Finally, a genuine smile appeared on Xing's face.

"Alright, kid, enough with the formalities. We have something important to tell you. But before that, why are you standing next to this little pink-haired guy?"

Hei Ta glanced at Xiao Xilian beside him.

"Oh." A sly smile suddenly appeared on Xing's lips:

"Let me formally introduce this to everyone, this is a pink-furred puppy!"

"Hey, who's the pink-haired puppy?!" Xi Lian stomped her foot and puffed out her cheeks.

A look of keen interest instantly appeared on Lin Yuan's face. He crouched down slightly, curiously leaning closer:

"Little dog, little dog, please teach me."

Xi Lian: ?

Chapter 487 The Final Journey of Chasing Fire

In the end, Lin Yuan still didn't hear the most satisfying dog bark in the observable universe.

Xiao Xilian stood there, helplessly pursing her lips, refusing to speak. The expectation on Lin Yuan's face slowly turned into visible regret.

"What are you regretting?!"

Black Tower couldn't help but glare at him, then decisively steered the conversation back on track:

“Starcore brat, to make a long story short, Nanuk’s gaze was just looking this way. I’m not kidding, it wasn’t the machine head, it was Nanuk.”

As the Black Tower brought up the topic, Screw Gum succinctly explained the nature of Onpharos to Xing and Xilian, allowing the two to quickly clarify their current goals:

If the Iron Tomb cannot be stopped, it will destroy intellect and plunge the galaxy into utter darkness.

"Therefore, if we view Onphalus as a program that destroys intellect, the Iron Tomb is the source code."

Now, consider the program to be 99.98% complete. It's just a tiny bit more away from finishing.

Black Tower stretched out his hand and made an explosion gesture.

"The universe will explode like a giant firework, bang!"

"It's so dark, don't scare the child to death," Lin Yuan interjected.

"Isn't this to help her understand the urgency?" Black Tower said without changing his expression.

“Listen carefully, little one. Time flows differently inside and outside Onphalus, and destruction is imminent, but you still have a chance to be a savior.”

The cycle has been broken, and you have entered what is theoretically the final cycle of reincarnation—the Iron Tomb will emerge once another re-creation is completed.

She paused, then changed the subject:

"However, the experiment went wrong. You should know why."

The twelve factors in the calculation... Of those twelve demigods, one destroyed himself through Nanuk's power.

As the gaze of destruction fell, Bai E's signal vanished from the cycle of reincarnation. "Now the logic of the Negative World has a flaw, and since it's directly linked to the creation process, therefore—"

Just as Heita was about to continue, Xing and Xilian's expressions suddenly changed.

The smiles faded from their faces, and the air instantly fell silent.

Xing lowered her eyelashes, while Xi Lian's fingers clenched her sleeves. A sorrowful and heavy atmosphere settled over them, like the empty sea of ​​Fajina.

In this atmosphere, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke:

"Don't worry. Although Bai'er disappeared from the cycle of Onpharos, he was also promoted under Nanuk's watchful eye and truly jumped out of Onpharos."

"Brother Lin, are you saying Bai E isn't dead?!"

A glimmer of hope shone in their eyes in an instant.

"Well..." Lin Yuan's expression became subtle.

"Is he dead? It seems so. Is he not dead? It seems so. I can only say he looks like he's dead."

"........."

A series of ambiguous gazes came from above.

"Fine, let's just have you guys demonstrate it."

He opened his palm, and a yellowish-purple flame shone forth. Compared to before, its luster was brighter under the nurturing of Lin Yuan's power.

“Before, I tried to find you by using the memory anchor. I entered Onpharos, but I don’t know which god intervened and used the power of memory to throw me back to about 20 million cycles ago.”

Xi Lian's eyes suddenly flickered.

"In that cycle, I made some attempts. I rewrote all the oracles and then condensed all the possibilities into this spark and gave it to Bai E in that lifetime."

After countless cycles, the flame has followed him to the present day. Therefore, whether it's Bai E or any other member of the Golden Clan... they all have the possibility of returning through its power.

Xing stared at the yellowish-purple light and instantly believed it. Based on her understanding of Bai E, no one else could match this color scheme.

"So, in order to preserve this possibility, you went and tried to take it from Nanook by force? And you got injured in the process?"

Black Tower suddenly looked at him, his tone somewhat serious, seemingly carrying a hint of reproach.

Everyone turned to look at her. Xing's eyes flickered with a glint of light, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

"It's alright, it's all worth it for me."

Lin Yuan's smile faded slightly, and a shadow of gloom flashed in his eyes.

Is it worth it? He doesn't know. But a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years, and Lin Yuan's revenge must be taken from morning till night.

Nanuk, I'll remember this grudge.

He lowered his eyes to look at the stars, his voice becoming much more solemn:

"So now, Star, your responsibility is immense. Without defeating the Iron Tomb, all of this is just empty talk. You are now the only variable in Onpharos... Only you can forge a new path, Star."

"I....."

Xing suddenly felt a heavy burden on his shoulders. He had just taken over the flame from Kefaller and now he was burdened with the weight of fate. He might as well stop calling himself the Flame of the World and start calling himself the Weightlifting Champion.

Pressure on a star core? Lin Yuan suddenly felt that it was indeed quite interesting.

"See? You get what I mean? This kid has unlimited potential." Black Tower gave him a look.

Seeing Xing's solemn face, she immediately waved her hand:

"Alright, don't be nervous, little one."

"Next, Lai Gu Shi will definitely try to take back your Necromancer's Flame, but the Scepter has extremely strict autonomy agreements, and as the administrator, he is also subject to restrictions."

In Onphalus, this ultimate covenant has another name: the Titan of the Law.

"So it was Onpharos's highest demigod," Lin Yuan added in his mind.

"So, let's get back to the main point. I've locked in the time for you... the year 3960 of the Light Calendar, the Balance Month."

Find the law, see the demigod, persuade her, or seize fire—anything that can be used for your own purposes.

"Black Tower, the firewall interference is approaching, time is running out," Screw Gum warned from the side.

"Alright, little one, let's get to the point. Don't worry about what's happening outside; the Iron Tomb isn't a real threat right now. Himeko is very worried about you."

Also, your companion Danheng is returning to the train, and you don't need to worry about March 7th... That girl has many secrets; even if Onpharos explodes, she can turn into ice and float out.”

Alright, I hope you can put on a good show, you great savior hero.

Black Tower smiled slightly and was about to cut off the signal.

"Wait, I have something else to say." Lin Yuan stopped her.

"Star, and this little pink one too—"

"His name is Xi Lian!"

"Okay, little pink-haired girl. This is Onpharos's last cycle, and also the last fire chase. Don't be too stressed."

We have assembled a coalition of forces from across the universe to destroy the Iron Tomb from the outside.

And you are the secret weapon from within. Lock down the Iron Tomb's core from within and defeat it.

He glanced at Xi Lian out of the corner of his eye: "I believe in you, and I assure you that as long as the Iron Tomb can be destroyed, I guarantee that those who have passed away will return and be reborn."

These words were meant for Xi Lian.

As another observer of Onpharos's long journey, he clearly saw the girl's desire to save Onpharos, a desire made in the name of love.

Lin Yuan's promise here was also in order to obtain Xi Lian's help in that instant of Fu Li.

"Keep it up, you two. There will be plenty of difficulties, but the good news is... I've already anchored the recognition anchor. In times of crisis, I can step in from another dimension, just like the old man in the ring."

The signal finally gave way to the interference from the firewall, and the three figures vanished instantly.

"Grandpa, my brother Lin's generation has increased really fast." Xing scratched his head.

"Hey Xing... if you call her a pink puppy again, she'll get angry!"

Xing turned around and met Xi Lian's dangerous smile.

"Hey, can we make peace?"

Chapter 488 Faintly Recalling the Past

"Sigh, I never imagined that the fate of the Milky Way would fall on the little guy's shoulders like this. Just thinking about it makes my neck ache."

Black Tower's voice was tinged with emotion.

After ending the communication, Lin Yuan, Black Tower, and Screw Gum discussed the situation together.

“Ms. Heta, we usually call that cervical spondylosis.”

"Cervical spondylosis my foot! I'm a genius!"

The big black tower muttered a couple of things, but his tone was noticeably more relaxed than before.

"Conclusion: Appropriate jokes and relaxation are beneficial for saving the galaxy." Screw Goom nodded approvingly from the side.
