Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity-Chapter 348: 268: Extremely Bad and Bad Places (First Update)_1
Chapter 348 -268: Extremely Bad and Bad Places (First Update)_1
Above the sky, a giant shadowy hand swiftly sweeps downwards, ripping across the horizon, descending from the heavens.
Within it, stars twinkle brightly, sunlight and moonlight rise and fall; a myriad of ancient stars fluctuate within, colossal enough without borders, they shake the blue sky. Amid the howling wind, an irresistible force slams down onto the Ferocious Hedgehog.
“Boom!”
In an instant, the earth trembles, the sky shudders, limitless divine light bursts, Runes flickers, breaching the clouds.
As the giant hand descends, the ground instantly vibrates, setting off an observable shockwave that swiftly spreads in all directions.
In a flash, ancient trees shatter, voluminous soil and stone splash out. Beings caught near the impact instantly smeared in blood, were hurled away before they could react. Some of them, if not for using protective means in the nick of time, might have bled to death on the spot.
Regarding the Ferocious Hedgehog at the primary impact, its enormous body instantly collapses as though made of tofu, torn into pieces with its organs squeezed out.
The scene falls into eerie silence, so quiet that one could even hear the raspy breaths of numerous creatures.
The remaining creatures all had their eyes wide open, their faces filled with disbelief and terror, utterly shocked by the spectacle.
Although they were not overly familiar with the Hedgehog King, they knew something of its origins: it was from an Ancient Lineage and was rather powerful. It was on the brink of entering the Divine Realm, and if it had enough time, it could potentially step into the Realm of Rebirth from Blood in the future. It was regarded as one of the most potent beings among them.
Yet, even so, it was still squashed to death by that giant hand, its once mighty back spines pulverized to dust. It did not possess any strength to resist in the slightest, a sight that made their eyes bulge and shatter their guts out of fear.
“This is a Forbidden Area, it’s a Forbidden Area! The creature from the Clan of Heaven’s Eye did not lie to us! The Sky River changing its course, the Immortal’s Tomb shifting its location, is it not the appearance of the Supreme Secret Realm, but rather a terrifying ancient creature about to emerge!!!”
A creature finally came to its senses, recalling the words of the leading Heavenly Eye clansman right before their hasty departure, cried out heartrendingly.
They had initially thought that the latter was saying those things on purpose, intending to make everyone there leave, and monopolize the emerging Secret Realm. They never imagined that what he said was true, and he had no ulterior motives.
“Escape this place, escape quickly, take advantage of the fact that the great beast has not fully emerged yet and escape quickly from here!”
Some of the creatures were roaring, their momentum overwhelming and filled with powerful terror, having the ability to sweep away small forces. Yet at this moment, they wished they had more legs to run faster and get further away.
Although they were already in their twilight years, with more than half their bodies in the tomb, it was always better to cling to life. With the help of some substances that could prolong their lives, they could probably hold on for a few more decades. They didn’t want to blead and die on the spot.
“Escape from here, we must spread the news of the danger here. This place, covering a radius of tens of thousands of miles around it, is feared to be marked as a Forbidden Area!”
The remaining creatures were shouting, their expressions filled with horror, their bodies trembling violently, and they were fleeing in all directions desperately.
Vaguely, they seemed to see a giant silhouette appearing in the sky above.
The figure was too enormous, boundlessly towering, beyond their imagination. Its body was dreadful and filled with an indescribable feeling. It walked towards this place, one step at a time, and with each step, heaven and earth would tremble deafeningly, as if ten thousand volcanoes were erupting. The overwhelming pressure manifested, shaking their hearts and souls, instilling in them a soul-shaking terror that made them shriek more hysterically.
The Heavenly Eye clanswoman who had stayed behind was also amongst them. She was mixed in the crowd. Her delicate face was filled with regret, pale as a sheet, remorsefully mulling over why she didn’t heed her elder brother’s words before.
Back Hill of Liu Village.
Jiang Hui’s Five Senses enveloped the surroundings, naturally noting the details of every creature present.
His goal had been achieved, so he did not continue to intervene.
The reason for suppressing the Ferocious Hedgehog, besides the fact that it was too noisy, was primarily because he wanted to make a name for this area. Ideally, he wanted to make it more mysterious so that more creatures would know about this place.
Thus, he was going to intervene no matter what. It was just unfortunate that the Ferocious Hedgehog was chosen as the target and bore the brunt.
Only by making this place renowned can it attract more talents.
The notoriety of a dangerous place, without doubt, is the most direct and effective method of gaining renown.
If these creatures were convinced that this location is a precious secret realm, they would only think about concealing it and definitely would not disseminate it.
After all, the latter represents unimaginable opportunities. If one could seize it, it could even defy the heavens to change destiny. The fewer creatures who knew about it, the better. After all, the fewer the number of creatures, the less pressure there would be from competition.
But if it’s a dangerous place, they most certainly will not conceal it, as there are no conflicts of interest involved.
As a matter of fact, the behavior of those creatures has confirmed Jiang Hui’s conjecture that they indeed intend to publicize their encounters here.
Although the name of a dangerous place sounds intimidating, it actually also has an unusual appeal.
As far as ordinary creatures are concerned, the more dangerous a place, the more terrifying it is, hence they would not readily tread into such places. frёeωebɳovel.com
However, for the talented, these dangerous places are like training grounds where they can temper themselves, so they definitely would flock here.
Jiang Hui’s expectation was simple. Even if it couldn’t achieve that much, it didn’t matter as long as people would come. He had many plans and methods that could make Liu Village’s territory famously puffery.
Especially since this was just a costless trial in the first place. Even if the result was not significant, it didn’t matter. There would be no loss for Jiang Hui anyway.
Long Heroic Peaks.
Under the crisis of life and death, the fleeing speed of those creatures could be described as lightning fast, all of them burst out at their limits, a speed that they could never normally achieve. However, to Jiang Hui’s surprise, there were several figures that did not flee but stayed.
They were truly in their twilight years, shrouded in the aura of death, and could no long hang on for a few more days even with the help of any life-extending substances.
“A great beast will emerge, and this place will be a Forbidden Area. Perhaps countless lives will be lost. If so, let our blood and souls warn the future generations, forbid them from entering this place!”
The few elderly beings spoke loudly, looking like they were ready to sacrifice themselves.
As at their words, they did, indeed, detonate their bodies. Their blood lingered without dispersing, then slowly gathered into a large, forbidden character, seemingly warning all who would come here.
“How am I supposed to set up the next plan if you guys won’t let anyone in?”
Jiang Hui was rather amused by the actions of these old guys.
He did not really believe they were selfless good Samaritans. When the creatures previously doubted this place to be the Supreme Secret Realm, Jiang Hui could see clearly that these old guys were glowing with greed in their eyes, as if they wanted to kill all the surrounding creatures to monopolize this place alone.
