Guarding the River of Time-Chapter 330 - 321: This Is Freaking 5 Years Old?! The Awakening Stone Statue
Upon hearing this, Nannan held the Wooden Sword, her eyes becoming sharp, and her demeanor instantly seemed like a different person.
Seeing the little master’s sword-wielding stance and the Sword Intent emanating from her, the Little Owl was momentarily stunned.
In that instant of its surprise.
A flash of cold light, in an instant, the sword light was already approaching.
Though unprepared, the Owl, with its deep understanding of the Sword Dao and relying on its body’s instincts, dodged the attack.
At this moment, the four little ones observing the battle also widened their eyes.
Though they did not understand Sword Dao, haven’t they seen pigs run if they haven’t eaten pork?
From this sword of the little master, it was evident that the opponent’s Sword Dao mastery was exquisite, reaching an advanced level.
But, didn’t the little master only just begin learning Sword Dao a few days ago?
The Little Owl was also shocked, completely startled; this feeling was hard to describe...
If forced to describe it, it’s like Hawking, paralyzed for decades, suddenly ripping his clothes off and delivering a set of five lightning whip strikes, plus a left hook, a right hook, and finally a bee elbow strike.
It was dumbfounded.
Five years old?
This is five years old?!
Not only them, but at this moment, those in the big iron cage watching the commotion were all dumbstruck, especially the Sword Cultivators among them.
If one doesn’t cultivate the sword, it’s hard to know the value of this strike.
After quickly calming its emotions, the Owl began sparring, becoming more serious.
Because this spar was between Sword Dao, without using Spiritual Power, it was purely the collision of Sword Dao mastery.
As they continued, the Owl increasingly felt something was off; the little master’s Sword Dao gave it a very sharp and mature feeling.
To achieve such a feeling, time’s sedimentation and accumulation are necessary.
Even if the little master started practicing swordsmanship from birth, it would only have been five years!
True sword practice generally takes tens or even hundreds of years.
The Owl even suspected... the little master might be possessed by a Sword God; it was a bit too fierce.
However, there was still a gap between the little master’s Sword Dao and its own.
The most crucial point was, during the spar with the Owl, it could clearly feel that the other side was improving and progressing at a visibly rapid pace.
.....
In the evening, Su Mu returned home to find Nannan cooking.
Feeling idle, he went to the backyard.
He discovered a wet and furry thing lying on the ground, and when he got closer and picked it up, he realized it was the Little Owl.
At this moment, the Little Owl’s eyelids were twitching, showing a look of exhaustion.
The moisture on its body was actually sweat!
It hadn’t expected the little master to be so full of energy; its sword was almost dull, while the little master wasn’t tired at all.
"I asked you to practice sword with Nannan, why are you lying here sleeping?"
Su Mu picked up the Little Owl.
To this, the Little Owl was really tearless despite having tears to shed.
After hearing what happened, Su Mu was also stunned.
Nannan, this little one, progressing so quickly??
He then used dozens of Favor Points to help the Little Owl recover.
Actually, it wasn’t that the Owl couldn’t defeat Nannan; it was because she was doing so well that it held back in the fight. Didn’t want to fight hard, fearing it might hurt the little master, which made things very difficult.
Additionally, its strength was greatly suppressed in the River of Time, making sparring with Nannan difficult to handle.
For the next week, Nannan continued sparring with the Owl intensively.
In just a short week’s time, Nannan’s progress could hardly be described by the phrase "thousands of miles in a day."
She was advancing in rank every single day.
After just sparring for a week, the Owl clearly felt that it must use fifty percent of its strength to barely contend with Nannan.
This kind of talent, in all its long life, despite seeing countless Sword Dao geniuses in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, none could compare to Nannan, not even a strand of her hair.
In counting meticulously, it had cultivated Sword Dao for ten whole eons, and concerning Sword Dao, it had not met an equal opponent.
Nannan, having barely dabbled in Sword Dao for less than a month, was already catching up to half its Sword Dao realm!
This can’t be described as monstrous anymore; this is simply the reincarnation of a Sword God!
....
After the owner left, the four little ones came over teasingly.
The Little Monkey was laughing so hard it nearly tumbled, clutching its belly in laughter: "Xiao Wu, you proclaim yourself the pearl of the highest Sword Dao, but I think this pearl might have some water content in it?"
The Little Brown Bear also teased: "Fifth brother, the little master is only five years old, yet she’s got you sweating all over?"
Facing the teasing from his brothers, the Little Owl’s face turned red with frustration and retorted: "You guys don’t cultivate Sword Dao, you just don’t understand!"
"Enough, telling you is pointless because you wouldn’t understand anyway!" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
.....
At this, the Groundhog, as the elder brother, stepped in front of the Little Owl, saying earnestly: "Xiao Wu, big brother understands you. You’re teaching the little master, but you must not hold back or slack off. You need to teach with all your heart and effort."
The Little Owl, with a helpless face, replied: "Big brother, I really am teaching earnestly, I’m genuinely drained, it’s not that I’m pretending."
Because in this River of Time, it’s already suppressed, and under such high-intensity battle, who can endure it? It’s not like it’s the little master, unaffected by the River of Time.
"Big brother understands, just try to be mindful." With that, the Groundhog patted the Owl on the shoulder.
They all thought it was pretending, but it wasn’t deliberately faking exhaustion; it was truly tired, genuinely drained!
.....
Unknowingly, another two weeks passed by.
Nannan had been learning the sword for a whole month.
With Sword Dao alone, she could already pressure the Little Owl to use seventy percent of its strength.
There are twelve realms of Sword Dao in total, with the Little Owl in the tenth realm, while Nannan had reached the seventh realm in a month, speeding through seven realms!
What is talent?
This is freaking real talent!
...
That night, after Su Mu had taught Nannan for an hour, he began meditating to cultivate himself.
Reaching the Immortal Emperor Realm, he ascended to a new level, finding cultivation smooth and without considerable barriers.
Suddenly.
Su Mu abruptly opened his eyes, standing up, looking towards the Iron-Eating Beast statue at the small courtyard gate.
He wasn’t sure if it was just an illusion, but for a moment, he seemed to feel the Iron-Eating Beast blink.
He slowly stood up, walking step by step towards the Iron-Eating Beast.
Unleashing his Divine Sense, he locked onto the Iron-Eating Beast, thoroughly checking inside and out, but as usual, found no signs of life.
How strange?
Could it be an illusion?
Got it!
Su Mu’s eyes lit up, thinking of a solution.
.....
