Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity

Chapter 403: Chapter 309: New Member of Liu Village (First Update)_2

It wasn’t just the burly man who felt this way; the old man from the Zhu family also shared this sentiment.

However, given that the other party was an old woman, even if they found it hard to swallow their dissatisfaction, they didn’t get enraged immediately.

“Since we have confirmed that this is a Secret Realm, then our next actions will depend on our abilities!!”

The old woman started speaking, her gaze swept across her surroundings, and then she dashed with the girl by her side towards the tremendous gate in front of them.

The gate was blood-red like it was crying blood; through it, they could faintly see a gigantic coffin-like contour, as though it had been miniaturized many times.

Upon seeing this, the group hurried to follow suit.

As they stepped into the gate, the scene before their eyes abruptly changed.

However, it didn’t take long for everyone’s expressions to change drastically.

“This… isn’t this the entrance to the Secret Realm? Are we being driven out?!”

Everyone was shocked, their faces full of astonishment unable to comprehend what had happened for a long time.

They had clearly stepped into the gate, still full of resolve moments ago, seeking the boundless opportunities in the blood-red coffin. Why did they suddenly return to where they started?

The old woman was no exception, her face was gloomy, deep in thought.

At her side, the girl looked a bit strange. She glanced around and found that except for the young man and his old servant, everyone else had been driven out.

“Wait, some people didn’t come out. That young man and the old servant stayed inside!” A voice cried out in surprise, having noticed the anomaly as well.

But the most shocked was the old woman.

“It seems we did not pass the test of this Secret Realm!” After a long while, the old woman spoke out.

…

Although Jiang Hui had left the young man and his old servant behind, he hadn’t brought them directly back to Liu Village yet.

He planned to wait until their Faith Value reached a level that could receive his teachings before officially admitting them into Liu Village.

It should be easy to convince the young man, but his old servant would be more troublesome. With his power and vision, he wouldn’t easily serve others.

However, risks are often linked with benefits. Jiang Hui felt that it was worth trying, even if it fails. If it succeeds, Liu Village would gain the presence of a Sect Leader Level existence.

Jiang Hui had his own reasons for not including all the people present, including the girl, to Liu Village.

If every newcomer were accepted, it would indeed not meet the specifications of the Secret Realm. Inheritances from Secret Realms are selective; it’s impossible to match everyone.

Although the Land of Mist is quite simple, it couldn’t be equally basic inside and outside. The effect would be too fake, making Jiang Hui feel embarrassed.

Besides, there is another drawback for indiscriminately taking everyone in.

The effect of attracting talents would decline rapidly, and most likely, only ordinary creatures would come to try their luck. As for prodigies, there might be some, but very few. After all, they prefer challenges.

Not everyone can be converted into believers. Even if these people are temporarily taken in, some of them may not meet the requirements for receiving his teachings for a long time. Naturally, these people are not eligible to stay in Liu Village.

Just like the fleeing disciples from the Heaven Mending Pavilion.

Jiang Hui was deep in thought, if he really had to tell, the path he is on now and the path taken by the Willow God when she transformed into an Ancestral Spiritualist were very similar; they are both fostering believers, walking the path of faith.

However, in his view, there is a fundamental difference between the two.

The Willow God fostered believers just for the sake of fostering, nothing more, but Jiang Hui fostered believers for Faith Value, and collecting Faith Value is for leveling up, reaping awards.

…

In the Land of Mist.

The young man and the Sect Leader Level old servant only felt a flash of darkness before their eyes, followed by a dazzling flame. When they opened their eyes again, a majestic palace appeared in their line of sight.

Mysterious and ancient.

And at the center of the palace, an enormous figure loomed, shrouded in a thick mist, making it impossible to see its appearance clearly.

“Where are we?” The young man asked in surprise, completely startled. He remembered clearly that he had not yet stepped through the gate. How did he end up in such an unfamiliar place in the blink of an eye?

The old servant was even more taken aback, feeling as if a storm was raging in his heart.

He was an existence of the Void Path Realm, with a cultivation that reached from earth to heaven. Despite having sustained internal injuries, he can’t easily be subdued even by the Immortal Supreme within the same realm. Yet now he’s been captured like a mere toy and brought here. What’s more, he had failed to notice it.

This only proved that the strength of the master of this secret realm was beyond his expectations, likely a Supreme level existence.

“This is the true core of the Celestial Secret Realm, and all of you are the chosen ones for the inheritance.”

In the center of the palace, a gigantic figure spoke slowly, bringing the young and old out of their thoughts.

“W-We?” Both the young man and the old servant spoke almost simultaneously, disbelief in their eyes.

But unlike the old man, a trace of ecstasy was also hidden deep within the young man’s eyes.

The reason he had risked his life rushing here was to seize an opportunity. Despite his congenital weakness, he wasn’t willing to be lost in the crowd for the rest of his life.

And now it seemed his efforts had paid off. He had succeeded.

…

…

The Demon Continent is boundless. If observed from above, the outline resembles a complete skeleton.

Among the last Three Thousand Continents, the Demon Continent was renowned to be the most chaotic. In the farthest ancient era, this place was a battlefield where various powers slaughtered each other, and evil demons ran rampant, with blood flowing like rivers.

Being immersed in slaughter and warfare for years, the land was stained with blood, and the mountains were built of skeletons.

Not long after entering this wilderness, Shi Hao and his company came across some killings involving various kinds of monsters and scattered bandits; among them were those who had ignited the Divine Flame.

Many creatures had noticed Tu Wa and his group, Shi Hao included, but most of them did not rush to approach due to being unsure about their strength. However, there were a few bold enough to pursue them.

As for the result, they all ended up as juicy meat in the bellies of Shi Hao, Tu Wa, and the others.

The scent of roasted meat wafted beside the river, smoke curled up into the sky. Everyone held a golden-brown, greasy bone in their hands, enjoying their feast with relish.

This scene greatly shocked many creatures who harbored ill intentions.

All creatures were stunned before scattering away, fleeing for their lives with all their might.

My god, their initial intention was robbery, but these wicked kids were out for blood!!!

After a hearty meal, at Shi Hao’s suggestion, they planned to cross several continents to search for the deific stone and the Huang butterfly.

Whether it was the deific stone or Huang butterfly, both were helpful allies to Little Dot, able to perform miracles at critical moments.

Once they managed to regroup, they would then figure out when the grand event involving all the continents’ prodigies would begin and whether they were qualified to participate?

The Demon Continent was located west of Yun Zhou and was not too far away. Otherwise, a common teleportation array would not be able to reach it. Under the full operation of the Five Senses, Jiang Hui could observe every move they made.

He would not interfere with the decisions of Tu Wa and the others unless danger befell them. In that case, he would appear to help. As Tu Wa and Gu Chen were his devoted disciples, although they were apart, he could appear to safeguard them instantly.

Without mentioning anything else, this free-range experience was indeed far more profitable than before.

In less than two months, the collective experience gained by everyone had already far exceeded that of the past year.

Jiang Hui regretted a bit. Had he known this earlier, he would have adopted this approach long ago.

Along the way, Tu Wa and the others had reaped some unique gains.

Especially Shi Hao, who received some information that made his mind tremble, giving him a vague sense of a secret beyond comprehension.

He found a title of an era.

Immortal Ancient.

This term was not recorded in any historical records, symbolizing an immortal, magnificent era that extended over unimaginably long years.

He vaguely remembered that during his journey from Liu Village, he had heard some secret news. The Willow God seemed to have been born in that era and fell from grace due to a disaster.

And that grand event of prodigies was named after this era and had an inseparable connection with it.

A competition named after an era, the chances for growth it offered were beyond imagination.

They even heard that many individuals who had reached the stage of igniting the Divine Flame purposely suppressed their realms just to participate and seize those excellent opportunities.
