Five Frozen Centuries

Wei Huo's Lightning Force dissolved the spirit flame. However, in the next moment, Wei Huo was stunned as he found that the spirit flame carried a specific memory.

The memory was unusual. It was the memory of a Lillend in ancient times. During those times, humans were only primitive apes. They were far different from present humans in terms of intelligence and appearance.

During those times, apes were only food for the Lillends and some were even treated as livestock by Lillends.

Of course, Wei Huo was sure that there were no Lillends in ancient times. These creatures were probably added to the world by God recently since God was able to decide on what was the truth anyway.

The remaining memories had nothing to do with humans. It described the construction process of these ruins. The ruins had three floors and was designed for sacrificial ceremonies to worship the Lillend God. The bottom floor was the residence of the shaman, the second floor was filled with provisions, while the third floor was where the altar was located.

Wei Huo was on the third floor, while the first and second floors were located underground.

The Lillend which Wei Huo had just killed was a sacrifice used to worship the Grim Reaper. It was sealed in the coffin to be suffocated to death. However, for some reason not only did it not die, it actually stayed alive under such unique conditions. It even became a creature of Epic (Pseudo) rank.

It was in a state of deep sleep until Wei Huo bombed the sealed coffin.

After Wei Huo obtained this memory, the altar began glowing. Soon after that, a system alert appeared, 'Epic (Pseudo) Creature (Incomplete) Production method discovered. Build an Altar and a wooden coffin carved with a golden snake on it before placing a sacrifice in the coffin. There is a 5% chance for the sacrifice to become an Epic (Pseudo) creature and a 95% chance of mortality. A complete method can increase the success rate of the process."

Wei Huo was stunned. A method to make creatures of Epic (Pseudo) rank? There was such a function available?

'If I mastered this method, does this mean that I can mass produce creatures with the capabilities of the Lillend skeleton?'

As the Lillend's skull was completely shattered by the Lightning Force, its bones became scattered all over the ground. Wei Huo collected those hard bones.

'Hint. The bones can be used to strengthen your equipment.'

Bones that could strengthen equipment? Great!

Wei Huo collected all of them and picked up the necklace.

Wei Huo brought the necklace toward the gate that led to the next floor. Just as he approached the gate, runes on the gate began glowing. However, this time, they were glowing in green.

Does this mean the gate has been unlocked?

After killing the Lillend skeleton, the Mimic started trailing behind Wei Huo again. Wei Huo thought of something as he shoved the bones into the Mimic's mouth and found that its stomach was actually a bottomless pit. The bones were nowhere to be found after the Mimic opened its mouth again.

Wei Huo carried the Mimic. "Are all kinds of treasures hidden in your stomach?"

Wei Huo started shaking the Mimic upside down. Soon after that, random items began falling out of the Mimic's mouth. On top of the skeleton, there were also Black Bombs, bomb drawings, as well as all sorts of stones, wood, and bronze items.

Wei Huo was speechless. "…"

'Is your mouth a 4D Pocket[1]?'

Wei Huo looked closer. The items that had been swallowed by the Mimic were all within the width of its mouth. There were no items that went beyond its mouth's width. Nonetheless, this was still a backpack of unlimited capacity!

On top of that, there was no mention of its lifespan!

Wei Huo's eyes glowed as he looked at the Mimic. This could be his very own treasure.

However, Wei Huo did not know how to tame this little thing. As long as he held the bone that he had found before this, the Mimic would continue to follow him.

Wei Huo thought about it. Apart from the bone, he stuffed everything the Mimic had vomited back into its mouth.

As an experiment, Wei Huo passed the bone over to Wei Sha. The Mimic became confused. It shook its head and looked at both Wei Huo and Wei Sha before attempting to bite Wei Sha.

As a result, it was kicked by Wei Huo.

Wei Huo exerted more force this time around. The Mimic flew for a few hundred meters, but came back running and tried to bite Wei Sha again.

Wei Huo grabbed the bone and the Mimic ran towards him with its tongue out. It acted like a dog again.

Wei Huo understood it at that moment. The Mimic would not follow Wei Sha who was considerably weaker than he was. It chose to trail behind him instead.

After clarifying that, Wei Huo pushed the gate open. This floor seemed to be a storage space for quite a bit of provisions. If Wei Huo could no longer carry anything, he could just throw them into the Mimic's mouth as it was easier this way.

With the gem in hand, Wei Huo opened the gate with ease.

Turbid air rushed out from behind the gate. Wei Huo waited for a few moments with scrunched eyebrows before entering the floor. With God View, Wei Huo could see things clearly and they were all bronze items. Most of them were pots and pans. If these things were found by humans before the time halt began, they would be valuable, but these meant nothing to Wei Huo right now.

After looking around, he found a locked bronze gate. Wei Huo was puzzled. 'Why was there a need for this many bronze items in front of a locked gate?'

In the next moment, Wei Huo found the answer to his own question.

There was Qi energy within the bronze gate!

The bronze items here were capable of conducting Qi energy! Just as how copper could conduct electricity, these bronze items could actually conduct Qi energy!

Bronze itself could not conduct Qi. However, this bronze gate seemed like an usual one. It might not even be actual bronze but be made with materials that resembled bronze.

After all, what seemed like gold might not actually be gold, what seemed like silver might not actually be silver, and what seemed like bronze might not actually be bronze.

Wei Huo thought about it. If he could make weapons with these materials, he could improve his Lightning Force and Qi energy, and subsequently increase the range of his attacks. For example, if the dragon spear could conduct Qi energy, it would not be punched into a bent by the Lillend skeleton as Qi energy could improve the weapon's strength and their destructive power.

Wei Huo stared at the bronze gate. There must be something good behind that gate. Otherwise, those things would not be protected by a Qi energy-wrapped gate!

Wei Huo channeled his Qi energy into his fists and threw a punch. However, the moment his fist met the bronze gate, Wei Huo was repelled by a stronger Qi energy from the gate and flew for over ten meters.

Wei Huo scrunched his eyebrows. This gate is too tough, it is impossible to destroy it before exhausting his Qi energy!
