Guarding the River of Time
Chapter 526 - 516: Sealing the River of Time! Fate Reverberates!
Huang gazed at the Divine Sword that was about to annihilate him, a look of madness flaring in his pupils.
He summoned the Black Tower, and his body began to become unreal.
Bang——
At the moment the Divine Sword collided with the Black Tower, even the Fragment of Spatial Law was obliterated, and the nearby continents were completely incinerated into fragments by the aftershock!
If the battlefield were in Huang’s world, this strike alone would be enough to annihilate countless territories, killing countless creatures!
The battles between high-ranking warriors often shatter continents and even worlds, so the sudden annihilation of some continents is not a "continental catastrophe," but the result of battles involving top-tier warriors.
The Black Tower only resisted for three breaths before it was shattered into pieces, scattered in the void.
After shattering the Black Tower, the phantom image of the Divine Sword’s power did not diminish and still chopped downward toward Celestial Emperor Huang.
Just at the moment the Divine Sword was about to annihilate Celestial Emperor Huang.
The tall and thin man sighed faintly.
Such a pity, such talents, if they could be absorbed and nurtured thoroughly, might even surpass himself in the future.
But this person’s backbone was too hard, unyielding even in death; to prevent leakage of information, he had to be killed. If it affected the master’s plan, he’d be in trouble.
Thus, besides compromising, Huang must die; there is no third path.
......
No miracle occurred; the Divine Sword annihilated Huang’s flesh, even his soul.
To prevent Huang’s consciousness from escaping, the tall and thin man’s Divine Sense had long locked this piece of void, fearing the opponent had a backup plan.
Because at their level of cultivation, it’s very hard to truly kill them due to having too many hidden trump cards. It must be completely cleaned out; if even a bit is missed, the effort will fail.
After Huang’s flesh completely disappeared into smoke and dust, the tall and thin man ran through deductions again, making sure there were no omissions before relaxing.
"Ah, truly a pity....."
He was quite annoyed; what kind of magic does that River Guardian possess?
Why can he make these people rather die than betray...
Cultivating to this realm is extremely difficult, and in his eyes, the correct "betrayal" is actually a wise choice.
....
"My link here is considered a failure."
"I hope they succeed...."
With that, the tall and thin man sighed faintly and left this piece of void.
.....
Meanwhile, in a certain Immortal Domain.
In an Ancient Forest, a small frog jumped out of a creek.
After jumping onto the shore, the small frog transformed into a human figure.
The human figure, pale-faced, leaned against an ancient tree and sat cross-legged.
After cultivating for several hours, the violent energy within gradually calmed down....
The human figure was none other than Huang, who successfully escaped!
The final stage of the "Transform into Freedom" cultivation technique is "Transform into All Things."
Using "Transform into All Things," he preserved everything of himself, choosing an object from all things he had ever seen to reincarnate, successfully shedding his skin like a Golden Cicada, escaping the pursuit of the tall and thin man.
However, he paid a certain price.
For a long time, he would not be able to use the "Transform into Freedom" cultivation technique, nor would he have any life-preserving trump cards.
He gazed into the void, looking at the hidden River of Time.
Analyzing the recent event, it can be inferred that the elder must be in trouble, someone is scheming....
The person scheming is definitely not the tall and thin man.
Because to those standing atop the Ten Thousand Realms’ pyramid, he is merely a minor character. His battle with the tall and thin man is only a skirmish between minor characters; the real bigwigs are still plotting in the shadows.....
What he needs to do now is to bring this important intelligence to the River of Time and inform the elder.
But if he hastily goes to the River of Time now, he’ll most likely be intercepted again, unable to deliver the intelligence and completely perish.
He does not fear death; he is concerned that his death would be meaningless.
....
At this moment, he suddenly realized a problem.
Should he feign agreement and then bring the tall, thin man’s "gift" to the River of Time, and inform the elder of the real situation?
In this way, he could know what the "gift" is and also deliver the intelligence.
The more he thought about it, the more he regretted his damn stubbornness.....
....
After contemplating for a while, he prepared to do something.
He waved his hand, and a Memory Crystal Stone appeared in his palm, recording the detailed situation within it.
This Memory Crystal Stone can’t be sent directly to the River of Time because it is very likely to be intercepted.
He has an extremely bold guess — has the opponent’s side blocked the River of Time to prevent others from entering and disrupting their plans?
Because he was intercepted precisely when preparing to enter the River of Time; it can’t be a coincidence that it happened exactly when he was about to enter the River of Time....
Once such thoughts arise, they continue to grow in his mind, becoming increasingly terrifying....
What kind of power could block the River of Time, preventing them from entering....
The opponent definitely couldn’t just be targeting him.
Because he refused to cooperate with them, they would surely search for others.
Likely, they would look for those with a causal connection to "that elder."
Then, images of Ye Fan and others appeared in his mind!
To be precise, Ye Fan, Wushi, Fierce People are more familiar with the elder, more able to gain the elder’s trust, and more suited to their plans.
So the counterpart is very likely to continue seeking out Ye Fan and the others.
Problem is, it might already be too late now.....
Therefore, he must act quickly!
.......
Thinking to this point.
A solution came to his mind; he must deliver this Memory Crystal Stone to Ye Fan and the others, to make them understand the enemy’s plan in advance, feign compliance and inform.
He waved his hand and took out a transparent Amber from his Dantian Space.
Through the transparent Amber, a small sleeping creature could be seen inside.
...
He sliced open his finger, allowing a drop of blood to drip onto the surface of the Amber.
In the next moment, the Amber began to melt, and a small, cute, plump baby dragon woke up from within.
The little dragon opened its eyes, its pupils like gemstones, shining with Holy Light.
Huang handed the Memory Crystal Stone to the little dragon, his expression serious: "Remember, no matter what, you must deliver this stone into his hands."
"Move with your fastest speed, without stopping for a moment!"
Saying this, Huang transmitted the atmosphere of Ye Fan and the others into the little dragon’s mind.
Upon hearing this, the little dragon nodded heavily, without hesitation, flapping its wings to cut through the space before it, diving into the void and speeding towards a certain world.....
Celestial Emperor Huang gazed toward the void, murmuring: "Hope it’s still in time....."
