"Where are you going?"

"Back where I came from."

Su Mu thought this guy was kind of silly, not very smart.

"But..."

Duan Jiude looked at the River of Time, feeling a bit lost, because it was the Gang Leader who brought him here, and he didn't know how to return.

"Senior, I have a small request, I don't know if I should say it."

"Speak."

"Could you trouble Senior to send me back?"

Duan Jiude asked cautiously.

"Send you back?"

"Emm... that might be a bit difficult."

It's not that Su Mu was unwilling, but he couldn't leave here now, even if he wanted to send him back, he couldn't.

Upon hearing this, Duan Jiude instantly understood the meaning, took out a Space Ring from his sleeve, and handed it to Su Mu, saying: "This is a little token of my appreciation."

He thought Su Mu was hinting that he should pay more.

Su Mu hesitated for a moment, then took the Space Ring and asked him, "Which direction is your home?"

Duan Jiude pointed downstream, because he and the Gang Leader had come from that direction, he only knew the general direction, but with his abilities, he couldn't find his original world in the vast endless universe.

"Stand firm."

Su Mu raised his right hand and said to Duan Jiude.

In the next second, the water under Duan Jiude's feet became static.

What does it mean to stand firm?

Duan Jiude didn't understand the intention of this powerful man, but he had a bad premonition.

.....

Suddenly, the waters below began to accelerate, rushing downstream at a speed of thirty meters per second.

In just a few breaths, Su Mu already couldn't see Duan Jiude's silhouette, disappearing at the end of the river.

Although Su Mu couldn't leave this river to send him home, he could control the flow of the river to give him a ride, which counts as helping him, right?

.....

In just a few breaths, Duan Jiude didn't know where he had been sent.

Is it possible that he was sent too far?!

In the next second, he fell into a coma, not knowing where he went....

....

Having done all this, Su Mu clapped his hands, feeling pleased.

[Congratulations to the Host! Successfully maintained the order of the river, triggering an extra critical hit, Favor Points +25000]

Upon hearing this, Su Mu's eyes lit up, and he was overjoyed.

What a surprise, a full twenty-five thousand Favor Points, what a windfall!

Indeed, being a righteous man, maintaining peace, is the fastest way to earn Favor Points, and Su Mu discovered a pattern: the larger or more intense the resolved issue, the more Favor Points are feedbacked.

This was the most uncooperative Cross River Man Su Mu had ever encountered, he actually took back his crossing fee!

It's a good thing he ran fast, otherwise, Su Mu would have really taught him a lesson.

.....

Meanwhile, on the Celestial Essence Continent.

At this moment, the Celestial Essence Continent is undergoing a decisive battle.

The void is dark, clouds are desolate, the earth shattered, countless spaces also shattered into a multitude of tiny fragments, with billions of creatures wailing....

In the void closest to "Heaven," several powerful and mighty figures stand, their bodies stained with blood, gravely injured.

In the center, a black-haired man looks at the sky above, his eyes tinged with traces of blood.

The black-haired man is named Chen Nan, and his opponent is none other than this world's "Heavenly Dao!"

Joining Chen Nan in battle are three main allies.

One of them is tall and majestic, clad in black armor, long black hair billowing freely in the wind, his brows and eyes exuding boundless authority, clutching a black halberd, glaring fiercely into the void above.

The towering black-armored man is named Dugu Baitian, the Ancient Forbidden God, one of the strongest beings of all time.

Standing at Chen Nan's upper right is a long-haired red-haired man; although not as burly as the black-armored man, his presence alone represents an invincible legend, equally majestic; he is the ancestor of the Chen Family, a great figure from a previous mythical age.

At this moment, he has been revived, driven by fate and cause-and-effect, for this ultimate showdown.

Behind Chen Nan's left is a long-haired man, his eyes like a deep demonic pool abyss, surrounded by demonic energy; revered by the masses as the Demon Lord of ages past.

The countless figures standing behind them are also Chen Nan's old companions, many of whom are now dead or wounded.

The scent of blood permeates the void, extinguishing even the sun, indicative of the battle's severity....

.....

Heavenly Dao has already become corrupt; tainted by the resentment of all beings, it has plotted over countless eras, repeatedly annihilating beings to constantly strengthen itself.

In the eyes of "Heavenly Dao," all creatures on the Celestial Essence Continent are livestock it nurtures; once fattened, it will turn these "livestock" into nourishment to further itself.

This is the main reason why Chen Nan and the others must unite to eradicate the Heavenly Dao.

....

But despite this, "Heavenly Dao" is still the Heavenly Dao; even if everyone joins forces, they cannot truly destroy it.

The next second, the sky begins to transform, revealing a pair of eyes.

At this moment, Chen Nan and the others look up to meet the gaze of these condescending eyes.

These eyes resemble a snake's pupils, seemingly two pieces of amber, overlooking these "livestock" from above.

Seeing these eyes, Chen Nan and the others knitted their brows, hearts filled with shock.

This is the manifested "Eye of the Celestial Dao!"

....

"If I hadn't been seriously injured, do you think you could have come this far..."

"Ridiculous, even with my strength reduced to one percent, you can't overthrow me."

An ethereal voice echoed.

Hearing these words, everyone was shocked, for they heard from Heavenly Dao's mouth an emotion unique to humans.

Indeed, Heavenly Dao has long been endowed with intelligence, and now possesses human emotions, a terrifying revelation.

Yet, they are puzzled.

Why is "Heavenly Dao" seriously injured?

Because this is their first direct confrontation with Heavenly Dao, even at this stage of the battle, they've yet to inflict substantive harm to Heavenly Dao.

So, the "serious injury" in Heavenly Dao's words, is someone else's doing?

But, foresight ancient and present, in this world, besides them, who else could have the capacity to grievously wound Heavenly Dao?

...

"You rear all beings, disrupt cause and effect, continuously devouring, expanding yourself."

"Even if we don't act, in the future, countless like us will continue to rise against you until you are killed."

Chen Nan, facing the eyes of Heavenly Dao, spoke with firm resolve.

.....

Hearing these words, Heavenly Dao remained unmoved.

A thousand years ago, it was seriously injured on the River of Time, and even a thousand years of recovery hasn't healed it.

Therefore, it plans to prematurely end this era, devour all beings to heal itself, leading bit by bit to create this titanic battle.

Once this era's beings are consumed and its injuries healed, it will commence the next era, nurturing new beings.

The incident on the River of Time a thousand years ago taught it the meaning of worlds beyond worlds.

As the Heavenly Dao of this realm, it was nearly killed on the River of Time by that terrifying man, which made it more resolute in its desire to continuously fortify itself, aspiring to become a higher level "Heavenly Dao!"

For from that experience, it perceived that this world's level isn't high enough; it itself is not perfect enough!

...

"Do you think you all can kill me?"

Heavenly Dao looked down at the ants, speaking disdainfully.
