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

Chapter 296: Chapter 229: The Tomb Buried the Gods (II) (Second Update)_1

Seven figures of different heights stood side by side, their dazzling divine halos spreading around them as if eternally unending…

Across the boundless flatland, a terrifying power was wreaking havoc, sweeping through the wild, causing the sky to surge in an instant.

Countless creatures were trembling in fear, hiding within caves, too scared to move.

Igniting The Divine Fire and ascending to the Divine Position were the first steps out of the ordinary.

Once one set foot in this realm, they would be like those towering immortals in ancient Greek myths, possessing unimaginable powers that could split mountains and rivers, traverse the deep cosmos, and as soon as they speak, anomalies would occur, inducing innate fear in lesser beings.

Across the Lower Realm Eight Domains, geniuses were as plentiful as crucian carp crossing a river under the long passage of time. However, eight or nine out of ten of them were stuck on the path to this checkpoint.

“Since the Lord of the Underworld has given his orders, we naturally must obey. Do you all know where the young man named Shi Hao is?”

The last old man who emerged from the void’s Giant Cauldron spoke.

His body was withered and shriveled like an extremely aged tree trunk, wrinkled and bizarre, seeming even more strange than the pale golden skeleton.

However, the aura that radiated from him was terrifying. Even other creatures that had descended to the Lower Realm with him were wary, not daring to get too close, fearing any mishaps.

“Wilderness Area, Stone Kingdom!”

The giant Pangolin spoke. It came from one of the Upper Realm’s super Taoist Orthodoxy—Beast Sea, and it was a pure-blooded creature.

“If so, let’s get moving. We will start our journey this time by making a move on this young man!” The old man’s voice was cold.

…

…

“Are these the Seven Gods?!”

Somewhere far beyond countless miles.

Jiang Hui’s Five Senses were fully engaged, covering Heaven and Earth and the vast universe’s Eight Domains.

Every move and appearance of these seven figures naturally fell under his attention.

If he remembered correctly, these Seven Gods should come from Beast Sea, Western Church, Yin-Yang Academy, Demon Sunflower Garden, Underworld, Heaven, and Immortal Palace respectively.

This was somewhat different from the first Great Calamity and the Divine Enthronement War.

Some forces were added, and some were missing.

For instance, Immortal Mountain did not participate in this blood sacrifice, nor did it forcefully send down any deities. Ever since the fight of Divine Enthronement, where the Immortal Supreme was killed three times by the Willow God, everyone at Immortal Mountain has become much behaved, seemingly completely silent.

“Interesting, the Yin-Yang Academy’s Sect Hierarch—the Yin-Yang Taoist—has already fallen. The school didn’t have many people in the first place, and yet they still sent someone down. Aren’t they afraid of being eaten alive without even leaving their bones…”

Jiang Hui looked at the only young man dressed in a Taoist robe.

The man had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes and was rather handsome, but his eyes were filled with ruthlessness.

From his attire, Jiang Hui roughly guessed his identity.

He should be from the Yin-Yang Academy, the power of that Yin-Yang Taoist, because of the distinctive attire. The two dress very similarly, not like the typical immortal scholar, but with a worldly traveler’s feel.

The overall strength of the Yin-Yang Academy was not great, which involved its dispute with the Western Church. Due to various reasons, the former was almost completely defeated by the latter, resulting in a smaller scale and fewer disciples in the sect than those of the top-tier Great Sects.

Of course, although there aren’t many people, the strength of their Sect Hierarch, Yin-Yang Taoist, should not be underestimated. He was one of the oldest beings, achieving creation with profound mysteries of Yin and Yang.

He even slaughtered a country under Willow God’s protection, able to withstand several hard hits from the Willow God at the Nirvana stage without being disadvantaged at all.

If the Willow God didn’t eventually use his Taoist technique, it is uncertain whether he could kill the other in the current situation and realm.

But no matter how it happened, the conclusion was that the Yin-Yang Taoist had died and his primordial spirit was even crushed by the Willow God.

The remains of his flesh and blood were still in his hand, waiting to be used for making medicine later on.

The leader was already gone, yet they remained stubborn. No wonder they failed in the contest with the Western Church. They were simply single-minded.

Shaking his head and retrieving his focus, Jiang Hui’s eyes were bright as he once again scanned these figures one by one.

After careful identification…

He had nearly identified the specifics identities of these people.

The first ones to come out of the void cauldron should be the Pangolin, the Underworld dweller, and Yang Li.

These three had the weakest power among the Seven Gods, albeit the force behind the Underworld dweller was not insignificant; it was vast and filled with mystery.

Next were the Western deity, the Heaven’s assassin, and the Silver Wings.

The strongest was the old man who came out last. He should have come from the mysterious ancient Immortal Palace and was a servant of some Grandmaster there, bestowed the name of Yellow Feathers.

Now that the Seven Gods had all descended to the Lower Realm, conflict with Shi Hao would likely ensue soon.

“Should I do something?” Jiang Hui’s heart stirred slightly.

However, he wasn’t exactly the benevolent type. His plan was to capture the Seven Gods to consolidate Liu Village’s foundation and also strengthen the village’s high-level combat power.

Especially considering his current power would rank him among the top even in the Upper Realm. Capturing these creatures and bringing them back would be as easy as flipping his hand.

What was more crucial was…

Currently, the passageways between heaven and earth in the Upper and Lower Realms were completely sealed off. Unless someone took an ancient and extremely dangerous path, it was impossible to travel through.

Even those alternate routes had strict requirements for one’s cultivation and realm. Creatures above the Godfire Realm couldn’t step foot into these paths, lest they be obliterated immediately by the supreme will.

Therefore, Jiang Hui was not worried about his actions being noticed by the giants of the Upper Realm.

However, after much consideration, Jiang Hui ultimately decided not to intervene personally and just watch how things unfolded patiently.

There were too many karmic ties involved in this, all of which related to Emperor Huang Tian.

The impending battle of the Seven Gods was a sort of trial for Little Dot. Though it would turn the sky blood-red, it was also a chance for him.

Even if the enemy did die, committing the power of Ten Heavens and the Second Piece of Supreme Bone to take down the old servant of the Immortal Palace. It was because of this that Shi Hao could gradually imprint the true significance of the Supreme Bone’s runes into his body during the recovery process, laying the foundation for the birth of the Second Piece of Supreme Bone.

You must understand, the Supreme Bone, a divine object born by nature, would not appear within the Human Race.

It is not unchangeable. If one possesses strong willpower and an unyielding spirit, it can be reborn even after its disappearance, it can also give birth to a more powerful “upgraded” Supreme Bone.

Taking all these factors into account, Jiang Hui decided to keep waiting and watching while secretly enhancing the strength of Liu Village.

The time was far from ripe for him to make his move.

The impending great war and the birth of the Second Piece of Supreme Bone were closely related. If he intervened, and the miraculous item did not reappear as before, the resultant karma would be huge.

“Ribbit ribbit ribbit…”

Just as Jiang Hui was immersed in his thoughts.

A thunderous frog’s croak suddenly echoed.

Without even looking, he could tell who had come.

Sure enough.

A moment later, a palm-sized figure hopped and wobbled towards him.

It was the Sun-swallowing Golden Toad, a rare and valuable item. It was a formidable creature rivalling the Ten Evils; a race of Fairy King species, and upon maturity, it could step into the unsurpassed realm.

Perhaps because the toad was female, it followed Jiang Hui more tenaciously than other pets. It would follow him wherever he went, or snuggle up to his body, snoring contentedly during naptime.

“Ribbit ribbit ribbit…”

The Sun-swallowing Golden Toad shone with magnificent golden light. However, to Jiang Hui’s astonishment, it held a slightly battered mini wooden box in its mouth, roughly the size of a quail egg.

Around half as large as a person, constantly making ringing sounds with each movement…

Name: Low Quality Wooden Box

Rare Degree: Low

Item Description: Some common object brought back by the Sun-swallowing Golden Toad, having certain good things.

Pro Tips: This is a hidden ability of the Sun-swallowing Golden Toad, it doesn’t always show up.
