"I know nothing," Jiang Bai tried his best to control his emotions and remain calm.
Hearing this, Su Mu chose not to press further.
Over the years, every enemy who ca to test him shared one common trait: "loyalty," willing to be killed rather than divulge even the slightest hint.
He was curious about what kind of Gu the person behind them had used, compelling them to disregard life and death, preferring self-destruction without compromising even a bit.
Thus, Su Mu never intended for the white-robed man to speak voluntarily.
His Divine Sense directly invaded the white-robed man’s Sea of Consciousness, ready to forcibly extract his mories.
The mont Su Mu’s Divine Sense was about to enter Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness.
A powerful Divine Thought blocked his Divine Sense from entering.
He could sense that this Divine Thought did not belong to Jiang Bai; it likely ca from the orchestrator behind him.
Su Mu prepared to forcibly break through this Divine Thought. After several breaths of stalemate, the Divine Thought finally couldn’t resist Su Mu’s invasion, allowing him to successfully enter Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness.
When Jiang Bai realized his Sea of Consciousness had been breached, he panicked imdiately.
He knew very well that once his mory faced the risk of being stolen, the one in charge would unhesitatingly eliminate him.
But his body’s ridians had been solidified by the Water of Ti, preventing him from activating his Cultivation Technique. His entire Sea of Consciousness had completely lost control, leaving him at Su Mu’s rcy for exploration.
He calculated everything, but didn’t anticipate that Su Mu could escape the trap set by the one in charge so quickly and arrive here.
To know, the ambush set by the one in charge was separated by a thousand tributaries, equivalent to countless worlds apart. Moreover, this distance wasn’t rely a "spatial" separation but a combined "ti" and "space" distance.
If Jiang Bai had to travel it himself, it would take him at least several decades, perhaps even hundreds of years, to traverse so many tributaries, and success would not be guaranteed due to his inability to remain in the River of Ti for such a long duration.
Yet this River Guardian took only three breaths from entering the ga to breaking it and arriving here!
In other words... the River Guardian’s mastery over the River of Ti had reached an unimaginably terrifying level!
This was an extrely crucial ssage, but he had no way to relay it to the one in charge.
.....
Su Mu successfully entered Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness and discovered a bizarre phenona.
All mories in Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness were fragnted.
In other words, Jiang Bai shattered all his past mories into tiny fragnts, so reduced to rely seconds.
Staring at the vast sea of mory fragnts, Su Mu was taken aback.
If Jiang Bai had lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years, shattering those years of mory into seconds-long fragnts would result in astronomical numbers.
Tens of thousands of years, and that’s just Su Mu’s conservative estimate. Looking at the Sea of Consciousness filled with fragnts, how many years would it be?
Hundreds of thousands?
Millions??!
...
He couldn’t imagine the white-robed man’s imnse determination to achieve this.
The entirety of the mory fragnted, aning his entire being existed in constant "chaos," potentially forgetting soone he t just a second ago.
Because a second’s mory had beco a fragnt, rged into the vast sea of mories. To recall the person’s appearance or na from just a second ago required searching within this massive ocean.
And it had to be accurate, which was an extre test of one’s Divine Sense.
Primarily, can one really maintain a normal life like that...
If one wanted to accomplish anything, their Divine Sense must operate at the extre every mont, fragnting, searching, integrating, and reconnecting continuously.
Over ti, one’s spirit might collapse.
Thus, when Su Mu saw this mory sea, he truly admired Jiang Bai’s resolve.
It seed the opponent went to such lengths to prevent mory theft; truly... remarkable!
.....
Looking at the imnse mory sea, Su Mu did not intend to give up but instead unleashed his Divine Sense, locking onto the mory sea.
Searching each mory fragnt, like piecing together a puzzle, correctly joining fragnts to restore a complete mory.
During this process, Su Mu needed to ensure the reconstructed mory fragnts were what he sought.
This would be an imnse test of Divine Sense, nearly an impossible task, but for Su Mu, it wasn’t too difficult.
Su Mu divided his Divine Sense into tens of millions of parts, concurrently deducing and piecing together, akin to tens of millions of powerful Divine Senses simultaneously "deducing and piecing" in Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness. To Jiang Bai, this was an extre tornt.
At this mont, Jiang Bai’s complexion was pale, his entire body shaking uncontrollably as if countless needles pierced his Sea of Consciousness. Within just a few breaths, he was already on the verge of collapse.
However, his entire body, frozen by the Water of Ti, forcefully sustained his life.
Accurately speaking, ti and lifespan were static and solidified in him; even in death, he couldn’t die because his life force was solidified.
Su Mu didn’t know that his unintended actions created a perfect opportunity for himself, allowing freedom to explore Jiang Bai’s mories.
He didn’t realize this was the Water of Ti; he only intended to control Jiang Bai’s physical body, inadvertently also controlling Jiang Bai’s "life force."
Jiang Bai didn’t know if he was "dead," and it was this fear of the unknown continually assaulting his psychological defenses.
He knew that all his mories were fragnted.
This was required by the one in charge, because he accessed the core plan and had to ensure his Sea of Consciousness was perpetually in "chaos" to prevent a soul search.
An additional point was that should an enemy attempt to forcibly reconstruct the vast array of mory fragnts, the soul-searched Jiang Bai would not withstand such intensity and would self-destruct.
This perfectly thwarted the enemy’s soul search thod, preventing worry about mory theft even if captured.
Yet he never anticipated that Su Mu would use the Water of Ti to forcibly solidify his "life!"
Because not only he, even the one in charge, overlooked an extrely crucial intel: Su Mu’s mastery of the River of Ti had reached the extent of freezing the Water of Ti?!
