nChapter 846: Shocking Truth
nEditor: Dragon Boat Translation
nThe canopy resembled a lush green umbrella, shading the entire sky. The crisscrossing branches were like the ribs of the umbrella, while the luxuriant green leaves formed the canopy, supporting this world just like the legendary World Tree.
nAccording to Ji Chen’s estimation, this giant tree was at least tens of thousands of meters tall. However, it might have appeared so towering due to the special spatial rules of the Divine Realm.
nHowever, this giant tree actually supported the core of the entire Natural Divine Realm.
nThe taller and thicker the tree, the more vast and expansive the space it could support. It was a treasure nurtured by generations of natural divine spirits over countless ages.
nAbove the canopy and trunk was the realm of the gods.
nAmong the dense branches and green leaves, Ji Chen saw two coffins wrapped and entwined by vines, hanging in a cavity at the center of the canopy.
nThe coffins seemed to have been closed and motionless for a long time. Moss covered their surfaces, and unknown plants spread along the vines onto the coffins, giving them a vibrant appearance.
nCentered around the two coffins, there emanated a terrifying aura that made all living beings tremble.
nAnd this kind of aura, Ji Chen had felt it before.
n—Divine.
nThere was no doubt that inside the coffins lay two divine spirits, most likely the two natural divine spirits who had survived since the first Divine War.
nSeeing this scene, even the heroes of the Ocean Crown couldn’t help but hold their breaths, their eyes fixed on the coffins as if expecting them to sit up at any moment.
nHowever, after a long time, the coffins only emitted a daunting aura, remaining motionless.
nThe heroes all looked at Ji Chen, asking what should be done next.
nJi Chen looked thoughtfully at the two coffins and said, “Open the coffins.”
nImmediately, the four Divine Crystal Wyverns lined up and flew into the canopy at a steady pace. Compared to the gigantic trunk, their seemingly robust bodies appeared petite, effortlessly maneuvering through the branches and leaves.
nAs they approached, Ji Chen kept a close watch on whether the coffins showed any signs of movement. Yet, even when the Divine Crystal Wyverns approached the two coffins, there was still no movement.
nSeeing this scene, a glint flashed in Ji Chen’s eyes.
nThe Divine Crystal Wyverns flew closer, trying to find seams between the coffin and its lid to pry them open. However, these two coffins seemed to be naturally integrated, without even a crack, let alone a seam.
nThe coffins appeared to be one solid piece. If it weren’t for their shape and style indicating that they were undoubtedly coffins for burial, people might have mistaken them for two pieces of wood.
n“Step back; I’ll handle this personally.”
n“Lord, this seems too dangerous,” the heroes exclaimed hastily. “Why not let us try it out first?”
nJi Chen shook his head gently and said in a deep voice, “Perhaps only those who possess the authority of the natural divine lineage can unveil the veil of what happened here.”
nAlice and the others exchanged glances but nodded nonetheless, following closely behind, their eyes fixed on the two coffins.
nIf there was any movement, they would immediately shield Lord Ji Chen with their bodies.
nJi Chen appeared quite relaxed, walking along the sturdy branches capable of supporting a galloping horse to reach the two coffins below, and then made a shocking move that stunned everyone.
nWith thunderous power in his hand, he struck directly at one of the coffins, but what happened next was even more astonishing.
nThe coffin, struck by the thunder, trembled abruptly after a brief pause, as if something inside the coffin was about to awaken.
nThe vines connecting it were stimulated in some way, breaking one after another, and the coffin fell heavily onto the tree trunk with a loud “thud.”
nThe heroes instantly became vigilant, instinctively protecting the lord behind them, their eyes full of vigilance and horror. However, after staring for quite a while, they found that nothing happened despite the coffin shaking for a moment.
n“This…”
n“It’s alright.”
nAt some point, a crack opened in the coffin. Ji Chen walked over and reached out to lift the lid along the crack.
nWhen he saw what was inside the coffin, a look of confirmation appeared on his face.
nInside the coffin, there was no so-called divine corpse; there was only a greenish crystal ball, seemingly containing some kind of energy.
nWithout much hesitation, Ji Chen reached out.
nThe moment his fingers touched the crystal ball, the scene shifted, and his consciousness entered a strange white space without boundaries.
nSuddenly, screens appeared one after another, recording information, and scenes flashed before his eyes like a revolving lantern.
nIt was the war of the gods that swept through the entire main world hundreds of thousands of years ago, involving the void and countless secret realms. The gods in the sky, driven by their interests, mobilized their believers to conquer the heretics. The creatures on the earth suffered, and the land was filled with corpses and blood.
nAlthough it only lasted for a hundred years, this short period nearly depleted the resources accumulated over endless years in the main world and secret realms.
nOnce prosperous villages turned into scorched earth, abundant rivers dried up, fertile lands degraded into deserts and wastelands, and the mountains were dotted with unsightly mines dug at any cost to extract resources…
nAll of this was difficult for the nature-loving gods of the natural god system to accept. So, under the prayers of the followers of the natural god sect, they decided to join the war of the gods.
nStop the war with war and restore vitality to the earth as soon as possible.
nHowever, the intensity of the divine war far exceeded their imagination. Nine out of eleven gods of the natural god system fell, and even the only main god of the god system fell, leaving only one lesser god and one intermediate god remaining..
