Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 2197: Elder’s Probe

Upon hearing the cultivator, Wei Tiande didn’t respond for a while. He stared at the cultivator for some time before he said, “What did you say? Zhao Ling completed the mission? How is that possible?”

The cultivator smiled bitterly and said, “He has indeed completed the mission. He even fought against Chen Liang to a draw. Only once he drove Chen Liang away did Zhao Ling return to hand in his mission.”

Wei Tiande’s complexion sank, “Is there something wrong with Zhao Ling?”

Wei Tiande knew very well that there weren’t many cultivators who could jump ranks in battle power. Therefore, Zhao Hai’s performance shocked him. He began to suspect that Zhao Hai was someone from another sect sent to the Battle Corpse Sect to act as a spy.

The cultivator shook his head and said, “Zhao Ling might have a high level of battle prowess, he only knows a set of claw techniques. However, his claw technique has been practiced to a very high mastery. It’s because of this mastery that he was able to survive under Chen Liang’s attacks. The battle between the two only stopped because other cultivators were beginning to gather around them. If they continued fighting, Zhao Ling might be the one to suffer.”

Hearing this, Wei Tiande’s eyes shone, then he said, “What level of master did Zhao Ling reach in his claw technique?”

The cultivator replied, “It’s possible that he reached the unity realm, or even higher.”

Wei Tiande couldn’t help but exclaim, “The unity stage? Or even higher? Can he reach the Grade Dao Stage? That’s impossible. With his cultivation, it’s impossible for him to reach such a high level of mastery. Even if he practiced before he was born, it’s impossible for him to reach that stage.”

The cultivator replied, “But Zhao Ling did reach that stage while being in the Soul Fusion Stage. His martial arts are very formidable. It’s enough to make the spectators afraid.”

Wei Tiande nodded, then he waved his hand and said, “Alright, you can head back. Remember to keep this matter a secret. Nobody can know what we discussed.” The cultivator complied and then left.

Seeing the cultivator leaving, Wei Tiande frowned. Now he was more curious about Zhao Hai. He felt that Zhao Hai didn’t only depend on luck when finding the green gold ore. He should have other secrets. But as to what that secret was, Wei Tiande didn’t know.

At the same time, Zhao Hai reaching the unity stage in his claw technique surprised Wei Tiande. Naturally, he didn’t believe that Zhao Hai could reach the grand dao stage. This was because it was basically impossible.

Wei Tiande walked around his room a few times, but he still felt unsatisfied. Then his eyes flashed with determination before he left his chambers.

Zhao Hai returned to his room with his measly 100 points. Although the reward was lackluster in Zhao Hai’s eyes, the Blue Sky Tree and the Green Gold Ore were enough to make the trip worthwhile.

Most importantly, Zhao Hai managed to find out that there were more secrets in Blue Sky Mountain. If he obtained this secret, the Space would be improved even more.

By this point, Zhao Hai was more curious regarding the underground world. In addition to the Earthfire Pillars, there were also the secrets of Blue Sky Mountain. It seems like the underground world was a place with plenty of unusual things. There were still places that Zhao Hai has yet to explore. Who knows how many good things were waiting to be uncovered.

As Zhao Hai was thinking about these things, he suddenly felt a disturbance in the room’s formations. Then shortly after, the defensive formation was broken.

Zhao Hai was surprised. He didn’t know who would want to deal with him in the Battle Corpse Sect. When he turned his head, he saw someone standing before him. This person was Wei Tiande.

Zhao Hai looked at Wei Tiande in surprise. He didn’t understand why Wei Tiande would come to him. Was his identity exposed? Zhao Hai couldn’t help but be astonished by this. However, he remained calm. He looked at Wei Tiande with a wary expression.

Wei Tiande looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Tell me which sect you’re from. As long as you tell me, I’ll spare you from becoming a battle corpse.”

Zhao Hai stared, he looked at Wei Tiande in confusion. Then he replied, “Elder Wei, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Looking at Zhao Hai, Wei Tiande couldn’t detect any falsehoods. However, he still chose to doubt Zhao Hai. He waved his hand and pulled Zhao Hai in, grabbing him by the neck. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but gasp for breath. His head turned red from the pain.

Wei Tiande glared at Zhao Hai and said, “Kid, I urge you to tell the truth. Otherwise, I’ll refine you into a battle corpse. I’ll make sure that you will never be reincarnated.”

Zhao Hai continued to look at Wei Tiande with a confused expression. His face turned redder as time passed. It looked like he was going to be strangled to death.

Looking at Zhao Hai’s appearance, Wei Tiande coldly snorted and said, “How did you find the green gold ore? Don’t tell me it’s because of luck. I won’t believe you.”

After Zhao Hai heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and summoned a large number of undead. The undead looked much like people, but they didn’t have a breath.

Wei Tiande was an expert in refining corpses, he could naturally recognize the undead with a glance. In his eyes, the undead were the simplest form of battle corpses. Without any refining, the undead could only hold strength up to the Clone Stage.

Wei Tiande loosened his grip as he looked at the Undead. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Kid, what are you showing me these undead for?”

If Zhao Hai really wanted to resist, Wei Tiande wouldn’t be able to do anything to him. However, Zhao Hai couldn’t feel any murderous intent from Wei Tiande. This means that Wei Tiande was merely intimidating him. He wasn’t planning to kill Zhao Hai.

Because of this, Zhao Hai allowed Wei Tiande to capture him. He wanted to see why Wei Tiande came. Now he understood that Wei Tiande was just testing him.

Zhao Hai didn’t release the bugs from the Space. Although the bugs were very easy to use, they were merely demon beasts in Wei Tiande’s eyes. Wei Tiande was a ghost cultivator, controlling beasts wasn’t his specialty.

Zhao Hai released the bugs for the Yin Yang Elders because he wanted to prevent the elders from having a bad image of him. In the True Spirit Realm, people always had a bad view of ghost cultivation, which included corpse refinement. If Zhao Hai released his undead, he would definitely cause disgust directed towards him. His undead might even cause him to be suspected. Therefore, what Zhao Hai showed in the True Spirit Realm was the bugs, informing everyone that he was a talented beast tamer.

On the other hand, the Battle Corpse Sect focused on corpse refinement. If the news that Zhao Hai heard was true, then Wei Tiande should have 36 battle corpses. This was a unique ability in the Battle Corpse Sect. It was also the reason why Wei Tiande hasn’t taken a disciple under his wing. If Zhao Hai displayed talent in corpse refinement, he might attract Wei Tiande’s favor. When the time comes, Wei Tiande might make him his disciple.

If Wei Tiande takes Zhao Hai as his disciple, this would give Zhao Hai more legitimacy in the underground world. After all, the underground world was a unique place. Ordinary people couldn’t do whatever they liked. With a domineering elder behind him, Zhao Hai would save himself from a lot of trouble.

Zhao Hai fell to the ground and took a few deep breaths. He coughed twice before he stood up and said, “Replying to Elder. The reason why I was able to find the green gold ore quickly isn’t because of luck. It’s because of these undead. I have an ability to turn people who recently died into undead for my own use. Right now, I have a lot of undead under my control. I commanded all of them to scour the mountain for the green gold ore.”

Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Wei Tiande couldn’t help but stare. Then as Zhao Hai expected, Wei Tiande’s eyes lit up as he said, “You mean you can create undead from corpses? Can you create as many as you want?”

Zhao Hai nodded and said, “Although I don’t know the limit, I already have a thousand undead. And I don’t feel the limit yet.”

Wei Tiande’s gaze brightened even more. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, “Why are all your undead humans? Can you create undead from other races in the underground world?”

Hearing Wei Tiande, Zhao Hai sighed secretly. Wei Tiande was truly a shrewd individual. Any flaw will be revealed in his eyes. However, Zhao Hai already found an excuse. He smiled bitterly and said, “Replying to Elder. I can’t seem to convert races other than humans. I don’t know the reason.”

Wei Tiande nodded and said, “Alright. Come with me.” After he said that, he no longer paid attention to Zhao Hai as he turned around and left. Zhao Hai has no choice but to follow behind Wei Tiande. In any case, he’s no longer in danger. There was no need to consider escaping.

The two moved slowly through the passages of the mountain. Suddenly a cultivator walked over. As soon as the cultivator saw Wei Tiande, he immediately cupped his fist and said, “I have seen Elder Wei.”

Wei Tiande waved his hand and said, “Call a new outer sect disciple to my chamber.” The cultivator nodded. Wei Tiande proceeded to walk forward as if he hadn’t said anything. He basically removed the cultivator from his eyes.

The cultivator that was ignored wasn’t dissatisfied. In the underground world, strength was revered. If you weren’t strong, you would be ignored. Conversely, the strong would always hold the top position, obtaining everything they want. This was a world where nobody sympathized with the weak!
