Legend of the chosen ones: Beyond Destiny Chapter 1273 636: Enlightenment

At this mont, the Forest Country, breaking through its shackles, has begun its renewed expansion, slow yet determined, unstoppable as it gradually spreads from the depths of White Country towards the entire region.

If one wishes to escape from here, the first choice, without a doubt, is the Federation's frontline base, now stocked with heavy troops and substantial resources.

But the key question is... what can you do at the frontline base?

Continue being cannon fodder and consumables?

From the perspective of the Security Bureau, nowhere compares to the frontline base, but the problem is... Ji Jue isn't from the Security Bureau.

The pursuers calculated everything but still miscalculated Ji Jue's trust level in the Federation — of course, from a beast's perspective, Ji Jue trusts the Federation implicitly, given they've done all sorts of things.

Normally, they might outsource a bit and earn so petty money, but now that White Country has beco such a ss, running to the frontline base probably ans there's sothing wrong with one's mind.

At this mont, the craftsman's stunning wisdom informs him that if you don't plan on staying up all night embroidering black flags to welco the Great Evil, then you'll need to traverse the periphery of Forest Country and head towards Red Country.

Red Country! Great!

There are business partners everywhere, even the Returning Ho Knight Order has its own influence there. In White Country, he can only be an arms dealer; in Red Country, he sowhat counts as an unofficial sacrificial priest, at least he won't worry about the Returning Ho Knight Order betraying him, right?

Unless they betray their oath, discard the Sacrificial Master, otherwise that's unthinkable!

So, after making up his mind, disguised as a Little Ox and Horse of the Evil Cult, he begins to race through Forest Country, making a big circle and bypassing the core Old Capital. He then draws an arc on the map, heading straight towards Red Country.

In the silent carriage, a sigh is heard.

"Ji Jue, rely escaping won't solve the problem."

Ji Jue stiffens, slowly turning his head, glancing towards the 'Spirit' stuck halfway through, puzzled, aning, Old Deng, why are you still here?!

Shouldn't you be chilling sowhere else?

"I wasn't supposed to say anything, but the key is, your heart is confused."

Ci Ji King, observing him, sighs with regret: "Though today's Shangrila has beco unrecognizable, so of its essence still remains.

In the entanglent of Cause and Effect, if one could bravely face the challenges, ultimately, everyone can gain enlightennt, including you."

Pausing for a mont, he looks at Tong Shan, who is seemingly dozing with closed eyes.

On his indifferent expression appears a mirage of a smile:

"Look, hasn't he already had an epiphany?"

"I don't give a damn about epiphanies!"

Ji Jue laughs, annoyed: "If enlightennt is useful, why did none of you Chaos Kings survive? You're more nonsensical than Hua Xu Monarch!"

"Enlightennt has nothing to do with life and death, but in so sense, it surpasses life and death."

Ci Ji King's expression remains unchanged, rely asking: "Isn't there anything to you that's more important than death and life?"

Ji Jue doesn't answer, ignoring him.

Yet Ci Ji King smiles.

Full of joy.

"Then, you have already embarked on the path of enlightennt."

Though his heart is already boiling with blood hatred, resentful and uneasy, yet for others, he forcibly suppresses himself, moving contrary to fate...

Even if it's against destiny, perhaps this is a long way towards enlightennt.

Shangrila's essence still resides.

Forest Country has already fallen into a place of mutual devouring known as the Evil Domain, but isn't such an Evil Domain ford by countless people's realization?

Since stepping into Shangrila, Cause and Effect entangle, fate entwines, everything has been predetermined. Even under Ji Jue's gravity, it becos clearer.

He will eventually attain enlightennt.

Whether to go or stay...

Ci Ji King sighs softly and vanishes.

anwhile, Little Ox and Horse continues to race forward.

Until, gradually slowing down...

On the map, between two barren mountains, at the bottom of a valley, there's only a ruined village, enveloped by the thick aura of the Great Evil, likely already occupied by a Wolf Pack.

If you don't want to make a conspicuous détour, you'll probably have to pass through the village.

Ji Jue turns back, glancing at the barely breathing Tong Shan, then looks at An Ning, who is trying to gather her strength, thoughtful for a mont, helplessly sighs.

A Tian Yuan, a White Deer, already completely countered by Forest Country.

If they make too big a scene, it almost guarantees alarms will go off montarily.

Only he's left as an Ember, barely able to scrape sothing together.

After estimating his stockpile and reserved Fuel Elent Weapons, he tidies up his Main Priest robe, ready to put on a bit of a show.

"Brother Ji Jue, sothing's not right."

Just as he's readying for the Evil Cult set-up again, An Ning's eyelids lift, her expression quickly somber.

A bloody scent drifts in from afar in the air.

Yet as Little Ox and Horse slowly moves forward, no one peeks out to investigate, the entire village remains silent, without a sound.

Until the first fresh corpse appears before them.

Like sothing had torn it apart in a rage, it was split in half, its head missing, blood splattering. All over the broken, desolate village, there are severed limbs, blood, and chunks of flesh scattered.

All the wolves that were here are now dismbered, silenced.
