The countdown to Earth's apocalypse had begun. It was not long before the apocalypse arrived. However, apart from the Zergs, the Atlanteans were also spying on Earth.
Although the battle had erupted in the territory of the Atlanteans, the Atlanteans had already transferred most of their elites, children, and a small number of young Legendary experts away.
Besides, after the battle with the giant snake, they had received news that the giant snake would definitely die in 55 years. They could then wait for the giant snake to die and search for the remaining corpse of the giant snake and retrieve the divine artifact of their race, the Phantom Staff.
Therefore, the Atlanteans waited quietly. However, a small number of Atlanteans planned to come to the land world to take a look. The Atlanteans had a long lifespan, and 55 years was nothing. They traveled to the land world just to kill time.
The seventh brother of the Atlantean leader was such a person. He had come to the land world alone and lived there for a long time.
However, a few Atlantean guards found him today.
"Sir, the leader asked us to inform you that the time limit is almost up. It's time to return to the Midnight Sunset."
The younger brother shook his head. "There are still five years before Earth's apocalypse. What's the hurry?"
At this moment, the patriarch's younger brother was sitting on a chair under a bronze statue. He was watching a group of eight or nine year old children playing around. He was holding a bag in his hand. Originally, there were some candies inside, but just now, he had already distributed the candies to the children.
The younger brother of the leader and a few Atlantean guards had transformed into land people and were wearing land people's clothes. They did not want to alarm the land people.
The Atlantean guards did not say anything. The younger brother of the leader had too much power, so they did not dare disobey him. They could only follow him closely and listen to his orders.
The younger brother of the leader was very young. He was only about 500 years old. He liked the land people very much and had once proposed to leave Earth with them, but the leader had rejected him.
"We don't have that much power and space to care about the land people. Besides, the land people already know that the apocalypse is about to happen. They will build their own spacecraft and leave Earth," the leader said. He had completely given up on the land people.
The patriarch's younger brother sighed. He knew that with the current technological means of the mainlanders, it was impossible to build a spaceship that could cross the void. It was even a problem to build enough spaceships to accommodate everyone within 55 years.
The chief's younger brother looked at the group of children and said, "I want to take some mainlanders with me."
One of the guards was shocked and quickly said, "Sir, the chief has already made it clear that we can't bring the mainlanders along. Let them fend for themselves."
The patriarch's younger brother glanced at the guard coldly and said, "Why? Can't I bring more than 10 mainland children with me? The mainlanders are of the same origin as us. Is there anything wrong with me taking away a dozen mainlanders so that they can continue to live on? "
The attendants heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Of course it's not a big deal to take away only a dozen people. As long as you're happy."
Only then did the patriarch's younger brother's expression soften. He stood up and was about to leave the square when the group of children shouted at him, "Goodbye, Uncle Zhang Li!"
Zhang Li's younger brother nodded at them. "Goodbye, I'll be back here tomorrow."
The attendants looked at each other speechlessly. They understood why the patriarch's younger brother had such an attitude towards mainlanders.
His help was only out of sympathy and guilt. It was just like how humans destroyed nature and caused some animals to have no living space. Then, they helped those animals out of sympathy and guilt.
Zhang Li said, "It's very interesting to observe the mainlanders. Although their technology and thinking are backward, we can find some advantages that we can learn from. You guys came at the right time. Bring back the observation notes I've collected over the past 30 years."
The attendants answered yes and asked, "Sir, are the notes made of paper?"
Zhang Li glanced at them. "Do you even need to ask? Remember, take away all the calligraphy works, poems, comics, novels, and other collectibles of the mainlanders that I've collected. Don't let any of them be damaged. These things are treasures, and we may never see them again after Earth is destroyed. "
The attendants could only nod in agreement.
Zhang Li was observing the mainlanders carefully, but he had not expected that someone would be observing him too.
The person observing him was Wei Huo. At that moment, Wei Huo, who was still in his Phantom Body state, was observing him.
Wei Huo was like a ghost. He wandered around and went wherever he wanted to go. Sometimes, he would sleep for a few years. Sometimes, he would watch the tides rise and fall for a few years. Sometimes, he would stare at a person and observe them.
Wei Huo had not encountered a second Phantom Body in this world. He had always been alone. At first, he had found it weird, but now, he was used to it.
He was used to being alone.
The path to the peak of the Legendary stage gradually appeared, and the barrier blocking his way gradually disappeared. Wei Huo felt like he had touched the true meaning of nirvanic extermination. His lonely life for nearly 50 years had finally produced some results.
This was a loneliness that could be felt even in the busiest and most bustling street. True loneliness did not lie in being in the desolate wilderness, but in the busiest and most crowded place, yet it was equivalent to being a non-existent person.
Many people did not feel lonely in the empty mountains, forests, deserts, or glaciers. Many people chatted with their friends and went to KTV every day, but they felt lonely.
That was because loneliness did not lie in the external environment, but in one's heart.
Over the years, Wei Huo had seen many people who were lonely in the bustling city. They were talking and laughing with their classmates, but it was just a perfunctory act. Their smiles were fake, and their happiness was fake. They were extremely lonely inside.
Wei Huo could feel this. Although the Devouring Rule devoured all spirits, this feeling appeared directly in his heart. This was empathy and he could ignore the rules.
Wei Huo wandered around and observed the world from a unique perspective. His understanding of the Nirvana Domain had improved. He could break through to the peak of the Legendary stage at any time, but he had to do something else. He had to comprehend the Phantom Body!
The so-called Phantom Body was actually eliminating one's existence completely and turning into a ghost that ignored any matter. Wei Huo was a person who did not have a sense of existence to begin with, so it was easier for him to comprehend the Phantom Body.
The Phantom Body was very strong. Not only could it ignore all physical attacks, but it could also move forward at the speed of light.
