After your sigh, you placed a mark on the five ancient immortals, instructing them to be on high alert in a few days to prevent anyone from taking advantage of any weakness.
"That's good, it saves us from explaining and from being questioned."
[A few days later, as you predicted, Bei Chenguang was discovered by five ancient immortals.]
Their arguments escalated into a fight, and ultimately, Beichenguang was also sealed away.
[This was something Xiao Yelin told you later: "They said that Brother Beichen needs to calm down for a hundred years, and we shouldn't let him act rashly again, otherwise it will be a disaster for our entire world."]
Xiao Yelin sighed, "Brother Beichen... he's already gone mad with his cultivation. How could it have come to this?"
You suddenly asked him, "What if something also happened to Nangong Meng?"
Xiao Yelin: "..."
He remained silent for a long while, then gave a wry smile: "Then I can understand him."
In 7405, Beichen Guang was released.
You found him at Jiang Yueli's grave.
He cried, "Father Yun, what should I do? What should I do?"
You feel like you've done something wrong.
However, if we don't stop him, all we'll give him in the end is a false and happy expectation that lasts for a hundred years while the power field of calamity dissipates.
A hundred years from now, he will face an even deeper despair, which may even lead to the end of the entire Yuantian Realm!
Everyone else will die!
Is it to subject him to endless torment, or to let a glimmer of hope turn into utter despair?
"Maybe it's me; I was wrong from the start."
"I was so stupid, really."
"I only know that once Bei Chenguang loses his potential, fate will likely abandon him, leaving him to live the life of an ordinary person."
"I never imagined that fate would be so ruthless, indirectly forcing Jiang Yueli to strive harder by driving him to his death..."
"He meant well, but ended up doing something wrong."
"It made him endure the rest of his life in agony, seeing a glimmer of hope yet being unable to pursue it..."
You could only try to persuade Bei Chenguang: "Let's wait a little longer, let's wait a little longer, hope will eventually come."
"You can choose to sleep first, forgetting the pain and the passage of time in your sleep."
"The mastermind behind those plundering beasts can't stay here forever. Perhaps in a million years, perhaps in tens of millions of years, they will leave."
"You can continue your journey then, but you'll need to wait a little while, close your eyes, and then open them again."
[Bei Chenguang closed his eyes.]
He leaned quietly against Jiang Yueli's grave, as if forever.
You left.
[Year 7629.]
[The next eleven days or so.]
A voice rang out.
"What are you guys doing?!"
[The entire Yuan Tian Realm was destroyed. Except for you, all beings below the True Immortal level were torn apart in an instant. You were also severely injured.]
You chuckled: "Ha."
[The past period wasn't long; you might have thought it would drag on for tens of thousands of years, but it was only delayed by a little over 1,000 years.]
[The white jasmine has arrived.]
[You returned to your true form, leaving your mark, allowing the five ancient immortals to unleash their full power and eliminate the leader of the calamity beasts.]
Let's see if we can give them a chance to postpone it for another 100 years.
You predicted it again.
[Success!]
[Baihe did not reappear until the very end of this new future chapter.]
[It seems he only suddenly remembered, more than ten days later, that there was a Yuantian Realm that hadn't responded at all.]
[When they came to check the situation, they found that the leader of the beast raiders had been sealed away. It meant that the extra hundreds of years they had waited were all for nothing, as if they had been toyed with. That's why they were enraged and took action.]
[But you can change that future now, letting five ancient immortals kill the leader of the calamity beasts.]
When Bai He returned, he found the power field of calamity beginning to dissipate. He then gained a bit more patience, deciding to first toy with those chosen ones elsewhere, and then return to the Yuan Tian Realm a hundred years later to formally reap the rewards.
[...]
You woke up Beichenguang.
He looked at you groggily: "Father Yun, how long have I been asleep?"
"Not long, only a little over two hundred years."
You smiled and said, "In just 100 years, you will be able to leave the Yuantian Realm and travel beyond the universe."
【"real!!!?"】
You nod and explain it to him.
Bei Chenguang was overjoyed, but also a little resentful: "Father Yun, you shouldn't have woken me up so quickly. Now I have to wait another 100 years. You should have let me sleep a little longer."
"Just adjust your mindset," you say casually. "Stop acting like you're dying all the time. Take it easy, have a good laugh. You don't want her to see you looking so gloomy, do you?"
[Year 7645.]
The power field of calamity is thinning day by day. Although the change is extremely subtle, even a True Immortal's eyesight can detect this slow progress.
In 7701, you announced that you would be going into seclusion to break through to the True Immortal realm.
[You created an opportunity without calling upon any true immortals or those clever individuals.]
[Surrounded only by foolish women like Gong Ying.]
[These silly girls patted their chests and promised to protect you.]
[Then you faked a failed breakthrough in front of them, completely transforming yourself into the Dao, merging with heaven and earth, and vanishing from the world, dying a complete and utter death.]
Afterwards, you concealed all your presence and hid in a lower realm.
In the future, you will see them cry, see them break down, and all you can do is silently apologize.
[Jumping to the future will cause you to disappear from the present timeline and not reappear until the future. If you don't fake your death beforehand, Bai He might become aware of your existence and wonder why he didn't discover you.]
Therefore, the only way for you to clear yourself of all suspicion is to "die."
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"In the depths of that lower realm, you murmured."
"Actually, I didn't die. On the contrary, I want to live on, to live until the future when you all die."
"I must live... As long as I live, there is hope."
"Beichenguang has no hope of finding the power of the past, but I can, I—can—do—it!"
"I want to jump to the future, I want to escape that destruction!"
"For you, what follows will not be destruction, but merely a small dream."
"Perhaps when you open your eyes again, you will find yourself in the future, millions or tens of millions of years from now."
"I will be there to welcome you...to the future."
"I want you to jump safely into the future too, only you'll jump farther than I will, that's all."
