Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity - Chapter 370
Chapter 370: Chapter 287: Competing with the Arrogant Geniuses of Various Races (First Update)_2
Therefore, compared to the opportunities in this Supreme Secret Realm, he regarded the practice this place provided for Lin Zhuang and Tu Wa Zi as more important.
This place had gathered nearly all the top-notch talents from the Three Thousand Zones, even those prodigies kept hidden by Immortal Dao were included.
Contending with the top-notch talents of all time, defeating worldly enemies, and forging the Heavenly Road with blood and bones, creating a lasting legacy.
This was the main reason why Jiang Hui let them enter. Only by competing with top-notch talents of the same realm could they identify their weaknesses and strive to improve themselves!
Having made up his mind, Jiang Hui looked back at Lin Zhuang and the others.
At this moment, they had already left the starting place, heading deep into the Secret Realm.
It’s worth mentioning that they encountered Little Dot and the Great Demon God on their way, but because Little Dot had changed his appearance, Tu Wa Zi and the others didn’t recognize him.
The Secret Realm was vast and it was a separated space, filled with ancient woods and grand mountains everywhere; it was so extensive that an ordinary person could not cross it in a lifetime.
They moved quickly, and after crossing a mountain range, they arrived at a stonewood.
The Stonewood was dense, like a checkerboard on the vast land. There were misty runes in the air, emitting a different radiance.
The place was boundlessly vast, but also highly unique because it was entirely sealed off.
Clearly, this was a place of inheritance within the Secret Realm.
When Lin Zhuang and the others arrived, there were already many creatures there, including many top-notch talents from the Great Sects. The air even carried a slight smell of blood, indicating that countless battles had broken out, all for the opportunities here.
The moment they appeared, they immediately attracted the attention of many people, who all turned to look at them.
However, when they saw it was Lin Zhuang and the others, these people’s pupils shrank instantly, and many people unconsciously made way for them.
Many of them had witnessed the recent battle between Lin Zhuang and others and the Inheritor of the Immortal Palace, therefore, their impression was very deep. They knew these people were not to be trifled with. Most importantly, this group was particularly protective of their own, often causing trouble to one would bring the entire group down on you.
However, Lin Zhuang and the others didn’t linger here. After investigating for a while, they unanimously decided that their opportunity was still deeper inside, so they needed to move forward.
Soon, they came across a long, pitch-black abyss that looked like the mouth of a giant prehistoric creature. It was so deep that you could not see the bottom. Above the Abyss, you could faintly see several log bridges. Only by crossing these log bridges could you traverse the Abyss.
However, the number of log bridges was extremely limited, only about a dozen in total, some of which had already been claimed and were not open to other creatures.
This place was restricted to flying, so the log bridges were the only safe passageway.
“Father, which one should we take? I think that one seems to have fewer people passing by. We may be the first to pass…”
Lin Hai scratched his head, scanned the surroundings, and pointed at a narrow bridge in the distance.
“Hai Wa Zhi, you must remember, we are from Liu Village. Under the guidance of Lord Willow God, our village will definitely grow. As key members, we must have rules, with no rules, there would be no order.”
“In my opinion, we should take that one. It’s the closest to us!”
Lin Chen glanced lazily, pointing to the nearest log bridge.
They could see a barely perceptible flag fluttering on the bridge. Apparently, someone had already claimed it. It seemed to be from a certain clan, who had completely blocked the bridge, not allowing anyone else to pass.
“But Second Uncle, there are people on it already?”
“We’ll drive them off!”
“But didn’t you just say, Second Uncle? Without rules, there’s no order…”
Lin Hai wondered if he had heard wrong or misunderstood.
“Yes, without rules, there’s no order. But it’s our Liu Village that sets the rules. If others don’t comply with our rules, there’s no order. If there’s no order, we have to step in to enforce it.”
“This is what Lord Willow God has repeatedly taught. It’s the ultimate philosophy of life. I wouldn’t even tell it to most people. You’re young and need to learn more. It’ll benefit your life in ways beyond your imagination!” Lin Chen said earnestly, patting Lin Hai’s shoulder as he spoke.
“You shitbag, when did I ever teach you that?”
Behind the village.
Jiang Hui sat alone in the void, taking in everything, and couldn’t help but twitch his mouth when he heard Second Brother Lin’s words.
He did pass down some teachings, but when did he ever say those words?!
But whether he said it or not, he did think that Lin Chen’s words hit the mark.
Although he didn’t say it himself, rough words often carry the most truth.
Survival of the fittest, elimination of the weak, this is the only rule of the jungle, let alone the Barbaric Wilderness where might is above all else and power is paramount.
“Well, listen to your Second Uncle. He makes sense!” Lin Zhuang nodded in approval, seemingly agreeing with Lin Chen’s opinion.
“Big brother, don’t you think this is like some kind of telepathy between us?” Lin Chen laughed smugly, leaning in as he spoke.
Growing up, his big brother rarely ever supported him like this. To hear for the first time that he was sensible was definitely a cause for celebration for Second Brother Lin.
“Get lost!” Lin Zhuang retorted without even bothering to lift his head.
After a round of good-natured ribbing, the group quickly headed towards a log bridge nearby.
“Quite the guts there, this is the territory of the Immortal Palace, already requisitioned by them. One more step and you’ll be killed without mercy!”
The moment they stepped onto the log bridge, ripples appeared in the air, and the next moment a figure appeared, blocking Lin Zhuang and the others.
This was a young man with starry eyes, not more than eighteen or nineteen years old, yet he had already reached the Noble Realm. He exuded an aggressive aura. Even amongst powerful forces, his talent would be considered top-notch.
However, after noting the appearance of Lin Zhuang, Tu Wa Zi and the others, he was so frightened that he fell to the ground.
“Can’t you guys just disappear? How come I bump into you wherever I go?!!”
Chen Qing’s face went pale, and his body trembled like a sieve.
He had personally witnessed the horror of this group of people. Even his master, the young lord of the Immortal Palace, was not able to resist and was beaten battered and bloody. He finally managed to escape, but he didn’t expect to run into them again so soon.
“I recognize you, aren’t you the servant of some shitty Immortal Palace lord!” Tu Wa Zi exclaimed, as he identified the man.
“Watch your mouth when it comes to my master. So what if I’m a servant? You people don’t even have the rights to become one!”
“You all are just relying on numerical superiority. Remember, there are always higher mountains and heavens, no matter how brash and arrogant you are now, we are from the Immortal Palace — the oldest and largest power on this continent. If you retreat now, I can act as if this never happened!”
Chen Qing shouted, his fear was apparent, but he still managed to speak in a fierce tone.
“Feeling superior even as a servant, you deserve a beating more than your master!” Tu Wa Zi furrowed his brows, thoroughly disgusted by the man before him.
“You dare? You can’t possibly stay in the Secret Realm forever. If you don’t apologize, once you step out, you’ll face a storm-like retaliation from the Immortal Palace. No one can withstand it, not even the Immortal Dao, let alone you. At that time…”
Chen Qing shrunk back instinctively, his stubborn mask showing signs of faltering. However, before he could finish his sentence, his body suddenly flew backward.
It was Tu Wa Zi who made the move, striking him with one punch. He just couldn’t take it anymore — a servant behaving arrogantly, acting high and mighty, it was utterly disgusting.
With only a punch, this genius who was at the same level as Tu Wa Zi was knocked flying before he could react. His whole body was covered in blood, and his chest caved in.
“You all deserve to die!!”
The young lord of the Immortal Palace appeared, his handsome, flawless face full of murderous intent.
At this moment, the inheritor of the Immortal Palace had completely healed from his injuries, even his blood-stained clothes were replaced with a new one that shone crystal clear in the sunlight.
