Chapter 344 - Asleep (1/2)
Rule of Death?
Kalan was shocked. He could not help but feel terrified when he realized that Wei Huo had possibly comprehended the Rule of Death.
What was death? What did it feel like to be dead? No one could say for sure. Death was death. Those who were reborn, revived at the brink of death, or reincarnated were not really dead.
A soul could only be considered truly dead when its lifespan reached its end. This kind of death could not be reversed. Once one died, one would really die unless one had broken through to the Mythical stage.
This was because Mythical creatures represented the Rules. Death was also a Rule, and only Rules could defeat Rules.
Chen Xuanyue and Kalan stood in front of Wei Huo. They were observing the dead person who had comprehended the Rule of Death. It was a weird feeling. He was obviously dead, but he had comprehended the Rule of Death. What was the use?
Although the Rule of Death was powerful, Wei Huo was already dead. Could the Rule of Death resurrect him?
As the two of them were thinking about that, the Rule of Death around Wei Huo started jumping. Chen Xuanyue and Kalan started retreating. The Rule of Death had become active. This was the first time they had felt the Rule of Death at close range.
The Rule of Death kept jumping and formed a contrast with the vibrant life fluctuations at the bottom of the volcano. It was like Yin and Yang. At that moment, two completely opposite things suddenly gathered and started changing.
Chen Xuanyue mumbled to herself, “What is the meaning of death?”
Chen Xuanyue had obtained the Dao Scripture, but she still had not become a Mythical creature in a year. That was why she had frozen herself again and waited for the person who could break the curse on her to appear.
Her curse was the curse of the Rule of Death. If Wei Huo had fully comprehended the Rule of Death, he might be able to save her from death. That was why she had sought him. However, what was the point of Wei Huo’s death?
At that moment, a faint voice echoed in their ears. “Everything dies. Only Death is eternal.”
The voice seemed to be ringing in their ears, but it also seemed to be echoing in their hearts. However, it seemed like they had never heard it before.
At that moment, Wei Huo slowly opened his eyes. The dead man had opened his eyes…
Kalan took a few hundred steps back. He was as terrified as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world. A dead person opening their eyes was more terrifying than anything else. He could not feel any life fluctuation coming from Wei Huo’s body, but he had still opened his eyes.
Wei Huo had slowly opened his eyes like a person who had just woken up.
His eyes were as black as ink and as deep as the night. They even had a unique suctioning force, as if they could suck other people’s souls in. They gave one the feeling that there were two black holes hidden in his eyes.
Chen Xuanyue and Kalan looked at the dead man who had opened his eyes.
At that moment, Chen Xuanyue suddenly asked, “What does death feel like?”
Wei Huo looked at Chen Xuanyue and Kalan clearly. He smiled and said, “It’s like sleeping.”
Wei Huo felt like he had just slept. Everything had changed when he’d closed his eyes and opened them again.
