Chapter 540: Chapter 530: Jiang Yue Shines Illusory upon the Void, No Final Chapter at the End of the Dao

The Chaotic Human Shadow looked at Su Mu, his pupils devoid of any battle intent.

Because above the River of Time, he wasn’t fully confident.

He turned his head, looking at Jiang Bai, who was frozen in place, and with a wave of his large hand, prepared to obliterate all traces of Jiang Bai.

Seeing this, Su Mu’s aura burst forth, ready to take Jiang Bai into the Dantian Space, as he couldn’t lose this important hostage.

But he overlooked one point, the true target of the Chaotic Human Shadow wasn’t to kill Jiang Bai, because the Water of Time had frozen Jiang Bai’s life force, even he couldn’t temporarily kill Jiang Bai.

Although Su Mu blocked the attack from the Chaotic Human Shadow, his Divine Sense had already invaded Jiang Bai’s mind, extinguishing everything in his Sea of Consciousness.

After his Sea of Consciousness was wiped out, Jiang Bai’s eyes became hollow, standing motionless like a sculpture.

In the eyes of the Chaotic Human Shadow, from the moment Jiang Bai set foot on the River of Time, he was considered a discarded piece, so when erasing him, there was no hesitation.

What he didn’t expect was that Su Mu could actually freeze the Water of Time, freezing Jiang Bai’s life force, which was miscalculation on his part, forcing him to personally take a trip above the river.

After erasing Jiang Bai’s memories, the Chaotic Human Shadow prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Su Mu also waved his hand, manipulating the river water, the water curtain rose, forming four walls, creating an enclosed space, trapping the Chaotic Human Shadow inside to prevent his escape.

With a thought, the water curtain solidified into ice, sealing off the surroundings completely.

Seeing this scene, the Chaotic Human Shadow widened his eyes.

He thought Su Mu could only freeze a small part of the Water of Time, but didn’t expect his control over the River of Time had reached such a level.

The barrier space formed by the frozen Water of Time essentially froze all "laws", because the Time Law is above all laws, completely nullifying most of the Chaotic Human Shadow’s means.

....

However, after being trapped, he didn’t show any panic, quite the contrary, he was very calm.

Since he could set foot on the River of Time, he had already considered this possibility.

Seeing the Chaotic Human Shadow having no intentions to make a move, Su Mu was also taken aback, frowning.

The Chaotic Human Shadow smiled and said, "My mistake, a price after all must be paid."

After speaking, his body began to burn.

At this point, Su Mu noticed that the opponent was not even the main body, just an avatar!

For an avatar to reach such power, one can only imagine how terrifying the main body’s power must be.

Just as the Chaotic Human Shadow’s avatar was about to be extinguished, he turned his head, memorizing the appearance and aura of Fang on the nearby boat.

Fang also felt the gaze of the Chaotic Human Shadow, and his heart trembled.

He knew he had been targeted.....

....

In just a breath, the avatar of the Chaotic Human Shadow burned out, turning into countless light particles, falling into the river.

After being trapped by the Time Barrier, he didn’t hesitate, decisively abandoning his avatar, showing his strong resolve.

For this kind of powerful avatar, it wasn’t an ordinary one, abandoning it was extremely costly, almost like injuring oneself deeply.

...

To ensure Su Mu got no clues or traces, he destroyed it thoroughly, leaving no way out.

Watching the dispersal of the avatar, Su Mu’s pupils shimmered, clenching his fists unconsciously, having finally gotten such an opportunity, only to see him slip away.

However, this also sounded an alarm for Su Mu, that the enemy was much more powerful than he had imagined, as just an avatar exerted significant pressure.

.....

Su Mu’s thought moved, and the barrier formed by the frozen Water of Time began to melt, turning back into the Water of Time, the river returned to calm.

Yet, the crimson color of the river and the faint scent of blood lingering in the air still narrated the brutality of this epic battle.

Even though it was merely a clash of auras, it’s unknown how many worlds fell into temporal turbulence, or how many worlds saw countless creatures exterminated due to the chaos of space-time, those lucky enough became wandering spirits in the temporal turbulence, and the unlucky ones already perished in the fractured space-time.

Such a level of battle, even the aftermath alone, inflicted immeasurable damage to the Ten Thousand Realms.

...

With Jiang Bai’s Sea of Consciousness wiped, his eyes were vacant, standing stationary like a statue, he had long since died, or rather, when Su Mu deduced his memories, he was already dead, his life force frozen by the Water of Time, and when the Water of Time unfroze, his life force vanished completely.

.....

Jiang Bai, who lived for hundreds of epochs, left numerous indelible legends in countless ancient histories, he was the Dao Ancestor, Saint Master of many worlds, and the faith in the hearts of generations.

About Jiang Bai, ancient histories contain a phrase extolling his greatness - "Jiang Yue illuminates the void in the sky, the end of the path has no final Chapter"

Yet such a legend, in the hand wave of these supreme beings, concluded.

Such is the drama, greatness and legend are relative, your greatness, in some people’s eyes, is but a joke.

...

All meaningful memories of Jiang Bai, pointless legends, turned to nothingness with a wave of the hand.

Laughable, pitiful, and lamentable.

.....

Su Mu gazed at the mere shell of Jiang Bai, sighed lightly and with a wave of his hand, lifted the freezing.

As the time freeze was lifted, Jiang Bai’s life force dissipated, falling into the river, sinking slowly.

His physical body will transform into the grains of sand at the riverbed, becoming a minuscule part of the River of Time.

Perhaps in the long course of time, the hefty river sand is built from the bodies of these mighty figures.

Yet time cannot be history books, only the remains tell of its weight.

.....

The Chaotic Human Shadow perished, Jiang Bai sank to the riverbed, everything settled, everything quieted, leaving only Fang stunned on the wooden boat, and Su Mu standing on the Long River.

This clash, Su Mu emerged victorious.

Only, Su Mu wasn’t very satisfied, having considered everything, yet still didn’t achieve expectations.

However, the significance is substantial, not only did he uncover the mastermind, but also learned some secrets.

....

Su Mu lowered his head, gazing at the blood-colored waters, and with a sweep of his hand, performed Purification.

However, though the waters were purified, all the fish in this area of the water were extinguished.

...

Having handled everything, Su Mu then turned, looking at Fang, smiling as he said, "Fang."

These words brought Fang’s blank mind back to reality.

...

"Su... Elder Su."

Fang clasped his hands in respect, stammering.
