Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 1301 – Zheng Liʼs Difficulty

Zhao Hai returned to the Space right after because he didnʼt want to attract too much attention. Although murder was very common in the soft gold mine, if he killed too many people in a short time, then people with power will take note of his presence. When that time comes, hunting peacefully would be impossible.

Getting attention was great, but too much wasnʼt good. If Zhao Hai excessively slaughters people in the soft gold mine, then all races there will be alerted. When the time comes, it wouldnʼt just become Zhao Haiʼs matter, but also the entire Machine Field.

One must know that the other realms had been drooling for a long time for the Machine Fieldʼs territory. But since they had problems with each other, they couldnʼt form an alliance. Additionally, the people of the Machine Field in the Six Realms Battlefield werenʼt easy to deal with. This allowed the Machine Field to defend their own territory in the battlefield. But even with this, their partially controlled territory was still smaller compared to the other realms.

Zhao Hai wanted to kill people in order to strengthen the Space. However, he didnʼt want to cause trouble for the Machine Field. If he implicated the Machine Field, then he would not only suffer but the civilians in the realm as well.

Upon returning to the Space, Zhao Hai looked at what Yuan and the others were doing. Yuan and the others were biding their time. The Sprites also knew that they would retaliate since it was Yuanʼs style. Yuan was waiting for the weapons refined by Zhao Hai. As long as Zhao Hai finished refining the weapons, then their combat strength would be increased. Most importantly, with Zhao Hai being a powerful expert, they were confident in causing trouble with the Sprites.

Seeing that Yuan and the others didnʼt make a move, Zhao Hai relaxed. Then he looked at Laura and said, ”How is it? Did you manage to map the soft gold mine?”

Laura nodded and said, ”The entire soft gold mine has been mapped. The place is really chaotic. There are people fighting at any time.”

Zhao Hai couldnʼt help but chuckle at the chaos in the soft gold mine. He already experienced it for himself. And now that the entire mine has been mapped, he can appear anywhere inside it.

The soft gold ore in the mine was close to being depleted. If this decreases even more, then the other realms might restrain their people from going to the mine. This was because they might not be able to withstand the casualties.

However, Zhao Hai wanted to use this opportunity to plant soft gold ores from the Space into the mine. This way, people would maintain hope that the mine still has more supply.

Speaking of which, only people from the Machine Field rarely went to the soft gold mine. This was mainly because their strength wasnʼt good – only a few could manage to survive. Therefore, although the other realms were killing each other in the mines, people from the Machine Field rarely joined.

And as long as there was chaos in the soft gold mine, the Machine Field would be able to go to other parts of the battlefield to harvest resources. This chaos also reduced the pressure on Lock Mountain Range.

Before Yuan entered the Six Realms Battlefield, the Lock Mountain range was close to being turned into another soft gold mine. The other realms would go there to hunt people, dig ores, or harvest herbs. There were endless attacks conducted on the Machine Field. In their minds, as long as these attacks continue, people of the Machine Field might get tired of fighting and abandon the mountain range. This would give the other realms a larger area of activities, and in turn more resources.

From the past several days, Zhao Hai understood that the Lock Mountain Range also had patches of mineable areas. These were minerals unique only to the Machine Field. Some of these minerals would be used by the realm and the rest would be used to trade with the other realms. It can be said that the Six Realms Battlefield was the main source of foreign exchange resources of the Machine Field. If they lost Lock Mountain Range, then it would be a huge blow to the Machine Field.

After Yuan and the others went all out to fight the other realms, the other realms began to feel the pain of their losses and lessen their pressure on the Machine Field. At the same time, the soft gold mine became more chaotic, attracting more people from the other realms which in turn lessened the pressure on Lock Mountain Range much more. This was the reason why the mountain range was peaceful when Zhao Hai and the others arrived. In the past, it was common for experts like Hao Sha to attack the forts.

Zhao Hai doesnʼt want the chaos in the soft gold mine to stop. The more chaotic it was, the calmer the Lock Mountain Range would be. In any case, the Space was producing soft gold ore now. Injecting some soft gold ore into the soft gold mine would certainly cause people to turn frantic.

Seeing Zhao Hai smiling, Lizzy smiled as well. Then she said, ”Big Brother Hai, while we were receiving information about the soft gold mine, we also saw an acquaintance there.”

Zhao Hai immediately asked, ”Acquaintance? Who?”

Lizzy waved towards the screen, then it showed a scene with a group of Cultivators. The strength of this group wasnʼt that great. Most of these Cultivators looked like beginners. But their leader was a Nascent Soul Expert. And in this group was indeed an acquaintance of Zhao Hai, it was Suo Liancheng.

Upon seeing Suo Liancheng, Zhao Hai gawked. He didnʼt expect to see Suo Liancheng here. To be honest, Zhao Hai had a good impression towards Suo Liancheng. He knew when to retreat and when to attack. He also had a straightforward personality. Itʼs just a pity that they belong to competing realms.

Zhao Hai said, ”I didnʼt expect him to also be in the Six Realms Battlefield. Iʼll meet him when I have the time.”

Lizzy and the others smiled. They knew that Zhao Hai quite liked Suo Liancheng. This was why Lizzy told Zhao Hai this news.

After looking through the soft gold mine, Zhao Hai moved to take care of his newly procured Demon Undead. They were allocated planets as well as students to teach. And just like Hao Shai and Jia Ding Shan, each Demon Undead were given 1000 students.

Jia Ding Shan was very relaxed recently. After all, the iron armor beasts were very obedient. This made teaching them very easy.

Once he was done with these things, Zhao Hai decided to take a rest. But then, Caiʼerʼs expression suddenly changed. Then she turned to Zhao Hai and said, ”Young Master, a bug tide just occured in Fabio Planet. Mister Zheng Li is in danger.”

Upon hearing Caiʼer, Zhao Hai stared. Then he immediately commanded Caiʼer to show the situation on Fabio Planet. Shown on the screen was the situation of Base Number 5. At this moment, the base was besieged by large quantities of Bugs. There werenʼt only eight-legged bugs present, there were also praying mantis as well as bugs that Zhao Hai had not seen before. These bugs were surrounding the entire base. But what made it worse was that the walls of Base Number 5 had been broken through, causing the bugs to stream into the Base.

Zheng Li was Base Number 5ʼs commander. At this time, he was commanding Cultivators to drive off the bugs. However, they were being slowly grinded down. If this continues, then they would reach a very critical situation.

Zhao Hai was dumbfounded when he saw this. He also experienced a bug tide. In the last bug tide, there were a lot of reinforcements to support the base. The transmission formation lit up continuously as experts streamed in. But why wasnʼt this the case this time?

Before long, Zhao Hai noticed that the transmission formations werenʼt flashing. This meant that the base wasnʼt being reinforced. This caused Zhao Hai to be puzzled. He immediately shifted the display to the transmission formation. But upon looking at the formation, Zhao Hai was shocked. Base Number 5ʼs transmission formation was actually seized by the Bugs.

There was no mistaking it, the transmission formation has been seized. Zhao Hai also saw that there was a large hole just outside the formation. This hole was quite enormous with a diameter exceeding 20 meters. Moreover, it was very deep. It was clear that it was being dug by the bugs. At the same time, there were two Silverback Gold-winged bugs above the formations, fighting off two Nascent Soul Experts. In addition to the two, there were also a large number of bugs standing on the transmission formations.

Zhao Hai hadnʼt seen these bugs before. These bugs werenʼt big. They had black-brown color and had eight feet. The six hindlegs were used for mobility while the two forelegs were able to be freely moved.

It was clear that the fighting strength of these bugs wasnʼt strong. However, their speed of excavation was very quick. These insects were currently destroying the transmission formations.

Upon seeing these bugs, Zhao Hai began to understand where the large hole came from. It was also because of these bugs that Base Number 5 wasnʼt getting any reinforcements.

Zhao Hai was shocked by the implications of this scene. This meant that the bugs had discovered the weakness of the transmission formations. As long as a living creature stood on top of the transmission formation, then it couldnʼt be used. However, this weakness had never been discovered by the bugs before. This allowed multiple bug tides to be repelled.

But this time, not only was this attack deliberate, it was also well-organized. First, they had bugs that could dig very deep underneath the base, bypassing the alarms of the base. And then the bugs used this tunnel to perform an attack on the base while also blocking the transmission formations. This isolated Base Number 5 from the rest of the bases.

In order to complete this plan, the Bugs sent two Silverback Gold-winged bugs. The role of these Silverback Gold-winged bugs was to defend the insects on the transmission formations. As long as they held on, the Cultivators wouldnʼt be able to get reinforcements.

One has to recognize that the move of the bugs this time was very extraordinary. They hit the weakness of Base Number 5. With no reinforcements, Base Number 5 would be courting death if they kept fighting the bugs.

Chapter 1302 – Two Choices

Intelligent….too intelligent!

When Zhao Hai saw the actions made by the bugs, he couldnʼt help but sigh. The bugs were indeed smart. Although he had already confirmed the intelligence of the bugs back when he was in Base Number 5, it seems like the bugs were becoming smarter and smarter. This wasnʼt good.

Zhao Hai didnʼt immediately move to save Zheng Li. Base Number 5 wouldnʼt be falling that soon. Even if the base has been broken through, there were still a lot of Cultivators that could defend it. At this moment, Zheng Li was still organizing people to fight bugs on the street.

Zhao Hai frowned as he considered what to do. Should he just save Zheng Li or the entire Base Number 5?

Zhao Hai wasnʼt overestimating himself. This was because he was truly strong enough. He has more than enough Undead to kill the bugs, saving the base from being surrounded on all sides.

However, if he did use such an above board method, then it would surely bring him trouble. Therefore, Zhao Hai couldnʼt make up his mind at this time.

Laura and the others were also waiting for Zhao Hai to make a decision. They were looking at the monitor. The bugs and Cultivators were fighting each other. The Cultivators were in a battle formation as they defended against the bug assault. However, the bugs were endless. There were also flying bugs that managed to pick off a Cultivator once in a while.

Seeing Zhao Hai knitting his brows, Laura couldnʼt help but ask, ”Brother Hai? What are you thinking about?”

Zhao Hai looked at the screen and said, ”Do you think I should solve Base Number 5ʼs problem or just rescue Brother Zheng Li?”

When she heard this, Laura paused for a moment. Then she answered, ”Brother Hai, I think itʼs best for us if you just save Brother Zheng Li. We cannot do anything about Base Number 5. Even if itʼs a good thing, you should know about the trouble that it would bring us. So why are you still hesitating?”

Zhao Hai gave a nod. Then he said, ”Iʼm hesitating because of the Bug Race. Their ability to evolve is too formidable. And they seem to be getting smarter now. The Cultivators have been keeping them back all this time. But once the bugs evict the Cultivators from the planet, then Iʼm afraid they would start conquering other planets. If this happens, then the entire World of Cultivation would face a crisis.”

Laura smiled faintly and said, ”Brother Hai, it wouldnʼt be that serious. Youʼre underestimating the strength of the Cultivation Realm. If you count the entire realm, they have a large number of Nascent Soul Experts. We already knew about how strong they are. And what of those stronger than them? Moreover, the Great Sects had existed for many years, their foundation is very solid. The Bugs can reproduce quickly and their ability to evolve was indeed powerful. However, the Cultivation Realm isnʼt that weak. I believe that you shouldnʼt care about the Bugs for now. Rescue Brother Zheng Li first. Heʼs a Rogue Cultivator yet he was able to reach his current position. This meant that he has good talent. And as long as you can find a way to receive his family, then Brother Zheng Li might become your subordinate. As for Fabio Planet, you shouldnʼt be worried. If the Bugs act, then the Cultivation Realmʼs attention would be pointed towards them. This would make us breathe easier. We can seize this opportunity to grow our power.”

Zhao Hai listened to Lauraʼs words and thought that what she said was reasonable. The bugs could pull attention away from him. Not only could his development become smoother, this event would also impact the equilibrium of the Six Realms Battlefield. No matter what, this was a good thing.

Upon thinking up to this point, Zhao Hai gave a slight nod. Seeing Zhao Haiʼs appearance, Laura smiled and said, ”Also, if the Bugs truly becomes a problem, then we could use it as an opportunity to enter Fabio Planet. From what we saw, bug nests are beneficial to the Space. As long as we get more, then the Spaceʼs strength would increase.”

Zhao Hai nodded and said, ”Alright, then letʼs rescue Brother Zheng Li first. However, we cannot reveal the Space to him. Letʼs take him to the Six Realms Battlefield.” Laura nodded and said, ”But we canʼt do it right now. There are still a lot of people left in Base Number 5. If we rescue Brother Zheng Li right now, then people from Base Number 5 will notice us. We should wait first. I believe that the Cultivators wouldnʼt get annihilated in the base. Even if the transmission formations couldnʼt be used, they can still fly away. Once they escape from Base Number 5, they would certainly be chased down by the bugs. When the time comes, we can rescue Brother Zheng Li.”

Zhao Hai laughed and said, ”Alright, then letʼs do that.”

The situation in Base Number 5 was still shown on the screen. The Silverback Gold-winged Bugs were still defending the transmission formation while the other bugs were destroying the transmission formations. Although the two Nascent Soul Experts of Base Number 5 were doing all they could, they were unable to move the Silverback Gold-winged bugs.

The Silverback Gold-winged bugs were already stronger than them. If the two bugs werenʼt defending the transmission formation and fought seriously, then the two Nascent Soul Cultivators would be destroyed.

The two Nascent Soul Cultivators were also aware of this. However, they need to clear the transmission formation. If they cannot solve this problem, then Base Number 5 will be conquered.

One should know that building a base in Fabio Planet wasnʼt an easy task. Each base cost a lot of resources as well as lives in order to be built. Losing a base meant losing one foothold on the planet. Then sooner or later, the Cultivation Realm would be expelled from the planet.

Therefore, people from the Cultivation Realm wouldnʼt just let a base be destroyed. As long as they have hope, then they will defend the base at all costs.

The entire Base Number 5 has devolved into a hopeless mess. Zheng Li already knew that Base Number 5 was finished. There were already a lot of bugs inside the base, and now, their transmission formations werenʼt working, starving them of reinforcements. In this case, wanting to hold on to Base Number 5 was simply wishful thinking.

But the present issue was that even if they donʼt defend Base Number 5, wanting to escape from the bugs would still be very difficult. The Cultivation Realmʼs bases in Fabio Planet which were linked by transmission formations were very far from each other. It was also very dangerous to go from base to base without going through a transmission formation. This was because there were a lot of bugs present between two bases.

When he thought of this, Zheng Li couldnʼt help but bitterly smile. The Cultivation Realm had been relying on transmission formations. Now that the base had lost its transmission formations, they can’t retreat.

Although this was the case, Zheng Li didnʼt give up in resisting. This was because he knew that their opponents werenʼt like the other realms in the World of Cultivation. If it was the other races, then once they surrender, then they would stop attacking. However, what they were facing were the bug races. If they surrendered, then they can only be regarded as food.

What Zheng Li was worried about wasnʼt his life, but instead his family. His family members were just commoners. Because of his cultivation, Zheng Liʼs family was able to enjoy a higher quality of life. If he died here, then his family would return to their original status. This wasnʼt something that he wanted to see.

Most Rogue Cultivators in the Cultivation Realm practice for their family. They want their families to stop being farm animals and slaves. And in order for their family to not return to this state, they had to practice hard.

Including him, Zheng Liʼs family consists of six people. His grandfather had passed away but his grandmother was still alive. Then thereʼs his parents, and then his younger brother and younger sister.

Zheng Liʼs father was also practicing. However, since his talent was less than Zheng Li, he was stuck in Qi Refining, not even Foundation Establishment. His father did tasks every day in order to support Zheng Liʼs brother and sisterʼs training and also to feed the family.

Zheng Liʼs Mother and Grandmother was even worse, only at Body Tempering. So they could only farm. As for Zheng Liʼs younger brother, his talent was good. At 20 years old, he was able to reach Qi Refining. As for his sister, it was even better. She managed to reach Qi Refining at 15 years old. Naturally, reaching this state before 20 years old had a lot to do with Zheng Li. Now that he was a Core Formation Cultivator, he was able to give his brother and sister some pills once in a while. Therefore, they were able to quickly progress. With his brotherʼs speed, it wouldnʼt be long before he would be admitted to the Outer Sect.

However, if Zheng Li died here, then all of these plans would vanish. There was an age limit for Sects to recruit disciples. Even if you reach the required level, if your age passed the limit then you wouldnʼt be able to enter. Without the pills that Zheng Li provides, his brother and sister wouldnʼt be able to enter a sect in their entire lives.

This doesnʼt mean that Zheng Li was looking down on his brother and sister. To be honest, although the talent of his brother and sister was good, it wasnʼt that much. Without the support of pills, it would be very difficult for them to enter a sect. One must know that the Cultivation Realm wasnʼt short of manpower. Great Sects were very meticulous in the selection of their disciples. Therefore, if one wants to be selected, then they need to show talent. This would guarantee the sectʼs strength.

But even if Zheng Li wanted to live, he still needed the permission of the bugs. When he thought of this, Zheng Li couldnʼt help but feel a bitter taste in his mouth. He was a Core Formation Expert. He only needed to wait for two years before he could get out of the Planet and become an Elder of a Sect. Although he might not have any influence, at the very least he would get the treatment of an Elder. This will make his brother and sister cultivate better. However, he didnʼt expect the bugs to become more and more powerful. And this time, he couldnʼt even choose to escape.

Although he was feeling despair, Zheng Li didnʼt give up in resisting. This was because he knew that as long as he held on, then a chance to survive might appear. If he gave up, then this chance would disappear.

The fight went on as more and more bugs arrived. Moreover, the strength of the bugs was increasing. A mosquito-type bug had entered the fray. This was a bug that Zhao Hai hadnʼt seen before. This bug was quite strong with strength equivalent to a Core Formation Expert.

Once these bugs joined in, the situation in Base Number 5 got out of control. Cultivators were beginning to desert. If not for the two Nascent Soul Cultivators, then the entire battle formation would have collapsed.

One shouldnʼt overestimate an average Cultivatorʼs willpower. Since Cultivators value their lives even more than an average person, their willpower easily crumbles when they face an unwinnable situation. When that situation comes, deserting was quite common.

The two Nascent Soul Experts were also having a very bad time. Although they were Nascent Soul Experts, there were a lot of people like them in the Cultivation Realm. Even if they flee, they would still be punished. The Sects had their own rules, and the loss of Base Number 5 was a very huge sin.

However, as more and more bugs stream into the base, the Nascent Soul Experts began to consider their own safety. Between the choice of death or punishment, naturally they would rather be punished than die here. Death was the end, and this was something that Cultivators would never accept.

When the two Nascent Soul Experts looked like they were going to retreat, two Goldspine Bugs suddenly appeared.

Goldspine Bugs and Silverback Gold-winged Bugs looked similar. The only difference between the two of them was that the Goldspine Bug had a sharp horn on its head. This horn could move and when it does it would be like a spear. This bug had the same reputation as the Silverback Gold-winged bugs.

Not only do the Goldspine Bugs have the same reputation as the Silverback Gold-winged Bugs, they were also as strong. They were bugs with Nascent Soul-level strength. When these two bugs appeared, the two Nascent Soul Cultivators immediately ran away. This was because they knew that they had no capability to block four Nascent Soul-level enemies.

And as soon as the two experts ran away, the chaos in Base Number 5 entered its climax. Other Cultivators in the base decided to run as well. Before long, all resistance that Base Number 5 had, vanished. Seeing this situation, Zheng Li couldnʼt help but sigh. Although Base Number 5 was his responsibility, he also wanted to save his life.
