Ye Chuan did not know how long he had been walking in the vast expanse.
He had left the Hong Meng Tree and walked into the depths of the vast expanse, searching, searching for the meaning of life...
Until one day, he had finally reached the end of the vast expanse.
There was no path ahead, just like his path had no direction.
The end of the vast expanse was the past.
He saw that behind the barrier of nothingness was his world. The former Boundless Time Continent and the former Realm of Divine Origin were both reappearing at the end of the world. If he continued walking, he would return to his past reincarnation and live on for generations to come.
Ye Chuan stopped.
"Has my Dao... reached the end?"
He muttered softly in his heart. He lowered his head and looked at his palm. What he saw in his palm was the world that belonged to him.
That world where all the faces existed. Those faces in his memories had not come back to life in the end. He had not found a way to revive them...
Could it be that there was really no other way?
"No, there must be a way!"
Ye Chuan suddenly raised his head. His eyes were resolute.
He resolutely turned around and walked back to the vast expanse of the tree...
He saw a figure under the tree. It was a young man sitting on a round plate under the tree. His appearance was exactly the same as Ye Chuan's!
"You've come." Under the tree, the man looked at Ye Chuan slowly walking over and smiled. His expression was amiable.
Ye Chuan was not surprised. Instead, he silently walked in front of the man. He looked at him and slowly sent out a divine thought.
"You've come..."
"I've waited for you here for countless years. Your return at this moment has already exceeded my expectations." The man smiled faintly.
Whether it was his tone or his actions, the man was exactly the same as Ye Chuan. It was as if he was Ye Chuan's clone.
However, at this moment, Ye Chuan under the tree still had the appearance of a young man with black hair. He was full of vitality. On the other hand, the Ye Chuan who had returned had a head full of white hair. He looked old, as if he had reached the end of his life...
"After countless years, I've returned to this place."
In his mind, Ye Chuan showed a sense of relief that he had not felt for a long time.
Under the tree, two people represented two different opinions and two different attitudes.
In the past, Ye Chuan had come to this tree. When he left, he left behind a clone, which represented a different attitude. As for his true self, he continued to explore the depths of the Vast Expanse in search of a second path.
Unfortunately, he had never been able to find the second path. Even after traveling through the Vast Expanse, he hadn't been able to find it.
There was only one path left for him, and on the way back, his life was slowly fading away.
At this moment, the subordinate's doppelganger's life force condensed, and a world appeared within its body — the Boundless Time Continent!
At this moment, Ye Chuan's life force was slowly flowing into the world within his body, using the endless life force to nourish that world. This was her final choice!
"My path has come to an end, and the universe is boundless. Since fate won't allow me to find another way to revive the world in my body, then I will turn into the source of life and revive the lives in that world one by one …" Ye Chuan murmured softly on the round disc, and his voice gradually weakened. .
At this moment, nearly half of his endless life force had passed away. His body emitted the gray color of death, and he looked like a withered corpse … using his endless life force in exchange for the revival of a world!
"My mission has come to an end …" The white-haired Ye Chuan looked at the young Ye Chuan, a happy smile on his face.
There was also a world within his body, a world that Elder Painting had entrusted to him.
Regardless of whether it was the Boundless Time Continent or the world within the painting, Ye Chuan could not let them down. Thus, his two doppelgangers each had their own world.
As he spoke, the white-haired Ye Chuan also sat down cross-legged in the void.
On the tree, a branch swayed, and a flower fell from the Primordial Tree. It landed below the white-haired Ye Chuan, and offered him a seat.
Inside him, the world within the painting continued to rotate, unchanging through the endless years. The only thing that remained was the endless cycle of life.
"Thank you …" he said softly.
He spoke softly to the Primordial Tree.
"You're welcome. I hope I can help you." The gentle voice never changed. The Primordial Tree gently waved its branches, sending the white-haired Ye Chuan off as he sat on the flower and floated towards the depths of the Vast Expanse.
"If there comes a day when I wake up again, I hope we can meet again …"
His muttered words were like fallen leaves in the wind, drifting to an unknown place.
The white-haired Ye Chuan slowly closed his eyes, and allowed the flower beneath him to carry him to every place in the Vast Expanse.
He would not die, and would only fall into an endless slumber. He would use his body to silently protect the world within the painting within his body …
Under the tree.
The young Ye Chuan silently watched the white-haired Ye Chuan leave.
Who was the doppelganger, who was the main body … It had long been unclear.
The one who left was Ye Chuan, who had fulfilled his promise to Elder Painting. He would silently protect the world in the painting and the lives in that world in the endless years of time.
The one who stayed was the Ye Chuan who wanted to revive all the faces in his memories. But the path he wanted to walk was completely different.
The first path allowed him to live, but he would only be able to sleep for the endless years. There would be no emotions, no life and death, only endless loneliness … For the sake of a promise, he would not regret it.
The second path was the one Ye Chuan had no choice but to walk!
"Are you sure you want to walk down this path?"
In the Vast Expanse, a gust of wind blew, causing the branches of the Primordial Tree to rustle. It was like the wind chimes of one's hometown, stirring one's heart.
"Even though my life is endless, there is no one by my side. All the familiar faces have remained in my memories. This kind of life is lonely … I have already been alone for millions of years, and I no longer want to be alone," Ye Chuan said softly, his eyes lifeless.
His life was rapidly flowing into the world within his body, nourishing that world — the mountains and rivers were revived, the rivers were filled with spring, all living things grew, and all living things had spirit.
Everything came back to life as Ye Chuan's endless life force surged in.
And those faces, under the nourishment of Ye Chuan's life, gradually gained life and soul.
"Is this your final choice …?" The Primordial Tree's voice was filled with only sighs, only sighs.
"This is my choice …"
Ye Chuan revealed a smile that came from the bottom of his heart. As he felt the faces in his body continuously revive, he slowly closed his eyes. The aura of death came and wrapped around his body.
Only the world in the deepest part of his body, after receiving the endless life, had finally turned from a world of death into a world with life.
Those faces in his memories had all come alive. Every face …
But among those faces, there was always one person missing.
"I am willing to use my life in exchange for your eternal life …"
