The giant standing in the River of Time, who looked remarkably like Xu Gang, tried several times to lift his foot, break free of the River of Time's restraints, and step onto the shore.
But each time, he was dragged back by the River of Time's endless binding force, unable to break free.
It was as though tens of thousands of worlds had been hammered onto those two feet, leaving him utterly unable to move.
At this moment, all the disciples preparing for battle in the Sect came out and began observing the River of Time within the starfield.
After the giant who resembled Xu Gang failed to break free several times, Dao Celestial Phenomena representing the Five Elements lit up behind him.
The Dao Celestial Phenomena then fused into chaos and strengthened his body.
Finally, bolstered by chaos, one foot slowly and laboriously pulled free from the River of Time and stepped onto the shore.
Within the Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. To break free from the River of Time, the final foot was the hardest to pull out.
The disciples watching within the Hidden Spirit Sect also began to grow tense. They all put themselves in his place, wondering whether they could break free if they were currently inside the River of Time.
After all, the River of Time in the Immortal World differed from the one in the starfield.
It was like the difference between a tributary and the main artery, and the difficulty of breaking free was multiplied accordingly.
"If he achieves Great Luo in the starfield, all is well. But if he fails, then he will not be able to summon the River of Time and break free in the Immortal World either." The White-haired Old Man appeared beside Xu Fan.
