Chapter 587: Three Figures, the Ultimate Dao (Revised)

"At first, I thought so too. I had the same idea as you guys."

"Being able to guard the long river of time, being able to practice on the long river of time, and being able to control the long river of time means that he has long been invulnerable."

"At the very least, we have already transcended all lust. This is a consensus, and you and I both know it."

"So, our plan all along has been to target him personally."

"But after so many attempts, we all ended in failure."

After that, the other two remained silent.

Ever since they started playing chess with the "River Guardian", they have never been successful. Every move they made was easily solved by the opponent, and they couldn't even cause any substantial damage to him.

They have always been at a disadvantage and in a passive state.

Because he stands above the long river of time, occupies a high position and a high point, while they can only hide in the chaotic void here.

Even when they want to carry out a layout plan for the Ten Thousand Worlds, such as setting up the Divine Punishment Gate, they have to find ways to delay him and keep him away from the long river of time for a short period of time to ensure the implementation of the plan without being discovered by him.

So, from beginning to end, they were passive.

It is equivalent to the enemy being in the dark and you being in the light.

"You all know that our strategy has always been to find his weaknesses."

"But, after trying so many times, have we found it?"

"Answer me!"

The third chaotic figure suddenly raised his tone a little and questioned the other two.

"You didn't find it, did you?"

"He is impeccable, invincible, and flawless in the long river of time."

"If we continue to search like this, and wait for him to completely control the river of time one day, will we still be his opponent?"

"Or in other words, are we still qualified to be opponents?"

"Answer me!"

The voice of the first chaotic figure continued to echo in the void, deafening.

"So, should we change direction?"

"Shouldn't we find flaws in him?"

"Shouldn't we consider whether there are flaws outside of himself?"

"Answer me!"

After this series of questions, the other two were completely confused and did not continue to respond to him.

"I spent a lot of effort to deduce his whereabouts, his movements, and his living habits."

"Finally, I found a possible flaw."

"When the long river of time enters the 'eternal night', no matter where he is in the long river of time or in what time and space, he will return to a certain place."

Upon hearing this, the second Chaos figure said, "That place is his residence?"

Hearing this, the first Chaos figure nodded.

"He's been hanging around outside for so long, what's so strange about him returning to his own mansion?"

"Yes, patrolling the river at sunrise and returning home at night, isn't this normal?" The third chaotic figure also asked back.

"You overlooked one thing."

"Is he afraid of the eternal night?"

The first Chaos figure asked.

"No, from our intelligence, he is not afraid of the 'eternal night of time' under the long river of time." The second chaotic figure replied.

"He is not afraid of the eternal night of time, and he does not go home to escape the eternal night. Then why does he go home?" The first chaotic figure asked the most crucial question to the other two.

After saying that, the third chaotic figure retorted: "Can't he just go home and sleep?"

"sleep?"

"How could you say this word?" The second chaotic figure glared at him and continued, "Of course it's his lifestyle. He's used to going home every night. Isn't that normal?"

“It’s not normal.”

"I speculate"

"He went home not because he was afraid of the eternal night of time, but because someone in his family was afraid of the eternal night of time!"

After these words were spoken, the other two were stunned for a moment, and were suddenly enlightened.

"You mean he goes home every day because he's worried about the safety of his family?" The second chaotic figure asked the key point directly.

"So, the flaw is not in him, but in his family."

"He cares a lot about his home, so there must be someone or something very important to him in his home."

"We just need to find a way to get this person and this thing, and we can gain the upper hand to a certain extent."

The first chaotic figure said slowly.

"This is just your speculation. What if it's not the case?" The second Chaos figure said, "What if even if we have the most important thing to him, we can't threaten him at all?"

Hearing this, the first Chaos figure looked into the dark void and said slowly: "We can only gamble."

"And now, we have reached the point where we have no choice but to take action."

"Even if we can't find his flaws, we have to face him head-on."

"We don't have time to wait."

After these words were spoken, the three of them fell into a brief silence.

"In fact, it's time to take action. We have been setting up the network for so many years, it's time to close it." The second chaotic figure echoed.

"Then make your move. We have been secretly fighting him for so many years. It's time to overturn the chessboard."

The third figure also spoke.

"Have you determined the coordinates of his mansion?" the second figure asked.

"We have roughly determined a location, and the error will not exceed 100,000 time and space times."

"The problem now is that I have to hold him back for a long time before I can reach his residence in person." said the first chaotic figure.

"Let me go. I fought him once."

“This time, I will go there in person and try to delay him as much as possible.” The third chaotic figure recommended himself.

After he finished speaking, the first figure spoke out to stop him, "No, it would be too dangerous if you go there alone."

"I'll go too. What if, together with him, we go there in person and kill him directly? Maybe his strength is not as strong as we imagined?" The second chaotic figure said with a smile.

"No, I have already arranged the person to hold him back."

"You want to use those three people?" The third chaotic figure also looked surprised.

"If we want to hold him back for a long time, we can only use the three of them."

The timeline returned to normal.

At this moment, Su Mu stood on the long river, waiting quietly.

Heavy and low sounds came from the surrounding water surface.

The next second, three huge stone gates slowly emerged from the water.

Three stone gates rose high, surrounding Su Mu in the center.

In front of these three huge stone gates, there were three human figures standing respectively, with a myriad of Taoist charms.
