Chapter 1948: Chapter 1531: Anchor Point in the Long River_2

Li Fan looked at the distant battlefield, where Cao Yingyue was being besieged by three Taiyuan Realm cultivators, her situation worsening, about to follow in the footsteps of her brother Duan.

With a flick of his fingers.

Cao Yingyue, who was originally severely wounded and whose consciousness had become somewhat blurry, suddenly saw the tragic scene of Brother Duan’s death whom she deeply admired.

He should have had an unlimited future, yet now he had died in vain on this battlefield. A surge of resentment suddenly rose from Cao Yingyue’s heart. Accompanied by an infinite force burning like a fierce fire.

Her body and divine soul seemed to be burning, and in her state of frenzy, Cao Yingyue counterattacked the three Taiyuan Realm cultivators who were besieging her.

Then, she continued to fearlessly retaliate against the cultivators attacking this fortress.

The cultivators stationed here, seeing Cao Yingyue’s brave performance, were infected and all desperately resisted.

After a fierce half-day hold, the Taiyuan Realm cultivators, attacking like locusts, were finally temporarily repelled.

The cultivators only thought it was a reward for their persistence.

Yet they had no idea that it was a setup by Li Fan in secret.

Not just this fortress, if one raises their view to look at the entire Taiyuan Realm, one would see that the originally unified Taiyuan Realm Tao seemed to have had some impurities mixed in, starting to become muddy.

An invisible thin line, like a ravine, crossed the entire Taiyuan Realm, dividing the battlefield.

The Taiyuan Realm cultivators, noticing the anomaly, were forced to retreat.

The Ten Sects cultivators who survived by a narrow margin lay weakly on the ground, enjoying what might be their last moments.

Li Fan was the same as them, almost exhausted.

Not just because of the influence he exerted through his own enlightenment or the secretly placed array technique that changed the overall situation of the Taiyuan Realm.

But also because he faced the waves stirred again by the River of Time.

“This is the limit of what I can do now.”

“The foundation laid earlier is already insufficient in the face of such storms.”

Feeling his precarious state, Li Fan deliberately released a strong wave.

Instantly attracting the attention of the surviving cultivators around him.

For a moment, he caught everyone’s eyes: “Is this, a breakthrough?”

“Heh, Nascent Soul Stage, it only barely increases the chance of survival.”

“But, to survive with the Golden Core Realm in that sudden raid battle and still have an epiphany and breakthrough after the war… This person is not simple! What’s his origin? Seems like we haven’t seen him before.”

“Between life and death, there are great fears, but also great opportunities. Master did not deceive me!”

…

With discussions from everyone, rumors about “Li Ping” from the Evergreen Valley gradually spread.

Just the fact that he volunteered to go to the battlefield was enough to make these Ten Sects cultivators, who experienced life and death in war, view him differently.

Before completely resolving the Heaven and Earth anomaly, the Taiyuan Realm side dared not continue their attack.

Everyone got through a relatively peaceful night.

At night, while Cao Yingyue was in a deep sleep, she suddenly fell into the Nightmare of Brother Duan’s tragic death again.

“Brother!” She instinctively cried out in shock.

Brother Duan seemed to notice her call, and before fading away, he gave her a deeply affectionate look.

Then, a bit of light flew out from his body.

Gradually entering Cao Yingyue’s mind.

Boom!

The Nightmare was instantly swept away, and a scene as splendid as the starry sky suddenly appeared before Cao Yingyue’s eyes.

This extremely magnificent scene made her temporarily forget the pain in her heart.

“Supreme Taoist Scripture?”

Before this peerless beauty, Cao Yingyue could not help but be dumbfounded and lost in thought.

…

When Cao Yingyue woke up, Li Fan voluntarily came to apologize.

“Apology? What are you apologizing for?” Cao Yingyue said coldly.

“If it weren’t for sending me to the battlefield, Brother Duan wouldn’t have…” Li Fan, full of guilt, spoke with his head down.

“…”

In fact, this was indeed the thought inside Cao Yingyue’s heart originally. However, she also knew this matter could not be blamed on the other person. Life and death are impermanent. On the battlefield, life does not inherently belong to oneself; it all depends on the will of Heaven.

Duan Yuxiao’s life was a life, but isn’t the life of countless disciples from the Immortal Dao Ten Clans life too? Besides, Li Fan was also a willing, loyal and fierce cultivator who volunteered for the battlefield.

If she used this as an excuse to cause trouble, countless cultivators from the Ten Sects on this battlefield would not agree.

Cao Yingyue knew this truth, and had originally put it aside.

Now, Li Fan said it openly, it was like a gentle breeze blowing over, wiping it away completely.

“Live well.”

“Together with Brother Duan.”

Cao Yingyue said expressionlessly.

…

In the following half year, dozens of large and small battles occurred again between the Taiyuan Realm and Xuan Huang Realm.

Although the Ten Sects suffered heavy losses, they could barely hold on, backed by Xuan Huang, which has a strong blood supply capability.

While Taiyuan Realm cultivators could resurrect, the occasional anomaly in Taiyuan Heaven and Earth greatly affected their resurrection efficiency. Without thoroughly understanding this anomaly’s source, they did not dare to launch a full-scale counterattack.

So the battlefield dynamics temporarily stalled.

Facing the direction of the battlefield, there began to be differences within the Ten Sects.

Looking at it now, the Immortal Spirit Energy within the Taiyuan Revival Furnace clearly would not be exhausted in the short term. Although unwilling, they had to admit they had previously made a fatal misjudgment.

However, since things have come to this point, pursuing various responsibilities can only happen after the war ends. The key now is what to do next.

Already having missed once, Xuan Huang Realm cannot afford another mistake.

There are quite a few supporting the withdrawal of troops.

And countless of those who remain silent share this thought.

However, what keeps the Ten Sects publicly determined to fight to the end is the Floating Star Crossing Formation inherited from the Ancient Xuan Tian Sect.

Originally a hope to escape the Immortal Ruins, the golden chains of Floating Star Crossing gave them hope.

Yet unexpectedly, it was a muddy quagmire of doom.

And now, they are trapped in this mire.
