Chapter 340: 10,000 Years

The middle-aged man led his wife to the temple. This was their first time there. Under the guidance of the Oracle in the temple, they arrived at the place where Wei Huo was meditating.

It was a barren piece of land, but Wei Huo was sitting cross-legged there quietly. No one had come to disturb him. The Oracles had built a tall wall to prevent ordinary people from entering. Even they were not allowed to enter this place.

The middle-aged man and his wife did not seem like ordinary people. They were led to Wei Huo by the temple’s abbot. Then, he retreated, leaving the three of them alone.

The couple observed Wei Huo closely. Wei Huo had not changed at all. It was as if everything had happened yesterday. At that moment, Wei Huo opened his eyes, which were as dark as ink and as deep as night. He saw the couple and realized that the middle-aged man looked like Zhang Li.

The middle-aged man said, “Ancestor, I’m Zhang Yi. My grandfather, Zhang Li, has passed away. I’m the new clan leader of the Skyfall Race.”

From a certain perspective, it was not wrong of Zhang Yi to address Wei Huo as Ancestor. After all, Wei Huo had lived for far too long. Now, the land dwellers and the Atlanteans had started getting married. They were no longer segregated.

Wei Huo realized that there were wounds on Zhang Yi’s arms and neck. It seemed like there had been internal strife in the clan over the years.

Wei Huo asked, “How many years has it been?”

Zhang Yi said respectfully, “Ancestor, 5,000 years have passed.”

Time had indeed passed too quickly. Unbeknownst to him, 5,000 years had passed. Wei Huo did not sigh too heavily. He just asked, “Are you here to fulfill your grandfather’s promise?”

Zhang Yi said, “Yes, I will take over my grandfather’s promise. I will cultivate to the peak of the Legendary stage and fight you fairly.”

Wei Huo was silent. The same promise had been passed down for three generations. He had not expected that so much time would pass.

Wei Huo closed his eyes and said, “I’ll wait.”

Zhang Yi and his wife descended the mountain. His wife asked, “First, are you sure you can break through to the peak of the Legendary stage? You’re only at the middle stage of the Legendary stage.”

Zhang Yi said, “No.”

His wife got worried. “You only obtained the position of the clan leader after a long battle. Many people are not convinced by you. If you can’t take back the divine weapon…”

Zhang Yi said, “Although I don’t have the confidence to enter the peak of the Legendary stage, I am confident that I can kill the Ancestor. Even though he’s at the peak of the Legendary stage, he only has a maximum lifespan of 7,000 years. He was already over 2,000 years old 5,000 years ago. Although he looks very young, he’s actually very old now, right? He’s about to die…”

Zhang Yi left with his wife. They were confident that they could kill Wei Huo, but they did not know that Wei Huo had obtained a lifespan of 3,000 years because of the BUG. That was why he could live for up to 10,000 years.

Ancient people used to often greet the emperor by saying, “Long live Your Majesty.”

However, no emperor could live forever. Only deities could live for a long life, and Wei Huo was still one step away from becoming a deity.

Zhang Yi left confidently but returned after 1,000 years. He asked Wei Huo in exasperation, “Why aren’t you dead yet? How long can you live?”

Wei Huo told him, “Break through to the peak of the Legendary stage and defeat me. There’s no other way!”

Zhang Yi replied angrily, “I don’t believe it. The peak of the Legendary stage only provides a 7,000-year lifespan. You can’t break this rule!”

Wei Huo closed his eyes. “Go back.”

Zhang Yi turned and tore down the temple’s door before he left. No one dared to stop him, but he regretted it when he returned to the tribe. Many people from the Skyfall Race had started believing in Wei Huo. They believed that Wei Huo was immortal and had become a deity.

Fortunately, the temple’s abbot covered everything up. 500 years later, Zhang Yi came again. This time, he was not as angry. He entered the temple and found Wei Huo. He then complained to him. “My wife passed away. Her cultivation level was only at the Epic stage. I couldn’t extend her lifespan, no matter what I did. Why are you still alive?”

Wei Huo did not answer. It seemed like time had stopped and nothing could affect him.

Zhang Yi said, “I’m only at the middle stage of the Legendary stage. I still have 1,200 years of life left. From this day onward, I’ll come here every 100 years. I want to witness your death.”

After saying that, Zhang Yi left. The others did the same every century. In the beginning, he was a strong middle-aged man. However, gradually, his hair turned white and his body hunched. By the 1,100th year, he had turned into a white-haired old man. His face was covered in wrinkles, and his eyesight was weak. His legs were no longer agile either.

However, Wei Huo still looked young. His appearance had not changed at all.

Zhang Yi told Wei Huo, “Old man, you’re not dead yet, but I’m about to die.”

Wei Huo closed his eyes and focused on comprehending Death. Meanwhile, he ignored Zhang Yi.

In the 1,200th year, Zhang Yi was carried in front of Wei Huo by a group of guards. At that moment, Zhang Yi said, “You haven’t broken through to the Mythical stage, have you? You should be 9,000 years old, right?”

Wei Huo opened his eyes. His soul’s lifespan was indeed over 9,000 years. He was still 1,000 years away from the end of his lifespan. Over the past 7,000 years, he had been sitting there and observing the death of the planet and everything else in the world. However, he had yet to break through to the Mythical stage.

Just as Zhang Li’s eldest brother had said, the peak of the Legendary stage was only meant for mortals who could ascend the mountain. However, the Mythical stage was meant for mortals who could ascend to the sky. It was indeed not an easy realm to reach.

Zhang Yi said, “I’m about to die. This promise of this challenge will end with me. Don’t let this promise continue binding the next leader.”

Wei Huo still did not speak. Zhang Yi added, “After I die, I’ll bury myself here. I want to see it when this guy dies.”

After saying that, Zhang Yi asked Wei Huo, “Do you mind, Ancestor?”

Wei Huo smiled. “Go ahead.”

Zhang Yi really died. A few days later, a tomb appeared in that barren land. The tomb was facing Wei Huo.

A few days later, a young leader climbed the mountain and said, “Ancestor, my name is Zhang Wu. Leader Zhang Yiqian was my grandfather. I came here to tell you that I want to reach the peak of the Legendary stage and challenge you!”

Wei Huo smiled. “I’ll wait.”

The promise was eventually passed down.

However, decades later, another grave that faced Wei Huo appeared in the barren land. Chaos had broken out in the Skyfall Race over the years. The leader had been killed, and the new leader had succeeded him and gotten the throne.

However, according to tradition, every new leader would come and tell Wei Huo that they would become a Legendary creature and challenge him. In the end, there would only be a new grave in 100 years.

Wei Huo waited and comprehended. The number of graves around him increased, and the aura of death surrounded him until Wei Huo’s soul turned 10,000 years old…
