The next day after suddenly learning the bad news about the advance investigation team, Mu Huiyue met Jing Heng of this time and space in Phoenix Mountain.

He is already over forty years old, but due to the feedback from the Beast Taming Contract, he still looks like a young man.

Unlike the simple country boy he once was, nor the lazy otaku who wore graffiti T-shirts that Mu Shuyue knew, the still young emperor was dressed in warrior clothes, with an upright figure, a solid aura, and the unmistakable majesty of a strong and superior man.

Jing Heng had a gloomy expression. Wan Tiandong stood in front of him, seemingly trying to dissuade him from doing something in a stern voice.

"Are you crazy, Jing Erliang? Even if you bring more people in, it will be a dead end. You have seen what is in there with your own eyes!"

Calling the new emperor by his old name is a capital crime of disrespect, but Wan Tiandong obviously couldn't care less.

"I'll go in by myself. Wen Yu is the crazy one. How can such a fantasy thing be possible?"

Jing Heng was unmoved, and his tone became sharper. "What do you mean by the cause and effect that connects to the future? That's just an excuse to trick us into leaving first. I won't allow her to die there. I—"

Jing Heng's voice paused, and he saw the witch priest clan who were summoned to Phoenix Mountain.

Among the people walking towards him, the one leading the way was Wen Li, whom he had met once before and who was mentioned by Wen Yu in the secret realm.

She was wearing the official ritual attire of the Phoenix Priestess.

Before they parted, Wen Yu said that if by the time he returned to the human world, Wen Li had passed the trial and became a true Phoenix Priest, then this plan that sounded like a fantasy would have the possibility of coming true.

Jing Heng's heart skipped a beat. Beside Wen Li, he saw two figures that were buried deep in his memory.

"Your Majesty." Wen Li and his three companions bowed slightly and saluted him.

"...I remember you." Jing Heng waved his hand and his eyes fell on the black-haired girl next to Wen Li.

"Mu Shu...Yue, and the messenger from the capital city of Yuzhou." Jing Heng dug out the corresponding information from his distant memory.

He remembered the strange girl he had rescued and brought home. That was the first day when the polluted beasts invaded his hometown. They fought hard all night and waited for the great witch Wen Yu to come to the rescue at dawn.

Since then, Jing Heng has never seen Mu Chuyue again. He originally thought that she had died in the defending battle that night like countless other beastmasters who died, but he didn't expect to meet her here again.

Mu Chuyue looked exactly the same as when they first met. Twenty-five years had not left the slightest trace on her. Even the capital messenger beside her was completely unchanged from before.

Even with the feedback from the Ninth Level Beast Taming Contract, it is impossible for a person to remain unchanged in twenty-five years. Mu Chuyue's situation is more like coming directly from twenty-five years ago to the present.

Such an incredible idea suddenly popped up in Jing Heng's mind. Wan Tiandong beside him also showed a surprised expression, obviously remembering who the familiar black-haired girl in front of him was.

It involves the cause and effect of time and space... Could it be that the incredible plan that Wen Yu mentioned can really be realized?

After a brief moment of surprise, Mu Liuyue finally understood why Jing Heng was in a hurry to order Wen Li to come to Phoenix Mountain.

After the advance investigation team entered the "Outer Star Sea", they encountered an impact of a large number of polluted alien beasts. The scale was more than a hundred times that of the Great Flame Beast Chaos, and included various indescribable deeply polluted individuals.

Compared with the polluting beasts in the secret realm, the beast chaos that Dayan has encountered in the past 25 years may not even be considered a vanguard.

Once the "Outer Star Sea" enters the advent period and has a stable connection point with the real world, these unimaginable huge beast tides will pour into Dayan. By then, not only the territory of Dayan, but the entire continent will be destroyed by the polluted beasts, and all living things will suffer.

This conclusion made everyone shudder. After going through hardships, Jing Heng's investigation team finally found the source of the pollution that released the Star Evil - it was an unimaginable and indescribable alien supernatural creature, a collection of chaos, able to devour time and the paradoxical points of possibility contained therein.

It was named [Eclipse Sky Evil] and possessed mythical energy, but this was not the reason for the investigation team to completely despair.

No matter how powerful the extraordinary beasts are, Dayan’s beastmasters are able to fight them, not to mention that they are also protected by the mythical patron saint [Sun Phoenix].

However, the terrifying thing about [Star Eclipse Sky Evil] comes from chaos. Everything is nothingness in front of its existence, and any means of attack can hardly really touch it.

The flame containing the power of light rules can purify the pollution of Star Evil to a certain extent, but the closer it is to the main body of [Star Eclipse Sky Evil], the lower the purification effect will be, and there is even a risk of reverse contamination.

The price of obtaining this information was that [Sun Phoenix] and [Star Eclipse Sky Evil] were deeply contaminated by the Star Evil during the confrontation in the secret realm, as well as the death of most of the court beastmasters in the investigation team.

This was a failed advance investigation. Compared to this little bit of intelligence, the investigation team was more like opening a Pandora's box of the unknown, releasing a crisis that made everyone feel desperate.

At this stage, human beastmasters have no means to deal with the characteristics of [Star Eclipse Sky Evil]. As long as the "Outer Star Sea" enters the advent period, only destruction awaits Da Yan.

Jing Heng didn't know how he managed to complete the last part of the journey. His companions disappeared one after another, and he was helpless and couldn't even make their sacrifice more valuable.

Everything is just a futile struggle before the end, and it is meaningless. Even if he accepts the sacrifice of everyone and leaves here, it is only a matter of time before Dayan is destroyed, and everyone will be swallowed up by the chaos brought by the Star Evil.

At the last moment, it was Wen Yu who stopped the rioting polluted beast and tried to send him to the exit.

Jing Heng's emotions, which were overwhelmed by despair, finally exploded. He didn't want Wen Yu to die in vain. If he had to send someone away alive, why should it be him and not Wen Yu?

Wen Yu told him an idea that seemed like a fairy tale.

Chaos is the end and nothingness of all laws of time and space. Only the cause and effect of civilization can fight against it. The current human beastmasters cannot defeat [Star Eclipse Sky Evil], so what about the future?

She has an opportunity to connect to the future, and that is Wen Li, whom she met a year ago.

Others may not know Wen Li's identity. Her talent of [Burning Blood] is the best proof of her bloodline of the witch priest clan, but Wen Yu knew from the beginning that this mysterious fellow who suddenly appeared was the successor from the future.

The beast-controlling talent of the Wuji clan, [Burning Blood], is inherited from the power of the Sun Phoenix, and contains the blood source of "light" and "fire".

This power will accumulate with the passage of time and blood. The [Burning Blood] talent displayed by Wen Li is the result of hundreds of years of accumulation. Its potential far exceeds the [Burning Blood] of Wen Yu, the great witch priest who stands at the top of this era.

The cause and effect of inheritance had already brought this opportunity to her.

Wen Yu told Jing Heng that although she couldn't defeat [Star Eclipse Sky Evil] at the moment, she could delay the catastrophe and give Dayan more time to prepare.

The Sun Phoenix, which has been deeply polluted by the Star Evil, is bound to trigger [Nirvana] and purify the pollution through rebirth.

At that time, [Nirvana] will release huge energy enough to cover the entire secret realm, and she will use her own [cause and effect] as fuel, and through the characteristics of [chaos], let the entire secret realm slide to a certain point connected in the future time and space.

Wen Li is the causal point connecting her.

Since the Wuji clan still has successors hundreds of years later, it proves that her plan was successful. At least the current Da Yan will not suffer devastation and misery when the "outer star sea" comes.

Wen Yu will stay in the secret realm and let Jing Heng find Wen Li. If she has passed the trial and become a Divine Phoenix Witch Priest, he will let her use a special sacrificial activity to activate [Burning Blood], allowing the hundreds of years of time passed down in the bloodline to gather here as a signpost for the end of the "Outer Star Sea".

This is why Jing Heng was eager to see Wen Li after leaving the secret realm.

He found it difficult to understand Wen Yu's thoughts, and even wanted to enter the secret realm again to bring her out, but after seeing Mu Chuyue with his own eyes, Jing Heng became severely shaken.

After listening to his narration, the three people who came from the future also showed expressions of surprise.

Mu Huiyue's heart beat faster. Sending the catastrophe that could not be handled at the current stage to the future, buying breathing time for the development of civilization... It really sounded like a fantasy idea.

But everything that happens in the future and the fire of Nirvana ignited on the top of Phoenix Mountain just proves that everything Wen Yu envisioned has become a reality.

Wen Li was also stunned. She didn't expect that her ancestor knew that she came from six hundred years later, and she didn't expect that she would become a signpost in this plan.

Her mind was in a mess, but the last thing she asked was what Jing Heng had said: "...What do you mean by special sacrificial activities?"

Jing Heng replied: "Ayu said that only you would know, if you were from the future where the plan was successful."

When asking this question, Wen Li already had the answer in her mind.

A sacrificial dance.

No one knew when it started, but the focus of the Wuji clan's inheritance changed. They no longer used the Trial of the Divine Phoenix, but focused on the Sacrificial Dance.

Wen Li felt very sorry about this, she preferred a strong beastmaster like her ancestor Wen Yu who was both capable of fighting and resisting. [Burning Blood] was a first-rate combat talent, and she didn't know why the way of inheritance of witch sacrifices would become a performance-based sacrificial dance.

"If the opportunity for the inheritance change is here, why is there no ancestor Wen Yu in the history of the Wuji clan...?"

Wen Li murmured, accidentally saying what was on her mind.

"What did you say?" Jing Heng's expression suddenly changed.

Upon learning that Wen Yu did not appear in the historical records of later generations, Jing Heng was angry at first, but then he suddenly understood.

"Using one's own karma as fuel... is that what you mean?"

The successful completion of this plan means that all traces of the existence of the person named [Wen Yu] in the world will be burned to ashes in the Nirvana Fire of the Sun Phoenix.

From now on, no one will remember who Wen Yu is or know what great achievements she has accomplished.

Including Jing Heng himself.

Thinking of this, the young emperor's expression became even gloomier. This was an ending even more bleak than death.

He tightly gripped the sword at his waist and made up his mind with a scorching look in his eyes.

"I won't run away like this. I want to enter the "Outer Star Sea" and see A Yu again. ”
