Guarding the River of Time-Chapter 326 - 317: Nannan’s Peerless Cultivation Talent Among the All Heavens! What Is a Genius?

Chapter 326: Chapter 317: Nannan’s Peerless Cultivation Talent Among the All Heavens! What Is a Genius?

Su Mu took the notebook, opened the first page, and after reading it, his eyes lit up.

It contained Nannan’s plans for cultivation, including time planning, speculations, and assumptions about cultivation, as well as some "wild imaginations."

After reading it, Su Mu asked in shock, "Did you come up with all of this by yourself?"

Because... Nannan had never been exposed to cultivation, she didn’t even know the basic knowledge, not even understanding the role of the Dantian.

"Not entirely, it’s what I’ve come up with after reading some books lately. I’m not sure if it’s correct," Nannan answered with a smile.

.....

And everything written in this notebook was correct!

All her "wild imaginations" about cultivation were correct, and she even had unique insights.

For example, regarding the formation of the Golden Core, she had speculated several methods, some of which existed in the Long River of history as the crystallization of countless years of Ancient Cultivators’ wisdom, and some were methods for advancement and cultivation that had never appeared in ancient texts.

This means, even though Nannan had never been exposed to cultivation, she could imagine and create new ways from the ancient texts known to the public. If this spread outside, it would cause an enormous sensation.

She’s... She’s only five years old!

At this moment, Su Mu finally deeply understood a saying—In the face of true talent, all efforts become insignificant and laughable.

Su Mu had patrolled the Long River for so many years and encountered countless prodigious talents, but none of their talents could compare to Nannan.

....

"Daddy, I’ve also written time planning on it."

"During the day, I’ll go out patrolling with you as usual. At night, I’ll cultivate. So as not to interfere with your own cultivation, you just need to spare me an hour in the evening to teach."

Nannan said very seriously.

"No, if you want to cultivate, then cultivate well. You don’t need to patrol during the day," Su Mu waved his hand to refuse.

As he finished speaking, Nannan clung to Su Mu’s large hand and said coquettishly, "Please, please, Daddy, I want to be like you. If Daddy can do it, then Nannan certainly can too."

Currently, with Nannan’s cultivation level, she didn’t need to sleep at night. She wanted to meditate and cultivate like her father, experience his life, and also help him.

Su Mu couldn’t resist the charm and then said, "Alright, but if you don’t take cultivation seriously and the results aren’t good, then you need to stay home and cultivate during the day."

"Nannan will work super hard!" Nannan nodded heavily.

"Alright, have a good night’s sleep tonight. We’ll start tomorrow night."

"Okay!"

....

Su Mu returned to the Phoebe Tree.

He slowly took out a treasure delivered by Old Three and Xiao Wu from his sleeve during the day. Upon opening the box, he found a heart-shaped transparent Crystal Stone inside.

Taking it out, the moment it lay in his palm, he could feel his blood and Spiritual Power boiling. He sensed a very pure energy close to the Origin within the Crystal Stone.

It seems Old Three and Xiao Wu have found him an extraordinary treasure.

Su Mu operated the cultivation technique, and the boundless Spiritual Power was channeled into the Crystal Stone, beginning the refining process.....

During the refining process, Su Mu seemed to have a very vivid dream.

He sat cross-legged on a vast void land, watching mountains, rivers, and lakes gradually form before him. Space was gradually birthed, time began to flow, life continued, and his viewpoint witnessed the evolution and development of the world.....

He didn’t know how long it took before the surrounding world began rapidly shrinking, entering Su Mu’s Dantian.

When he suddenly opened his eyes, he realized it was already daylight.

Nannan was also looking at him with a worried expression.

"Nannan..." Su Mu called softly.

"Daddy, are you alright?" Nannan asked anxiously.

Su Mu slowly stood up, rubbed his temples, and asked, "What happened to me?"

Only then did he notice the messy courtyard, with chairs and benches overturned everywhere.

"Daddy was cultivating last night, and you suddenly turned into... a golden light ball and made the courtyard like this."

"Daddy, are you okay?"

Nannan was also worried whether something went wrong with Daddy’s cultivation.

At that moment, Su Mu suddenly noticed, looking down at his hands.

He had made a breakthrough!

He had reached the Immortal Emperor Realm!

Completely stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm!

No wonder he felt a bit unstable; it was because he hadn’t fully adapted to this sudden powerful strength, causing his head to ache slightly.

The treasure brought by Old Three and Xiao Yu, after being refined by Su Mu, directly propelled him from half a step to a full Immortal Emperor Realm.

Don’t underestimate this half step; the difficulty of this half step is greater than all the previous breakthroughs combined!

...

After stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm, Su Mu felt as if he had reached a new, higher, and broader step.

Originally, the gap between a half-step and a full Immortal Emperor was this vast.

"Daddy’s fine." Su Mu rubbed Nannan’s head.

...

After a brief session of meditation to consolidate himself, Su Mu went out on patrol.

Yesterday, Nannan had given him the notebook where she recorded her patrols from last month, so Su Mu had a very clear objective.

Within just one morning, Su Mu handled hundreds of situations, amassing a total of thirty thousand Favor Points!

Continuing until nearly dark, Su Mu had dealt with three hundred situations, counting a total of eighty thousand Favor Points!

In the past, with Nannan’s help, they could usually earn around thirty thousand Favor Points in a month.

This time, they directly reached eighty thousand. This shows how hard Nannan had worked last month.

Although Nannan didn’t know why her father guarded the Long River, she could tell that he hadn’t been very happy last month, perhaps due to this duty?

Thus, Nannan had diligently worked from early morning till late at night this past month.

Truth be told, after stepping into the Immortal Emperor Realm, his stamina was much improved. Having spent the entire day going back and forth along the river and dealing with countless situations, he didn’t feel the slightest fatigue, and even had a sense of wanting more.

When his strength was weak before, he couldn’t handle the larger situations.

Now that he is strong, he no longer encounters major incidents.

Sometimes, Su Mu truly wished there were more people causing trouble on the river...

....

After dinner, under the Phoebe Tree, Su Mu taught Nannan the most basic posture for meditation.

"Daddy, is this position correct?"

Nannan sat down mimicking her father’s posture.
