Fengdu.

It is the newly built Great Witch Town beside Du Guan Town.

This town was established by the Yin Shang Royal Race and wandering heroes in the new land to connect and develop Shushan Land. It is extremely bustling at this moment, with many people gathered here.

The representative mage from the Western civilization Atlantis, Isaac, is also stationed here.

"Next, we begin the summary discussion of this journey to 'tens of thousands of years ago' in prehistory." Ziying spoke here, as if holding court.

Although not so rigorous, his imperial dignity was still present.

After all, he is the Emperor of the Great Witch World.

And after Liu Luo passed away, without the Celestial Emperor overseeing the Land's Witch Emperor, naturally, things were more relaxed.

Beside him were the siblings Jiang Yang and Jiang Yu, as well as Professor Naxika and others, marking this place as a meeting of the internal leaders of various Great Witch Tribes.

This was an inevitable meeting.

After all, the battle was too brutal, with too many events having transpired. This return surely required sorting out various prehistoric mysteries.

"Does it feel somewhat like the gatherings of the ancient Great Witch Tribes from legends? The Chiyou Clan, Youchao Clan... gatherings of those Great Witch leaders?" From afar, some ladies of Cihang Jingzhai whispered among themselves.

"Then we women gathering together, wouldn't we be the Nuwa Clan?" one woman quietly said.

"Silence."

Ziying coughed twice.

The younger generation now is mostly composed of women.

The decline of men and rise of women is a result of the times.

Because of the previous World War, nearly all young male grandmasters were wiped out, leading to the current decline in the martial world, which coincidentally coincided with the resurgence of the mythological era.

Now, the reproductive ability of the Great Witches is extremely low, possibly leading to a long period where the younger generation is dominated by Great Witch women, with people like Baiyu, Fu Qingjun, and Jiang Yang being very rare.

"This mythical journey was astonishingly rewarding for us."

Ziying stood tall, speaking earnestly:

"The lost wisdom of the Great Flood era was absorbed into our time, meaning we've been stuck in the Dao Listener Realm but will soon break through to the Fifth Realm Divinity Transformation!"

"The journey through the Great Flood era not only witnessed myth but also profoundly impacted us. Firstly, we need to confirm: did this journey back in time change the present?"

As soon as he finished speaking.

"Yes, Emperor Liu."

"Why has nothing changed?"

"Emperor Liu has not yet been reborn?"

The entire group began discussing heatedly, with a clamor below.

After all, although Emperor Liu killed many, he also indeed saved that era. Just the final battle alone was enough to offset many things since it decided the fate of the entire pale blue planet.

"Firstly, according to Moloch's testimony..." Ziying began to speak.

He recounted Moloch's historical tale told to Tang Meng, revealing Liu Luo's true identity, leaving the area in silence, not expecting such hidden secrets.

Ziying drew a diagram above, marking time nodes.

"Everyone can look at the timeline."

Ziying stated: "These two people were, in fact, the same person. First... The Great Emperor emerged, ruled with kindness, and after dying transformed into Liu Luo. Liu Luo sought to change from false benevolence to true goodness, hence traveled back in time to alter history.... The Great Emperor was born, ruled with kindness."

Minds went blank.

"Did you see? Emperor Liu, in a certain sense, truly altered ancient history and ventured into the next future." Ziying spoke with total earnestness: "But this future had always existed there, so everything appears unchanged."

Many felt somewhat confused, beginning to sort through their thoughts.

"So, do we, or does Emperor Liu, truly change the past but at the same time change nothing?"

"No, or even, it's because we went back to change the past that it predestined the future we see before us."

...

They stood solemnly, feeling an unsettling apprehension.

To use a simple analogy, it's like your grandfather mysteriously dies. To discover the truth, you travel back in time only to realize you, upon traveling, accidentally kill your grandfather...

As it turns out, your journey back was always a part of the original fate of the past.

Fatalism!

From afar, Tang Meng sighed, face filled with awe,

"I named this land Shushan because there was Nuwa, hence the whimsy... but I truly didn't expect something akin to Legend of Sword and Fairy to occur! Just like—Li Xiaoyao travels back, attempting to save the heroine, Zhao Ling'er, and flies opposite the direction to his dwelling. Who knew Earth is round, and it turns out he was the Li Xiaoyao Zhao Ling'er met when she was young, and thus, upon meeting, she just accepted Li Xiaoyao..."

The butterfly effect, ghost ships, these time travel movies are indeed like this time loop...

But at this moment,

These lands, the people were clearly encountering this concept of fatalism for the first time.

"So, have we changed nothing?" Someone asked, a chivalrous hero, renowned in the previous martial world, known as the Hundred Spears Celestial Guest.

"We've only gone back to witness ancient mythical history?" The Sect Leader of the Huashan sect spoke up.

"Will the past's misfortune still descend?"

"Yes, based on the intelligence we finally obtained, the reason for the advent of the dark age was because Celestial Emperor Bailong perished. He was the reincarnation of Hermes, and without fulfilling his mission like Jiaxia, he died prematurely!"

"This simply, my head is spinning, but when we left, we indeed witnessed a beautiful era, seemingly without any crisis outbreak."

"Could it be the prelude to an even greater dark era?"

The entire scene was chaotic.

Everyone found this feeling of helplessness overwhelming.

Fate, as if a large hand violently gripping their throats, thought they changed everything but altered nothing.

Ziying remained calm, continuing to analyze past mysteries,

"If we ponder from Emperor Liu's perspective, our travel back was historically inevitable...so perhaps, Atlantis and Shushan civilization exist on our account of going back."

Boom!

Their heads exploded as if struck by thunder.

The names Atlantis, Shushan were based on ancient Huaxia texts.

Who knew they were the ones in the ancient mythical texts?

What came first, the chicken or the egg?

Ziying went on: "Everyone has thought, isn't it possible that because we returned to the past, the legends of Atlantis and Shushan Immortals were left behind?"

"I believe the answer is yes."

"Because upon closer observation, there weren't such civilizations as Atlantis then, indicating we appeared firstly. We did not exist prior, saying we're ancestors is indeed possible!"

"So, is this also another perfect loop?"

"Now think about it, indeed Shushan and Atlantis have myths tied to destruction by a great flood."

"We admired ancient heroes, borrowed mythical civilization vocabulary, accidentally traveled back, becoming the ancient myths...we now revere?"

They looked at each other, too shocked to speak!

All were dumbfounded, feeling the weight and history of fate descending upon them.

——They indeed changed everything yet changed nothing at all.

At this time, far in the sky, a figure descended, tearing through ever so slightly.

It was shockingly the long-lost Great Emperor, curious eyes observing these Great Witches, "What are you doing here?"

"Emperor Liu, you've been reborn!"

"Ah, ah, ah, Emperor Liu, you succeeded! Indeed you proceeded to the next future!"

The surroundings turned tumultuous, filled with excitement.

A figure also materialized.

It was that Moloch, as always, concealed within the crowd, extremely insidious, "My dear disciple, you indeed succeeded, returned alive, truly my top disciple, hahaha!"

"??"

The Great Emperor stood with hands behind his back, his white robe fluttering, yet his face puzzled.
