Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity-Chapter 401 - 308: Is This the Heritage Site?_1

Chapter 401: Chapter 308: Is This the Heritage Site?_1

Aside the youth, the servant appeared old and haggard, with eyes dull and sunken. He seemed weary and decrepit to the extreme, appearing even more worn out than the old woman.

However, this same servant scanned by the Surveillance Technique astonishingly projected the strength of a formidable Sect Hierarch.

If one does not become a sect hierarch, they will forever be an ant.

Even in the Upper Realm, Sect Leaders were rare and precious. Each one was extremely terrifying, ruling over the Endless Territory, with countless followers and disciples. With a single command, they could shatter stars and extinguish entire Ancient Countries.

Such beings, who stood at the top of the human pyramid, had lifespans that were terrifyingly long. They could live for millions of years with the aid of longevity substances.

Such a formidable entity, which can deter a region with its divine power and make Heaven and Earth bow to its will, was now serving a seemingly insignificant youth.

If there wasn’t something fishy going on, then there definitely was something fishy going on.

However, it was a pity that Jiang Hui was not interested in the causes and effects behind this. Even if the story was replete with twists and turns, it failed to pique his interest.

His only concern was the youth. The young girl could coolly step aside for all he cared.

Of course, if that old man wished to join Liu Village, he certainly wouldn’t object.

After all, the existence of a Sect Leader would significantly enhance the strength of a faction.

Such beings, at the level of the Sect Leader, were considered at the Giant Level. They were hard to come by, with their youngest years intimidating a region. Even today, they are among the most outstanding.

Most importantly, having such beings join Liu Village could, once they converted to followers, yield massive amounts of experience points. The short-term gain would far surpass the total from all villagers combined, providing Jiang Hui with an abundance of experience points.

With a few of them, Jiang Hui was confident in achieving substantial promotions in the shortest time possible.

He vaguely remembered that in the Upper Realm there were several places where the remains of powerful beings were buried. They had fought since the ancient times and shed blood, but they were not completely annihilated. Still lurking in the world, they remained hidden.

Even though their main consciousness had been worn away by the endless passage of time, their remaining bones still existed in the world and retained a fraction of their original might. Revival was possible with the assistance of some secret techniques.

Unfortunately, although Jiang Hui had the perfect understanding in his previous life, he had nearly forgotten the content regarding the Upper Realm, retaining just a vague impression of the critical events.

Otherwise, he could have seized the opportunity to “kick someone while they were down” and locate some giants who were in their “low period”, and quietly take measures to get them into the Liu Village camp.

…

…

“Young Master, please stay close to this Old One in a while. This Secret Realm is not as simple as it seems. There is a great chance that long-dead spirits within it might revive!”

In the churning mist, the youth’s side, the old servant looked solemn, and his pair of eyes, filled with vicissitudes, flashed an icy radiance imperceptible to outsiders.

“Thirteenth Master, I also feel somewhat strange. Just now, I don’t know if it was my imagination, but I always felt as though a pair of eyes was watching me in the darkness, but I couldn’t see anything!”

The youth spoke at the same time, agreeing with the old man’s point of view.

“Oh, is that so?” The old man looked surprised. He had watched the youth grow up. Although the youth’s talent was extremely poor, weak from birth, and insufficient in energy, attempts to include a lot of precious medicinal plants that restore vitality into his meals didn’t bring any improvement.

However, although the youth had insufficient innate energy and no opportunities to step into the Blood Realm in this life, the old man discovered over time that the youth was unusual, having a surprising ability to sense latent dangers.

“So it seems that the danger of escaping from the Secret Realm may exceed our estimations. If anything seems even slightly amiss, this Old One will immediately take you and break through!” The old servant spoke, spreading an invisible, terrifying pressure.

If it came to that, he wouldn’t mind revealing his true strength. Truth be told, if the youth hadn’t harboured certain feelings for the Li Clan, he would have done so earlier.

…

“Damn it, what kind of secret realm legacy is this? I can’t see or touch anything, it feels like there’s nothing here but fog as if we’re being played!”

In a corner of the mist, a rough man from the Blaze Gang exclaimed, his face turning unusually sullen.

He estimated that since they entered the secret realm, at least a couple of hours had passed, but all this while, let alone a teleportation array, they hadn’t even found a single rock, a tree or even a blade of grass.

Apart from the fog, everything else was pure white. There wasn’t a thing in sight. It was completely barren.

Those in the know thought this was a secret realm. Those who didn’t thought it was a land of miasma.

Even a land of miasma has something in it.

But this place, it felt like they had arrived in another world. A limitless realm shrouded by thick fog, no boundaries, no end, even the path they entered from had completely blurred.

Not only the rough man from the Blaze Gang, but everyone else was also feeling as if they were almost suffocating.

Because it was just too weird here. You could say it was a secret realm, but there was nothing inside. It was as if someone had looted everything. But if you said it wasn’t, it was said that people indeed found things, even traces of a True Dragon and a possible skeleton of a Dragon Mastiff.

“We should look around more carefully, there must be areas in this fog that we haven’t discovered yet!” An old woman interrupted, stirring the mist with her voice.

But just as her voice fell.

The huge blood-colored coffin suspended in the sky began to creak.

Then came a gurgling sound, similar to the eruption of magma, as if something was about to burst out from within.

This scene was extremely eerie, everyone’s hearts involuntarily tightened, their scalps tingling.

Before anyone could react, a pale green sprout emerged from the coffin, swaying in the wind, radiating a faint green glow.

Only in the next moment, the pale green sprout ballooned and bloomed into a fruit in a flash.

Then, surrounded by sharp teeth, the fruit split open to reveal a crimson vertical eye.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Everyone’s expressions were stunned, their eyes drawn to the sight before them, looking dazed.

Jiang Hui originally wanted to create a more premium product, but unfortunately, the result was this kind of coffin.

Therefore, he could only fine-tune the details in subsequent stages, fortunately, the overall effect was satisfying. The single eye growing in the coffin was bound to create a striking impression.

Of course, as for how others perceived it, that was none of his business.

“Why does that vertical eye make me feel anxious!!”

At the back of the crowd, the old servant felt a shocking, unparalleled fear.

He was a being from the Void Path Realm and held a Sect Leader Level position in one of the Great Sects. He commanded countless disciples and had lived for countless years, plucking stars and moons from the sky. To feel fear in this Land of Mist after so long was simply unimaginable.

“Humm…”

The vertical eye hung high in the sky, like a blood moon.

It caused a kind of trembling that came from the soul. Despite his best effort to suppress it, he couldn’t avoid the feeling. His whole body felt like it was frozen in place by an invisible force, and being watched by that giant vertical eye, it felt like there was no place to hide.
