No one lives here, yet it is fully equipped.
This place was built by the Zhao Family for the Divine Tree, awaiting the day it can take form and reside here.
At the center of the courtyard grows a towering tree several dozen zhang tall, its massive canopy resembling a small mountain.
This is the Divine Tree, and the courtyard was constructed centered around it.
The Divine Tree is as robust as a dragon, its dark and cracked bark akin to being covered in scale armor.
Not far away is a large sacrificial altar, stained with blood, below which lies a bottomless pit.
A white-haired elder kneels at the altar, muttering to himself; he is the Zhao Family Ancestor, a Celestial Human Fifth-Grade Martial Artist.
A giant face emerges on the tree trunk: "Meat, I want meat, I'm about to transform soon!"
The Zhao Family Ancestor stops chanting and raises his head: "Soon, Tree God, most of the ritual is complete, you'll soon be able to feast on the offerings."
