Chapter 337 - The Ruined Earth (2/2)
That was why no one knew the secret of the Heaven Ascension Peak.
Wei Huo had once guessed that there was a huge alternate world behind the four-dimensional barrier. The Heaven Ascension Peak was only the entrance to that alternate world. However, he could not enter before reaching the Mythical stage. The four-dimensional barrier was terrifying. Any matter or spirit that came into contact with it would be quietly destroyed.
Wei Huo had once experimented with a Legendary weapon. However, the moment he had touched the four-dimensional barrier, the Legendary weapon had been distorted and stretched by a weird force. It was as if a stick had stretched out a piece of paper.
That was why Wei Huo would not go to the Heaven Ascension Peak before he became a Mythical creature.
Now, he was guarding the mouth of the volcano. He carefully comprehended the images of the planet’s death that he had observed during this period. It was a rare sight. In fact, no one would be able to watch the planet’s death at such a close distance like he had. If he comprehended this scene, he might be able to comprehend the Rules of Death.
Wei Huo sat down with his legs crossed and comprehended it carefully. He no longer needed to eat at the peak of the Legendary stage. He could withstand such harsh environments. Even if a violent asteroid hit him, he could turn into a Phantom Body to avoid it.
In reality, after the Earth Core energy was released, although the earthquake’s power decreased, the number of times the asteroid hit the Earth increased.
The magnetic field was weaker, and the atmosphere was thin. When meteors fell, they would not self-destruct because they rubbed against the atmosphere. Therefore, many small asteroids floating in the universe collided with Earth one after another. In an instant, ring-like craters of various sizes appeared on Earth.
Wei Huo ignored the meteorites and studied the images of the planet’s death carefully. A year later, a fleet appeared on the horizon. It was composed of silver-white fan-shaped ships. The largest ship was comparable to a continent.
This fleet of spacecraft stopped in Earth’s orbit. Then, a few small silver-white fan-shaped spacecraft descended from the sky. These spacecraft stopped at the foot of the volcano. Then, soldiers in armor walked down from them.
Wei Huo had already discovered them. Upon seeing the ships, he thought of the ship and the assault armor he had found on the snowy mountain. However, at the time, they had called themselves the sanctuary civilization, and this fleet should be the fleet of the Atlanteans.
They had finally arrived. After 53 and a half years, they had arrived on this dying planet. Everything had been orchestrated by them. Now, they were there to reap the fruits of their labor.
However, Wei Huo’s existence made them extremely vigilant. The aura of the peak of the Legendary stage spread across every corner of the volcano. A few Rare-ranked soldiers knelt on the ground after taking a few steps. Even with Heart Protection Helmets, they could not resist the aura of the peak of the Legendary stage. This aura was too terrifying.
At that moment, three Legendary Atlanteans disembarked. They were very young, and the leader was a late-stage Legendary creature. They could not withstand this powerful aura either. However, for the sake of the giant snake’s corpse and the Phantom Staff, they had to bite the bullet and go up the mountain.
Nevertheless, they knew very well that the peak of the Legendary stage emitted such an aura. It was obvious that Wei Huo would not give them a chance to enter the volcano. They did not have a temper when facing Wei Huo, who was at the peak of the Legendary stage. After all, their race had yet to produce a peak Legendary creature!
“Leader? Are we really going up the mountain?” a Legendary Atlantean asked.
The leader said, “We have to go up the mountain. We Atlanteans have been waiting for this day for 10,000 years!”
