The Haitian leader started climbing the mountain with the two mid-stage Legendary creatures. Wei Huo was a peak Legendary creature, so they had to show their respect. This was the difference in strength. Even if one was the leader of a race, one would still not be able to raise one's head in front of a peak Legendary creature, as Wei Huo could easily kill him.
The volcano was over 30 kilometers long, but it was not considered a peak for the three Legendary creatures. They were very fast and arrived halfway up the mountain in a few minutes. After arriving, they slowed down a lot.
One of the subordinates behind the leader asked, "Leader, why didn't the peak Legendary creature of the continent leave with the migrating people?"
The leader replied, "Can't you guys sense it? This peak Legendary creature is walking the highest realm of Daoism: Nirvana. He wants to comprehend the true meaning of destruction by observing the death of a planet and break through to the Mythical stage. "
One of the subordinates asked in shock, "Mythical? Is it so easy to break through to the Mythical stage? "
The leader shook his head. "If the difficulty of reaching the peak of the Legendary stage is similar to an ordinary person climbing the highest peak in the world after a lot of hardships, then the difficulty of becoming a Mythical stage is similar to letting an ordinary person reach the peak and ascend to the heavens."
The two subordinates mumbled to themselves, "Ascend to the heavens?"
The leader sighed and said, "All living beings in the world have three instincts: survival, reproduction, and becoming a God. However, becoming a God is a very difficult thing. Countless living beings have overcome all obstacles and advanced courageously. They have broken through countless difficulties and experienced countless tests, but they ultimately cannot become a God. There are countless living beings in the world, but only a few have become Gods."
One of the subordinates asked, "Leader, is it really that difficult to become a God? At the end of the day, it's just a Legendary realm. Is there anything different about the Mythical stage? "
The leader said, "Ye Lan, you're right. Besides, I believe that there must be a new realm above the Mythical stage. It's just that we don't know about it. However, since ancient times, if one wants to become a Mythical stage, they can't escape luck, talent, and hard work. One can't become a God without any of these three."
The Haitian called Ye Lan by the leader said, "The term God is actually relative. After all, to ordinary living beings, we are equivalent to Gods. To ants, humans are equivalent to Gods."
The leader smiled. "Ye Lan, we aren't even at the Mythical stage, yet we're guessing the Mythical stage. It's as ridiculous as ants guessing humans. Have you read the book 'The Ant Race'? In the eyes of ants, humans are just thick pillars of flesh, and that's just one of our thumbs. Ants think that humans are a family of five, but that's just our five fingers. Do you understand? This is the ant's speculation about humans, and it's as ridiculous as our speculation about God! "
Ye Lan fell silent. The unreachable Myth Realm terrified him. After a long time, he said, "The Legendary Realm is just a human who stands at a higher level."
The clan leader sighed. "Yes, according to the legends, he is still a human, not a god."
The Patriarch's words seemed to imply that Wei Huo was also a Legendary creature and there was no need to worry too much.
The three of them arrived at the top of the volcano and saw Wei Huo, who was sitting cross-legged. Wei Huo did not say anything, but his attitude was obvious, as he was blocking the path of the three of them into the volcano.
The patriarch cupped his hands and said, "Legendary peak of the land, can you let us pass?"
Wei Huo opened his eyes. The golden light in his eyes had faded, and his eyes had become reserved. In the face of the Patriarch's request, he only said two words, "Please go back."
They were there to retrieve the giant snake's corpse and the level-six Divine Artifact, the Phantom Staff. Wei Huo could not let them do as they wished. Firstly, he wanted to ensure that the giant snake could rest in peace. Secondly, he wanted to make sure that the group of culprits who had destroyed Earth did not exist.
It was just like how one would not treat someone who burned one's house nicely. The only difference was that Wei Huo did not want to attack now. Otherwise, the Patriarch and the other two would have died.
At that moment, Wei Huo only wanted to observe. After 50 years, he had gotten used to observing. However, if the other party really attacked, he would not mind fighting back.
The Atlantean leader was in a dilemma. He had thought of this possibility before coming, but he had still held onto a glimmer of hope. He had naively thought that borrowing such a fleet would put pressure on the other party. However, he had underestimated Wei Huo.
The Patriarch said, "We come from the same source. We are of the same race."
Wei Huo said, "That's why I didn't attack. You should have retreated."
The Patriarch's expression turned ugly. He suddenly turned his head and shouted, "Ye Lan, Ye Hong, let's go!"
Ye Lan hurriedly asked, "Patriarch, are we leaving just like that? Perhaps we can persuade him again. "
The Patriarch said, "There's no need. I'll ask for advice when I break through to the peak of the Legendary stage!"
Wei Huo was unmoved. He closed his eyes and continued comprehending the Rules of Death.
The Patriarch left the mountain angrily. He had been talented since he was young and had been doted on by everyone. Besides, he had been very hardworking. When he was young, he had thought that he could become the first Mythical creature in his race. However, as his cultivation level had deepened and time had passed, he had thought that it would be good if he could reach the peak of the Legendary stage.
Now that his cultivation level had stagnated, he had lowered himself to ask Wei Huo for help. However, after Wei Huo rejected him, his arrogance returned.
If he can break through to the peak of the Legendary stage, why can't I break through?
The Patriarch said arrogantly, "Let's go. When I break through to the peak of the Legendary stage, I'll come and ask for advice. Let's see if he'll give in then."
The Patriarch did not use the huge fleet. He did not think that it was worth it. The destructive power of a peak Legendary creature was too strong. He could suppress the Atlantean soldiers with his aura alone. If he wanted to take down Wei Huo, his fleet would probably suffer heavy losses.
Instead of that, he might as well break through to the peak of the Legendary stage first and fight Wei Huo. He would then speak with his strength.
The Atlantean Patriarch left, and so did the fleet. Wei Huo calmed down again. Although meteorites fell from time to time, they did not affect him.
However, as time passed, the Patriarch did not break through to the peak of the Legendary stage. In order to replenish their resources, the fleet started sending mining vehicles to the surface of Earth to mine and plant mining trees.
As a large amount of material in the Earth's core had been ejected with magma, there were rich minerals near the volcano. Soul Refining Water was everywhere. Wei Huo did not need these things, but they were treasures to the Atlanteans.
Due to the arrival of a large number of miners, small cities had been built around the volcano. Like the land people, the Atlanteans liked shiny things, so they kept the gold.
