The Galaxy Genius Ranking!
Chu Mu was at the top of the list with 38000 points. The second was Beichen Lie with 24000 points. The third was Chen Gang with 24000 points. The third was Chen Gang with 24000 points.
Beichen Lie and Chen Gang were evenly matched in their first fight. They were also evenly matched in the competition for the Galaxy Genius Ranking. Sometimes, Chen Gang would be ranked higher, and sometimes, Beichen Lie would be ranked higher. No matter how they switched positions, they still could not catch up to Chu Mu.
Zhu Tiantong, who was pushed to the fourth place, was very depressed. He, who was originally at the top of the list, had his ranking dropped again and again. Now, he had fallen to the fourth place, and there was a gap of a few thousand talent points between him and the second and third place. Unfortunately, he did not obtain any fortuitous encounter.
Zhu Tiantong made up his mind to leave the team and act alone.
Chu Mu, who ranked third on the Galaxy Genius Ranking and Heaven Ascension Ranking, had become the pride of the Five Elements Sword Sect. He was the symbol and representative. Xiang Ye, one of the vice sect masters of the Dark Night Sword Sect, felt as though his face had been slapped swollen. He left the Five Elements Sword Sect, feeling too ashamed to stay.
Chen Gang and Beichen Lie hunted Rank-3 Void Beasts to improve themselves. At the same time, they were looking for Chu Mu, intending to kill Chu Mu.
However, they did not know that Chu Mu was in the depths of Tiger Stream.
…
Chu Mu rushed out of the Earth-shattering Tiger King's territory as fast as he could. He was safe now.
The Earth-shattering Tiger King had its own territory, and they were very territorial. As long as one did not enter their territory, they would not care. Therefore, after escaping from the Earth-shattering Tiger King's territory, it gave up on chasing after Chu Mu.
He spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale, and his chest was swollen. There was a burning pain, and the muscles in his legs felt like they were being torn apart. He was injured, both internally and externally. Fortunately, it was not serious.
After adjusting his breathing, he sat down cross-legged and used the Advanced Qi Training Technique to heal his injuries.
His physique also used its self-healing ability, healing the slightly torn muscles in his legs little by little.
After the treatment, Chu Mu filled his stomach. Thinking back to what had happened just now, he still felt terrified. The Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King's strength had completely exceeded his expectations.
Originally, he had made a guess based on the increase in strength of the Crimson-eyed Wolves and Ironback Wolves. He had thought that with his current strength, which allowed him to kill the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King with a single slash, he should be able to contend with or even kill the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King. However, the reality was the complete opposite. He had almost been killed instantly.
If not for the fact that he had coincidentally managed to raise his Sword Intent from the beginner level to the initial level, as well as the fact that he had put in a lot of effort to comprehend it, as well as his final struggle, he would have been killed by the Earth Splitting Battle Tiger King's terrifying aura.
There was nothing he could do about it. The aura of the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King was simply too frightening. It was at least ten times stronger than the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King. Furthermore, it was charging down from the mountain, so with the amplification effect, it was even more tyrannical.
The beginner's Sword Will shattered, the blood coagulated, the limbs stiffened, and it was difficult to move. Even the mind was paralyzed, unable to move, and unable to react.
Fortunately, at the crucial moment, his Sword Will had broken through to the initial level and resisted the aura of the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King. His mind recovered, and so did his body. Thus, he was able to dodge the attack by a hair's breadth.
Just as he steadied himself, and before he could do anything else, the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King's attack was upon him. With a terrifying swing of its tail, Chu Mu could not dodge at all. He could only take the attack head-on.
Fortunately, he had the Ironback Armor, the Wolf Shadow Armor, and the crossed swords to block the attack. Under these three layers of defense, the Ironback Armor was shattered, but he still suffered some minor internal injuries. This was enough to show how powerful that swing was.
This made Chu Mu realize that with his current strength, he could not contend with the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King at all. The Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King had not used its beast strength, nor did it use any beast techniques. He made a prompt decision to retreat.
He was prepared to die. Fortunately, the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King had a strong sense of territory.
"Its strength is much stronger than mine, and its speed is also faster than mine. Its aura is terrifying. It is difficult to find a chance to counterattack." After thinking for a while, Chu Mu muttered to himself, "The Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King's strength is probably comparable to that of an ordinary Rank 4 beast king."
Comparable to an ordinary Rank 4 beast king? This was Chu Mu's guess. He had not seen a Rank 4 beast before, so he was not sure. However, a Rank 4 beast was a mid-level beast, and a Rank 3 beast was a low-level beast. Not only was there a difference of one grade, there was also a difference of one level.
This was like the difference between the Third and Fourth Heavenly Layers. Other than the difference in strength, there were also differences in other aspects.
"I have to continue to improve and become stronger. Only then will I be able to fight the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King."
Chu Mu made up his mind. He had to find other Earth-shattering Battle Tigers in Tiger Stream and increase his strength as much as possible. It would be best if he could increase his cultivation to the peak of the Third Heavenly Layer of Qi Cultivation. Only then would he be able to grasp more techniques and kill the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger King.
He had to prepare for battle with all his strength to kill the Tiger King.
Right now, his cultivation was at the third level of the Third Heavenly Layer of Body Transformation and the zeroth level of the Third Heavenly Layer of Qi Cultivation. Within the Third Heavenly Layer, there was still a lot of room for improvement.
He had mastered three sword techniques. The Rank 2 Sword Technique Break and the Rank 2 Sword Technique Double Annihilation Flame. When he used the Rank 3 Sword Technique Night Meteor, because his sword intent had reached the small success stage, the power of these three sword techniques had increased significantly.
His footwork was the Rank 4 Battle Tiger Steps, which surpassed high-grade footwork. It could condense one's aura and suppress one's attacks.
Tidying up, cultivating, and then sitting down cross-legged to comprehend.
The Earth-shattering Battle Tiger was an earth-attributed beast. The beast techniques they grasped were earth-attributed and could cause the earth to tremble.
Within Tiger Stream, the fluctuations of the power of earth were the clearest and strongest.
Chu Mu had fought with the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger many times, and his understanding of the power of earth had gradually deepened. This time, he planned to comprehend the power of earth in one go.
Closing his eyes, he held his breath and concentrated, concentrating his energy and comprehending.
The dense aura of the power of earth drifted in the air, aiding Xiao Chen in his comprehension. In his mind, the scene of the Earth-shattering Battle Tiger activating its beast techniques flashed again and again. It felt like the trembling of the earth came from below him.
Originally, the more one comprehended the power of the world, the harder it was. However, if there were specific conditions, it could be improved significantly, allowing one to comprehend it faster.
Environment, experience, accumulation, sudden inspiration, and many other factors were indispensable.
Chu Mu only felt that his body seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. Outside, specks of brown floated and gathered. It was as if the shadows of mountains were compressed and added to his body, making him feel heavy.
Sitting on the ground, Xiao Chen felt like he was connected to the earth, communicating with it. He could feel its movement and its sturdiness.
Sturdiness and sturdiness carried all things.
All sorts of comprehensions appeared in Xiao Chen's mind. As he sorted them out, his thoughts became clearer. In his Spiritual World, a strand of brown energy slowly condensed.
"You comprehended the rudimentary power of earth. Obtained one thousand genius points."
One thousand genius points was not a lot for now. However, it was a good start.
His genius points had reached 39000.
While comprehending the power of earth, Chu Mu's exhausted energy was slowly recovering. After he woke up, his essence, Qi, and spirit had all recovered to their peak.
The hunt continued day and night.
The Earth Splitting Battle Tiger suffered a calamity. It was targeted by Chu Mu one by one. It was not killed by Chu Mu and absorbed the void energy to increase its strength. Instead, before it was killed by Chu Mu, it would be toyed with by Chu Mu and forced to use its full strength. This would facilitate Chu Mu's comprehension of the Battle Tiger Step and aura.
Chu Mu was also trying to see if he could imbue earth energy and other energies into his sword to attack. However, the difficulty was several times higher than imbuing fire energy and metal energy at the same time. It was impossible for him to do it in a short period of time.
Even with Chu Mu's current cultivation, he was unable to use the power of vibrating sword intent, metal, and fire for a long time. The power was stronger than a Rank 1 sword technique and was close to a Rank 2 sword technique. The energy consumption was quite obvious.
If he added another power of earth, the power would be greater than a Rank 2 sword technique. The energy consumption would undoubtedly increase.
In addition to these, Chu Mu also consciously trained his footwork. The Battle Tiger Steps increased the condensed aura and used it to suppress others. However, when facing an opponent with a stronger aura, the effect was not obvious. Furthermore, it could only be used in the beginning. If he was in a battle, the Battle Tiger Steps would not be able to be used. Chu Mu felt that he needed a new footwork, one that was suitable for dodging and moving nimbly in close combat.
After the battle with the Earth-splitting Battle Tiger, some ideas gradually appeared in his mind. However, he still needed more comprehension to become clear. Only then would his inspiration burst forth.
The Azure Sky Virtual World seemed to have the ability to increase the comprehension ability of the geniuses. It was as if it could shorten the time needed to comprehend a sword technique in the outside world. It might take a few years or even longer to comprehend a sword technique in the outside world. But in here, the time was shortened by hundreds of times.
Everyone was buffed in the same proportion, so it was fair. It was also because of this that Chu Mu was able to comprehend sword intent and the power of heaven and earth in less than ten days, and create his own sword technique and footwork.
Increase, increase, increase. When his body cultivation reached the seventh layer of the Third Sky of Qi Cultivation, he ran out of food. With the strength of the seventh layer of the Third Sky of Body Cultivation and the zeroth layer of the Third Sky of Qi Cultivation, he was still unable to contend with the Earth-splitting Battle Tiger King.
However, his food was already exhausted. Chu Mu had no choice but to temporarily leave Tiger Stream and return to the Dark Night Tribe to replenish his food and other supplies.
He left behind ten strands of third-grade void energy that he hadn't absorbed yet.
What was worth being happy about was that because the Scarlet Blood Sword had been constantly fighting and absorbing the blood essence of the Earth-splitting Battle Tiger King, it had been accumulating strength. It was showing signs of evolving once again.
He believed that when he challenged the Earth-splitting Battle Tiger King again, the Scarlet Blood Sword would have evolved once again and become a fourth-grade void spirit sword.
Turning his head back to look at the Tiger Stream, Chu Mu said to himself, "I will be back soon." Then, he took a step forward and started running at full speed.
Suddenly, a thought appeared in his mind. It would be great if he could master a movement skill. At least, it would be very useful during a long journey.
Then, he thought about it again. There were still many things that he needed to comprehend. He didn't have enough time and energy.
