Emrys had three choices in front of him.
First option was to enter the Cosmic Battlefield, risk his life, and seek the Starry Holy Water to awaken the founder of the village and obtain the Key.
The second option was to refuse the challenge, avoid the dangers, and forget about the Key that could reveal an "extreme." This path was safer, but it would mean giving up on a great opportunity left behind by Ling Xiaolong for him.
Finally, the third option was for him to explore the inheritance site of the Spiritas from the Cosmic Era. It was a flexible choice. He could do it before or after going to the Cosmic Battlefield.
But Emrys had already decided. He was not afraid of danger. He decided to enter the cosmic battlefield and fight while looking for the Starry Holy Water.
The inheritance site could wait.
He had already made up his mind before the Spiritas even arrived.
