Five Frozen Centuries

Panda Novel

Winning this war had made most people happy, and only a few people knew the truth about this race.

Apart from that, they had also discovered a good thing. Any people who had been assimilated by the metal particles and regained their senses were no longer repelled by the world’s power.

This was good news. This meant that there was no need for God to modify anything. As long as one was assimilated by these particles, one could survive in this world.

The ability to assimilate was really helpful. Besides, all the metal devils on the mountain had been destroyed, and the mountain had naturally become their territory.

Of course, it would not be wrong to say that they had snatched it. However, without God’s help, all the metal devils on the mountain would have turned into metal men.

That way, they finally had a foothold in this world. They could finally understand this world better.

At the same time, Wei Huo’s so-called soul experiment started.

The elites of various fields and the experts who had reached the peak of each industry were now useful.

It would be interesting to study whether they could reach the peak again in this world with different bodies.

As mentioned previously, if one wanted to improve further, one had to start from the soul. Otherwise, it would not work.

From this perspective, perhaps heading to the Underworld was a good choice!

The Underworld was the home of living creatures after they died. Wei Huo had never been there, nor could he go there. After all, only dead people could go there.

The Underworld that had been set up for players on Earth was a fake one. The address was on Pluto, which was later destroyed. It was not a real Underworld.

The so-called real Underworld was where some living creatures in this world would go after they died. Some people called it Hell, while others called it Abyss. They were both the same place, or perhaps they should be called the same world.

This was a troublesome matter. Only by dying could one go to the Underworld. It seemed like Gods could not go there casually unless they had a special way.

It was recorded in the ancient historical work of literature Journey to the West that the omnipotent Monkey King had been lured to the Underworld by the Soul-Hooking Envoy.

In that case, searching for the Underworld was an important matter. However, the problem was that not all living creatures could go to the Underworld after they died.

The ancient Z Country had described this process in the form of art. In reality, this was meant to show that only special people could enter the Underworld after death.

Otherwise, if everyone could go to the Underworld, the Black and White Impermanence would be extremely busy. Besides, the black-and-white envoys came personally to take one away. Didn’t this mean that one was a very, very important person?

That was Wei Huo’s conclusion after he observed many living creatures. Not all living creatures could go to the Underworld after they died.

Most living creatures’ souls dissipated after they died. At the end of the day, their souls were not tough enough. Once they left their bodies, they would dissipate soon.

Creatures above the Rare rank could last for a longer time, but they could not last long. Epic-ranked creatures already had very tough souls. Even if their bodies died, they could continue living in another body. However, the Black and White Impermanence did not seem to care about these Epic-ranked experts.

There was no need to mention Legendary creatures. Legendary creatures would not die unless their spirit was destroyed. They could live without a body, but their strength would be greatly reduced. As for Mythical creatures, they would naturally not die. The Black and White Impermanence would definitely not come looking for them.

No, it would be better to say that reincarnation was definitely a lie. The Black and White Impermanence came to find people because they were useful or because the underground lacked people and needed them. Otherwise, when so many living creatures were dying in the universe, wouldn’t the black-and-white envoy go crazy?

“That’s the problem!” Wei Huo said. “I can control the Rule of Death and see many people die. However, I’ve never seen anyone being taken away by the Black and White Impermanence, nor have I seen anyone’s soul really go to the Underworld. It’s uncertain whether places like the Underworld exist.”

The Snake God said, “However, if the Underworld doesn’t exist, where do newborn souls come from? This is an unavoidable question. Since there are souls in the world, we have to find out where they come from and where they go.”

Wei Huo and the Snake God started discussing this again. This time, Chen Xuanyue joined their discussion. Their discussion lasted a long time, as if Gods should spend their time on such discussions.

However, that was not wrong. The only interest of Gods was exploring the unknown.

To put it simply, becoming a God might not be difficult. It was just that no one wanted to become one. They wanted to achieve an impossible goal and become stronger. That was all. Legendary creatures and peak Legendary creatures were both like that now. They only wanted to set up an impossible goal, which was especially true for peak Legendary creatures.

Otherwise, what should they do?

They had already become the strongest and were invincible in the world. What should they do next? At the peak of the Legendary stage, there was still the goal of becoming a God. However, what could they do as Mythical creatures?

The only thing they could do was explore the unknown. However, that was also the only thing they could not do. Although they were Gods, it was impossible for them to conjure the secrets of the universe out of thin air. No matter who they were, they all had to explore before discovering the secrets.

That was what a God was like. It was not true that Gods did not have feelings, but they could not set goals like humans. They could only work hard and move forward to face challenges.

Nothing could threaten a God. Nothing could make a God have a hard time. Power? Money? Beauty?

What did these things mean to a God? Nothing.

The three Gods knew this the best, but the existences below the Mythical stage did not know that no matter how friendly or how arrogant the three Gods were, these ordinary people were still following the Gods at the peak of the Legendary stage.

That was because becoming a God was their goal. Or rather, their spiritual pillar.

These things were also within the scope of God’s research. After all, if one wanted to study souls, one had to study human consciousness.

That was basically the current situation. However, a weird thing happened hundreds of years later.

Someone’s soul disappeared!

That immediately caught Wei Huo’s attention. After all, he was monitoring everyone’s deaths.

This person had died because he had been sick. His soul had then disappeared after his death. It had not dissipated or been absorbed. It had disappeared…
