Chapter 426 Return to Blue Star
Wei Huan then attended a dinner celebrating his achievement as a mid-level god. If he postponed such a major event, it might cause unrest among the pioneering army.
As the supreme leader, even if he is a god, he still has to put on a show when it is time to do so.
However, Wei Huan also discovered that Mu Zhong's absence and hasty retreat had caused speculation from many parties.
They are all shrewd people who have lived for almost a hundred years and can spot the signs of any disturbance. Mu Zhong's retreat is indeed suspicious in every way.
Therefore, when Mu Dehao came to him, Wei Huan did not hide it. It was because he couldn't hide it, and there were many arrangements to be made later that required everyone's cooperation.
Mu Dehao remained calm after hearing this, as expected of an old leader. He comforted Wei Huan, "Although the Chaos Beast is difficult to kill, since you can kill it, it is nothing to be afraid of. What you should worry about is their sudden attack after the seal is lifted.
I think your idea is very good. If any Chaos Beasts chase us out, we might as well lure them out and kill them. In ten years, even if there are tens of thousands of them, we can eliminate most of them.
During this time, we will study the evil beasts and will definitely find a way to eliminate them."
Wei Huan nodded, thinking it was great to have an elderly person at home who could support him.
It’s not that he can’t figure out some things, but when a respected elder gives him the answer with certainty, it is also a kind of support for him.
And after telling Mu Dehao these things, the rest was up to Mu Dehao to worry about. What Wei Huan needed to do now, and the only thing he needed to do, was to make himself stronger.
After finishing all his work, Wei Huan returned to his own private training room, ready to devote himself to the study of the reduplicated divine runes.
He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and concentrated, his consciousness sinking into the world of ancient gods in his body.
In the world of ancient gods, the mountain divine pattern shines with golden light, like bright stars.
Wei Huan concentrated his mind and tried to activate the repeated divine rune again. He carefully guided a stream of ancient divine energy and slowly injected it into the mountain divine rune.
With the injection of energy, the mountain divine pattern trembled slightly, and the light became more and more dazzling.
Wei Huan continued to increase the energy input, trying to superimpose a second mountain-shaped divine pattern.
This process was extremely difficult, and every attempt seemed to challenge the limits of his body. Wei Huan's forehead was covered with sweat and his body was trembling slightly.
After countless attempts, finally, the second mountain-shaped divine pattern was successfully superimposed, echoing with the first one and emitting powerful power fluctuations.
Wei Huan felt that the strength in his body increased several times in an instant. He was delighted, but he was not satisfied with it.
He continued to explore in depth, trying to superimpose the third and fourth mountain-shaped divine runes... Through constant attempts and failures, Wei Huan gradually mastered some of the rules of overlapping divine runes.
He discovered that the more divine runes that were stacked, the more ancient divine energy was required, and the greater the burden on the body.
In order to find his own limit, Wei Huan constantly adjusted the energy input method and the rhythm of superposition.
At the same time, Wei Huan also tried to combine the overlapping divine runes with the Law of the Impure Land. He guided the power of the Law of the Impure Land to revolve around the overlapping divine runes of the word "mountain".
With the fusion of the two, a new power gradually took shape. This power possessed both the powerful attack power of the Mountain Divine Mark and the mystery and weirdness of the Divine Law of the Impure World.
In the following days, Wei Huan immersed himself in the study of the reduplicated divine patterns, constantly breaking through his own limits.
Every breakthrough brought about a qualitative improvement in his strength, and also made him full of confidence in facing the chaotic beasts and unknown challenges in the future.
In the small world, construction work is proceeding in an orderly manner. People are working together to build a safe and prosperous home.
This day.
Wei Huan suddenly stopped practicing, stood up, took a step into the Silent Passage, and the next second he appeared outside the restricted area.
Xu Qingqiang, who had just arrived here and hadn't even stood firmly on his feet, was shocked.
Xu Qingqiang saw the person coming and shouted happily, "Boss!"
Wei Huan nodded, but his eyes fell on the other person beside him.
It’s Haotian.
Haotian from the Canglan world.
The Canglan world is a world of immortal cultivators. It was originally just an ancient feudal dynasty civilization that was more backward than the Blue Star. There were also internal strife and disputes, constant wars between countries, and it was still in the era of cold weapons.
Later, the challenge world came and captured all the people of Canglan and brought them into the world for the challenge. Everyone was given a golden finger that could allow them to cultivate immortality, and they started with a flying sword. It was called the National Immortal Cultivation Challenge.
Unlike the road challenge on Blue Star, they will be teleported into a world called the Nine-story Magic Tower, where nine levels of monsters live from low to high. Killing them will get magic crystals, which can be used to purchase elixirs, weapons and skills in the system mall.
At first, many of their people died. Also, because the ninth-level monsters were their competing civilization and would invade their world in reverse, the Canglan civilization almost became a remnant.
Any subversive change in civilization is inseparable from the appearance of a heroic figure, and Haotian is the existence that changed the outcome of civilization.
Seeing Haotian, Wei Huan silently sensed that he was the sharp god under the law of gold, the same godhood he had given him back then.
Talking about the seizure of the godhood of the Sharp God, that is another story.
He has been in seclusion these years to fight against the God of the Filthy Land, and has not taken care of many things. In addition, there are more and more gods around him, so he does not have to be involved in everything.
Mu Zhong planned to lure and kill the God of Sharp Rui and snatch his divine nature. Dou Lin and Xu Qingqiang took action, not only to kill the new God of Sharp Rui, but also to destroy his kingdom of God.
In the end, they had one more elemental god on their side.
It’s a pity that the God of Laws that Fang William cultivated has not been found in these years. Fang William has always remained at the level of a half-step god and cannot achieve godhood.
Apart from this, after so many years, no one with the potential to become a god has appeared among the human race.
Fang William is the only one who is half a step away from becoming a god.
Just like the fruit trees that humans have nurtured for many years with their clan luck, they bloom and bear fruit at the same time, but there are only so many fruits in total. Other clans are either branches or leaves. Even those as strong as Titan, who were like gods in the eyes of humans in the past, are just the strongest trunks on the fruit tree.
It’s as if the number of fruits is determined from the beginning.
If you want to add more, you will have to wait for another long period of cold winter and hot summer.
Wei Huan welcomed his new companion: "Welcome."
"Marshal Wei!"
"You have become a god, and we are companions. From now on, you can call me Boss just like them."
"Boss!"
Haotian excitedly shouted the name that had been rolling in his throat for a long time. Although these two simple words represented that he had obtained Wei Huan's permission and entered a new group, which was stronger and more united, and was what he had always longed for.
Haotian is very clear about the situation here. He has been a god for ten years. Xu Qingqiang has said a lot. He has also made sufficient preparations in advance. The ancient god body has also allowed him to practice. Now he only has time to open up the small world in his body.
Wei Huan did not waste any time and directly opened up the Silent Passage, bringing them into the small world at the core of the restricted area.
Haotian walked out of the Silence Passage. Even though he felt extremely uncomfortable, his eyes were sparkling with excitement. Looking at the city before him, which was not prosperous at all and even seemed a bit quaint, he said with emotion as if he were on a pilgrimage, "I'm finally here."
People always yearn for places they have never been to. In fact, the living conditions here are much more difficult than challenging the world. The most important thing is that the laws that they have practiced so hard are useless here, and they have to practice the ancient divine body from scratch, which is not the best choice for gods.
But because Wei Huan was here, all the human gods were here, so even though he knew everything, Haotian still rushed over regardless of everything.
Wei Huan naturally welcomed this and officially regarded him as his own and his brother.
There are trillions of human civilizations, but there are only five of them who have reached the level of gods. Mountains and rivers have changed, time has passed, and for countless epochs since then, they have been the only ones to accompany each other.
"Being here is like being at home. If you have anything, just tell me or anyone else directly. You will have everything we have. From now on, we should be loyal to each other." Wei Huan said this and took out a lot of resources for Haotian.
Haotian also knew that Wei Huan was sincere, and he was also very clear that they were of the same clan, and no matter whether the future was turbulent or rich and leisurely, they should face it together.
He took the resources without hesitation and said, "I will devote myself to seclusion and cultivate the Ancient God Body. Whether it's dealing with the Chaos Beast or facing the hostility of other gods in the Divine Realm, I will definitely be able to help."
However, Haotian had one very important thing to do before he went into seclusion.
It is to settle the tribesmen he brought with him.
Because of his achievement of godhood, the Canglan clan has lived a very good life among the human race that challenges the world in recent years. They are the most respected race with the best welfare benefits, second only to the humans on Blue Star.
But just as there are people who will follow Wei Huan to death, Haotian also has his own supporters. Moreover, because he is the only god in Canglan civilization, as the only treasure, he has more followers.
In one go, 300 million people came.
When the small world inside Haotian's body failed to be created, he asked Xu Qingqiang for help. Now that Xu Qingqiang has released the people, the resettlement of more than 300 million people is enough to give everyone a headache.
Wei Huan knew very well that when different races lived together, there would definitely be friction and possibly conflicts of stance.
But he is not afraid. As long as he remains the strongest, no one will dare to cause trouble. If a conflict really occurs, he believes Haotian will be more nervous than him and will suppress it immediately.
Besides, the Canglan people are not stupid. They come here not to destroy the stability and harmony of Qiyuan Star, but to join here. Compared with the people of Blue Star, they want a more stable environment. Perhaps within a few hundred years, they will be completely integrated together.
Wei Huan didn't need to worry about these things. Xu Qingqiang called him aside and said, "This time when I come back, I will switch shifts with Dou Lin. He will guard the Challenge World, and I will guard the Chaos Source Gap.
I heard you say that killing the Chaos Beast can increase soul power, so I want to try and see if I can kill it. Since I started practicing, I've gradually realized the importance of soul power in understanding the laws. Moreover, if soul power is insufficient, the speed of cultivating the Ancient God Body will also be slow. "
Wei Huan frowned. "You majored in the Law of Withering, so burst damage isn't your forte. How about this? I'll demonstrate. If you can achieve this level of damage, it means you can kill the Chaos Beast, and I won't stop you from going to the Inner Divine Realm."
Xu Qingqiang nodded: "Let me see?"
Wei Huan raised his hand, and four golden divine runes appeared in his hand, which were then connected by the repeated divine runes. He swung his fist towards the void, causing the void to collapse. He almost knocked out another inner divine realm.
Xu Qingqiang looked at the void that collapsed and slowly healed, and remained speechless for a long time.
Then he turned and said, "There's one more thing I think I should tell you."
"What?" Wei Huan looked at him.
Xu Qingqiang said: "Mr. Wei is on his deathbed, and he wants to see you before he dies."
Wei Huan was silent for a few seconds, then nodded: "Okay, I understand."
Wei Huan made Xu Qingqiang depressed, and Xu Qingqiang also made Wei Huan depressed. Both of them didn't want to talk anymore. They fell silent for a while and digested the situation on their own.
However, a few days later, when Dou Lin left, Wei Huan left with him and returned to Challenge World.
He activated the Dao of All Laws and returned all the way from the ninth-level world to Blue Star. He concealed his figure and went to the hospital, but unfortunately he only saw an empty bed.
I only found out from hearing other people talking that Wei Jinhong had died half a day ago.
Wei Huan felt a certain amount of regret. His regret wasn't that he hadn't met Wei Jinhong, but that he hadn't fulfilled his filial duty. He wasn't a good person, and he'd always been mean to Wei Jinhong, but he still had some basic morals. He felt he owed it to the man who had brought him into this world to repay his debt of gratitude.
It’s a pity that we are not destined to be together.
"...He has been buried in the Wei family cemetery. Where can you go to pay your respects?"
This is the best hospital on Blue Star. Ordinary nurses are all third-level prayer masters, while the chief doctor and dean of the hospital are all ninth-level "gods". After answering the visitor's questions, the two nurses walked to the corner and chatted in a low voice.
"In the days since Mr. Wei's death, everyone has been waiting for Marshal Wei's return. I heard that many people from various countries have come, and the media have been waiting outside the hospital for days. But now that Mr. Wei has been buried, Marshal Wei has not returned. It seems that the rumors are true. When Mr. Wei was young, he abandoned his wife and children and humiliated Marshal Wei in every way. That's why he didn't enjoy any preferential treatment after Marshal Wei became a god. Marshal Mu and his family, on the other hand, were always accompanied by Marshal Wei wherever he went. I heard that they have now settled in the divine realm. When Mr. Wei died, he was so regretful that it made me sad to see him."
Another older nurse shook her head. "Your words are not true. We are not involved in the Wei family's feud, so we don't understand it and shouldn't discuss it. I only know that Mr. Wei lived a life better than 99% of people. He lived a life of wealth and luxury, enjoying endless pleasures. When he fell ill, he was directly admitted to the VIP room of our Challenge Hospital. The director and the world's top doctors consulted on him, and he died of natural causes without any illness or pain."
But the young nurse didn't understand the deeper meaning behind the other person's words, and said with some complaint, "But nowadays, people can easily live for two or three hundred years after going through the Challenge World. Mr. Wei only lived to be 135 years old. If he had gone through the Challenge World to cultivate, he wouldn't have lived only that long."
After saying this, the young nurse glanced around and lowered her voice, "There was another son of Mr. Wei who died 50 years ago. I heard that the descendants of the Wei family have been detained in Osam and have not been allowed to return, and have not been allowed to enter the Challenge World.
You said, if Marshal Wei has a grudge against Mr. Wei, he should just ignore him. The younger generation is so innocent. Even if you give them great wealth, if you don't let them enter the Challenge World, what's the difference between them and disabled people with broken hands and feet?"
It was obvious from his words that he was talking about Wei Huan's cruelty.
Another older nurse was almost furious and raised her voice to scold, "What does this have to do with you? You're so concerned about other people's affairs, are you crawling at the foot of the bed to listen? If you don't know the details, don't talk nonsense. Do you know who is responsible for our Blue Planet's current situation? Did you learn all that history in the textbooks in vain? Our Blue Planet was almost destroyed. If it weren't for Marshal Wei standing up, would you be here to speak out?"
I'm putting this out there today. If you keep making random guesses like this, I'll ask you to find another master to guide you. I'm not capable of doing that. I'm really afraid that you'll become stupid and become a burden to me."
The young nurse's face turned pale and she was scolded to tears. She said she wouldn't dare to do it again, but there was a clear look of unconvincedness in her eyes.
A hundred years have passed since the human crisis. The new generation of young people have grown up in peace. They have not experienced the cruelty of the past and naturally do not understand why these "heroes" are not allowed to even discuss it when they clearly did something wrong.
After hearing the young nurse say that Wei Shuai died 50 years ago and his descendants still cannot enter the challenge world, Wei Huan stopped listening and left.
Even he was surprised by the news.
He had tacitly agreed to the Mu family's placement of Wei Jinhong, and he also knew about the fact that Wei Shuai was stopped in Osam, and he had allowed it.
Later, he went too high and too far and forgot about these things. Unexpectedly, it was not until Wei Jinhong's death that these things came into his ears again.
Are you the descendant of General Wei?
Wei Huan arrived at the Wei family cemetery, floated in the air to hide his figure, and looked down silently.
The Wei family is not a big family, nor does it have any family tree. Before the advent of the challenging world, they were just ordinary people. Until he appeared, things were no longer the same.
Many relatives of the Wei family suddenly appeared, including many who died when the challenge world came.
Perhaps because of the loneliness in his old age, Wei Jinhong used the little power in his hands to gather together the Wei family members scattered all over the place, and the Wei family tombs were also moved to one place, so this Wei family cemetery came into being.
The Wei Family Mausoleum is located in the suburbs of the capital, with an excellent geographical location and feng shui. A total of 134 tombs stand in the green hills, and there is a statue in the middle.
The statue was strangely shaped, carved from a shimmering black stone. A faint golden light of law seemed to flow across its surface. The statue's form was a massive circular magic circle, its edges engraved with intricate patterns of the Law of the Unholy. These patterns intertwined, forming a unique rhythm that echoed Wei Huan's Law.
After Wei Huan became a god, he could no longer be carved in human form. He had become the law of the dirty world itself, and this statue was the law form of the god of the dirty world.
In addition, he practices the laws of death, so his statue will be placed in the Heroes Cemetery, implying that the heroic spirits of Blue Star will always follow the God of Death.
Death is not an end, but a new beginning.
Current Blue Star laws stipulate that only martyrs' cemeteries can place statues of Wei Huan's gods. The only exception is the Wei family cemetery.
Wei Huan was not aware of this, but he did not feel offended. His sculpture stands here, and his mother and grandparents are also buried in this cemetery.
The Wei family cemetery is bustling today. Wei Jinhong's identity is not ordinary, and the whole burial process was grand. Now many people who got the news have specially rushed over and placed white chrysanthemums in front of Wei Jinhong's tombstone to pay tribute to him.
Wei Jinhong has accomplished nothing in his life. When he was young, he made a mistake and was deceived by Gong Lianying to betray Da Xia. Later, he lived a luxurious life for many years and only started to do charity when he was old. He is definitely not a person who has made any contribution to Blue Star.
But the fact that he is Wei Huan's father is enough to change all his reputations. Even if he did do a lot of things that he shouldn't have done, the leaders of the Challenge Army and the Mu family will help cover up for Wei Huan and shape his image.
The young nurse and the people queuing to pay tribute to Wei Jinhong were unaware of the truth, but they also loved the whole family.
Wei Huan didn't want to care about this at all. The Mu family had done the best for him. Wei Jinhong lived a rich life and lived to the age of 135. His life was worth it.
Wei Huan's soft gaze was mostly focused on the tombstones of his mother and grandparents. Looking at the smiling photos of his family members on the tombstones, memories of his youth flooded into his heart, and at this moment he truly felt the pain of parting.
His gaze lingered on his family's tombstones for a long time before he looked away.
The other members of the Wei clan were not all unfamiliar to him; he could vaguely recall the appearances of some of his relatives in his mind. However, the advent of the world of challenge was like a sledgehammer that shattered all the families, and many Manchus were wiped out.
Later, the distant relatives of the Wei family were found and settled by Wei Jinhong. After their lives became stable, they quickly grew and expanded.
Wei Huan's last glance fell on the group of people in mourning clothes, there were 56 of them.
Among them were 24 underage children, which made Wei Huan's eyes soften.
He didn't care about bloodline, but seeing so many children coming into this world because of the old man's loneliness, it was rare for Wei Jinhong to do something right before he died.
In addition, there are these Wei family members, among whom there is actually a ninth-level challenger. After Wei Jinhong's death, he has become the head of the family, responsible for receiving all guests who come to pay their respects, and discussing something with the people sent by the Mu family.
Their conversation could not be hidden from Wei Huan's ears.
The head of the Wei family, Wei Longjun, was speaking to the Mu family, saying, "The old man had two wishes before his death: one was to see Marshal Wei one last time, and the other was to bring back his descendants stranded in Osham. I know Marshal Wei is far away in the Divine Realm and can't be contacted, but so much time has passed, and the grudges between three generations have been settled. I've seen those children, and not being able to enter the Challenge World is like having their hands and feet cut off. It's truly pitiful."
The Mu family sighed and said, "We are also actively contacting Marshal Wei, but Marshal Wei is in seclusion for cultivation. In addition, the Divine Realm is far away and inaccessible. We have tried our best to find General Haotian to pass on the message to General Xu Qingqiang. The twists and turns in between are far beyond your imagination."
"Can't we just lift the ban?"
"No, absolutely not. You've been by the old man's side for so many years, you should understand that some things are beyond our control. Without Marshal Wei's approval, none of us dare to agree."
"Oh, how long will it take? The oldest of those kids is 28 years old, and the youngest is two years older. In two years, everyone of their age has reached the third level, while they are still ordinary people. It's really difficult."
When Wei Huan heard this, his spiritual consciousness spread outward like a tide. With the strength of a mid-level god, his spiritual consciousness easily spread across the entire Blue Star.
It took some effort, like a sieve, to find the descendants of General Wei.
