Chapter 367 Can one become a god in this world?
The man who turned around was handsome, with neat short hair, which made him look very energetic.
He has deep eyes and thick eyebrows. When he is serious, his eyes are like knives dipped in ice, and they are sharp every time he opens and closes them.
Even if I laughed.
It's also extremely difficult to get close to.
He liked to wear black, and his aura was extremely cold and stern. When he looked at people, he stared straight at them, and his dark eyes were like the sky collapsing and the earth sinking, making people dare not look directly at him and lower their heads.
Even the most rebellious Xu Qingqiang had to look away for a while before looking over again.
Only Mu Zhong, as Wei Huan's bedmate, was not only accustomed to this kind of atmosphere, but also loved this aura of Wei Huan the most. Unlike others who avoided him, he was the first to greet Wei Huan with strong emotions.
"Are you okay?" He first expressed concern for Wei Huan's health. He looked him over from head to toe before sighing with relief and saying, "Is today the time you mentioned?"
Wei Huan took Mu Zhong's hand, and together they looked at the reunited sky. He said regretfully, "It's a pity it's not enough. I've accumulated strength for two full years, but it's still not enough to cut through the chains."
Mu Zhong couldn't see. In his eyes, the sky was the sky and the clouds were the clouds.
In Wei Huan's eyes, there was always a huge chain across the sky, locking him firmly in this world. Even though he had used grinding and hammering over the years, he could not break it.
Three years ago, after discovering that there was finally a crack in the chain, he decided to gather his strength and break through in one fell swoop.
However, I tried but failed.
"Almost there," Mu Zhong said, "This world is locked by the power of death. Other elements have difficulty affecting it, which is why it is so desolate. Look at your feet, the power of life is gathering here, filling this valley with flowers."
Wei Huan said, "As long as we cannot truly break the great shackles of heaven and earth, even the most powerful life force will be like a rootless duckweed and will soon be devoured by the power of death."
"At least it has existed before. As long as it has existed, it means the method is effective. We just need to wait for the next time, and we will definitely succeed."
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingqiang said, "How can the laws be so easy to cultivate? I'm satisfied with even a small improvement after a month or two of seclusion. The last time I met Lao Chui and Lao Xue, they both said that practicing the laws is difficult. We've spent 14 years, and our control over the laws has only increased by a hundred or two. Compared to when we first began to comprehend them, it's a far cry from what we achieved."
Jacques also said, "I came to enlightenment late, thanks to the fragments of the divine nature of the space system. My power of law control is only 130 points so far. Every step is extremely difficult. I can't feel the bottlenecks that you feel.
I only know the power of Boss's attack, and I may never be able to reach it."
After listening to this, Wei Huan looked at Dou Lin.
Among all the people here, the only one who can match him in cultivation progress is Dou Lin, the chosen one.
"Dou Lin, the last time I saw you, I heard you say you had reached a bottleneck in your cultivation. Have you had any insights recently?"
Dou Lin, who was in his prime, shook his head, thought for a moment, and said, "I have a suspicion, but I don't know whether I should say it."
Wei Huan nodded and motioned him to speak.
Dou Lin said: "Can one really become a god in this world?"
Wei Huan raised his eyebrows and remained silent for a long time.
Is it really possible to become a god in this world?
In fact, this has also been his recent doubt. After 14 years of hard training, he has reached the level where he can touch the sky with his hands. But no matter what he does, he still cannot break the shackles of heaven and earth. In addition, the so-called "godhood" that must be cultivated to become a god has not been seen until now. It makes people wonder, is it because the world level is too low, so this world cannot become a god?
People always find various excuses for their failures.
Wei Huan turned his eyes and his gaze became firm: "Yes, don't waver."
This was said to Dou Lin, and also to himself.
Dou Lin trusted Wei Huan the most, and after receiving his answer, he immediately became resolute.
"I understand, Brother Wei Huan. I will never waver. I will definitely catch up with everyone and achieve godhood!"
Wei Huan nodded, took another look at the shady green in the valley, and said, "Let's go back."
Mu Zhong pulled him back and said, "This is a rare opportunity. I want to try it."
"What?"
"Use the life force here to practice."
Wei Huan was puzzled. The life force was everywhere. The life force in the chariot and the sixth-level world was very rich. What would he get here?
Mu Zhong said, "If I can find a way to protect this valley, or even gather the power of life, using it as the birthplace of life and allowing it to grow more life, then my path will be complete when I succeed."
Wei Huan hesitated: "You want to leave the chariot?"
Mu Zhong smiled: "That's not the case. You can stay with me. There are so many level eight tanks now. Letting them lead their own teams to open treasure chests is also a form of training."
Wei Huan's brows relaxed: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
In the car, the team members who were waiting for the boss to lead the team to open the ruins were shocked!
The bosses are actually settling down in the valley!? All the crew members on duty are reporting to their captain's tank, and only after returning from their mission can they rest and train in the boss's tank?
With a cry of "wow", he burst into tears.
Not only is there no more Tomb of the Gods adventure, but even the chariot benefits have been halved. There are no more upgrades to the Tree of Nature and the Elemental Room, and there are no more delicious attribute meals from Chef Liu. Life is unbearable!
Wei Huan was quite happy. Anyone who had been running around in the world for nearly ten years would also get bored and want to find a place to settle down.
This has nothing to do with the living environment. It is simply the deep-rooted attachment of the Daxia people to the "land". After riding in a chariot for so many years, people always have a sense of wandering, and occasionally they want to live a down-to-earth life for a while.
Wei Huan parked the chariot in the middle of the valley and only sent the undead out to guard, and then accompanied Mu Zhong to build a "home".
The chariot does have everything, but Mu Zhong plans to build an outdoor training area here, mainly to verify his ideas.
Perhaps it was because Wei Huan also had a career as a driver, he was good at doing things with his hands, and simple meditation and practice was difficult for him.
So many years have passed since Wei Huan helped Mu Zhong find the fragment of the divine nature that suits him, but he has been wandering outside the "door" of the law, unable to step in.
Perhaps it’s because the practice method is wrong.
Therefore, Mu Zhong decided to conduct actual experiments here to verify his thoughts and try to see if he could achieve enlightenment. Wei Huan naturally supported him very much.
He left the chariot, and even though he had the help of the undead, he would personally accompany Mu Zhong to move things, divide the grass into sections, and then pave paths.
Mu Zhong placed the natural totems he had accumulated over the years in the valley according to his ideas, and gradually formed a huge flower garden.
The couple enjoyed themselves happily for quite a while, until they noticed three people peeking in front of the chariot.
Wei Huan saw it and looked at Mu Zhong in confusion.
Mu Zhong waved directly, called out the three people's names and said, "Come here, what can I do for you?"
The people who came were the squadron leaders of the duty team, each of whom was in charge of more than 300 people. They were all main combat personnel. They would take turns to participate in the battle with the treasure chest monsters on weekdays, and would also perform escort patrol missions while the tank was driving.
Previously, only Wei Huan’s chariot was level eight, but Wei Huan’s chariot parts were fully upgraded more than ten years ago, but he was still unable to open the full map of the level nine chariot.
Obviously, this map does not exist in the eighth-level world. If you want to get the last map, you may have to go to the battlefield of all races.
Therefore, as time went on, there were more and more level eight chariots, and escort vehicles that could keep up with Wei Huan's chariots began to appear beside him.
In short, although these three captains do not hold high positions, they are also well-known figures on the bus, and they are all very strong and capable of standing on their own.
"What's the matter?" Wei Huan asked in a calm tone.
The three captains were extremely embarrassed. They looked at each other, and each of them gestured to the other to speak first without saying anything.
Wei Huan has been in seclusion for too long and rarely appears in public. It is inevitable that he is deified and feels distant.
Mu Zhong smiled and said, "Tell me, there must be something wrong."
Finally, a squadron leader said nervously, "Boss, Boss Mu, our tank warehouse is full of high-level treasure puzzles."
The warehouse is a virtual space. Even if it is full, there are still countless virtual spaces. Of course, this is not meant literally.
Mu Zhong smiled upon hearing this and nudged Wei Huan with his elbow: "You finally came out of seclusion, everyone is waiting for you to open the God's Tomb."
Wei Huan frowned, not really wanting to go, but as Mu Zhong looked at him, Wei Huan finally nodded, "Okay."
The three squadron leaders' eyes suddenly lit up and they trembled with excitement.
"Let's go back and prepare!" they shouted in unison.
Watching the three people leave, Wei Huan said to Mu Zhong: "Even if you have fragments of the divine nature, it will be difficult to enter the Tao." He himself is an example.
"I know." Mu Zhong pointed at himself, "But there is always hope." After saying this, Mu Zhong remembered something and said, "Do you know some of the rumors about Blue Star now?"
"What?" Wei Huan was really oblivious to what was happening outside and knew nothing.
Mu Zhong wanted to say something, but looking at the three squadron leaders who had already reached the entrance of the chariot, he said, "We can discuss this matter when we get back."
"Put it this way." Wei Huan raised his hand and tapped his earring, connecting himself to Mu Zhong.
"Oh, sure, sure." Mu Zhong pushed Wei Huan and said, "Go ahead. Dou Lin will stay with others and wait for you to come back."
Wei Huan nodded, took two steps and turned back, raised his hand and pinched the back of Mu Zhong's head, forcibly lifted his head up, pressed it down hard, and kissed the mouth that was always telling him to leave.
Mu Zhong felt his ears instantly become hot when he was suddenly kissed. There were tens of thousands of people in the chariot next to him, and he didn't know how many people were watching on the balcony now.
However, Mu Zhong was very sincere in his feelings, and he felt very sorry that they had not seen each other for such a long time and had to separate again after just meeting. His ears flushed, and he put his arms around Wei Huan's neck and took the initiative to deepen the kiss.
"I'll set up a portal here, wait for me to come back." Wei Huan was still reluctant to kiss her, but unfortunately now was not the right time, so he could only endure it. He said this before leaving.
Mu Zhong pursed his rosy lips and smiled: "Okay."
Wei Huan's chariot left, and so did the undead he had stationed outside.
But soon, a protective shield rose in the valley. It was Dou Lin's level eight chariot, and the protective shield of his chariot was also at the maximum level.
Also to be on the safe side, Dou Lin expanded his own domain and laid down a circle of "star field" within the protective shield.
In his territory, if someone trespasses without permission, it may seem like just one step away, but in reality, they may need to cross an entire universe and still may not be able to reach their destination.
Dou Lin is better at defending than attacking.
After arranging these, Dou Lin stayed by Mu Zhong's side. Even though he was almost 30 years old, he was still well-behaved in front of Mu Zhong.
He was rescued by Brother Wei Huan and grew up with them. In his heart, Brother Wei Huan, Brother Mu Zhong, Brother Chengzhier and Brother Qiang are his relatives and brothers.
Even... deep down in my heart, I just feel that if I had a mother, she would be someone like Brother Mu Zhong.
Dou Lin, the new generation's national idol, is now extremely prestigious and active on Blue Star. His popularity even surpasses Wei Huan, who has been hiding his identity for many years. He is squatting on the ground digging mud and laying stone slabs with his hands. He does not have Wei Huan's skills, so he uses his hands, getting dirty but feeling happy.
Looking up, he could see Brother Mu Chong.
In order to let him join the conversation, Brother Mu Zhong turned on his private projection screen, so he could also see Brother Wei Huan's face that was always floating on Brother Mu Zhong's shoulder.
The two of them talked, and neither hid anything from him. Their conversation was like a casual chat, showing the warmth of a family.
Mu Zhong said, "...There's a popular saying on Blue Star right now that there are twelve palaces in the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, and 12 is the limit. If all 12 palaces are not empty, there will be no newcomers.
This statement is so poisonous that it seems like a legend, but every word points to the former's tyranny.
I am now only one step away from achieving my domain, and I want to prove the ridiculousness of this legend with my own achievements."
Wei Huan frowned: "Have you checked?"
"Of course I've checked, but no matter how hard I try, all the rumors are just folk rumours. It seems the situation is too stable, causing everyone to forget the hardships of the past, and even more so, forget you great contributors. Without you, how could Blue Star have the current stability and prosperity?
The Civilization War lasted only 12 years in total. It took you five years to take over the Dark Beast World, but peace has lasted for nearly 20 years.
Once the wound heals, the pain is forgotten."
Wei Huan said, "Happiness makes people nostalgic. If the memories are full of pain, people will selectively forget them."
"Even though that's what we say, we shouldn't forget who protected this happiness. That's why I've been waiting for you to come out of confinement. How about we go back to Blue Star, publicize what needs to be done, remind everyone who needs to be reminded, and everyone's memory will naturally return."
Wei Huan's expression was already painful: "Forget it, let's wait until you awaken and enter the Dao. The truth is the most effective way to dispel rumors."
"Oh no, you don't even want to put in any effort, just waiting for me?"
"I've put in a lot of effort, but please don't put on a show."
"What a show, hey you!?"
"Ah, we're here. We need to open the ruins, so the signal will be affected. Let's talk later."
“Tsk!”
Before Mu Zhong could finish his words, Wei Huan's screen had already entered idle mode, and Mu Zhong was so angry that he almost dropped the slate in his hand.
Dou Lin was laughing beside him, working with his head covered and laughing at the same time.
Mu Zhong looked at him and smiled, then lowered his head to continue the work in his hands.
After about half an hour, Wei Huan's screen projection was no longer in idle mode. He spoke with regret, "It's an Abyssal God's Tomb, but unfortunately it's empty. The energy of the Godhead fragments has long dissipated over time."
Mu Zhong's previous anger was gone when he spoke again. He smiled and said, "There's a diamond-level ruin waiting for you. Go and open it even if you have to take a detour."
"good."
Ruins are not relics, and you are not entering another space, but a place that seems to be completely integrated with this world. It may be an underground palace, a nest of some creatures, or the ruins of a building. There will be wandering monsters and treasure chests that match the level when you enter, so the signal will not be interrupted.
Wei Huan sent out the undead army to sweep across directly, while he was still chatting with Mu Zhong.
Dou Lin is not unable to open the diamond-level ruins, but he needs to give his all, have others to cooperate, and there will be a risk of casualties.
But Brother Wei Huan can be so relaxed. Dou Lin, who hasn't seen Brother Wei Huan take action for some time, has little stars in his eyes. He admires Brother Wei Huan from the bottom of his heart!
For a long time afterwards, Wei Huan traveled around the world, visiting ruins one after another, searching for divine powers with residual energy, which were resources many times more advanced than diamond-level treasure chests.
But he would come back before dark every day, sometimes he would come back alone using the portal that came with his robe, and sometimes he would come back in a chariot.
Over the years, the pioneering army has dropped a large number of boundary gates in this world, making it convenient and fast to go anywhere, and it is very easy to travel back and forth on the same day.
Wei Huan, who just wanted to take a break and adjust himself before starting again, was very satisfied with his current life.
Except for the fact that Mu Zhong always asks him to go back to Blue Star to "show off", everything else is fine.
A week passed like this in the blink of an eye. Wei Huan also opened a divine nature that contained a small amount of gold power. He asked someone to send it to Brother Hammer, but he didn't get anything else.
Judging from the tombs of gods they opened, there are quite a few gods. There are more than a hundred tombs of gods opened by Wei Huan alone. It always gives people the feeling that gods are not valuable.
But Wei Huan knew very well that 90% of the tombs he opened were empty. The tomb owner might have been very powerful, but once he died, as time passed, his divinity that contained his Tao and all his energy would dissipate between heaven and earth. Even gods could not escape death.
In addition, he has opened up divine natures of the same elements in different tombs of gods, which shows that the path of gods is not unique, but the path is narrow and will be replaced.
However, no matter how many gods there are, they are very limited. After all, they are gods. It may not be possible to give birth to one in a hundred civilizations, let alone a dead god. There must be more living gods.
Therefore, even if Wei Huan took his time and took his own risks, only the last complete treasure map he had accumulated over the years would remain.
As the treasure fragments were pieced together at the correct coordinates, a gate to the divine tomb standing between heaven and earth slowly appeared in the brilliant light.
The moment he saw the gate, Wei Huan's face showed an expression of surprise and joy.
This is an extremely rare gate. Although the lower half of the gate has decayed and is covered with gravel, a hint of green can be seen in the upper half, as well as a cloud carving floating on the top of the gate like clouds in the sky.
He had seen a similar door once four years ago. After entering it, he obtained the fragments of the Godhead of the Nature Element: Four Seasons, and finally Mu Zhong obtained the fragments of the Godhead that matched himself.
There are three paths that a shaman can take: one is the "Law of Life", one is the "Law of the Four Seasons", and the other is the "Law of Time".
The law of life is mainly reflected in treatment.
The law of time is more like a spiritual law, which can invite ancient ancestors or even gods to come and use their power to achieve various special means.
Wei Huan initially thought that Mu Zhong would need a godhood that was more time-oriented, but unexpectedly, the Law of the Four Seasons was the one that suited him.
The Law of Four Seasons has the effects of creation and resurrection, and also has a little shadow of reincarnation. This sense of overlap made Wei Huan think for a time that Mu Zhong was practicing a law that he was not good at in order to cooperate with his abilities. After all, "reincarnation" and "reincarnation" are so similar that there must be some subtle coordination.
But Mu Zhong firmly denied it.
Mu Zhong said, "If, as you infer, becoming a master means creating the world, then the direction of creation itself is a very important law. In addition, my second profession, pilot, is also a creative profession.
I can confirm that “creation” is my path.”
Now, Wei Huan once again saw the gate of the Law of Four Seasons, and prayed in his heart that he could find better fragments of the divine nature and bring them back as a gift to Mu Zhong.
"Set off."
He gave the order, and the chariot slowly drove into the open gate, and then entered a space full of lightning and thunder.
Thunderstorms, fire, spring, summer, autumn, winter, cold, and heat, in this world called "tomb" that is clearly dead, there is a rare energy that stirs up trouble in the world and launches fierce attacks on invaders.
This is an extremely active tomb, and it is very likely that the fragments of the divine nature retain energy.
Wei Huan ordered the chariot to move forward fearlessly. The protective shield of the chariot was enough to withstand most of the natural attacks. Besides, many of the crew members were already driving level eight vehicles, which was enough to easily support a cycle in such a situation.
Everything went smoothly. Wei Huan easily defeated the remaining power of the gods in this broken world, and obtained a nearly complete and energy-rich emerald green divine power at the core.
The quality of this godhood is even higher than the godhood of death that Wei Huan received as a reward from the system.
Holding the fragment of the divine nature in his hand, Wei Huan could even feel the discomfort brought about by the conflict of laws. His skin felt tingling when it was close to the fragment of the divine nature, but Wei Huan played with the fragment of the divine nature in his hand with a happy expression before carefully putting it back into the space.
"Is this the last one?" Wei Huan asked the captain who was on the mission with him.
The captains answered yes, some with joy, some with regret. They didn't know when they would explore the God's Tomb with the boss again, and they hadn't been able to find any divine power they could use, so they were inevitably reluctant to let it go.
Wei Huan knew that working with everyone these days reminded him of the passion they had when they first took risks together.
However, the treasure fragments of the God's Tomb are extremely difficult to accumulate. The amount accumulated in one or two years is usually enough for him to slowly open it for about a week.
This is under the premise that he can plow the land and open the treasure chest, otherwise changing to other tanks will only be slower.
It will be quite some time before I have such an experience again.
Wei Huan ordered the chariot to pass through the gate and drive forward for a while, and then they arrived at the valley.
In just one week, this place has changed a lot.
In this desolate and dead world, this touch of emerald green and vitality is as precious as a gem.
