GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1531 How It Starts.

Chapter 1531 How It Starts.

Normally, the realm tree ought to call its children both inward and outward to come and test their worth within the tower of heaven. The message was supposed to be short and succinct. The trial of heaven would then start 800 years later.

But this time the realm tree didn't call its children to the trial of heaven. She did give them a message as usual.

She said, "We have survived another Origin cycle. The realm tree blooms again. But this might be the last time. This is because the whole realm faces a trial greater than the trial of heaven. It faces a trial that will determine its fate."

Mother High Heaven's voice rang in all their minds. From the lowest intelligent beast to the highest Supreme Origin gods. They heard her regardless of their location in the void universe. They all heard her voice clearly, as if she were speaking directly and close to them.

"Victory or defeat. Survival or death. Those are the only two outcomes, so the realm must fight for its survival in this Origin cycle. If it doesn't achieve victory before the next Origin cycle, then it will die."

"The fight for the era of conquest is here. Fight for its survival, and you will be rewarded. Fight and bring honor to the realm. Fight for your mother and make her proud."

Her speech ended on that note, leaving a lingering sense of pride and imploration. It made all who heard her know that she was proud of them. She is proud far more than any parent can be. She has nurtured them into great beings, and she needs them now. She wants their help, or she will die.

Her speech caused a myriad of reactions from everyone who heard it. The most common reaction was the stirring of the fighting spirit. This is especially true of Origin gods who are immortal and have very little to worry about. This might be a matter of life and death for the realm tree, but it is a great opportunity for them. Since they can't die, there's very little stopping them from participating in this trial.

Most world gods who got this information were subdued emotionally. The survival of the realm has nothing to do with them. They are so detached from the realm tree that Mother High Heaven's message didn't reach them directly. They heard it from other sources.

If not for the fact that the realm lord has made it so that they have something to gain from the outcome of the era of conquest, most of them would have returned to sleep. They would have yawned, but now they have something to lose if they sleep.

Many world gods began to move into action. Some moved to support the realm tree, while others moved to antagonize it. The beings that want the realm tree to fail the era of conquest and die are doing it to spite the realm lord.

They are great beings with perfect memory. They can still remember the unpleasant emotions they felt when he cut off the supply of life trees for their inner worlds. They promised to make him pay, and they will deliver on that promise. If the realm lord still won't capitulate and give them life trees, then they will ensure that there won't be any future for him anymore.

These world gods didn't rush yet to pressure the realm lord. They waited for the other realm tree that would participate in the era of conquest to be announced.

They know that the realm lord is mad. He won't do what they want, no matter how much they threaten him. They have to put in actual effort in order for him to see the error of his ways and regret his actions. Only when his own path is about to be cut off will he capitulate, and they are waiting to see it happen.

The announcement of the era of conquest kicked off the execution of plans that had been in the works from the very moment that the realm tree gained a realm lord. Some great entities with even better sight have prepared for the era of conquest way before there was a realm lord.

But to all these great beings, the era of conquest is a game with benefits to be gained. Only those beneath the level of Origin gods feel the danger of the era of conquest.

For starters, Sovereigns of law can't become Origin gods through the trial of heaven anymore. That's just the start of the impact of that announcement. The second impact was the immediate removal of the suppression of Origin gods within the realm tree.

It means Origin gods won't feel unpleasant in the realm tree anymore and can go all out. When combined with the massive influx of Origin gods into the realm because of the upcoming era of conquest, the realm of high heaven became a den of lions for everyone who wasn't an immortal.

The realm war hasn't started yet, but the whole realm has become the immortal lands for Sovereigns of law and weaker beings. There is danger everywhere, and they can die at any moment.

It is clear to them that they have no part in the coming realm war if they can't even survive being around their allies. If not for the negative points gained from killing the living beings of the plane, then most inhabitants of planes would be wiped out in a day.

The danger of Origin gods came suddenly and powerfully. It became the focus and was prioritized above the fact that the only way to become an Origin god now is through tribulation. They couldn't help but be focused on it because a lot of living beings died despite Mother High Heaven's measures to prevent it. It is because it is too easy for Origin gods to kill. A single activation of their domain can clear out their surroundings of life.
