After Tianluo’s death, the nine monks did not seem surprised, nor did they lose their composure; they continued to sit firmly on the river’s surface, reciting scriptures.
This shows that Tianluo’s death did not affect the plan this ti.
Tianluo’s task was to delay the River Guardian as much as possible, to lull him into complacency and lure him into the array; his mission was thus accomplished.
However, what the nine of them did not expect was... this exceedingly aloof Tianluo would choose betrayal at the last mont.
Even attempting to reveal the "true na" of the one behind them.
He died appropriately.
The sigh is, was choosing such a way to die really worth it?
....
anwhile, in a certain chaotic space-ti.
"It seems your subordinates are not that loyal to you."
An ethereal voice echoed, laced with a hint of mockery.
"Those are pawns, not subordinates; I don’t have subordinates in the true sense, all are pawns."
"Do you still believe in the so-called ’loyalty’ now?"
Another cold voice echoed back, defiantly.
This statent silenced that other voice.
In their eyes, everything is like an ant; anything usable is a pawn.
Loyalty?
Such a ridiculous, lowly word.
At their level, they have long surpassed any base "emotion" or "feeling," treating all things like straw dogs.
"I’ve already lost a decent pawn, what about you?"
After a while, that cold voice questioned.
"Already gone." An elderly voice replied.
...
"Why is he on the River of Ti? If he brings that creature into ’that path,’ it will be troubleso..."
"I don’t know, perhaps they’ve placed foolish hope on that creature."
"However, the present him poses no threat. He is no longer who he once was, incapable of affecting us."
...
On the Long River, Su Mu was trapped in the array but did not panic.
Because brute force couldn’t break through this array.
He sat down slowly, entering the Void ditation State, and fully released his Divine Sense to find a way to break the array.
At this mont, nearby, Zero on the wooden boat, felt sowhat confused.
Should he... forcibly kill these nine people, take Su Mu into that path first, hide for a while, and avoid this killing trap.
Because... no matter how strong that being behind them is, it’s impossible to unleash another "Ti Flood" in such a short ti.
After all, to erase Su Mu, they even sacrificed many worlds in the Ten Thousand Realms, countless Immortal Domains, countless worlds were destroyed...
So, for this killing trap, the opponent must have paid a considerable price.
As long as they can evade it, the opponent can’t launch a second one shortly.
They could buy a lot of ti.
Ti is very important.
Not only does he need ti, but he also suspects Su Mu might also need ti to grow, to strategize.
....
Thinking of this, Zero slowly looked up, took out a piece of purple-black short bamboo from his sleeve.
First, forcibly kill these nine people.
Just as he was about to move, the entire wooden boat began to shake, a powerful pressure descended upon him.
The next mont, a Divine Thought echoed in his mind: "Watch closely, see if your choice is wrong or right."
Feeling this pressure, Zero’s heart was also thrown into turmoil.
The opponent could directly impose pressure on the River of Ti?!
Once he took action, that pressure would instantly obliterate his mortal body.
It seems the opponent considered him in their plans as well.
....
At this mont, Boss, Second Brother, Third Brother, etc., were supposed to rush into the River of Ti but instead charged into a void space.
The six of them were trapped in this void space.
.....
The Second Brother noticed the strange nature of this void space: "Did you notice... the space here is static?"
Once the words fell, the other five released their Divine Sense to observe this mysterious void space.
"This space has nothing in it, to be precise, nothing tangible," the Boss frowned.
Third Brother retracted his Divine Sense, speaking with a solemn expression: "Not only is there nothing tangible, even the law doesn’t exist."
"It seems... even ti is static. I can’t feel the passage of ti," the ticulous Fourth Sister checked the flow speed of her blood within, and the Spiritual Power in her Dantian, all static.
"No!"
"It’s not that ti is static."
"In this space, ti simply doesn’t exist!" Xiao Wu exclaid.
Upon this remark, everyone was stunned in their tracks.
"We clearly took the usual path to the River of Ti; we’ve traveled this route many tis. Why did we end up here?"
This comnt by Xiao Liu instantly awakened the others.
"It seems we’ve been trapped."
"The enemy had long discovered our movents, severed our path, preventing us from reaching the River of Ti to help the Master," Boss sharply pinpointed the current situation.
...
"Follow ."
"Let’s see if I can try my luck and find a way out."
Fourth Sister Jin Yao said to the others.
Soon, the other five followed behind Jin Yao.
However, after walking a big circle, they found themselves back at the original spot.
It seems, even with Fourth Sister’s luck, she couldn’t find a way out of this space.
They’ve fought together for many years—trusting Third Brother in danger, and relying on Jin Yao in a desperate situation.
Every ti they found themselves in a dire situation, Jin Yao would find the most perfect path to inexplicably resolve the crisis.
But now, even Jin Yao had no way out.
In the face of absolute power, everything seed futile.
...
At this mont, a deep sense of helplessness overwheld the six of them.
They did not fear death; they ca with the intent of facing death.
But they didn’t expect... they didn’t even have the qualification to die for their Master...
....
They speculated.
Possibly, it wasn’t just them; everyone trying to ascend to the River of Ti was probably unable to.
Because to prevent any accidents, the enemy temporarily severed the road to the River of Ti, preventing anyone from setting foot on it!
aning, no one could reach the River of Ti to help the Master now!
Other than praying, they couldn’t do anything, not even die for the Master!
....
Never before had the Boss felt such confusion as at this mont; he didn’t know what to do next, what to do, how to get out.
Boom—
A loud crash made this void space start shaking.
It seed sothing colossal was colliding with the space they were in!
