Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!

Chapter277-Greenwood Temple

Hearing Daniel's remark, the 5-Element God King instinctively clasped his legs together.

Only then did he realize one thing: this was just his avatar!

What did his main body's nervousness have to do with his avatar?

Still, he had been startled.

Embarrassed, he quickly relaxed.

Noticing Daniel's amused expression, the 5-Element God King felt a little awkward,

unsure of what to say to change the subject.

"Fine, if you're coming along, let's go," Daniel said.

"Alright! Lord Daniel, where are we heading?

I might not know everything, but when it comes to the God Realm, I'm the expert!"

"I'm planning to head to the Greenwood God Realm," Daniel replied.

"Oh, that place, I'm familiar… wait, what? Greenwood God Realm?"

At the mention of Greenwood God Realm, unpleasant memories flooded the 5-Element God King's mind.

Those two months of hiding and fleeing in Greenwood God Realm had left him with a vivid impression.

He even knew the defensive layout of every corner of the realm.

Don't ask how; just know that facing life and death transformed him.

But then he remembered—this time, he wasn't sneaking around with Lomont, the former elder.

This time, he had Daniel by his side.

That realization instantly calmed the 5-Element God King.

He shook off the bad memories.

This time, he thought, he'd reclaim his dignity.

Who cared about the Greenwood God King? He'd kneel if necessary!

Turning to Daniel, he asked,

"Lord Daniel, what's the purpose of your visit to the Greenwood God Realm this time?"

"Do you remember what I inquired about when I first spoke with this avatar of yours?" Daniel asked.

How could the 5-Element God King forget?

The topic of world ascension had nearly cost him his life,

forcing him to flee for two months, narrowly escaping burial in Greenwood God Realm.

"Of course, I remember, Lord Daniel.

So, your objective this time is still about world ascension?"

"Exactly. It's still about world ascension. Enjoy more content from empire

I plan to see firsthand what progress Greenwood God Realm has made.

I recall you mentioned last time that their former elder was discovered."

"Moreover, Greenwood God Realm truly had some results.

That's why I'm heading there to investigate.

World ascension… is something I'm very interested in."

"Absolutely! I'm interested too!"

Perched on Daniel's shoulder, Big White chimed in eagerly.

After all, it wouldn't be long before its world ascended,

and it wouldn't hurt to gain some insight in advance.

"Children shouldn't interrupt when grown-ups are talking,"

the 5-Element God King said, looking at Big White.

"Do you even know what world ascension is?"

"Dummy uncle is such a dummy," Big White retorted before collapsing into laughter on Daniel's shoulder.

The 5-Element God King chose to ignore the remark, opting to take the high road.

The group set off toward the Greenwood God Realm.

The Greenwood God Realm was one of the most powerful God Realms in the southern regions.

Its ruler, the Greenwood God King, was an ancient and seasoned God King.

It was this prestige that allowed him to study world ascension.

Unlike the chaos caused by the Beast Clan's invasions elsewhere,

Greenwood God Realm remained unscathed.

In fact, its strength and stability had attracted refugees from affected realms.

Those with the means to migrate here—whether through wealth or power—did so.

As a result, Greenwood God Realm had flourished even further in recent years.

Over the past few years, two major events had occurred in the Greenwood God Realm.

The first was the defection of its former elder.

Even the Greenwood God King himself had taken action to apprehend the fleeing elder,

but to no avail.

Rumors circulated that the elder had likely aligned himself with a God King from the central God Realm,

making it politically untenable for Greenwood God Realm to pursue him further.

Another rumor suggested the elder had already been killed by the Greenwood God King,

explaining the lack of follow-up.

Either way, the incident wasn't something Greenwood God Realm wanted to publicize.

The second major event involved the relocation of Greenwood Temple,

the realm's capital.

At the time, many witnesses had watched as a massive hand lifted the entire temple

and set it down in a new location.

This sparked widespread speculation.

Some theorized Greenwood God Realm was preparing for war with a neighboring realm.

This caused widespread unease until Greenwood God Realm issued a public statement:

Unless unrest occurred, including but not limited to Beast Clan incursions,

Greenwood God Realm would not move against Lunar God Realm.

Yes, Lunar God Realm—one of the twin realms at the center of the God Realm.

Eventually, the speculation died down as Greenwood God Realm refrained from any provocative actions.

Its temple's relocation brought it closer to the central God Realm,

which many viewed as a positive development.

When Daniel and his companions arrived,

it felt like stepping into a primordial forest.

The lush greenery was almost surreal.

"Is this really Greenwood Temple?

It feels completely different from the 5-Element God Realm!" Big White exclaimed.

Even from the outskirts, the towering trees and dense forest were awe-inspiring.

"Is this really a temple?"

Such questions were common for first-time visitors to Greenwood Temple.

Even the 5-Element God King had been awestruck during his first visit.

He had never imagined a temple could look like this.

He recalled how the former elder had teased him relentlessly for his amazement.

But now, he was finally in a position to tease someone else!

"Never seen anything like it, have you?

This is Greenwood Temple!

Every God King designs their temple according to their aesthetic preferences

and the rules they master.

As for my 5-Element Temple, it's built to be as practical and unembellished as possible—

every material used efficiently, appealing to all tastes!"

"Look at this place, though.

These exaggerated trees were clearly forced into existence by Greenwood God King's rule."

The 5-Element God King couldn't resist taking a jab at Greenwood God King,

avenging his past humiliation.

"I see! So does that mean Greenwood Temple is somewhere within this forest?"

Big White asked curiously.

"No, it's not within the forest.

This entire forest is Greenwood Temple!"

The 5-Element God King gestured toward the vast expanse of trees.

Indeed, Greenwood Temple wasn't a singular building.

Unlike 5-Element Temple, which was a standalone structure, Greenwood Temple encompassed an entire forest.

Rather than a traditional temple, it resembled a sprawling city,

similar to the 5-Element Temple and its surrounding cities.

Many powerful beings chose to reside within this forest.

Each tree functioned as a dwelling,

and their interiors were unimaginably spacious.

This was something the 5-Element God King had learned firsthand

during those two months of hiding with Lomont.

It was no wonder so many people enjoyed living in such a tranquil, green environment.

Of course, such accommodations were reserved for the wealthy or powerful.

The rest of Greenwood God Realm's population lived in more conventional areas,

much like those in the 5-Element God Realm.
