The Earth was dying, and it was dying faster and faster.
The gold, silver, iron, and other heavy metals in the Earth's core had been spewed out by the huge volcano. The magnetic field on the Earth's surface had been produced by the movement of iron elements in the Earth's core. Now that the iron had been spewed out, the magnetic field on the Earth's surface had been weakening.
The weakening of the magnetic field had caused the Earth to be unable to resist the solar storm anymore. The atmosphere had been blown away, and the ocean had started drying up at an accelerated rate. Before long, the Earth would be devastated like Mars.
That was what the Atlanteans had done. They had destroyed the planet just to kill a Mythical giant snake. A giant snake that did not even have a name, a giant snake that had broken the game barrier and come to reality.
Wei Huo did not believe that it was really dead. The gluttonous snake's life was more exciting than anyone else's. It had experienced countless hardships and setbacks. It had broken the world barrier twice and might be able to break it a third time.
The Earth's core began to cool down, and a large amount of heat energy was emitted from the volcanic crater that was half the size of the Eurasian continent. It then spread into the cold universe. To this universe, the explosion of the Earth's core was like a match in a cold night. It would not be long before it was extinguished.
The earth-shattering disaster started to end. Wei Huo regained his physical form and arrived above the gigantic volcano. Wei Huo could still feel a scorching heat there, but it was dissipating rapidly. Wei Huo's eyes lit up.
The Earth was still rotating. Although its rotation speed had decreased, the cooling of the Earth's core could not stop the Earth from rotating. Now, the volcanic crater had turned to the back of the Earth. However, because the Earth's magnetic field was weak and the atmosphere had been blown away by the solar wind, the cold had suddenly arrived.
The low temperature attacked the back of the Earth. Without sunlight, this place would become a dead land. However, the volcanic crater was still emitting heat. The energy of the Earth's core had not been completely released. After most of the energy rushed out, a portion of the energy was retained because the pressure had decreased.
This energy might take millions of years to be completely exhausted. That was why the volcanic crater was still emitting heat.
This was something to be happy about. At the very least, as long as one was near the volcanic crater, one would not have to worry about being frozen to death at night.
Wei Huo landed on the edge of the volcano. The volcano was like an extremely huge chimney. It was extremely tall, more than 30 kilometers tall, and its diameter was more than 1,900 kilometers. It was far larger than the largest volcano on Mars. Wei Huo landed on the edge of the volcano.
Even if one was in outer space, one could still see the huge volcanic crater that looked like an eye. The pupil of the eye was still fiery red, and it would take millions of years to extinguish.
However, there was another thing to be happy about. There was still a mountain on Earth. This mountain was the Tongtian Peak. It was a mountain in the four-dimensional space. Because the Tongtian Peak was in the four-dimensional space, it did not follow the principle of perspective and ignored the rules of near, big, and small. No matter how far away one was, the mountain would always be the same as it was when one saw it.
In reality, Wei Huo had been to the Aerial Peak in the past 50 years. The Aerial Peak was not very tall, but because a four-dimensional barrier enveloped the Aerial Peak, there were some changes when light entered and came out.
Wei Huo stood at the mouth of the volcano and looked at the Aerial Peak. The mountain was still as tall as ever. The four-dimensional barrier protected it and allowed it to avoid all attacks. That was the gathering place of the Marginal Alliance.
That was the gathering place of the Marginalized Alliance. Although Wei Huo had been there before, he had only taken a look from afar because he could not enter. The peak of the Legendary stage could not enter the four-dimensional shield, and neither could the Phantom Body. Wei Huo was a three-dimensional creature. Without a suitable method or passage, he could not pass through the four-dimensional shield.
That was why no one knew the secret of the Aerial Peak.
Wei Huo had once guessed that there was a huge alternate world behind the four-dimensional barrier. The Aerial Peak was only the entrance to that alternate world. However, he could not enter before reaching the Mythical stage. The four-dimensional barrier was terrifying. Any matter or spirit that came into contact with it would be quietly wiped out.
Wei Huo had once experimented with a Legendary weapon. However, the moment he touched the four-dimensional barrier, the Legendary weapon was twisted and stretched by a weird force. It was as if a stick had been pulled into a piece of paper.
That was why Wei Huo would not try the Aerial Peak before he became a Mythical creature.
Now, Wei Huo was guarding the mouth of the volcano. He carefully comprehended the scene of the planet's death that he had observed during this period of time. This was a very rare scene. In fact, no one could watch a planet's death at such a close distance like him. If he comprehended this scene, he might really be able to comprehend the Rules of Death.
Wei Huo sat down cross-legged and comprehended it carefully. He no longer needed to eat at the peak of the Legendary stage. He could withstand any harsh environment. Even if a violent asteroid hit him, he could transform into a Phantom Body to avoid it.
In reality, after the Earth Core's energy was released, although the number of earthquakes had decreased, the number of asteroids hitting the Earth had increased.
The magnetic field was weak, and the atmosphere was thin. When meteorites fell, they would not die because of friction with the atmosphere. That was why many asteroids floating in the universe collided with the Earth one after another. In an instant, craters of all sizes appeared on the Earth.
Wei Huo ignored the meteorites. He carefully comprehended the scene of the planet's death. A year later, a fleet appeared on the horizon. It was a silver-white fan-shaped spaceship. The largest spaceship was comparable to a continent.
The spaceships stopped in Earth's orbit. Then, a few small silver-white fan-shaped spaceships descended from the sky. The spaceships stopped at the foot of the volcano. Then, soldiers in assault armor walked down from the spaceships.
Wei Huo had already discovered them. Upon seeing the spaceship, Wei Huo thought of the spaceship and assault armor he had found on the snow mountain. However, at the time, they had called themselves the Holy Domain civilization. This fleet should be the Atlanteans' fleet.
They were finally here. After 53 and a half years, they had arrived on this dying planet. They had single-handedly caused all of this. Now, they were here to reap the fruits of their labor.
However, Wei Huo's existence made them extremely vigilant. The aura of a peak Legendary creature was scattered in every corner of the volcano. A few Rare-ranked soldiers knelt on the ground after taking a few steps. Even though they had Heart Protection Helmets, they could not resist the aura of a peak Legendary creature. This aura was too terrifying.
At that moment, three Legendary-level Atlanteans got off the ship. They were very young, and the leader was at the late stage of the Legendary stage. They could not withstand this powerful aura, but for the sake of the giant snake's corpse and the Phantom Staff, they had to bite the bullet and go up the mountain.
However, they knew very well that the aura emitted by the peak Legendary creature meant that he would not give them a chance to enter the volcano. They did not have any temper against the peak Legendary Wei Huo. After all, their race had yet to produce a peak Legendary creature!
"Leader? Are we really going up the mountain? "a Legendary-level Atlantean asked.
