At night, the Dark Night Tribe was brightly lit, which seemed to set off the stars in the sky.
After storing food, Chu Mu didn't leave the Dark Night Tribe immediately. Instead, he went back to his cabin and sat cross-legged on his bed. He calmed his mind and cleared his mind, and started to meditate on the Eight Forces of Zhen Wu.
The Eight Forces of Zhen Wu had a general principle and eight mnemonics combined with eight postures. It could be practiced to the Eight Levels of Qi, which was amazing.
Starting from the general principle, he carefully meditated on each word and sentence, and then combined them to meditate on them together. He didn't miss a single detail.
The silence of the night gradually faded, and the day came. Chu Mu was still meditating. When the day faded, the night came again, and he was still meditating.
It wasn't until the third day that Chu Mu opened his eyes. He had finally finished meditating. The Eight Forces of Zhen Wu were complete and could be practiced.
It took him two days. During these two days, many people's talent points had increased. Although Chu Mu was still at the top of the Galaxy Genius List, he was surpassed by Yang Zhantian and Lian Hongyun on the Heaven Ascension List and fell to the fifth place.
But Chu Mu thought it was worth it. The Eight Forces of Zhen Wu would be his main cultivation method for a long time to come.
After meditating, Chu Mu started to practice.
The Eight Forces of Zhen Wu was an eighth-level cultivation method. It could be practiced to the Eight Levels of Heaven. In theory, one force corresponded to one level of heaven, but there was no requirement that it should correspond completely. For example, Chu Mu was now at the Four Levels of Heaven, but there was no requirement that he could only practice the fourth force.
Starting from the first force, Chu Mu stood in the cabin. He lifted one foot and tiptoed on the ground. He constantly adjusted his subtle movements. This posture seemed simple, but it was actually mysterious. It contained dozens of subtle changes. These changes were difficult to be seen by the naked eye, but they had to be done properly.
The first force was called Golden Rooster Standing on One Leg.
To practice the Eight Forces of True Martial Arts, one had to start from the first force and lay a good foundation.
Chu Mu's current cultivation was at the Fourth Celestial Layer, so it was not difficult for him to grasp the first form. He quickly completed the adjustment and allowed the energy to flow within his body. A unique aura emerged from his body, as if he was a golden rooster standing alone, looking down on a flock of chickens with disdain.
After finishing the cultivation of the first form, he immediately began the cultivation of the second form. The second form was called Moving Like a Rabbit. As the name implied, it was like a rabbit running out in an instant. However, the posture was fixed and couldn't run. It could only make slight adjustments to the posture to create a kind of aura, a kind of aura like a rabbit running out.
Third force … Fourth force …
The Fourth Stage corresponded to Chu Mu's current Fourth Heaven cultivation base. Therefore, the feeling of cultivating it was very obvious, but it was still not enough.
Fifth Force!
The Fifth Force was called Ferocious Tiger Descending the Mountain. It was like a ferocious tiger that had awakened and was about to run down from the mountain. In a flash, the aura was boundless.
Originally, with Chu Mu's current cultivation, it was not easy to master the Fifth Force. However, he had fully understood the essence of Ferocious Tiger Descending the Mountain when he fought with the Earth-splitting Tiger King and the Earth-splitting Tiger King. Therefore, he created the Level Four footwork, War Tiger Steps. Later, he obtained the Tiger King's Battle Skill, which focused on aura.
Therefore, Chu Mu quickly mastered the Fifth Force of the Eight Forces of True Martial Arts, Ferocious Tiger Descending the Mountain. The time it took was about the same as the time it took to master the Second Force. However, the difficulty of the Fifth Force was tens of times or even hundreds of times more difficult than the Second Force.
The Fifth Force corresponded to the Fifth Heaven. When cultivating with the Fifth Force, the feeling was very obvious. A hot flow was divided into two paths, one to refine the body and the other to refine the Internal Qi. The effect was obvious. However, Chu Mu felt that it was still not enough. He needed to be stronger. Therefore, after thoroughly mastering the Fifth Force, he began to work on the Sixth Force.
With the First Five Forces as a foundation, Chu Mu tried again and again. It took him a total of five days to master the Sixth Force.
At this time, his ranking on the Heaven Ascension List had dropped again. He had fallen to the eleventh place and had fallen out of the top ten.
Chu Mu's drop in ranking naturally made many people happy and anxious. However, there was no way to interfere. They could only hope that Chu Mu would quickly improve.
On the Galaxy Genius List, Beichen Lie, who was ranked second, had his talent points increasing rapidly. He was quickly approaching Chu Mu and seemed to be showing signs of surpassing him in one fell swoop. Chen Gang, who had lost thousands of talent points, not only recovered, but also increased a lot. He was almost comparable to Beichen Lie.
The competition was extremely fierce.
The effect of the Sixth Force was very strong. It felt as if he was continuously absorbing and refining Level Four Void Qi.
In just one day, Chu Mu's body cultivation had reached the peak of the Fourth Heavenly Layer Ninth Level. Then, he began to improve his Qi cultivation.
Although each strand of Level Four Void Qi could only increase Chu Mu's strength by about 100 kilograms, the continuous absorption and refinement of the Void Qi still had an amazing effect.
After another two days, Chu Mu's Qi cultivation had also reached the peak of the Fourth Heavenly Layer Ninth Level.
Ten days had passed since he had returned to the Dark Night Tribe. In these ten days, his ranking on the Heaven Ascension List had constantly dropped. He had fallen from the third place to the current 28th place. On the Galaxy Genius List, Beichen Lie's talent points had reached 80,000. He was only 1,000 points away from Chu Mu.
It seemed that Chu Mu's position on the Galaxy Genius List would be lost soon.
Chu Mu was very clear about the changes in the rankings on the two lists. However, he was not panicked at all.
After strolling around the Dark Night Tribe, he returned to his wooden house. He sat cross-legged on his bed and regulated his breathing. When his essence, qi, and spirit reached the peak, he got out of bed and began to move his body.
Now, he had completely mastered the Sixth Force of the Eight Forces of True Martial. However, the Seventh Force was a hundred times more difficult than the Sixth Force. It was like the huge gap between the Seventh Heavenly Layer and the Sixth Heavenly Layer. It was the gap between the Intermediate Level and the Advanced Level. Therefore, he had reached a bottleneck and could not master the Seventh Force in a short time.
Otherwise, the effect of the Seventh Force would definitely be many times better than the Sixth Force.
He assumed the Sixth Force. The Sixth Force was called the Devil Ape Propping Up the Sky Force.
He propped up his arms as if he were holding up the sky. His feet stepped on the ground. Suddenly, his body became towering and his momentum became majestic. He was indomitable.
A tyrannical power was born, gathered, and surged in his body.
The heat flow surged. It was as if he was in the middle of a vast ocean. Countless waves washed over him continuously.
After maintaining this posture for an hour, Chu Mu began to feel that his internal Qi was purifying and growing slightly. His physique was also strengthening little by little. His strength was increasing little by little. He had reached a higher level.
Time passed by little by little.
Chu Mu was also improving little by little.
…
"I feel that it won't be long before I can complete the creation of this sword skill. At that time, I will gain thousands of genius points and surpass Chu Mu in one fell swoop." Beichen Lie was secretly delighted. He had also changed the way he addressed Chu Mu from Chu Mu to Chu Mu.
Because, very soon, this honor would be replaced by him.
…
Chu Mu's body trembled, and an extremely tyrannical power instantly shot out from his body. The two waves transformed into a terrifying and incorporeal power that slammed into the wooden house's walls, causing the wooden house to almost crumble.
A wave of energy appeared, blocking the impact and protecting the wooden house, preventing it from causing too much of a commotion.
However, the sound of the force hitting the wooden house could not be blocked. It spread out into sound waves, startling the people passing by. They all looked at Chu Mu's wooden house, not knowing what had happened.
"Physique cultivation has broken through to the Fifth Heavenly Layer. You have gained 16,000 genius points."
"Qi cultivation has broken through to the Fifth Heavenly Layer. You have gained 16,000 genius points."
The fleeting voice sounded almost simultaneously.
Breaking through to the Fourth Heavenly Layer gave him 8,000 genius points. Naturally, the Fifth Heavenly Layer gave him 16,000 genius points.
Physique cultivation and Qi cultivation each gave him 16,000 points, so he had a total of 32,000 points.
In an instant, Chu Mu's genius points increased from 81,000 points to 113,000 points.
"What's going on?" Beichen Lie was dumbfounded. His sword art was about to be completed. As long as it was completed, he would get 4,000 genius points, surpassing Chu Mu. But now, Chu Mu's genius points had increased by 32,000 points, leaving him far behind again.
"Thirty-two thousand points … Qi Cultivation … Sixteen thousand Fifth Layer …" Beichen Lie thought for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile. He let out a heartfelt sigh. "As expected of Exalted Chu. So the reason he's been so quiet these days is because he wants to break through even more. He's still ahead of me."
At this time, Beichen Lie's cultivation had reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer. Chu Mu had broken through to the Fifth Heavenly Layer. The gap between them was huge.
With 32,000 genius points, Chu Mu's ranking on the Heaven Ascension List also began to rise.
The shining ranking was like a sharp sword that pierced through the sky, cutting through all obstacles like a hot knife through butter. It was unstoppable.
In an instant, he had rushed into the top ten. The commotion immediately attracted the attention of many people.
He did not stop there after entering the top ten. He continued to rush up, surpassing one rank after another and leaving them behind.
Charge! Charge!
Chu Mu's ranking returned to third place once again.
113000 genius points!
Gu Luankong, who was in first place, had 122000 genius points. Qin Aoxian, who was in second place, had 118000 genius points. Yang Zhantian, who was in fourth place, had 110000 genius points.
With the ups and downs, everyone's emotions also fluctuated with the ups and downs.
"What the hell is this kid doing?" An elder of the Main Divine Hall heaved a sigh of relief and pretended to be angry.
"If you do it a few more times, this old man's heart will explode from fright," another elder said. The other elders nodded their heads in agreement, as if they felt the same way.
They placed too much importance on Chu Mu. They hoped that he could remain in the top three. They did not expect to advance further. They only hoped that he would not fall.
Unfortunately, Chu Mu did not know what they were thinking. But even if he knew, he would not care. He had his own path and his own way. He would not be influenced.
