Chapter 427: Reincarnation Authority
After several generations of reproduction in Osam, Wei Shuai's grandchildren no longer looked like Daxia people, and Wei Huan could not get close to them at first sight.
General Wei has two sons and a daughter. After his daughters got married, the children changed their surnames, which was not restricted. Also, because of their relationship with the Wei family of Daxia, they lived a pretty good life and were a well-known family in Osham.
The two sons were not so lucky. Wei Jinhong gave them enough money, and the Mu family also made arrangements for them to be rich. However, the eldest son did not learn his lesson and, like his father, got involved in things he shouldn't have. The father and son died less than five years apart.
The youngest son's branch was passed down. Although it could not become a challenger, the family was rich and had someone behind them to give the green light to do business, so it was a wealthy family in Osham.
There are three descendants of the youngest son, that is, the grandchildren of General Wei, two girls and one boy.
The eldest daughter is a 25-year-old girl who was brought up by her father to learn business management and to be trained as his heir.
The second child is a 25-year-old boy who is a lawyer. The first case he took on after working was to sue Wei Huan, demanding the restoration of their challenger rights. It caused a sensation last year and also affected Wei Huan's reputation to some extent.
The youngest daughter is 22 years old and also follows her brother to defend her rights, but the most important thing for her now is to get married. Just like their aunt, as long as they get married, their children can become challengers and enjoy the preferential treatment of the Wei family.
The descendants of Wei Jinhong and Gong Lianying, just like Wei Jinhong himself, have enviable wealth and money at their fingertips. As long as they do not betray humanity or Daxia, the top leaders of the entire Challenge Army will give them the green light.
But they cannot gain power and cannot become challengers, which is both regrettable and frightening.
Wei Huan's spiritual sense was so powerful, and with the replica of Iron Heart in his body, it only took him a moment to collect a hundred years of information about Blue Star, and Wei Huan understood everything.
"Mr. Mu." Wei Huan didn't move, but his voice was already ringing in Mr. Mu's ears.
Old Master Mu is the third uncle of the head of the Mu family. After so many years, he is still serving as the director of the Challenge Materials Department. Because he is also a seventh-level challenger, he is currently in good physical and mental condition.
Old Master Mu is the pillar of the human race, and his background is so terrifying that it makes people scream. Not only does he have a descendant who has become a god, but he also has the human leader Wei Huan supporting the Mu family. It can be said that if the Mu family wants to rule Blue Star, no one can say anything.
But for so many years, Mr. Mu has only been guarding the Challenge Materials Department, working diligently as if he were guarding his own wallet, and he also imposes restrictions on the Mu family in all aspects.
Therefore, after so many years, no inappropriate rumors have been spread about the Mu family.
Occasionally, some disobedient descendants would be dealt with by the Mu family themselves before they were fully exposed.
Mr. Mu has always been respected and has always shouldered important responsibilities. He is invited to attend every important meeting on Blue Star.
This time, the main point discussed at the Blue Star high-level meeting was that Haotian became a god and took away 300 million Canglan monks, but in the past 20 years, the number of challengers sent by Blue Star to the Divine Realm was not even 20 million.
The divine realm is too far away from ordinary mortals, but that doesn't mean they don't worry about it. They won't imagine that their own gods will suffer losses and lose face in this matter.
Therefore, the core content of this meeting is whether to send more clansmen to the divine realm, and if so, how many should be sent?
When Wei Huan's voice rang in his ears, Grandpa Mu was pondering whether it was really necessary to send people. After all, no matter how many mortals were sent, they were not as important as the gods.
There are four gods on their Blue Star! Even if Haotian brought all the Canglan monks with him, the Blue Star would still have the greatest power in the divine realm.
Moreover, he had dealt with Wei Huan before and knew very well that Wei Huan was not a believer in bloodline theory. He was born to be an excellent leader and he longed to lead everyone to become stronger.
It used to be Blue Star, and now it’s the human race. To him, the strength of Canglan monks has never been something to be wary of. He should be happier to see the overall strength of the human race.
It's just... all this is his understanding, maybe it's wrong, maybe... In short, he shouldn't have any say in this matter. After all, arranging more people from Blue Star to go there will not be any harm in the construction of the Divine Realm Qiyuan Star.
Oh, every time I get to this time, I really want to retire.
He's clearly at retirement age, but challenging the world has added to his age. Now he's 166 and still working 996. How miserable he is! The world is so big, he wants to see it too!
"Mr. Mu, it's me, Wei Huan."
Just as Mr. Mu was silently shedding tears for his miserable life as a slave, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Old Master Mu's eyes bulged, and he stood up. At the same time, he changed his inner decadence and said in a loud voice, "Marshal Wei, you are back?"
"What?"
"who?"
"Marshal Wei is back?"
A single stone caused a thousand ripples. In the originally serious meeting room, everyone stood up and looked around.
Wei Huan stepped into the air and arrived at the conference room in one step.
Even though he tried his best to restrain the power of the gods, the pressure at the life level still made everyone realize in an instant that this was the arrival of the gods.
The conference room instantly became boiling with excitement, and everyone excitedly shouted, "Marshal Wei!"
The voice was full of awe and surprise.
Wei Huan nodded slightly, his eyes slowly sweeping over everyone present, and he said softly, "Everyone, please take a seat. I've come back this time and have a few things to discuss with you."
His voice was calm but carried an irresistible majesty. Everyone quickly quieted down and took their seats, their eyes fixed on Wei Huan, afraid to miss every word he said.
Elder Mu spoke first, his tone filled with concern: "Marshal Wei, are you all right in the Divine Realm? Although we are far away on Blue Star, we are always thinking about you and our compatriots in the Divine Realm."
Wei Huan smiled faintly and responded, "Thank you, Mr. Mu, for your concern. The situation in the Divine Realm is rather complicated, but we are also working hard to deal with it. This time I came back, I learned some things about General Wei's descendants."
When the descendants of General Wei were mentioned, there was a slight commotion in the conference room. Everyone knew that this was a sensitive topic.
Wei Huan continued, "I have decided to lift the ban on General Wei's descendants from entering the Challenge World. Past grudges should not continue. They have the right to pursue greater power and contribute to the development of human civilization."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement.
A gray-haired old man stood up and said, "Marshal Wei's action is very wise. Let the past be the past. Giving young people a chance will also add hope to the future of our mankind."
At this time, another military general spoke up: "Marshal Wei, what are your thoughts on sending our people to the Divine Realm?"
Wei Huan pondered for a moment and slowly said, "The Divine Realm is currently fraught with danger, and mortals who go there do face many risks. However, in the long run, this is also a vital opportunity for us to expand humanity's living space and enhance our overall strength. I believe we can systematically select some talented and determined young people to go to the Divine Realm, and at the same time strengthen their training so that they can better survive and develop in the Divine Realm."
Elder Mu nodded and added, "Marshal Wei is absolutely right. We can organize a selection within Blue Star, prioritizing those who are passionate about building the Divine Realm and possess relevant skills. This will not only ensure the quality of the people sent to the Divine Realm, but also allow them to more quickly integrate into the construction work of the Divine Realm."
Everyone had a heated discussion on this and put forward many suggestions on selection criteria, training content, logistical support and other aspects.
Wei Huan listened carefully to everyone's speech, offering his own insights and guidance from time to time. The meeting lasted for a long time, and finally a series of consensuses were reached.
As the meeting drew to a close, Wei Huan stood up and looked at everyone with a determined gaze. "Ladies and gentlemen, human civilization is at a critical stage of development, and each of us shoulders a heavy responsibility. I hope that everyone can work together, both on Blue Star and in the Divine Realm, to strive for the prosperity of mankind."
Everyone stood up and shouted in unison: "We are willing to go through fire and water for human civilization!"
The voice resounded throughout the conference room, full of power and determination.
Wei Huan looked at the group of people in front of him who were full of fighting spirit, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.
He knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, as long as mankind united as one, it would be able to overcome everything and move towards a brighter future.
After the meeting, Wei Huan was called away by Mr. Mu alone. He stammered, "Well, we are a family, so I won't say that nonsense.
If you leave this time, why not take me with you?"
Wei Huan: “…”
I really didn't expect it to be this sentence.
Mr. Mu said, “I am old and my life span is coming to an end. I heard that practicing the Ancient Divine Body can increase my life span, so I want to change my environment.
Another thing is that I have been in this position for more than 70 years, and young people have never had the opportunity to take office, which is not conducive to family inheritance.
Last but not least, I want to visit the Divine Realm, I really want to."
The Mu family is a very strange family. They seem to be born to control power, or maybe it has something to do with their growing environment. They have known since childhood that their future will be different from others, and they have their own responsibilities that they must bear.
Perhaps it is this unique birth that makes the people in this family have both ambition and skills, but they are wholeheartedly focused on doing big and right things. They are not greedy or corrupt, neither arrogant nor impatient, and they only want to make the human race better from the bottom of their hearts.
Another thing is that they are very good at letting go, probably because power itself is not what they pursue. Power is just a tool, a way for them to achieve their ideal goals, which gives people a sense of freedom.
When the old man was still alive, he said that the Mu family was a century-old clan and was trustworthy.
At that moment, when Old Master Mu was so unrestrained about resigning, Wei Huan hadn't considered it at all. Instead, he was worried about him: "I'm leaving soon, and I don't know when I'll be back. The handover of power in your hands will take time, and there's also the training of a successor. I'm afraid the sensation of your departure will cause a big shock."
Old Master Mu waved his hand. "I'll work like a slave for a hundred years, but I can't control what happens after that. Every year, my family puts so much effort into cultivating the children's academic character and improving their abilities. If the Mu family collapses after I'm gone, they'll be the ones to blame!"
Mr. Mu smiled and said, "Just take me with you. I want to live for myself for the rest of my life."
Wei Huan: “…”
The old man has a very unique perspective.
Wei Huan naturally couldn't refuse the old man's request, so because of this accident, Wei Huan had to stay in Blue Star for a while longer.
Mr. Mu said he would let it go, but the truth is, how could he just let it go?
Since he would be staying in Blue Star for a long time, Wei Huan decided to solve the doubts that had been bothering him for a long time.
Why do people on Blue Star have no souls?
If the souls of the people of Blue Star were taken away by the Challenge World and turned into the operation of the Challenge World, becoming summons of other civilizations, or falling into eternal sleep, is it possible for me to find the place where they are sleeping?
After all, he is the God of Death, and now he has become a mid-level God of the Divine World. He should be qualified to explore and challenge the world, right?
This secret has been in his heart for many years, and now it is time to reveal it.
"So, this is the Blue Star? The place you have been avoiding me?" Just when Wei Huan had no way to go up to heaven or down to earth, and could not find the whereabouts of his soul, the voice of the Lord of Light suddenly sounded in his mind.
"Teacher, have you recovered from your injury? This is indeed Blue Star, but I didn't avoid you. I just came back to deal with some trouble. Shouldn't I have come back and not avoided you?"
Wei Huan greeted him with surprise, and would never admit that he was afraid of the Lord of Light. He believed that those who are not of my race must have different hearts. He was not a believer in bloodline theory, but the biggest believer in bloodline theory. It was just that in his heart, the bloodline was "human", not just the Blue Star.
However, after spending a long time in contact with the Lord of Light, especially when their interests became completely aligned, some secrets were no longer so important.
More importantly, the Lord of Life is at the Lord level, and the Lord of Light is also at the Lord level. The secrets that you hide may be seen through by others at a glance. Instead of calculating with your own eyes, it is better to always maintain this consistent position and learn more from Him.
Now that the Lord of Light has taken the initiative to speak, isn’t this a guiding light delivered to your doorstep?
Wei Huan spoke bluntly, "Teacher, how exactly does the soul of this world challenge work? Initially, I thought the monsters we needed to kill had no souls, and even their bodies would be taken away after death. Later, I found that the civilization we were challenging was not special either, and our souls were obviously not in us.
Only after becoming a god, leaving the world to challenge and consolidate my body, did I truly feel "complete."
The Lord of Light nodded. "That's a good question. Speaking of this, we have to talk about the Great Emperor Taichu, the one who governs death and karma in the world."
“Death and Karma.”
Wei Huan nodded. Death was related to him, and karma was related to Xu Qingqiang. This was why they became "Gods of Disaster". The labels given to them by the "Ancient Killing Alliance" were ultimately a struggle for the position of Emperor.
Besides, why it was the Taichu Emperor who fell instead of the Yuanshi Emperor? This also involved some disputes over the laws and secrets that he could not explore now.
In short, the Emperor of Heaven who was supposed to rule over the dead souls has fallen, and he is the only God of Death in the world. The souls of the people of Blue Star have been taken away by the Challenging World. There must be an inevitable cause and effect here.
The Lord of Light also said: "After the fall of the Great Emperor Taichu, the divine authority was scattered everywhere. This Lord of Light must have obtained a portion of the authority of death, which gave him the ability to control the souls of the dead.
You want to find the soul, but you can't do it on your own. After all, this is the authority of the Great Emperor, and now it is controlled by the Lord of Life. You definitely can't touch it with your strength."
Having said that, Wei Huan heard another meaning from the Lord of Light's words: "So you can find it?"
The Lord of Light raised his chin high, with a proud expression on his face: "Of course."
"And," the Lord of Light continued, "I can probably understand one of the reasons why you Blue Star's talents are so outstanding. This Lord of Life must have gathered a large amount of divine authority and used it to operate this challenging world. Only then, after tens of millions of years, did he finally give birth to your most unique race.
Or perhaps it's finally time for the blossoming and fruiting to happen, and the good fruits have all fallen on your Blue Star, leading to what we have today."
"Are you trying to explain this from a probabilistic perspective?" Wei Huan thought this answer was too perfunctory.
The Lord of Light said, "I will try to speculate more truths. This is just one of the answers."
"The least likely answer."
“Don’t underestimate the wheel of fate.”
Wei Huan was not in a position to say more, but he disagreed in his heart.
The fact that he was reborn alone shows that the truth is not simple and cannot be explained by probability.
The Lord of Light is at the Lord level, but he couldn't see through his soul reconstruction. This shows that the secrets he possessed were not even worthy of a Lord level master.
Therefore, the only secret that is not qualified for the Overlord level is the Emperor level.
Emperor of Heaven?
Was it the Great Emperor of the Beginning? Or the Great Emperor of the Original? Could it be the Great Emperor of Hongmeng or the Great Emperor of Chaos? Whoever it was, what had they done? What were they trying to do? And what was so special about him?
Of course, it is also possible that this was a trick used by the Lord of Life. In order to compete for the position of Emperor, His methods must also be emperor-level methods. It is normal that the Lord of Light, the eliminated former Lord, could not see through it.
In short, Blue Star’s conclusion is not as simple as the Lord of Light said. It is definitely not probability theory. There must be secrets that he cannot explore now.
Wei Huan stopped arguing, and the Lord of Light believed he was right, so he continued, "The Lord of Life attempted to use this incomplete authority of death to break the boundary between life and death and build its own reincarnation system.
It puts the collected souls, including the souls of the Blue Star people, into an extremely complex cycle of laws, trying to comprehend the true meaning of life and death in the flow and collision of souls.
To free the soul, we must first find a flaw in the core laws of the place where the soul is imprisoned. The restrictions and traps set by this master of life, while extremely powerful, are not invulnerable.
After saying this, the Lord of Light extended an illusory hand. A ball of shimmering energy emerged from its palm, faintly pulsing with strange runes. "This is a law tracker I've condensed with the power of my own remnant soul. It can sense the aura fluctuations of the Great Emperor Taichu's death authority. As long as you approach the place where the soul is imprisoned, it will guide you to its exact location."
Wei Huan carefully took the ball of energy, feeling excited.
To find the souls of the people of Blue Star is to free Blue Star, and this has always been his goal.
According to "Heart of Steel", he needed to reach the Lord God level to have a chance, but he didn't expect to be close to the goal so quickly.
It is true that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure, and it helps you avoid many detours.
Wei Huan no longer hesitated and immediately urged the Lord of Light to prepare to go deep into the core area of the world to challenge it.
The Lord of Light warned, "The Lord of Life's exploration of the Laws of Death has very likely triggered some uncontrollable changes. Deep within the Challenge World, there may be some distorted soul powers. These powers are extremely dangerous. If contaminated, the consequences will be disastrous. You must proceed with caution."
Upon hearing this, Wei Huan was startled and nodded solemnly.
Then, a man disappeared from the spot in a flash of his soul, rushing towards the core area of the challenge world.
As he continued to delve deeper, Wei Huan felt the scene before him suddenly shift, as if he were immersed in a chaotic sea of consciousness. Strange fluctuations permeated the air, each imbued with a unique law of power. These laws intertwined and collided, forming a bizarre and dazzling scene.
In this sea of consciousness, Wei Huan keenly caught a familiar yet strange breath - it was a breath closely related to the law of death, and at the same time mixed with an indescribable rhythm of vitality, as if the two forces of life and death were subtly merging.
He had an idea and decided that this breath must be related to the truth of Challenge World taking away the souls of the Blue Star people, so he went to explore the source of the breath without hesitation.
As he got closer, Wei Huan saw a huge ball of light floating in the void.
The Lord of Light stopped in the distance and said, "This is reincarnation."
After saying this, the Lord of Light looked at Wei Huan meaningfully.
"Reincarnation..." Wei Huan murmured, looking at the ball of light.
The ball of light emits a soft and mysterious light, and in the light you can faintly see the outlines of countless souls flickering and struggling.
He tried to touch the ball of light with his spiritual consciousness, and a powerful repulsive force came towards him.
This repulsive force contains the will of the master of life, as if warning Wei Huan not to get involved easily.
Wei Huan withdrew his consciousness and looked at the Lord of Light: "But I don't feel the breath of the law of reincarnation."
The Lord of Light said: "Above the Lord, one can condense the laws into reality and transform them into every blade of grass and every tree in the world. They are the laws, and the laws are everywhere."
Wei Huan was very clever: "You mean my level is not high enough? Even if this reincarnation is right in front of me, I can't understand it."
"Indeed." The Lord of Light was not trying to discredit Wei Huan. "You hold the Yellow Springs Law in your hands. Comprehend it first, then use the Yellow Springs and the Impure Land Laws to deduce the Law of Reincarnation. This is the simpler and most correct method. Don't try to understand the master's masterpiece of knowledge integration. You won't understand it."
Wei Huan nodded. He understood what the Lord of Light meant.
He is still at the stage of learning to understand the rules. How can a kindergarten kid understand advanced mathematics?
However, although he knew that it was difficult to fully understand the mystery with his current level, he still tried to find a clue from the details.
During the observation process, Wei Huan noticed that some strange patterns occasionally flashed on the surface of the light ball. These patterns were fleeting, but they gave him a vague sense of déjà vu.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. The changing rhythm of these lines was subtly similar to the frequency of the surging waves of the Yellow Springs.
Wei Huan realized that this might be a secret link between himself and the law of reincarnation.
