In the depths of the wilderness, Chen Gang was slightly startled. He muttered to himself, "What happened to Junior Brother Yang? Why did he lose a thousand genius points and drop his ranking? "
Zhu Tiantong was also astonished. His face sank. Yang Xuan's ranking might have dropped because someone else had comprehended something and obtained genius points, thus surpassing him. However, the fact that he had 1,000 points less could only mean one thing: Yang Xuan had died once.
Yang Xuan was at the First Heavenly Layer. Every time he died, his Qi Cultivation or Physique Cultivation points would be randomly dropped. If he fell below the First Heavenly Layer, the one thousand genius points he received would naturally be deducted. He would have to advance to the First Heavenly Layer to gain more.
If Yang Xuan had been killed by a Void Beast, there would be nothing to say. However, if Yang Xuan had been killed by someone else, this grudge must be avenged. No matter who it was, anyone who dared to kill a member of the Dark Night Hall had to be prepared for the Dark Night Hall's revenge.
Yang Xuan and Qiu Minglei did not inform Chen Gang and Zhu Tiantong of their actions.
…
"Look, Senior Brother Chu's ranking has risen to fourth."
Yang Xuan's ranking dropped several places in an instant. Under the Dark Night Tribe's Resurrection Stele, Yang Xuan, Qiu Minglei, and the others who had been resurrected all had gloomy expressions. Even their eyes were bloodshot.
The hatred in their hearts could not be washed away by the torrential river.
It was obvious that this matter would not be settled so easily.
Chu Mu also knew that this matter would not be settled so easily. However, he was not afraid.
Originally, he had thought that death would be the end of it. Only now did he know that one of the two Celestial Layers of Qi and Body Tempering had dropped by one Celestial Layer. Thinking about it, if one's Qi and Body Tempering had dropped by one Celestial Layer, the price would be too great.
No matter which Yang Xuan's Qi and Body Tempering had dropped, it would take some time for him to recover. It would be very difficult for him to catch up.
"Junior Brother Chu, let's hunt a Void Beast together?" Lin Yi invited. The battle just now had made their eyes shine. Chu Mu was very strong.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin, Junior Brother Jiang. However, I still prefer to travel alone." Chu Mu said.
"Alright then. I hope to see Junior Brother Chu return to the top." Lin Yi said with a smile.
After crossing the wooden bridge and entering the wilderness, the group split up. Chu Mu ran at full speed, covering more than a meter with each step. His speed was extremely high, and his legs seemed to have turned into wheels. Like a wild horse, he ran deep into the wilderness and headed in the direction of the Wolf Valley.
As soon as he entered the Wolf Valley, Chu Mu stopped and carefully looked around. He discovered that there were traces of other people.
"Seven …" Chu Mu muttered to himself as he headed in different directions. If he encountered others, there might be unnecessary conflicts.
In the Wolf Valley, there were many Red Eyed Wolves. Not long after, Chu Mu killed three Red Eyed Wolves with his sword and obtained three strands of Rank 1 Ethereal Qi. After absorbing the Ethereal Qi, he realized that the effects of the Ethereal Qi were greatly reduced. It was only one-tenth of what it was before.
In other words, absorbing a strand of Level One Illusory Qi could only increase one's strength by 50 kilograms. If one were to absorb Level One Illusory Qi to cultivate, one would need at least 100 strands of Level One Illusory Qi to advance from the First Heaven to the Second Heaven.
Cultivating both qi and Level One Illusory Qi meant that one would need at least 200 strands of Level One Illusory Qi.
No wonder it was said that cultivating both qi and Level One Illusory Qi would consume more resources.
This was not a good news. The good news was that killing the Red Eyed Wolves this time was much easier. He could kill one with a casual swing of his sword. Even if he was surrounded by ten Red Eyed Wolves, he could still kill them easily. It was completely different from yesterday.
Chu Mu was not complacent. Instead, he worked even harder and tried his best to study how to kill the Red Eyed Wolves in a more direct, faster, and sharper manner.
When he killed the eighteenth Red Eyed Wolf, he encountered another Red Eyed Battle Wolf.
The incomparably ferocious Crimson-eyed Battle Wolves led a group of lackeys and attacked from different angles.
"Good timing." Chu Mu said excitedly. His right hand shook and the black iron sword vibrated. Golden light flowed as he stabbed out with his sword.
The sharp sword exploded with power and pierced through the forehead of a Red Eyed Wolf, easily breaking its skull. It was as weak as tofu. A terrifying pale golden Qi pierced through the Red Eyed Wolf's body and shot out from its butt.
This sword did not use the power of vibration. It was only supported by the sword intent and the power of gold.
With this sword, Chu Mu vaguely caught onto something.
His figure moved swiftly, avoiding the sharp claws of the Red Eyed Battle Wolf. He waved his sword and killed one Red Eyed Wolf after another.
Cultivating both qi and Level One Celestial Layer allowed Chu Mu to face the Red Eyed Battle Wolf with ease. Not long after, the Red Eyed Battle Wolf's brothers were all dead, leaving it alone to face Chu Mu.
Chu Mu was looking forward to it. Yesterday, he fought the Red Eyed Battle Wolf with great difficulty. He wondered what would happen today.
With a sudden leap, he pounced forward. His sharp wolf claws flickered with a cold glint, but his trajectory was clearly visible. Chu Mu didn't retreat, but instead advanced. He charged forward, and his black iron sword pierced forward like a meteor breaking through the moon.
The golden light pierced through the air. The sword was like a flying immortal.
The Red Eyed Battle Wolf waved its claws. The claws broke through the air and grabbed at the golden sword light. An ear-piercing sound exploded and sparks flew. The Red Eyed Battle Wolf's other claw grabbed from the side. It seemed to tear a few marks in the air, causing Chu Mu's face to hurt.
Slashing with his sword, they collided again. Sparks flew as he used the force to spring up and thrust out his sword.
The sword intent and the power of gold burst out in an instant. The sword's speed increased rapidly. The power condensed at the tip of the sword. It was incomparably sharp, as if it could pierce through the air.
That sharp light caused the Red Eyed Battle Wolf's scarlet eyes to reveal a trace of fear.
This sword was too fast. There was no way to dodge.
Chu Mu only felt that the sword in his hand had pierced something hard. With a little more force, the sharp light condensed at the tip of the sword broke through the hard object.
The Red Eyed Battle Wolf's body trembled and it let out a wail. Its forehead was cut open by the sword. The sword went straight through its head. A terrifying power exploded in its body, shattering its internal organs.
Pulling out the sword, the sound of the sword rubbing against the bones was obscure. Blood spurted out from the sword like a fountain.
The scarlet eyes quickly dimmed. Its body fell to the ground, twitching a few times before it died.
"There's actually no notification. It seems that this sword is not considered a sword art." Chu Mu thought.
After comprehending the sword intent and the power of gold, Chu Mu came up with an idea. Could he also obtain talent points if he created his own sword art? Therefore, he integrated his own attainments in sword arts and integrated his own power. In battle, he consciously guided the power to explode out, causing greater destruction than usual.
Of course, doing so would consume more power than usual. It would be at least several times more, maybe even more than ten times more.
It already had a shape. As long as he continued to work hard, Chu Mu believed that he would be able to create a sword art to increase his strength.
This Red Eyed Battle Wolf gave Chu Mu six strands of Rank 1 Illusory Qi. However, there was nothing else. This time, Chu Mu obtained a total of twelve strands of Rank 1 Illusory Qi. It had only been four hours since he entered the Wolf Valley, but he had already obtained thirty strands of Rank 1 Illusory Qi.
Chu Mu absorbed all thirty strands of Rank 1 Illusory Qi. His physique strengthened once again. His strength reached thirteen thousand jin, even stronger.
Using battle to nurture battle!
"Now, even the Red Eyed Battle Wolf could not withstand three strikes from me. I wonder how strong the Red Eyed Wolf King is?" Chu Mu thought to himself. His sharp gaze looked towards the depths of the Wolf Valley. There might be a Red Eyed Wolf King there.
Striding forward, he quickly headed towards the depths of the Wolf Valley, leaving behind a ground full of wolf corpses.
The deeper he went into the Wolf Valley, the more Red Eyed Wolves he encountered. They pounced on him without fear of death, but all of them died under Chu Mu's sword. Chu Mu obtained another twenty strands of Rank 1 Illusory Qi. His physique strengthened once again, and his strength reached fifteen thousand jin.
He planned to first reach the peak of the First Celestial Layer of Body Cultivation, then increase his Qi Cultivation, and then breakthrough to the Second Celestial Layer. The breakthrough to the Second Celestial Layer would definitely be more difficult than the First Celestial Layer.
He encountered the third Red Eyed Battle Wolf.
As soon as the Red Eyed Battle Wolf appeared, Chu Mu dashed towards it. His footsteps were fast, and his speed was swift. Like a gust of wind, he raised his black iron sword. The Sword Light was dazzling, and then it was restrained. Immediately after, the power passed through the tip of the sword, turning into a golden light, piercing through the void.
Before the Red Eyed Battle Wolf could even show its might, its forehead was pierced through. The hole went through its head, straight to its neck. The power exploded, exploding into its body, shattering its internal organs.
The Red Eyed Battle Wolf's body trembled violently, and fell to the ground. It struggled and twitched a few times before dying.
Four strands of First Grade Void Qi rose from the Red Eyed Battle Wolf's corpse. Among the Red Eyed Battle Wolves that Chu Mu had killed, his harvest was the least.
However, four strands of First Grade Void Qi were better than nothing.
With a roll, he directly absorbed them and quickly digested them, increasing his strength by another four hundred jin.
Suddenly, a wolf howl sounded from the depths of the Wolf Valley. Like a storm, it rolled and spread, rushing in all directions. The momentum was astonishing, containing a terrifying power, as if it was a king above the common people. It made all the hair on Chu Mu's body stand on end.
"It's the Wolf King …" Chu Mu raised his head, looking towards the direction of the sound. He was secretly excited.
… …
"Is that the sound of a Red Eyed Wolf?"
"It's definitely not an ordinary Red Eyed Wolf, nor is it an elite Red Eyed Wolf. It's very likely to be the King of the Red Eyed Wolves."
The seven people who had entered the Wolf Valley earlier than Chu Mu trembled when they heard the sound. Their faces changed as they thought of something, and their faces were filled with excitement.
Each of the seven of them had a cultivation base of the First Heavenly Layer, and two of them had even reached the First Heavenly Layer.
They had accidentally discovered the Wolf Valley and entered it. They had encountered many Red Eyed Wolves. The seven of them had worked together to hunt them down, continuously obtaining Void Qi. Each of them had obtained great benefits, and their strength had increased.
Not long ago, the seven of them had worked together to kill a Red Eyed Battle Wolf. Not only had they obtained six strands of First Grade Void Qi, but they had also obtained a basic movement technique. Now that they had heard the sound of the Wolf King, they were even more surprised. Killing the Wolf King would definitely bring them great rewards.
The seven of them immediately decided to enter the Wolf Valley to find the Red Eyed Wolf King and kill it.
At the same time, Chu Mu had also decided to enter the Wolf Valley to find the Red Eyed Wolf King. He wanted to see how strong the Red Eyed Wolf King was before deciding whether to hunt it down.
