Guarding the River of Time

Chapter 607 - 597: All Right, Everything Can Be Destroyed Now

In the next second, the Three Pristine Ones looked at each other, seeing the determination in each other’s eyes.

They had no choice but to gamble, to bet that they would ultimately achieve victory in this war.

Their only stake left was their lives.

As long as they could win this war, gain control over the River of Time, they would have a chance at resurrection, a chance to break the final shackles and reach the true other side.

So, they could only choose to use their lives to hold back Su Mu.

Dong——

Dong——

Dong——

The sound of three Chen Drums echoed through the shattered void of the Star Sea, like the voice of the Great Dao, like the Dao Drum and Celestial Chime, endlessly resonating.

In the next second, three golden lotus platforms appeared at the feet of the Three Pristine Ones, gently lifting them upwards.

The entire shattered Star Sea flickered with golden Dao light, the Dao Drum continuously echoed, as if in devout chant. Behind them, countless shadows of believers appeared, bowing and worshipping the Three Pure Ones Dharma Aspect, this was the power of faith.

Many epochs ago, the Three Pristine Ancestors had already followed a "certain existence" to break the shackles of the Primordial World, expanding the "vision" to include All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

They no longer confined themselves to the Primordial Realm, but instead set their sights on All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

Therefore, the followers of the Three Pristine Ancestors spread across many worlds; in many worlds, cultivators regarded the Three as Dao Ancestors, seeing them as the Extreme Dao.

At this moment, they infused all the accumulated power of merit and faith across epochs into their beings, only to delay Su Mu’s steps.

Suddenly, the pupils of the Three Pristine Ones changed, and the Dao Fruits began to gestate in their eyes.

Dong——

With the last sound of the Chen Drum, the bodies of the Three Pristine Ones began to shatter.

Beneath their flesh was the true body of a Dao Fruit.

In an instant, three Dao Fruits stood in the void, illuminating the entire Star Sea World in holy light. Tangible Dao Scripture Runes swirled around the surroundings, completely sealing this void.

Finally, the three Dao Fruits slowly fused into one Seven-Colored Chaos Dao Fruit, suspended high in the void.

Su Mu stopped his steps, slowly lifted his head, and looked at this Seven-Colored Chaos Dao Fruit.

He frowned deeply because he felt no threatening power from this Dao Fruit; it lacked will, lacked the will to attack, and couldn’t even launch an attack against Su Mu.

At this moment, Su Mu’s Divine Sense erupted. As he prepared to break through this Star Sea World in an instant, he was suddenly bounced back.

At this moment, Su Mu understood. The Three Pristine Ones had sacrificed everything, transforming themselves into a Dao Fruit, solely to seal him, to trap him here.

The Three Pristine Ones knew very well that the gap between them and Su Mu was too great, so much that they couldn’t inflict any harm on Su Mu.

Thus, they sacrificed everything, returned to their origin, using the power of collective faith to seal this void, transforming all their cultivation into Dao Runes to seal again, finally merging into the Seven-Colored Dao Fruit to further reinforce this Star Sea World.

The Three Pristine Ones expended all they had, not to defeat Su Mu, but to trap him here, to hold him.

They were both wise and decisive.

Su Mu furrowed his brows; they had brought him the greatest crisis of his life.

The greatest crisis for Su Mu was time.

There were already disturbances from home. If he couldn’t return in time, he couldn’t bear to imagine what might happen there.

The Three Pristine Ones were just a trump card in their hands, the real player was still outside. Without him balancing the situation, they could massacre freely outside.

Thinking of this, Su Mu’s heart became somewhat chaotic.

Suddenly, Su Mu unleashed his aura fully, with no reservations, and punched towards the Boundary Wall.

Boom——

This void began to tremble.

The Seven-Colored Chaos Dao Fruit revealed a crack, but the golden light it emitted continued to illuminate this void.

At this moment, Su Mu turned his head, fixing his gaze on the Seven-Colored Chaos Dao Fruit.

He rose into the air, extending his right hand to grasp the Dao Fruit in the void.

The cracked Dao Fruit had no power to resist, firmly grasped in Su Mu’s hand.

There were only two ways now: one was to forcefully shatter this void and break the Dao Fruit.

The second was to directly refine this Dao Fruit.

Both ways would require a considerable amount of time.

The situation was extremely urgent; he couldn’t delay even for a second. He had to leave here within the time of three breaths.

Every breath he delayed multiplied the danger at home exponentially.

A single breath could mean a lot...

Su Mu grabbed the Seven-Colored Dao Fruit, his eyes stern, and forcibly fused the Dao Fruit into his Dantian Space.

As soon as the Seven-Colored Dao Fruit entered the Dantian Space, Su Mu’s face flushed red.

He operated his Cultivation Technique with full force, controlling the Dao Fruit in the Dantian Space, preventing it from emitting golden light to reinforce the world.

Su Mu used his flesh to forcibly control the Dao Fruit, then he punched towards the Boundary Wall.

Boom——

The sound of shattering resounded.

In an instant, the Star Sea void began to rapidly collapse.

At this moment, the Seven-Colored Dao Fruit in the Dantian Space emitted a strong golden light, attempting to repair the collapsing space.

How could Su Mu give it the chance? He forcefully absorbed the emitted golden light, refining it completely.

This method of forcibly breaking through the boundary was utter madness!

If Su Mu’s body were even a bit weaker, at the moment he attacked the Star Sea Space with full force, the Seven-Colored Dao Fruit would have completely shattered his flesh, breaking free.

Su Mu relied entirely on his own body, pressing the Dao Fruit firmly within his Dantian Space.

....

Suddenly, the Star Sea World collapsed, turning into countless fragments.

The surrounding scene began to change, and Su Mu returned to the surface of the river.

After escaping the Barrier, Su Mu didn’t pause for a moment. He vanished from the spot, rushing crazily towards home at his maximum speed.

His speed was at its peak, as if he had completely merged into the River of Time.

A journey that would normally take ten breaths, Su Mu took less than one breath to return home.

Standing on the riverbank, Su Mu sensed something, froze completely, standing still.

From afar, he looked at his home, hesitating to step onshore.

Because it seemed he could no longer sense any presence from home, it felt empty...

At this moment, his Sea of Consciousness churned, his heart throbbed, showing signs of emotional instability...

He could feel it clearly, his Dao Heart seemed to be in turmoil, a very dangerous omen.

He never expected that one day, his Dao Heart would also be in turmoil.

Standing still on the spot, he hesitated to step onshore, fearing to see a scene that would completely shatter his Dao Heart...
