"It's really spectacular..."

It was as if the curtain of the entire world had been completely torn off, the darkness that had been surrounding the surroundings quickly disappeared with Duan Qing's pull, and the countless light spots that had been surrounding the surroundings also retreated into the distance of the field of vision like dissipating clouds.

, turned the entire space where Duan Qing was in into something else - white sky, white mountains, and a hazy light like a fairyland then appeared around this space, reflecting all the places in this area.

It has become the ink white that is only found in ancient paintings, and the dense mist constantly surrounds the nearby scene. The elements from this world have also returned to their respective appearances, and then used them to return to their original colors to embellish this ink painting.

Around him, the constantly rotating mist turned into colorful rivers of clouds as these light spots disappeared, passing by Duan Qing's feet one by one. He looked at this beautiful scenery, and after a while he calmly said

He uttered his own sigh: "This is..."

"What this world is really like."

He tightened his right hand, letting the thick chain that just appeared next to him sway in the endless cloud sky, and then turned his eyes to other chains of the same shape that also appeared in the clouds.

Above: "Right?"

"you you……"

Looking at the series of actions Duan Qing made, Oxon, who was still struggling, once again showed an extremely ugly expression: "How...what did you just do?"

"Why, didn't you see these things when you were at the Tallond ruins before?"

Making a gesture to the other party, Duan Qing pointed to the last remnants of the chains that disappeared in the air from time to time: "Or...actually you don't know anything at all?"

"...What are you talking about?" Oxen's eyes rolled a few times, and the energy that had been constantly surrounding him began to dissipate with his movements: "Could it be...that you saw the thread of fate?"

"Silk thread?" Duan Qing raised his head: "Are you sure these things are silk threads? The diameter is at least the size of the mouth of a bowl..."

"Why don't I see anything?" Oxen, who was floating in the air, checked his surroundings again, then reached out and tried to grab Duan Qing's clothes: "What did you do to me?"

"It seems you really can't see it."

Looking at the huge and broken chain that still extended to the opponent's chest, Duan Qing nodded with enlightenment: "Maybe this is also the setting of this world, you NPCs... ah no, even you guys

The Destiny Weaver seems unable to see everything in this world."

"You...did you see the Ring of Destiny?"

The emotions in his eyes changed many times. Oxen finally gave up the idea of ​​fighting. Then after a period of silence, he looked around here again: "Tell me... what did you see?"

"Well, I don't know how to describe it to you..." Duan Qing replied with a slight embarrassment: "After all, I don't know how the world you see now is different from what I see..."

"tell me!"

The shouting suddenly amplified, and Oxon's face became crazy again, and then in the next moment of breathing, he returned to the calm image in the normal world: "Whether it is for the Destiny Weaver or for myself, I

I have been struggling for such a long time, and even though it turned out like this in the end, I still have the right to know everything."

"Tell me what you saw." He collected his emotions again, and then said in a low voice: "On my life... please."

"...I saw white clouds and white peaks."

There was silence between each other for a while, and Duan Qing finally opened his mouth slowly: "There are also... thick chains, just like what I have seen before, some of them are very thin, similar to ordinary ones.

The hemp ropes are similar, and some are as rough as pillars..."

"……Ah."

After being stunned for a long time, Oxon put down his hand with a slight dejection. His eyes that were originally filled with expectancy gradually retreated from the directions pointed by Duan Qing, and slowly placed his hand on his constant gaze.

On the rising and falling chests, the silent tranquility gradually dissipated as the two people became silent. For a while, only the unique emptiness in the mist surrounded them, until the colorful clouds and rivers passed by Duan Qing's eyes again.

, only then did Oxen's voice full of various emotions ring in his ears again: "I have seen many poor people in my past life. Some of them are indeed not very good, and some are just bad luck.

, many efforts have come to naught due to cruel competition, or have come to naught due to some kind of accident, as if the ending of failure will eventually appear, even if they have exhausted all methods... they will still end up in the end.

He collapsed in front of the huge force."

"I have long since escaped poverty and lost my heart of compassion, and sometimes I lament their tragic fate." Speaking of this, Oxon sighed deeply: "I never thought... that this kind of ending would happen one day.

It appears on my body."

"...There is a saying among adventurers, which is don't go against the version." Duan Qing shook his head slightly: "Although you may not understand it, the situation described in this sentence... cannot break through a certain shackles.

You should also understand, right?"

"...There are indeed differences between us, child of destiny."

His eyes stayed on Duan Qing for a while, and Oxon's eyes returned to the endless void again: "Like a child born with defects, the gap between us has appeared since the beginning, this gap

It seems so huge now. Even if I am powerful enough to communicate with all elements in this space, I still cannot do what only you can do..."

"...You can choose another path." Duan Qing was silent for a while, and then replied in a low voice: "Even if you give up, your life will definitely become much better."

"Choose...hum."

Oxon, who was floating in the air, shook his head, and some heavy thoughts gradually flashed in his eyes: "Why should I choose another path? Why must I make a choice? I have been involved in countless fates in the past.

Chakou thought about this question, but in the end he could only lament the weakness of his power in the face of an unchangeable fate."

"Making a choice of destiny... is actually a sign of weakness." He paused, and a sharp light gradually flashed in his eyes: "This is the conclusion I have drawn from a life that I cannot change. Such a life... is simply

It cannot be called freedom.”

"...Is it because the power is not strong enough?" Looking at the countless chains extending into the air, Duan Qing couldn't help but sigh: "Is this your answer?"

"If the poor have enough wealth, then the poor will not choose to work hard to make money. If the principality has enough troops to rival the empire, they will not swallow their humiliation during the past period of bullying." Oxen decided.

Looking at Duan Qing's face steadily: "If you had strong enough power, you might not be so embarrassed in front of the plans of the successors of the ancient magic empire. If I had strong enough power, maybe I would

Break away from your own destiny of death and turn all your previous efforts into reality."

The outstretched hand passed through Duan Qing's body. Oxon's words once again paused for a moment due to his stunned expression. Then he looked at the fluorescence gradually emitting from his body and slowly showed a wry smile:

"It's a pity that I still haven't achieved enough strength. I'm afraid I won't have the chance to have it in the future."

"... Obtaining power shouldn't be so difficult, it's just that people like you... always like to make things complicated."

Duan Qing seemed to be equally aware of the difference in time and space between the two people. Duan Qing slowly released his hand that was holding the opponent's chain: "It's like I just realized the operating rules of this world. The destiny you can achieve

Trajectory, in fact, often only requires you to have an understanding of your own abilities. The result of choosing to force a breakthrough will not only bring more trouble to others... but the rest will only bring more distortions."

"Look at the chain on your body." He pointed in front of Oxon and gestured to the chain in front of him that had begun to crack: "In addition to bringing you more abilities, power

In addition, it will also bring you more constraints. In order to leave these new burdens behind again, you can only face more choices, and then in the process of constantly breaking through with strength, you will be more

Take up the yoke."

"A beautiful and irreversible vicious cycle." He sighed and showed a strange smile to Oxen: "No wonder you have such a strong tendency to destroy. If you want to really be free, you will finally be free.

What we will face... I'm afraid it will be the whole world."

"……I see."

Oxon, who was floating in the air, was silent for a while, and then smiled back: "Sure enough, the choice of 'fighting fate' was wrong from the beginning."

"I have experienced the same situation as you at some time in the past." Duan Qing said lightly: "In order to get rid of those heavy shackles, I gave up too much at that time. Although it is too late now, but

I can still remind you from the perspective of someone who has been through it..."

"Strong strength is often a weakness in battle." He looked into the distance of the white world: "And the obsession to change your destiny... will also become the biggest weakness in your life."

"...It's a pity that it's too late. This feat... seems impossible to achieve."

"...Maybe I can make it happen for you."

"No need. Although I can't gain freedom, at least I should die for it."

"...Become a enlightened person? Do the people in the Destiny Alliance also have the consciousness to die for their beliefs?"

In the whirling white mist of the entire other world that was filled with silence, the two figures who were talking began to slowly separate. Duan Qing, who was watching the other's body begin to decompose, also heard the sound of Occasion in his ears.

Sen's last words: "Maybe I can't see the thread of fate that you can see, but I can use my own life to prove its existence. Since you have seen the demise of that 'chain', then use me

This sinful life..."

"Witness the prophecy made by the Son of Destiny."

The floating body finally dispersed into streaks of white light just like when Duan Qing died before, but it did not come together again like Duan Qing did before. The chains pulled out by him also began to disappear as Oxon's figure disappeared.

It slowly converged, and finally flew towards the distance of the white sky. The loud and distant bell also echoed in Duan Qing's ears again with the appearance of this scene, and a tall tower glowing with white light was heard.

The mountain peaks were reflected in front of him. Duan Qing, who was now alone, sighed, but his eyes fell on other large and small chains that also extended in that direction: "Then..."

"What can the child of destiny you call the child do?"

Countless rays of excitement flashed in his eyes. Duan Qing tried hard to control his body, and then after a shaky flight, he floated towards the chain closest to him. Thousands of strange scenes appeared as he approached.

appeared in his mind, and then flashed more and more frequently as the distance shortened. Enduring the stinging pain gradually coming from his mind, Duan Qing finally struggled to get rid of the pain that had no leverage.

His hands were placed on the surface of one of the chains: "If each chain represents everyone's destiny..."

"The so-called Ring of Destiny should be at the end of these things."

Buzz——

A huge impact that could make a person faint instantly hit his brain, but it only made Duan Qing frown slightly at this time, and the huge information from unknown sources began to flow in endlessly.

In his mind, the body floating above the clouds then lost its movement, as if it was completely integrated into the huge chain. Finally, when Duan Qing suddenly opened his eyes, he suddenly moved along the surface of the chain.

Climbed up and out.

"The things I can do..."

Trying his best to analyze the pictures that kept flashing by, Duan Qing kept moving hard towards the endless white void, and then after moving forward for a period of time, he suddenly looked at the bottom of countless parallel iron chains.

Countless lines composed of unknown energy moved back and forth on the surfaces of the other iron chains, like currents transmitting data. His eyes patrolled around there for a while, and finally ended up at the target point he found.

He paused: "That's probably it."

There, the light and shadow of countless swords were flashing continuously in the scene, and then at a certain moment, they were suddenly dyed endless green, spinning and flying into the black night sky.
