Five Frozen Centuries

The flame then said, “The center is a very small place. It’s almost smaller than every world. The world you’re in might be a game world, but it can’t be ruled out as a movie or animation world. Of course, this is just a metaphor. This world might not be a game world. I’m just using a metaphor to explain the relationship between worlds.”

Wei Huo and the others understood. Wei Huo said, “We jumped from one world to another. Is the thing in the four-dimensional barrier the center?”

The flame said, “That’s right. It’s just that you don’t know how to travel between worlds. You just accidentally moved from one tunnel to another. If you reach the real center, you can choose to go to another world freely.”

When Wei Huo and the others communicated with the flame, they only transmitted what they knew. That way, the flame could combine Wei Huo and the others’ knowledge and give them a similar explanation.

However, it was only similar. Language was not omnipotent, and spiritual communication was not omnipotent either. The same thing had different explanations from different perspectives, so it was impossible for the flame to explain everything clearly. It could only give them a rough idea. The rest could only be thought through and imagined by them.

The flame said, “I’ve already obtained knowledge about computers. Indeed, the composition of the world is very similar to a computer’s. The desktop is the center, and the desktop icons are the entrances to each world. However, unlike a computer program, every world connected to the center is running non-stop. They can’t be opened or closed. Although the world will die, new worlds will be born continuously. That’s the difference compared to a computer program.”

The flame was at least at the Mythical stage. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for it to pass through the four-dimensional barrier. When Wei Huo and the others asked, the flame said, “This form is good enough for me to hide myself. Every time I go to a world, I will observe the laws and the main race of this world. Then, I will turn into that race. That’s how I travel across infinite worlds. The more I know, the stronger I will be. Besides, as long as the center doesn’t die, I can live forever. Sooner or later, I will transcend this world.”

If the ultimate goal of a non-god existence was to become a god, then God’s ultimate goal was probably to transcend and leave this world completely. He would transcend so he would not be controlled by anything and would obtain true freedom.

However, this was not easy. Simply imagining it was like a piece of data in a computer program becoming reality. It seemed impossible.

According to the flame, the structure of the world was only similar to a computer program. However, the two were completely different. This meant that transcendence was possible.

The flame said, “But I’m not sure either. Anyway, there’s a 50% chance of success or failure. There’s no reason not to gamble. There aren’t many Mythical creatures. I’ve encountered a few occasionally, but everyone is using their own methods to seek transcendence. However, after hearing about the center, everyone plans to head to the center to take a look. What are your plans?”

Wei Huo said, “We will definitely go to the center, but not now.”

The flame said, “Is that so? I have to return to the center, though. My journey in this world has ended. I plan to head to the next world. Everyone, let’s meet again if fate allows it.”

The flame was not sloppy at all. It planned to leave, but before leaving, it said, “Let me remind you of something. Mythical creatures are not necessarily invincible. If you encounter an existence that surpasses the world’s limits, you will still be killed.”

The flame reminded them and then left the world. It passed through the four-dimensional barrier and left.

Wei Huo and the others returned to the black-and-white Titan and started discussing it. The reason they did not follow the flame to the center was because they were vigilant. After all, they had not been Mythical creatures for long. They should still be vigilant compared to veteran Mythical creatures.

However, they were very curious about the center. If they had time, they had to go to the center to take a look. They would go both to the center of that world and to the passageways of the various worlds.

Learning the truth about the world was their top priority now. However, before that, they had to complete the experiment they were planning to conduct in this world.

What was a soul?

As they were discussing this, a new Rule Power was suddenly sensed in God’s rule range.

A new Mythical creature?

This place was not far from the four-dimensional barrier. If one wanted to leave this world, one basically had to pass through it. That was why it was not surprising that a new Mythical expert would come. However, after carefully comprehending this, they realized that this was not the case. It was not a Mythical creature, but a Rule creation.

It was a huge ship. Although it did not have sails or oars, it could float and move. The Rule Power supported the ship, and there were rows of devils lined up on it. Wei Huo and the others had never seen the few of them.

In addition, there were three Wyverns flying in the sky. This was a devil army. It seemed like what the flame had said was true. In this world, if one did not invade the enemy’s territory, the enemy would invade their territory.

This was part of the rules and regulations of this world.

Wei Huo immediately ordered the devils to attack. The commander received a new order. This time, he was more cautious. He decided not to repeat the same mistake he had made last time. He was very cautious when facing the approaching devil army.

The Legendary-level creatures did not join the battle because they could not choose to be assimilated by the metal particles. Only existences below the Legendary level were assimilated by the metal particles. Their goal was to avoid being devoured by Darkness.

The devil army was still approaching the mountain, but the commander could not attack because they were protected by the Rule Power.

When the ship reached the shore, the Rule Power disappeared completely. Then, the huge devil army rushed toward them.

The commander was very calm. He immediately ordered a counterattack. Countless magic mechas rushed out. Bullets, lasers, missiles, and countless weapons shot out. The attacks formed by energy bodies were very powerful. The devil army scattered as soon as it appeared.

However, at that moment, Darkness appeared on the battlefield again. It suddenly launched an attack against the devils and the magic mechas on the battlefield. It did not consider which side was composed by creatures of its world. It kept attacking indiscriminately!

What was even more terrifying was that no one knew what had happened. Only three Mythical creatures knew about Darkness. The others did not know anything, nor could they see or even feel the existence of Darkness. They could only watch as their comrades around them disappeared one after another.
