Alien Paradise.

Chapter 404 What’s left behind
After the iron gate was blown open, a group of people walked into the cave. There was almost no change here compared to fifteen years ago. The cave was still cold and damp, and the sound of dripping water could be heard everywhere.

"I wanted to ask before, what happened after Wei Mi appeared?" Chao Yang asked as he walked, "From the moment I was covered by the green light, I lost my ability to perceive the outside world. When I woke up, I had returned to fifteen years later."

The only people present at the time, apart from him, Elodie and Cocomochi, was the little girl Jiaya who was unconscious. Only the God of Hidden Mist could witness the subsequent changes.

"The part of the evil god that entered the world disappeared, Vanrick Yus died, and your bodies fell to the ground with you, losing consciousness. At that time, I realized that these bodies were probably just borrowed temporarily. Not only that, the evil god also left two things behind. One is the heart of the hunting god, and the other... you will see it when you arrive."

En Kui was surprised, "You never mentioned this to us..."

"Because that thing cannot be touched by mortal bodies. Even I would feel burning and twisted if I got close to it." Shadow explained, "This is also the reason why I sealed the cave... Everything related to the evil god must be treated with caution."

Distorted? Chaoyang twitched his lips. It couldn't be some weird thing.

At this time, Shiyin popped up and said, "No matter what it is, we must get it!"

"Are you excited again?"

"This is for your own good!" Shi Yin said dissatisfiedly, "Remember you asked me before, what is the sacred fire? Now I can answer you - in a sense, that heart is the sacred fire of the hunter god."

"What? But isn't that its relic?" Chaoyang asked in surprise.

"You're right to think so." The slime climbed onto his head. "The divine fire, divine fire, doesn't it mean that it can continue to shine and illuminate others after death? Just like the God of Knowledge, he can be made into a universal machine after death, which is another kind of immortality. When I saw that heart, I knew how to express it. When you decide how to present yourself after your demise, the divine fire will be ignited. Together with the previous kingdom of God...you are qualified to be regarded as a real god. Of course...it's still the lowest kind."

Anyway, in Shiyin's mouth, the ancient gods are always supreme, and Chaoyang is too lazy to refute.

However, he still felt a complex emotion rising from the bottom of his heart.

After tasting it carefully, he found that there was resistance and frustration in it.

Do all gods exist like this?

Born because of people's wishes, as soon as it came into being, it had to think about what shape it would take after death... If it didn't even think about this, it wouldn't even be qualified to be a god. Thinking of the spinal cord ice flower buried under the gray hill mine and the black heart that was still chasing its prey, he felt sick.

As the saying goes, who cares about the flood after death? Although he does not reject helping others, he does not want to be made into a first-class strange device after his death and continue to be controlled by others.

"Then this god is not worthy!"

"I knew you would say that." Shi Yin sneered, "How can you help me take back the rest of my body if you don't get all the power of the gods? Now you have a chance to exert your power without igniting the divine fire! If it is really something left by Wei Mi, maybe you can use it as a simulated divine fire..."

"The divine fire can be faked?" Chaoyang was shocked, "Are you planning to deceive the whole world?"

"What are you trying to deceive?" It was full of disdain. "The first god came before the world, and the world is not as big as the first god. What's more, there is an existence inside the first god that you call the world. Why should I deceive it? Just understand it this way. The divine fire is a relic. It's not impossible for you to use the hunter's heart as your own divine fire. It's just that your natures are not compatible, and the power of the kingdom of God is also very different. Using it to ascend to godhood will only weaken your own power. The first god is a being far superior to the later god. Anything he left behind is more powerful than your relics, so it can naturally be used as a divine fire."

That makes sense... "——No way, you're talking nonsense!" Chaoyang snorted, "Will I still be made into a strange structure after I die? Besides, I have no interest in guessing riddles, and I don't get along with the riddles. Are you sure you can become stronger by doing this?"

"You are finally smarter, but your knowledge is a little pitiful. Who would dare to touch the things left by the evil god? If you leave a will to remind people, the descendants will be eager to seal it up. As for guessing the riddle... I can only say that you know nothing about the power of the gods. Don't worry, even the weakest gods are not something that the gods of the future can touch. Using it as a sacred fire is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you."

"That's all exaggerated. Well, if it's really as the God of the Hidden Mist said, I'll try my best."

When Chaoyang said this, he couldn't help but glance at the other three gods with some concern.

Have they already thought about what they will look like after they die?

Arriving at the bottom of the cave, Chaoyang discovered that there was an extra doorway on the metal wall to the south, which meant that they could enter the ruins without having to pass through the waterlogged area.

"I discovered this passage when I was leaving, and it seems that it can only be opened from the inside." The God of Hidden Mist had to bend down to walk into this entrance which was only two and a half meters high.

It seemed as if they had been fighting in there just a second ago, but this time they came in fifteen years later. The light tubes on the warehouse wall still emitted a steady light, as if they would never go out. The area they entered this time was an airtight room, but the sealed doors seemed to be damaged. After walking along the aisle for about five minutes, they arrived in front of Storage Warehouse No. 1 again.

The room was filled with glowing green light, just like a radiation scene; the strange thing was that the edge of the green light was almost flush with the door, and there was not a single trace of it reflected onto the corridor.

"This light is emitted by the artifact left by the evil god." Shadow said, "Do you want to go in and take a look? Although it's not very comfortable to be shining on you, you can still hold on for a minute or two."

Now that I'm here, of course I have to go in.

Chaoyang took a deep breath and stepped over the threshold, mentally prepared to endure the burning and twisting feeling. However, surprisingly, he did not feel any discomfort. When he was inside the door, the light actually began to fade and retreated little by little!
The others looked at this incredible scene and exclaimed in amazement.

Only the God of Hidden Mist sighed, "...It is so."

Thousands of glass jars in the warehouse remained motionless, just as they were when I first saw them.

At the end of the warehouse, Chaoyang saw three skeletons.

The most severely twisted one was undoubtedly Vanrick, his jaw was completely dislocated, and his mouth was still wide open. The remaining two were naturally Barif and Baili.

At this moment, the green light has shrunk to only half a meter, and its source is a small hexagonal cone, which is light green and looks like some high-quality gemstone. The heart fell into Vanrick's dry bones. There is no trace of the causal mechanism on it, but it is still beating slowly today.

"No way!" Shiyin suddenly screamed.

"Don't scare me!" Chaoyang punched the top of his head, "What's wrong?"

"This thing is not an ordinary strange structure... It is a small part of the authority of the first god!" Shi Yin said in disbelief, "What on earth did you do to Wei Mi!?"
