Chapter 2071: Chapter 1599: The Other Shore Is Within Sight (Part 2)
"Call upon the Stare of the Stars to complete the unfinished business of the past, to transcend beyond the Mountain Sea..."
The Mountain Sea Ceremony, constantly gazing into the Mountain Sea, didn’t have many deceitful experiences. Based on the trust established with Li Fan, it was gradually persuaded by Li Fan’s rhetoric.
"Even if you, my brother, see the Mountain Sea as an enemy... take a look around at the Mountain Sea now. The Dao Yan erosion is pervasive, and the Mountain Sea has reached an extremely precarious state. Isn’t the great enmity already avenged?"
From the emotional changes of the Mountain Sea Ceremony, Li Fan felt that it had been somewhat convinced by him.
But the concepts accumulated over countless years were not so easily overturned.
Fortunately, Li Fan was determined.
He constantly used the Power of Immortality to nourish, helping it recover, while persistently brainwashing it, persuading it to let go of unnecessary hatred and focus on the future.
As the saying goes, steady drops will make a hole in the rock.
A year, ten years, a hundred years, a thousand years, ten thousand years...
When Li Fan’s plan to scatter the True Spirit Spark was about to be completed.
The fragment, which collected countless resentful souls towards the Mountain Sea, finally dispersed suddenly.
A brilliant white radiance burst forth from the fragment. After the light dissipated, a figure appeared.
It was that Mountain Sea Ceremony!
But it was not in the form of a "human," rather it was entirely sea-blue, with slender limbs. The facial features, although similar to humans, had obvious differences. Most notably, its head was transparent.
The Blue Brilliance flowed within like seawater. It seemed that one could see various splendid, fantastical lights flashing inside.
"My friend, let me formally introduce myself. My name is Xiao Wangsheng."
Li Fan could clearly see the gentle hues flashing in Xiao Wangsheng’s head at this moment.
He smiled slightly, clasped his hands, and said, "Congratulations, my brother, on your transformation and rebirth today."
A trace of pale blue sadness flashed across Xiao Wangsheng’s head.
"I must thank my friend for his tireless assistance."
The two had already established a deep friendship through long-lasting exchanges, so Li Fan was straightforward. He inquired about Xiao Wangsheng’s future plans.
"With the dynasty overthrown and no longer countless citizens to support it, the plan to invoke the Stare of the Stars must be changed," Xiao Wangsheng mused and said slowly.
He pointed to the distance, "I can faintly see that there seem to be many powerful living beings gathered there. Some of them are even comparable to my former prime. If I could persuade them to join the plan..."
Li Fan squinted and looked in the direction indicated by Xiao Wangsheng.
It was precisely where the Otherworldly Era was located!
He couldn’t help but smile wryly and explained the current state of the Mountain Sea to Xiao Wangsheng again.
"Oh? So that is the Other Shore?" Xiao Wangsheng nodded, "It’s much weaker than I thought."
Xiao Wangsheng’s confidence was natural.
There used to be nearly a thousand Mountain Sea Ceremonies, and Xiao Wangsheng was one of the younger ones among them.
The longer one could survive in the Mountain Sea form, the stronger they were.
The strength of the Mountain Sea Ceremonies back then was self-evident.
"The blessings of the temples in the past were powerless in the face of the Mountain Sea’s calamity. The so-called Other Shore Salvation Plan of these people is ultimately futile," Xiao Wangsheng shook his head and commented.
"Perhaps it’s because the true strongmen among the Other Shore have already crossed the Realm of Eternal Silence and traveled to an even older past," Li Fan explained to Xiao Wangsheng.
After hearing about the deeds of Lord Guardian Hill, Mountain Lian, Gui Hai, the Three Saints of Taiyi, and many other strongmen, Xiao Wangsheng then put away his earlier scorn.
"Just like you, Brother Xiao. The notions of the people on the Other Shore can’t be easily reversed. If we simply approach them to persuade them to carry out the Stare of the Stars plan, we will surely be refused flat out."
"We need to proceed step by step..."
Xiao Wangsheng was utterly ignorant of the living beings of the current era. Hearing Li Fan say this, he found it reasonable and asked, "What is my brother’s plan?"
In his view, Li Fan was already his "comrade" on the same front.
After all, Li Fan had once personally witnessed the Stare of the Stars and nearly got lost in it. According to Xiao Wangsheng’s experience, anyone who personally experienced the power of the [Star] would steadfastly execute the Stare of the Stars plan.
Because apart from relying on the [Star], no other method can survive this Great Calamity of Mountain Sea destruction.
