The huge fluctuation of aura caused by the breakthrough gradually weakened until it disappeared.
Chu Mu opened his eyes, and a strong light flashed through the air like cold lightning, causing the white room to look like it was electrified. It was very shocking.
The light was restrained. He stood up and moved his fists and legs. His fists continuously punched out, causing the air to vibrate and shatter, creating bursts of sonic booms. His legs alternated between sweeping and kicking, and each kick seemed to be able to destroy a mountain. It was extremely powerful.
The increase in cultivation talent from the fourth grade to the third grade was the leap from the middle three grades to the upper three grades. The breakthrough in cultivation from the Third Heavenly Layer of Creation to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Creation was the leap from the Low-Level Sword Of Gojoseon to the Mid-Level Sword Of Gojoseon.
Both were bottlenecks. The breakthrough of the first bottleneck unlocked a powerful potential, and when that potential was transformed, it allowed the breakthrough of the second bottleneck to bring about an all-around improvement.
With his fists and legs, Chu Mu felt that his physique had become even more tyrannical and powerful. Compared to before, it had increased by at least fifty percent.
That fifty percent should not be underestimated, because Chu Mu's original physique was already very powerful.
If Chu Mu's original strength was one hundred thousand pounds, with a fifty percent increase, it would be fifty thousand pounds. It would reach one hundred and fifty thousand pounds, which was very powerful.
A fifty percent increase in physique was not only an increase in strength, but also an increase in speed, explosive force, reaction, balance, and other related aspects. It brought about an all-around improvement.
"Just the strength of my physique alone is enough to fight and even defeat an ordinary five-star Sword Of Gojoseon." Chu Mu loosened his clenched fists and exhaled, as if he was exhaling wind and thunder.
His physique had been strengthened in all aspects, and his cultivation had also broken through from the Third Heavenly Layer of Creation to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Creation. The quality and quantity of the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence had leaped. Previously, it was comparable to an ordinary five-star Sword Of Gojoseon, but now it was comparable to an ordinary six-star Sword Of Gojoseon.
Feeling the Sword of Divine Will in his spiritual world, Chu Mu was sincerely delighted.
The successive breakthroughs in his cultivation talent and cultivation had caused the power of his Divine Thought to increase significantly. It was comparable to that of an ordinary Sword Of Gojoseon at the peak of the Seventh Heavenly Layer of Creation realm.
"With my current strength, if I go all out, I should be able to contend with an ordinary Seven Stars Sword Of Gojoseon." Chu Mu thought to himself and made a summary of his strength after the breakthrough.
However, whether it was true or not, he couldn't be 100% sure. However, his current strength was definitely one star higher than before.
"Boss Chu, you've broken through."
"Chu Mu, congratulations on your breakthrough." Han Guang smiled and said, "The stronger you are, the more likely you are to be in the top three of the battalion's individual battle."
"I'll do my best." Chu Mu wasn't arrogant or impatient. Having personally experienced the division battalion's individual soldier battle, Chu Mu understood the difficulty of it better than anyone else. Moreover, the entire battalion's individual soldier battle was the top three of the division battalion's individual soldier battle. Each and every one of them was an elite among elites. If one wanted to fight against them and obtain the top three, the difficulty could be imagined.
In fact, not only Chu Mu, but the other soldiers who participated in the individual battle of the sub-battalion were also not very confident that they could be in the top three.
There was still one day before the individual battle of the sub-battalion began.
Li Yunfeng and Du Kui came to find him. They did not beat around the bush and directly stated their intentions.
"Join forces?" Chu Mu was taken aback.
"That's right. Everyone in the individual battle of the sub-battalion is not easy to deal with. If we join forces, our chances will be greater." Du Kui's eyes flashed as he said in a deep voice.
"Since you want to join forces, you must have a complete plan." Chu Mu did not agree or refuse.
"It's not clear yet whether we will enter from the same entrance or separately. But no matter what, let's make an agreement. When we meet each other, we will not attack each other. Instead, we will join forces." Li Yunfeng, who was the initiator of the alliance, said with assurance, "Join forces and share the harvest equally."
"Okay." After thinking for a while, Chu Mu agreed.
Presumably, Li Yunfeng was not the only one who had this idea. The others might also have this idea and had already discussed how to join forces.
Since they had the intention to join forces, the three of them continued to discuss how to cooperate better in this room.
… …
The location of the individual battle of the sub-battalion was in a valley.
There were a total of three hundred and twenty elite recruits participating in the individual battle of the sub-battalion.
As expected, everyone entered the valley from different directions.
The valley was very big. There were forests, swamps, and other terrains. It was more complicated than the previous forest.
Just like the forest, after entering the valley, everyone felt a force descending, which began to weaken their strength.
As expected, they did not panic. Instead, they skillfully used the Stealth Technique and blended into the valley.
Every elite recruit who participated in the individual battle of the sub-battalion was the winner of the individual battle of the sub-battalion. Originally, their mastery of various training was more comprehensive than the average recruit. After experiencing the individual battle, their understanding and mastery of various skills had deepened.
In the competition of three hundred and twenty elites, only three people could advance. The others could only serve as foils. It was very cruel.
Like the individual battle of the sub-battalion, the individual battle of the sub-battalion would last for five days.
In five days, even if they did not fight, their strength would be weakened. In the end, only a small amount of Sword Origin and Divine Sense would be left.
If there was a battle, it would be different. Because the consumption of each battle was different.
This experience left a deep impression in Chu Mu's mind. He decided that he would not use his Divine Sense casually. Instead, he would use the Nianzhi Void technique when someone was searching with their Divine Sense. Otherwise, his Divine Sense would not be enough and would be exhausted in advance.
The feeling of exhausting his Divine Sense was still fresh in his memory.
Using Sword Intent and the power of the natural order would also consume a portion of his Divine Sense, so he had to allocate it more rationally.
The Divine Wilderness Sword Origin was supplementary, while his physique was the main force.
Chu Mu already knew that of the 320 people who participated in the individual battle of the sub-battalion, other than him, the others had the lowest cultivation level. They were at the seventh Heaven of Fortune realm.
In terms of cultivation, Chu Mu did not have any advantage. In fact, he was inferior by quite a bit. In terms of Divine Sense, he was only on par with a portion of them. In terms of physique, there were not many who could contend with him.
The way to win was to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses. He had to maximize his advantages.
The place where Chu Mu entered was a forest. His eyes seemed unfocused, but they were extremely sharp. This was also a small technique that he learned during training. A sharp gaze would cause invisible waves that were easily captured and sensed. By making one's gaze unfocused, it would greatly reduce those waves.
However, that kind of unfocused gaze was not truly unfocused, but a form of unfocused gaze. Its essence was still sharp, and it was extremely profound. It was very difficult to grasp it. During the individual battle of the sub-battalion, Chu Mu had not grasped it, but he had now grasped it.
The forest was silent, and there was not even the slightest breeze. The branches and leaves seemed to be frozen, but Chu Mu did not notice anything.
He used the [Listening Sword] in conjunction with the [Seeing Sword]. In terms of both vision and hearing, this was what he was best at. Moreover, there was no obvious exhaustion. He only needed to concentrate. After achieving perfection, it was almost instinctive.
Compared to the various small techniques that he learned during training, the fifth level of swordsmanship was not inferior at all. It was even superior in some aspects.
He used an even more skillful stealth technique and moved stealthily into the forest. This forest was not as wide as the previous one. As he moved stealthily, he removed his traces and paid attention to the movements around him.
Suddenly, Chu Mu stopped and closed his eyes, allowing the Listening Sword to reach its peak without being disturbed. Immediately, all the sounds around him were absorbed into his ears. Chu Mu distinguished the various minute sound waves.
"There's a battle." After ten breaths, Chu Mu made a judgment and carefully moved in the direction of the sound.
When he got closer, he discovered that it was a battle between a swordsman and a python. Only then did Chu Mu understand that there were not only human swordsmen in this valley, but there were also spirit beasts.
This kind of environment was even more cruel than the individual battle of the sub-battalion. This was because, in addition to fighting against other elite recruits, he also had to pay attention to spirit beasts.
Sometimes, spirit beasts were not something that could be avoided. It was unavoidable to fight with spirit beasts. Even if one could successfully kill a spirit beast, it would exhaust one's own strength. However, this kind of environment was more realistic.
Thinking about it, this was only a competition and not a true life and death battle. If it were in the outside world, wandering between life and death, anything could happen. It would only be more cruel than this.
Chu Mu was not in a hurry to make a move. This was because his Listening Sword allowed him to hear other sounds. There were two other human swordsmen approaching and hiding in the surroundings, preparing to be the fisherman.
Chu Mu had discovered their existence, and they had also discovered each other. However, they did not discover Chu Mu's existence.
The swordsman fighting the green python was an 8-star Sword Of Gojoseon. As he fought, he also paid attention to the movements around him. When he sensed that there were people hiding nearby, he felt a little anxious. With a thought, he quickly moved toward one of the spies, intending to bring the python spirit beast over to cause chaos.
His actions were very fast. In this way, he did indeed drag one of the spies into the water. The other one was also dragged into the water. Now, it became three swordsmen fighting against the green python spirit beast.
The green python spirit beast was indeed powerful. However, under the siege of the three swordsmen, it was quickly killed.
Since the three swordsmen had appeared, they naturally did not leave. Instead, they began to fight.
Coincidentally, the three of them were all 8-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Their strength was equally matched. In the chaotic battle, the surrounding trees were all destroyed. Fortunately, Chu Mu was quite far away and was not affected. He was waiting for the battle to end. When the battle ended, they would definitely be weakened significantly. At that time, he would launch an attack. Perhaps, he could obtain three strands of Soldier Qi.
However, Chu Mu soon found that his calculations were wrong. After a few exchanges, the three of them realized that their strength was almost the same. It would be difficult to defeat each other. At the same time, they all chose to retreat. After being vigilant, they slowly sneaked into the bushes and left.
