The Soaring Cloud City fell into darkness, and the people fell into endless fear. However, at that moment, a hole suddenly opened in the dark clouds in the sky.
Moonlight shone through this opening. This moonlight seemed to be a signal. As the moonlight shone, the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and the world regained its brightness.
Then, people saw a person standing in the sky, holding a broken bronze sword in his right hand and a golden gem in his left.
Everyone in the Soaring Cloud City immediately cheered. Their fear was dispelled and replaced by the joy of surviving the disaster. Some people hugged each other and cried. Some were silent, but tears flowed down their faces. Some cheered loudly, while others pressed their palms together and kept praying.
The Legendary Ant had been completely killed by Wei Huo. Its spirit and body had been devoured by the aura of nirvanic extermination. This had made Wei Huo's Nirvana Domain more than three times stronger.
However, Wei Huo's realm did not increase because of this, as he had yet to comprehend anything.
After reaching the Legendary Realm, if one wanted to advance further, half of it would depend on comprehension and the other half on the accumulation of essence, qi, and spirit. This was the dual cultivation of life and spirit that the Eldest Senior Brother had mentioned.
At that moment, Wei Huo was holding the golden gem in his left hand and the broken bronze sword in his right. He was carefully comprehending the 'Dao' in both of them.
By observing the Dao of others, one could perfect one's own Dao.
Wei Huo stood in the air without moving. His eyes were closed as he carefully comprehended the Dao of others and perfected his own Dao. He entered a mysterious state.
At this moment, a staff member in the command room of the armored city wall suddenly shouted in joy, "The latest news about the city lord. The pursuers have been killed by a man and a dragon. At this moment, the city lord is rushing back!"
The people in the command room were shocked at first, then overjoyed. The staff sitting in their seats all jumped up. Some hugged each other, some high-fived each other, and all of them were overjoyed.
Zhao Pingfan breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness the City Lord is fine. Alright, it's time for me to return to my post. The quantum entanglement phenomenon and the Grand Unification Formula are still fascinating."
Everyone was stunned for a moment. They all knew that Zhao Pingfan did not seek fame and fortune. They all knew that he was obsessed with scientific research, but everyone was also very sure of his position as the second-in-command. Once the City Lord went out, all affairs were approved by him, and they were orderly and never made a mistake.
Everyone couldn't help but sigh. The City Lord really had a good eye for talent.
Wei Huo ignored everything and immersed himself in his comprehension. He felt his thoughts expanding infinitely and spreading to every corner of the world.
This was a strange state. It was as if the body had disappeared, and the soul had broken free from its shackles and continued to extend.
Soon, Wei Huo saw many creatures dying. He saw an antelope being killed by a ferocious tiger and a self-destructing sheep perishing together with a player.
Wei Huo saw endless scenes of death. There were humans, animals, and even aliens.
It was an alien spaceship. It was oval-shaped and looked like a rugby ball. It fell from the sky and smashed into a desert in the northern continent. The spaceship exploded, and all the aliens on it died tragically.
Soon, Wei Huo understood that his soul had not really extended infinitely. Instead, it had received countless pieces of information related to death in the world.
Wei Huo received countless images of death. There were not only animals, but also plants and microorganisms.
Wei Huo saw a 700-year-old tree being struck to death by lightning, a virus being devoured by white blood cells, and an Epic-ranked creature dying deep underground.
In the end, Wei Huo saw a huge iceberg on the sea. The surface of the sea emitted a faint blue glow. Humans, animals, and plants were frozen inside the iceberg, but they were all blurry.
Wei Huo wanted to take a closer look at the frozen people in the iceberg. As soon as that thought appeared in his mind, the image started enlarging. Wei Huo felt the people in the iceberg getting clearer. In the end, Wei Huo finally saw the people, animals, and plants at the front of the iceberg.
However, those people were all people Wei Huo knew. There was Lu Qiqi, Chen Xuanyue, Xiao Bing, Wei Sha, and the Tree-Man. Among the animals were the fat tiger and panda that Wei Huo had encountered before, as well as the purple cat and Gold-Eater Rat that he had subdued later. The plants were mostly mutant and divine materials, such as pomegranates and peaches.
The iceberg was filled with people or things related to Wei Huo, but he was not there. Besides, this was only the tip of the iceberg. Wei Huo could not see the part under the sea at all. That part was covered by the sea, and blue light kept emitting from the sea.
Wei Huo was shocked. A moment later, the image shattered, and Wei Huo retreated from the mysterious realm.
He was hesitant. He felt that the last scene might be a dream and that there was no need to care about it. However, it could also be a prophetic dream.
However, why was he not in the iceberg?
Wei Huo thought about it for a long time. In the end, he sighed and mumbled, "Everything has an end. I'm no exception unless I transcend."
Wei Huo saw many images of death and thought about it for a long time. In the end, he understood that all living creatures in this world could not escape death. Even planets, stars, and this world would come to an end.
People at the peak of the Legendary stage could only live for 7,000 years. Although he had been rewarded with a lifespan by the game system, it was only 3,000 years. In other words, even if he cultivated to the peak of the Legendary stage, he would only have a lifespan of 10,000 years.
Besides, the soul lifespan reward had been obtained because of a huge bug. It was no longer possible to obtain a soul lifespan like that. When Wei Huo had been cultivating, his lifespan had not been divided into soul lifespan and body lifespan. That was why the 3,000 years of lifespan he had obtained from cultivation had been added to his soul lifespan and body lifespan. However, that was not possible now.
The current Refining Qi Technique could only increase the lifespan of the body. Only the Refining Qi Technique could increase the lifespan of the soul.
Fortunately, Wei Huo knew the whereabouts of the strongest Qi-Refining technique, the Dao Scripture. If he cultivated the Dao Scripture, he might be able to increase his lifespan by thousands of years.
Wei Huo sighed. It was time to continue traveling west!
The Dragon Vein was under his feet, flowing endlessly from west to east. According to historical records, Kunlun Mountain was the ancestor of all dragons and the source of all Dragon Veins. If he followed the Dragon Vein all the way to the end of the Dragon Vein, he would definitely reach Kunlun Mountain.
Wei Huo did not know how long he had been enlightened. He only knew that it was no longer night. It was broad daylight with a clear sky. The sun was high in the sky, and sunlight kept shining.
Wei Huo turned around and looked at the Soaring Cloud City. However, all he saw was a Soaring Cloud City with a roof. It was like a steamer lid.
Wei Huo was a little surprised. While he was enlightened, the Soaring Cloud City's Zenith Plan had succeeded.
Ma Tengyun should have returned by now, and Wei Huo did have many things to ask him. Besides, Wei Huo planned to use a scanner to scan the mechanical core of the Soaring Cloud City. This thing might be useful in the future.
