Sanctuary Starfield Journey

Qingyan immediately retrieved the Giant Realm from the stone altar. The Giant Realm emitted a faint glow, emanating a subtle warning: "Only one person can escape." However, Qingyan paid little attention and charged towards Huo Min.

But then, Qingyan's foot slipped, the ground softened, and his right foot sank in. Unwilling to succumb, Qingyan frantically summoned Bai Meng to attack forward, shattering all potentially dangerous soil. Bai Meng also roamed near Baishan, continuously carrying out their mission to deliver soil to Shuqing. Meanwhile, Qingyan, riding the largest Bai Meng—Bai Meng Shanjiu—was heading towards Huo Min, whom he had longed for day and night.

Qingyan raised his hand to touch the words "Wait for me, I'll be right back," but was swallowed up by the surging white dreams behind him. His hand remained raised empty, grasping at the words with resentment.

"Why? Is even the spiritual power I trust most hindering me?"

Black energy surged around Bai Meng, gradually transforming the pure white phantom into a pure black nightmare. Luo Min witnessed this and immediately rushed forward to scoop Qing Yan up, but the Evil King of Dreams constantly hindered him: "What do you think you're doing? Can't you just let him rest for a while?" Luo Min roared, "You're just spiritual energy after all! You don't understand him!"

"I am Qingyan." Qingyan and the Evil King of the Dream spoke at the same time, as if they were meant to be one.

Luo Min shook his head in disbelief, but ultimately chose to believe.

Qingyan said, "Take me away, take me to a place where no one knows me, and then give this to Disuyi. This is the only way out; a young man should be allowed to live." Luo Min knew his character well, nodded, and chose to keep his promise, taking him to a very remote place.

Luo Min channeled his spiritual energy, drawing some of the strange dream away. A massive screen gradually formed around them, enveloping the two of them.

Watching Luo Min gradually disappear into the distance, Qing Yan fell alone into the well, embracing the ghostly dream. Meanwhile, Luo Min built a clock tower, using the ghostly dream to create a door and key for it. He then erected a sign with the key beneath it, inscribed with the words: "This place is Meng Di, meaning 'dreaming of Ti Su Yi,' the resting place of Qing Yan, one of the original seven. If you wish, please help guard it until Ti Su Yi returns."

This sign was later discovered by Alfre, who was willing to take responsibility, since his surname "Dongfang" originated from the "Dongfang Qiming" of the original seven. Wild grass grew over the area, and the surrounding amusement parks were created by Luo Min to make up for Qingyan's childhood regrets, gradually evolving into a deep dream within endless evolution.

Luo Min returned to Huo Min and told Ti Suyi everything, but Ti Suyi didn't believe it and couldn't accept it no matter what.

Gradually, Luo Min and the others died, but Ti Suyi remained forever young through weathering, accompanying generation after generation of Dongfang Qiming's descendants as they grew up, and establishing three mainstream surnames: "Dongfang," "Qing," and "Yan."

One day, Ti Suyi learned of Mengdi's whereabouts by chance. She silently tattooed a black cat—Black Pattern Lord—on her inner thigh, a symbol of deception. Then she waited for countless people caught in danger, hoping to bring them a way out, because she knew this was a missed opportunity, and she didn't deserve to leave.

After an unknown period of time, the Giant Rift stopped expanding, and Tisuyi built Shallow Memory Village, living on the very edge of the Giant Rift, year after year.

Tisuyi looked at the shocked group with a slight smile, but the collapse behind them forced them to stop. Inva, who was leaning against the edge of Huomin City, also fell along with the place he had just saved, turning into rift energy.

"Just keep running, towards that unpredictable yet predetermined future."

Tisuyi exhausted her last bit of spiritual power, transforming herself into a gentle breeze that softly caressed everyone, urging them forward.

Qinglan wanted to hug her, but his efforts were in vain. He remained silent as Yan Fuxue pulled him away, passively heading towards tomorrow.

What will tomorrow bring? At this rate, the Max Rift will be gone tomorrow, Black Mountain will vanish, and the Max Rift will be a mere shell of its former self. The rules don't give them a chance to stop, and those who came before them have given them a chance to live.

……

Qinglan saw the approaching edge of the colossal rift behind him, then looked ahead at Mobei, who was running desperately towards hope. He exchanged a glance with Yan Fuxue, who knew what he was about to do, so she simply nodded, then raised her hand, gathering the last bit of ice in her palm to create a final ice wall around Mobei. Seeing this, Qinglan immediately untied the colossal rift from his neck and threw it to Mobei, then shouted, "Mobei! Turn around!"

Mo Bei turned around in confusion and saw the Giant Realm Ze flying towards him. Startled, his hand trembled and he failed to catch it. Before landing, Qing Lan fired two notes. One hit the Giant Realm Ze, causing it to fall into Mo Bei's hands. The other hit the ice wall, striking the very spot where Yingju City Ruins had stood, propelling the ice wall forward.

Mo Bei released his mental energy, only to have it suddenly converted into rift energy. He couldn't help but lament the injustice of the world; even rift energy could be converted into mental energy. Mo Bei watched helplessly as the last of the native inhabitants fell into the abyss. They weren't originally part of the group; it was all due to being "caught in a crisis."

Qinglan's body was being torn apart, constantly being converted into rift energy. Qinglan forced a smile: "It doesn't hurt that much, I don't feel anything... Yan Fuxue, if it hurts, you can hold my hand." Yan Fuxue replied: "Same here." Qinglan took her hand, which hadn't yet been converted, and looked into Yan Fuxue's eyes. The words she was about to say were swallowed back. In the last moment of her life, she quietly gazed at each other, and then both of them turned into rift energy, emanating into the universe. Yu Yanqing watched the two strands of rift energy suddenly increase, and then suddenly calm down. As the emitted rift energy decreased, she knew that the last strand of rift energy in the Great Rift was about to be revealed, and what happened inside remained unknown, unknown to anyone.
