Five Frozen Centuries

Chapter 67: Cultivation Scroll

Wei Huo kept thinking. What is one’s presence? Why is my presence so weak?

Humans had eyes, ears, and noses, but why would they ignore a particular person?

Was it because the human brain automatically selected unimportant information, or was it because the brain waves emitted by a person who was easily neglected were so weak that they were not easily noticed?

So humans are ignored by these creatures because they do not have any thoughts and have not emitted any brain waves ever since the time halt?

If that was the case, would his presence increase as he grew stronger?

Upon seeing that Wei Huo was deep in thought, the Wild Giant stopped talking. It did not dare to disturb Wei Huo, as this was usually known as an epiphany among their species!

Generally speaking, one’s strength would increase after each epiphany.

That was why they were so passionate about human science. The more thorough a person was when it came to human science, the stronger they were.

Wei Huo lifted his head with confusion in his eyes. Moments later, this confusion disappeared.

Wei Huo pushed those questions to the back of his mind, as it would be meaningless to think about them now. Rather than doing so, he might as well ask the Wild Giant for advice on how to become Epic-ranked and find out why it was guarding this place.

Wei Huo asked the Wild Giant, “How did you reach the Epic stage? Do you know anything about reaching it?”

Wei Huo knew that players had an automatic translation system. The word ‘Epic’ would be translated according to each player’s understanding, and the other party’s answer would be translated into a language that they could understand.

However, Wei Huo had not expected that the Wild Giant would scratch its head and say, “Are you asking how I came to own this imposing field? That is because I found an ancient scroll of the humans and had an epiphany after reading it a few hundred times. That’s how I obtained the imposing field.”

Wei Huo was speechless.

What the hell is that? An epiphany? Are you the protagonist? Did you level up by having an epiphany?

Wei Huo asked, “Which ancient scroll? Do you have it?”

“Yes, yes…” The Wild Giant hesitated. Moments later, he said, “You’re an expert at human science. You might gain a special understanding after reading this ancient scroll. Please tell me if you have a new understanding!”

Wei Huo nodded. “Absolutely!”

The Wild Giant immediately clenched his fists and threw a punch at the snow. His terrifying fist smashed into the snow and a shockwave spread out instantly. In a moment, the entire snowy mountain trembled and countless snow fell.

It was an avalanche!

The Wild Giant’s punch had triggered a terrifying avalanche. The moment the Wild Giant threw a punch, Wei Huo felt the imposing field it was emitting. This was another use of the imposing field.

It turned out that not only could the imposing field suppress the enemy’s strength, but it could also shrink and increase one’s defense. In addition, it could concentrate on increasing the destructive power of the fist.

The avalanche caused a huge pile of snow to rush down. Lightning Qi surrounded Wei Huo’s body at the foot of the mountain. The accumulated snow all vaporized into steam.

The Wild Giant did not have much of a reaction. From its point of view, the avalanche was like a wave at the edge of a river. It even advanced through the avalanche and arrived at the cave. As the snow was scattered everywhere, a huge cave appeared on one side of the mountain.

Wei Huo’s eyes lit up. Could an Epic-ranked cultivation technique be hidden in the cave?

Was it a spirit-refining technique?

The Wild Giant could not enter the cave, but it could reach in with its hand and use the imposing field to drive anything inside. This time, it reached out with its hand and then pulled it back. There was a huge block of ice in its hand.

In a moment, the ice melted and evaporated, leaving only a thick book in its hands.

The Wild Giant approached Wei Huo and opened its hand. A book floated in front of Wei Huo.

The Wild Giant had already reached the Epic stage after reading this book a few hundred times. Given my intelligence, I probably won’t even need to read it a few hundred times. Epic stage, here I come!

Wei Huo grabbed the book but was dumbfounded a moment later.

The words ‘The Legend of Normal People’s Cultivation’ were on the cover. The two small words ‘First Volume’ were also on the cover, and every word seemed complicated. Wei Huo hurriedly opened the book and saw a catalog and some familiar content.

Wei Huo was speechless.

Before he could speak, the Wild Giant spoke first. “This must be a human cultivation technique. As long as we understand this cultivation technique and cultivate it to the extreme, we will be able to shatter the void and ascend to become humans!”

Wei Huo was speechless.

Ascend to become humans? You probably don’t know that humans are much weaker than you guys.

The Wild Giant said, “The reason humans disappeared must be because they all ascended into the human realm. After all, a heaven-defying cultivation technique like this can only be sold for 59 yuan. This means that humans are a race of cultivators. There might be Epic-ranked creatures everywhere on the streets. That’s the only way to explain why they can create buildings that can’t be destroyed. They can even fly into the sky without wings. Despite not having gills, they can also dive into the deep sea. They can even move mountains and fill seas to change the landscape.”

Wei Huo finally understood that humans were already considered gods by the snowmen. To them, humans were omnipotent, just like they were in the eyes of Demonic Ants.

Soon, the Wild Giant lifted two huge stones and smashed them in front of Wei Huo. It then said, “Master, these are the notes I took after reading this ancient scroll. Please take a look and tell me if anything is wrong.”

Wei Huo glanced at the huge rock, which was over 10 meters in diameter, and looked at the dense runes on it.

I can’t f*cking understand them!

It seemed like the automatic translation system only translated languages and not words. How could I understand the language of the snowmen?

Wei Huo glanced at it and focused his attention on ‘The Legend of Normal People’s Cultivation’ in his hand. He then asked, “Don’t you guys find it weird? Based on your conjectures, humans have huge bodies. Why are the ancient scrolls so small? Doesn’t that go against your speculations?”

The Wild Giant said, “I’m guessing that humans must have used the power of space technology. After all, there were too many scrolls in the era of mankind. If all of them had been manufactured, it would have been impossible to keep them. That’s why we used space technology to shrink the ancient scrolls. However, this technology was lost, so we can’t magnify the ancient scrolls.”

Wei Huo was speechless.

It seemed like every creature had a powerful imagination. What would you do if you encountered a real human?

However, the time halt would definitely last a long time. It might even last tens of thousands of years, so it would be meaningless to think about such a long period.

Wei Huo held ‘The Legend of Normal People’s Cultivation’ in his hand and said with certainty, “This ancient book is not complete yet. In my opinion, there are at least 11 books left. This book describes how mortals cultivate to the Immortal Realm. If you can accumulate 12 books, you will be able to obtain the complete cultivation method to become an Immortal!”
