You have a choice.

Looking at the petrified butterfly in his palm, Ye Bai sighed softly.

In fact, things have been like this since the moment he awakened his talent.

Ye Bai can always be chosen.

He could choose not to be the supreme seed, he could choose not to fight the supreme demon god, he could choose to go back or not...

The era in which Ye Bai rose to power was different from the situation a hundred years ago.

A hundred years ago, humanity was on the verge of extinction, facing imminent annihilation.

Humans had no choice.

Nightmare had no choice, Tracelessness had no choice, and so did Freedom...

Ye Bai is different.

Humanity's struggle over the past century has transformed it from having no choice to having a choice.

People die on the battlefield so that no one will die later.

It's that simple.

Ye Bai put the butterfly away, watched the Taoist gradually turn to stone again, said nothing more, bowed, and turned to leave.

Xiaoyao has said everything he knows and can say.

The remaining answers are for Ye Bai to find out for himself.

The connection between Xiaoyao and the origin of the upper world is too deep; it will take some time to sever this connection.

As for Ye Bai's matter, Xiaoyao cannot get too involved.

Otherwise, involving the origin of the upper world would be entirely beneficial.

No one can help Ye Bai with this matter.

He can only rely on himself.

Fortunately, Ye Bai is now able to complete the final leg of his journey on his own.

He left the Abyss of Supreme Power.

Not far away, a butterfly landed on Ye Bai's shoulder, its wings fluttering slightly, as if it wanted to say something.

He wanted to persuade Ye Bai, or make some promise to Ye Bai.

Finally, the butterfly flapped its wings.

"The people you care about will survive."

This is a promise from the origin of the higher realms.

He valued Ye Bai highly and knew better than anyone else that among all the supreme experts, Ye Bai might not be the strongest, and might even be the weakest.

However, Ye Bai is the most special one.

He is not a being of this realm, and therefore has the best chance of killing the supreme demon god.

Anyone can cause trouble, but Ye Bai cannot.

This is a promise, but also a threat to the very origin of the higher realms.

If Ye Bai does not submit to the arrangements of fate, the final result will be death, many people will die.

Many people Ye Bai cares about.

Ye Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of disdain flashing across them.

Are you threatening me?

I have three supreme experts protecting me, are you threatening me?

Even Lao Tzu himself was the strongest human!

If this background were to be revealed, even the most powerful demon god would tremble!

Are you threatening me?!

Ye Bai glanced coldly at the butterfly on his shoulder and said in a cold voice,

"Don't force me to kill you now."

The butterfly glanced indifferently at Ye Bai and silently flew away.

The negotiations have completely fallen apart.

The white dog standing nearby: ......

After a moment, the white dog asked timidly,

"Brother, are you this brave now?"

I admit, I've been speaking a bit loudly these past few years...

It couldn't understand even if it racked its brains.

Why is Shura so brave!

Ye Bai, who has not yet become a true supreme powerhouse, dares to threaten Butterfly!

That's the very origin of the world from the upper realm, and it even comes with an SSS-level talent: [My Heart is Free]!

"I can't kill it."

Ye Bai chuckled softly.

"But I can kill myself!"

Ah, this...

With Ye Bai dead, the battle between the human race and the supreme demon god has been completely lost.

The day the supreme demon god succeeds will be the day the upper realm is destroyed.

The very origin of the world in the upper realm will also be destroyed.

Killing Ye Bai is tantamount to killing the Upper Realm!

That's why Ye Bai said just now, 'Don't force me to kill you now.'

White dog: ......

Both involve threatening others with their lives.

A sword that leaves no trace is held to the enemy's neck.

The Asura's sword is held to his own neck.

Is there something wrong?

The whole thing seems absurd.

But upon closer reflection, since it's an Asura, it makes sense.

After a moment of silence, the white dog could only offer a fair assessment:

As expected of you.

...

Eternal Core City.

Now is not the time to attempt the challenge; the human race has not yet entered the Eternal Tower.

Most of the NPCs here have their own lives. They come from all races and escaped the last cataclysmic disaster with the help of the Eternal Tower.

The two were walking on the street, but no one around them noticed their presence.

Strolling through the Eternal Core City, the Foolish Master casually remarked,

"No matter what he chooses, he will definitely come back."

"oh?"

Ying Yi was somewhat surprised and asked in return,

"On what grounds?"

He left half a copper coin with me.

Half a copper coin appeared at the fingertips of the foolish master, rolling between his five fingers.

With a gentle flick, the half-coin flew into the air and landed in the palm of my hand.

Looking at the copper coin in his palm, the foolish master fell silent.

Shadow One had nothing to say about the former Tower Spirit, and silently rolled his eyes.

"Look how happy you are. I've known for a while that something was off between you two."

Of course, she didn't dare say it aloud.

Well, the main reason is that I'm afraid a certain petty human supreme expert might return and find an excuse to retaliate.

Soon, Shadow One sensed that something was wrong.

The Foolish Master stood there, staring blankly at the copper coin in his palm, like a statue.

After observing for a while, Shadow One asked,

"what?"

The foolish master said with a look of astonishment,

"This isn't my half-copper coin..."
