Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity
Chapter 1273 - Chapter 1273 801

Chapter 1273: 801 Chapter 1273: 801 Before the kings of Alien Territory.

A dark object, no larger than a human head but clearly angular and squarely shaped, quietly hovered above the altar in the center of the great hall.

The altar was not large, even considered delicate, in perfect harmony with the dark object suspended above it.

Evidently, the altar was specially constructed for this dark object.

After all, the size of the altar in some respects actually represented the strength of the sacrificial power.

Like the ancient battle in the Immortal Ancient times.

When Alien Territory dispatched troops to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the constructed altars would even exceed hundreds of thousands of meters in size.

Very massive, like a colossal peak, looming in the void, the chanting sound was like thunder,

As for such a small altar, it was rarely built individually, for it was almost useless.

However, this also demonstrated the eminent status and unimaginable importance of the temple on the altar; otherwise, the kings of Alien Territory absolutely would not go out of their way to specially construct such a delicate and exquisite altar.

Moreover, although the altar was small, it did not lack detail and was made from extremely solid and precious materials. It was entirely cast from precious Dark Immortal Gold, which, despite the passage of many years, still glistened imperishably.

At first glance, it looked like the most loyal guard of Divine Mountain, guarding that enigmatic dark object.

“Buzz…”

Suddenly, a faint light emitted from the dark object, and then a billowing black mist slowly dispersed to either side, revealing the true form of the object.

It was a temple.

At this moment.

The temple trembled slightly, as if it possessed the momentum to shatter mountains and crack the earth, attracting the attention of all the Immortal Kings present.

Even though the Immortal Kings were all in a worried and aggrieved state, when their gaze fell upon the temple, they would subconsciously adopt a reverent and awe-struck demeanor.

It was a genuine reverence from within, daring not the slightest disrespect.

The reason for this was simple.

For this temple was the Origin Artifact of another realm.

The reason Alien Territory could possess such inconceivable foundations and strength today was almost entirely reliant on this ancient artifact.

Without this Origin Ancient Device, Alien Territory would probably be nothing more than a desolate, cold corner at present.

Furthermore, for the kings present to have entered the King’s Domain, the role of this artifact was irreplaceable; they merely possessed the potential to become kings, but that did not guarantee they would indeed become kings. However, after being illuminated by the light from the Ancient Artifact, as long as they accumulated enough, they would surely step into the King’s Domain.

For countless eras, the Origin Ancient Device of Alien Territory has been enshrouded in an unfathomable mystery. Even within Alien Territory, only the Immortal Kings present knew the true appearance of this item.

The temple was exquisite, shimmering with deep and obscure dark glows, bearing some resemblance to the boundless black mist in the sea.

Though small, the temple exuded an indescribable solemnity and mystery.

The original vermillion paint, once vibrant and eye-catching, was now mottled and peeling, revealing a patchy stone base, bearing signs of weathering and the passage of time, but the more so, the more it highlighted the temple’s sense of ancient history.

The most unusual often appears the most ordinary.

Inside the temple was utmost simplicity, with an old wooden box placed right in the center, occupying the entire space all by itself.

The wooden box’s surface was also full of the traces of time, with a dark and dated appearance, silently sitting at the heart of the temple, its mottled surface exuding an ominous sheen, and its very presence emitted an indescribable eerie atmosphere.

On the box surface, one could faintly see some unclear symbols or patterns, worn by time to the point of being indistinct, yet revealing, as if inadvertently, a trace of power fluctuation not of this world, evoking a chilling sensation.

Inside, the sound of chanting sutras faintly arose, echoing within the great hall.

Deep and enduring, like a sigh in the dead of night, or the call of an ancient soul.

Listening to the sound of chanting, the expressions of the Immortal Kings, despite being stern and reverent, grew more uncomfortable.

Normally, when the Origin Ancient Device awoke from its slumber, it signified that Alien Territory might give rise to one or even several new Immortal Kings.

But this time, the awakening of the Origin Ancient Device did not discover seedlings with the potential to become kings, but brought them a message–

To attack Immortal Domain.

It wasn’t that this message surprised them.

After all, the Immortal Kings knew very well that a battle between Alien Territory and Immortal Domain was inevitable sooner or later, given the differing interests.

Moreover, the kings knew clearly that before the Ancient Immortal Era, Immortal Domain and the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were one and the same.

One’s glory was shared by all, as was one’s loss.

They attacked the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, yet who knew what Immortal Domain was plotting behind the scenes?

But… in the past, they would have unquestionably mobilized their armies without a second thought.

But now…

Times have changed.

Did they still have the entitlement to attack Immortal Domain?!

Heaven help them, those freaks were still competing with the Immortal Kings of Alien Territory on the heavenly battlefield.

It was said to be a competition, but in truth, they were adding luster to their own reputation; the disciple of that person almost swept through the kings of Alien Territory.

Even below the Immortal Realm, Alien Territory was almost always on the losing side, utterly defeated.

Yet even so, they dared not speak their anger.

And in everyone’s view, for Alien Territory, this was even a kind of indirect protection.
