The assessment ground was extremely vast. More than four thousand Sword Of Gojoseon had entered and scattered, like a pile of sand falling into the sea. It was not easy to meet them.
There were also enough tokens in the assessment ground. These tokens were all placed by the Heavenly Sword Hall before and were scattered randomly in the assessment ground. Therefore, there was no pattern to follow.
One thing was certain, most of the tokens were not so easy to obtain.
For example, Chu Mu had obtained a total of three tokens so far. Two of them were obtained after going through a battle.
Walking on the ground of the assessment ground, not only did one have to pay attention to the surrounding terrain and environment at all times for fear of being affected by a sudden disaster, one also had to pay attention to whether there were any exotic beasts lurking around.
Many of the exotic beasts in the assessment ground were like the mantis exotic beasts from before. They had the unique ability to hide their aura and figure with the help of the environment. If one was not careful, one would be ambushed, and it was impossible to guard against.
Up until now, Chu Mu had already suffered over a dozen sneak attacks. Once, he had almost been killed. Fortunately, he had reacted in time and quickly dodged. Only a wound had been left on his back. The trajectory was that there was still a sinister cold energy around the wound. Fortunately, the vigorous life force of the Wood Phase was constantly covering the wound and dispelling the sinister cold energy, causing the wound to heal in the shortest amount of time.
Chu Mu also successfully killed the exotic beast that ambushed him.
Among the strange beasts in the test grounds, there were some that moved alone and some that lived in groups. All of them were extremely terrifying. Battles were happening everywhere, and life and death were the most common things.
There was no specific destination, just to find more tokens.
Forward, forward, and forward.
The whistling wind swept past, bringing with it a fiery red airflow. It was scorching hot and burned everything. Everywhere it passed, the stones on the ground suddenly became charred black.
Chu Mu's figure flashed, avoiding the red flaming storm and continued forward.
Time flew, and more and more exotic beasts died under his sword. Finally, the Kamihira sword embryo in his middle dantian absorbed a large amount of pure negative energy and successfully advanced to the King Grade. In terms of hardness and toughness, it was not inferior to an ordinary Royal Grade sword. It was very impressive.
If it was before Chu Mu broke through, this sword embryo might be able to be used. But now, this sword embryo had to be at least at the peak of the Royal Grade to barely be used. In order to truly unleash its tyrannical power, it had to be at the Saint Grade.
To reach the Saint Grade, it had to absorb more negative energy. Chu Mu did not know if he could achieve that after three months of battle and killing in the assessment ground, the chances were slim.
It was worth mentioning that there were some rare spiritual herbs growing in the assessment ground. Although there were not many of them, those that could be found were definitely not young and were relatively rare.
It seemed that the environment in the assessment ground was different from the outside world, causing the spiritual herbs to be different too.
Suddenly, in the distance, an incomparably powerful aura shot into the sky like a volcanic eruption. It surged and shook the clouds. That aura was boundless and powerful, filled with a shocking feeling of power, as if it was going to shatter the heavens.
The earth also began to tremble, startling the surroundings, causing the Sword Kings in the testing grounds to be affected one after another.
In the sky above the four corners of the assessment ground, the elders on the four black warships opened their eyes and looked down at the assessment ground. Everything on the assessment ground was clear to them.
"Another rare treasure has appeared. It seems like many people are going to die here." The elders sighed, but they did not have any intention to do anything.
Death was always going to happen. Life and death were originally one of the laws of nature.
Moreover, the assessment ground was also to test the strength and survival ability of the Sword Of Gojoseon. If they were to do something this time, who would do something in the future when they faced the ferocious foreign tribes?
They could only rely on themselves for everything.
Although it was cruel, what the human race needed was a true expert. Only then could they protect the human race in the Archean World and live and reproduce.
"A rare treasure has appeared." Chu Mu stared at the place where the powerful aura was gushing out. With a thought, he immediately moved and flew towards that place.
Like Chu Mu, the other Sword Of Gojoseon who felt the powerful aura also released their auras. Their eyes shone brightly and they all moved towards that place. Even the exotic beasts on the assessment ground were attracted. They were like a group of sharks that had smelled blood. They appeared from all directions and gathered at that place.
Not long after, Chu Mu saw a group of mantis exotic beasts not far away. They were running rapidly on the ground of the assessment ground. It was worth mentioning that due to the special rules of the assessment ground, the Sword Of Gojoseon could not fly. Most exotic beasts could not fly either.
The group of mantis mutated beasts had clearly discovered Chu Mu's figure. If it were any other time, they would definitely have charged over and killed Chu Mu. However, right now, they didn't care about Chu Mu at all, and directly ran forward. Although they couldn't fly, the wings on their backs flapped, causing their speed to continuously increase.
Chu Mu did not attack either. He just continued on his way.
This miraculous scene could be seen everywhere on the assessment ground. What was rare was that the exotic beasts and human swordsmen were moving side by side without interfering with each other.
At this time, the Sword Of Gojoseon was not stupid enough to draw his sword and kill the exotic beasts. That would attract the attention of a huge group of exotic beasts. They would die for sure.
In the center of the assessment ground was a small mountain that was a hundred zhang tall. The mountain was bare, without a single blade of grass. There was not even a trace of life. The entire mountain was golden brown, as if it was made of metal.
At the top of the golden-brown mountain, there was a bare tree. It was golden-brown and only had one tree trunk. It was as straight as a sword, and at the top of the tree, there was a golden-brown fruit.
A powerful and vast aura was gushing out from the fruit, as if it wanted to shatter the heavens.
Power. A pure aura of power condensed on the golden brown fruit, rippling through the air.
Suddenly, the ground began to tremble and rumble. Torrents surged in from all directions. Dust and smoke billowed. Surprisingly, countless exotic beasts had gathered from all directions. Their eyes were scarlet and filled with fanaticism. They were filled with a desire for the golden-brown fruit on the golden-brown hill. They were filled with a desire to possess the golden-brown fruit on the golden-brown hill.
However, these exotic beasts did not rush up the mountain immediately. Instead, they surrounded the bottom of the mountain, pressing against each other. The Sword Of Gojoseon who had rushed over could not squeeze in at all.
From the golden-brown mountain, a golden-brown aura surged out. It spiraled like a dragon and entered the golden-brown fruit. On the golden-brown fruit, another ring appeared and revolved around it.
There were now six patterns on the golden brown fruit.
Even though they were far away, the Sword Of Gojoseon's vision was not affected much. They narrowed their eyes and looked at the golden brown fruit, carefully identifying it.
Suddenly, many Sword Of Gojoseon cried out in surprise, "That's … the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit!"
Chu Mu was also shocked. Information regarding the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit immediately surged into his mind.
The Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit allowed one to undergo nine revolutions and nine refinements.
The Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit was a rare heavenly treasure. It required an extremely unique environment to grow, but no one had researched it. In short, the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit was extremely rare. It was almost the same as the Five Elements Sacred Fruit.
The effect of the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit was completely different from the Five Elements Sacred Fruit. Just from its name, one could tell that the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit was related to refining the body.
That's right, the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit's effect was refining the body. Refining the body was also the only effect of the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit.
As everyone knew, every time a swordsman broke through a major realm, the strength of the body would also increase due to the quality of the sword origin. However, the extent of the increase was not very high.
Only by practicing a body refining technique could one's body continuously strengthen and exceed the usual strength.
The strength of the body was very useful to a swordsman.
The stronger one's body was, the more one's physical strength would be, and the greater one's endurance and recovery ability would be. Hence, one would be able to fight for a longer period of time. Moreover, when a strong physical strength was combined with Sword Yuan, one would be able to unleash an even more frightening strength, causing one's strength to increase. Moreover, if one's body was sufficiently strong, one would also possess a powerful defensive ability. This would allow one to better block and weaken the enemy's attacks, allowing one to better survive.
For other swordsmen, this was the effect of the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit. However, for Chu Mu, the effect of the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit was not only that. Although the strength of his body was stronger than before, and he was also practicing the fourth level of the Heavenly Wasteland Sword Body, without external help, the speed of refining his body was very slow and inefficient. He did not know how many years it would take for him to truly master the fourth level of the Heavenly Wasteland Sword Body, causing the strength of his body to skyrocket.
If he could obtain the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit, after consuming it, the strength of his body would continue to increase. At that time, he should have a strong body that could withstand the power of the earthquake. When using the earthquake, he would not need to spend so much time slowly accumulating the power of the earthquake, and he would not have to worry about causing harm to his body.
Chu Mu's eyes shone with a blazing light. He was extremely eager to obtain the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit.
He was extremely eager, and so were the other Sword Of Gojoseon. Even though they did not have the power of the earthquake that Chu Mu had mastered, the increase in the strength of their bodies would also increase their strength by a few notches, greatly increasing their survivability. It could be as small as passing the assessment, or as big as being in a real battle in the future. It could play a huge role.
Not only did the Sword Of Gojoseon want to obtain it, but the strange beasts in the assessment ground also desired it. After consuming the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit, they would undergo a qualitative transformation. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they would be reborn. They would directly become the king of the experts in their race. The effects were extremely obvious.
Once the Nine Reincarnation Body-Refining Fruit ripened, it was destined to be a life and death struggle.
