Inside the great hall, lacquered black spirit tablets were stacked a full ten layers high, forming what looked like a tall Treasure Tower.
Ten layers of tablets suggested this was a village with a long, continuous history.
Normally, in a village with such a long history, the power of the ancestral Heroic Spirits in its hall should be quite strong. Even members of the Demon Race who had gained sentience at the Spirit Communication Stage wouldn't dare to provoke such a village.
But at this very moment, these ten layers of tablets were a mess of fallen and decaying wood.
Below the tablets, a long altar table was laden with offering bowls. But the contents of those bowls were either moldy and rotten or shriveled and black, looking as if they had been neglected for ages, or perhaps had suddenly suffered some terrifying corrosion.
