"What's going on? It's only been one night and he's already ranked fifth?"
The geniuses were all dumbfounded when they saw the rankings on the Galaxy Genius List. They rubbed their eyes and looked again. It was real and not an illusion.
After one night, the sixth and seventh place geniuses also had 4,000 points. However, they were slower than Chu Mu, so they were ranked behind him.
It had to be said that the geniuses' abilities were gradually showing. As time passed, they showed more and more of their abilities and improved by leaps and bounds.
That night was a night of rapid improvement. His Qi Cultivation had both reached the 1st Sky and he had also comprehended the Gold Force. His strength had increased by many times.
"If I encounter another elite Red-eyed Wolf now, it will be easier to kill it," Chu Mu thought to himself.
The first rays of dawn appeared on the horizon and the night gradually faded. Chu Mu got out of bed and practiced a beginner level sword technique. He washed up and put on the shabby coarse linen clothes. He had no choice as he didn't have any other clothes. Although the coarse linen clothes smelled a little strange, he still had to wear them.
He took out the Illustration Book of Low Level Void Beasts and flipped it open. There were words and colorful pictures on each page, and each page recorded a void beast.
The first page showed the Red-eyed Wolf with a simple introduction. The colorful pictures were vivid and lifelike.
The second page also showed the Red-eyed Wolf, but it was an elite Red-eyed Wolf called the Red-eyed Battle Wolf.
The third page also showed the Red-eyed Wolf, but it was more majestic and ferocious than the Red-eyed Battle Wolf. It was called the Red-eyed Wolf King.
The low level void beasts recorded in this book were the low level void beasts in the wilderness around the Night Dark Tribe. They weren't the low level void beasts of the entire Azure Sky Void World.
Therefore, there were only ten types of grade-1 void beasts, eight types of grade-2 void beasts, and five types of grade-3 void beasts.
Each type of void beast was divided into three levels: ordinary, elite, and king.
The king level was the lowest and its location was also indicated. For example, the Red-eyed Wolf King was in the Wolf Valley.
"I wonder how powerful the Red-eyed Wolf King is?" Chu Mu's eyes flashed as his blood sped up and his battle intent surged.
The Scarlet-Eyed Battle Wolves were very strong. As the king of the Scarlet-Eyed Wolves, the Scarlet-Eyed Wolf King should be much stronger.
On the last page of the illustrated handbook, there was a simple map. It marked out the locations of low-level Faux Beasts outside the Night Dark Tribe, such as the Wolf Valley, Tiger Stream, Eagle Cliff, and other places.
After practicing the Elementary Sword Technique and reading the Illustration Handbook of Elementary Void Beasts, the sun had risen.
After eating some rations and drinking some water, Chu Mu tidied himself up a little and left.
At this time, many people had already left Dark Night Tribe and entered the wilderness.
"Brother Chu, Yang Xuan has brought a group of people to the wooden bridge to stop you," Lin Yi stepped forward and said to Chu Mu.
"Senior Brother Chu, let's fight our way out together." Jiang Fan's tone was filled with killing intent. Lin Haichao didn't say anything. He just stood aside and looked at Chu Mu.
In the end, the disciples of the Sword Sect were still united.
"No, Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers, this is a grudge between me and Qiu Minglei's group. I will resolve it. Don't forget that our main purpose in coming here is not to fight with the disciples of the Dark Night Sword Sect. Chu Mu said straightforwardly, "If you suffer losses because of me, I will feel very guilty."
"Don't say anything more. This is my decision." Chu Mu immediately added, not allowing Lin Yi and the others to speak.
After saying that, Chu Mu turned around and strode out of Dark Night Tribe. He saw a group of people standing on the wooden bridge. Yang Xuan was leisurely sitting on the edge of the bridge, looking at the clear water and the fish swimming in it.
"Let's go." Lin Yi and the others quickly followed.
As soon as Chu Mu walked out of the Dark Night Tribe, Qiu Minglei said coldly, "I thought you were hiding in the Dark Night Tribe and didn't dare to come out." His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Including him, there were a total of eight people from the Dark Night Tribe. Each of them had at least reached the First Sky and had mastered Sword Intent. They were all top sixty on the Galaxy Genius Roll.
All of them were either grinning or staring at Chu Mu with murderous intent.
Chu Mu didn't answer and didn't stop. He just walked over.
Yang Xuan didn't raise his head, as if the fish in the water were more attractive.
Even though he didn't raise his head, his voice was still heard, "Fifty First-Grade Void Qi in ten days. Do you agree?"
"Give it to me," Chu Mu said lightly.
"Senior Brother Yang, this man is stubborn. He should be killed." Qiu Minglei's voice was filled with killing intent.
"Then let's kill him," Yang Xuan said casually, as if he were going to decide Chu Mu's fate.
Qiu Minglei unsheathed his sword and the other six people also did the same. They either jumped in the air like an eagle pouncing on a rabbit, lowered their bodies like a snake, or circled around from the side.
"Junior Brother Chu, be careful!" Lin Yi shouted. When he was about to unsheathe his sword, Chu Mu moved.
As the dust flew, his body shot out like an arrow leaving the bow. The black iron sword trembled, and the sword light was sharp. With the support of the sword intent, his speed increased rapidly. The sword was like a meteor from outer space.
With a puff, the sword pierced through the throat of one of the people. Blood spurted out, but Chu Mu had already flashed past and slashed at the second person.
The six swords came from different directions and from different angles. Each sword was very fierce and full of killing intent. Chu Mu changed from slashing to slashing, drawing an arc in front of him. The vibration power burst out and the internal Qi exploded. His strength increased greatly and he immediately broke the six swords. Then, he flicked his sword again.
With a puff, the sharp sword cut through the neck of the second person and beheaded him.
Even though he had reached the First Heaven and his body was stronger, he still couldn't compare with a Void Beast, let alone block the sword.
In just three short breaths, two people had died under Chu Mu's sword. Lin Yi paused, his face full of shock.
Yang Xuan also looked up and his face changed slightly.
He quickly moved his feet to dodge and waved his sword to block. He was unscathed. After all, he had reached the First Heaven of Qi Cultivation, which was better than the First Heaven of Qi Cultivation alone. His use of power was also much better than the others. Facing the siege of five people, he was at ease.
Under another fatal Sword Light, blood splattered. Chu Mu pierced the heart of the third person.
Yang Xuan paled at this sight. He slapped his palm against the edge of the wooden bridge and leaped up, unsheathing his sword. His sword gleamed with a fierce light as it streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning.
Yang Xuan's sword was more threatening to Chu Mu than the previous seven people combined.
This sword was extremely fast. There was even lightning flickering on the sword. It was the power of lightning.
With the power of lightning and sword intent, the sword was extremely fast. In an instant, it pierced towards Chu Mu like a bolt of lightning.
Chu Mu's hair stood on end. He quickly retreated and slashed out with his sword. At the same time, the other four people cooperated with Yang Xuan to block Chu Mu's escape route.
The two swords collided. Under the huge force, Yang Xuan trembled in the air and fell to the ground. Chu Mu also took two steps back. The four swords approached. He quickly moved his feet and twisted his body to dodge, but a sword still slashed his back. It was instantly torn apart and blood flowed out.
Yang Xuan, who was ranked third, was indeed very powerful.
After landing, Yang Xuan stomped his feet and his strength exploded. With the support of his inner Qi, the speed of his sword increased. It turned into a bolt of lightning and attacked again. The other four people also attacked with all their strength. They cooperated with Yang Xuan to block all of Chu Mu's escape routes.
"Attack!" Lin Yi shouted. He unsheathed his sword without hesitation and rushed out. Jiang Fan and Lin Haichao followed closely behind. Sword Light burst out.
Humans were intelligent and knew how to cooperate better. After all, virtual beasts could not compare to humans.
Chu Mu had nowhere to dodge. He abruptly rushed forward and slashed his sword towards Yang Xuan. Behind him, four sword lights followed. Lin Yi and the other two's sword lights also rushed towards the four people.
They wanted to kill Chu Mu but did not want to be killed. The four people quickly withdrew their swords, turned around, and attacked Lin Yi and the other two.
After the threat behind him disappeared, Chu Mu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The Sword Light became even fiercer.
Yang Xuan's swordsmanship was indeed very powerful. His use of power was also much better than Qiu Minglei's. However, compared to Chu Mu, there was still a clear gap.
Chu Mu and Yang Xuan were both at the First Heavenly Layer of Qi Cultivation. They had both mastered the Elementary Level of Sword Will and the Power of Heaven and Earth. There was no difference in power. What they competed in was their attainments in swordsmanship, their use of power, and their grasp of timing.
As a swordsman, Chu Mu's swordsmanship had become an instinct. He had a clear advantage in this aspect.
Yang Xuan quickly discovered that his counterattacks were becoming fewer and fewer. He was constantly dodging and blocking. His opponent's sword was like a torrential rain, attacking him from every angle without stopping. Furthermore, each sword contained a terrifying sharpness. There was also a shockwave that caused his sword-wielding hand to gradually turn numb.
The two figures fought fiercely on the wooden bridge. Their swords collided, causing countless sparks to fly. The crisp sounds were ear-piercing.
Yang Xuan was constantly retreating, while Chu Mu was constantly attacking.
Yang Xuan's expression was unsightly. Chu Mu's strength had completely exceeded his expectations. He was at a disadvantage, and it was difficult for him to counterattack. Yang Xuan wanted to retreat, but Chu Mu's attacks were too fast. He did not have the chance to escape.
"Chu Mu, let's forget about this today. In the future, we'll mind our own business," said Yang Xuan. "Otherwise, Night Underworld Hall won't rest until you're dead."
If Yang Xuan had only said the first part, Chu Mu might have considered letting Yang Xuan go. After all, his goal wasn't to fight with Night Underworld Hall. However, Yang Xuan's last words had infuriated Chu Mu.
His sword slashed down, and with a twist of his wrist, the sword flipped over and knocked Yang Xuan's sword aside. Then, it coiled up, leaving Yang Xuan's chest wide open. With a bang, accompanied by the sound of bones shattering, Yang Xuan uncontrollably took a few steps back. What greeted him was a terrifying golden Sword Light that seemed capable of cleaving apart mountains.
With a puchi, blood splattered. Half of Yang Xuan's body had been cut in half.
Yang Xuan's eyes widened as he stared fixedly at Chu Mu. Then, he fell backward, dead.
On the other side, three of the four people fighting Lin Yi's group had also been killed. Only Qiu Minglei had managed to escape. Unfortunately, when he rushed in Chu Mu's direction, what greeted him was a sharp Sword Light. Behind the Sword Light was a pair of cold eyes.
