Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 243

Chapter 243: Are You Stunned?

The Legendary vulture had suddenly appeared, and its neck had been pinched by Wei Huo. All the vultures present were shocked.

The Legendary-level vulture had yet to understand what was going on. It was in a confused state, as though it was wondering where it was.

Its appearance was very realistic. It looked like a sleeping person that had been grabbed by the neck by a man. Anyone would have been confused.

However, this vulture was at the Legendary stage. It immediately understood the situation and it was ready to spread its wings and fly into the sky.

The Legendary-level vulture was humanoid, but its head was a vulture’s head. Its wings had yet to turn into human arms, and only its feet and body were humanoid. There was a necklace made of baby skulls hanging around its neck, which was enough to show how cruel the Legendary-level vulture was.

It was shocked when it saw that Wei Huo had captured it. “Human? How did you do that?”

Wei Huo did not speak. An endless black aura surged out of his arms. It was the aura of nirvanic extermination. This aura suddenly turned into a group of lifelike fish. Every scale on the fish’s body was enough to pass off as real. The fish’s eyes emitted the aura of death. The fish waved their tails and rushed toward the Legendary vulture.

The Legendary-level vulture was shocked. It immediately used its domain power, but unfortunately, it was useless. Countless lifelike black fish drilled into the Legendary-level vulture’s body.

A moment later, the Legendary-level vulture disintegrated in front of everyone. Its body and soul were decomposed into streams of black aura. Its body seemed to have been hit by an invisible force and it disappeared at an astonishing speed.

Its soul was continuously devoured by the black fish, and in the blink of an eye, half of it disappeared. The Legendary-level vulture panicked. It did not believe that Wei Huo was a Legendary human. Besides, this Legendary creature was too powerful. It asked, “Who are you? Why are you pretending to be a human to attack Mount Emei?”

Wei Huo did not say anything. He could not be bothered to say anything. His appearance was equivalent to the arrival of death. There was no other path for the Legendary vulture apart from death.

Wei Huo put his hand down. The Legendary-level vulture thought that it had a chance and spread its wings to fly into the sky. However, the countless fish turned into a black aura. The aura wrapped the Legendary-level vulture up like a dumpling. In just five to six seconds, the Legendary-level vulture had disappeared.

The endless aura of nirvanic extermination returned to Wei Huo’s body, and only a golden soul gem was left in the area enveloped by the black aura.

“Patriarch!” The vultures on Mount Emei cried out in sorrow. They could not believe that the Legendary patriarch who had protected them had disappeared just like that.

However, the truth was right in front of them. They had no choice but to believe it. They were all terrified when they saw Wei Huo’s methods. An Epic-ranked vulture shouted, “What are you waiting for? Run!”

At that moment, Wei Lin had already led the team and charged forward. Her domain was a non-attribute domain because she had not cultivated it painstakingly. She had been born a Legendary being, but she would probably stop at the Legendary stage for the rest of her life.

In comparison, her sister Wei Sha might have a brighter future.

Shouts came from Mountain Emei one after another. Every vulture was fleeing frantically. The few humans who had been caught were spared. Those who were not unconscious were very lucky to witness this battle.

Zhou Song, who was an impatient person, had already charged forward. When he saw the ordinary people who were in a daze, he immediately shouted, “What are you doing? Hurry up and hide! That’s not right. Do the opposite!”

Zhou Song was a little embarrassed, but he quickly covered it up. He then shouted, “Hide quickly! When the battle ends, Mount Emei will be the territory of the human race!”

Upon hearing Zhou Song’s words, the group of ordinary people came back to their senses and quickly found a place to hide. At the same time, they were confused. Which race’s Legendary creature had helped the humans? Was it so powerful that it had killed the Legendary vulture instantly?

Wei Huo stopped participating in the battle. He instead went back to his hometown and arrived at the heritage cave. The cultivation techniques on the stone walls of the cave had been wiped away, but the heritage jade gate left for the players still existed. It seemed like the rules of the jade gate were protecting it. The Legendary vulture had been unable to destroy it.

Although this was a jade gate, it was actually a computer tablet that could be switched on. The players had to play a small game to obtain the heritage skill.

Now that Wei Huo had the ability to make humans players, he could naturally allow the humans who became players to obtain this heritage.

That was why Wei Huo had set up his first base on Mount Emei.

When Wei Huo returned to Mount Emei, the battle was over. The vultures that had yet to escape from the mountain were all destroyed. Corpses piled up and formed a small mountain, and blood flowed into a stream.

Wei Huo found the captured humans. There were both old and young humans, both male and female. As Wei Huo observed them, they lowered their heads and trembled slightly. They knew that this seemingly ordinary young man had killed a Legendary creature easily.

“That won’t do,” Wei Huo said.

Zhou Song was confused. “Why not?” he asked.

Wei Huo said, “They don’t have the right to become players. Even telling them the truth could make them collapse.”

Zhou Song understood what Wei Huo meant. People with weak willpower could not withstand the collapse of their worldview. Sometimes, knowing the truth would make them crumble.

Wei Huo waved his hand and removed the Thinking Lock in their minds. He then said, “We can let them stay here and undertake basic construction. We can also teach them body-refining skills or tell them the truth. Zhou Song, you handle this.”

Wei Huo did not care about this. He was not interested in it. In the Illusion Realm, he had once defeated the Demon Army and united the Solar System. He had the highest authority, but it was meaningless.

Money, power, and influence all ended when one died. Just as Zhou Song had said, the President may be the most powerful person in the world, but he was still human. He would still die. What difference was there between him and me?

Zhou Song looked at the trembling ordinary people and then at Mount Emei. He then said, “Leave it to me!”

Wei Huo handed a few cards to Zhou Song and said, “These are the Flying Creature Cards. I’m giving them to you as a means of transportation. Go to the nearest city and recruit the talented people you need. Find humans who are qualified to become players.”

Zhou Song suddenly grinned. “Brother Huo, is the Construction Guild going to dominate the world? I remember when the two of us pulled an all-nighter at the Internet cafe and stayed by the spawning point of the Boss that dropped Divine Talismans to farm them. Do you remember that game?”

Wei Huo smiled. Of course he remembered. Back when the game Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils was popular, he and Zhou Song had spent the night, spent money, killed people, and gotten killed by other players. However, they had never joined that guild. They had always been lone players.

Zhou Song sighed. “I think of the past. Unfortunately, I can’t go back.”

Wei Huo was still calm. Perhaps nothing in this world could make his calm heart stir.
