Five Frozen Centuries Chapter 229: Small Family

Chapter 229: Small Family

Wei Huo investigated the city for three days and realized that no matter what he did, no points would be deducted. It seed like the rules of the law were indeed related to people’s nas.

However, Wei Huo was not sure. This level was too simple. He could pass it easily by using a fake na. Anyone could do it.

If he thought about it carefully, though, he would be controlled by the Rule Power if he did not declare his fake na. He might even spend his whole life there and never be able to leave.

At that thought, Wei Huo started thinking about what he would do if his real na was registered.

Wei Huo was deep in thought. What did the na ‘Wei Huo’ an?

Everyone knew that a na was just a symbol. It was used to make it easier for others to recognize a person and distinguish them from other people. However, a na had an important aning. It made one self-aware.

This na represented his life. As long as he did not change his na, this na would accompany him for the rest of his life. Everything he encountered in his life and all the mories stored in his brain would be related to this na.

A na did not an much to the true self, but it ant a lot to the person who had experienced everything and had a lifeti’s worth of mories. That was because the person who had experienced all this was Wei Huo.

At that thought, Wei Huo understood how to crack the seventh level. It was simple. If he did not want to be controlled by the Rule Power, he had to give himself a fake na right from the beginning. Otherwise, he would forget everything about his na. If a new version of himself was born, he would not be controlled by the Rule Power.

Wei Huo could not help but sigh when he thought about it. The seventh level is a true transformation. It’s not a physical transformation, but a spiritual one!

The vacuum-like universe on the sixth level could allow ordinary people to shed their mortal bodies and rebuild their bodies on the seventh level. However, the seventh level required the person’s spirit to shed the mortal body and rebuild a real self.

This was what it ant to be reborn. From one’s physical body to one’s spirit, one would be reborn before heading to the eighth level.

There was a special aning behind every single level of the nine levels of Kunlun. Even an ordinary person could walk up step by step as long as they had strong willpower and perception.

After reaching the ninth level, he might sever his connection to his past self and beco a new cultivator.

If soone who did not know the truth walked in, they might have to sever everything in their past to leave the seventh level.

After figuring everything out, Wei Huo decided to make a move. He first made the golden armor and Xiao Qian stay away from the city before heading to a place forbidden by the law alone.

It was a very luxurious building that had been built like a temple. It would sparkle when the sun shone on it.

There were guards guarding the place, but although they were all holding weapons, they were a little distracted.

Rule Power enveloped the city. If anyone who was not qualified to enter the city barged in, they would lose 100 points and get killed imdiately. That was why the guards were not very focused. On the contrary, they were more vigilant as they stared at those who had the right to enter or the guards around them.

Those who were qualified to enter this place posed the greatest threat. They all understood this logic. The so-called job of a guard was to keep an eye on one’s own people.

Wei Huo did not enter through the main gate. Instead, he climbed over the wall and entered. There were not many guards in the temple. Wei Huo walked around for a long ti but did not encounter a single guard.

In the end, he opened the Codex Revised Edition. The book recorded the location only registrars could enter.

What was ant to warn people so that they would not accidentally enter that place and die in vain ended up lighting up a path for Wei Huo. Without needing to search for more, Wei Huo found the place only registrars could enter.

It was an extrely huge stone array. The stone array was like a maze with more than one floor. The deepest part of the array was blocked by a huge stone and could not be seen clearly.

The area around the stone array was completely sealed, and there was only one exit. The exit was guarded by over 10 strong guards, and there was a group of officials in suits waiting at the door.

It was currently dinner ti, so before long, an old man appeared in the stone array. He was an old man in his seventies, so he was already very old. He had a head of white hair, and his back was hunched. He was walking unsteadily, and it seed like he could fall at any mont.

Everyone looked at him respectfully, but no one went forward to help him. It was only when he walked out of the stone array’s entrance that a few officials in suits stepped forward to help him.

“You’ve worked hard!” everyone said.

The old man waved his hand. “It’s not that tough. I’ve already registered so people this morning. Give the na list for the afternoon.”

An official said, “Dinner is ready. You should eat first.”

The old man took a few steps and suddenly sat down on the stairs. He then said, “Bring the food over so I can eat here. I’ll go back after I’m done eating. Ti cannot be wasted.”

An official tried to persuade him. “Don’t be anxious, old man. The rest are newborns who were just nad yesterday. There’s enough ti!”

The old man lifted his head. His eyes were bloodshot as he asked, “Have you found the three children who went missing 18 years ago?”

One of the officials had an ugly expression on his face. He did not dare speak.

The old man added, “For so many years, I haven’t been able to sleep whenever I think of these three children. They are not bound by the Law. God knows what they will do. If a citizen is hard by them, we will not be able to find out. They might live up to 60 or 80 years old. Unless the three of them die, I will not be able to rest. Do you understand?”

The officials were sweating profusely as they said in unison, “We understand! We will definitely find those three!”

Soone had already brought food over. The food was plain and simple. It was just tea and plain rice. The old man did not speak. Instead, he added, “I don’t hold a pen in my hand. I hold the future of this city. The children born yesterday can change their nas 1,000 tis today. Before they do the first bad deed in their lives, we can’t know if these children are really bound by the law. Even if one more child is not bound by the law, our city will collapse faster in the future. I don’t want to witness this while I’m alive.”

After saying that, the old man started eating. He ate very quickly, and when he was finished, he stood up from the stairs. With the help of an official, he walked toward the giant stone array. When he walked in, the official imdiately stopped, not daring to follow him.

However, there was still soone following him. Wei Huo had already used his Concealnt Skill to follow the old man closely.

The stone array was very complicated. It was much more complicated than Stonehenge in the United Kingdom. The one in the United Kingdom only had one level, but this stone array had at least 89 levels. Wei Huo followed the old man for a long ti. He walked left and right as though he was walking through a maze before seeing a stone gate.

There was a small world behind the stone gate, as well as a skylight. Sunlight shone in through the window, and Wei Huo saw a stone table and two stone chairs. On one side of the stone wall was a bookshelf with all sorts of books on it. Not far away was a pot of yellow flowers. Wei Huo also saw a water heater, tea leaves, teacups, and an ordinary wooden bed. There was a carpet on the floor, a broom, a garbage can, a mop, and a water bucket outside. It was already a small but warm ho.

The old man walked over. There was an ordinary notebook on the stone table. It was open, and there was a fountain pen on it. The fountain pen was pressing down on the book to prevent the pages from flipping in the wind.

The old man sat on the stone chair and carefully checked the nas in the notebook. He did not use the fountain pen for a long while.
