Guarding the River of Time-Chapter 360 - 350: Everyone’s Transformation, Divine Alliance’s Advancement, Mastering the Long River

Chapter 360: Chapter 350: Everyone’s Transformation, Divine Alliance’s Advancement, Mastering the Long River

For over a year, Su Mu has been diligently working, patrolling every day.

Due to the aftermath of the floods, many water areas have become a mess. For example, stone dams have been broken, large amounts of debris have washed up on the riverbank, and decaying fish carcasses pile up in the waterways, emanating a foul stench. Some polluted tributaries have turned pitch black.

So, during this year, every time Su Mu went out, it was as if he was picking up money, and his affinity with the rivers had already reached 60%.

After reaching sixty percent, the biggest feeling was that any abnormal situation on the river surface could no longer affect him, and he had already gained a certain degree of control.

As soon as he unleashed his Divine Sense, he could cover half of the Long River. With a thought, he could cause a thick mist to rise on the river surface, which means... he is already able to roughly control the large-scale environmental changes of the Long River.

Moreover, his speed moving on the river had transcended the realm of "walking" or "running."

He could now teleport; that is, taking a step forward, he could collapse space and appear a thousand meters or even several kilometers away in the water area, and very accurately at that.

This is why, when he noticed someone preparing to fight or cause trouble on the river, he could rush to the scene at the first moment. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

.....

Upon returning home, he found a graceful figure practicing swordsmanship.

In front of this graceful figure were pieces of blue stone taller than her. These stones were retrieved from the riverbed, very sturdy, suitable for practicing sword techniques.

The figure moved with the sword, leaving shimmering trails of white light and deep sword marks on the blue stones, the sword’s power vast.

Upon seeing Su Mu return, she sheathed her long sword, slung it across her back, and ran over to Su Mu.

"Daddy, you’re back."

Nannan was now almost eight years old, and her height had shot up, almost reaching Su Mu’s chest.

She wore simple, clean white clothes, her brows and eyes were clear, her skin was fair, her neck as white as a swan’s. When she smiled, two little tiger teeth were vaguely visible, making her less cute but adding an air of immortality, her appearance gradually unfolding into a beautiful young woman.

"Not bad, you’ve improved quite a bit," Su Mu praised.

Hearing her daddy’s praise, Nannan smiled bashfully, "It’s because of Daddy’s good teaching, Nannan has made progress."

Now, Nannan’s cultivation had reached the Eighth Realm of Earth Immortal, and her Sword Dao training had also reached the point of perfection, subtle and profound, marvelous beyond words.

In terms of Sword Dao, she could now stand on equal footing with the Little Owl who specialized in Sword Dao, recently even subtly surpassing the Little Owl in their bouts.

This means, regarding the Sword Dao, the Little Owl was no longer capable of instructing her, and now it was all under Su Mu’s personal guidance when he had time.

.....

An eight-year-old Earth Immortal, even Su Mu, who personally raised his daughter, felt a bit surreal.

This talent was too excellent, not like encountering cultivation for the first time, but more like she hadn’t completely forgotten things from a past life.

...

After finishing dinner, the night had fully darkened.

Recently, the nights have grown longer, and the cold has become more intense, a cold unlike any ordinary chill, one that even the operation of a cultivation technique could not dispel.

Thus, even with Nannan’s current status as an Earth Immortal, she still shivered in her sleep under this cold.

As for the old Cyan Ox, perhaps due to its thick skin, it could withstand the cold, but at night it still curled up into a ball, clearly struggling.

The ones that suffered the most at night were probably the five little ones and their subordinates, who basically huddled back to back.

However, the Little Fox seemed untroubled, sleeping quietly not far from Su Mu at nights.

.....

Su Mu once had a Magical Treasure, a fireplace that used to ward off the night’s cold, but now it seems to have lost its effect.

He had thought of many ways, tried many Magical Treasures, but none seemed to have much effect.

However, to improve the situation as much as possible, Su Mu took out all of his fire attribute Magical Treasures, placing them in every corner of the house. The situation improved slightly, and they could at least get a minimal rest.

....

Outside Nanmu Immortal Island of the Longevity Immortal Realm.

A middle-aged man in a scarlet robe cupped his hands toward the Immortal Island in the sea and said, "Master, I have something to report."

As his voice fell, the array opened, revealing steps conjured by the array.

The scarlet-robed man walked up the steps slowly towards the Immortal Island.

After entering the Immortal Island, the middle-aged man arrived at a courtyard and lightly knocked on the wooden door.

"Xiao Huo, come in,"

Only then did the middle-aged man push the door open, finding a dignified man sitting upright in the courtyard.

This dignified man wore a dark robe, engrossed in writing something. When he saw the middle-aged man arrive, he put down his brush and smiled, "Come, take a seat."

The middle-aged man was none other than the master of the Endless Fire Domain, Xiao Huo!

However, currently, he held another, more esteemed status—the first-generation closed-door disciple under the Grand Alliance Leader.

Xiao Huo sat upright and tense.

"Xiao Huo, what brings you to seek me, your master?" asked Grand Alliance Leader Wu Zhong with a smile.

Xiao Huo was his third disciple and also his favorite one.

.....

It has been over forty thousand years since the old Wu Zhong decided to establish the Dao Lineage.

Now, the headquarters of the Heaven Shepherd Alliance has moved from the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm to the more powerful and affluent Longevity Immortal Realm.

Longevity Immortal Realm was seized twenty thousand years ago.

That battle saw the Heaven Shepherd Alliance giving its all, lasting three thousand years, before finally taking over the powerful Longevity Immortal Realm.

In the calamities of All Heavens, the Longevity Immortal Realm is a renowned existence, its comprehensive strength nearly rivaling that of some weaker Lower Divine Domains.

After securing the Longevity Immortal Realm, and with two thousand years of development and integration, the overall strength of the Heaven Shepherd Alliance is now closely approaching a Lower Divine Domain.

Next, the Heaven Shepherd Alliance’s goals no longer confine themselves to the Immortal Realms, but the Divine Domains!

.....

Today, the Heaven Shepherd Alliance oversees five Upper-Rank Immortal Realms, fifty Middle-Rank Immortal Realms, one hundred Lower-Rank Immortal Realms, and three thousand Great Worlds.

Its comprehensive strength has improved a notch compared to forty thousand years ago.

This is because the "disaster" forty thousand years ago made the leaders aware of their weakness, dedicating these forty thousand years to frantic development.

Now, the Heaven Shepherd Alliance has made a name for itself across the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, with many Immortal Realms and numerous Divine Domains having heard of "Shepherd of Heaven"’s formidable reputation.

But this is not enough; to truly aid the master, this is far from sufficient!

.....

"What are you standing around for?"

"Whatever you have to say, say it."

Wu Zhong addressed Xiao Huo, who was fidgeting in front of him.
