The River of Time Faced Deadly Perils; the Heaven-Opening Axe Shadow Overcame Every Obstacle

Within the River of Time, spacetime turbulence surged like an angry sea, ceaselessly battering everything around it. Spacetime fragments of every color collided and annihilated one another in the currents, roaring deafeningly. Lin Yue stood at the heart of the turbulence, surrounded by the brilliant light of the Sages' treasures.
