Opportunity

She took a deep breath and looked up into the depths of the passage... Now, no matter what, she would not back down.

Yun Xi chose to continue forward, stepping completely into the passage. Light instantly engulfed her, blurring everything around her. She felt a powerful force of fate pulling at her, tearing at her body and soul, as if trying to utterly shatter her.

Yun Xi remained expressionless, silently enduring everything. She had only one belief in her heart: to break free from the Shackles of fate and take control of her own future.

In this endless pain and torment, Yun Xi's consciousness gradually blurred. Her body felt as if it were being cut by countless sharp blades, and her soul felt as if it were being burned in a raging fire. Yet, she always held fast to herself. It was a persistent pursuit of free will and a firm belief in controlling her own destiny.

After an unknown amount of time, a dazzling purple light bloomed ahead...

So this was the real Zi Yuan's heart; before she entered the passage, she only saw a phantom.

The purple light, like the first rays of dawn breaking through the darkness, instantly illuminated the entire chaotic space. Yun Xi struggled to open her heavy eyelids, her gaze fixed on the light. She moved with difficulty, approaching the purple light.

With each step she took closer, she felt an even stronger and purer power rushing towards her. This power filled her with both awe and longing.

Has she... passed the test?

At this moment, Zi Yuan's heart was radiating a warm and gentle light, as if tenderly accepting her.

Yun Xi slowly stretched out her hands and gently grasped Zi Yuan's heart. A wisp of divine thought entered her mind through Zi Yuan's heart.

[Child, I entrust the Purple Abyss Divine Realm to you from now on...] A soft yet weathered voice entered her mind.

Yun Xi a slight tremor in her heart, and an indescribable feeling welled up inside her.

[The enemies in the Purple Abyss Divine Realm are not simple. Remember, you are the future Destiny, and you possess the power to change fate. As long as you remember this, no difficulty can defeat you.]

The voice, seemingly carrying endless hope and trust, echoed continuously in Yun Xi's mind. She gripped Zi Yuan's heart tightly, feeling the power and entrustment contained within that divine thought.

Yun Xi silently replied in her heart, "Senior, rest assured, I will do my best to protect the Purple Abyss Divine Realm and live up to your trust."

[My heart can lend you a hand, make good use of it... but you cannot directly fuse with it. You can use the method of devouring it, absorbing everything within it, including my understanding of the Destiny Rules, and a trace of an unspeakable 'opportunity'. Make good use of that 'opportunity'.]

Yun Xi listened attentively to the warning from the former domain chief, her expression solemn. She knew that this was an invaluable yet risky gift.

By now, Yun Xi was naturally aware of the identity of this ancient supreme being. He was a peak-level Destiny God King, who had already stepped into the realm of Eternal Supreme Being. The ineffable 'opportunity' he spoke of was related to Eternity.

Yun Xi was deeply shocked. She knew how profound and unattainable the meaning of the word "eternity" was, as it represented a being above even the God-King.

Now, even the slightest opportunity to come into contact with something related to her feels incredibly lucky.

She couldn't help but recall the memories she had just gleaned from Heart of the Purple Abyss. This Destiny God King had single-handedly reversed the destinies of countless beings, saving the entire divine realm from peril. His wisdom and power shone like brilliant stars, illuminating the long history of the Purple Abyss Divine Realm.

And yet, he himself was able to inherit his will and possess this opportunity that contained the eternal name 'Opportunity'...

She understood that this sliver of eternal 'opportunity' was an invaluable treasure, but also a tremendous challenge. If she failed to use it properly, she would not only disappoint the Destiny God King, but could also bring unpredictable disasters upon herself and the Purple Abyss Divine Realm.

At that time, Yun Xi also knew that during the previous Tongyu test, no matter how much pain her soul was in, her soul was actually not harmed in any way, since the system's soul protection was never activated.

The Heart of the Purple Abyss did not truly harm her soul. From this, Yun Xi could also understand the deep care the former domain lord had for his junior.

After all, if it were any other supreme being, they wouldn't be so peaceful when choosing their successor, because the path to gaining power is always filled with bloodshed.

Without a doubt, this former domain lord is worthy of her respect and remembrance.

In this cruel world, the inheritance of power is often accompanied by brutal competition and bloody slaughter. However, the former domain lord tested her in such a gentle and caring way, giving her the opportunity to grow, for which Yun Xi was naturally grateful.

She gazed at the dazzling Heart of the Purple Abyss, as if she were looking into the kind and expectant eyes of the former domain lord.

Yun Xi secretly vowed that she would never betray this trust and care, and would use this hard-won power to protect the peace and tranquility of the Purple Abyss Divine Realm, so that the previous domain lord's efforts could continue.

Yun Xi calmed her excited emotions and focused her attention back on Heart of the Purple Abyss. She knew that although the trial was over, the real responsibility had just begun.

"Senior, I will certainly follow your teachings and use this power with caution," Yun Xi said silently in her heart.

Subsequently, she began to try to follow the instructions of the former domain lord, using the Freedom Divine Technique to Devouring Divine Technique, in order to devour everything contained within the Heart of the Purple Abyss.

However, this process was not easy; the powerful force was like a surging tide, impacting her body and mind time and time again.

Yun Xi gritted her teeth, stubbornly resisting the pressure and struggling to control the rhythm of the devouring. Every glimmer of understanding of the Destiny Rules that merged into her soul brought a wave of dizziness.

When she came into contact with that ineffable 'opportunity,' Yun Xi felt an unprecedented sense of mystery and awe. This aura seemed to contain the Eternal Power of the universe, which filled her with reverence and strengthened her resolve to control it.

During the long and arduous process of being devoured, Yun Xi's body trembled constantly, and her clothes were soaked with sweat.

Especially that sliver of an 'Eternal Opportunity'...

As she absorbed this sliver of eternal 'opportunity' deeper and deeper, Yun Xi sensed an indescribable, mysterious power slowly awakening deep within her soul.

It was a power that surpassed all her previous understanding, as if it could break the shackles of time and space and touch the most fundamental mysteries of the universe.
