Purple Heart

The light was alluring and mysterious, seemingly carrying endless temptation and the unknown. Yun Xi's gaze was drawn to it, and she couldn't help but move closer to it.

Its entire body is sculpted like amethyst, its crystal-clear appearance exuding a profound and noble aura. The golden veins winding around its surface are like mysterious runes, shimmering with an unusual luster, each vein seemingly containing boundless power.

Each beat of this heart was like a thunderclap, causing the entire space to tremble. Yun Xi could feel the energy around her rising and falling with its beat, as if playing an ancient and grand symphony.

The moment she reached out to touch it, a flood of memories rushed in—

Those are the memories of the Ancient God King, containing the sedimentation of countless years and countless stories of joy and sorrow.

Yun Xi witnessed ancient wars, where countless valiant gods shed their blood on the battlefield; she witnessed prosperous cities turning into ruins overnight, with ordinary people weeping in despair; she also witnessed mysterious magical rituals, where powerful forces awakened within ancient incantations.

The origins and development of the Purple Abyss Divine Realm, the secrets buried by time, were revealed one by one before her eyes. She witnessed the bravery and wisdom of the first ruler of the realm, and the cycle of rise and fall of the divine realm.

At the same time, countless profound magical knowledge and cultivation insights flooded her mind, making her feel dizzy. But Yun Xi tried her best to stay awake, desperately absorbing and understanding this valuable information.

Within this vast amount of memories, Yun Xi seemed to have experienced thousands of years, and her heart and spirit were subjected to tremendous shocks and trials.

From this, Yun Xi gained a deeper understanding of fate.

Those vast memories unfolded in her mind like vivid paintings, allowing her to deeply feel the capriciousness and wonder of fate.

She witnessed countless lives rising and falling, struggling in the torrent of fate. Some chose to submit to fate's arrangements and live an ordinary life; some tried to resist but were ultimately crushed by the giant wheel of fate; and the last group of people changed their destiny's trajectory with their firm beliefs and indomitable will.

Yun Xi began to understand that fate is not a fixed straight line, but is full of countless forks in the road and variables.

Every choice, every decision, can potentially change one's destiny.

Now that things have come to this, Yun Xi that her past understanding of fate was nothing compared to the fate she was experiencing now.

Fate is not irresistible; in fact, it can be controlled by oneself. With enough courage and wisdom, one can create one's own brilliance in the game of fate.

She also realized that everything she had experienced, whether setbacks or successes, was part of her destiny.

Those experiences that once caused her pain and confusion, in Ruyi's view, were trials and tribulations given to her by fate, allowing her to grow and become stronger.

And this heart is the heart of the former Domain Lord... that is, the ancient supreme being.

Before the ancient war between the gods began, he had glimpsed the possibility of his own death from the trajectory of fate, so he threw out his heart in advance and sealed it in the Divine Object Abyss Gate.

It was not one of the keys to unlocking the Purple Abyss Divine Realm that Yun Xi had imagined, but it was indeed the most important token of the Purple Crystal Mountain's recognition of her.

Now, if Yun Xi wants to obtain this Heart of the Purple Abyss, she must pass the test of fate.

She gazed at the mysterious and powerful heart, her heart filled with emotion.

It's hard to imagine what state of mind that ancient supreme being was in when making such a decision in the face of the impending war in the divine realm. What kind of insight and courage does it take to foresee one's fate of death?

Suddenly, the scene before Yun Xi's eyes changed again. She seemed to have fallen into a boundless chaotic realm, surrounded by thick fog that obscured all the real scenery.

She knew that the trial of fate for the Heart of the Purple Abyss had begun.

Before her eyes, like a dreamlike bubble, flickered the various possible destinies she might experience, each trajectory like a deep river of time, carrying different possibilities for life.

In some trajectories, she lived a mediocre and uneventful life. Although she enjoyed the ordinariness of life, she was like an insignificant speck of dust in the long river of history, unable to leave any trace.

In some of her life's journeys, she endured countless hardships, climbing to the pinnacle of power and glory amidst the baptism of blood and tears, but also became ruthless and heartless, abandoned by all, and walked towards the end of her life in solitude.

Another trajectory leads to her being swallowed by endless darkness and despair, falling into an abyss of no return, her soul eternally tormented.

A clear and distant voice echoed in the chaos, "Make a choice among these many destinies. Once chosen, it is like the wheel of fate beginning to turn, irreversible."

Yun Xi frowned, her eyes revealing deep thought and struggle.

Her gaze lingered on those trajectories of fate, her heart churning with turbulent emotions.

Faced with a comfortable but ordinary fate, she felt a deep longing stirring within her.

Seeing that glorious yet lonely road, she hesitated because of the heavy price she would have to pay.

As I gazed at that dark and desperate trajectory one last time, fear and resentment surged into my heart.

Clearly, this was not just a simple choice, but a profound test of her soul and a fateful trial of her worldview and values.

Images flashed through Yun Xi's mind... finally settling on the scene of her death in her previous life.

"I choose... to refuse to be bound by a predetermined fate. I will act according to my own will and actions." Yun Xi's voice was not loud, but it was extremely firm.

Are you sure? What if your choice will send you to hell forever?

"Then I won't regret it." Yun Xi remained steadfast in her belief.

In an instant, countless memories of life shattered, the surrounding illusory scenery collapsed, and countless brilliant rays of light shot out from the cracks, converging into an unknown and profound passage, like a bottomless abyss, as if stepping into it would lead to eternal damnation.

Yun Xi gazed at the bottomless passage, feeling no fear or hesitation. She straightened her back and walked forward steadily, each step filled with resolute courage.

As her toes touched the edge of the passage, a powerful suction suddenly came, trying to pull her in.

Yun Xi immediately stunned. This was also a test. If one's mind was not stable, one would surely get lost in it. She was momentarily careless and staggered, but quickly regained her balance with her strong will.
