He became the White-Haired Evil God after wearing the Seven Curses Rings.

Hearing Xie Ling's complaint, Xie Bai slowly turned his head and said with some confusion.

"Is there a problem with that?"

"There's a big problem!"

Xie Ling shouted with her last bit of strength.

"Time seems to stand still in this mausoleum. To walk around here, I have to constantly expend energy fighting against this frozen time, which feels no different from stepping into a swamp!"

After shouting, Xie Ling immediately became exhausted and could only stand there, supporting herself with her scepter and panting heavily.

Listening to her explanation, Xie Bai said thoughtfully.

"Oh, so you're tired now?"

Xie Ling glanced at her.

"This isn't a matter of whether I'm tired from walking. If I weren't the Time Witch, with enough patience for time and space, any half-baked person would have been assimilated into this awful place long ago."

"You think everyone's like you, compensating for a lack of skill with numbers? You clearly don't have as much control over time and space as I do, but you still manage to..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xie Ling suddenly felt her body being lifted up. After a dizzying spin, her legs instinctively clamped onto something soft.

Looking down, she realized that in front of her was a head of smooth, white hair, cool to the touch and very comfortable.

"Alright, sit tight."

Xie Bai shifted her body slightly, reminding Xie Ling on her shoulder.

Only then did Xie Ling realize that Xie Bai had just picked her up and carried her on his shoulder.

Looking at the expansive view before her, twice as wide, Xie Ling was momentarily at a loss.

A moment later, she suddenly realized that this seemed to be a close encounter between herself and Xie Bai.

Her legs were resting on either side of the other person's head, and the other person was holding them tightly with their hands. She could clearly feel the soft, delicate touch of the other person's small hands.

As for the upper body, it leans against the other person's head, and with a slight bend, one can smell a faint fragrance from their hair.

"Ugh...!"

In an instant, a blush spread across Xie Ling's face, reaching all the way to her ears before gradually stopping.

Was it just a casual complaint, or did she really have feelings for me...?

Just as Xie Ling was lost in thought, she suddenly heard Xie Bai say something.

"In that case, I will proceed as quickly as possible. During this time, please pay close attention and remember to use your own strength to avoid the spatial turbulence that may arise during the operation."

"Huh?"

Xie Ling was suddenly taken aback.

"Wait, what did you say... Ugh!!!"

Before Xie Ling could finish speaking, Xie Bai rushed towards his destination at top speed.

For her, the ability to freeze time seemed to offer no resistance whatsoever, allowing her to move freely within the mausoleum.

Because of the excessively rapid movement within the frozen time, each time the frozen time is broken, a small spacetime turbulence is created, much like the wake created when moving in water.

This was nothing to Xie Bai, but it was a bit dangerous for Xie Ling, who had delicate skin.

The Time-Space Witch's unique abilities allow her to ignore the random teleportation caused by time-space turbulence, but this does not mean she can ignore the physical damage inherent in time-space turbulence.

Especially these small and frequent spacetime turbulence events, which can cause death or serious injury to anyone who gets hit.

Fortunately, Xie Ling had seen her share of ups and downs, so she was able to handle this kind of danger.

However, Xie Bai's speed was so fast that she felt carsick, which constantly distracted her from counteracting the spatial turbulence.

Xie Ling no longer had time to keep track of how much time had passed.

All she knew was that when they finally arrived at their destination, Xie Bai had already put her on the ground, and she was dry heaving against the floor.

After recovering, she managed to stand up and looked at the destination Xie Bai had brought her to.

This appears to be the true core area of ​​the mausoleum.

In the very center, a magnificent crystal coffin stands suspended.

The person in the crystal coffin must be the owner of this mausoleum. She looks very beautiful, but in Xie Ling's eyes, she seems just so-so.

Before she could even ask, she saw Xie Bai reach the top of the crystal coffin, remove the core item that held the mausoleum together, and then stuff it into her arms.

【The Anchor of Eternity】

This item was originally a fixed item that needed to be collected as part of the unlocking conditions for the Gluttony Authority, but since Xie Bai skipped the remaining unlocking conditions, it was left behind.

Xie Ling was momentarily stunned as she looked at the constantly spinning blue-gold instrument in her arms.

"This is…?"

"This is for you."

Xie Bai put one hand on his hip and said.

"Aren't you leaving soon? I figured I wouldn't have much time then, so I'm taking advantage of the free time now to prepare for you."

"So, how does this trophy rank compared to all the worlds you've been to before?"

Listening to her explanation, Xie Ling looked down at the Eternal Anchor in her hand.

She skimmed through the remaining historical information and confirmed that it was a legacy left behind by a top civilization that completely controlled its own world. It was a legendary creation that could anchor her forever in the sacred timeline.

Although it cannot directly provide immediate combat power, the fact that it can be applied to the Holy Timeline is enough to place it among the top ranks.

Xie Ling looked at the farewell gift prepared for her and didn't know how to respond for a moment.

She does indeed have even more amazing treasures hidden away, but this was a gift personally given to her by the other party, so it cannot be compared to this one in terms of significance.

But soon, she suddenly realized a problem.

"So what's the point of bringing me here? It seems like there's no difference between you coming here and going back by yourself?"

Seeing that Xie Ling had realized this, Xie Bai tilted his head slightly.

"Hmm... because of the sense of participation?"

"..."

Xie Ling's eyes immediately turned cold.

If it doesn't matter whether she comes here or not, then what about all the suffering she endured before?

Will it leave you with lasting and beautiful memories?

But it's not exactly beautiful... well, actually there's a part that's quite nice.

But this cannot deny that she suffered most of the time.

Just as Xie Ling was preparing to criticize the other party, the entire mausoleum suddenly shook violently.

"Boom! B ...

Xie Ling was taken aback.

"Wait? Is this a sign that the mausoleum's core has been removed and it's about to collapse? Um..."

Xie Ling was about to ask Xie Bai for help when she realized that he had already run off into the distance.

"Go for it! I'll be waiting for you at the finish line. Remember to hurry, otherwise the spatial collapse might be a little dangerous for your small frame."

"..."

Xie Ling fell silent.

The next second, a sudden spatial annihilation erased two centimeters of her hair.

Xie Ling was startled, only to find that the other person's position had become even further away than before.

"...Wait a minute, wait for me! Don't walk so fast!!!"
