During these several hundred thousand years, though their physical bodies had died, they had still maintained their consciousness, hoping that one day they could see the city rejuvenate and witness their era flourishing once again.

However, when their consciousness woke up again, vanishing frantically, they realized that this was no longer their era.

Their era was now far, far behind them.

All was changed, the lands rendered unrecognizable.

"Your era... your era, how wonderful it is," Golden Armor said, his tone filled with envy.

From the memories of Xu Heng and Wang Ye, he observed current scenes of life: happiness, no wars, people well-fed and drunk, and even the disabled and unemployed received some subsidies.

Golden Armor lowered his hand, intending to let his consciousness dissipate freely, allowing other consciousnesses within the city to be liberated as well, when he suddenly sensed something and abruptly looked into the distance.

This time, Golden Armor's gaze pierced through the ancient relics' houses, through the earth above, through the heaven, and saw a scene vastly distant from Earth.

Or rather... a scene from another dimension.

"Ah."

Golden Armor sighed again.

He himself had wanted to bring these people peace.

But the problem was that danger was about to arrive.

Perhaps these people had not yet detected where the danger was originating, only when the danger arrived would they realize that it was indeed dangerous.

But by then, when they planned to deal with the danger, it would be too late.

Therefore, Golden Armor could only make these people start enhancing their strength from now so that when the danger arrived, they would have the ability to resist it.

"In the past, we were unable to protect our era of great peace."

"Now, I will lift the seal of power, hoping you can enhance your own strength so that when danger arrives, you can protect your era of peace," he said.

Golden Armor finished speaking.

He slowly walked to the back wall of the main hall in the City Lord's Mansion and placed the golden seal he had just taken from the desk into a recessed spot on the wall.

That second,

Wang Ye behind suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards Golden Armor.

After Golden Armor placed the golden seal on the wall, he also turned slightly, meeting Wang Ye's gaze.

"How... how could this be..."

Golden Armor's voice was very weak; placing the golden seal there had almost completely exhausted all the consciousness in Wang Ye.

Disbelieving, he barely managed to utter a few words before his consciousness was devoured by the golden seal behind him.

It should be noted that after using that move, under normal circumstances, it was impossible for these people to regain consciousness within several hours.

And Wang Ye...

Golden Armor did not have too much time to think, as that consciousness lingering for several hundred thousand years dissipated completely.

Beyond this.

In the ancient relics, all the remaining consciousnesses seemed to receive a summons at the same time, as they rushed toward the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, converging towards the golden seal.

The golden seal, having no absorptive capability, could only be filled by these consciousnesses.

None of these consciousnesses chose to escape; instead, they raced ahead, competing to reach the golden seal.

Although they knew that once they entered the golden seal, their consciousnesses, which had persisted for hundreds of thousands of years, would completely dissipate, and there would be no way to retrieve them thereafter.

From the moment they entered the golden seal, they would leave not even a trace in this world.

Yet, they continued to press forward.

Watching this scene unfold, Wang Ye seemed to hear the consciousnesses, like golden fireflies in the night, emit a soft "eh" as they passed by him.

It was as if they were puzzled by how quickly Wang Ye had regained consciousness.

But after making that soft "eh" sound, he could hear them speaking with serious and hopeful voices:

"Danger is about to arise, you must quickly enhance your strength to protect your era of peace and prosperity."

"Back when danger arrived, we failed to protect our era of peace, and now that your danger is imminent, we hope that you can safeguard your own times."

"You must persevere!"

These consciousnesses, initially apprehensive upon entering, were now sacrificing themselves to aid in facing upcoming dangers.

This scene brought immense shock to Wang Ye!

Although Wang Ye did not know what danger these consciousnesses were referring to, he could feel that upon entering the golden seal, they completely vanished.

Just as Wang Ye was about to say something, an intensely dense True Qi suddenly surged from beneath the City Lord's Mansion towards him.

At the moment this True Qi surged, Wang Ye's cultivation technique, "Emperor's Scripture," greedily began to operate as if it had encountered delicious food.

Countless True Qi was absorbed by the "Emperor's Scripture" into Wang Ye's body, filling every corner of it.

As a Third Grade Martial Warrior, Wang Ye felt his own body was full of True Qi.

But now, as the "Emperor's Scripture" operated, absorbing so much True Qi and nourishing Wang Ye's body, he found that his own True Qi had always been scarce.

Previously, Wang Ye's internal body was like a squeezed dry sponge, where a bit of True Qi could make him feel satiated, but that was merely an illusion.

The sponge had never truly expanded.

But now, as the sponge gradually expanded, Wang Ye could feel how barren his True Qi had been before.

However.

Wang Ye, who had never absorbed so much True Qi before, felt an indescribable pain spread throughout his body as he continued to absorb it relentlessly.

"Exploding..."

"So full..."

With a grimace, Wang Ye felt bursts of True Qi brutally stretching his veins, tearing open some that were closed; the intense pain almost made him cry out.

The next second.

Wang Ye's consciousness was completely overwhelmed by the pain.
