Guarding the River of Time-Chapter 350 - 340: He Establishes the River of Time in Invincibility! Absolute Suppression

Chapter 350: Chapter 340: He Establishes the River of Time in Invincibility! Absolute Suppression

The immortal light dissipated, and the woman in green and the others finally saw the man within the array clearly.

They saw the man standing in place, holding a compass. There were no visible injuries on him, and not only that, his aura had become many times stronger.

The presence of that madman could no longer be sensed, and his magical artifact was now under this man’s control.

In other words, not only had the madman been defeated, he had also been killed!

The woman in green’s beautiful eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. She had believed the madman would lose, but couldn’t fathom such a swift and complete defeat.

Though she didn’t know the madman well, not even his real name, she had witnessed his strength firsthand.

Comparing him to Tianluo, he could subdue Tianluo with one hand, without needing to use a weapon.

Tianluo’s strength was about equal to her own. Though the madman was usually erratic, in a real fight, she wouldn’t last three moves against him.

So, she couldn’t believe everything unfolding before her eyes.

The River Guardian had been trapped within the array, unable to harness the power of the River of Time. Moreover, he had entered the madman’s Compass World. Yet, under such extreme circumstances, he had won within two hours. It was simply...unbelievable!

....

Compared to the woman in green, Elder Ling, who knew the true identity of the man in the robe, was even more shocked.

Others might not know Zhengyi’s identity, but he was quite clear about it.

Zhengyi Dao Ancestor was a figure that could be eternally remembered in the ancient history of All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

However, he wasn’t shocked by Zhengyi’s defeat; after all, Fellow Daoist Su was the River Guardian, with a significant edge over Zhengyi Dao Ancestor.

What shocked him was that, given Zhengyi Dao Ancestor’s strength and temperament, even in defeat, he would have detonated the Yin Yang Compass, rather than let it fall intact into Fellow Daoist Su’s hands.

Moreover, Elder Ling sensed a trace of the Power of Empowerment on Su Mu, and the aura of this Power of Empowerment obviously originated from Zhengyi Dao Ancestor.

Either Fellow Daoist Su forcibly refined Zhengyi Dao Ancestor.

Which was basically impossible, as Zhengyi Dao Ancestor would definitely resist; he only needed to self-destruct.

Or...Zhengyi Dao Ancestor willingly bestowed everything upon Fellow Daoist Su!

But....why??

Why would Zhengyi do such a thing?

Elder Ling couldn’t discern it, not understanding the other party’s intention at all...

...

The woman in green no longer had time to think about anything else.

Holding her long sword, powerful Sword Qi swirled around the blade; as she slashed down, the Sword Qi dragon surged towards Su Mu.

Nine monks also extended their right palms, golden palm prints bursting forth, heading towards Su Mu.

At the moment when he was about to be overwhelmed, Su Mu slowly raised his right hand, simply waved it lightly, and all the Sword Qi dragons and golden palm prints shattered.

The woman in green was also forced back several steps, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.

The nine monks spewed a mouthful of old blood simultaneously, their faces turning red with frustration; faced with the greatly enhanced Su Mu, the array could no longer confine him.

It was already extremely difficult to form an array on the River of Time; now it was on the verge of collapse.

The next second, Su Mu’s hand released the compass, crashing towards the array.

Pat—

The array instantly shattered, and the nine monks bled from their orifices, kneeling on the ground.

Su Mu stepped out of the array, standing on the long river.

This scene happened in a flash; before anyone could react, Su Mu was already out of the array and back on the river.

Seeing Su Mu return to the River of Time, Elder Ling heaved a heavy sigh of relief.

From the moment Fellow Daoist Su stood on the River of Time, the outcome of this battle was decided.

The nine monks lay despairingly on the water surface, unable to hold on any longer, and finally sunk beneath, slowly corroded by the Water of Time....

The woman in green, seeing Su Mu return to the River of Time, finally revealed a look of despair in her eyes.

She had already failed.

Clutching her long sword tightly, she charged at Su Mu.

Seeing this, Su Mu grasped the void, and the woman in green’s neck was pinned, suspended in mid-air.

With a slight squeeze, the woman in green’s dantian shattered instantly, plummeting onto the river surface.

She then sank into the water, feeling her body continuously descending. She slowly closed her eyes, accepting her death with peace.

There was no way out; the moment Su Mu returned to the river, even if she wanted to run, she couldn’t.

The only option was to fight.

Awaiting the Venerable Lord to save her.

But, having sunk into the River of Time, she waited in vain for the Venerable Lord’s rescue, realizing...she had been abandoned.

She was just a discarded pawn, consumed by despair and regret as the Water of Time devoured her, dissipating her....

...

Thus, this meticulously planned assassination attempt ended in failure.

Not only did they not achieve their goal, they failed to cause any harm, and Su Mu greatly strengthened from it. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Seeing such an outcome, Elder Ling was quite surprised, but upon reflection, it seemed rather normal.

This is precisely the strength one would expect from someone guarding the River of Time.

Although the assassination was thwarted, the crisis was not yet resolved.

Su Mu turned, gazing at the flood peak he had frozen. Once he released the freeze, the flood would still surge downstream.

...

Just as Su Mu contemplated how to manage the flood, Elder Ling rowed over beside Su Mu.

"Daoist friend, are you unharmed?"

Elder Ling inquired of Su Mu.

Hearing this, Su Mu waved his hand, saying, "I’m fine."

"Fellow Daoist Su, I really must apologize. I couldn’t even be of any assistance." Elder Ling laughed awkwardly.

With these words, Su Mu waved his hand, saying, "They were targeting me anyway."

"Moreover, you especially came to inform me about this flood, which was a great help."

.....

"No, no, I didn’t really help at all." Elder Ling waved it off.

Seeing Su Mu at a loss, Elder Ling asked, "Fellow Daoist Su, are you pondering how to manage the flood?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mu turned, surprised, and asked, "Do you have a solution?"

"Not exactly a solution, but I know a place that can be used for flood control," Elder Ling responded.

....

"What kind of place?" Su Mu was also surprised; after guarding the river for so many years, he had never discovered such a place.

"If you trust me, please follow me," Elder Ling said.

Saying that, Elder Ling turned the boat around.

At this point, Su Mu waved his large hand, releasing the flood peak from its frozen state.

The flood, like a fierce beast, surged towards the two of them.

This startled Elder Ling greatly.

The next second, once near Su Mu, the flood came to a stop; every step Su Mu took, the flood followed slowly.

Witnessing this, Elder Ling couldn’t help but swallow hard.

The Time Flood, before Su Mu, was as docile as a lamb.
