CHAPTER 317: CHAPTER 317: THE ANCIENT BATTLEFIELD

"But by the time all the demon energy was cleansed, the spiritual energy in the lower world was already very scarce and managing to cultivate immortality had become almost a dream.

In the ancient battlefield, the gods fought with the demons for hundreds of years and finally won the war. But most of the gods had fallen and only a handful survived.

After leaving the ancient battlefield, they decided to live in seclusion and left the rest of the upper world to the normal immortals.

Luckily, some of the fallen gods who didn’t have their souls destroyed or had a small part of their souls left had a chance to be reincarnated.

However, no one knew whether they would be reincarnated in the upper or lower world. The only thing certain was that when they were reincarnated, a phenomenon would be witnessed in the upper world regardless of where they were.

The phenomenon would depend on their abilities, thus, it would be possible to identify which God had reincarnated.

Not many gods managed to preserve a part of their souls, but some of those who managed to do it have already reincarnated.

However, it’s possible that they haven’t found an opportunity to awaken their godhood because they also lack the memories of when they were gods.

This ancient battlefield had the restrictions loosen a little during the battle between the gods and the demons, but the restrictions are still very strong.

As for why it has appeared here, the only reason I can think of is that it was pulled here by a certain force. That force should be because a god who happens to have left something that contains his or her soul power inside the battlefield has reincarnated in this world.

Getting that thing could help them regain their memories and get a chance to awaken their godhood again.

I am guessing that the restrictions on the entrance would take at least a month or two to completely fade.

Master, why don’t you come and cultivate here? I see that you are as weak as a chicken. Cultivating here will help you advance faster. The spiritual energy here is denser and purer than other places." Little White said a lot of things which shocked everyone there.

They had always thought that the things about immortals and gods mentioned in the history books were all made up to make their past seem more glorious.

They hadn’t expected it to be true. Moreover, hearing the tiger talk about how a God had reincarnated in this world, they wanted to meet him or her very much. They wanted to know what it felt like to see a god or live in the same world, time, and space with one.

"So, what you mean is that in a month or two, the restriction here would disappear and people can enter the ancient battlefield for experience?" Chu Miao asked the tiger.

"Yes, but it’s better that the people entering are cultivators of at least the foundation establishment realm. Even though it has been thousands of years since the gods fell, the pressure inside is still very strong.

It would crash anyone below the foundation establishment realm into meat paste.

So, among all these people here, master is the only one qualified to enter, and maybe the fearsome lord next to master." Little White said begrudgingly.

"But Ah Xuan is only in the sixth level of Qi refinement, how can he enter and be safe?" Chu Miao asked in surprise.

It wasn’t that it doubted the tiger but she didn’t understand why Ye Xuan was different.

"He has a very strong aura that can’t be crushed by the pressure inside. So, he can enter safely.

If the others want to enter, they have to work harder and advance to the foundation establishment realm soon. If their talent is good, the pure spiritual energy here can help them." Little White added.

"Alright then, are you going to continue staying here or are you coming with me? We have something to do and will be back later with others to cultivate." Chu Miao asked the little tiger still snuggling with her brother.

"I’ll go with master." Little White jumped to the ground and started walking away from the ancient battlefield.

It looked as if it was afraid its master would leave it behind.

Of course it was afraid of being left behind. Its master can be very unreliable sometimes. The last time it and the others let their guard down, the master broke the soul contract with them and went off to die alone in battle.

It wasn’t about to make the same mistake again. If it let the master escape again, it could be sure that the others would tear it apart once they reunited.

Seeing how eager Little White was to leave, the others laughed. It behaved like a child afraid of getting abandoned.

Chu Miao exchanged looks with Ye Xuan and smiled before they followed the tiger.

After walking back to the original path, the group continued to walk up the mountain towards where the bunker was.

When they got near the bunker, they realized that the plants around one of the biggest trees they had ever seen were all yellow and looked like they would die anytime.

While this would have been a sign of waterlog due to floods there wasn’t stagnant water on the mountain.

Moreover, the tree surrounded by these dying plants looked too lush and green. The trunk was larger than anything they had seen and branches almost touched the ground.

Since Little White had been told where to go, it had been running ahead of the group, but as soon as it came near the tree, it stopped.

"Master, that tree is dangerous. You have to be careful." Little White said to Chu Miao after she and the others caught up with it.

"What’s up with the tree?" Chu Hao walked up to Little White and picked it up.

"Cannibalism. It has not only drained all the nutrients from the plants around it, but it has also eaten many animals in this area.

If you are not careful, you will become its next meal." Little White explained while eying the tree.
