Chapter 224: History Is Surprisingly Similar

Many famous scientists would think that everything was too much of a coincidence after researching science. It seemed like a God had set the rules in this world.

In addition, Zero had reached the end of his research and could no longer move forward. That was why he felt that there was a God in the world who controlled everything.

However, a closer look would reveal that most of these scientists were foreigners.

Based on the thoughts of our people, there has never been a path. Let’s open up a path. If we can’t reach the end, let our descendants continue walking. We don’t care if there is a God in this world. Let’s become Gods first!

That was the difference between Eastern and Western Culture.

If scientists like Newton and Einstein came to China to live for a few years and understand the culture, they might become monks or Daoists. They would seek longevity before continuing their research.

Zero, who was in front of Wei Huo, did not know anything about China’s culture. He did not know how to meditate and cultivate Qi to achieve immortality.

If he was confused about his own birth and could not avoid death, he would have the same question as many famous scientists. Could God really exist in this world? Does He control everything, including my life?

Zero said, “I want to know if there are reincarnations in this world. I want to know if I can cultivate and have a second life after death. I’m not willing to die just like that.”

Zero had reached the middle Legendary stage and had a lifespan of thousands of years. However, he would eventually reach the end and die.

Death was a rule that no living creature in the world could escape from.

Zero wanted to understand this. He wanted to understand all the unknowns in this world, but he also wanted to live forever. Only by living could he understand all the unknowns and all the truths in the world.

Hence, Zero shook his head in the end. His purpose was clear. What he wanted to do now was kill everything!

He would kill everything. Every time he killed a robot, he would leave a mark on its soul. If there was really a reincarnation, the mark would tell him everything.

“One move!” Zero did not want to waste any more time.

Wei Huo agreed. If two Legendary creatures had scruples, they could fight for months without producing a winner.

Zero did not use the Rule remnant artifact. He formed a ball with his hands as if he was reproducing Yin and Yang Qi and drawing the Taiji symbol.

However, this was not Taiji. Zero did not have any concept of Taiji, nor did he know that this was the style of Taiji. However, the logic of the world was the same. At times, history was shockingly similar.

Everyone was different, but all people would eventually reach the same destination.

Zero’s Dao was about life and death. He wanted to understand life and death to seek immortality.

Wei Huo tapped his glabella and an endless aura of nirvanic extermination spread out before turning into a Black Dragon.

Zero said, “If I die here, I can personally prove whether reincarnation exists. If it doesn’t, it means that the One True God doesn’t want me to die. I will definitely understand the secrets of life and death!”

Many people would believe that fate was in control of everything when they looked back on their life at an old age. Humans were destined to lead a life consisting of various levels of wealth and poverty. They were destined to live, age, fall sick, and die. That was why they did not care about life and death.

That was what had happened to Zero that day. He did not care about anything. He felt that if he died here today, it would only mean that this was destiny. God just did not want him to continue living.

Zero’s opinion was the same as the opinion of the gigantic snowman Wei Huo had encountered in the past. The gigantic snowman had always thought that its life had been planned and it was destined to be someone else’s stepping stone. It would not die if it did not meet that person. Once it met that person, it would not be far from death.

However, other than the people who did not care about life and death and thought that they had understood fate, there were also some people who did not believe in fate.

The torrential flood was unstoppable, but one had to face it head-on and carve out a path. Even if one only had one-fifth of a chance, one would not give up. This was what cultivators meant. If there was no path, one had to forge a path!

At that moment, despite Wei Huo’s mood, the Black Dragon in front of him bared its fangs and brandished its claws. It was becoming more and more realistic. The dragon’s horns, eyes, beard, and scales were as vivid as if it was really a Black Dragon.

Zero’s hands spun as life and death intertwined to form a Taiji symbol.

A moment later, Wei Huo produced the Black Dragon while Zero produced the Taiji symbol. The two of them made the most powerful move.

Boom!

In an instant, the world turned dark. Although this small world was much harder to deal with than the third level, it was still torn to pieces by this terrifying move.

The golden armor and the others had retreated dozens of kilometers away but still felt the terrifying fluctuation.

Everything disappeared. The entire Mechanical Empire and the space within a radius of over 10 kilometers disappeared. Wei Huo and Zero had used their strongest moves, which contained their Dao. Although it was an immature Dao, the power of the two collisions was enough to tear apart the surrounding space.

However, space could heal itself and could do so very quickly. That was why the golden armor and the others saw the space that had disappeared gradually recover. Unfortunately, there was nothing there. It was completely barren. The mountains had disappeared, and a deep pit had appeared on the ground. It was bottomless, as if it led to hell.

The golden armor mumbled, “Could they have died together?”

However, the golden armor looked at the silent short-haired girl. The girl did not have a name, but the golden armor was aware of her background. She was a mark in Wei Huo’s subconscious. Due to the special nature of the fifth level, she had become a real person.

The golden armor predicted that although she had turned into a real person, she should still have some mysterious connection to Wei Huo. After all, she was a mark formed by Wei Huo’s subconscious. Since she looked so calm, Wei Huo should be fine.

“Who won?” the old bronze robot asked.

The golden armor glanced at the short-haired girl and said, “Wei Huo must have won.”

The short-haired girl suddenly disappeared. She moved forward silently and eventually arrived behind Wei Huo. She was neither near nor far away. She guarded him silently.

The girl was a mark in Wei Huo’s subconscious. If Wei Huo had killed her, she would have been liberated. However, Wei Huo had not killed her. She had turned into a real person instead. All she could do was protect Wei Huo silently and repay all the karmic debt from her previous life.

Wei Huo was the final victor because he had a strong will. He did not believe that he would have a next life, nor did he believe in fate. He was a cultivator. Even if his future was cut off, he would have to forge a path.

However, Zero had retreated at the last moment. He had left a way out for himself. He had thought that if he won, he would be blessed by the heavens. If he lost, it would be fate. If he died, he could verify if reincarnation existed.

Zero had lost just because of this tiny difference in willpower. The Black Dragon had shattered his Taiji symbol and rushed into his body, destroying all the life in it.

Wei Huo slowly floated up from the pit. The pit under his feet started shrinking, and endless yellow sand was buried in it.

Wei Huo closed his eyes. He had received a gift from Zero before his death. His level cap had increased to 200, and his occupation had become ‘Battle Scientist’. Besides, he had also obtained all of Zero’s knowledge and the Rule remnant artifact.
