deaths of our family members are related to those members of the Creation God Cult."
The man said, "We have already investigated what the master said. On the surface, there is no connection. However, those people hide in their rooms at night and do not come out. No one knows what they do in their rooms, or even whether they come out at all. We cannot be sure about this matter yet."
"So that means it's possible they did it? Go, kill them, but don't do it during the day, do it tonight. Regardless of whether it's them or not, anyone from the Creation God Cult who dares to appear in Qingmu City must die." The man responded, bowed to Zhang Ren, and then left the room.
After the man left the room, Zhang Ren couldn't help but reveal a murderous aura. He snorted coldly and said, "Well, well, the Creation God Sect has actually set its sights on us. I'd like to see how many of you are good enough to die."
Zhang Ren would not be polite to the Creation God Cult. They already had a grudge against them, and now they certainly wouldn't hold back. Anyone from the Creation God Cult who dared to enter Qingmu City must die. This was a rule established by the Zhang family years ago, and he wouldn't allow anyone to break it. (End of Chapter)
