And in the middle...
"Look, it's like a balance scale, isn't it?"
Lv Yingyue sneered: "Obviously, the two are diatrically opposed, displaying vast differences in advantages, yet their flaws are identical...
Choose the [White Deer], dying equally, living equally, struggling equally in a world of disorder, life and death beyond one's control.
And choosing [Tian Yuan], ans being equally restrained, equally unfree, and in the mutual coexistence of equality, trapped within a cage.
The true point has never been about what is gained, but about what is lost."
"...Taught."
In the silence, Tong Shan solemnly bowed his head.
"Ha, I haven't started teaching you yet, Tong Shan."
Lv Yingyue chuckled, gently shaking her head: "In life, there are often unrealistic fantasies, even the most conservative and steady person is the sa.
People often mistakenly believe that power will bring more choices, but that's not the case.
So powers, the more you grasp them, the fewer choices remain.
Just like you—"
She looked at the assistant she had once admired most, with such pity.
Once she had admired that jade-like restraint and conduct, morality and bottom line, but now she was so regretful.
Rising pure from the mud and remaining unsullied, in the end, was just wishful thinking, what is truly common is the pure white sand stained black when mixed... Once you fall into that quagmire, what form will you take when you climb out again?
"Tian Yuan paints the ground as a prison, but the first to be trapped is often oneself.
You are already in the cage, Tong Shan."
Lv Yingyue sighed softly: "If you cannot get used to this coexistence with the cage, either break the cage and live for yourself, or do nothing and be devoured by the cage, until you are unrecognizable... But before that, you must understand clearly, what you truly want to hold on to."
Tong Shan raised his head, almost offensively, and plainly asked: "In such a way, can the problem really be solved?"
"Perhaps, perhaps not, even a dying struggle is to no avail."
Lv Yingyue rested her chin in her hand, pondered for a mont, and then laughed sincerely:
"At least, die freely."
.
By now, Tong Shan finally understood the aning behind Guardian Lv's words.
Also, between 'smashing the prison, self-sabotage' and 'stalling, becoming unrecognizable,' she pointed out a third option: to twist the cage into the shape one desires, pruning out all obstructive branches, and cutting away each unbearable 'cellmate'!
And so, inevitably, facing colleagues with swords drawn, a life-or-death struggle.
No more need for pretense.
Even more... not just Jin Wuyan, long before this, countless others beca opponents and enemies that must eventually be eradicated!
All those years spent circling around the bottom line, bending down and picking up the rules of unscrupulous ans, is it really worth it?
After taking this step, what will the future self beco?
It doesn't matter anymore.
At this mont, he lowered his eyes, staring at the flying ashes in the wind, neither sorrowful nor joyful, only feeling an unprecedented lightness.
"Indeed, liberating."
Boom!!!
The deathly silence was broken by an even greater roar.
Above the dim firmant, two breaches interleaved and blossod, then scorching rays of light shot straight down from the cosmic sky, penetrating the Forest Country, with each beam scorching several miles in radius, shaking the earth, making the sky tremble.
Pasarella on the Empire's side seized the opportunity, going all out.
Tian Yuan's side has completely taken the upper hand!
Relentless pursuit, holding nothing back, until the continuous waves spread, and in the deepest part of the Forest Country, a shadow lood montarily in that churning darkness...
And at that mont, the White Deer Hunter, crouching in ambush since the start of the battle, launched a fierce attack!
Heavenly People!
They are the Family Head of Hunter Finger·Flying Light and Horned Cave·Sunlight!
In hand, they wield the Sunlight Arrow and Bitter Day Illusion Light, attacking ferociously, directly penetrating the core, capturing this crucial opportunity after long anticipation, aiming for a kill with one strike!
Yet, within the torn darkness, a bizarre figure seed to sneer.
Slowly, it retreated a step.
As if dissolving, vanished into nothingness.
Bitter Day and Sunlight, brushed past, losing their target... no, it should be said, from the beginning, Flying Light and Horned Cave locked onto the wrong aura!
The confusion of the Mountain Wolf!
In a mont of shock, Bitter Day and Flying Light, struck the 'target'!
[?]
Corpse Mountain dazed.
Looking bewilderedly down at the massive body with its two deep gashes, for a mont, wanted to say sothing.
But alas, it was too late.
Boom!!!
Since the war began, the White Hall Demon, who had been idly lurking at the back, exploded violently.
Not even a chance for a scream.
No one expected that in the battle between Tianyuan White Deer and Wolf, the first to die was actually Corpse Mountain, invited to the feast?!
The imnse body fell from the air, and the more it descended, the more it swelled.
In the end, it literally beca a mountain of flesh.
Amidst the roar, it smashed onto the ground, bursting open... like a flood, blood spurted out, rushing to the sky, mixed with countless corpses, staining half the sky crimson.
Throughout the Forest Country, countless corpses and blood poured down like rain, wails echoed continuously, and amid the disintegrating soul of the demon, a genuine disaster gradually sprouted, born.
Across the entire desert wilderness, countless fresh corpses, instead of remaining dead, convulsed and twitched, crawling up again in rot... If not properly handled, perhaps, from today onward, another new heavenly calamity would erge in the world.
But now, nobody cares about the heavenly calamity.
Everyone looked towards, that second silhouette falling from the sky...
—Pasarella!
At the very mont Sunlight and Bitter Day launched, a mysterious outline appeared out of thin air behind Pasarella, seizing this vital gap, opened its mouth fiercely.
Mountain Wolf!
With Tian Yuan's suppression and expulsion, Pasarella's counterattack, and the Desert Market Heavenly People's fierce assault, in this fleeting instant, countless people focused their attacks.
The result, all fully absorbed.
Taken head-on!
rely leaving a minor scorch mark on the skin.
Imdiately after, a cracking sound.
Under the jaws of the Wolf Evil's incarnation, Pasarella was severed without a chance...
Dead!
