Guarding the River of Time
Chapter 515 - 505: Repairing the River of Time, Earth-Shattering Methods!
Because this abyss happens to be at the intersection of these ten tributary waters and the terrain is low-lying, there are only two solutions.
The first method is to change the direction of the surrounding ten tributaries to avoid this abyss.
This method is very difficult, as it involves creating ten new flow paths while maintaining the order of each tributary, which is an immense task.
The second method is to fill this abyss, solving the problem fundamentally without affecting the original flow.
However, the abyss is bottomless, even Su Mu’s divine sense cannot reach it, making it more difficult than the first method.
.....
Let’s try the first method first.
Thinking of this, Su Mu spread his hands, simultaneously controlling the ten tributary waters and began to change direction.
The ten streams, like ten giant dragons, started to weave, transform, and circulate under Su Mu’s command.
Seeing this scene, Elder Bai Mei in the distance only felt parched, subconsciously swallowing a gulp of saliva. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶
This Water of Time, in Brother Su’s hands, is just like a toy, so easily controlled, with such mastery.
.....
After several attempts, either the streams intertwined, couldn’t avoid the abyss, or left one tributary behind, no matter how Su Mu tried, he couldn’t perfectly redirect all ten streams.
Because the position of this abyss is so awkward, right at the core intersection, coupled with its hundred-meter-wide area, it is simply unmanageable.
After dozens of attempts, all ended in failure.
This first method seems to be infeasible.
....
Su Mu turned his head and looked at the sediment and mud at the riverbed.
He waved his hand, causing the river water to coil up, transforming into ten "hand palms".
With a thought from Su Mu, these "hand palms" made from river water instantly froze into ice palms.
He controlled the ice palms to dig into the muddy riverbed.
Like ten gigantic excavators, frantically scooping up the surrounding mud and throwing it into the abyss, attempting to fill it.
Seeing this dreamy scene, Elder Bai Mei was completely stunned.....
Is the River of Time some lowly thing?
When others come to the River of Time, they are cautious, afraid of being eroded by the Water of Time, but Brother Su can throw a party on it!
After half an hour of digging, there was no sign of filling it up.
Su Mu’s divine sense probed the abyss’s bottom but couldn’t detect any trace of the mud, so he stopped filling.
If this continued, all the beds of the ten streams would be dug through, losing both the wife and the army.
This made Su Mu perplexed.
This is the most troublesome situation Su Mu has encountered in years, without exception.
....
Su Mu gazed at the abyss, rubbing his chin.
Got it!
His eyes brightened as he thought of a solution.
He waved his hand, stripping large amounts of river water from the surface, which under Su Mu’s fingers began to change shape, eventually forming a "round disc" over a hundred meters wide.
meters in diameter, 3 meters thick.
As his fingers tightened, the "round disc" solidified, forming an "ice disc cover".
The "ice cover" fell, just covering the abyss’s mouth.
Afterward, Su Mu conjured thousands of "ice cones", tightly reinforcing around the "ice cover".
Since the abyss couldn’t be filled, locking it up and sealing the hole would prevent the surrounding river water from flowing in.
After doing all this, Su Mu stopped the static state of the surrounding tributary waters.
The next second, the water flowed smoothly again, everything returning to normal.
Because the "ice" solidified by Su Mu will never melt unless Su Mu chooses to undo it himself.
......
After watching Su Mu’s series of operations, Elder Bai Mei’s eyes widened, his mind blank.
Everything that happened today showed him what a "dimensional strike" is, what true strength is!
He was very grateful, very grateful that the first time he met Su Mu, he tested him with a friendly attitude, leaving a great impression on him.
Although he did not know if Su Mu considered him a friend, he knew that he had certainly gained Su Mu as a friend!
.....
Elder Bai Mei jogged over, smiling, and said, "Brother Su is like a Demon Lord sent from heaven, truly a worldly Tai Sui God!"
"Amazing!" Then after a long pause, he could only mutter two words, apart from those two words, Elder Bai Mei couldn’t think of any words to describe his current emotions.
Su Mu waved his hand and said, "Brother Yang, you’re overpraising me."
This is just part of his daily work, and he’s started to tire of it. Leaving as soon as possible to showcase his abilities in the outside world is the true skill—what skill is there in strutting on this broken river?
....
The next second, the system broadcast resounded in his mind.
[Congratulations, host, for maintaining river order and restoring water stability, Favor Points +100000]
One hundred thousand Favor Points credited!
Goodness, much more than he imagined!
Su Mu usually encounters these bottomless pits, usually only a few meters deep, and the most he’s been rewarded after successful handling is eight thousand Favor Points.
Unexpectedly, this hundred-meter-deep abyss directly rewarded him with one hundred thousand!
Bring more on!
With ten more, he could successfully refine and break free!
Then, Su Mu turned and asked Elder Bai Mei, "Brother Yang, do you know of any other similar situations?"
Hearing this, Elder Bai Mei shook his head, "I’m not too sure about that."
"I basically don’t leave home most of the time."
Though Elder Bai Mei has lived on the Long River for many years, he spent most of the time at home, leaving the task of fetching water to the headless man.
It’s not that he’s a recluse.
But he’s afraid to wander the River of Time.
If his aura appears in the Ten Thousand Realms, the ones who hunted him down back then would surely notice.
Though most of those who hunted him are either dead or injured, with many not nearly as strong as him now, a few of those old fellows are still firm, and stronger than him, so he doesn’t wander out more.
He’s not worried about losing his "Innate Time Qi," but about that "Transparent Fish" being snatched away.
But now that the "Transparent Fish" is in Brother Su’s hands, in a certain way, it’s a complete relief for his tensioned mind.
....
Hearing this, Su Mu was also a bit disappointed.
It seems that impatience won’t get him there, it’s too hard to get it done in one step.
Take it slow, with another harvest of one hundred thousand Favor Points now, just ninety thousand more to go for complete refinement, very close!
Within a year, at the latest, he just needs one year to completely refinish!
