An instinct from the depths of his consciousness surged within Old Bai: the end was nigh.
He felt somewhat reluctant, yet somewhat at peace.
Perhaps it was better to leave.

Old Bai did not open his eyes.
Instead, the collapsing projection changed once more, transforming into a rapidly shattering scene.
