Chapter 329: Separation
Wei Huo and the others had already obtained the technology of the Atlanteans, so it was not difficult for them to build a spacecraft. However, the more technology there was, the better. No one would find technological knowledge excessive.
That was why they did not want to let go of the few spaceships that had landed in the Southern Continent. However, the problem now was that they had to quickly bring back the technology they had obtained from the underwater world and let the scientists digest it.
There was a limit to a person’s strength. If one wanted to migrate, one had to share this knowledge and unite all humans.
That was why they had to split up. At that moment, Wei Huo was at a critical stage. His Nirvana Domain had not improved in a long time. He had only become a late-stage Legendary creature because he had been falling back on his past achievements.
His realm had reached the late stage of the Legendary stage, but his spirit had been unable to keep up. Now that his spirit had caught up, his realm had also reached its limit. Although he was one step away from the peak, it was difficult for him to advance. That was why Wei Huo needed to go into seclusion.
Wei Huo said, “Go back. Let me head to the Southern Continent alone. I’ll think of something. I’ll take down these spaceships!”
Wei Huo had the feeling that he had reached the end. It was as if he was destined to reach the late stage of the Legendary stage. It was a weird feeling. The momentum at the beginning had been strong, and he had advanced step by step. However, after the last major breakthrough, the momentum had stopped. It was as if he had reached his limit.
Everyone was stunned. Lu Qiqi was the first to react. She knew that Wei Huo was walking the path of nirvanic extermination. Wei Huo could only walk this path alone. Similarly, each of them had their own path to walk. They could have a short reunion, but they still had to separate in the end.
That was why Lu Qiqi said, “I understand. Let’s go back and prepare to move. You… be careful.”
Lu Qiqi was a sensible person. Anything she said at a time like this would be meaningless. Everyone had lived for hundreds of years, and some people had even lived for thousands of years. They could not say such childish words anymore. Separating was a normal thing to do.
Wei Huo nodded. His thoughts had been conveyed to everyone, and everyone nodded. They all understood that the Epic path, the Legendary path, and even the Mythical path were lonely.
After convincing them, Wei Huo told Modin, “Take the children and head to the Northern Continent.”
Modin was silent. He looked at the huge electric tower. The familiar faces he used to know had been thrown in this tower. Not even their bones were left. Even their souls had disappeared.
Besides, he knew that Earth could only last for another 55 years. He was the only adult left in the estate. He had to lead the children and help them survive.
The golden armor suddenly said, “I’m curious. How did you survive outside the protective shield?”
It was only then that Modin realized what was going on. He said, “There were a few pieces of metal left. They belonged to the Atlanteans, but they were very powerful. I built a small square with those metal pieces. Those pieces had the ability to repair themselves. After I pieced them together, the edge of the metal automatically fused. I hid in the room with the metal pieces. The metal pieces seemed to absorb heat automatically. I did not feel hot at all when I was inside, but I nearly suffocated to death. Fortunately, the room eventually collapsed. For some reason, it turned into metal scraps.”
Modin’s body was covered in wounds and blood. It was obvious what he had experienced. However, he had survived in the end and walked there.
His willpower was very firm. He could still stand tall even after experiencing these changes. It was evident that he was a very good warrior. He might even have the potential to enter the Epic stage.
At the thought of his potential, Wei Huo thought of his own realm. He felt that he had completely stimulated his potential. His realm could no longer be improved. The Dao Scripture, which could allow one to cultivate to the Mythical stage, could not help him either.
This was the upper limit of his talent, which was an unsolvable problem. Hard work could indeed allow one to surpass some geniuses, but after reaching one’s limits, no matter how hard one worked, it would be useless.
In the end, only a hardworking genius could go far.
Wei Huo sighed. I’m just an ordinary person!
The Prime Minister Black Dragon turned into the Black Dragon and dragged Lu Qiqi, the golden armor, Xiao Liang, Modin, and the children with him. At the same time, Wei Huo released all his pets and handed all his cards to Lu Qiqi. He even handed over his Mythical weapon, the lightning bolt.
Wei Huo handed over all his possessions.
The golden armor asked, “Brother Huo, why do I feel like something is wrong with you? Why did you hand over everything? What if you encounter a strong enemy?”
Lu Qiqi just silently put away everything Wei Huo had handed over. She was even quieter than Wei Huo. She had always been doing her own thing silently. No one could see through her, but she and Wei Huo had a tacit understanding.
Only she understood what Wei Huo wanted to do.
Wei Huo wanted to abandon all worldly possessions and liberate himself. He wanted to liberate his thoughts, body, and everything else. He wanted to comprehend the Nirvana Intent and improve himself.
Xiao Liang sighed. “This has always been the case for Dao seekers since ancient times. Back then, I gave up everything and rode off into the sunset to comprehend the final Great Dao. Only by giving up all my fame and wealth and putting down my persistent worries did I completely calm my heart.”
Wei Huo smiled and said, “Do as you please. It’s natural.”
Everyone was stunned when they heard Wei Huo’s words. They felt that Wei Huo was a little different now. They believed that Wei Huo had really let go of the vicissitudes of thousands of years in the Illusion Realm. The feeling of being alone for hundreds of years had also disappeared. The aura of nirvanic extermination that had been lingering around him had vanished too.
It was as if Wei Huo had turned back into the young man next door. After he let go of everything, his temperament became pure and natural and his smile became even more natural.
In the past, Wei Huo used to not like smiling or speaking. It was as if hundreds of years of loneliness had made him lose the ability to speak. However, Wei Huo currently seemed to have crossed infinite time and returned to his original self.
Everyone was amazed by this, as they could not do it. As they grew older and gained more experiences, their temperament would gradually change, just like Lu Qiqi, who no longer had the innocence and brilliance of a lively girl. She was now like a high and mighty goddess without any human emotions.
Wei Huo told them, “I’ll head to the Southern Continent, then to the Eastern Road, the Central Continent, and finally the Northern Continent. Let’s meet again in 55 years.”
