Wind and thunder rumbled as the Sword Light spun and tore apart the tree spirit's branches. Menacingly, it approached the tree spirit rapidly.
Chu Mu's strongest ability was in close-range combat. In long-range combat, he could only unleash the combat power of Qi cultivation. In close-range combat, the combat power of Qi cultivation and Body cultivation could be combined to become even stronger.
As if it could sense the threat from Chu Mu, the tree spirit sent more branches, thorns, and swings at Chu Mu. They were so dense that there was nowhere for him to dodge.
Chu Mu moved forward quickly and performed the Inch Step, shuttling through the gaps between the branches.
Eighth Shenzi, Lian Chengyu, and Ninth Shenzi, Feng Guohai, unleashed their true abilities as well, performing their powerful heaven level sword techniques. The sword light was like a raging ocean, like a jade that could break through a city; it was indestructible and indestructible.
Branches were cut and leaves were shattered. The terrifying Sword Light slashed at the tree spirit's trunk.
Chu Mu approached the tree spirit, his two swords swinging as he performed the Lesser Eight Styles of the Void Shattering. The silvery white sword light crisscrossed and formed a cross on the tree trunk.
The Shenzi's ability could dominate those of the same level. With three Shenzi working together, the tree spirit was no match for them, even if it had the ability to surpass an ordinary nine-star pinnacle Sword Of Gojoseon.
Slash!
There was no flying debris. The slain tree spirit faded rapidly, leaving only a faint aura of chaotic color. It was as thick as a toothpick, floating in the air and exuding a strange energy wave.
"Nirvana Qi!" The three of them were overjoyed.
"Eighth brother will keep the Nirvana Qi first. After we leave the Nirvana Secret Realm and return to Levitating Island, we will divide it evenly," Feng Guohai said, glancing at Liancheng Yu and then at Chu Mu.
"Let's do as Ninth brother says," Chu Mu said, having no objections.
Previously, Chu Mu had addressed Lian Chengyu as Brother Lian Chengyu and Feng Guohai as Brother Feng. Along the way, Feng Guohai had brought up this matter, stating that the Children of God addressed each other as brothers. The first Child of God was naturally the eldest, while the second Child of God was the second, and so on. Chu Mu was the tenth Child of God, and he was the youngest at the end.
The more solid a swordsman's foundation was, the more Nirvana Qi was required to break through to the Rebirth Realm.
For example, an ordinary peak Nine-Star Sword Of Gojoseon would only need about a hundred strands of Nirvana Qi to break through to the Nirvana Realm. Then, a genius who was only second to the Son of God would need a thousand strands of Nirvana Qi, and the Son of God would need even more Nirvana Qi to break through.
On the other hand, Qi Refinement and Body Refinement had both reached the peak of the Ninth Star Realm. If one wanted to break through to the Nirvana Realm, the amount of Nirvana Qi required would be even greater. It might be in the thousands or even tens of thousands.
In addition, the Nirvana Qi would be consumed once it was used. Every subsequent breakthrough in the Nirvana Realm would require Nirvana Qi. More Nirvana Qi would increase the power by several times or even tenfold.
"This Nirvana Beast is unexpectedly powerful. It's quite difficult to kill it one-on-one," Lian Chengyu said after putting away the strand of Nirvana Qi.
"Every Nirvana Beast is at least a peak Nine-Star King Level. With the boost from the Nirvana Qi, their abilities are far superior to an ordinary Nine-Star King Level." Feng Guohai said, "Nirvana Beasts are divided into four levels — low, middle, high, and Grand Nirvana Beast. The one we killed should be a high level Nirvana Beast."
Just think about it, when the three of them joined forces, they still had to go through a battle before they were able to kill a high level Nirvana Beast. If it was a peak Ninth Star Sword King with an ordinary strength, not to mention killing it, it would be entirely possible for him to be killed by a high level Nirvana Beast.
However, this Nirvana Secret Realm belonged to the Heavenly Sword Hall. Those who could enter were all swordsmen of the Heavenly Sword Hall. There was no such thing as ordinary swordsmen of the Heavenly Sword Hall.
Those who could enter the Nirvana Secret Realm for free were all highly valued by the Heavenly Sword Hall. Their abilities were not to be underestimated. Those who were willing to pay a large amount of battle merits to enter the Nirvana Secret Realm were experienced and had extraordinary abilities. With several people joining forces, it was not difficult to fight a Nirvana Beast, as long as they did not encounter a large group of Nirvana Beasts.
They continued to move forward. Not long after, Chu Mu and the other two encountered another Nirvana Beast. This time, it was two Nirvana Beasts that looked like apes. They had black fur and were more than five meters tall. They were muscular and bulging like two small hills, full of pressure.
When the two Black Ape Demons saw Chu Mu and the other two, they immediately roared into the sky. Their thick arms beat their chests, making drumming sounds. Then, they sprinted towards them.
They raised their huge fists, which seemed to cover the sky. A patch of darkness came crashing down abruptly.
The terrifying fist force seemed to shatter the vacuum, causing Chu Mu and the other two's expressions to change.
With a loud explosion, the two fists seemed to shatter the void. The fist force forcefully broke open two holes in the hard ground.
Their bodies were like the wind, swallows, and sharp arrows. The three of them quickly spread out, avoiding the fist force from different directions and counterattacking.
In fact, the Nirvana Beasts' abilities were also divided into different levels. It was related to their bodies.
Some of the Nirvana Beasts' abilities were equivalent to the most ordinary nine-star pinnacle Sword Of Gojoseon. However, because of the Nirvana Qi, their abilities were increased by several times. Some of the Nirvana Beasts' original abilities were the elite nine-star pinnacle Sword Of Gojoseon. With the Nirvana Qi, their abilities were increased by several times.
However, even the weakest Nirvana Beast was several times stronger than the ordinary nine-star pinnacle Sword Of Gojoseon. The more powerful ones were even dozens of times stronger.
The highest level Nirvana Beast even had the powerful abilities of a powerful Deity.
There were differences in the abilities of Deities as well. Chu Mu would find it difficult to defeat a powerful Deity in a one-on-one fight.
The two Black Ape Spirits came with great ferocity, their fists shocking. However, they were mid-level Nirvana Beasts, and their abilities were not as strong as the tree spirit from before.
Chu Mu fought one Black Ape Spirit alone, while Lian Chengyu and Feng Guohai worked together to fight the other Black Ape Spirit.
The Sword of Wind and Thunder and the Sword of Five Phases were infused with the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence. Gold and silver intertwined. As the Sword Light spun, Chu Mu's figure was extremely agile. He weaved between the Black Ape Spirit's fists, leaving wounds on the Black Ape Spirit's body with each strike.
The Black Ape Spirit's fur was tough and its defense was shocking. If it were not for one's strength, the sharpness of a mid-level sacred sword alone would not be enough to cut through the Black Ape Spirit's fur.
As soon as a wound appeared on the Black Ape Spirit's body, the wound could not heal. Instead, it was corroded and deepened by a force at a slow pace. It continued to expand as its life force was drained away.
Both swords slashed at the same wound, deepening the wound. With another strike, the Black Ape Spirit's head was severed. It flew high into the air and faded quickly.
On the other side, Feng Guohai and Lian Chengyu's expressions changed. They had already killed the Black Ape Spirit before Chu Mu.
The Nirvana Qi of a mid-level Nirvana Beast was much thinner than that of a high-level Nirvana Beast.
The Nirvana Qi of a high-level Nirvana Beast was about ten times that of a mid-level Nirvana Beast. In that case, the Nirvana Qi of a low-level Nirvana Beast should be ten times less than that of a mid-level Nirvana Beast.
An ordinary nine-star pinnacle Sword Of Gojoseon would need a hundred strands of low-level Nirvana Qi to break through to the Nirvana Realm. In terms of mid-level Nirvana Qi, it would be ten strands, and in terms of high-level Nirvana Qi, it would be one strand.
In that case, the Sword Of Gojoseon, who was a God's Child, would need ten strands of Nirvana Beast's Nirvana Qi to break through to the Nirvana Realm.
A God's Child like Chu Mu, who cultivated both qi and body, would need even more.
With Lian Chengyu putting away the two strands of mid-level Nirvana Qi, the three of them did not expend much energy and did not need to rest. However, Chu Mu noticed that the Five Manifestation Swords and the Sword of Wind and Thunder were rusty and damaged. It was as if they had been eroded by the passage of time and turned from divine weapons to ordinary metal.
"Youngest, why is your sword like this?" Feng Guohai pointed at Chu Mu's sword and asked in surprise.
"Tenth brother's sword …" Lian Chengyu also looked at Chu Mu in surprise.
If he wasn't mistaken, those two swords should be top quality middle grade saint swords. In terms of quality, they shouldn't be inferior to high grade saint swords. Yet, such saint swords had actually been reduced to such a state after two battles.
"The sword energy I cultivate is a little special," Chu Mu said, feeling a little helpless.
He had spent quite a lot of time cultivating the Five Manifestation Swords and the Sword of Wind and Thunder. They had followed him through many battles of life and death, killing many powerful enemies and staining the swords with blood. He had never thought that they would become like this today because of the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy.
It could be seen from the side that the true Divine Wilderness Sword Energy was powerful and possessed a terrifying corrosive ability.
"What a powerful sword energy," Lian Chengyu sighed.
"I'll give you two." Feng Guohai smiled and tossed out two swords. Chu Mu put away the Five Manifestation Swords and the Sword of Wind and Thunder. The two swords had been damaged and could not be repaired due to the corrosion of the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy. Chu Mu's current cultivation base was at the peak of the ninth layer of Destiny, so he could use high-level sacred swords as well.
Actually, Chu Mu had another sword that he could use that did not need to worry about being corroded by the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy. It was the sword that he had condensed from the Divine Wilderness Sword Seed, which he named the Imperishable Sword.
However, the current Imperishable Sword was only a low-level sacred sword, comparable to a mid-level sacred sword at best. It was not powerful enough.
Of course, he had other sacred swords in his spatial ring as well.
The two high-level sacred swords that Feng Guohai had given him were no ordinary items either. They were the best of the high-level sacred swords, unusually sharp and made of extraordinary materials.
"They should be able to last for a while longer," Chu Mu thought to himself.
The Divine Wilderness Sword Energy was just too domineering, but Chu Mu was very happy. The more domineering the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy was, the more powerful it would be, and the more obvious it would increase his strength.
Just think about it. After the opponent was attacked by the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy, they would immediately be corroded by the Divine Wilderness Sword Energy and their condition would be affected. They would have to divert their attention to defend themselves, which would lead to a decrease in their strength.
It was a pity that while killing nirvana beasts could obtain nirvana Qi, they could not collect resentment and other negative energies, so the Imperishable Sword could not continue to grow.
With the two high-level sacred swords in hand, Chu Mu, Lian Chengyu, and Feng Guohai continued their journey of hunting in the Nirvana Realm. The three of them wanted to break through to the Nirvana Realm, so they needed a lot of nirvana Qi.
