Before transmigrating, Su Mu guarded the reservoir, holding five insurances and one housing fund, fishing every day, and living a life of lying down, but during a wild fishing trip, he touched a hi...
Chapter 506 Why did you trap me in the long river? Time is accelerating its collapse
"Brother Su, come and play often!"
The old man with white eyebrows waved at Su Mu, his eyes full of reluctance.
After seeing Su Mu's strength, the old man with white eyebrows became more determined about the new path he had chosen!
He changed his mindset. By following Brother Su, he might be able to truly get in touch with the truth of the Ten Thousand Worlds, see the end of cultivation, and know whether the Ten Thousand Worlds have a life span.
He was no longer interested in cultivation or improving his own strength; what interested him were the "truths"!
If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die in the evening!
When Su Mu returned home, it was already late at night.
The two barrier beasts guarding the front gate were rarely asleep. They had black circles on their heads and waited until their master came back before they dared to take a rest.
As long as the owner is not at home, they will be highly focused, keeping their eyes and ears open. This high-intensity mental tension is also a huge drain on the barrier beasts.
Because this is on the long river of time, every drop of water, every tree, and every blade of grass here are not simple. They need to pay attention to any movement at all times.
Just like, if you let a great immortal cultivator sit cross-legged in front of the long river of time, watching the water of time flow away, after watching for a long time, this immortal cultivator will also have a mental breakdown.
Because what you are watching is not just ordinary river water flowing, but the time of countless worlds flowing!
Therefore, not everyone can see this long river of time with the naked eye!
When the two of them were guarding the stone gate, they were in that iron wall barrier, which was under the long river of time. The rules of time were not that strong, so they were able to guard it for many years. Even so, they needed to hibernate and sleep for a long time to maintain their energy.
After seeing their master coming home, the two barrier beasts fell asleep leaning against each other.
The river is quiet, and the only sounds you can hear are the gurgling water and the coming and going breathing.
The little ones at home have already fallen asleep and rested.
This was a rule that Su Mu forced upon them. At night, everyone had to sleep and rest, not continue working, and certainly not go out.
Now is a critical period. It is very dangerous on the long river at night. It is impossible to predict how the enemy will appear and what kind of trap they will set for you.
It’s okay if he gets involved, but it will be troublesome if the little ones at home get involved. He can’t ensure their safety in extreme situations.
Looking at these sleeping little guys, Su Mu also sighed softly.
Wait a little longer, it will be soon.
I'll be able to take you out of here soon.
Su Mu sat under the tree, facing the long river, watching the water surge away, and he also fell into deep thought.
Although the abyss that swallowed the river water was filled today and a hole was repaired, it did not actually solve the cause of the water level drop.
He had noticed the water level drop a year earlier, and probably even earlier.
Because by the time he noticed the water level, it was likely that the water level had already dropped a long time ago.
Therefore, the water level may have started to drop slowly a year ago, two years ago, or even a few years ago, but Su Mu did not notice it.
By the time he noticed it, it had already dropped a full meter.
If Old Yang was not deceiving himself, and the abyss suddenly appeared three months ago, then the main reason for the drop in water level was not caused by that abyss. There may be other abysses, and there may be many of them.
Even if Old Yang deceived himself and told lies, the abyss had actually appeared long ago.
That’s definitely not the main reason.
Because Su Mu came to this river less than ten years ago, even if the abyss appeared ten years ago, even after ten years of swallowing, it is impossible for the water level of the entire main river to drop by more than one meter.
His river affinity is close to 90%, and no one knows this river better than him.
This river is ridiculously large and wide, and its water storage capacity is also astonishing.
The abyss is a hundred meters wide, and the amount of water it can swallow per second is astonishingly large. However, compared with the entire river, it is nothing at all. It is no exaggeration to say that it is just a drop in the ocean.
Therefore, even if the hundred-meter-deep abyss is allowed to swallow water for hundreds or thousands of years, it is impossible for the water level of the main river to drop by ten centimeters.
Then there is only one possibility, that is, in some corners of the long river, there is a situation worse than the abyss swallowing up the river water crazily.
However, he expanded his consciousness and covered most of the river, but did not find anything unusual.
This made Su Mu very depressed.
Logically speaking, he should be able to detect any movement on the river, but he couldn't detect anything with such a big noise. It was really weird.
At that time, he also carefully looked at the environment around the abyss, and did not find any formations that could evade his divine sense.
What made Su Mu feel a sense of urgency was that the water level had been dropping at an abnormally fast rate recently.
He first noticed the water level dropping a year ago.
Now, only a year has passed, and the water level has dropped another half a meter.
At this rate, it will only take a few years for the water level in the main river to drop by five or six meters, and many tributaries of this long river will dry up completely, and countless lives will die.
If it takes ten or several dozen years, this river will be completely ruined and dried up.
So, he had to find the reason.
Moreover, as long as you find those abnormal situations and solve them, you can get a lot of favor points, which can greatly speed up the refining process.
According to Old Yang's description, the abyss was most likely man-made.
Therefore, the person who blasted out the abyss was not simply destroying the river, but was most likely coming for himself.
I don’t know if they are the same people who targeted me before.
But why do they do this?
What good will it do them?
Creating trouble for yourself?
Trapping myself here, unable to leave the river?
Because if the Changhe River encounters a very bad situation and he fails to deal with it in time, causing the ecology to become increasingly worse, the favor points that Su Mu normally earns will be greatly reduced.
This is because the system will automatically judge itself as irresponsible and ignore extremely dire situations.
In this regard, Su Mu really wanted to complain:
My brother Tongzi, you have to understand one thing, it’s not that I won’t deal with it, it’s not that I ignore it, but I just don’t know what’s going on!
However, except for himself, no one knew that he had to refine this river before he could leave, not even Nannan.
Why destroy the river and create trouble for yourself?
