Chapter Four Hundred and Ninety Two – Greenwood Secret Realm (2/2)

“Big Brother, are you alright?” Zuo Mo asked carefully.

The green-haired male did not pay attention to him. A long while later, he gave a long sigh and said, “So the Sun Tribe is also gone.”

Zuo Mo nodded. “Gone a long time ago. There are no tribes now, no totems. I’ve gone to the Sealed Extinction Battlefield, there is a patch of gold crystal sand sea there, it should be the place that a warrior of the Sun Tribe fell. Oh, I also saw the Sun Crystal Seed.”

Zuo Mo recalled the Sun Crystal Seed that he had gotten from the Sealed Extinction Battlefield. After the strange corpse sealed the Sun Crystal Seed, it was like a normal crystal ball.

He only knew this was something good but up until now, he did not know how to use it. The strange corpse only told him this was a good item, but Zuo Mo couldn’t even determine its grade, and didn’t know when he could use it.

Wealth should not be shown. Zuo Mo did not know if the other would be greedy so he didn’t plan on taking it out.

“Sun Crystal Seed … … as strong as the Sun Tribe is, it cannot escape the ravages of time.” The green-haired male sighed and then he suddenly raised his head to look at Zuo Mo with a wry smile. “Even if I take it, your Sun Crystal Seed is useless to me. Do not worry that I will take it.”

Zuo Mo almost choked on air. He was shocked inside, and the next words the green-haired man almost caused his soul to depart.

“A person that has the power to seal the Sun Crystal Seed is very strong!” the green-haired male said lightly.

Even with Zuo Mo’s thick face, he felt unable to bear up with being exposed but what he was shocked even more at was the power of the green-haired male!

The other was even able to examine what was inside his ring. How great was his power!

“No wonder you were able to enter here,” the green-haired-male said to himself, “fate naturally occurs.”

Zuo Mo was confused and couldn’t help but ask, “Big Brother, what are you talking about?”

The green-haired male suddenly raised his head and smiled slightly. “Your luck is pretty good, come inside with me.”

Zuo Mo felt his vision blur and then he was at a different place.

When he looked around, his mouth instantly opened and could not close.

Looking around, he saw endless dense forests. Tree crowns formed a vast ocean of trees. He was able to see ancient yao beasts suddenly appear and disappear among the ocean of trees.

Zuo Mo was on the crown of an enormous tree.

What was strangest was that there were seven suns on the sky above his head that were like seven enormous fireballs hanging on the firmament.

“This is the Greenwood Secret Realm,” the green-haired male said faintly. There was a transparent bubble in his hand and inside it was a miniature tree ocean.

“Greenwood Secret Realm?” Zuo Mo asked.

“The Sun Tribe was one of the strongest tribes, and their temples were spread across the land. See the seven suns above your head? They symbolize the status of this shen temple, the highest ranked shen temple will have ten suns.”

The green-haired male slowly said, “The shen temple is primarily fire-oriented and so it has gold, wood, water, and earth realms positioned to guard the four cardinal directions of the temple. Each secret realm has a defender, and I am the defender for Greenwood Secret Realm.”

Zuo Mo gaped.

“I’m not some big brother,” the green-haired male said with a bitter smile, “those that guard the secret realms are experts that the Sun Tribe have captured from other tribes. I remember who I am now. I am the sun of the Green Vine tribe, Qing Ling. The realm masters of the three other secret realms are also experts of other tribes.”

Zuo Mo was even more stunned. He finally seemed to understand a bit of how powerful the Sun Tribe had been in the past.

“The Sun tribe has fallen, we will also die.” Qing Ling had an expression of release.

Zuo Mo jumped. “Why is it like this?”

“All of us had jinzhi set into us. The Sun Tribe has fallen, so theoretically, we should have died long ago. But the shen temple was suddenly closed down in the past and was blocked off from the outside world. It also blocked off the power of the jinzhi. Now that the shen temple is going to open andsee the light of day again, the power of the jinzhi will not be blocked any longer.

The green-haired male’s tone was nonchalant. Seeing Zuo Mo’s panicked expression, he comforted, “This is a kind of release for us. The shen temple has been closed off for so many years, without the power of the totem, it is a fate worse than death when the jinzhi causes a backlash every decade.

He did not want to speak more of the topic and said, “You have the Sun Crystal Seed so you should not have any problem inside the shen temple if you do not go to places too dangerous. The Sun Tribe had been dominant for a time and there are countless treasures inside the shen temple. Even though much has been destroyed but there should be some things remaining, this is an opportunity for you.”

“However ,before that, you need shen power.”

These words were like a basin of cold water that poured from head to toe. Zuo Mo’s heart was cold.

Why did it still need shen power … …

Seeing the expression on Zuo Mo’s face was as though he was going to cry without tears, the green-haired male said with a smile, “You have the Sun Crystal Seed. Helping you will not betray the jinzhi of the shen temple. I can help you think of a way with shen power.”

Zuo Mo’s eyes instantly lit up and he hurriedly said, “What way?”

Translator Ramblings: Zuo Mo … … making friends with random people … … Exhibit A, Pu Yao, Exhibit B, Shi. You ever get the feeling he’s a magnet for antiques?
