Chapter 398 Preparing to Leave
Wei Huan smiled but said nothing.
It is indeed still early for him to create a real world, let alone become one of the Three Thousand Universes like the Challenge World, which is even further away.
But when the ancient god body was first formed, it was equivalent to having a brand new chaotic world, which was not affected by the rules of the challenged world, nor by the rules of any other world.
The rules of this world will be determined according to his will.
Let humans become immortals, or let Mu Zhong become a god on the spot, as long as he is willing to consume his divine power, all of these can come true.
Doing so is like being blinded by one's own shortcomings. He is only dominating in his own little world and cannot face the real storms. Wei Huan will not do this.
Sooner or later, Mu Zhong will stand by his side again, so he must have the ability to deal with the real world, so he also needs to follow the rules of the outside world.
The formulation of the world's rules is very complicated, and Wei Huan has no idea for the time being until the Heart of Steel jumps out.
That’s right, the Heart of Iron is the intelligence with the highest authority under the “main consciousness” that challenges the world.
Since we don’t know how to create a “main consciousness” right now, why not kidnap a “secondary main consciousness” to work for free?
Only by standing on the shoulders of giants can we see higher and farther.
Iron Heart's newly backed-up body was swallowed by Wei Huan. As soon as he entered this world, he knew what he was going to do.
Wei Huan let it see the sleeping Mu Zhong first, and then took it to work without stopping.
Of course, the new world cannot operate completely according to the rules of the challenge world. Besides, the "challenge world" is a purposeful arrangement made by high-dimensional life after it takes control of the world. The current level of Wei Huan's world is far from reaching that level.
Therefore, it is best for the primary world to operate according to the rules that Wei Huan is most familiar with, that is, the rules of Blue Star.
After informing Iron Heart of his request, Iron Heart spun around excitedly: "Am I going to be upgraded to become the main consciousness? You actually let me plan the rules of this new world? Woo woo woo~ You are such a good master~~"
"Go ahead." Wei Huan smiled.
He thought he had kidnapped an innocent child laborer and made him work 360 days a year without a break, but in return he received the child's sincere gratitude.
This is the best outcome, and win-win and double benefits can last long.
The mecha man turned into a flash of lightning and disappeared in the world. Wei Huan felt that the lightning was spreading like a spider web.
Gradually, a small blue ball appeared in the middle of the chaos. There was only sea water on the ball, but under the calculation of the Iron Heart, the basketball underwent a huge shock, and a piece of land rose from the bottom of the sea.
The land was bare with no plants, only moist and fertile soil. The sea water was clear, and in the waves, a group of single-celled organisms were born.
The world is evolving, just like the blue planet, everything started from the beginning.
Wei Huan did not interfere with the rules that Iron Heart set for the world, but simply set up a restricted area on that continent.
He projected his purest consciousness, without a trace of death. It was just the simplest him, or the projection of his ancient god body, that came into this world.
He walked in from the very edge. Lush green grass grew where he walked, and small flowers bloomed behind him. A sapling grew out from under the tree, and in the blink of an eye it grew into a big tree, with peach blossoms flying all over the tree.
A big yellow dog jumped out from behind a tree and pounced on the napping white cat in front of it. The white cat meowed and climbed up the tree in a few seconds.
Where the white cat was sleeping soundly, a manor appeared out of thin air, with gardens in front and back, fertile land and bright sunshine.
The small building on the second floor is very simple, and the size is just right for two people to live in. Mu Zhong is now sleeping soundly on the bed on the second floor.
Behind the manor, large fields of peach blossoms bloomed, forming a continuous patch and swaying in the wind.
This is what is called saying what you say and doing what you say.
Because this is a world created by Wei Huan, he can ignore any rules that the world should have and create anything here as long as he wants.
But even Wei Huan only chose a small area and created this paradise.
When Wei Huan walked to the gate of the villa, the door was opened from the inside, and a little boy about 10 years old with freckles on his face appeared in front of Wei Huan.
"Master, Master Mu Zhong is about to wake up."
This is the clone of Iron Heart. After entering this world and integrating into it to become the "main consciousness", it split a "secondary consciousness" and sent it here, binding with Mu Chong according to Wei Huan's order.
This "secondary consciousness" knows many of the rules of the world, but is shielded from the truth about its origins outside of it, and is unaware that it is a separate consciousness from the "main consciousness." It has the same lively and lovable personality as Ironheart.
Wei Huan appeared at the door on the second floor and saw Mu Zhong's eyelashes trembling as he slowly woke up.
Sunlight slanted in through the window lattice, and golden dust flowed in the quiet space. Mu Zhong's face was illuminated brightly, and he could clearly see the thin layer of fine hairs on Mu Zhong's face.
Wei Huan stood by the bed, almost holding his breath, staring at Mu Zhong until he woke up completely.
"Did I faint?" Mu Zhong held his forehead and stood up embarrassedly. When he remembered how he fainted, his ears became hot. "I didn't expect that I would be so useless now."
Wei Huan sat on the edge of the bed, holding Mu Zhong's forehead and pressing their foreheads together.
Mu Zhong subconsciously dodged for a moment: "I just woke up."
Wei Huan said, "There's not enough time, but I don't know how to explain it. Just watch it."
"What?"
Mu Zhong put his forehead against Wei Huan's head again in confusion, and this time his consciousness rolled towards him without any desire. In just a moment, everything that happened during this period, everything Wei Huan thought and worried about, was displayed in front of Mu Zhong's eyes like an unfolding scroll, without any obstruction.
Wei Huan lifted his forehead and looked deeply at Mu Zhong and said, "Do you understand?"
Mu nodded: "I understand."
Just before Wei Huan was about to speak, Mu Zhong grabbed Wei Huan's arm, looked at him deeply and said, "Even if you don't tell me, I will find a way to go with you. I didn't expect you to give me a choice? What if I choose to stay? Can you really let go?"
Wei Huan almost immediately shook his head and said with certainty, "No."
Mu Zhong smiled: "You, you just care about me too much. I just want to say that if I stay, it must be because I have no choice. As long as I have a choice, I will be with you forever."
He hugged Wei Huan tightly and whispered in his ear: "Mom has Dad by her side, and Xixi will have her lover and children sooner or later. We have each other."
"Well, we have each other." Wei Huan hugged Mu Zhong tightly, feeling soft and warm in his heart. In fact, all his hesitations were because he cared too much about the other person. He always wanted to give the best to the other person, but he didn't want to go against his true feelings, so he was entangled and couldn't act decisively.
Fortunately, as long as they are together and talk openly like this, nothing can stump them.
"Oh, come to think of it, you're going to keep me here, like a beautiful woman in a golden house?" Just as he was feeling moved, Mu Zhong pushed Wei Huan away and said sternly, "Although I will definitely go with you, you can't keep me here forever."
Wei Huan nodded: "If you had carefully read my memory, you wouldn't ask that."
"I've seen it, and I know what you're thinking. But I still want to emphasize again that the evolution of this world is very important. Even if it doesn't exceed the rules of the outside world, it should at least be the same. This way, those who leave here in the future will have the fairest starting point."
"Different levels correspond to different world levels. My ancient divine body has just been cultivated. The level of this world is too low, so I can only evolve into the lowest level soulless planet. As the initial star, a higher level..."
Wei Huan suddenly paused here and looked at Mu Zhong, who suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Mu Zhong sat up and walked to the window. He pulled Wei Huan's hand, and the next second this fairyland-like world faded away, revealing the real world outside.
Everything is still so primitive. The violent wind blows the waves against the rocks. The mountains that have not been tempered by time are bare, and rocks are constantly falling down.
Lifeless yet full of vitality.
In the deep sea, deep in the soil, in the strong wind, the seeds of life are brewing, waiting for the moment of birth.
"So you see, could our Blue Planet be the original planet?" Mu Zhong said with shining eyes, "Without spiritual energy, and with a short life span, we are the origin of this most primitive planet."
Wei Huan closed his eyes and felt it carefully: "Yes, this is the most primitive planet, but it contains the most fundamental origin. It looks ordinary, but it has endless potential."
Mu nodded: "That makes sense. Why have so many powerful people come out of our Blue Star?"
Wei Huan seemed to be thinking: "It's a pity that I can't go back now."
Mu Zhong was very optimistic: "As long as we get rid of the challenge world, we can take Blue Star over. Then we will no longer be threatened by anything and will no longer have to struggle for survival. Then you can study it carefully."
Wei Huan nodded. Although he didn't know how long it would take to reach this point and what to do correctly at that time, this was indeed his goal.
Wei Huan stayed with Mu Zhong in the inner world for more than a month, while only three days had passed in the outside world.
It is very simple to adjust the time ratio inside and outside the world. Even if he does not understand the law of time, Iron Heart does. The principle is like a watch in your hand. You don’t need to understand how it is made, as long as you can read the watch. Wei Huan only makes the rules. If it is not feasible, Iron Heart will naturally tell him.
The two of them spent some time in their own carefree world in this paradise on earth.
3 days is the limit.
Wei Huan is about to leave, and Mu Zhong still has a lot of things to do, especially saying goodbye to his family. There is a high probability that this departure will be a farewell forever.
It’s not that Wei Huan didn’t want to take Commander Mu and the others with him, but Commander Mu refused very firmly, just as they had guessed.
Wei Huan and Mu Zhong naturally would not force it. The reunion before separation was very short, and they were extremely reluctant to part when they did. Mu Zhong's mother could not stop crying.
Fortunately, even if Wei Huan reached the divine realm, he could still communicate with his clan members through the God Pleaser. He only needed to expend enough divine power.
In this way, even if you can no longer return to the world, you will not be completely cut off from contact.
Iron Heart added, "Once you've truly achieved the requirements and Blue Star has left the Challenge World, it won't be that easy for us to meet again then. Don't worry, with your blessings, their cultivation will improve and their lifespans will increase. We'll definitely be able to wait until the day we're reunited."
"That's quite plausible." Wei Huan released the hand he had been holding onto Mu Zhong, and solemnly assured Mu Dehao and Zhou Xian, "I'm confident of this trip to the Divine Realm. If anything happens to him, I'll definitely be the first to fall."
Zhou Xian held Wei Huan's hand and said, "You can't talk like that. You all must be fine. You are all my sons. No matter who gets into trouble, I will be sad."
Mu Dehao also nodded: "We are a family. As long as you are well, we will be relieved. It doesn't matter whether we meet or not. Just do your own things well. We will take good care of ourselves and wait for the day we can reunite."
Muhi nodded crying.
In order to see Wei Huan and Mu Zhong one last time, their family entered the ninth-level world for the first time. Once entering this world, the chariot could not go back, which had a great impact on Mu Dehao, one of the current marshals of the Challenge Legion.
But none of this matters compared to the impending separation.
Mu Dehao also said, "I'll find a time to retire. The only way I can meet you again as promised is to cultivate well and live a long life. Don't worry, I still have some talent in cultivation."
Wei Huan raised his hand and transformed into three strands of spiritual consciousness, which entered the foreheads of the three people respectively, and passed on his simplified ancient god body cultivation method to them. Before leaving, he also left behind enough ancient god crystals for cultivation.
Practicing both Dharma and body is not only powerful, but also can prolong life. If this departure is for a long time, it will always leave more room for maneuver.
Mu Zhong instructed: "The cultivation method of this Ancient God Body can be passed on, but the Ancient God Crystal must be kept secret. Also, after we leave, you must immediately return to the eighth-level world and do not stay in this world."
Zhou Xian was worried: "Will those gods really attack ordinary people?"
Mu Zhong said, "More than that. Fortunately, the God of Destiny is not one of them. If they follow the law of cause and effect, even an eighth-level world will not be able to escape the pursuit. Don't think too highly of these gods. In order to avoid death, they will do anything."
Zhou Xian nodded: "I understand. We will go back now." After that, she reluctantly took Mu Zhong's hand and said, "You and Wei Huan should discuss everything together and work together."
"Okay, I understand, Mom." Mu nodded, his eyes red.
Mu Zhong and Wei Huan's spiritual consciousness escorted them all the way out of the temple and to the boundary gate.
There was another moment of reluctance in front of the boundary gate. Mu Dehao and Zhou Xian stepped into the boundary gate first and returned to the eighth-level world.
Mu Xi fell behind by a step, looking at Mu Zhong, hesitant to speak.
Mu Zhong asked, "What's wrong?"
"How is Dou Lin?" Mu Xi asked.
"You guys?" Mu Zhong looked at Mu Xi expectantly.
Unfortunately, Mu Xi shook his head: "He is also my brother and my teacher. But since he came to the ninth level world eight years ago, he said he was in seclusion to become a god. Until today, there has been no news. I just want to know, is there any danger?"
"Dou Lin is fine." It was Wei Huan who answered her.
Wei Huan was ideological at the moment, and a little trick would make him look less intimidating and be ignored by passers-by. There was no need to put on such a big show when meeting his family.
Mu Xi looked at Wei Huan: "Is eight years too long? General Xu succeeded in just two years."
Wei Huan said, "Xu Qingqiang's situation is indeed special, but he didn't succeed in just two years. Before coming to the ninth-level world, we were perfecting the laws for a full 30 years."
Mu Xi nodded: "I understand."
Wei Huan looked at the little girl from back then, now grown and sensible. He raised his hand to rub her head and said gently, "After we leave, I'll ask you to take care of my parents. It may take a long time, so you must persevere and never slack off in your cultivation. There will be a day when we will meet again."
The corners of Mu Xi's mouth drooped and tears fell.
She nodded and said with a heavy nasal voice, "You should try to come back soon. I will miss you, always and ever."
Wei Huan nodded, feeling very sad.
He lived two lives. In the first half of his life, he mocked himself for having no relatives. If he said that Wei Jinhong was just too lazy to care about him, he could still deceive himself, but Wei Jinhong just used him, treated him as a useful ox or horse, and even wanted to sell him in exchange for benefits. He really didn't need such a father.
But the turn of things always comes unexpectedly. After he felt humiliated and had to choose to marry a man, he got everything he never thought of.
Lover, family, achievements. From then on, he had parents and a lovely sister. He had more people to protect, but he also became stronger because of it.
Of course, he also has the person he loves most in his life.
After seeing Mu Xi off, Wei Huan accompanied Mu Zhong for a stroll on the city streets.
The streets are filled with humans from different civilizations. Titans are still rare, and the elves have all retreated to the eighth-level world and are no longer seen on the streets. The most common humans now are the "divine craftsman" humans, the "short-lived" humans, and the "alien humans" who have a lifespan only one or two hundred years longer than the "short-lived" humans.
"Alien humans" are similar to the mermaid civilization that humans evolved to adapt to the ocean, the winged people that evolved to adapt to the sky, and so on.
In the past, "short-lived" humans rarely won through challenges to civilization, so these "alien humans" were the main theme of this world.
Because of Wei Huan and Xu Qingqiang, the "short-lived" humans quickly gained a place in this world, and there were many humans similar to Wei Huan and his companions on the streets.
They come and go, living in peace with alien humans and divine humans. The streets are bustling with people, especially the transactions between civilizations. The sharing of resources will make civilization develop faster.
Walking through the busy streets, no one recognized Mu Zhong. Eight years ago, Mu Zhong resolutely gave up everything and concentrated on practicing in seclusion, just to have the ability to leave with Wei Huan today.
Although he has not achieved his original goal yet, fortunately Wei Huan is also working hard for it and has found the best way.
"We have to start from the beginning when we reach the divine realm." Wei Huan walked beside Mu Zhong. No one could see him. The light distorted his existence. He was like a ball of air, but even in the bustling crowd, no one could pass through his body. Gods are inviolable.
Mu Zhong smiled: "What do you want to say?"
Wei Huan wanted to say something, but he found this conversation boring. What did he want Mu Zhong to say? Should he say that he was more important than all this overwhelming power? Wasn't that a clear choice? Or was he simply feeling guilty? Guilty about what? He'd made Mu Zhong give up so much for his own selfish reasons? But wouldn't that just bring him back to square one?
Finally he thought, no, he just cared too much about Mu Zhong, so he was worried about gains and losses, always hoping that he could get the best, and it would be great if he never had to make a choice.
Wei Huan took Mu Zhong's hand and did not answer his question. However, he could see from his cunning eyes that he seemed to have known everything for a long time.
Wei Huan smiled, and simply held Mu Zhong's hand tighter, then said, "Since Dou Lin is mentioned, let's go and see him."
"Okay, I just happened to be a little concerned."
Mu Zhong disappeared from the spot, and the space around him was soon filled with people coming and going. No one obviously noticed that a person had just disappeared here.
Everything is as usual.
At this moment, Mu Zhong and Wei Huan had already arrived at the temple area.
There cannot be only one god. Any race hopes to have as many gods as possible. Therefore, at the beginning of urban planning, a temple area will be established in the center of the city, which is large enough to accommodate a large number of temples.
The war ten years ago destroyed human cities, and most of this last main city also fell. When Wei Huan moved in, only the most central and largest temple remained intact, but it was also extremely dilapidated.
Ten years have passed, and this place has undergone tremendous changes.
All twenty-one temples were rebuilt, excluding the temples of Wei Huan and Xu Qingqiang. The other temples were gods of the past of mankind. Although they have fallen, mankind will always commemorate their existence.
The 22nd temple was started eight years ago and has been completed for seven years. It is the only temple that does not enshrine any gods.
This is simply because this is the temple prepared for Dou Lin, who is in the critical period of completing the laws and breaking through to become a god.
Unlike Xu Qingqiang, Dou Lin will definitely become a god as long as he practices step by step.
Even if the laws he practiced were occupied by gods, Wei Huan would be able to defeat him if he went to the divine realm. He did not have the hidden danger of his physical body collapsing before becoming a god like Xu Qingqiang. The worst that could happen was that he could press the pause button before becoming a god, and condense his godhood when the conditions were right.
The guards outside the temple were nothing to Wei Huan. He took Mu Zhong and easily entered without disturbing anyone, and went straight to the quiet room where Dou Lin was practicing.
The quiet room was filled with spatial symbols, which moved around Dou Lin, forming a spatial maze.
"It seems that we can see him at a glance when we stand here, but if we take a step in, we will be lost in tens of thousands of universes. Every choice will take us into different dimensional subspaces. One wrong step will make us lost forever." Wei Huan said.
Mu Zhong said, "I know you can break the spell with your strength and get out easily, but that will disturb Dou Lin's cultivation."
Wei Huan nodded: "That's right. Once you enter any realm, if the opponent has mastered the absolute rules, no matter how hard you struggle, it will be futile. Only an equal force can get you out directly."
"How far do you think Dou Lin has come?"
"Laws are very subtle, like picking beans. You may never finish picking them all, or you may only pick up two large beans and be done with it."
“Is this talent?”
"Those who can cultivate to become gods and touch the most core laws are all gifted. I think this is more like luck."
"What does it feel like to be incredibly lucky?"
"For example, I placed the complete Retrospection Godhead in front of you and helped you find the River of Time. That should be considered luck."
"That's right, the feeling of being supported by a god is so great that even a pig can ascend to heaven."
After saying that, both of them laughed.
They quietly left Dou Lin's meditation room and prepared to rush to meet up with Xu Qingqiang.
Everything that needed to be explained had been explained, and everything that needed to be said goodbye to had been said goodbye to. The time of departure was getting closer and closer. Although it was a bit regrettable that I couldn't say goodbye to Dou Lin in person, I thought that it wouldn't be long before they would have the chance to meet again in the Divine Realm.
Now, they are leaving.
