Inside the cave, Shen Qian asked Bo Qi how long it would take for her to arrive if the isolation of the "Sea of Learning" were lifted.
Boqi didn't know the exact answer either, but it told Shenqian that it might be so fast that there wouldn't be enough time to react.
I knew from that moment before I sank that this wasn't really a choice at all.
All he could do was try his best to save everyone's lives.
No matter how selfish he was before he drowned, he couldn't possibly drag seven or eight hundred thousand people down with him, especially since his friends, partners, and lovers were among them...
Shen Qian had no confidence in resisting her, but that didn't mean he was going to surrender.
After gaining control of the sacred artifact, he could easily travel to any corner of the Nine Seas, so he wanted to first go to the place where the Buddha had fallen, hoping to find some surprises.
Even if not, at least it distanced them from the "sea of learning," giving ordinary martial artists more time to escape the "sea of knowledge."
"Do you think I can't help either?" Tantai Qin asked softly.
"Yes, so don't stay."
Shen Qian tightened his grip on Tantai Qin's hand and said seriously, "Don't worry about me. Even in the worst-case scenario, I won't really die... You probably don't know, but I actually have another body outside, where my other half of my soul resides."
Tantai Qin remained silent for a long time until Shen Qian stared at her again, at which point Tantai Qin nodded, "Okay."

Today, having seen countless landscapes, Shen Qian is no longer the boy from the small town he once was. He may not be as righteous as Wu Wei, but he also has something he wants to uphold and protect.
Tantai Qin's agreement to leave undoubtedly put an end to her last worry before she died.
Although Shen Qian knew that if he perished in the "Sea of Learning," it would be impossible for that clone to reach the level of the original body again, and the final outcome would probably be no different, this was at least a thought that could comfort others.
"Actually, I'm quite curious too, and I want to see what she looks like up close..."
Chen Qian ignored the fact that Tantai Qin couldn't understand, muttered something, and then stopped, "We're here, this is it."
Below the two, a massive, deep trench came into view, stretching for thousands of miles, like a shocking scar deeply rooted in the depths of this "Sea of Learning." Even though the sinking had altered the entire environment of the Sea of Learning, it had not been able to cause the slightest impact on it.
