Bringing the farm to another world

Seeing that Zhao Hai had read the contents of the jade slip, the God of Trade smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, is there anything else you need to trade? If so, we can begin the trade now."

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "No, to be honest, I came here because of the Tibetans, hahaha. To put it bluntly, I'm being hunted down right now. Aren't you afraid of offending people if you make a deal with me?"

The God of Trade was taken aback, then shook his head and smiled, saying, "I'm just trading with you, not helping you deal with them. What's the point of offending anyone? Besides, you don't think I'm incapable of protecting myself, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Hai laughed heartily and said, "Alright, it seems I underestimated you, fellow Daoist. But I really don't need anything right now. How about this, fellow Daoist, let's exchange contact information. If I ever need anything, I'll contact you again. What do you say?"

The God of Trade nodded, then with a flick of his hand, an iron plaque appeared in his hand. The plaque looked unremarkable, and he simply tossed it to Zhao Hai, saying, "Here, take this. You can use this to contact me. If you need anything, just come to me. Don't worry, I'll definitely find it for you."

Zhao Hai accepted the iron plaque and then smiled, saying, "Alright, thank you very much." The God of Trade smiled slightly and said, "You're too kind, fellow Daoist. We'll meet again someday." After saying that, he moved and disappeared.

After he disappeared, the large ship set sail again, heading straight into the Black Sea Market. It then found a place to stop, and of course, the ship was also revolving around the sun.

Zhao Hai glanced at the large ship, then moved swiftly, appearing outside the Black Sea Market, on the outskirts of the Black Sea. Zhao Hai possessed this ability, allowing him to teleport anywhere he flew over, thus enabling him to freely leave the Black Sea.

Once outside the Black Sea Market, Zhao Hai casually found a spot and hid himself using a magic array. He needed to properly process the two pieces of intelligence he had obtained that day.

The first piece of information was about the realm of gods. No one knows how big the realm of gods is, because so far, no god has been able to find the end of the realm of gods. However, all gods have one idea: the realm of gods is the center of the universe.

In the realm of gods, there are no native inhabitants. All the people here ascended from the lower realms. When they first ascended, they were generally called wandering gods, or new gods. They had no territory or followers here, and their strength was at its weakest. However, since they had comprehended a law to the point that they could become immortal, they were indeed immortal. Therefore, they were still gods, but only the lowest-ranking wandering gods.

The next level above wandering spirits is called ghost spirits. When they reach the realm of ghost spirits, they can use their spiritual power to explore other realms. However, at this point, they can only use their spiritual power to explore other realms. If they find other realms with their spiritual power, their spiritual power will enter that realm, find the people in that realm, and then use their spiritual power to achieve the effect of entering a dream. In the dream, they can make that person become their believer. This is a process of recruiting believers.

Because there are no native inhabitants in the God Realm, and many people who have just entered the God Realm have no followers because they have been comprehending their own laws, they need to be nourished by the spiritual energy of the God Realm to become stronger. Only in the God Realm can you find other realms through your spiritual power and then develop followers.

A power slightly stronger than ghosts and gods is the Earth God. Reaching this level is not easy. It means you have at least ten thousand followers who have built temples for you in their realms and provided you with the power of faith. Only such a person can be called an Earth God. The highest level of Earth God is to have one million followers. Only when you truly reach the Earth God level can you establish your own divine kingdom. The so-called divine kingdom is actually a piece of land that belongs to you. Of course, in the divine realm, your land can be any kind of land. If you have money and can collect various materials, you can build your divine kingdom into the shape of a magical artifact. You can command your divine kingdom to fly around. But if you don't have money, you can only build a small divine kingdom. This divine kingdom cannot move. It may just be a flat area made up of some earth elements that you have collected, with a simple protective shield on top. It may just be a small village of a few dozen people or a small courtyard.

You can think of the God of Trade's great ship as a divine kingdom, and imagine yourself creating a flat area with earth elements, building a courtyard that can only house a few dozen people—that too is a divine kingdom. The difference between divine kingdoms is enormous. Above earth gods are heavenly gods. The minimum standard for a heavenly god is to have one million followers, while the highest level is to have one hundred million followers, and a large portion of these followers must reside in the divine realm.

Above the gods, there are primordial spirits. A primordial spirit must have followers in at least one realm. Moreover, a primordial spirit can create things from nothing. Of course, it can only create items that it knows, and it must have a thorough understanding of those items before it can create them.

Above the primordial spirit, there is the creator god. The creator god can create a world and all things. Most importantly, the creator god can leave his name in the void, which means that he can have his own territory in the void.

Above the creator god is the primordial god, who is incredibly powerful. He can not only create a world, but also create the Three Realms and Six Paths, and establish the cycle of reincarnation. In other words, he can write the laws of a world himself.

Above the Primordial God is the Cosmic God, who is truly immortal, indestructible, and eternal. He can even create his own universe, which can contain multiple realms.

You could say that once you become a god of the universe, you are truly connected to the universe. You will not die if the universe does not explode, and you may not die even if the universe explodes. Of course, such a god of the universe only exists in legends, and no one has ever seen one.

In the realm of gods, the power of faith becomes extremely important. Faith can help gods enhance their strength and also help them lock onto other realms. There are countless realms in the universe, and although there are many gods in the realm of gods, there are even more realms. Locking onto a realm is no easy task for a god. Even if you lock onto a realm, you need sufficient spiritual power to enter that realm. Even after entering the realm, you still need to find the people within that realm. Each realm is vast, and finding someone within it is extremely difficult—almost like finding a needle in a haystack. And once you find them, you must slowly cultivate them into your followers—this is the most crucial aspect.

Once you have followers and a temple in a certain realm, you can plunder resources from that realm. Where do the gods in the divine realm get their resources? They actually plunder them from other realms, just like the God of Creation, who also plundered a lot of resources from the divine kingdom.

Of course, if you want others to believe in you, you can't just talk about it without giving them anything in return. So many gods initially made some investment, but this investment was relatively low. And most gods start exploring different planes from the stage of ghosts and spirits. If they can find a plane without other gods, they will enter the dream and slowly lure the other person into becoming their believer.

Moreover, even if someone becomes their follower, they won't initially receive anything from them. They'll only help them improve their strength. Improving the strength of those followers is relatively easy. Gods can utilize the most abundant and omnipresent resources in the divine realm to enhance the strength of those in the lower realm. This resource is the spiritual energy of the divine realm. The concentration of spiritual energy in the divine realm is much higher than in the lower realm, and it's also active spiritual energy. This kind of spiritual energy is extremely helpful to cultivators. However, if you only use this spiritual energy to improve your strength, and your foundation is unstable, then your cultivation will be greatly affected. You might even find it difficult to make any further progress in this life. Unless, after borrowing the spiritual energy of the divine realm to improve your strength, you are willing to spend hundreds of years slowly digesting this spiritual energy and making it completely your own, then you might have a chance to start improving your strength again.

For example, back in the Divine Kingdom, the God of Creation used the spiritual energy of the Divine Realm to instantly elevate a soldier cultivator's strength to the Kingdom level. However, because his understanding of the laws and his cultivation of the mind had not reached the Kingdom level, and even his control over the spiritual energy within his body was not perfect, he was unable to unleash his full power. Therefore, such a person was called a pseudo-King level cultivator. Their strength was sufficient to deal with King level cultivators, but against Kingdom level cultivators, it was simply not enough. This was the consequence of the God of Creation forcibly elevating their strength using the spiritual energy of the Divine Realm.

In the Divine Kingdom, pseudo-kingdom level experts like these usually reach their limit and will never have another chance to improve their strength in this lifetime. This is the experience of the people in the Divine Kingdom.

However, their strength can actually be improved. If they were willing to spend hundreds of years slowly refining the spiritual energy within their bodies, their strength could indeed increase, and they could even ascend to immortality without being affected. It's just a pity that people often lack such patience. (End of Chapter)
