Everyone's footsteps paused in front of a pitch-black cave.
The entrance of the dark cave emitted a shocking chill, as if it was the open mouth of a giant beast waiting to devour everything. It was quite frightening.
"Go in!" He pushed the Sword Kings who had been grabbed by the shoulders and walked into the pitch-black cave entrance.
Everyone was on high alert and released their Divine Senses to scan the cave, because they didn't know if there was any danger in the cave.
Seeing that the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect treated them as cannon fodder and let them go in first, they knew that it was definitely not a good place.
Then, the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect followed them into the cave.
The darkness seemed to recede, and gradually, light appeared. They entered the cave and came to the deepest part of the cave, the belly of the cave.
The huge belly of the cave was tens of thousands of square meters and was very wide. The light came from a piece of ice crystal in the distance. No, it was not an ice crystal. When they looked carefully, they found that it was a pool of water that seemed to have solidified. It was the pool of water that emitted light and illuminated the whole cave.
The pool was thousands of square meters in size. They also saw that in the center of the pool, there was a piece of land with a radius of more than ten square meters. There was a tree about three meters tall on it, with sparse leaves and few branches. On the tree, there were three fruits of different colors.
One was red, one was green, and one was purple. The three fruits each emitted a different aura fluctuation. The red was scorching hot, the green was light, and the purple was violent.
Everyone could feel that the red fruit contained the Power of Heaven and Earth of the Fire Element, the green fruit contained the Power of Heaven and Earth of the Wind Element, and the purple fruit contained the Power of Heaven and Earth of the Thunder Element.
Everyone's breathing suddenly became rapid, including the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect.
As everyone knew, there were very few things that contained the Power of Heaven and Earth, and every one of them was a rare treasure.
The three fruits made the hearts of the Sword Of Gojoseon beat faster, although they didn't know the specific effects of the three fruits.
"Your task is to pick the three fruits," the head disciple of the Black Sun Sword Sect sneered.
"It's just three fruits. Do you still need us?" One of the captured Sword Of Gojoseon said, "Aren't you afraid that we will directly consume the fruit after plucking it?"
"It's a rare treasure of the world. After consuming it, it will take some time to refine it. Even if you pick the fruit and eat it, you'll only end up with your stomach cut open," said the disciple of the Black Sun Sword Sect with a cold smile.
No one wanted to be disemboweled.
"What's in the pool?" Suddenly, a Sword Of Gojoseon asked.
None of the people present were fools. Naturally, they knew that the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect had captured them to pick the three fruits. There must be some danger that was difficult to deal with. That was why they were sent to pick the fruits and serve as cannon fodder.
His goal should be to lure out the thing that was hiding under the pool.
Just like the Dracophant Fruit, there were three powerful Dracophants guarding it. In that case, the value of these three fruits that contained the energy of Heaven and Earth was even higher than the thirteen Dracophant Fruits. Hence, there were bound to be guards as well. Furthermore, the guards were stronger than the Dracophants.
An unknown training beast that could make fifty Black Sun Sword Sect disciples treat with caution must be extremely dangerous. Understanding this, everyone's heart could not help but sink.
"You'll have to verify what it is in person." The disciple of the Black Sun Sword Sect sneered. "You have two choices. The first is to be killed by us directly. The second is to pick the three fruits and give them to us. You can live. The choice is up to you."
If they didn't go, they would be killed immediately. They were no match for the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect at all. If they went, there was a great possibility that they would be killed by the claws of the unknown training beast.
Of course, it was also possible that they would be killed by the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect after going through hardships and narrowly escaping death to pick the three fruits.
This was a gamble. The choice was up to them.
Chu Mu's idea was very simple. He didn't believe that the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect would really let them go after getting the three fruits. However, Chu Mu planned to pick the three fruits first.
Because he himself was also tempted by the three fruits. If he succeeded in picking them, he would choose to stay and look for an opportunity to break out all his strength, even if he would be injured, to escape from here.
This was his idea. As for the reality, he didn't know. Everything could only be done according to the timing. He could obtain the greatest benefits while keeping his own life. Otherwise, if he lost his life, no matter how good the things he got, it would be a wedding dress for others after all.
In just a few minutes, the 20 captured Sword Of Gojoseon had all made their choices. The first choice was to fight for it as long as there was a glimmer of hope for survival.
"Go!" The disciple of the Black Sun Sword Sect shouted in a low voice.
The 20 Sword Of Gojoseon slowly walked forward to the shining pool.
Standing on the edge of the pool and looking at the shining pool, they all looked dignified.
The light of the pool seemed to be emitted from the inside, which was very strange. The pool was very calm, without the slightest ripple. It looked sticky, like a mercury pool, and it exuded a kind of darkness, as if a terrible danger was lurking.
For example, an ordinary person who couldn't swim was sitting on a broken board, floating in the endless sea. He seemed so small. He was afraid that a wave would flip the board over, and he would fall into the sea and drown because he couldn't swim. He was also afraid that a ferocious shark would suddenly jump out of the sea and eat him as food.
It was a kind of unknown. It was the unknown when a small human being faced with the infinite power of nature. The unknown would arouse fear.
Taking a deep breath, the 20 people present were not ordinary people. They were Sword Of Gojoseon, the kind of powerful existence who could decide the life and death of countless ordinary people with a smile. In the face of the unknown, at least they had their own strength to rely on.
The distance between the edge of the pool and the tree in the middle of the pool was about 300 meters. Although they couldn't fly, 300 meters was nothing for the Sword Of Gojoseon. As long as he used his body movement, he could cross it quickly.
"You go first." A cold shout sounded. Chu Mu suddenly felt the subtle fluctuation of palm wind behind him. Someone was vigorously pushing out a palm, intending to push Chu Mu, the Sword Of Gojoseon with the lowest cultivation, out as cannon fodder.
In this regard, the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect just laughed and didn't stop it. For them, as long as they could get the three fruits, it would be enough.
They didn't expect the 20 captured Sword Of Gojoseon to be able to get the three fruits. The purpose of capturing them was only to draw out the beast lurking in the pool. Only by drawing it out could they better kill it with less losses.
In the blink of an eye, a pair of fleshy palms pushed Chu Mu's back as if they were trying to push a ten-thousand-pound boulder. The others sneered one after another. Seeing that Chu Mu's body was about to be pushed out and fall into the pool, the Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon who pushed out his palms only saw a flash in front of his eyes. The target under his palms had disappeared, causing his powerful push to miss.
If it were an ordinary person, the person would have rushed forward after losing the target with a strong push. However, the Sword Of Gojoseon had reached a certain level of control over his body and immediately stopped his forward momentum. However, a strong push came from behind. Unable to resist, his whole body rushed forward and fell into the pool with a look of horror.
It wasn't that he didn't want to stop, but the force behind the push was too strong and exceeded the limit of what he could bear.
The person who pushed him was Chu Mu.
Under normal circumstances, Chu Mu would not take the initiative to attack others. However, when someone wanted to attack him, Chu Mu would not stupidly accept it. He would counterattack and even give the other party a taste of their own medicine.
With a plop, the Seven Star Sword King plunged headfirst into the pool, causing tiny splashes of water to splash out. In his panic, he repeatedly slapped the water and quickly swam back. He climbed back up, and there was no danger.
Only then did the Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon breathe a sigh of relief. Immediately, he glared at Chu Mu and roared, "You dared to trick me, go die!"
The sword was unsheathed and a cold Sword Light cut across the sky. The sword slashed towards Chu Mu, intending to kill Chu Mu.
The others watched coldly from the sidelines. They naturally hoped that someone would be the first to test the waters and see what kind of terrifying beast was lurking in the pool.
The expression in his eyes changed and a trace of coldness quietly bloomed. The Five Phase Sword was unsheathed and Chu Mu mercilessly swung his sword.
It was faster, more accurate, and more ruthless!
A huge force surged into the sword. The force penetrated the tip of the sword and instantly broke the opponent's protective Sword Vigor. The sword stabbed into the opponent's chest.
The force was powerful, but Chu Mu had already held back. He only used the power equivalent to the peak of the seven-star late stage to avoid alerting the disciples of the Black Sun Sword Sect.
This sword seemed to be very powerful, but in fact, it was skillful. The tip of the sword did not hurt the Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon. It was not that Chu Mu deliberately showed mercy, but that he had another purpose.
The huge force instantly surged into the Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon's chest through the tip of the sword. He only felt that his heart seemed to stop beating, his Qi and blood froze, and he was powerless. Unable to resist, he flew backward like an arrow.
In an instant, he flew dozens of meters away and fell again. At the same time, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
With a splash, water splashed out, and the surrounding pool water was dyed red with blood. The Seven Star Sword King waved his four limbs and struggled, splashing out even more water.
The powerful force of Chu Mu's sword remained in his body, which could not be dispelled for a while. He could not move freely and was extremely frightened.
"Help me … Help me …" The Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon roared in horror as he struggled to swim to the edge of the pool.
No one paid attention to him. They all stared at the pool water to see what was lurking in the pool and whether it would appear.
Or was there no terrible beast lurking in the pool at all?
"I'm fine … Haha … I'm fine …" The Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon, who had regained his ability to move, swam dozens of meters away. When he was about to swim to the edge, nothing happened. The Seven Star Sword Of Gojoseon could not help laughing. Just as he was about to climb to the edge of the pool, something strange happened …
