Rule of Death?
Kalan was shocked. He could not help but feel terrified when he realized that Wei Huo had possibly comprehended the Rule of Death.
What was death? What did it feel like to be dead? No one could say for sure. Death was death. Those who were reborn, revived at the brink of death, or reincarnated were not really dead.
A soul could only be considered truly dead when its lifespan reached its end. This kind of death could not be reversed. Once one died, one would really die unless one had broken through to the Mythical stage.
This was because Mythical creatures represented the Rules. Death was also a Rule, and only Rules could defeat Rules.
Chen Xuanyue and Kalan stood in front of Wei Huo. They were observing the dead person who had comprehended the Rule of Death. It was a weird feeling. He was obviously dead, but he had comprehended the Rule of Death. What was the use?
Although the Rule of Death was powerful, Wei Huo was already dead. Could the Rule of Death resurrect him?
As the two of them were thinking about that, the Rule of Death around Wei Huo started jumping. Chen Xuanyue and Kalan started retreating. The Rule of Death had become active. This was the first time they had felt the Rule of Death at close range.
The Rule of Death kept jumping and formed a contrast with the vibrant life fluctuations at the bottom of the volcano. It was like Yin and Yang. At that moment, two completely opposite things suddenly gathered and started changing.
Chen Xuanyue mumbled to herself, “What is the meaning of death?”
Chen Xuanyue had obtained the Dao Scripture, but she still had not become a Mythical creature in a year. That was why she had frozen herself again and waited for the person who could break the curse on her to appear.
Her curse was the curse of the Rule of Death. If Wei Huo had fully comprehended the Rule of Death, he might be able to save her from death. That was why she had sought him. However, what was the point of Wei Huo’s death?
At that moment, a faint voice echoed in their ears. “Everything dies. Only Death is eternal.”
The voice seemed to be ringing in their ears, but it also seemed to be echoing in their hearts. However, it seemed like they had never heard it before.
At that moment, Wei Huo slowly opened his eyes. The dead man had opened his eyes…
Kalan took a few hundred steps back. He was as terrified as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world. A dead person opening their eyes was more terrifying than anything else. He could not feel any life fluctuation coming from Wei Huo’s body, but he had still opened his eyes.
Wei Huo had slowly opened his eyes like a person who had just woken up.
His eyes were as black as ink and as deep as the night. They even had a unique suctioning force, as if they could suck other people’s souls in. They gave one the feeling that there were two black holes hidden in his eyes.
Chen Xuanyue and Kalan looked at the dead man who had opened his eyes.
At that moment, Chen Xuanyue suddenly asked, “What does death feel like?”
Wei Huo looked at Chen Xuanyue and Kalan clearly. He smiled and said, “It’s like sleeping.”
Wei Huo felt like he had just slept. Everything had changed when he’d closed his eyes and opened them again.
Wei Huo stood up slowly. He had finally moved after 13,000 years. He stood up, and all of a sudden, the world changed and the wind and clouds gathered.
There was almost no wind or clouds on Earth, as the atmosphere had been blown away by the sun. However, at that moment, the wind and clouds gathered again.
The surrounding mountain range kept trembling, and rocks collapsed. The volcano’s mouth became active again, and the frozen volcano started heating up once more. The frozen ground then started melting.
Chen Xuanyue stared at Wei Huo and said, “Is this the Rule rank?”
The aura of death coming from the entire volcano suddenly surged over. This aura of death had covered the entire volcano and killed countless living creatures over the past few thousand years. It had also grown to an extremely terrifying realm.
However, at that moment, the aura of death was completely absorbed by Wei Huo. He kept absorbing it and accommodating the aura of death. Meanwhile, his body started to undergo an irreversible transformation.
Chen Xuanyue frowned. “Is he finally going to turn from a human to God?”
Wei Huo’s body kept absorbing the aura of death, and his soul power kept cleansing his body.
After sitting for 8,000 years and being dead for 5,000 years, Wei Huo finally comprehended Death.
One’s appearance is formed through their heart, and one’s will follows the heart. The Golden Core in his body gradually shattered, and a small baby appeared.
Wei Huo’s knowledge affected his soul and consciousness. That was why he could form a Core and a Nascent Soul. This was just a change in his spirit. As long as he wanted to, he could turn his battle Qi into armor or wings or turn his Nascent Soul into a magic cyclone and use magic.
The spirit did not have a fixed image. Wei Huo’s spirit could be a human baby or a world-shaking dragon or tiger. Similarly, it could also be a horse, a sheep, a cow, or even a planet. It could be the starry sky or the universe.
However, Wei Huo did not deliberately shape his spirit. Instead, he let nature take its course. In addition to his subconscious guidance, his spirit became a Daoist’s Nascent Soul.
Moreover, as the aura of death was inhaled, the Nascent Soul grew larger. Wei Huo understood at that moment that his lifespan was already unlimited because his soul could not die. Besides, he could continuously absorb the aura of death and convert it into his own soul power. That way, his soul could also grow indefinitely.
This was the definition of a Mythical creature with an unlimited lifespan. It could be reborn indefinitely unless its soul was completely destroyed.
Wei Huo also realized that his soul power was continuously seeping in him and nourishing his body. His cells gradually turned into nothingness, and the boundary between matter and spirit became blurry. Wei Huo became incorporeal.
This was an ability unique to Mythical creatures. However, the incorporealization process was not very fast. Besides, although the incorporealization could avoid all physical attacks, it could receive energy attacks and mental attacks.
That was why the Atlanteans had wanted to kill the giant snake with the Earth Core.
At the thought of the giant snake, Wei Huo thought of the life fluctuation coming from the bottom of the volcano. If it had not been for this life fluctuation, Wei Huo might have remained silent forever. It was because of this life fluctuation and his own aura of death that the two mutually reinforcing and counteracting substances had formed a cycle. That was why Wei Huo had gone from death to life and things had gone the opposite way. That was why he had opened his eyes and come back to life.
Coincidentally, at that moment, a golden pixie flew out of the volcano with difficulty while holding an egg.
She was Little Xuanyue. Her body was golden, and she looked exactly the same as Chen Xuanyue. She was struggling to lift the egg, which was the size of a football. Her face was red, and she looked like she wanted to take credit for this. She told everyone, “Look at what I found! I found an egg that emits weak Rule Power!”
