Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity
Chapter 992 - Chapter 992 Chapter 624 Who Dares to be so Bold

Chapter 992: Chapter 624: Who Dares to be so Bold? Chapter 992: Chapter 624: Who Dares to be so Bold? Although some time had passed since the Void God Realm was breached, the Big Red Bird on Bird Grandpa’s shoulder was still utterly bare, with not a feather in sight.

In the howling cold wind, only a few tail feathers still fluttered and drifted, without much new feather growth.

The Big Red Bird squawked in distress, still feeling the biting cold from on high.

There was no helping it, as the black fog that resembled sticky ink emitted an unspeakably chilly aura, bone-chillingly cold, like a whip studded with ice shards fiercely lashing out. In addition, the lack of feathers on its body to keep warm naturally made it colder.

“I have no clue what Huang was thinking. We already told him that the title ‘Heavenly Court’ shouldn’t be used lightly, burdened with great karma, but he just wouldn’t listen and has been stubborn from childhood.

He hasn’t come down to see us two old fellows for such a long time, do you think he might have encountered some trouble?”

Listening to Bird Grandpa’s words, Grandpa Jing Bi sighed, speaking with evident concern.

Shi Hao had once discussed with them when he was preparing to establish the Heavenly Court.

Back then, he had directly warned Shi Hao that the title ‘Heavenly Court’ was different from other powers.

Those two words seemed to be connected to even more ancient times, an era where even Quasi-Emperors could fall, shrouding unimaginable secrets.

While it seemed to have no effect for the time being, over time, when the enormous karma descended, it would surely lead to terrible consequences beyond prediction.

If there wasn’t sufficient power to suppress it, it was best not to casually use these two words as the name of a power.

Even swapping out one of the words would have been better.

However, Shi Hao ultimately did not heed his advice.

He still established the Heavenly Court.

“That’s hard to say,” Bird Grandpa scratched his head.

“Old buddy, you’re absolutely right!”

“Despite the enormous karma involved with the title ‘Heavenly Court’ and the shadow of the Ancient Guidance Palace behind it, Huang after all, is not like others…

He has always been special, especially prominent from the moment he entered the Void God Realm. Have you ever seen anyone who dared to target the Pure Wall on the bridge to the primordial land upon entering?

I remember Huang once mentioned that he had a good private relationship with The Master of Liu Village and was on particularly good terms with some of the young prodigies of Liu Village.

If what Huang told us before wasn’t an exaggeration, then The Master of Liu Village is someone who could suppress Ao Sheng, the Primordial, and Primitive, the three great Fairy King Giants, with a flick of his hand.

With such a deterrent presence, unless one is blinded by folly and seeking death, one should find it hard to encounter any danger!”

Bird Grandpa frowned and, upon listening to Grandpa Jing Bi’s words, hurriedly stuffed the Big Red Bird into his embrace.

Not without reason.

Those few feathers were simply too eye-catching.

If the wind blew like this, the last few remaining tail feathers would be lost too.

“That’s hard to say, even if Huang is extraordinary, at most he is just a junior. After all, it’s the Village Head who has the say in the city, not the Sovereign of the Celestial Court, so why should everything fall on them to stand up for Huang!”

During their conversation, the two had already rushed above the vault of heaven.

Looking afar, a massive sun hung suspended, emitting scorching heatwaves.

This place was virtually on the verge of the boundless Star Sea, where the black fog’s height was limited and couldn’t reach this area for the moment.

Within the Star Sea, some ancient life-bearing stars twinkled, and Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi could see powerful creatures sitting cross-legged within them, absorbing the energy of heaven and earth.

Certainly, not all creatures had moved to the Immortal Domain; some had remained and migrated to life-bearing ancient stars nearby.

Beside that giant sun, one could vaguely make out a portal’s silhouette, not much smaller than the sun itself.

Not very distinct.

It only became a bit clearer when the heatwaves churned past.

“The Immortal Gate!”

Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi exchanged a glance, their faces lit with joy as they hurriedly headed toward the gateway.

They had naturally visited the Immortal Domain before, at which time the Immortal Gate was also in a sealed state.

When they got to a certain distance.

The huge portal became utterly clear within their view.

Ancient, mysterious.

It was carved with many complex and enigmatic totems, emitting the surging aura of Chaos Qi.

“The Immortal Gate seems to have been modified by someone!”

Upon closer inspection,

Bird Grandpa spoke softly.

The appearance of the Immortal Gate now differed from their memory.

“It’s probably because of The Master of Liu Village.”

“I will knock!”

Grandpa Jing Bi gave Bird Grandpa a look and walked up to the massive gate, then with all his might, knocked heavily.

The gate was so large that it honestly might not budge without some force.

However, even though Grandpa Jing Bi put in as much effort as if his life depended on it, not a single sound came from the gate.

Everything seemed to vanish without a trace.

Just as the two wore puzzled expressions,

A crack suddenly opened beside the massive gate, showing half of a body.

It was a middle-aged man wearing armor, with bushy eyebrows and large eyes.

He looked left and right before finally fixing his gaze on Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi, asking them with a tone of suspicion,

“Who are you? Knocking on the door so early in the morning, you almost shattered my eardrums. Didn’t you know to knock gently three times?”

“Hah! A mere armor-clad guard, how do you dare to talk like this? Do you know who we are?”

Bird Grandpa glowered fiercely.

The Big Red Bird in his embrace followed suit, glaring with its large bird eyes, full of intimidation.

He was an Immortal King.

Once exalted above all.

How dare a mere gatekeeper speak to him with such a tone?

Though he was not the type to flaunt his power–
