Outside the Pure Land was originally a flat expanse.
But at this moment, it appeared like a lake.
The stars and moon reflected off the surface, creating a glimmering spectacle.
The water was no more than half a foot deep.
Yet it had submerged a large area of the plains.
"The waters of the Dayin River have spread over here,"
Lin Yan's voice came from within the Pure Land, his expression calm, evidently already aware of the situation.
He looked at the seemingly serene surface of the water before him and said slowly, "How far is this Pure Land from the channel of the Dayin River?"
"About twelve li,"
Flag Commander Pan Yun said in a low voice.
"Water has crept over from twelve li away,"
Lin Yan walked to the edge of the Pure Land, squatted down, touched the water at his feet, and continued slowly, "It seems peaceful here, but the channel of the Dayin River is more turbulent than expected."
