Chapter 779: Chapter 478 Give Me Three Days_3
As long as he could rescue Carmen, everything would fall into place!
"I implore you to give me three days of time... If I fail, then Your Majesty Blaze, at that time, you may join forces with the Constellation Sect to eliminate Houston,"
Chen Lun lowered his head and spoke with sincere tone.
The Witch seemed to notice something, her slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and after a moment of silence, she nodded in agreement.
"In that case, I hope you can be successful, Jack."

Chen Lun dared not waste a single moment. After bidding farewell to the Silver Dragon Witch, he headed straight back to his apartment in the resting area and swapped with the Incarnation of Deception.
To ensure a smooth rescue of Carmen, he chose to go all out, sending his original body to the Dark World while the Incarnation of Deception returned to the present world’s Royal City to take charge of the overall situation.
’Based on the location found by the Incarnation of Deception, it seems to be at the end of a canyon in the Dark World... At the deepest part of the rock wall, there is a sinister mural that connects to a separate space; all clues about Carmen are concentrated there,’ thought Chen Lun, his feet not stopping for a moment.
His figure flickered several times and he was already traveling between the deeper layers of the Spirit World, soon leaping to the front of the bronze giant gate. With one step, he fully entered the Dark World.
Because the Incarnation of Deception had left a "Spirit World Anchor" at the bottom of that canyon, Chen Lun did not need to spend time exploring again. With a few Cloud Leaps, he crossed the vast distance and arrived at his destination.
The environment was deeply dark, so much so that one couldn’t see their own hand in front of them.
Chen Lun walked at the silent canyon’s bottom, over a thick layer of dust and unknown debris, heading straight for a rock wall with the help of [Five Senses Perception].
The moment he "saw" the mural, blood flowed from his nose and mouth once more, and a wave of dizziness and vertigo followed.
[You have witnessed the tainted Mythical Mural "Scorpio’s Torment Regular Record VII: The Yellow Wax Figure Hall", Sanity Value -60!]
Chen Lun’s current Sanity Value had reached an upper limit of 110 Points. Although this was a harsh blow, it wasn’t like before, where he lost consciousness and fainted instantly. He only experienced a moment of tearing pain in his head, which was then replenished by the Sanity stored within the Maggie Statue, restoring his clarity.
He took out a handkerchief, wiped the blood from his nose and mouth, and looked up to examine the mural.
Although the description from the panel mentioned a "wax figure hall", the mural depicted a solitary stone pillar standing in an open wasteland, reaching into the sky, with a lone, spire-shaped building on its top, utterly dilapidated.
The entire mural’s background color was a wax yellow that was close to the sense of decay. Whether it was the sky or the sandstorms, all were filled with an indescribable sense of erosion by the years. Even Chen Lun could smell a peculiar odor of rot diffusing from the mural.
He took a deep breath and reached out to touch the rock wall.
Rustle...
To his surprise, in the dead silence, there came the howling of the wind and the sound of sand grains being blown. The next second, his vision exploded with blinding light, swallowing him up.
"In the year 8587 of the Fourth Era, the God of Magic Angela spanned six layers of historical veils, in search of my true self... Her underling, Angel Clarence, attempted to thwart my Deification Ritual on the third layer of the historical timeline, exploring my Unique Divinity... But the monument is complete, and history remains as illusory as a flower’s reflection in a mirror, visible and audible yet unknowable."
A voice, deeply marked by the passage of years, faintly echoed in Chen Lun’s mind.
When he regained his senses, he found himself standing in a desert, with the towering stone pillar from the mural on the horizon.
